Harry and Megs in LA

[RosesandIris]

Continuing on from the last thread.

Speculation time - do you think Trump will agree to give them Secret Service protection even though they are no longer entitled to it as ex-Royals?

At least the Covid outbreak has ensured no pap photos... well none since Barry returned the first time and they’ve managed a whole house removal. That must be pleasing for them

Shakespeare, of course, had a quote for it "Dost thou think because thou art virtuous, there shall be no more cakes and ale?"

Really fancy some cakes and ale now...

It’s an amazing coincidence, Grass

Harry’s mere presence is chasing paps away. ROAR!

I should imagine that lovely man will donate some of his own security detail, just to be not nasty nice.

After all, he and HaM get on like a house burning down.
Or whatever the phrase is...?

Cutting I’ve snorted my tea everywhere 😁

Trump, russian billionaire business magnates, and Barry.

Harry has given speeches on how “we all” must consider our emissions and sustainability in travel.

He gave a speech on an Italian beach at a summit about climate change-a summit he travelled to by private jet. (Addressing a bunch of millionaires and billionaires who also travelled there by private jet or yacht.)

The paps seems to have stayed away since the threat of suing from H&M

After the effects of COVID-19 on the US economy, both MM and Harry publicly criticizing Trump (he holds grudges), and this being an election year, if the US is not obligated to provide protection, it won’t.

H&M left Vancouver Island some time ago, evident when security gates were removed from the property. That’s why there are no paparazzi photos, although most paparazzi photos are staged.

Not really. Heads of states, governments etc. decisions impact my life.

Who is the head of state in the UK? The decision to have a royal family is a part of all of that you mention and of everyone’s life. They are not there just to wear pretty frocks ...or, are they? How much power is embodied in them, how much decision making they retain, which ‘causes’ (political positions) they support, what the PM says to the queen and vice versa at their weekly meetings, sovereignty, how much of a decision making separation there is between parliament and head of state...do you know who embodies these roles, how and why? How the head of state and head of government interact?

Morning penguins! Hope everyone is feeling ok and not sleep deprived from losing an hour.

Sussex in answer to your question, Charles seems to be doing fine, he's been feeding the red squirrels that come to his door. Pic in the Fail. I don't want him to be ill, far from it, but I'm not sure I welcome the reassuring update given lots of people who have caught the virus are feeling pretty shit right now.

Terribly sad item on the news the other day of a 70+ year old man who went out for food after seven days without any because he was self isolating due to symptoms. He was helped by a nurse whose car he crashed into but later died in hospital. These are the people I worry about.

Catherine

I am perfectly capable of both focusing on the important stuff and paying attention to other things.

Today I have responded to several threads on MN with varying degrees of serious to lighthearted things, dealt with my mother's benefit evidence concerns and printed off evidence for her, watched an instructional video on how to deal with scars on skin, written to my local MP about the very serious concern of Single parents and other disadvantaged women without childcare being denied the right to shop with kids in tow. Spent nearly 2 hours trying to bolster up my sister who is dealing with directly with covid patients (she needs to off-load after every shift, it's a kind of agreement we have, it stresses me out but it's the little I can do.)

Cleaned the bathroom and all the doors, and all whilst suffering painful chest, high temperature, banging headache and achy limbs from Covid 19.

So I don't need to lectured to thanks. I'm an eclectic wonderwoman. Just like a great many women.

Catherine you and your sister are amazing. Best wishes to both of you, and all the lovely Penguins on here who keep us sane and balanced despite those who come on telling us to allow wealthy over-privileged people to enjoy their life styles, at our expense, in peace.

So the same as William then.

He also states : "I’ve certainly felt that – but I’ve learned that we cannot dismiss the idea of trying to do something, just because we can’t do everything. We can all do better. And while no one is perfect. We are all responsible for our own individual impact; the question is what we do to balance it out.

Are these speeches on the official royal site like the one you posted on William? Do you have a transcript of the Google speech ?
Harry was with a group of Silicon Valley billionaires whohave the biggest collection of private jets all gathered in one place. There was nothing wrong with his message.

I think there was a lot wrong with that message, from Harry and the other attendees. But we can agree to disagree.

Don't really follow much with H&M, seems odd as I thought America was worse with CV?

Anyway, this is the life M always wanted, to be a top Hollywood star, and although she's got there via the royal route, it's what she's always wanted. She's a mediocre actress and only moderately attractive in Hollywood terms, so it wasn't going to happen through work.

Poor Harry is going to feel progressively more alienated as the superficial, meaningless life of Hollywood becomes his new normal. Initially he will love the more relaxed lifestyle but he doesn't need glamour, he's used to that, unlike M. What Harry needed was someone like Catherine who would keep him grounded and give him the family life he craves. Instead he has been pushed into a shallow, meaningless life where he will struggle to achieve the charity work he needs. I don't think this is right for his mental health.

So sad as everyone wished he had found the right woman.

Of course there was something wrong with lecturing people on climate change while taking a private jet to that forum.

It’s equally hypocritical for a bunch of rich people to gather at a forum on climate change while arriving via unsustainable travel. One commercial flight across the Atlantic generates more CO2 than dozens of entire countries, and is the equivalent of driving a car 800 days.

I linked texts to Harry’s speeches above.

Agree @winterlife it’s the tone deaf hypocrisy that does my head in. He’s use to grandeur, I wonder how he will feel with crass extravagance,

They will end up reality stars aka the Kardashians. Something like:

Wake Up To the Windsors
Mountbatten Down The Hatches
Maid In Malibu
Ex-Royal on the Beach

Sophie’s great isn’t she. Meghan was definitely busted.

What I wonder with all the moving is where is all Harry's stuff? He must have photos, private mementos of Diana and his time in the military- is it all boxed up at Frogmore?

Presumably they had their staff box it all up and send it to Canada and then to LA - suitably dettolled.

It may not even have been unpacked in Canada.

Mummy195 Have you considered starting a thread about your dislike for W & K? They are quite popular so I'm not sure if it would gain much traction, but this one's about H & M. I can see that you're a big fan of MM but I'm not sure criticism of Kate (and all other members of the RF, and all of the British press, and all of MM's family, and everyone on this thread) is necessary to elevate MM.

I agree about the condescension and hypocrisy from H & M, it's astonishing.

I would not be able to spend that much time and energy on vitriol of another human being - no matter how rich or privileged they are|

You're a veritable saint.
