Is there something seriously wrong with him?

The Palace wasn’t in a position to make them wait. Harry is a grown man in his thirties. He can marry whoever he wants!

I would think the gravy train would cease if they did a tell all.

Wow if that biography thing is true...

Tungsten! Ouch.
Princess Anne made a barbed comment too didn’t she ? Something about Meghan having a lot to say ?

Yes if it’s true , I think the one year review would be very interesting, to say the least.
I think the problem is that both of them are impulsive and don’t think before they act.
Also they don’t care what the fallout is so long as they get what they want.

I wonder if thats why they wouldn't postpone the court case, they need it to be over before the authorised biography comes out in August.

An interesting article about paparazzi in Malibu

I think MM's age would probably been an obstacle to them waiting.

Malibu ! Honestly. So much for wanting a quiet and private life.

They have never wanted a quiet and private life. They want a life where there is no criticism.

Under English law he neede the Queen's permission www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/2013/20/section/3/enacted

The Queen was never going to so that. It would have caused major ructions. We’re not living in the 1950’s any longer.

That makes sense

If it's true, I wonder if the book will pay more than PC's maintenance over the years. Surely playing a part in the development of a book which contains derogatory information on the royal family will result in them being cut off from Daddy's purse

Well that would be why the Mail offered to postpone the case then, not the virus if that's true!

I suppose M&H will postpone the book launch (assuming the story is true) until after the case, regardless of the outcome.

I haven't read the Mail article but would they cut off the hand that funds them? It's more likely to be their usual 'meeeeee' style, all about them and the reasons behind their decision. A source of funds for their foundation, perhaps?

Princess Anne made a barbed comment too didn’t she ? Something about Meghan having a lot to say ?

I hadn’t heard that one. It’s very Princess Anne, though.

Associated newspapers suggested yesterday’s hearing was postponed but it wouldn’t have been postponed until September. Meghan’s counsel said they didn’t want a postponement and the main case is expected to be heard later in 2020 or early 2021. So book or no book in August doesn’t make much difference to our court hearing dates.

They cannot seriously have colluded with a Tell All book?

Thanks BubblesBuddy thought it would be heard quicker than that

I wonder how the news about the biography got leaked, it seems like it will hurt their case given the comments that Scobie made when the letter was released in February, given that we know in February they were giving interviews to him and probably had actual knowledge when he made the comments about the letter

www.express.co.uk/news/royal/1086163/Meghan-Markle-letter-father-Thomas-Markle-letter-leaked-Kensington-Palace

"Omid Scobie, Royal contributor for American network ABC’s Good Morning America, believes Meghan had this in mind when she was writing the letter.

According to Mr Scobie, Meghan knew her letter would be leaked to the public via her father and used it as a chance to “set the record straight”.

The royal contributor said: “While the purpose of Meghan’s letter was very much to repair the relationship with the father, she knew in her heart of heart’s that this was going to be released to the papers.

“Thomas has a record of this. This is exactly the man she knows.

“So, many of those things in that letter were written with the public in mind. She very much wanted to set the record straight.”"

Wow Miri that’s rather messy.

They cannot seriously have colluded with a Tell All book?

Why not? His mum did. He probably thinks it’s a great idea. “Telling his truth” just like mum explained it to him 🤷🏽‍♀️

A tell all would be brilliant. Do you think they can get it published and printed before lockdown is lifted? I vividly remember reading the excerpts from the Andrew Morton book in the Times as an escape from uni revision a very long time ago!

Meghan is following a celebrity script rather than a royal family script. Tell all seems like a logical next move.

Strange that MM is taking MoS to court for printing a letter telling about her relationship with her father but at the same time she is in process of a tell all about relationship about her and royal family. She is consistent though lecturing the plebs not to fly whist she jets about as a hobby. One rule for Meg and everyone else must stick to the rules she sets.

The Queen clearly stated she wanted a private birthday this year. MM gets off skype with Queen and her pR agent publishes the Duke and Duchess of Suffolk have just skyped to wish her majesty the Queen a happy 94th birthday. The Queen was not amused.
