@Serenster the shamrocks have been presented by a female royal since 1901. Kate was always supposed to present them, not William. As for giving her a free pass, if you phoned work to tell them you weren't coming in as you wanted time with your kids, what would they say? If one of them was poorly the nanny or William could have looked after them.
@EthelMayFergus are you a marine? Because the same logic could be applied to your criticism of Harry.
@YgritteSnow doesnt make you judge jury and executioner as to what the entire military think. Some would say harry swapped one 'work' commitment for another whereas Kate just lazily stayed at home despite having a nanny. In my opinion both showed them up to who they really are - Harry a wannabe celebrity and Kate very workshy.
@coconutpie see above. I really doubt you would be excusing Meghan if she ditched a commitment to 'spend time with Archie' despite having a full time nanny.
The reason I pipe up is because there isnt a single H and M thread where they are critiqued without sycophantic and hypocritical fawning over the Cambridges.
Either compare fairly or don't, but you can't claim most of the misdemeanors committed by Harry havent been made by Kate and William at some point as well.
