Play nicely and don’t say anything that will get your post (or the thread) deleted. I’ll start. Archie is cute and it would be lovely to see him more often.

Why don’t they sue?

JaJaDingDong · 30/08/2020 00:33

Since when did Harry enjoy rugby league? I thought Union was his game.

jessstan2 · 30/08/2020 02:02

Of course they want to come to the UK, Harry is an Englishman and wants to visit home, see friends and family etc. That doesn't mean they are not happy in their new home but life has hardly been 'normal' for anyone over the past few month, rich or poor.

The fact that their new house cost however many million dollars is not relevant. The pandemic has been no respecter of persons.

I'll be pleased to see the couple, and Archie, back here for a while, they are a lovely couple and were very popular until the media put the boot in.

wufti · 30/08/2020 06:56

But do friends and family want to see them, given they have slagged most of them off either in Finding Freedom or various media leaks?

Really?!! You don't think her comments had anything to do with her unpopularity?? Take away any press reporting (that may or may not have been the truth) but her statement
"Not many people have asked if I'm OK" was when she hit rock bottom for me.

KatherineParr4 · 30/08/2020 08:54

Lovely couple?

I think the RF would beg to differ.

Pancakeorcrepe · 30/08/2020 08:56

“A lovely couple” 😹😹😹😹😹 please

LittleBearPad · 30/08/2020 08:58

Well we can differ on whether they’ll be welcomed home...

I see they’ve leaked a video of them handing out the school stuff again. For people who want privacy they certainly like being in the papers a lot

ajandjjmum · 30/08/2020 10:14

If you want privacy, why do you take a photographer with you on your bits of voluntary work?

Need photos for their Christmas message...

I’d put money on them doing one!

Oldbutstillgotit · 30/08/2020 10:47

And the video is “leaked” on the same day that Catherine announces the top 100 photos in her Hold Still initiative !

Lockupyourbiscuits · 30/08/2020 10:55

They still haven’t got any proper work - they are obviously not willing to take maybe a lesser job to start with like most people
They seem to think turning up at a charity event is a job - if they are making money from copyrighting photos or videos they are basically working as “influencers”

Viviennemary · 30/08/2020 11:07

The only thing that influences me is to avoid like the plague anything they are involved with.

Probably timed to coincide with HM!

Predictable really since they have a lengthy history of doing similar things. It just shows them to consider the RF competition and rivals instead of wanting to allow all the charities they and their family support to get equal and fair press coverage. I’d think their charity work was great otherwise but the constant need for competing publicity just means it looks hollow and needy instead.

This is the risk that charities, sponsors and firms will need to weigh up. I imagine their unpopularity is why they aren’t bothering with U.K. charities or companies now and focusing on America. Ultimately it will come down to how the public there perceive them and whether they are sympathetic and/or liked by the audience. Looking at their current track record of using and then abandoning those who are no longer of use or deemed as completion behind them, they will need to change that if they want to stay settled where they are and make money. Making money, enough money to fund their current lifestyle, in America ultimately comes down to being popular or having something people want. That’s why they wouldn’t be a success in the U.K. now and it remains to be seen whether they can do so in America. They can’t be financially independent if they aren’t liked and Charles has to pay for everything.

According to the DM , Spotify are going to pay them “ a 7 figure sum “ to make Podcasts .

Pancakeorcrepe · 30/08/2020 12:28

That Spotify podcast thing is clearly them throwing something to see if it sticks. The comparison with Michelle Obama is the give away, Meghan is the only one comparing herself to Michelle Obama, anyone sensible realises they are not in the same league. Not even in the same championship. Meghan is the one calling and inviting herself to this previous events, she is basically following Michelle wherever she is!

SunbathingDragon · 30/08/2020 18:06

On the rugby zoom call Harry says he loves living in America and appreciates the little outdoor space he has.

Considering we are in a pandemic, I’m surprised he feels he’s been able to really appreciate living there properly yet but what really struck me is the fact that he is trying to relate to people stuck in their houses and comments that he is grateful he is better off than those in flats because he has some outdoor space. He’s spent his entire time in multi million dollar mansions! There is nothing relatable about how he has spent lockdown compared to the vast majority of the population. Nothing at all.

They're leaking something practically everyday, so I don't think that was deliberate to be fair.
KatherineParr4 · 30/08/2020 22:29

I’d respect them if they got proper jobs and stopped making silly videos. Or did real charity work out of the public eye instead of a ten minute jaunt with a photographer. It’s a joke.

Viviennemary · 30/08/2020 22:36

This latest change the world for the better nonsense in Harry's latest speech. Who on earth do they think they are. I wish they'd stop waffling on from their mansion. Especially about equality and rank.

Totally agree. It’s so tone deaf .
bluebell34567 · 31/08/2020 05:50

it seems many people left here.

lifestooshort123 · 31/08/2020 07:56

(I still lurk, where have the Mods gone?).
Didn't most of the Miss World contestants give 'make the world a better place' as their ambition? It would be good if Harry could settle on a small area where he could make a difference and get cracking instead of spouting Coca-Cola platitudes. Africa used to be his thing and it would good to hear about some zooming going on there tbh.
