Harry’s podcast

Carrying on the discussion about Harry’s podcast.

[quote Cacacoisfarraige]@Roussette

He talks about him a lot in his interviews, his first words, his favourite books, blah blah, just because there isn’t a photo doesn’t mean he’s not putting him in the media[/quote]
They named their 'charity' after him (while pretending otherwise). Meghan's book is supposedly based on his relationship with Harry. They posted a picture of him on his birthday, but because his face was turned away, they can use the celebrity get out clause that they are 'protecting' him.

Of course they use him for PR.

Disagree. No one knows anything to speak of about him. Really... we don't know what he really looks like or anything. Harry was asked a question and he answered.
No one even knew he was going to Nursery!
Until Meghan was papped.

So when some horror vibes up to Archie at school and tells him that his mother went in Oprah and told whole world that she wanted to commit suicide when she was pregnant with him that will be ok ? Because it will happen , and they’ll probably show him the clip too.

So what? Is a crime that your mum is human as felt suicidal?

[quote CokeDrinker]**@mermaidsariel* How would you feel Rousette if one of your children went on national TV to disparage their upbringing and complain about how things were for them if they were living in absolute luxury that their family connections had provided? Especially if one of their grandparents who had done a lot for them had just died/was dying? I bet you wouldn't welcome it.
If your daughter in law who you had tried hard to welcome in every way had rubbished your input?*

One would hope normal adjusted people would not stuff their children up so that they have to resort to going on tv.

And your 'oh they were rich so he should accept what he went through and shut up' is shockingly ignorant and tone deaf, and I suggest you go look for the 'But we took you to stately homes!' thread.[/quote]
So you ARE saying that Charles 'stuffed up' Harry? How come William seems to have turned out OK?

And how, exactly, is going on TV and whining about it going to help anyone? What about 'stuffed up' people who don't have the option of moaning about their family on TV? What should they do?

Sorry the autocorrect went a bit mad there but I think you get the gist

Summer

Doria has never spoken to the press, so what do you mean 'she has gone very quiet'??

I don't agree with any of your post actually. I think they are protecting him by making their own happy life. They have moved away from the toxic british press and well done them.

No it’s not a crime but I can tell you coping with your parent being suicidal is very difficult because it shakes your childish faith in your parents solidity and of course implies that your presence was not enough. It’s complicated and if I could spare my child that knowledge I would.

I know my mum had post natal depression after having me. I only feel compassion for her. Why on earth would I feel in any way bullied by the fact that she is human and had the courage to share it?

It is a good thing women don’t have to feel “glowing” just because they are having a baby.

Honestly, some of the views here are so archaic and depressing.

@Roussette

How come William seems to have turned out OK?

Please don't do this. I posted about my life as a twin and the hugely different upbringings we had and how it affected me.
The fact they happened to have the same parents means absolutely nothing

What do you mean 'please don't do this'?

Your beloved Harry opened up a very public conversation about his upbringing. We're allowd to discuss it, and to wonder if maybe it's Harry who is the problem here.

Why are you @ ing me with such a daft comment?! 🤣

IcedPurple you have no compassion. I explained in a previous post about how my experience affected me but no, you just carry on with the jibes, as that is your modus operandi. I am not going to go any further replying to you because I will get deleted.

You just crack on

@IcedPurple You do realise that people in the same family, ie brothers, are not the same people and can experience different things - right?

Also you're saying that because others don't have access to the media, then Harry and Meghan can't? Seriously? Ordinary people aren't attacked by the media. The fact you can't see the difference is staggering.

gorgeous There is a world of difference between having post natal depression and being suicidal during pregnancy, calling your family racist and then plastering it all over Oprah.

I am sure it was a wonderfully bonding thing for your mother to share with you, mainly because she shared it with you and not the whole wide world.

Anyone that has a school age child will know that this is going to make Archie's school life a living hell. Every child will know everything about Archie and how his life has been damaged and overshadowed by his parents. He will have no opportunity to be a happy go lucky carefree kid that makes up his own rules and form his own identity. He is now stuck forever now in the cast they have made for him.

I feel very very sad for him actually.

rousette I feel bad for you being the only one left standing defending Harry to the hilt, and I can only say that even you must feel this is too much on some level. How you can call his life happy is beyond me, he looks anything but.

I thought it would be obvious that an heir had a different upbringing to a spare. Of all the families in the world, the royal family would be the most obvious setting for this to happen.
It's a terrible way to treat children and I'm only surprised about the fallout between William and Harry not happening sooner as a result, and the resentment within the family coming out.

Someone will have to make sure that he knows the word 'allegedly' when presenting him with his mother's versions of reality.

You do realise that people in the same family, ie brothers, are not the same people and can experience different things - right?

Yes. That's why I'm suggesting maybe the problem isn't the family. Maybe it's Harry.

Also you're saying that because others don't have access to the media, then Harry and Meghan can't? Seriously? Ordinary people aren't attacked by the media. The fact you can't see the difference is staggering.

I'm saying that if you're a public figure - especially ones who have an entire taxpayer funded press office at their disposal - it's a very bad idea to obsess over what people are saying about you. I know the Harkles' fans disagree, but coming in for criticism - as well as praise - is part and parcel of being in the public eye. Some of this may be fair, some of it may not be. But being completely obsessed with what people are saying about you, as these two appear to be, is most unhealthy.

One would hope normal adjusted people would not stuff their children up so that they have to resort to going on tv. Jeremy Kyle's been cancelled.

You bitched about the nanny but we’re not supposed to even mention the others parenting

Please be consistent with your level of scrutiny😂

Either the norland nanny is off the table or the night nanny debacle is fair game😂[/quote]
Ha ha!

summer I'm not the last one standing. Believe me there's lots of us out there. And they have been on other threads in their masses, so don't you worry about me lol

To me, he's never looked happier, he's living his best life with his family.

How do you think ordinary families cope. those that go NC with one side of the family for instance? They all say they are relieved, they are happier than they ever were before, they sleep easier, they are relieved.
I am not saying Harry is or should be NC but I am just trying to say he is living the life he wants.
