Harry’s podcast

[smilesy]

Carrying on the discussion about Harry’s podcast.

[nancy75]

I’m sure he’ll be able to tolerate his family well enough when the Queen dies & he comes home for the reading of the will.
Whether they will be so keen to tolerate him is another matter

[Stroller15]

Has anyone actually listened to the podcast? I'm quite neutral on the whole thing overall, but oh my goodness Harry?! He keeps repeating the same phrases and comes across as a bit dim. Why can't they move on and be happy?? To sit in absolute luxury and moan about everything while the world is going to shit really riled me up.

[nancy75]

@Stroller15? That’s what annoys me too, people losing their jobs, their homes and dime losing their lives & H&M are sitting in their £10m house moaning about how hard done by they are. They can jog on in my opinion

[nancy75]

Dime = some! Bloody fat fingers!

[RoseRedRoseBlue]

Harry and Meghan are utterly shameless and have no idea how this comes across. The Royal connection is all they have to trade, and God, they are going to milk it to the very end.

[Pyewackect]

Shut up Harry.

[Nancydrawn]

I agree that he can't have much more time for talking about how hard things are. At a certain point, childhood grievance has to be either new or generate into something.

I'm not saying his childhood was easy. I think there were real difficulties and real traumas. But heavens above, there is a point at which you realize there are millions of people with similar or greater trauma and no financial or personal security. I don't think we have to play suffering top trumps, but it won't last forever, even in the States.

[GrimDamnFanjo]

He really needs to stop now. And I'd prefer it if the uk media would just stop giving them publicity.

[1forAll74]

I am sick of hearing about Harry and his wittering about therapists, and his own.and his old days of mental health problems. He should be happy now,living in the place that his wife wanted to be,with his family.

He is perpetuating his issues non stop, even to the point of giving talks about his issues ,to those who are now bored witless hearing about him rambling on. He is not the saviour of all man kind. he should get a proper job. But not sure what job would suit him !

@AmandaHoldensLips

I do wish they'd just bugger off.
All this tone-deaf holier-than-thou wokery womble bollocks should stay in california. We are SO not interested.

@AmandaHoldensLips - “wokery womble bollocks” - brilliant, brilliant phrase!!

@SunshineSuxx

There is clearly a MN user who reports every negative comment about these two. Posts are already disappearing.

What a sad existence patrolling MN for negative posts about these two grifters.

I fully suspect Meghan's team is getting every negative article removed from everywhere tbh

[DioneTheDiabolist]

OMG.

[DeeCeeCherry]

Lovely podcast.

Harry sounded relaxed and happy, which I guess must be galling for the coven who spitefully want he and his wife to crash and burn in the nastiest way possible.

He & his wife got up and made changes to their lives, instead of staying in the UK and putting up with petty gossip and racism. Good for them.

The gnashing of teeth will go on for some years yet as toxics assume their target will remain in situ for vitriol. Leaving the table drives them mad.

The twisted armchair psychology is off the scale, it reads as a form of delusional magical thinking. As if some really do believe they're privy to private conversations of the royal family, and are repeating what they've actually heard.

1000s of miles away from UK is the best place for them.

[DarkMutterings]

Harry sounded relaxed and happy, which I guess must be galling for the coven who spitefully want he and his wife to crash and burn in the nastiest way possible.

And god for him, I don't wish they crash and burn - but I don't see why their need to be happy trumps the rest of his family. So why do they get to crash and burn the rest of the RF, in order to be happy?

And I'm usually fairly neutral even a bit anti RF but their determination to make money off slagging them off is turning me to a loyalist.

[DarkMutterings]

god = good

[shamalidacdak]

If they were both happy we wouldn't hear a peep out of them but they are desperate for cash and a bezos lifestyle which will always be out of their reach. So they have to stay in the news just insufferable

[JackieWeaverFever]

@smilesy

This bit made me snort my tea:

The Duke suggested that the fairytale dream of princes and princesses was out of step with reality.

“My wife had the most amazing explanation to that: ‘You don't need to be a princess, you can create the life that will be better than any princess.’

So why insist on a title for Archie?

This made me laugh too.

No no! I don't need to be a princess... duchess is just fine with me thanks!

It's grand enough to help me hawk my random crap and "partner" with p&g 🤮 via our charity (ha!) Archewell foundation.

Whats next? A p&g fairy ad with the two of them whittering on about "precious things" and the bloody "click clack" (vogue williams style) while we all get a good view of the back of archies head bobbing about in the background.

Nice work if you can get it but these two are as bad as each other. It is just soooooò cringe and i cant believe anyone is interested in the self indulgent woke snake oil claptrap they are peddling.

[Mandalay246]

Washing dirty linen in public has never been admirable.

Well said.

They seem to believe the whole world is hanging onto their every word and cheering them on, when the reality is the more whining and blaming everyone else for their troubles (???) they do the more they alienate people. I can't imagine how anyone can be so self-obsessed given the current state of the world and its problems.

[MobyDicksTinyCanoe]

Why's everyone skirting around the fact that Harry's had to carry the weight of speculation about his parentage and jokes about his dead mothers sex life from the entire world. And not one person in his family spoke out to say enough is enough.

Dealing with that all alone through your formative years and beyond would mess anybody up.

[Diverseopinions]

I don't understand why some people think that the Royal Family is about personalities. It's a civic job, giving out awards to people who have volunteered in their communities. Thousands of public-spirited individuals attend garden parties each year. The RF doing this role allows politicians to focus on running the country. Overseas heads of state can be welcomed for the furtherance of international accord, without a politician having deal with the fact that he has criticized that regime before. Because royals perform the head of state role, you don't get members of the public meeting a PM on a visit and telling them to their face that they're responsible for such and such international disaster. The royals are non-political. They wear block colours to merge in with the red velvet and awnings of civic ceremonies.

It doesn't matter how the royals run their family life. Most upper-upper class families would do many things differently to ordinary middle class families. Some people hate going to boarding school, which is customary for many upper-upper class families. It doesn't mean every family has to stop using boarding schools to stay relevant. The RF live lives probably not much different to the normal upper class life. Maybe that is why royals used to marry other aristocrats because they would be used to the life.

[Dustyblue]

I don't find it hard to see why Harry (or any of the lesser royals) would want out of 'The Life'.

I don't find it hard to understand why Harry doesn't want the same for his family, as he had for his own.

But he lost me during the OW interview debacle when he said he was embarrassed to ask for help for his suicidal wife. And implied there was no help to be had for her.

The title business makes no sense. He knew the rules. He could've made use of courtesy titles for Archie (Earl of Dumbarton for one) if that was important to them.

The poor lad keeps contradicting himself and it's getting tiresome. But I've still a soft spot for him and wish he'd go live in luxurious obscurity with hois wife and kid/s instead of trashing his family like this.

[MoChridhe]

My favourite part of the podcast was Harry saying he doesn't give a fuck anymore what the press write about him anymore. He has confronted that fear and he will not be told what to say or do by the press. So all your pearl clutching does not bother him. He realises that whatever he does, it is the same people who don't approve anyway. He was promoting his new TV show about mental Health, so that's what he talked about.

[DelilahTheParrot]

The twisted armchair psychology is off the scale

I couldn’t agree more @DeeCeeCherry, only the twisted armchair psychologists are H&M, no one else. They’re trapped in their own toxic cycle of self pity and rather than reflect on their own flaws, are attacking and blaming everyone around them. The hypocrisy of criticising her Dad for talking to the media whilst pulling stunts like this for publicity is outrageous.
