I've been wondering about this all week.

What do people think? Would William want that ? Would Kate?

She was 96 , had clearly deteriorated in recent months . It didn’t take Einstein to work out that HM was coming to the end of her life. Frankly I think it was shocking that H didn’t visit the Grandmother he professed to love and admire so much . I can ( sort of) understand why M didn’t want to go to Balmoral but I am sure she could have amused herself in London for a couple of days .

If that was so clear, why was William not visiting in the final days?
Or maybe you are wrong?

I am shocked that they didn't get a invite to last night's reception. That was surely quite a big event and having two extra people wouldn't have been a huge task? Charles should have extended the olive branch there.

I was wondering how Camila's children will feature now.
They have been pretty back seat so far.

Christmas at Sandringham?

Summer a Balmoral?

It wasn’t a social gathering. The only Royals that were there were working Royals.

Harry and Meghan, do not want to be working Royals.

it was for working royals only. If an allowance had been made for the Sussexes, then it follows that an allowance would have had to be made for Andrew which would clearly have been a bad idea. It’s the flip side of allowing Harry to wear uniform at the vigil because Andrew did I suppose.

This is not a normal family. They treat each other badly in the name of protocol.

SallyLockheart · 19/09/2022 14:44

Why? It was a state occasion and it’s only appropriate to have working royals there. No reason for them to be there, any more than Eugenie, Beatrice, Zara, Peter and their spouses should be there as grandchildren of the Queen.

He had been with the children earlier in the summer. He accepted his invitation. Harry didn’t.

The Queen clearly deteriorated quickly. She looked old but well when the Prime Minister change happened two days before she died.

No.

To my first born, I give the £23 million per year income generated by the Duchy of Cornwall, title of Prince of Wales.

To the second, I give my love. And wish him a safe journey home.

Yet, Charles arranged millions for Camilla's adult children. Making sure they had a nice little trust fund. But can't do anything for a son facing threats, with a baby grandson.

Charles gave Harry millions to help him set up home in America and had supported him for the previous 30+ years It was only when H and M announced they were definitely not returning ( I think 2021) that Charles stopped paying . Harry himself said that’s when the money stopped so he “ had to” set up deals with Netflix and Spotify .
It must have been awful to be down to his last £30 million.

William and several others chartered a plane, obviously tried, but the end seemed to come quicker than expected. Meanwhile, Harry was dithering about going, maybe because Meghan wasn't invited...

William and family were there earlier in the summer .

antelopevalley · 19/09/2022 14:53

Harry was there earlier in the summer. By the time Harry was going up, the Queen had died. That is when they all flew up to Balmoral. Although Anne was already there.
They obviously knew it was getting closer, but not that she would die within a few days.

smilesy · 19/09/2022 14:55

Harry was there earlier in the summer

Was he? When was that?

Cornettoninja · 19/09/2022 14:58

I hope they don’t come back and I hope they actually start making this ‘new independent’ life they keep banging on about instead of trading on their family gossip. It’s boring. I’m bored of them.

Act, design a range of clothes, paint pictures, release a pop song, write fiction whatever, just stop going on and on about how unfairly the world has treated them. Perpetual victims aren’t inspirational, they’re draining.

queenofarles · 19/09/2022 15:08

watching the Funeral. how do you go from there to advertising for an App? Harry looked in his Element even though he wasn’t wearing his Uniform, he looked remarkable . Meghan has her own thing going on in the states, but what about him ? Surely he can’t play polo year long nor can he be content with the few cameos on her podcasts and interviews?.

i do feel Charles will try and find a way to make them come back but it won’t be easy.

I can't remember exactly. But the media hadn't known anything until afterwards. He visited the Queen in a private visit. Which was fitting. Not everything needs to be announced to the media.

smilesy · 19/09/2022 15:16

@antelopevalley not at Balmoral though? Wasn’t that in Windsor?

queenofarles · 19/09/2022 15:16

could you please share a link? I haven’t seen it mentioned anywhere ,

None of the Queen's grandchildren were there apart from William. It wasn't a snub. It was always only designed for working royals.

Harry wasn’t there earlier in the summer . The last time he was in the U.K. was for the PJ.

I don't think this is true. He wouldn't go without Meghan, and Meghan wouldn't go.
Were they even in the UK this summer? They flew back home during the Jubilee. Surely they didn't return after that until this latest visit to do some speeches etc.?

Readinginthesun · 19/09/2022 15:22

You can be pretty sure if Harry had visited HM , Scobie would have announced it !

Indeed. A visit to HMQ would not go unreported!

Maireas · 19/09/2022 15:30

I know they met at the Jubilee weekend. Earlier when Harry briefly visited for Invictus. Not since June, though?
Not a criticism, just that their movements since June don't indicate a further visit.
