There's something about the improbable combination of a smashed dog bowl, a therapist on speed dial and a ripped off necklace that puts me in mind of an Alexis and Krystle catfight in Dynasty.

@RhymeHasAReason I was the poster that said Harry seems infuriating. I never once said that being infuriating was grounds for domestic violence. You are twisting the narrative to fit your own agenda their.

That's brilliant, but you had better get it into production quickly before the Sussex Royals bring out their own line and threaten you with the awesome power of their copyright lawyers.

There was the Queen and then all this grubby lot of them. Virtually every last one. Good luck with polishing these turds.Harry is the most real of them all if a little broken and now a world record beating author to boot.Puts the Dolittles to shame. BTW not a single royal going to Pope Benedicts funeral would have been an excellent opportunity to deputise for his dad but apparently he's busy.

Well, it seems at least the publishers got their moneys worth.
Unlike poor Netflix

flapjackfairy · 05/01/2023 08:21

I don't know what the truth is here but most of us can become shouty when stressed and harry has form for being a nasty piece of work himself as evidenced by the texts sent to Thomas Markle that were not deemed appropriate to be read out in court.
I would love to hear the other side of this story because no.doubt H and M will be lily white whilst W is the black hearted villain.

Prescottdanni123 · 05/01/2023 08:21

William and Harry were so close. Harry clung to him, and Kate for that matter, for dear life until Meghan came along.

I wouldn't be surprised if the pair of them had Meghan sussed from.very early on. If the situation was reversed and it was a man that had alienated a female royal so spectacularly from her family, he'd be called every name under the sun. Included the technical word for what he was. An abuser.

Vermin · 05/01/2023 08:21

Blaming Kate and William for his decision to wear the nazi costume (when he had suggested it to them, along with one other, and was the one to actually hire it and wear it) also shows him to be a petulant little brat who cannot accept personal responsibility for anything.

Unless he’s changed his name to JR Moehringer, he’s no author of any kind, let alone a world record beating one

fartichoke · 05/01/2023 08:22

The whole book, according to the Guardian, is Harry's resentment about being the 'spare' to the heir. Fucking hell, he's coming across as a proper knob.

Bubbylana · 05/01/2023 08:22

Ive just read The Traitor king about The Duke of Windsor and Wallis Simpson. Harry and Megan are so similar to the Windsors its un-canny (except for WW2).

queenofarles · 05/01/2023 08:23

God ! some of you have pulled an all nighter.

What really stood out the most for me is that Harry has his therapist on speed dial, and when his wife said she needs help , she’s suicidal, she didn’t ask if she could see/talk to him , nor did he offer his therapist help to her, she went to HR instead 😵‍💫😵‍💫.

if I was the wife I’d be livid , my husband who literally has his therapist in his pocket should be the one who offers help, not HR!!!
i really can’t get my head around this bit at all.

fartichoke · 05/01/2023 08:23

this whole sorry publicity saga is giving me the ICK

Prescottdanni123 · 05/01/2023 08:23

@flapjackfairy

I'm waiting for the news report that Harry and Meghan have been made living saints. They never do anything wrong. It is always everybody else.

Megan1992xx · 05/01/2023 08:23

William sounds like a proper man Harry is Meghan's blouse.

vera99 · 05/01/2023 08:24

Time for a public duel for the Crown jousting at Windsor Great Park following the Coronation.

If a woman had made these claims against William all of Mumsnet would be falling over themselves to post "I believe her."

I have no idea if these claims are true or not but the minimising on here is grim and hypocritical.

Yes, I agree there’s an bit of minimising when the complainer is a male. Mind you I have often thought the same about the people who completely dismiss the fact that Harry has been completely isolated from his family, friends and home environment by his wife - as people often point out, if a woman had told that story on Mumsnet people would be rightly very concerned. That is completely minimised too.

Vermin · 05/01/2023 08:24

“World record beating author “?!! The book is being released at half cover price or less in the quietest time for sales in order to secure top spot in rankings as you need to sell far fewer copies to get the top spot in January than in any other time of the year (same with records - all new artist albums out January as less competition so you get a no. 1 with a handful of sales, compared to December when the market has its biggest sellers)

Exactly! If only there was a grand staircase nearby one of them could have dramatically tumbled down. However, if said necklace was one of those tacky leather dog tag things that Harry favours, good riddance. Just order another one from ASOS.

DillDanding · 05/01/2023 08:16

No coming back from this.

I’ve always suspected William is an arse.

Well, I'd hate to have you as part of my jury when I'm accused of something.

You believe the first piece of evidence with no context or rebuttal from the defendant.... Yikes

snapdragon12 · 05/01/2023 08:11

Comparing this kitchen spat between a soldier who killed people in armed
combat and his brother and female victims of domestic violence, is grim.

It really is. Throw in the fact that the alleged victim is a wealthy Prince who can jet off to live in a US mansion free of charge with police escort in tow and it's ludicrous.

the80sweregreat · 05/01/2023 08:27

Harry had a fair amount of support back then from the public for wearing that awful uniform to a fancy dress party , I was always amazed that his courtiers and paid staff didn't tell him to change it , what was he thinking ?
People shrugged it off as ' his only young ' ' he lost his mum as a kid ' etc etc, people I know who wouldn't let their own children make such a massive terrible mistake! It was a bit odd , but then Harry was seen then as a poor misguided soul or the joker of the family and ' we all make mistakes'

AlecTrevelyan006 · 05/01/2023 08:28

Harry comes across as a whining little wimp.

TheCockatoosCrest · 05/01/2023 08:28

How much are you betting that Harry giving William a glass of water in the kitchen was not the placating gesture he words it as. I much more envisage a glass being snatched out of a cupboard, water being poured and thrown over William with a scream of 'You need to cool down Willy old chap, have a drink on me'. Willy, losing his rag grabs Harold by his necklace and screams 'You my friend can take a cooling drink from the dog bowl'

I know I wasn't in the room blah blah and I know throwing water at someone is not a justification for violence etc. Just speculating. I can't wait for this period to be covered in the Crown.
