Two brothers have fallen out, with one leaving the family business to go and live with his wife in her country.

That's it.

The only reason the spin off stuff (books, TV, interviews) happens is because all of you provide an audience for it.

Switch off and it will end, keep on engaging and YOU keep it going.

Unless of course you all actually enjoy the faux outrage Wink

You’ve just started a thread on it so….

Hungrycaterpillarsmummy · 06/01/2023 14:08

That is true actually. If people just stopped reading about it, it would all stop. But it's the same with Katie price, politicians etc. it's public interest because we have been conditioned to be interested in it.

QueenAstrid · 06/01/2023 14:10

Agreed! Who gives a shit!

Preraph · 06/01/2023 14:10

Agreed...H&M are playing to an eager audience, take that away and the whole boring saga becomes pointless.

Glindara · 06/01/2023 14:10

It’s all the drama, Mick. I just love it.

Applecottagetree · 06/01/2023 14:11

I don't understand how anyone has the energy to give a shit about it all. Salacious gossip is all it is. The country is falling to shite and yet we're being told to care about Harry losing his virginity.

Theunamedcat · 06/01/2023 14:12

We arnt the ones blurting out stories of losing our virginity all over the world

ChardonnaysBeastlyCat · 06/01/2023 14:14

It's January. I'm WFH because of the strikes. I'm skint and this has been the best free entertainment ever.

If Harry is happy to provide it then it would be rude not to have a laugh or fourteen as his expense.

pilates · 06/01/2023 14:15

And yet you decide to start a new thread 🤔

ChardonnaysBeastlyCat · 06/01/2023 14:15

I could do some ironing and the house needs a good hoover, but where is the fun in that?

It's actually ridiculous. Harry has released a book. Currently not even in English, but in Spanish (so bear in mind different translations can lead to different interpretations depending on culture and the imperfect nature of language.) Books aren't meant to be sectioned off into 20 different articles - they're meant to be read as a whole so that context and tone are retained.

I'm sure Harry knew to a certain extent that his book would be treated this way, but I did expect some intelligence from a forum that prides itself on common sense. The endless threads on this, reacting with a vulture-like glee to each new 'revelation' as though Harry is standing naked in front of Buckingham Palace firing off a new scandalous anecdote every hour instead of, y'know, an autobiography of his life which is meant to be read fully before judgement can be passed, really show people up for the gossip-hungry ghouls they actually are.

dangerrabbit · 06/01/2023 14:20

I'm enjoying this saga even more than KUWTK

Madamecastafiore · 06/01/2023 14:22

I wasn't bothered by any of it. Thought it was like an upper class episode of Jeremy Kyle but by God I want to read the book now. Sounds fucking hilarious. He's the gift that keeps on giving isn't he!

Yeah people are pretty horrible really.

Person puts edited (by him) version of his life story into public domain.

Public discusses edited (by someone else) bits of his (edited) version.

Not sure what the problem is?

Falalalalalalaetc · 06/01/2023 14:34

Well you might have been right up to the point that Harry pissed off the Taliban. He's now created a foreign relations incident and created a security risk for the UK public / royal family.

So it's not just about the drama of one family any more.

I never thought I'd ever agree with anything the Taliban would ever say, but I do agree that describing Afghan lives as 'chess pieces' is profoundly offensive and to do that in a book which is solely about gaining money for himself and whinging about how hard done by his over privileged life is makes it worse.

Of course we bloody enjoy it. What, do we seem unhappy?
