What happened to just call me Harry? Why would they want their children to be burdened with titles?

“When reached by PEOPLE, a spokesperson for the Duke and Duchess of Sussex said: "I can confirm that Princess Lilibet Diana was christened on Friday, March 3 by the Archbishop of Los Angeles, the Rev John Taylor."

being irritated by a throwaway stupid remark

Source?

It was a statement made in an interview. A planned interview. Interesting it has now unsurprisingly been twisted by the deranged posters themselves to be a ‘sound bite’ when it was no such thing.

Christening someone doesn’t change their birth cert name. It would be pretty pointless to christen her first name Princess Second Names Lilibet Diana when her legal name is Lilibet Diana???

Yet when he was at an event and said "Just call me Harry"... posters on here took the piss out of him endlessly thread after thread. Even posting JCMH on and on.

He can't win can he?

I think that's because he says just "call me Harry" while making sure that his title is used everywhere, including the advertising of an event. He literally could just call himself Harry Windsor.

It's that overtrying to be pally. A bit like, "call me Dave" was with Cameron. Except in Harry's case he's very certain that his titles must be used at these same events.

Tbh not with me, I think he is a moron of the highest order who has been spoilt rotten all his life. What name did he put on his book? Wasn’t Harry Wales or Sussex or whatever made up surname he has now was it? Never heard of this one event saying Just call me Harry on posters, guess it didn’t stick.

Errm, I think the “posters” being referred to are the ones who “post” on here😂😂😂. The event where he said “just call me Harry” was just after they left, but I can’t remember which one

If you're interested in the royals, and tarot, there's a reader on You Tube - "Mad World Tarot" - who gives daily readings, mostly on the royals. She's a lot of fun and very entertaining even if you don't believe in the predictions.. She did a reading on this today.

*Do they all hold British Passports , American ones ?

Don't know about US ones

Harry and Archie are entitled to British ones, other than by descent, as both were born in UK to British parents. Lili is entitled to one as she is British by descent (born overseas with a parent who is British other than by descent).

All of Archies hypothetical future DC will be entitled to be British citizens (by descent) but Lili's won't be, unless they are born in UK (as 'by descent' doesn't transmit another generation outside UK)

Meghan can't be British, as it was announced at the time of the marriage that she would not be fast-tracked to British citizenship. And she clearly hasn't fulfilled the necessary residency period.

That will be handy for the divorce when the children have to stay with her in the USA

And if Harry is on a greencard he will be able to take citizenship within three years of holding that greencard as he is married to an American citizen (five years if you are not married to an American)

Then he would be able to hold both passports - although as someone else pointed out you have to renounce foreign titles to do that.

On a personal level though, @RaspberryBeret1999, it’s really sad that their family relationships have broken down to this extent. If they are really trying to gaslight the RF, that’s even sadder and doesn’t bode well for their future relationships with their children, for example.

I agree, it is sad, but at the heart of it, they are a very toxic family and Harry and Megan would do better all round going no contact.

Now, if only the media would let them do that…but no they continue to stir shit up which Harry always ends up responding to.

But hey, who can blame him, after all they literally hounded his mother off the road and killed her, for a photo.

I don’t wish it on them. Based on my own life experience of others in high pressure, high stress relationships between two troubled individuals who have estranged themselves from their families, they don’t tend to last. That’s a tragedy for the family.

MrsDanversGlidesAgain · 08/03/2023 19:41

Bring think it was just a sound bite but still you come on MN. If you feel that badly about her wouldn't you stop, there are plenty of other forums you really don't have to put up with it

It's possible to have a less than favourable opinion of a site founder and still use their product - that's called making value judgement about what's more important - being irritated by a throwaway stupid remark or appreciating what MN brings to one's life and acting accordingly.

Unless of course there's a rule that we all have to be signed up to be Justine fans before we're let loose on the boards. Must have missed that one, if so.

Yes I see your point. Convenient I guess. I was going to suggest it's a bit like Twitter but Elon didn't go as far as insulting a collective group of its users. I guess from Justine's point if the number of posters she called deranged disappeared from her site tomorrow would it be of any consequence to her.

But somebody else made a valid point which is that they use the site for more than venting off about M&H so I guess that's what keeps them.

He doesn’t have a green card. He is on a ‘talent’ visa

Maybe the first step to cutting them off, which I actually think is a bad idea) is to stop talking about them, stop making programmes about them, stop writing about them, stop doing interviews about them. Then there's nothing for anyone to say.

Arrocahar23 · 08/03/2023 20:05

PreparationPreparationPrep · 08/03/2023 19:52

I'm interested how an American born child can hold a British title .
Will Harry and Archie ever take Citizenship .
Do they all hold British Passports , American ones ?
I'm sure the Palace is sifting through the documents as we speak .

I'm sure they are not. If necessary can't they just have dual citizenship. Harry is not going to be King.

Thank God.

Are they using “Prince” for Archie as well then🤔

I thought they said Archie couldn't because of the inherent racism in the family and he wouldn't be allowed to be a prince because he's mixed race.
Anyway. They've said a lot of things.
