I bet he's going to regret all of this when he divorces 🏃‍♂️🙏

Really?

I wouldn't wish that on anyone. I'm pretty sure they're doing ok

I wouldn't wish it on anyone either.

Good to hear. Having been through too many divorces in my family (not me, god knows how!) I wouldn't wish it on anyone and help dearly they make it work

He wouldn’t be the first in the family to divorcez

Princessconsuelabananahammock9 · 16/06/2023 20:09

I don't think she can go back to acting beyond Hallmark. Celebrities don't trust them.

Her blog was actually awesome. I loved it. Her decor and casual fashion was great. I don't know how she could recapture that though.

I'm Canadian and I don't know anyone who supports them. I think most here and in the US are just bored of them. There isn't enough interest at this point.

I don’t really agree that divorce is always a terrible thing to happen to kids. Loads of divorces in my family - eg I’ve somehow accumulated 5 grandmothers and 3 grandfathers during my life!! But the royals tend to divorce badly let’s say. Although they are no longer royal so maybe they’d do things differently.

I think M/H are trapped in a bit of a PR cycle. Even Mother Theresa and Nelson Mandela weren’t universally beloved, so the rest of us have no hope. But they seem to think if they explain their POV one more way in one more medium everyone will suddenly accept their side of things.

Gracewithoutend · 16/06/2023 20:28

Aw, I don't want them to divorce. I want them to be happy. Not because of them, they're adults and are responsible for their actions, but because of their children. I want them to grown up in a secure, loving home.
And anyway, it's clear he's genuinely in love with her. As she was with him when they married. At this point, though, I've no idea what her feelings about him are. He must be a bit of a nightmare. But I do hope they're just happy together.

I agree on blog! Is it true celebs don’t trust them. How does Oprah feel post interview? Tyler P still onside? Eugenie & Jack? Are Bee & Edo in their corner? Soho house chap?

Controversially, was he ‘in love’ or madly infatuated & delighted he had the sort of girlfriend desired by many alpha men? She was beautiful, charismatic, she radiated the warmth his mother had. (As he saw it).

Curiously I have found actors/actresses often have a magnetic pull, a siren call. Often above average looking, which might factor in, but that is far from all…

I always wondered, did Princess Eugenie know that the private-seeming footage of her would appear in the Netflix documentary? Must have been pretty awkward for her

Gracewithoutend · 16/06/2023 20:38

And to add, they'll never get divorced. They're like the D&D of Windsor. They're locked in so even though Wallace grew to despise the Duke, she couldn't leave. She contented herself with having affairs.
The best the Sussexes could hope for is living apart and saying nothing.

But I don't see that on the cards. She seems to find him funny still so I'd say they're pretty solid.

I would imagine she’d know & have to agree up front. This would be standard practice. If so, was it E/J’s way of offering support?

On doco appearances, Ashley the niece, the cooking with M’s fam, all felt a tad contrived to me. If I wanted her at our wedding, she’d be there!

I don't think he was ever going to date anyone average looking, was he? And he was really made up that William seemed envious of their relationship.

I guess all these things play into attractions but they've been together for a while and he still seems smitten. But then who else has he got out there? Everything is invested in her and he can't go back to the UK, and wouldn't want to anyway as that would mean leaving the children behind.

I'm betting on them staying together and just being a normal couple with normal ups and downs.

No, you’re right, he’s a Prince. Was W potentially envious?

If she got with him for the ‘wrong reasons’ she’ll likely split. Time will tell. I want them to live happily ever after.

Because they've made such a big play of how they rescued each other and how much they love each other. How he gave up his family and country for her. There are so many people, including his family, that said you're going too quickly, take your time, make sure she's the right one. But he had a go at his brother for saying it. As I recall, he accused William of not wanting him to be happy. Of how jealous the whole RF were of her because she's so much better than them at being royal.
It would be too embarrassing for him to get divorced. Never going to happen.

Harry said he was.

jeffgoldblum · 16/06/2023 20:53

From my perspective, she is average looking for California or Hollywood!
Understandably Harry probably thought her glamorous compared to the women he mixed with.

I dont see how anyone seeing them together at their wedding could think she didn't love him. It makes me a bit cross when people say she only married him because of who he was. I mean did that sweeten the pot? I'd say so. It would me. And she does love a title. Would she have gone to Africa in a tent alone with someone if he hadn't been a prince? She doesn't seem to be mentally impaired, so I'd say no. Did she put up with more shit early on than she would from another guy? Probably.

But she still loved him. No one will convince me otherwise. 💏

Aw, I think she's pretty. And I don't know what the royals put in the water at BP, but she definitely got prettier after getting married. Maybe it's the luurrrve!

CathyorClaire · 16/06/2023 21:04

It explains how he ended up marrying someone for whom a whole nation danced in the streets when hearing about their wedding in the UK and for who the pilot and cabin crew delivered a hero's ovation

You forgot inspiring seals to sing.

They were fiendishly unlucky with the timing of the start of the pandemic

But Covid blowing up the original masterplan to fleece gullible bankers on the after dinner circuit is what's made the subsequent constantly-on-the-back-foot circus so marvellously entertaining...

I hope so, I have it in my head that she was casting around for high status men & she’s an actress…

The fact she was allegedly keen on Ashleigh Cole made me raise an eyebrow & in hot pursuit. Etc. May all be BS…

NB: Apparently the ‘tent’ was akin to a 5 star plus hotel & vast.

Elior · 16/06/2023 21:09

I think she was girl-next-door pretty in her early twenties, additionally attractive after having a lot of surgery and tweakments during her thirties and she literally married Harry before it fell off a cliff. Honestly, I don't think she is aging well on any count but keeps looking glossy and chiseled with some very expensive procedures and a million dollar apparel hoard.
