Does anyone know where Prince William is?

Errrrr….. where’s Willy? The press focus in the past 24 hours has been perplexing. King Charles’ diagnostic has been the top item, of course. But, bizarrely, the 2nd item has almost invariably been… Prince Harry this and that and the other. Prince HARRY??? What’s with the obsession with him? This should be about Prince WILLIAM! Yet from/about him, absolute silence. What on Earth is going on?

And please don’t start with the “he has to be at his wife’s bedside”. If Harry The Not Next In Line To The Throne And Not Counsellor of State And Can’t Stand In For The King etc etc can fly all the way from Montecito, then William The next King and He Who Should Stand In For King Charles can go visit his Dad in hospital (did he?), rush to be by his dad’s bedside (did he?), make announcements about which official duties he will take up, etc etc.

I know Prince Harry is the one the media are addicted to writing about and slagging off to drive clicks, but can they (and so many on these boards) perhaps take a break from their unhealthy obsession with H (&M) and keep the spotlight where most would expect it to be, on King Charles and, in particular, his successor Prince William?

@MrsFinkelstein

Hey, my primula comes from a tube, not a skooshy can, and I eat mine on a Ritz cracker with an individual silverskin pickled onion.

It. Is. The. Height. Of. Sophistication. The. Height.

What do Jeremy Clarkson, Piers Morgan and Tom Bowers have in common?

🤔

Shortening telomeres and absolute confidence in their own intelligence, wit and charm?

I should have known@MrsFinkelstein. Anyone who graduated from the Findus Crispy Finishing School of the 70s and 80s knows how to elevate a ritz cracker to that level of haute cuisine.

“Prince Harry makes gag-filled speech at NFL awards in Vegas but FAILS to mention cancer-stricken father Charles - after rushing back to the US from 45-minute meeting with the King in the UK “

UKBusy Prince Harry

I’ve seen footage of his speech but can’t link to it for some reason.

It's a job I suppose.

As a poster said on another thread it does explain why he came over to the UK for a 30ish min meeting with his Dad. Doesn't make the optics much better, but they would have been much worse if he hadn't.

The Findus is the best of finishing schools.

They still make that stuff???

I hope he was value for money for the organisers, as he probably needs this to become a stable income stream.

Most presenters at award shows for the individual awards are not paid so would be surprised if he was paid at all. I would be interested to know if anyone knows differently - we have a few people who work in the industry on this board. A quick review of compensation schemes for the Ricky Gervais and Chris Rock of this world actually shows that these events are not very well paid.

I just read his “ gag filled” speech . Didn’t laugh once .

Here’s a better clip of Cameron Heyward’s surprise.

Had a quick peruse - Cameron absolutely more than deserves that prize for all the charitable work he does.

Piers' Morgan's words were appalling and I'm glad someone pulled him up on it.

ArcaneWireless · 09/02/2024 11:12

Bloody hell fire. Just read the PM quote.

No words. Just despicable.

jeffgoldblum · 09/02/2024 11:15

I avoid his drivel @ArcaneWireless ! , so will take everyone's word on it !
He has form!

mrsmingleton · 09/02/2024 11:18

Ah well now we know why Harry made such a quick trip to the UK - he had another engagement and suddenly someone thought how bad he would look if he went to that without first going to see KC.

And it's people like him who are fuelling other people to think it's okay to say just as despicable things 🙄 seen enough on this forum as it is. People need to chill out. It's like they have this bloodthirsty drive to just continually attack a person over every single thing.

Yes but given your enormous mirth at all the cheese jokes on these threads, you may well have quite an idiosyncratic sense of humour.

Mylovelygreendress · 09/02/2024 14:00

Yikes , I am being stalked !!

wildernesssw · 09/02/2024 14:07

Never mind @Mylovelygreendress have some cheese to recover 🧀😀

I am normally a Brie gal but after the mention of Primula I had a real longing for a squeeze of Primula with shrimp on a ritz cracker so toddled off to Tesco this morning . No primula . This was the best I could come up!

Does anyone know where Prince William is?

I salute you @Mylovelygreendress

Your commitment to cheese is an example to us all

Ohhh ! Young Han Solo !! Now you're really upping my game! @wildernesssw ! ❤️

@jeffgoldblum I suspect we are much the same age 😂

My head is exploding. Primula is spray cheese, right? You have spray cheese there? I thought that was solely a US thing. I feel vindicated on behalf of all Americans and our cheese.

Anyway, I was inspired to have actual cheese on a cracker with spring onion due to this thread and my poor reading of @MrsFinkelstein 's post. I mistranslated "silverskin pickled onion" to "spring onion" because I was in a tizzy over the Primula. It was delightful. My DH asked why I was having cheese and crackers for breakfast. I silently thought "It's after 2PM in England, dear." Silent because... well, he doesn't want to hear any more about you lot or your RF or MM.

It’s not a spray here. It’s a squeezable tube (like a toothpaste tube - can’t think of a better example)

I love plastic cheese and am a particular fan of Cheese Whizz whether it is in Crab Queso dip or squirting out of jalapeño peppers 😂
