So Harry flew for 11 hours and then spoke to his father for 45 minutes ? Charles then bobbed to Sandringham by helicopter and Harry checked into a hotel. I mean wouldn't you think Harry would have gone to Sandringham with Charles maybe ?

I don't suppose Camilla would want to see him after all the crap he spouted about her.

Mumsnut · 07/02/2024 07:27

Who knows? Maybe they had to have their meeting in the garden because Harry had basically spent 11 hrs in a germ factory and Charles’ immune system is affected by chemo?

maybe Harry had a night out booked with Eug and Jack and will follow on?

etc, etc.

we can’t possibly know.

portocristo · 07/02/2024 07:29

Yes we don't know, but it seems weird but then again they are weird.

agree, perhaps germs when on cancer treatment

HairyToity · 07/02/2024 07:35

I think he got the snub.

I think Harry getting on a plane within hours was quite dramatic and Charles is trying to play it down. I couldn't help but think he should have asked his dad when suited for him to travel, and been slightly less hasty.

tbf he probably isn't welcome at Sandringham after all his interviews and book hoha.

Janetime · 07/02/2024 07:37

It just seems this unseemly rush over, making it all about Harry was totally unnecessary and he’s just gagging to get his feet back under the table.

how can they trust him, know he isn’t flying over so it looks like he’s in with them and help his brand or to get the dirt so they can speak about it in their next interview. Or Harry pretend, like he did the queen that he was there to make sure Charles had the right people round him

the family did the right thing. This was not an opportunity for Harry.

Ratsoffasinkingsauage · 07/02/2024 07:37

He received the consequences of his actions. He wrote a tell all book about his notoriously private family and made some quite nasty accusations about William and Camilla. And was not particularly pleasant about his father either.

Why would they want to see him? People should be allowed to have boundaries.

I agree, prob they told him it was fine. But harry being harry did what suited him. And now loads of folks thought Charles was at deaths door and Harry was making a mercy dash. The short meeting shows that was far from the case. There was absolutely no need for Harry to come over.

Mrsjayy · 07/02/2024 07:40

I mean I don't know how ill the King Is but surely it would have been sensible to maybe video call his dad in private all this speeding/dashing/dropping everything to fly over is a bit dramatic!

whataboutnow · 07/02/2024 07:41

Charles may have asked Harry to come. None of us know if that's the case.

Clearly that wasn’t the case, or Charles would have hung around , you know and actually spent time with him .

so no Charles didn’t, this is just another Harry stunt. Prob demanded the over the top police escort as well and stayed in a hotel to make a point.

tne odds are overwhelming this is just more of the same behaviour from Harry, for Harry, it’s about Harry

He asked him to fly from America for a 45 minute catch-up? They could have face-timed and saved the air fare and the carbon footprint. Nah, this is all Harry being dramatic.

Ratsoffasinkingsauage · 07/02/2024 07:46

@Mrsjayy Surely that is Harry’s MO- always a bit over dramatic and attention seeking.

Mrsjayy · 07/02/2024 07:48

I mean who told the media he was coming for a man who bleats on and on about privacy he could have visited his father privately I wonder if he had time to contact Netflix before he left.

NigelHarmansNewWife · 07/02/2024 07:48

Well Harry is damned if he does and damned if he doesn't. He did the right thing by coming over imho.

Lockupyourbiscuits · 07/02/2024 07:49

If he was really genuine he could have issued a statement and said “my dad is not a racist “

Not created a drama mercy flight and brought a bag of germs with him

It says it all
PR

Right thing by whom?

doubleshotcappuccino · 07/02/2024 07:49

Good for Harry- he did absolutely the right thing. William needs to build a bridge - how can he be King if he can't be the bigger person in this scenario . Harry has suffered the same trauma as his brother and been hung out to dry by a step mother drip feeding the media . The only way through this is to come together.
So easy to call him dramatic when if he hadn't come he would have been criticised

Janetime · 07/02/2024 07:49

Exactly he’s seen an opportunity to make it all about him again. Clearly there was absolutely no need for this trip. And the shortness of the meeting shows that.

it also caused the royal family a problem, as it really made Charles’s cancer diagnoses so much more dramatic.

just more Harry nonsense. I really feel sorry for the royal family .

doubleshotcappuccino · 07/02/2024 07:50

Seems less concern for the king in a lot of these comments and a lot of " let's have another bash at Meghan " .. I wonder why she gets so much vitriol .. hmm .. can't think of what would single her out ?!!

Don’t be daft. If he’d not come folks would have assumed Charles was exactly what they said, quite fine and they caught it early.he could have popped over in a month.

and why should William build a bridge after what Harry’s done to him?

Um you’re the only person to mention her?

For goodness sake he came to see his Dad ! Many of us who have ambivalent relationships with our fathers would relate -
