Christ sake this is a very depressing view.

I think it’s depressing for people to revisit history in this way.

Did you know Diana or Charles personally?

SluggyMuggy · 10/05/2024 15:09

@AliceOlive What is depressing is that you think a 19 year old woman can be more mature and have more agency than a 32 year old man. That is a depressing view.

Harry is not estranged from most of his family. He sees his Aunts Uncles and cousins in the Spencer side, and Eugenie and Beatrice and their families. As well as Doria and all of her family.

You don't actually know this, do you?

He had a visit from Eugenie over 2 years ago, but when has he done all this socialising with his Spencer and York relatives?

He is estranged from loads of them as you well know. E & B seem to give him the time of day, the aunt and Spencer uncle obviously like a photo op.

I mean he doesn't do well reaching out snd building bridges does he? His wife's poor df for starters. Oh but let's go play at being Royal and do a walkabout amd wave at the fans 🙄.

SluggyMuggy · 10/05/2024 15:14

I do know this. There have been articles about visits and meet ups over the years.

Shame that they didn't invite all of Doria's family to their wedding, and concentrated instead on high profile strangers.

Yes George Clooney and oprah Grin

"Articles" eh?

So the press is to be believed without question now?

He's hardly ever in England so are you saying various Spencers and Yorks fly out to California to hang out with him?

Well quite.

SluggyMuggy · 10/05/2024 15:16

@Janiie Truthfully I can not conceive why someone would be so nasty as to say Harry's aunts, uncle and cousins only see him for a photo op. Such a dreadful thing to say.
And Harry sees them at other times.

She certainly looked shy but many 19 year old women have more sense and maturity than a man in his 30s.

Is this really what your think ? What a strange view .

Press lies. Press tells the truth.

Got to make it fit. Make it fit the narrative. MAKE IT MAKE SENSE!

I suppose everything is depressing for someone who views everything in the world with an eye to making a value judgements. Not everything is good or bad. Something’s just are.

Apart from his uncle and one aunt yesterday, how do you know he sees the other Spencers ?

Mylovelygreendress · 10/05/2024 15:24

If he sees Doris’s family , how come none were at the wedding ?

Yes, I firmly believe some women are more mature than many men. Male and female brains develop at different paces. That part is not an opinion.

SluggyMuggy · 10/05/2024 15:26

@Mylovelygreendress Her name is Doria.
I have no idea why or who controlled the guest list. But Harry and Meghan have both talked about seeing other family on that side of the family.

43percentClaw · 10/05/2024 15:28

And yet they failed to invite them to the wedding.

I wonder why.

What do you mean 'controlled the guest list'?

If Meghan could invite George Clooney or Priyanka Chopra, whom she barely knew, she could surely have invited her own family. But she chose not to.

Typo . I know it’s Doria .
Harry and Meghan controlled the guest list.
I must have missed them saying they had seen other members of Doria’s family . It would be helpful if you could provide a link.

We do have different values because I don’t make up shite and attribute it to someone else in order to attack them.

You obviously know zero about neurology. They do not develop differently. Brains have plasticity.
Brains are affected by their environment. There are greater differences (and even those are very small) between people living in very different cultures, than there are between women and men's brains.
Women and men's brains do not develop at different paces. Brains of both sexes make many connections when younger, and less when older.
Implying a 19 year old woman could be more mature than a 32 year old man sounds like a 1970s type excuse for grooming and abuse of power. Please read some feminism.

I love the copy and paste function.
Saves photocopying.

'Truthfully I can not conceive why someone would be so nasty as to say Harry's aunts, uncle and cousins only see him for a photo op. Such a dreadful thing to say.'

I didn't say just a photo op, I also said maybe shame and regret at how they didn't support their sister, possibly trying to atone. Not the way to go about it.

'So nasty', oh get a grip. There's many more things said about the whole saga that is actually nasty. Ready Harold's book for starters about his bald brother and hunched backed matron.
