If only people wouldn't bully her, prevent her dreams and thwart her justified ambition! They must be jealous because she's so whip smart and heart stoppingly beautiful.

Uh-oh 😑

'Mr Olisa told the Mirror: 'The planes were chartered. It was just the royals and their entourage. They were not flying with other passengers. We understand that they are royals so we gave them top-tier treatment on board. They were given everything they wanted. It was an exclusive experience. And we flew them back to Abuja in the evening. Everything was complimentary.' He added: 'The chairman of Air Peace gave Prince Harry and his wonderful wife Meghan free flights to Lagos and back as part of his contribution to the successful hosting of the couple.'

'There is no suggestion that either Harry or Meghan were aware of Onyema's history before they met him.'

What do you call someone who has a good eye for detail?

DelectableMe · 18/05/2024 19:45

Free flights, eh? Could there be a catch?

And there they are, chatting with him.

No such thing as a free flight!

This is where the men in grey suits would have come in handy.

Actually, thinking about it, that sort of footage could be used to blackmail the RF.

Why would the RF be bothered ?

Lifestooshort71 · 18/05/2024 20:32

Harry and Meghan are gadding about the world using their royal titles at every turn and behaving as working members of the RF.
I would imagine the King etc are very concerned.

AutumnCrow · 18/05/2024 20:51

I suppose because the King is the Head of State by consent, and if he starts to looks weak it could be a problem for state stability and security. If his own son becomes compromised in some grubby way, it can be exploited by hostile agents.

BasiliskStare · 18/05/2024 20:57

@OneHeartySnail - I can't see Meghan putting herself into a position where she has to answer serious questioning (rather than OW's fake gasp.of shock), or expose herself to the possible (likely?) rejection of the electorate.

Given she can and does surround herself by people who accept her at her own valuation and provide adulation.

I think there is truth in this - if M&H think they are scrutinised at the moment - running for some political office I reckon they will find very hard .
At the moment it seems to me they can go down the "our truth line " Not if you are running for a public office. I don't think they will do this in a million years

Even a little bit of amateur research shows the Feds weren’t impressed with him, I wonder if they are impressed with them (due diligence and all that).

“Robert J. Murphy, the Special Agent in Charge of the DEA Atlanta Field Division commented on the indictment, “Allen Onyema’s status as a wealthy businessman turned out to be a fraud. He corrupted the U.S. banking system, but his trail of deceit and trickery came to a skidding halt. DEA would like to thank the many law enforcement partners and the subsequent prosecution by the U.S. Attorney’s Office who aided in making this investigation a success.”

There is a German documentary coming out soon which H&M are allegedly worried about.

I've read reports it covers allegations from her past.

What I'd really like to know though is why the Germans and previously the French (Envoye documentary) are doing the digging while our own investigative journos seemingly lie supine.

But she could totally control such a show. They'd be the TV royals. It could be a bit like the Mum influencers but royal style and with a huge global social media following. They should admit that people are mostly interested in their gossip value. Gracefully Trailblazing Duchess and Harry The Hapless Hubby could offer a glimpse into quirky transatlantic royal life in California. They'd have to include Archie and Lilibet though otherwise there'd be little interest. I'd watch this.

Harry could juggle!

Onyema is CEO of Air peace and this proud Sussex Squad member who followed them around on this tour including to cheer Harry in London has a picture of herself with an Air Peace plane in the background and “Fly Air Peace” hashtag.

I am convinced that the U.K. media have a lot of information but have been asked not to print it meantime. There may even be an injunction .
If H and M separate, the gloves will be off .

They are surrounding themselves with increasingly dubious people . Omid Scobie , the Bouzy creature, and now this.

MrsFinkelstein · 18/05/2024 21:18

This popped up on my Tiktok feed (makes a change from my usual sourdough/airfryer/gym/puppies/beaches/cocktails content).

An ex Sussex Squad member talks about how the bullying of Catherine was co-ordinated right from the start, and that nothing less than glorious adulation towards H&M was allowed.

Apparently Omid is out of the loop. (According to X). And apparently also a little strapped for cash…..

“Stanley Olisa, of Air Peace, explained how the Sussexes were given the free flights during their three-day tour of Nigeria to celebrate 10 years of Invictus Games.
He said: “The planes were chartered. It was just the royals and their entourage. They were not flying with other passengers. We understand that they are royals so we gave them top-tier treatment on board. They were given everything they wanted. It was an exclusive experience. And we flew them back to Abuja in the evening. Everything was complimentary.

Accepting hospitality from a dodgy businessman? Now where have we heard that tale before…?
