I don't think Diana was a particularly good mother.

Firstly that they didn't exist (as stated above) but if we were to have a Royal Family it should be the house of Stuart and not some German concoction. Anyone want to join me in a Jacobean revolt?

@TheWoodlanders Have a good look at the photos of Stassi Schroeder's daughter Hartford, from when she was 2-3 years old, and the so-called images of 'Lilibet', there's a very strange resemblance don't you think? Misan Harriman also admitted to heavily editing photos said to be of 'Archie'.

If they exist, why has no one ever seen them? None of their neighbours? Archie is old enough to be at school, yet he is never seen being taken to school, nor has there been any indication from local schools that he is a student. Also their birth certificates, especially 'Lilibet's', contained several irregularities that would make it legally void.

And surely you can't forget the time when Meehan visited the dog rescue, crouching in stilettos when allegedly 7 months pregnant, and her belly popped!

@ElsaLion why on earth would two people fake such a complicated story? It makes no sense at all. It's a conspiracy story, just like the many others on the internet.

Misan Harriman did edit the phots of the children. Why is that proof that the children don't exist? All photographers edit their photos.

I don't care about Meghan and Harry at all. I am not interested in defending them but I am interested in defending the truth. Many, many people have seen Archie being taken to school and the teachers and other children at his school have, of course, seen him. A close relative of mine lives in the area and has seen them out and about on several occasions. Their parents have asked photographers not to follow them and for the school not to report on them. The vast majority of photos of celebrities have been arranged by the celebrities themselves (often setting them up to look like 'surprise' shots).There are no pap photos of Kate and William's children going to school either, or Beatrice or Eugenie's children and that's because they have asked for that. Unlike Diana, they do not want to be papped, and so they aren't.

Please tell me which irregularities there are in Lilibet's birth certificate which makes it legally void?

I think you may be right. I read that while William was at Eton, he had a picture of one of her lovers' wives/fiancees stuck on his dartboard. I think that's really unhealthy and betrays the fact that she must have involved her teenage sons far too much in her sex life.

They should all be put in the tower and then got rid of like the French did to theirs on PPV.

Ooh - savage!

When we were watching the final of the Euros and Prince George was there with William, our 13 year old Ukrainian guest asked me “Why the hell is that little kid dressed like the Head of Geography??” 😂

Ooh, Heads of Geography must dress very smartly in Ukraine, as I imagined. Not like here where it's all floral jumpsuits, DMs and chunky cardis.

bozzabollix · 24/07/2024 19:07

I don’t think the whole thing should exist. Maybe we could have a nice figurehead type person for the nation, someone universally liked such as David Attenborough. I just think the royal family being anointed by God thing belongs in the sixteenth century.

spriots · 24/07/2024 19:07

I really don't understand why William and Kate are so popular. And, in particular, why so many women seem to aspire to be like Kate.

CarmelaBrunella · 24/07/2024 19:07

Henry VIII was quite kind to Anne of Cleves.

Since this is supposed to be unpopular opinions, I'll stick my neck out. I bloody love the Royal family. They can do no wrong in my eyes (apart from Randy Andy obviously - there's one in every family!)

Oh so do I, Puppies!

I always say: I don't mind at all if the UK becomes a republic as long as we can still have the RF!

CarmelaBrunella · 24/07/2024 19:08

Kaiser Wilhelm was not responsible for WW1.

When Queen Margarethe of Denmark was young, she looked like Frank Skinner.

"To the King - over the water!"

Hmm...but the Stuarts were notoriously fond of the Diving Right idea and weren't at all keen on having their style cramped by Parliament. Charles II was Louis XIV's cousin and, well, you can see how things went in France! Charles was jealous of Louis' freedom to do and spend just what he wanted. But Charles II was a constitutional monarch, and didn't he know it (after what they did to his old dad).

When his brother James Stuart tried the same caper, he was very quickly told to sling his hook.

You make it sound like pedophilia is an eccentric quirk. I am certain there are none in my family.

CarmelaBrunella · 24/07/2024 19:12

@CoffeeCantata stop being so logical! Folks on here seem to think that there's still a Divine Right of Kings! shhhhh

Ellerby83 · 24/07/2024 19:12

If Diana had of lived she would have had a difficult relationship with W and H as adults

Edward was quite good looking when he was younger

QE2 only became popular in the last 20 years or so of her life

CarmelaBrunella · 24/07/2024 19:08

Kaiser Wilhelm was not responsible for WW1.

I think you'll find he was, though. He even told Edward VII he was going to start a war in the next few years.

MartyFunkhouser · 24/07/2024 19:12

I think that people that camp out and wave flags at them have to be mentally ill.

I care not a jot about any of them and think it’d be a better place without them.

LizzieBennett73 · 24/07/2024 19:13

That Diana was mentally unstable and that was passed onto Harry. He was an easy target for someone as ambitious as Meghan and they're now co-dependent on each other in a horribly toxic relationship. And I believe her children were carried by a surrogate but are genetically theirs. Hence they were told to sling their hooks and fast.

@CoffeeCantata he may have said that, but we all know it was the stirring of Russia and Austria attacking Belgrade.

@Ellerby83

This is actually true. People who don't know this are either too young to remember, or got taken in by the deluge of propaganda in her later life. I actually admired her but I am not under any illusion as to how much manipulation has gone on over the years.

I hate to be the one to break it to you, but the current Jacobite heir to the claims of the historical Stuart monarchs is Franz, Duke of Bavaria, of the House of Wittelsbach 🤣

BigFatLiar · 24/07/2024 19:16

I don't think Diana cared about Charles but she loved being a princess.

TheWoodlanders · 24/07/2024 19:16

@LizzieBennett73 why do you think their children were carried by a surrogate?

CarmelaBrunella · 24/07/2024 19:19

@Serenster whoo-hoo! Go Franz! 🇩🇪
