Hollywood Reporter - Meghan and Harry

[ThatAvidViewer]

Why Hollywood Keeps Quitting on Prince Harry and Meghan Markle (hollywoodreporter.com)

Why’d they all leave? What explains the churn? “Everyone’s terrified of Meghan,” claims a source close to the couple. “She belittles people, she doesn’t take advice. They’re both poor decision-makers, they change their minds frequently. Harry is a very, very charming person — no airs at all — but he’s very much an enabler. And she’s just terrible.”

Agree

Of course Charles would never exert his legal right but this situation almost explains why that law exists. When H's dcs grow up, you will have two adults with British royal titles who have not grown up in the culture and have no idea of the responsibilities which come with the privilege of having a title. There's a real possibility they could embarrass the RF again and again.

I agree with you actually - I think she will most likely survive this, outwardly anyway, although a few opportunities might dry up.

Unless someone has some video...

It all depends what happens over the next couple of days, are there loads of people poised to tell their own similar stories about her, or will it all go away? A massive news story would help her - she's probably keeping her fingers crossed that Trump gets shot again.

William should make it a rule that titles cannot be passed by less you’re a UK citizen (so meghan wouldn’t have got one) and reside in the UK (so the kids would have to spend time here)

This is all starting to remind me of the lead up to the formal announcement of the separation of Charles and Diana.

The press started printing stories against Diana , even though they would be putting on a united front in public.

As I remember it, we all knew the writing was on the wall but went along with the farce.
Followed by faux shock when it was made official.

I wonder if the HUGE clue was in the statement Harry released via BBC, in which he told of his joy of being a dad but no mention of his joy being a husband.

I feel it's a soft launch for separation.

Enforced by W&K wishing Harry a happy birthday.
After all they didn't acknowledge
Meghans birthday last month.

The so called Summer of Love isn't going very well is it.

Wasn't 2024 billed as their year of redemption?

I imagine Meghan is holed up with her team, if she still has one, to figure out whether to do a mea culpa (most likely with a hint of it being somehow the RF's and the media's fault but everything's ok now that she's found joy), or risk a denial. Denial might come spectacularly unstuck if the floodgates open though, and especially so if there is video of her losing it.

You could be right you know

Oh I didn’t know W&K had acknowledged Harry’s birthday. Putting the two together does seem interesting!

2024…the year of their Shawshank redemption
…….crawling through their own shite!

Twistybranch I know I am 😂

Thing is when Charles passes. The law becomes irrelevant, it isn’t the same for William, he would only have that perogative if it was his own grandkids.

could you have a situation where Harry and Megan go to war over the kids. Sure. Highly feasible.amd yes Harry could ask his father to step in. If Charles did, Megan would have no chance. Anything done would be behind the scenes. We wouldn’t know.

however I see it as more likely Harry will agree to have those kids raised in tne us and he splits his time between uk and the us. He’s going to want them coming back to visit st some point, if he did, a quick legal reminder from Charles would have the way smoothed.

I think she’s starting to give him the ick

I hadn't seen the RF's birthday wishes.. very interesting - I think you have a point @drivinmecrazy

But if he were going to divorce her, would he not have done it before today's big inheritance? Maybe he has, maybe it's all sorted already and they're just timing the announcement 🤷‍♀️

Anyone else feeling a teeny bit sorry for Harry on his birthday

Not really.

He's not in chains and I'm inclined to believe reports that Pa would take darling boy back anytime. I'm also sure that should Harold return with his tail between his legs Pa wields enough clout to clear up even this gigantic mess to everyone's satisfaction.

didnt he say something about not using his inheritance money because he wanted to save it for his kids. Maybe the money is going straight into a trust for them?

didn't lillibet have her first birthday here ? At frogmore so that's not true.

Maybe the birthday greeting from William and Kate is the door being left open a chink, whatever I think it's the right thing to do. They're damned if they do or if they don't, really.

Hopefully they've also sent one of those enormous glitter bomb cards that will be being picked out of the beige decor of Montecito for months to come.

They often do when they are making money for someone - like all those grim CEOs - but once its 'out' and they cause or risk more reputational damage than what they bring in they are out.

Not sure how this works for MM as she doesnt seemingly have any active projects that impact investers? Maybe thats why she has been tralling the internet investing in smaller brands as the big ones wont touch her?

I think if she denies it she risks the 12 doing some sort of legal action.

Ok maybe once…

Also in UK law (dont know which system PH is under) any inheritance does not fall directly to the marriage pot - it stays with the individual unless and until they choose to put it to family use - eg buy a house, put it in joint savings etc once it is there it becomes 50/50 and cannot be reassigned in divorce settlement.

I wonder how much traction there would be this morning if I were to start a new thread,

'What do you admire about the duke and Duchess of Sussex'

Their usual supporters are conspicuous by their absence

The royal family wished Meghan happy 40th. I think it’s normal for them to mark milestone birthdays.

However, I don’t think it’s normal for happily married, family men, to celebrate their 40th by going on holiday with some friends rather than their wife and children.

To be fair he is spending today spending it with Megan and the kids. They have said that.

That was before Charles was King - so presumably A & L were not his wards then?
