Page 12 | Harry's new interview

Harry has just given an interview quite a long one. I only heard a snippet and i'm totally incensed. Harry has said he doesn't know how long Charles has left. Who says that on TV for the whole nation to hear. What is the matter with the man. He is an absolute disgrace.

That’s not my understanding of how he’s explaining it. He’s saying that he is NOT getting ongoing risk assessments - last one done in 2019. And his security depends on whether he is invited by the royal family or he comes for another reason (at which point it’s a lot lower).

he is also saying that this is different to PMs - who get security regardless of risk assessments and other high profile figures

i have no knowledge obvs if what he is saying is correct. But that’s what he is saying is the situation.

"HE" isn't getting risk assessments not that they arnt being done he just isn't privy to the findings

I don't think Meghan ever planned to live in the UK but I am starting to wonder if she and Harry had a back-up plan of returning here and having all their housing and security costs paid for by the public and are now panicked by that security net not being an option. None of their dilettante projects have flown and they are not drawing in the dollars they need for the lifestyle they want.

Nevermind91 · 02/05/2025 20:19

Oh goody, another chance to hiss and cackle at Harry and Meghan.
Pathetic. No wonder he f*ed off abroad.

Of course it was shocking and upsetting. But the previous poster seemed to want some recognition for crying at Diana's death. Harry himself has said this sort of performative grief created mental health issues for him. It isn't me saying it, it's him.

Show quote history

The royals are public figures. People showed their emotion at Diana’s death and for the late Queen. There’s the public and the personal side to the grief. I thought that H wanted a private life? Why complain about the public opinion when he places himself in the public eye

Just seen Hazbeens interview. He is a disgrace.

Have you seen his latest 'waaaah poor me' interview? He need to stfu and show some class and dignity if he wants reconciliation.

Sorting out stuff around the funeral of his children's mother, I believe. What? Do you think he was downing gin slings and dancing the macarena with hula girls?

Show quote history

He should have been with his children and not allowing them to be paraded. I am starting to change my mind about Charlie. Charles would have have had someone in his team do all the funeral arrangements.

Beachwaves127 · 02/05/2025 20:22

He’s mad I swear. There’s a col crisis impacting everyday ordinary people and all he can think about is himself

MrsMappFlint · 02/05/2025 20:22

What a deeply unpleasant man. I suppose he's stupid, so is more to be pitied than blamed.

Show quote history

No idea. I don't have any time for him myself. Of course, he was only 12 when his mother died, so not sure we can talk about him deliberately placing himself in the public eye on that occasion.

2024onwardsandup · 02/05/2025 20:16

He is saying that he only gets ADEQUATE security when he’s here because the royal family asks him - otherwise it’s like having someone at the end of a phone.

he kinda said he risked his life to come here to charity stuff

others on this thread have queried this.

all the detailed facts of course will not be able to be disclosed.

Show quote history

Who is better able to judge what is 'ADEQUATE security'?

The highly regarded experts in the field?

Or a dim embittered prince in California?

It really is not a shocking thing to say about an elderly man. The context is that Charles isn't talking to him, and that Harry wants to make amends because life is short.
I can't envisage any situation where I wouldn't talk to my children tbh, even if I didn't approve of the way they live or of their spouse. It must be absolutely awful for Harry that his father won't speak to him, but seems to have forgiven the horrific transgressions of his brother, Andrew.

The King cannot speak to Harry because anything he says, beyond hello and goodbye, will find its way into the American media. The same goes for William, (or Kate or the queen). Any sentence uttered beyond the most banal will be repeated to Meghan and thence find its way into the press. That’s the problem for Harry; by being a spiteful blabbermouth who will weaponise anything said to him, he has made it literally impossible for any of his family to have a conversation with him.

More likely they will find people to write books for them, like Pop.

What are you talking about? The footage of the walkabout shows Charles with the boys. At the time, public feeling was such that it was felt the children and Charles must appear, as the monarchy was threatened by public hysteria. It was not Charles's fault - it was the pressure of the wailing public. Surely you remember all this? If not, try Googling.

Meghan is salivating for the next enormous wodge of inherited cash, impatiently waiting for KC to snuff it so she can get her greedy mitts on more millions. She can't divorce H until he's reached his full monetary potential.

We only have Harry’s word for anything. And Harry seems to have implied it’s because of the security issue. Maybe it was and Charles is waiting to after? Who knows? But Harry and meghan live in their own world

But I am sick of the pair of them. They told awful lots of lies haven’t apologised and don’t seem to be wanting to

if he wants a relationship he needs to start grovelling hard

One of the other issues that Harry is missing when he talks about politicians getting security - it's not just the risk to their person, it's the risk to the country. They are all people who have been part of briefings and knowledge about the highest levels of diplomacy and national security. Even years later they still know enough about procedures etc to be a threat if they were kidnapped and tortured.

Individuals like Salman Rushdie are also catalysts for serious outbreaks of violence in public - protecting them is also in part about protecting ordinary members of the public.

Harry is not Diana. And these are different times. If something happened to Harry it would be tragic on a human level but not an issue of national security. It might affect how people view the monarchy if enough people blamed Charles/William for not doing more, but it wouldn't harm the government or destabalise our national security. Harry hasn't understood that he's just not important to national life.

Exactly this. Has no-one ever explained this to him?

Thegirlinthegreenscarf · 02/05/2025 20:30

I am quickly losing patience with Harry. Look at all the shit going on in the UK and world wide at the moment and yet its all about him.

Personally I think the penny has dropped he's actually out and he's in need of £££

The prodigal son wants to return to the fold as he's forgave them!

Still not a good excuse his priorities should be his children not other people. It a shame he was too spineless to say anything. The palace could have put a message out to the public asking for respect. Did they do that?

No wonder poor Harry had issues growing up.

Of course not. Old and wrinkly past middle aged women hold no value to the media.

Show quote history

When she died no-one was allowed to be remotely critical about her but in the years afterwards it was clear that she wasn't as well like as we thought, many people, me included, thought she was vain and very self-centred, having her favourite paps on speed dial. In the week after her death Private Eye got hold of the original Sunday stories many of which were very critical of her life style but were then totally scrapped as the cult of Diana started to be replaced by wailing pieces.

He broke the news to their sons. Then (I think?) he went to Paris to escort Diana's body back as a mark.of respect, leaving their sons safe with grand parents.

The RF wanted the boys to stay privately in Balmoral. They were forced by public opinion (we have a constitutional monarchy) to 'parade' the boys.

It was disgusting. But the blame for that lies with the people who became hysterical and demanded to see them, and the media that whipped it up. It wasn't what their family wanted.

Didn’t harry gets lots of therapy? He shows zero self awareness

BrieHugger · 02/05/2025 20:33

I’ve just watched the interview and I do get his point - no doubt there have been specific credible threats against him and Meghan, no doubt some stomach churning ones about them and their children.

However…. any hatred towards the Sussexes has been caused by the Sussexes. Had they left on good terms I believe the UK would be very welcoming whenever they came to visit, but they’ve made themselves really really unpopular and practically painted targets on their own heads.

Justkeepingplatesspinning · 02/05/2025 20:34

For goodness sake. His father is well into his 70s. Even without a cancer diagnosis, he's likely got 10-20 years left at that age. Totally unnecessary to say he doesn't know how long he has left.
Do you think he spoke to the beeb because he knows he's not getting any more interviews or book deals to write about it in?!
