William's non attendance to important events

[Spectre8]

Since there is a flurry of discussion on another thread its probably best to create a thread for it to take place here and not derail another one.

So William is not attending a number of important events the recent one being the VJ day..lots of you think he should have after all he is the future King and if he can't make time for these things then it begs the question what is the point of them?

So discuss away...what should he turning up to, what is his actual role if he starts to not do these types of things...

Of course I know why they got one. I never denied it. They have certain occasions which Catherine is required to appear at and look smart and put together. I don't blame her at all. As I have said many people use them now including my DIL for a short time. Why do you refer to yourself as a commoner? That's so sad that you compare yourself to others and find your position in life lacking.

Where I work people get 3 months sick pay and then Statutory Sick pay (a pittance) before applying for Incapacity Benefit (another pittance and only if you can get it). Many people come back to work then because they have to; others are forced to work part time only - sort of like Kate - but their pay is also cut to part time. Whereas Kate is lavishly rewarded whether she works or not.

I am all for people being able to recover properly and certainly don't believe in anyone (including Kate) being forced to work when they can't, and maybe she does need to scale back somewhat while she recovers. But Kate is seemingly able to ski on black runs during some of her multiple holidays, as well as sit through hours-long Wimbledon matches in the hot sun.....it is hard to believe she could not do a lot more than she does. And let's face it even before her illness she did not have a reputation for being a workhorse.

Carol moved in when the eldest was born and is a “hands on” grandmother. They have vast amounts of support. They clearly don’t go it alone so why try and pretend they do?

Well yes, as long as the RF is represented that's all that matters. Obviously if the king is there, William doesn't need to be!

Carol has never moved in! What makes you think that? She lives with her husband in Buckinghamshire.

Are you confused with Doris living with Meghan?

It’s well reported. But yes, it’s all “misinformation”

Some of us are not ‘royalists’ but in favour of a constitutional monarchy over a republic.

I would be open to a republic if the right model was proposed and it included protections for the Crown assets and historical archives and art collections.

I’ve not heard a compelling argument for an attractive republic option yet though that would match what we’d lose from the current set up.

So those stories about Carol making supermarkets open up additional checkout lanes are false? I was her biggest fan for that! 😮

Your claims are wrong. They have no live-in staff. At most—if that article is even accurate—they had a night nurse for three months after the birth of their baby. The children’s grandmother does not live with them. This is my last reply to you; you’re spreading misinformation just for engagement. If you’re bored, get back to work instead of posting nonsense. You’re judging someone’s private and professional life while spending your own work hours commenting on an online forum.

Catherine's sister Pippa got the better deal IMO. Billionaire husband and anonymity. They can spend their time whatever way they like, and their money too of course! Perfect.

Where are you getting that her mother lives with them. Tik tok is not a reliable news source or Facebook.

He does a lot of work 'under the radar' that is not hitting the news.

If that is the case, how do you know about it?

It means a night nannie is the preserve of the wealthy and many people have zero help. And just bloody get on with it.

So you’re happy for George, Charlotte, Louis and any future royal children having their lives mapped out from birth?

Well as I said it depends what you mean by " wealthy" . I know several people who have used and they are not uber rich as Royals are.

🤣🤣

So just very rich, not uber rich?

How silly
the Royals are not struggling day to day with a mortgage, renting, using a food bank and worrying themselves sick about their kid being bullied at school.

Do you know what lives they have in the future? Have you consulted Baba Vanga?

I generally like W&K but yeah I'm not bowled over by their work ethic. By the time they stop using their kids as an excuse they'll be using their old age as an excuse.

W wears a big coat and runs around saying " I will say this only once" He then gives money to poor people as he steps over them.

Your post makes no sense in relation to the nanny.
The RF have a nanny or Nannies.
so what? Many people do .

The rest of your point while true is nothing to do with having a nanny or not 🤷‍♀️

The point is that despite all of this support, they don’t pull their weight

You say that but they do maybe have to worry about many people on here bullying them and their children on this thread today.
