Royals scurry away to Scotland when Harry arrives in London

This is hilarious, Harry comes to London for a few days for a court case and suddenly the king, Camilla, William & Kate all need to go to Scotland for a week or two (probably in helicopters).

In my experience, the family members that run and hide are the ones who don't want any attention on their actions. Hope Harry wins his case.

To be fair OP is repeating what a news article has wrote...so if the reporter got it wrong its canf be OPs fault

But she didn't need to start a thread about it.

Quite. A cursory check would have supplied her/him with the facts.

another thread where the op is reaching for any reason to start a thread to bash Harry.

I couldn't tell from the OP who they were trying to bash, could have been Harry or the royals.

You can see here BB trying to be nice to his mum but Victoria is giving him the cold shoulder. So she withholds her affection from him, probably because she's angry as BB and his wife weren't complying with the Beckham brand rule book.

To me it seems Victoria has been not very nice to her daughter in law. Nicole looks genuinely upset and sad, maybe because she felt bullied.

@BeaTee Isn't there a Beckham thread your post would be better on?

It's just news to them. Exactly the same reasons Millie Dowler's phone was hacked.

But DL is not a celebrity or a murder victim, she's a campaigner. I really can't imagine what the DM would hope to gain by hacking her?

Just a bit stupid for reading something in The Mirror and regurgitating it as fact 🙄

You missed the T after Hapless.

The missing T , sounds like a good name for either a band or a detective movie! 🤣

He might be an embarrassment to some, but if he and all the others in the case are correct in their belief that they were hacked repeatedly then I hope they win.

This isn't just about Harry. The likes of Doreen Lawrence deserve the truth about what happened and a proper apology and recompense for it.

The truth might be that The Daily Mail didn't do it, tho. Although the court case can only establish that there is no, or not enough, evidence that they did it.

I doubt this court case will satisfy anyone's need for "truth".

Hey, Haters! There are plenty of reasons to come to Scotland besides Harry. Have you really never had a sudden urge to have a closer look at the Falkirk Wheel?

The Pitlochry salmon ladder.

She is a victim of murderers. You're splitting hairs. It's news, that's all they care about.

It's not an issue of belief - if they can prove their case they will win.

Their case has looked questionable at best, with a key witness withdrawing, stories of threats/intimidation towards potential witnesses, and warnings from the judge regarding payments to witnesses and trawling for other cases.

It's also possible for one or more of the claimants to win and others lose.

Is the children’s play park still in Pitlochry? The one with the excellent health and safety metal rides?

At no point in that article does it say the RF scurried anywhere - and it clearly says the RF plans were already in place.

The spin is all on the OP.
Yet more PR distracting from the ongoing bin fire in Montecito.

And I'll throw in Culzean Castle and grounds.

Mylovelygreendress · 20/01/2026 12:10

Edinburgh Castle . Stirling Castle.

oscalo · 20/01/2026 12:14

I'd like to see a reconciliation. Families such as theirs should be an example to others and bury the hatchets. Charles is a bit of a softie IMV, and I think he'd like to be on good terms again but is probably henpecked by QCam, and bullied by his other son. Charles seems rudderless.

But then again, I wonder how Andy's move to oblivion is going? Bet he won't have leaking pipes, condensation, and worry about bills either will he, and it all took KC a while to do anyway. Hence my thinking that he is soft and doesn't want confrontation.

On the other hand he might be a hardnosed dickhead. Who would know? We only see the bits of them that are the good bits. PR'd to within an inch of their (visible to us) lives.

So there, that's my take on it.

MissFenellaPrism · 20/01/2026 13:48

Charles is probably "hen pecked"?! What a horrible, sexist expression.
Camilla is strong and assertive and has done excellent work to support victims of domestic abuse, among other things.
Perhaps people would prefer her to know her place, make jam, arrange flowers and cling onto Charles at every opportunity.

No idea, sorry! Used to go there when the DCs were small, but haven't vidited for 20 years.
