When the money stops flowing in? They are finished as a brand, MM has nothing original to offer and is tainted with the toxicity that has surrounded them. She personally has ‘bullying’ allegations and high staff turnover as well as her blatant dishonesty. There is evidence that they are no good at making podcasts / documentaries etc so no big income there. There is increasing ‘interest’ from US authorities into their financial dealings … what next? Surely KC3 won’t fund them, so how will they keep going?

What exactly are these high level discussions yourself and the previous poster mentioned? When are they scheduled? , what is their purpose?
who holds them?

Seems like the royalist fans are getting nervous 😂

I’m not a royalist and I’m asking a fairly straightforward question, what are these high level discussions?

Well quite! , I’m also curious about these high level discussions, what are they ?
do government officials attend? , is this something that we have heard about before?

Not being there it's hard to say, jeff, but clearly there's a lot of planning needed around the RF's interests and activities and I'd be surprised if government officials aren't involved in at least some of them

Then of course there's the weekly Prime Minister's audience, and I'd give a lot to be a fly on the wall during one right now - though given his own choices and decisions I doubt Starmer's in much of a position to query the arrangements of others

StillHereLol · 12/02/2026 13:19

High level discussions = monarch/future monarchs=meetings.

Not too difficult to understand.

Ok , thanks I knew I could count on you for a straight forward response, so posters are making meetings for planning activities and other such things sound like some secret summit by calling them high level discussions?
I obviously knew about the meetings with the prime minister but discounted that because we all know they are with the monarch only , I believe Charles used to occasionally meet with the pm too? But obviously William would definitely not be included in either.

Planner2026 · 12/02/2026 13:29

My first thought is that Meghan will find a way to make money - probably act again.

Or it’s possible that their marriage won’t last and she’ll marry a third time, making sure that he’s got plenty of money.

God knows what Harry will do if they split. The kids will stay in America so he’ll either be stuck there or he’ll have to return to England and be backwards and forwards to see them.

Ignoring your rudeness for a moment, so basically you don’t actually know and are speculating with no actual foresight or evidence.

As ever I get where you're coming from, jeff, but wouldn't want to assume William isn't involved in meeting the PM if he actually wanted to, especially if his father was incapacitated with his ill health

It's a different thing I know, but even Sovereign's Consent was originally supposed to be just for the monarch and somehow got extended to Charles, and lo and behold that's now been passed on to William

Having secured yet more influence you didn't really think they'd willingly pass it up did you?? Wink

True ! What I meant was the traditional weekly meeting, obviously I imagine Charles or William would be able to set up a meeting with the pm if they wish , just as I imagine the pm or government would set up a meeting with either of them if they need to discuss foreign tours or state visits.
however both posters were framing these high level discussions as something Machiavellian for discussing other topics.
basically trying to tie William in particular with Epstein and his uncles crimes , I very much doubt starmer would drop by and ask William about his uncles behaviour, when clearly he couldn’t be bothered to ask or check on his own party members.

Obviously I’m speculating.But presumably there are meetings/discussions about the direction/future of the family? About any potential future crises and how they should be dealt with? I don’t see why this is remotely controversial!

Because framing it as “high level discussions” makes it sound a particular way and it definitely seems that people are trying desperately to make William as culpable as Charles for Andrews behaviour, and speculation is fine but stating it in a fairly factual manner when it’s only opinion without evidence leads to people being smeared for something that they haven’t done .

Exactly who was involved in the sandringham summit that was to do with family matters? Which is why it wouldn’t be too difficult to work out if discussions were had about Andrew then both Charles and William would be involved.

So the family having a meeting with Harry about him possibly stepping back or changing his role is evidence that Charles and William would be involved?

I obviously didn’t make myself clear. By “high level” I meant high level family meetings. Presumably with advisors present? Or maybe not? It is unrealistic to think such meetings take place. Frankly, I also think it’s unrealistic to think that William doesn’t know as much about the Andrew situation as Charles does. Which personally I think is much more than we do. I know others don’t agree. As I said, I’m speculating. Incidentally I don’t think either Charles or William are culpable in AMW’s crimes. But I do think they are probably equally involved in the damage limitation exercise. Which some might call a cover up.

I’m sure the family does meet up to discuss things and it’s obvious that since the new information has come to light it would be discussed particularly as his titles and house have been removed but nobody has any evidence that either Charles ( more likely) or William had any idea as to the levels Andrew plumbed with Epstein.
if starmer didn’t know about mandelson why would you think a brother and nephew have more information about it.
or are you assuming that Andrew told them the truth about what he actually did.

ah I see you have edited after my reply!

Meghan is heading towards 50 . Tricky for even good actresses to get good parts let alone a mediocre one with an unimpressive acting CV . As for marrying again , she has a lot of baggage , is older and there is no way she will give up her title unless it is removed by KC or future KW.

No naughtiness intended. Just one post is easier. I didn’t at any point suggest Charles or William are “culpable”!
I don’t think the Starmer/Mandelson analogy is relevant here. The fact remains that the RF paid a socking chunk of hush money. And it seems unlikely that Charles and William were unaware of that. And they wouldn't have done it unless they had been told more than we knew then-or even know now.

William is the next heir we k ow the future heir is in training for most of their lives so they can take over. Of course they meet up and have meetings we know this because of the Sandringham Summit in January 2020, where the Queen Charles, and William met to discuss Harry and Meghan's decision to step back as senior royals.

Therefore you can say they do meet and high level meetings. They would have met up to discuss Andrew too.

If William is not i cluded how is supposed to be prepared to take over.

That was reported in the media.

Interesting you seem to forget that Jeffgoldblum ..considering you are all over everything H&M do. Conveniently forgetting this to defend William etc. Or is it a case of recollections may vary with you
