I’ve watched that clip from X. He’s saying:

“One member of the family serving is serving the royal family. And the sooner we all get this into our minds and accept it the better. From a defence standpoint [mumble] individual serving is treated as government. And you can see from a defence standpoint that should be the focus and from a government standpoint, you should be looking after [video cuts out]”

Edited

What on earth is he wittering on about? He really shows the value of a speech writer.

Well that’s clear as mud!!
he is just so extremely stupid!! 🙄

Well clearly he’s pontificating on government, defence and RF representation. Which he should not be doing!

Screenshot in case the link doesn’t work!! Pinched from the pr thread!!

Lots of people on X asked Grok to translate it and this is what he actually said:

"...experience and make sure that it's about. We always say one member of the family is serving or all families are serving. So we can get into our minds, accept them. But from a defence standpoint, the individual who serves. You kind of see from a defence standpoint that should be on focus if you're looking after your own."

So, what he's talking about is armed forces families and how people refer to one person serving, when the reality is their entire family who've signed up for it.

Nothing to do with the Royals, for once.

Anyone can pontificate on those subjects, I do pretty regularly. I think he is making it really clear that he is on the outside of all of them, even as he insists he isn't.

In terms of being a member of the royal family still; he is fifth in line to the throne. And if William and KC die and he moved back to the UK he would be the default Regent.

It is crazy that this hasnt been sorted. People die in accidents all the time, it would obviously be very unusual but accidents usually are.
They need to get him out of the succession thing. Imagine him in his khaki outfits whispering amd mumbling on about cleansing. It'd be torture.

Ah, thank you! That makes more sense!

No, that's up to Parliament.
They are Sovereign.
I suspect they would appoint Catherine, possibly with Anne or Edward.
Harry won't get near it.

It's been sorted. All these things are planned and prepared for.

And this is why as @jeffgoldblum says KC needs to remove this pair’s titles.

It is as if Liz Truss still went about acting as if she was important and represents Britain. Oh wait …

Seriously though, they are an embarrassment and we need a clear line in the sand that whatever nonsense they get up to and bollocks that this idiot spouts is nothing to do with the RF at all.

If they had given a cash donation, you can be sure we'd have heard about it.

I’m more inclined to think they’ll have given a donation but they’ll keep quiet about it and the info will be deliberately ‘leaked’ by a hospital employee at the end of the tour.

Lockupyourbiscuits · 15/04/2026 09:37

im not a therapist but it does seem he has overanalysed every bit of his life and every thought that has popped into his head

He doesn’t seem to realise that most people have an internal dialogue in their head but it ticks along in the background

He really thinks his thoughts and beliefs trump ( pun intended) everyone else’s and it gives him license to be the worlds biggest hypocrite

I wonder who is looking after the children - do they have any stability? - he SHOULD be worrying about his connection with them !

OctopusFriend · 15/04/2026 09:40

Also, @Lockupyourbiscuits - he needs to learn that he shouldn't pontificate on everything. He's not an expert. He's not even wise.
Just give it a rest.

He talks about being the best possible version of himself to meet Archie. I guess that included getting high on the gas - if you believe that story.

And whisking his wife out of the hospital straight after a birth with 2 epidurals, such that they were home in two hours. Which would constitute medical negligence in anyone else’s case.

Have a read of the threads you've started and then tell me which posts are hateful.

A stunning black woman who looks half her age and married to a prince with millions in the bank seems to bring out the worst in people.

Oh please

The Mail has an article about Harry's talk to a Movember conference. Apparently he needed to cleanse himself from his past before he became a parent.

Someone in the comments pointed that this didn't include his title!

Didn't include turning down Great Gan-Gan's loot on his 40th either.

Or perma-trying to get his previous level of security reinstated.

Yes, somewhat implausible.

Yes, if my DH had emptied the gas canisters for his own high while I was in labour, there certainly wouldn't have been baby no 2.

I missed that Cathy , I was too busy being annoyed about the exploitation of sick children!!
apparently she was caught on the way into the hospital saying to Harry “ let’s make this quick!”

You have articulated it much better thank you.

I normally find their antics embarrassing/funny but this has actually upset me.

The image of the little lad, with the plasters on his arm (most likely from the chemo) the awkwardness of the teens, all to sell some clothing, make a quick buck and all because of our Royal institution.

And all with the hypocritical backdrop of internet safety.

I am fast becoming a Republican.

It’s beyond disgusting isn’t it, literally using children with cancer to get commission on the clothes you are wearing, The Palace will do fuck all, it’s clear to me now that they are totally ignoring the Sandringham agreement and are performing so called “Royal duties” and their commercial ventures literally at the same time. It will be a tour of the Commonwealth next whilst merching Meghan’s latest outfit and yet again the Palace will do nothing about it.

Harry said in his mental health speech 'you don't have to wait until you are lying on the kitchen floor in a fetal position '. OMG.
