PR Disasters of the The Duke and Duchess of Sussex continued :

  • So far we have Meg using charity events/sick children/vulnerable adults to merch her fashion, with the launch of her new fashion platform
  • She will be appearing on MasterChef Australia
  • Harry claiming to have had therapy when Archie was born, even though he never sought MH help for his ill wife a few short months earlier.

I think Hazard was slightly in love with Catherine, but also saw William and Catherine as his substitute mummy and daddy. That’s why, in Spare, he’s so whiny about them not having time for him once George came along; and also why his words (and those of his proxies like Scobie) about Catherine sound like the script of a spurned ex - she was cold, she was a bitch, she’s just there to churn out babies and is not actually loved by her husband, etc etc.

So cruel indeed. William and C must have some restraint. I wonder how they would manage it if the gruesome twosome were brought back

PigglyWigglyOhYeah · 17/04/2026 18:03

They won’t be ‘brought back’. Harry said just this week how much he hated being part of the RF and old Meg was moaning on again about what a terrible life she has, whilst cheerfully raking in money out of death, terrorism and seriously ill children.

I doubt for one minute that they will be , but if Charles is foolish enough to allow it , it will be short lived! Putting emotion aside and focusing on the facts for a moment… William is heir …William will be king ( possibly sooner than we would like ) , Harry is currently 5th in line , son of the present king , soon he will be brother of the king , this is not a particularly important or new position, it has been shared throughout the ages by the likes of … Margaret…Anne …Edward…Andrew…., they all only had the prestige and power allowed by the sitting monarch and still as time went on they became less and less important or interesting….harry will only have what Charles allows ( if he does) then only what William allows…even then soon enough he will be a footnote, a curiosity with no real importance or power.

In places like X and Reddit I see stuff about how Harry is actually lovely and Meghan is responsible for what's happened. But Harry is not lovely, he's a spiteful little cunt. The way he's turned on people who showed him so much care and support is vile, and reveals his true personality IMO. Another one with no empathy for others.

I really hope you're right about them never returning. But I think if the MSM start bombarding us with articles about how Harry's mental health is suffering so much in California and how much he actually does love the UK....watch out.

BigWillyLittleTodger · 17/04/2026 18:21

Yes it says everything but it’s not the MSM which is utterly fawning.

Indianrollerbird · 17/04/2026 18:32

@MissFenellaPrism @Starryfifty @Noodledog yes, all the narrative about Catherine being "Cruella" also feels like projection from someone who truly is a spiteful, nasty piece of work.

In all the videos and pictures of Harry with Catherine, she's showing nothing but kindness and sisterly attention to him. She could have easily demanded that he be excluded from the Royal Foundation initiatives, and that it be run on behalf of the future king and queen only, but she didn't. They let him third wheel for years.

I always think of that picture of a stroppy, red faced Harry with his armed cross looking like he's having a toddler tantrum at a sporting event, and Catherine clearly trying to cajole him.

Except that all the other ex-Spares you name and their spouses settled into their fading roles, accepting that their fame would dwindle but they'd still be part of the family and looked after financially.

Harry went off the reservation, and has a fame-hungry wife who is going to use her royal connection to merch and merch and merch.

When they write the history of the final decades of the British Royal Family, the last-but-one chaper will have "Markle" in the title.

After Jordan and Australia, I think the RF has been irredeemibly Markled. KC3 is not managing this situation.

@jeffgoldblum ….harry will only have what Charles allows ( if he does) then only what William allows…even then soon enough he will be a footnote, a curiosity with no real importance or power.

Considering how vindictive he is now, with no real reason after all he wanted to leave. He hasn't been punished for his lies or nastiness. Imagine how nasty he will get if pushed completely out. I don't think he has the sense to go quietly, he is more interested in revenge and causing maximum pain and anguish. Hopefully ANL and Sentabale give him enough of a kicking to rethink his attitude but I doubt it. If he loses financially the only leverage the RF have is money to shut him up and then there is the problem of mergie....she is never going to go quietly.

Yes, those images put me in mind of her dealing with Louis. The difference being that Louis has grown out of it now.

True @Rhaidimiddimbut imagine how stupid he will make himself if he does continue!
shades of an aging old man sat in the bar telling everybody how important he used to be!

Truth has a habit of coming out eventually! And if all the rumours are true both of them have far more to lose from it than the rf ! 🤷‍♀️

Not true. If any of the rumours are true - it will be the AMW scenario all over again (but with different allegations) . But this time with W& C complicit.

A very fitting epithet.

@IAmATorturedPoet - I think owing to their unpopularity in the UK not even H&M would have the brass neck to try to do a faux royal tour over here. I think it would take more than stumping up for the security - more martial law 😂

On the other hand I would hope this tour will mean the men in grey suits make sure , no matter how much pa bothering he does , KC will not open the Invictus games Can you imagine him being photographed with Meghan and her clothing being advertised for the commission. Even KC can't be that soft about his son. I think a diplomatic - no H you were given this as your project , we'd hate to take anything away from you - would suffice .

Last year there was a poster who insisted that H and M and W and C would be standing together at the opening of Invictus Birmingham. I was so astounded I took a screenshot !
Poster said they were in PR and was adamant that H and M would return to the Royal fold.
Zara and Mike might take one for the team but I cannot imagine any senior Royals getting involved other than a Good Luck message.
Plus the Games clash with Camilla’s 80th and there are some events planned .

Yes, where did our Greek food loving, PR expert disappear to? I doubt her prediction of W&C will come true, unless there’s a big scandal and Harry is deposed from Invictus. I think Harry won’t give a shit if the royals don’t turn up if, in his mind, he’s become the alternative King Pa, carrying on with the model the Meghans have formulated in Australia. I have just been watching (a disgusted) Tom Sykes who thinks they will be emboldened to do a similar “tour” in Birmingham this July. Apparently the palace courtiers are pissed off, but as ever, nothing is happening.

JSMill · 17/04/2026 19:28

BasiliskStare · 17/04/2026 19:36

I am not sure what else H has up his sleeve though to start making demands of the RF. Maybe I am being naive (won't be the first time , won't be the last 😊) Something else prior to his flounce ? - because he can't have a lot post that.

I hope that commentator is ok.

I can well imagine the palace are frustrated but there is little they can do. Removing titles won't suddenly make Harry not Charles' son and that is what they are selling. Far better to take them off the website and then just ignore them

He will invent something if he needs to. Seems he embellished quite a lot in the past
