Will they stay at Royal Lodge? I really hope it all works out for KC and to see his grandchildren would be lovely.

Harry is wearing a baby blue linen shirt and a black 'Invictus Australia' baseball cap. Meghan is wearing a darker blue and white striped shirt.

So whats yourr position on in house staff commenting on Williams temper...are you saying you don't believe them. Yet you believe in house staff saying Meghan is a bully.

There have been numerous investigations conducted by separate, highly regarded industry publications into MM bullying of staff.

Personal testimonies from both victims and witnesses of MM’s atrocious behaviour in the workplace have all been published after watertight legal review. They show a consistent pattern of behaviour over various time periods and on both sides of the Atlantic before, during and after her time in the Royal Family. Some staff have reported requiring professional intervention following the mental stress they suffered.

Not once have the highly litigious couple challenged these reports legally for libel or slander. Why would they choose to let this stand?

I already posted the biographers names they will have listed their sources in their books so why don't you go look it up. I don’t need to repeat it.

So you have no idea. Best leave it there, tbh, as a vague memory you can’t substantiate.

That and the circularity and missed points are not evidence of the things you say they are.

I’m sorry but people can appear to be “classy” when they have wealth and privilege which enables them to live behind what is essentially a blockade where they can employ people to speak, or not, on their behalf.

The RF have a long history of cutting off people whom they judge to be disloyal.

This is problematic when “loyalty” is prized above anything else, even alleged criminality and abuse of vulnerable women for example.

So H & M are placed firmly outside of the circle of wagons and AMW (as we can see from his brief appearance at Sandringham driving trials) is still firmly within it.

Is that classy? Really?

Is paying off an abused woman to the tune of £12 million to avoid going to trial an act of class?

Not appearing to say or do anything overtly, like the late QE2, rather than “classy” can be the equivalent of burying your head in the sand, and on some occasions, can be downright negligent eg covering up AMW’s behaviour.

IMHO, an act of “class” by Charles, if he had any gumption, would be to employ one of the top mediation firms in the country and invite Camilla, William, Catherine, Harry and Meghan, to thrash out their grievances in private and actually talk to one another face to face and genuinely try to gain an understanding of each other’s positions and put an end to this soap opera! It could be easily done if the will was there!

The trouble is I think that having the journalists focus on H&M rather than AMW atm is too useful to them!

Recklessismymiddlename · 03/07/2026 08:37

Why the hell should William and Kate sit down with Harry and Meghan after everything that vile pair have said and allowed to be said to be said about the Waleses? I can’t believe people spout this rubbish. Seriously? To sit down with your bullies? No way.

I don't think the best mediation firm in the world could make one jot of difference , because of the personalities involved. Also, M and H would go straight to the media and blab about it, twisting everything to make it look like they are victims . That's just the way they operate. Successful mediation depends on a willingness to engage and some sort of maturity on the part of all parties.

According to reports AMW made a brief appearance at the event , spoke to no one then disappeared .

He ( deservedly) lost his home , titles, status etc. Personally I think he should be in jail but the legal process is slow.
None of the above shows him to be firmly in the Royal circle . The circle that H and M chose to leave and now want to barge back into .
Also , there is no evidence how much was paid to Virginia.

Also, H&M would go straight to the tabloids of their choice and sell all the details. From their perspective, of course. "Their truth", of course.

AnAutumnCrow · 03/07/2026 08:51

H&M love having journalists focus on them! Hence the WhatsApp group that channels Sussex PR directly to journalists at the BBC, ITV, Daily Beast and the Mail. Yes, the Mail.

Harry is actually very reticent about Andrew. He’ll blab and bullshit about everyone else except for Andrew, Sarah and the Griftettes. Brief mentions in Spare, one frankly unbelievable and one as part of Harry’s bleat about security, and a later denial he ever hit Andrew, and that’s it.

And the riyal biographers have witnessed it themselves and one interviewed numerous household staff...so again sre you calling those staff liars? What's the difference? Staff on each side interviewed yet one side is believed the other isn't...very biased view that only personal testimonials from staff from one side are credible.

I think you only have to look at the high turnover of staff in H and M’s camp to think there is a problem .
The Wales family have had the same nanny for 13 years and many other long term staff .

Spot on !

Mylovelygreendress · 03/07/2026 09:34

And H was quick enough to deny punching AMW . Frankly I would have thought more of him if he had !

Thedom · 03/07/2026 09:35

Yes, Catherine and William are classy, Andrew, Harry and Meghan definitely not !

I do think the fact those 3 are always lumped together with Andrew being used as the benchmark for Harry & Meghan tells its own story ! Speaks volumes.

I have researched the included links , neither books say anything about William or Catherine bullying staff! , the worst that was mentioned was that , Shock horror occasionally a married couple argue behind closed doors !!

You are so missing the point, no one is saying it may not be the case, , posters are saying it’s 3rd hand knowledge and he certainly doesn’t behave like that in public, whereas we have all seen the Sussex’s in action, Harry being a racist, throwing punches , and we all heard and watched Harry & Meghan bullying and being derogatory about Harry’s family, plus we have seen Meghan bullying and being demeaning to people in public.

it’s a whole different scenario, and it’s confirmed by a massive amount of H&M ex employees, on both sides of the Atlantic in various professional capacities, noting to do with the RF or Catherine and William, saying they are workplace bullies, even if those employees had to remain anonymous because of the Sussex NDA’s

Yes, none of those authors claim that William has a bad temper. Jobson refers to him getting "frustrated".
They have nowhere near exhibited the appalling behaviour, attitude and mendacity of the Sussexes.

See you say confirmed by ex employees you are willing to believe it even on that, but if ex employees talk about Williams temper because you have not seen it for yourself you dont believe them. Dismissing their accounts. Thats my point on the contradiction and hypcrocrisy.

You can't say we have ex employees saying things and we believe it when it comes to one person and not choose not to when its about someone else.

I find that very interesting indeed. We know about Harry's vicious and boorish behaviour, drunk, out of control, slapping people etc.
Yet the moment he's accused of punching AMW he very swiftly issues a denial.
So Harry will criticise and bad mouth so many members of the RF for quite minor things, but Andrew?
Tumbleweed..... 🧐

Thedom · 03/07/2026 09:59

I think if you have multiple people from various unrelated organisations, including their own employees, in both the UK and US, saying they exhibit the same behaviour in private that we see ourselves in public, it’s far more believable.

I don’t think anyone has seen William throw a temper tantrum in public.

Indeed and the worst comment was that William was “ hotheaded “ ! , although the comment about Catherine having a “Buddhist style calm “ did make me laugh! Oh and William was sad Charles never gave him piggy backs! 🤣 , whoever his sources are had definitely been on the sauce! 😁
