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.

I referenced several people i didn't specifically say it was Lacey. TOm Quinn interviewed his employees. Of course you just cherry pick to suit your narrative

You so did, in your own words you cited Robert Lacey as a source, tough it doesn’t suit your spin.

There is evidence you simply don't accept it. Those are not the same thing. I've already cited reputable royal biographers such as Robert Lacey

Ooh, an actual lie rather than just a lack of proof, how exciting 🫠

It's just awful. They can behave like idiots, but using the children as pawns is shameful.

The children are the only currency they have left, all their other money making projects in the US have dried up.

Wouldn't it be great if all the media agreed to cover the participants in the Invictus games and not this pair. It was disgraceful, the lack of real coverage when it was in Vancouver.

So, as I understand it, when a poster references royal biographers interviewing household staff in relation to PW's temper, other posters are not to infer that these are the royal biographers who actually wrote about PW's temper

It would be great , unfortunately the media are in it for profit and clicks means more money, judging by the poor viewing figures for the invictus programme on Netflix, the public are not interested in enough numbers for them to do this.

Definitely not myrtle ! And we definitely are not allowed to actually point out the biographers in question actually didn’t write what is being forwarded.

You understand correctly, myrtle.

that Sounds good!
im breaking with tradition and having a rose !
however I’m undecided between the very nice ( and pricey ) pork tomahawk chops or lamb rack!!🤔

Oh I like that wine @Mylovelygreendress I was a Marlborough Savvy B gal for a long time but my new spiritual home is amongst the Spanish white riojas

Indeed @jeffgoldblum given the posters insistence, I was quite surprised, nay even shooketh to read on RL's website a named source saying how the "Cams" are 'really nice to them [the staff]

@DaisyDooley I (and I'm sure others) see it as you do, it's a typical pattern of posting seen across many of these threads, over a long period of time and it's extremely tedious (and can't be disguised).

jeffgoldblum · 05/07/2026 00:16

I agree with @IAmATorturedPoet and I agree with you @DaisyDooley. However no doubt I will be more likely to face the wrath of khan for saying so! 😁

Calling me a liar doesn't refute the published accounts. If you think the biographers or former staff are unreliable, explain why. Simply saying it's "unproven" isn't evidence. And now you're calling me "nasty" on what basis? What have I actually said that's nasty?

Disagreeing with you or citing published sources isn't being nasty. If you think I've said something specific that's offensive, point it out instead of making personal accusations.

So ‘sources’close to the Sussex’s are claiming their request to stay at Windsor was turned down and their request to use taxpayer funded Royal helicopters was also turned down, along with Charles not intervening to get their requested armed security, leading to their view they are not being supported by Charles in their efforts to have their family rendezvous.

If this is true, I guess that explains why London is now off the itinerary, rather than a terrorist threat against Harry and Invictus.

Good! I'm glad it's been turned down. Arrogance personified!

Well done Charles.

Oh well at least they know where they stand now there’s no need to ask again.

Honestly, it very much ‘sounds’ like their level of entitlement so highly suspect there’s truth in there! Very pleased charles didn’t agree, I suspect there’s truth would have been much unrest amongst us peasants who are paying for this UK grift tour!
no doubt Invictus will pay in Birmingham hence her toxicness may arrive in as expensive a style as they can steal out of the IVG coffers

Can you imagine it ?

Harry and Meghan offered royal accommodation
JSMill · 05/07/2026 11:00

I think it makes sense that they have been offered BP but wanted Windsor. It’s recently been announced that the King will not live in BP. Staying there would show the world that they are being kept at arms length.

MouldyCandy · 05/07/2026 11:08

I can get over the fact they, allegedly, demanded a Royal helicopter to ferry them around during their trip. Their sense of entitlement is off the chart.

I agree that the recent KC3 announcement would make them feel that they were being housed in the corporate event space / guest annex - not in the bosom of the RF. They don’t want the minimising spectacle of being timed (50 mins!) by the paps for an appointment with KC3. They want to give the impression they are all frolicking around on the lawns/quads etc 24/7 with KC3 - even if they don’t get the photo opp.

Also IIRC didn’t they request Windsor Castle itself (not one of the estate properties) as their official home when they were WRF?

They just want the Disnification of it all - blue light motorcades with outriders screeching in and out of a castle.
