How many second fathers does this man need? Elton, Charles Spencer, Foster. Ridiculous nonsense. H is a grown man with his own children

I wonder how these men feel about having a middle aged surrogate son foisted upon them? 🤨
Or are they even aware of H’s nonsense?

The giggling and hand covering the mouth looks very like fake modesty. As if she’s saying “oh, all this fuss for little-old-us.”

But of course, I don’t think those guys in kilts were there for them.

Exactly what I thought.

I've always thought that Harry had a 'lot of his Mum in him' as he boasted about in his tawdry book, however it was all of her worst parts; self obsession, self pity and a severe lack of intelligence.

He really does. If he had the emotional intelligence, he would realise his mother played a part in his upbringing too. However, she's easy fodder to monetise on, Meg the reincarnation etc.

Well, Mark Dyer’s getting sued by Sentebale.

H could be hitting him for a few million. Please H, do something with the hair

So I said to my trichologist, I don’t care what you do - just stop me looking like Harry! And he did, god love him. You want his number, man? Nice guy, don’t tweak his fuckin nipples for god’s sake.

Re the multiple dads: is it just because he doesn’t have any friends his own age?

He could just call them mates. However I sense these "father figures " are purely transactional. One way of course

One thing that seems really bizarre is that HAM PR have briefed their appearance at the David Foster Foundation event as HAM's "date night". 😳

I mean a rubber chicken dinner at a charity fundraiser among hundreds of people might be a worthy cause - but a "date night"??

I realised that it was something that HAM PR have briefed as both of their favourite US publications (People/pagesix) have used exactly that term.

KimWexlersPonyTail · 09/08/2026 19:36

I actually think William had quite a difficult childhood with his mother. The marriage was failing, she was having affairs and I think may have involved him far too much. Harry being so much younger would have probably been unaware. Maybe William even protected him? Similar thing happened to me.

Starryfifty · 09/08/2026 19:56

HAM must have some popularity in US if they invited to dinner parties and charity gigs. Maybe they are building their profile (again) there ?

Noodledog · 09/08/2026 20:11

I'm not sure if this has already been posted, or even if it's 100% reliable, but this came up on my Reddit feed and I thought it was interesting given the discussion about David Foster (who I have to admit I only heard of today...)

Didn’t Harry also have another mother figure - a woman in South Africa where he retreated for a short spell after his last trip to view Sentabale projects?
Plus there was some story about Godmothers and why the Godmother’s book store was named?

Yes he did. She's a film maker I believe. He went to her after the Sentable fall out

ShamedBySiri · 09/08/2026 20:18

Here’s the Godmother’s story.

It’s very odd - attributing almost any adult who has been helpful in some way with being a surrogate parent. 🤷‍♀️
And of course the Royals were the family Meghan never had. 🙄🤦‍♀️

Starryfifty · 09/08/2026 20:31

Well Oprah is a shark. Not much of a godmother now. Apparently HAM tried to get a second interview and she said no

What on earth did they want to shite on about this time? There can’t be anything left to say, surely?

an interview about healing apparently. However OW the shark is only interested in post divorce interview

KilkennyCats · 09/08/2026 20:43

Healing? The poor halfwits still think they’re the injured parties, don’t they?

Pair of dummies.

Starryfifty · 09/08/2026 20:43

I really hope HAM encourage their children to stay well clear of celebrity. It's so bloody shallow. Oprah, David foster, etc . No meaningful friendships at all. It's fine for Meg. She has the skin of a rhino and these are the relationships she has always had but do she and H really want this for their children?

I'd say it's a ploy to get Back in with the RF
