Beyonce in London for her 45th birthday no HAM invite. Thought Meg said she was a dear friend?

Everyone is a dear friend or a bitter enemy!

Certainly they could prevent official foreign visits on the UK's behalf, but if Charles was stupid enough to want Harry front and centre over here I'd expect no more than the mewling about it being a "family matter" we've had too often before

The republican side of Labour were previously very supportive of H&M, seeing them as 'bright young things' and disruptors of the monarchy, so I think in earlier days would have been supportive.
However, politicians as a whole have been burnt by the AMW scandal, and I suspect are still afraid of what else will come out (from their own group), so I would expect them to take a hard line on any official involvement by Harry.

Also, proper left wingers are unlikely to support people who wish to remain royal, with the titles, status and privilege, but aren't even loyal to the UK.

They weren’t invited to PP’s wedding. It’s not like PP thought they couldn’t afford the air fare. The only A list thing they were invited to in six years in California was the mum from the Kardashians birthday. I believe people who move in aristocratic and celebrity circles would prefer to stay in W’s good books. I don’t see them getting many invites.

And they butchered any relationship they had with Kardashian's after that.

Well, that will reduce the number of viewers in the UK who might otherwise have watched it . . . .

To be fair to Peter Philips, we don’t know he didn’t invite H&M, he may well have done so and they chose not to go. (if they had, it would have made the wedding all about H&M not the bride and groom.)

We would have heard about it if they were invited

Didn't HAM put out all of those stories in their favourite PR mouthpieces (People etc) saying that they had been "snubbed" with no invitation?

Are we going to be told, yet again, the story of baby Prince Archie who felt a 'sweet' connection to a picture that was connected in some way to Diana?

MaturingCheeseball · 07/09/2026 12:06

Hilarious! I hope it’s true… it just sounds marvellously horrific 🫣

There are no failures, Jeff! Only other people whose mistakes have an impact.

I can't wait. Do you remember when "The Bench" came out, and the reviews on here?
Very funny.

I think there are 2 versions ~ one is to do with a picture which was already in the first house they rented after their Freedom Flight. Archie toddled over to athe picture and seemed interested in it. When H&M looked at the picture they came up with a connection, somewhat tenuous, that connected the picture to Diana

The second story was about a photograph of Diana which was displayed in their house which M says Archie was drawn to

I'd heard a similar story about a Christmas bauble in their house.

Yes, I think the stories are often similar. I always felt the one about the pilot who knelt beside her on the Freedom Flight and thanked her for her service was quite similar to the one about the Protection Officer who comforted her when she cried that she had really tried to fit in . . . .

Yes, I heard the Thank You For Your Service event on "The Freedom Flight".
It does remind me of the ",dancing in the streets of South Africa" claim.

I thought a photo of Princess Diana was on display in the delivery room?
