A continuation of our continuing discussion of our favourite private citizens! 😁

Those state occasions are something, aren't they?
I would love to go to one of those banquets. 😍

Me too! All they had they to do was put up and shut up and accept that they weren't top of the hierarchy in the rf and walk behind people, something that harry didn't seem to have a problem with his entire life until he met meghan. In exchange they would have access to world leaders, any celebrity they wanted to meet, state banquets, historical events, their choice of properties to live in, access to the best schools for their children, free travel - basically an all expenses paid life that most people could only dream of. It surely has to be the fumble of the century, or at least since Edward and Wallis. Yet they still won't back down and admit they are the cause of their own downfall so they continue to crash and burn to ever lower levels. It really is something to witness

Oh ! What a shame that they won’t be invited as private citizens then mylovely!

Oman and Omanis are fabulous and there is a long history and mutual respect between the royal families - the guest list will be very select

MouldyCandy · 10/09/2026 18:05

That's their problem now though - no reliable income.
No brand sponsorship deals, no after-dinner speaking gigs, no podcasts.... just bit parts for an eco-travel company, a MH organisation and some jam/spread and sprinkles.
They've failed at self-employment, noone (sensible) wants to employ them so that leaves them leaching off charities for their "expenses".

Meghans reputation obviously precedes her. Demanding, entitled, rude and a bully. If the likes of the hollywood reporter, which is an industry bible, are willing to write about it, it must be pretty bad. That's why no one wants to work with her.

A listers know how to perform well, because they don't need to bolster their status.

Back in the day I helped run a charity literary evening with Harold Pinter and some other A listers. They all turned up.on time, did their readings, signed copies and then left - thanking the organisers.

The one D lister - who only agreed to come at the last minute having heard about the A listers - came with a retinue, and had to be told to leave after staying on to finish off the complimentary drinks and snacks.

@Thedom These photos … I asked Grok Ai about the knob 🍆 underneath the signature. I’ve screen shot his reply 🤭

H may need to take into consideration that most of us are prone to a little mn head tilt on here.

I was more of a guffaw and a snort rather than a tinkly laugh at his knob signature though.

Starryfifty · 10/09/2026 18:15

A PP mentioned Hamlets would turn out fine. Look at the York girls. The York girls had extended family, which probably took them away from the AMW and Fergie chaos. Hamlets only have their parents

I am still not convinced she is in the UK. A "source" says she was at Soho Farmhouse. Call me cynical but that seems typical of their MO. Then a post from her instagram this week which looked like Cali to me.

I’m half hoping that she and the kids are in Cali and that he is here dipping a toe in the water.

I truly think they’d be happier over there.

That's what it is. She still acts like a d list grifter but thinks her marriage was a shortcut to the a list. Add in her obnoxious royal pretensions and she's obviously pissed of a lot of Hollywood people

I’m not! , if it’s discovered that they lied yet again and that they are not here only Harry is , there will be no coming back from that! , even their most devout fans won’t be able to spin that !
and they will be seen to be liars on the world stage that deliberately led the country , the king , the government on!

Absolutely agree! In which case, why did the RF not allow the same for Harry? Could it be he was too close to the throne and it would show up what all the rest of them were doing?

You can't use titles for commercial gain - this is something that HAM failed to understand

As a working royal you can't muddy the waters between official government policy and your personal thoughts - Harry is a huge liability in the way he spouts off about politics in an uncontrolled way

Perhaps his drawn todge was not anatomically correct or something.

Or perhaps someone helpfully smeared 8 hour cream on it which blurred it out?

Oh, I think the fans will try to spin it. Perhaps we could make a guess who is to blame?
RAVEC, the Home Office, the judiciary, KC, Camilla, Kate, Andy Burnham, Larry the Downing Street cat, that teacher who got cross with him at Eton....

It is his regular signature - it's on his Wikipedia page.

Yep - to be fair he’s been telling us he’s a dick for years….

True but those excuses only work if they were actually here and then fled home in terror!
nothing will excuse pretending that they were here when they were not!
