What is in it for Ian Wace? What does he get out of this arrangement?

There is no such thing as a free lunch....

It's crazy when you think about it... HaM are millionaires and they are being given this incredible accommodation. Yet there are so many homeless people in the UK.

And I think it is very odd that they would release footage that identifies where they are when they are so concerned about security.

He is linked to Soros, whose Foundation is linked to funding for the faux -royal tours HAM made.

KC3 was right to issue that "they're not with us" guidance letter, because HAM are marks in the same was AMW was.

I think this is maybe more cat and mouse to see if the media picks it up and sends any press near the estate. I really hope no-one takes the bait and they’re left in peace. Until they can’t take being ignored any more and they post a what3words of their location on Meghan’s Instagram story.

There isn't tough quarantine rules in UK.

If you are coming from the right country.

Harry should be careful what he wishes for - given the train carrying Boris Johnson and Carl Bildt (former Swedish PM and UN special envoy) was targeted by a Russian drone attack ....

I’m wondering if the picture taken by the fireside was taken on the Island they stayed on in the summer. It could have been cold enough there and isn’t the ethos ‘back to nature’.

Just watched the latest release....my thoughts

  • the music is completely wrong for the vibe of the video
  • if they are so concerned with security it seems ridiculous to publish this..reckless even. It makes a mockery of their securidee concerns.
  • showing the backs of the kids might generate interest from weirdos who are determined to see them. It's better that we do not see them at all - there is no need for anyone to see these kids in this very public manner
  • I thought the deer looked very odd...I assume it's a private estate
  • I'm in Ireland and it's still quite warm here too...not yet muddy puddles and fire weather. I don't think I've even worn a coat in months.
  • I don't get the point of the video? What are they hoping to achieve with it? Publicity? But they want privacy?!

Ref the music - it’s relevant in the sense that she always has to announce how much in love they are. This time round it’s ‘you put the boom boom into my heart, etc.

WhatTheHellsGoingOn · 14/09/2026 03:14

What I want to know is - if the royal family is so damaging to all its members on an emotional and psychological level - which is what H and m were hammering home in all their interviews, books etc - then why on earth are they obsessed with being part of it - or at least SEEN to be part of it? They were adamant their children were going to be referred to as Prince and Princess - but these are titles associated with an institution they hate and deplore. Why would they want those labels for their children if it’s so damaging to everyone?

When Charles was crowned they were fuming that their children weren’t going to be part of the royal procession - but after all the psycho babble of how harmful and effed up the dynamic is for ppl, especially children - how on earth could they reconcile all that they’ve said and still push their kids forward and exclaim “THEM TOO!!!!!!!” ?!!!

They really are a bunch of hypocrites with zero self awareness.

WhatTheHellsGoingOn · 14/09/2026 03:22

Also want to point out the blatant double standards of cutting all contact with the father who did his share in raising her - providing her with the springboard of private education (funded by his lottery win) and tv contacts - not visiting him after multiple health scares and the fact he’s lost a leg due to latest one- he hasn’t met Harry or grandchildren - all bc he ill-advisedly did some tongue-in-cheek photos in the lead up to their wedding which obv caused some embarrassment AND YET they are dumbfounded as to why THE ROYAL FAMILY are keeping them at arms length and not welcoming them back into the fold after numerous breaches of confidence and the monetising of serious accusations of racism and mistreatment, sharing of deeply private and personal information and so on….it seriously beggars belief.

BemusedAmerican · 14/09/2026 05:03

So Meghan makes Harry get rid of his guns and is anti-hunting. But is OK with the kids fishing in Ian Wace's no doubt artificially stocked farm. And is also OK with Ian raising deer to be killed in his very own slaughter house.

BTW, I don't know anyone in the US who owns wellies, although if we keep getting flashfloods, it might be a good idea to buy some.

Choux · 14/09/2026 05:53

HAM: We want privacy!
Also…
Meghan: Here’s a video that will allow you to track our location.
Harry: We’re being stalked! We need full armed security!

The deer clip seems to be on Rowler Manor too as the road being two concrete paths with a grass verge in between matches what I can see of the estate roads on Google maps. Ian Wace has historically been very private. I am not sure he will enjoy the talk and speculation his hosting of the Sussexes will bring.

stillavid · 14/09/2026 06:00

Pretty obvious now which school the children are attending. Its almost like they want to be photographed on the school run ;)

Sounds like nonsense. Soros is a generic bogeyman and Tom Bower was basing his unsubstantiated allegations on an opposition politician, whose article he probably couldn't even read because it's in Spanish.

Is there an Ian Wace arrangement? An American tabloid claimed this, but there's no proof.

Even if Wace is supportive, he doesn't have to get anything from it. Proximity to second-rate royalty is enough for him.

It rings more and more hollow given how much time and energy they put into conveying their dislike of the UK and how great life in California is.

If their location is accurate then I wouldn't be at all surprised if, when we find out which school their children are going to, that it is a famous Oxfordshire prep school.

MrsLeonFarrell · 14/09/2026 06:47

They have obviously given up waiting for the tabloids to out their location and decided to do it themselves. Still don't think we will be seeing shots of them on the school run because the press have, apparently, higher standards with regard to breaching the privacy of children than the Sussexes do. I also don't believe this is going to bounce RAVEC into giving them security.

Talking to my - foreign-born, and only thinks about HAM when I bring them up in convo ( and even then, only if there's no footie on) about the current situation.

His observation is that people in the UK are pretty lukewarm about the RF in general - they're a fact of life, like the weather. But attack them! We rally. Again, in a lukewarm sort of way.

I doubt that a US PR firm gets how the UK population feels about our unelected HoS, and how complicated it is. A bit like we just don't get the pledging alliegance every morning thing.

Good analogy. And it doesn't appear that anyone has learnt anything in the 6 years since either.

It really is, Uncle Colm. It’s crazy, all these multi-millionaires seemingly desperate to help this family of multi millionaires - Tyler Perry, Elton John, Ian Wace. Make it make sense!

i mean- why don’t they say “But you’re not short of a bob or two yourselves!” The stunning cheek of this pair is phenomenal.

Lookatmelookatmedontevenlookatme · 14/09/2026 06:58

I opened Facebook today and was confronted by Meghan’s video, posted by Somerset Live FFS. Deleted the post and debated which of the options to choose for doing so, decided against “spam” in favour of “disturbing”.

I’m sure this has already been discussed but how come Meg managed to bring her dogs over? What happened to quarantine?

Changed in 2000, now they just have to meet Pet Travel conditions re microchipping and rabies jabs. You’re right though, there used to be a six month quarantine requirement.
