I’ve just had something flash up as breaking news that H and MM stormed out of a bar when they were told they’d have to wait for a table. Anyone else seen this or is it fake news?

ETA Ignore the above, it’s an old item about a Montecito bar.

And here we go again!! , they are short sighted idiots……first let’s attack Charles the heir , despite the fact the queen was old unwell and wouldn’t live forever……now let’s attack William the heir , despite the fact the king is old and unwell and won’t live forever……
dickheads!

Even if William and Catherine had a discussion and she suggested Alexander or John and William suggested George or Albert and in the end they chose George, that's not "vetoing", that's just choosing one name.

But Alexander is one of George's names. George Alexander Louis.

“It is lucky the teleprompter didn’t fail his namesake Henry V when he led his men into battle at Agincourt.”

Forget your lines at the Globe and you'd probably have rotten veg or worse thrown at you.

It’s in the Daily Express so it must be true.

I wonder what they do day to day. Take the kids to school or maybe the nanny does. Then what? Waft about picking fruit and veg? Planning ways to upset Prince William? Taking pics of England and posting them on insta?
They both need proper jobs.

Would you employ either of them?

William has a tight circle, and I’d guess once you’re out, you’re out. I can’t imagine anyone risking that for Harry, unless it’s someone who has cleared it with William eg some childhood friends may do some diplomacy missions

It's not just sucking up to William though, is it? It's just basic, common decency.
Too "common" for the likes of Prince Harry and Earl Spencer, it would seem.

And all this from Scobie, who wrote a book called Endgame because he thought the contents would bring down the monarchy. Who had such well researched and reliable information sources that he claimed the late Queen's coffin was returning to England by train.

One of the never ending fascinations I have with royal commentators is because of the way being constantly wrong doesn't seem to stop people from booking them for yet another warmed over slice of total guesswork.

I’m sorry, I realise my post won’t be received kindly (I’m a foreigner after all…although I live in 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 and my husband is British), but I do feel this thread is rather spiteful and unkind.

If you don’t like Meghan (for whatever reason, I don’t quite understand why she gets that much hate), can’t you at least find it within yourself to be a bit more kind towards Harry?

GunnelVallquist · Yesterday 14:39

Oh, and I didn’t go looking for this thread.

I saw it in ‘active’.

My2cents1975 · Yesterday 14:41

A rival court started by the world's most famous squatters who are leaching off the nearest billionaire for housing?

IMHO, that plan will go just about as well as HaM's foray into the entertainment industry to become billionaires...

Just to clarify; I think the monarchy is an outdated institution, but I fail to see how Harry is more of a persona non grata than Andrew.

What I don't understand is, if the monarchy is brought down 🙄 or reputation destroyed, it will drastically impact HAM and hamlets. The Wales would be absolutely fine. They would no doubt survive outside the monarchy. HAM and brood simply wouldn't

It’s ridiculous isn’t it!
trying the same approach time and time again, despite failure! 🤷‍♀️

I’m kind to people who deserve kindness.

I also laugh my socks off at dipsticks.

This is what the Sussexes don't understand.
The Wales' completely understand their role. They know it's not about them. They would survive and thrive outside the royal fold.
Harry and Meghan would be nothing, because all that matters to them is the titles and status.

There is an Andrew thread and others to discuss “the outdated “ monarchy.

Then you have utterly misinterpreted the nature of this thread.
Not one person has claimed that.

GunnelVallquist · Yesterday 14:47

jeffgoldblum · Yesterday 14:42

No.

What did he do that deserves that much vitriol?

Especially when you think what he went through as a child.

I just don’t get the hate.

I’m sorry, as I said, I’m not British, so maybe I don’t understand.

But especially considering he served in the Military (and you could argue he’s the only one deserving of his medals).

Also, has anyone on any thread said that Harry is worse than Andrew?
Ever?.

Many think Harry is worse than Meghan.

they must both be a nightmare to live with, so I hope they don’t split up as that would end up making two other people miserable.

Ok, I apologise.

Like I said, I didn’t seek out this thread, I saw it in ‘active’.
