It just goes to show what utter failures the pair of them are, coming back to replicate a job you flounced from “I can’t believe I’m not getting paid for this” well you certainly aren’t now love! As I said a pair of buffoons!

That’s interesting. Could be the Haterz? Any recent reviews?

Many of the reviews I just read mention Meghan negatively. Many are also from outside of the US.

Other reviews are gushing too much.

Trust Pilot really isn’t widely used in US. Example: Dollar Tree is a national chain with over 15K stores across US, and only has 665 total reviews. TP has it labeled a furniture store.

More like several thousand! And given Meghan had no trouble retaining her American PR people and had no issue with jetting off to NY for a pap walk product placement "baby shower", I don't get the impression she was passively being told that she could only see the 'royal doctor' whoever they are!

I'm sure her Consultant at the Portland would be surprised.

Interesting that Harry thinks he’s fit to speak about mental health in the context of how he handled Meghan’s pleas for help.

Maybe that will that be his advice. Just get up and go the theatre.

Prince Carl of Sweden (currently 4th in line to the throne) studied graphic design in both Stockholm and the US, and has his own graphic design business not using any of his titles. He uses Carl Philip Bernadotte in a professional capacity, he also has a degree in agricultural management and he is also a military reserve officer.

Harry is a bit of a loser when it comes to any sort of achievement in his life, even his military career was terminated because he didn’t have the capacity to progress any further.

Calling someone who served 10 years in the British Army, including two tours of Afghanistan, a “loser with no achievements” says considerably more about your judgement than it does about Prince Harry. To dismiss a decade of military service, including deployment to an active war zone, as though it amounts to nothing is breathtakingly ignorant.

Harry chose to leave the Army after ten years. Further progression would have involved increasingly desk-based responsibilities, a direction he recognised wasn't suited to him. Knowing your strengths and choosing a different path isn't failure.

He subsequently went on to establish the Invictus Games, an international sporting event for wounded, injured and sick service personnel and veterans. Whatever your opinion of Harry, that is an achievement in its own right.

There's also a rather unpleasant layer of intellectual snobbery running through your comment. Not everyone is academically inclined, nor should they have to be. Some people excel academically, others are technically gifted, practically minded or thrive in entirely different environments. Why are we still perpetuating this ridiculous notion that university qualifications are the ultimate measure of intelligence or achievement?

I'm sure Prince Carl Philip's qualifications and career are perfectly respectable, but using his graphic design credentials to belittle someone else's decade of military service is a particularly bizarre comparison.

Perhaps you'd like to undertake two tours of Afghanistan yourself, serve your country for a decade, and then have someone sitting comfortably behind a keyboard dismiss you as a loser who has achieved nothing. I wonder how you'd feel about that?

You don't have to admire Harry to acknowledge his achievements. And frankly, an education is supposed to broaden your mind, not give you an excuse to look down on people whose achievements happen to be different from yours.

Yes, it was a significant achievement for Edward Lane Fox, who did all the work of setting up the IG and is still on the Board of Directors.

Harry just got to turn up and take all the glory. Not that different from other royals, it's true, but let's not pretend the IG were the result of Harry's hard work and initiative.

"Viewing a photo of the late Princess of Wales, Harry said, "I find myself looking at her and wondering, what is she thinking about what I am doing right now?"

I think we can safely say she'd be horrified Harry. At the way you're treating your father and brother, at how you behaved to HMTLQ and at your relentless whining.

Diana was a monarchist, she'd have supported The Crown and she'd have been bollocking you, mate.

It’s not normal that this is the ONLY view that we’ve seen.

There isnt one single picture, video of the children interacting, playing a board game, making a cake, playing tag, building a den. There is zero interaction.

Edited

I believe that is because the photos are so carefully staged to not show their faces. They tell us nothing about the children except that they have to spend periods being carefully photographed from the back.

And I believe the Royal Foundation played a large part in supporting it initially?

Someone so experienced, so capable, so resourceful... couldn't contact the private maternity hospital when his pregnant wife had suicide ideation?

Yes, it was given to Harry.
He's did none of the work.
He and his wife have just used it for self promotion.

Yes. Ignore everything that you've gone through and the help you've been given. Ignore the Heads Together that you helped set up. Ignore the work of your mother's friend and your confidante, a top psychologist.
Ignore your wife's Consultant led support at a top private hospital.
Just blame the RF.

elessar · Yesterday 12:27

Their joint “engagements” in Nottingham are such a big climb down after Meghan was a no show at the Invictus events in July because it was “unsafe” for her to be there.

Unless they’ve been granted full police protection, which I assume they haven’t, then it’s another case of Harry having a strop, realising nobody cares, and that his own stated principle is getting in the way of something he wants to do, and having to quietly backtrack.

TheOvertGardener · Yesterday 12:27

Absolutely galling for him to have told Meghan she couldn’t seek support because it would reflect badly on the Royal Family. It really makes me angry.

There was a strange review on Reddit over the weekend. The poster said the ordering and delivery was very fast but when asked about how the things actually tasted they kept saying that they had ordered everything except for the tea as gifts, and then wouldn't say what the tea was like. It wasn't a massively positive bit of publicity for the brand.

AlexandraCarrington · Yesterday 12:29

Other royals don't claim, or have it claimed on their behalf, that they founded the organisations they represent - except the King's Trust, which was entirely his initiative as PofW, and the initial funding was his money.

Sentebale, now, that was largely the initiative of Prince Seeiso and Prince Harry. I used to think it was one of his best achievements. Shame it all went so wrong.

Odd. Maybe they just hadn’t tried it yet.

I think some of the reviews on TP are also odd.

As usual it's everyone else's fault & problems but himself.. he was also involved in mental health campaigning with C&W for years he surely had a host of contacts he could have reached out to for advice

Of course! Plus, as we've said, Meghan was booked in at a top private maternity hospital!
He could have called her Consultant.

Now to play act some kind of mental health expert?

Even if Sentebale was Harry's 'initiative', he'll have had 'people' working out all the logistics for him. The past 7 years have shown he hasn't got a clue about that sort of thing.

They may well have full protection. Otherwise they have to pay for their motorcades on Thursday
