    But whatever about Markle, the idea being peddled by the tabloids that she caused a rift between Harry and William and 'came between them' appears to be total nonsense / lies from them. By the sounds of things, he was never particularly close to William and saw him as a rival in many ways. Their so called close relationship pre-Meghan was a media invention.

    There may have been sibling rivalry, but the brothers always struck me as very close. Mates.

    What nasty things did Meghan do to her family?

    …In fairness I’ve taken an interest in RF stories through the years and Camilas transformation was certainly orchestrated but it was no big secret - it was obvious what was happening- people spoke openly about it, the media referred to it all the TV royal correspondents commented on it as it progressed- it was a work in progress for years and it was obvious that Charles wanted to head to the altar with her - the way he spoke about it was as if this was a big disclosure for the first time -it wasn’t. We all knew Camila was being carefully promoted and media managed.

    Her father gave her an education, paid her college fees, paid for her first wedding. Yet she didn't even bother to introduce him to her fiancee, or worse - husband. And she stoned him.

    And please don't make me discuss her ingenuine, ready to publish, leaked by her friends to Page 6 letters to him.

    The chaps an asshole though. Why should/would Harry want to meet him? Infairness, if she physically stoned him that's probably a slight bit excessive.

    The very nasty, in bed with the devil thing her husband is claiming happened to them via his Dad and Brothers press offices i.e. having staff engage the press in order to plant stories. She had her comms director meet a member of the media (Omid Scobie) who was writing a biography about them. The extensive notes provided were briefings about her relationship with her father and half-sister. It was them getting information out there but covering up any involvement. Her father and half-sister are regular people. To be briefed against was unnecessary. The difference here is that all of the above is verifiable as it came out in Court whereas Harry hasn’t given any specifics about what stories or information got planted about them. Perhaps some projection is going on there.

    But she stayed in contact with him right up to the wedding. Indeed he was invited. Why didn't he meet her dad at all?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,073 ✭✭✭JoChervil


    She is even bigger asshole in my eyes...



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,915 ✭✭✭✭Strazdas


    I'm not so sure. Apparently the story that Harry was best man at William's wedding was deliberately concocted by the media and he didn't even speak at the wedding reception. I got the distinct impression from last night's interview he was never particularly close to William (but got on much better with his father in fact).

    They've been together 6. Why wouldn't they be together 11. Blame Meghan for everything 🤣

    Given the **** her "regular" father and sister were pulling they can hardly complian about that. You can't whore yourself to the media and the clinical you're just a "regular person" with any credibility.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,628 ✭✭✭Augme


    Because he was an asshole. Wedding are complicated things. Plenty of family members who the bride or groom think are assholes get invited to weddings. It's pretty much part and parcel of nearly every wedding.

    It’s she that joined the RF- she and harry didn’t have to do the whole public working royal thing -they did it- it wasn’t for them - fine- but FFS stop trying to take on city hall and try and change an institution far bigger than you that has no interest in changing, or certainly not at the whim of Meaghan-just do something else instead and leave the RF to their golden cage.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,780 ✭✭✭Xander10


    He signed a 4 book deal.

    I guess this reconciliation he craves won't be happening in the meantime.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 6,391 ✭✭✭Be right back


    If he was an asshole, then why stay in contact with him?

    I think he’s projecting and parroting an awful lot that he’s learned in his therapy sessions- he’s on a therapy evangelical mission to “convert” his family and to see the “light” that he has- according to him, the RF are “doing it wrong” - he wants to right that.

    #harrysaves

    Just had a horrible thought- the way they’re carrying on, it’s inevitable that Meaghan will write her book, again to “set the record straight” This has only begun !!!!



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,628 ✭✭✭Augme



    I know. There only contact has been via phone. I don't see how that is being "nasty" though. As I said, maybe Meghan deep down knew what an asshole he was capable of becoming so wanted to protect him.


    When you look at the actions of both parties I really have no idea how any rational thinking person would say Meghan has been the nasty one while Thomas is the poor innocent one.

    Oops:-

    Yesterday he said that Camilla was dangerous and a villain. He seems to have changed his tune today.

    it was the most revealing part of the entire interview. Meghan quite clearly inferred that people were racist within the family in that Oprah interview. it's on tape. you cannot infer anything else from what they were saying. every media outlet in the world - tabloid, paparazzi or broadsheet - came to the same conclusion. and he knows what his wife said and clearly inferred. what else are you supposed to conclude from the accusation that there was 'concern over Archie's skin colour'?

    You have to ask why there was ''concern over Archie's skin colour''? My interpretation is that the RF are terrified of what the tabloids/paparazzi would do to the child and RF was black. And there is evidence that it would certainly bring out the worst of the press and a section of the British population (some jounralist from the BBC tweeted a photo of Harry & Meghan bringing a chimp out of the maternity hospital (the journalist got the sack). Now if a journalist from the BBC can stoop that low, you can bet your bottom dollar that the DM, express etc. will be well able to stoop lower.

    With that kind of carryon is there any wonder that the RF might express concern over the child's skin colour.

    King Harold of Norway (whose daughter is engaged to a black man) came out and defended his future son in law against the racist slurs he was getting and announced it was unacceptable. King Charles is afraid to do that for his daughter-in-law and grandson because he doesn't want to antagonise the press and their ability to generate money from disparaging his family.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,338 ✭✭✭✭jm08


    Why they left was that the RF would not defend Meghan against the constant attacks and slurs on her character and they would not allow them to defend themselves. An example is Clarkson's comments about how much he hated her and would like to drag her around the towns and villages of the UK for people to throw excrement at.

    Do you see anything wrong with that and if someone said that about your mother, sister, wife, what would you do?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,980 ✭✭✭Deeec


    There is no proof whatsoever that the RF had any concern ( as you put it) over Archies skin colour. We only have Megs word on that - lets face it she may be unreliable as she has lied on other issues. If the RF had a problem with Megs skin colour the wedding would not have been allowed happen. The RF gave the marriage their blessing and welcomed Meg into their family.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 59,141 ✭✭✭✭walshb


    The skin color was deliberately pushed, folks. Wake up.

    Someone made an innocent comment and they used it to create racist angle. It’s 2023 for chrissske.

    The RF and its workings and tentacles are full of all colors and creeds, and interact on friendly terms with all colors.

    Megan is slightly tanned and Harry is pasty white. What in jaysus would anyone give a flying fook that their offspring could be what, slightly above white?

    I knew the second I read about this color story that it reeked of two people desperately wanting to create a nasty angle to something that (if it even happened) was completely innocent.

    Some of the searching here to try bolster up Harry’s stories is beyond absurd.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,174 ✭✭✭Ms2011


    Saw an article last week which said that apparently Charles and Camilla were supposedly heading towards divorce in 2018 until she threatened to blab about royal secrets.

    Well, they need invitation to coronation. They need material for further books, so it's better not to rattle just that cage...
