As Cherie says, Harry knows what's right or wrong when discussing issues related to the Queen and the royal family. It just shows a total lack of respect for a family member let alone the queen. If this is the public face, we can only imagine what has been said behind closed doors :laugh:

Absolutely.... However Harry is coming across as extremely weak and the pair of them are just behaving like spoiled brats because they really dont like it when they dont get their way. I dont think Harry is the sharpest tool in the box either and its starting to show.
So much disrespect at a time when Philip is in hospital.

The pompous little statement from the Duke and Duchess of Sussex’s Hollywood PR department says it all

To us, it looks as if their work over the past year has been securing lucrative deals with Netflix and Spotify.

That is indeed duty and service but it looks like it is mainly duty and service to the Duke and Duchess of Sussex.

If you do good works — which they do — they will always be overshadowed by the money-making deals that race smartly alongside them.

No one cares about the unseen, unglamorous works they undertake when they live such a high-profile lifestyle.

Harry and Meghan moved from a huge mansion in Vancouver Island to a house in the Hollywood Hills and then to a multimillion-dollar mansion in Mendocino County — all in the space of a year.

Their PRs should be sacked for putting out such a statement which looked like a jibe at the Queen’s life of unselfish service.

Unselfish service

The Queen’s wealth is inherited. How does not wanting to disclose the amount have anything to do with the unselfish service she has carried out for 68 years? Seems you are just finding something to nit -pick that was reported weeks ago to divert away from Harry and Meghan’s latest SELFISH actions.

So the queen getting involved in politics against protocol to protect her wealth is nitpicking and not selfish but two ex-royals leaving a position they didn't like and was adversely affecting their mental health is selfish.

Tell me, if someone is unhappy in a job, would you call them selfish for finding another job and leaving? Because that's essentially what Harry and Meg did, they left the family business to pursue their own path.

It's not unselfish service if you don't really have a choice, then you try to hide the results of that service from the people that are responsible for your wealth.

Jet, I honestly couldn't care less about royals, but you of all people accusing anyone of nit-picking to suit an agenda in these threads is beyond laughable.

jet 20-02-2021 01:17 PM

I would have a lot to say about this, but I'm not taking the bait to divert attention away from the disgraceful, selfish acts of Harry and Meghan and I hope nobody else who thinks like I do does the same.
That tactic was already tried with Prince Andrew.

Taking the bait? You made the accusation, I just turned the mirror around and that's what you didn't like. I didn't even bring the queen into the thread.

You could just say that you don't have a response, you don't need to insult people because you can't argue against what they are saying.

You haven't responded to my posts to you (437 and 510) which started when you quoted me.
Was this because you hadn't a response or did you just miss them? You have no obligation to answer them of course.

I love how kate and will just glide through all this self-promotion and lust for money and just get on with serving the nation as if nothing has happened.

If only meghan had used kate as a role model then things would have worked out much better for her and harry

:(

I did respond, the post got deleted though in a large sweep.

Essentially I said that idle gossip isn't really a news source as it's just hearsay with no facts, like pretty much everything that people use to justify hating this couple. It's all speculation and nothing solid.

She does, doesn't she? She's a very dignified and classy lady.

That is the answer I expected, it always is when people are too lazy to try to verify something they don't want to believe.
....and you call her family scum without any evidence (as you say) because you don't know what drove them to act as they did.

There is evidence of them being scummy, they literally sold articles about their daughter/sister for money to hurt her as her wedding approached. Such behaviour is disgusting, and then you've got the sister who is apparently writing books about Meghan to slate her as a way to profit of their relationship. Such things are scummy and I think you would say the same, were it not Meghan who was the target of such things.

There's more evidence of them being scum because of their actions than anything about Meghan because it's all wishful thinking and gossip. Her father and sister frequently ran to the press for profit. That is a fact.

Calling me lazy because I don't believe in things without proof is senseless. I'm not going to take strange claims at face value because I know better. I simply don't believe something just because it appeals to my view, I require proof to take idle gossip as anything more than idle gossip.

Finally, it doesn't matter what her family's motivations are, they still aimed to profit from their relation to her, they still lashed out to hurt her. A rational adult should know that they alone are responsible for their own actions. Meghan didn't force them to sell their stories, she didn't make them do anything, they chose to be toxic and that's on their own heads. It's completely warped to victim blame Meghan when it's her family that's clearly in the wrong for selling stories about her.

She was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis in 2008, and has been using a wheelchair since then. I admire her for working and making a living by writing.
