Why should Harry & Meghan do the same ,if anything it's time for traditions to change as it's boring .

Examples of such acts include providing a meal to a woman in need, calling a friend to check in, and helping a parent or neighbour to register for and get their Covid-19 vaccine.

Other examples of how people can help are listed on the website, in sections entitled family care, wellness, food and empowerment.

As I have said before...if these reports are true, it must be very difficult for these people to sit back and watch what they are doing...how Harry and particularly Meghan are playing the Victim card. Perhaps if Harry and Meghan had just kept quiet and got on with their lives...none of this would have re-surfaced. To do it now rather than after the interview was better timing.
Its been said that this complaint of Bullying was swept under the carpet at the time in order to protect Meghan....so all these claims she is making about not being protected and being silenced...it has no doubt prompted people to fight back.

All Manchester towns have terraced housing and all the women in Stetford are pretty robotic and perfectly turned out so GH wasn't far wrong

I agree....the sad thing is though if these allegations are correct, it should not have taken an Oprah interview and worries of bad press for the Royals for them to be properly investigated. No one should be deemed needing protection when other people's well being is at stake. These women are not the one's fighting back, its the Palace that have approached them NOW to pursue them when they disregarded the concerns at the time.

Can see this happening. However, if this IS what happened, the palace comes out of this looking horrendous, yet again. Meghan may be a diva (or may not be) but the ones who should have taken such complaints seriously and investigated at the time, instead ignored it all, only to use it as a trump card later on in life. Looks horrendous for 'the royals' really. And these leaks and such, I suspect make the royals look MUCH worse than anything that may possibly be said in the interview tbh.

Well Cherie...she is a very compassionate person. Shes so compassionate she is going to tell the world how wonderful her husbands family are...in fact she might even mention a couple of women in particular ahead of International Womens Day.
Shes so compassionate that she feels it will lift Phillips spirits as the 99 year old spends his third week in hospital with heart issues.
Shes so compassionate that in doing this interview people will realise the loss of life, livelihoods and love ones in a Pandemic just doesnt compare.
After all...she didnt have to do this. So compassionate...

Good point but they already look worse by protecting a peadophile but Meghan is somehow worse says it all really

Yes..it should have been dealt with at the time. However if it was 'swept under the carpet' to protect Meghan then it kind of goes against her accusations of not being protected. Sometimes when you try and help...it backfires.

Yup they ignored it and brushed it under the carpet while Harry and Meghan were Royals, and are wheeling it out now that they're "out" and in the bad books.

Says it all really. They protect their own no matter what, but get on their bad side and the gloves come off. Pathetic, really.

If Harry and Meghan mistreated their staff it should have been investigated and addressed at the time. If those staff members didn't feel like they could complain about a family member and have it taken seriously (or perhaps even feared repercussions if they complained) - that says a lot about the general culture of working for the Royals doesn't it.
