Surely they aren't failing so badly reputation wise (and possibly financially) that they need to be SEEN with those awful Royals to boost their popularity and commercial projects?

Or is our Queen so canny that she is being remarkably forgiving, therefore making sure they never say another bad word about her 70 year making of the institution she is head of and his future book isn't going to be full of more scathing lies, whining and cries of perpetual victimhood?
Will Harry and Meghan become good celebs/royal friendly and free us forever from their awfulness?

Intriguing stuff....

Or maybe, just maybe, the Queen meant what she said in one of the statements released that Harry and Meghan remain loved members of the family and she just wants them all with her :hmm:

Maybe, there is things that go on in that family that we are not privy to and some of the "sources" that leak things are not always telling the truth...shock horror.

Who knows? I am sure the Queen will love to have her whole family around her at the time and that is more important than any motive any of them may have for being there. Its her show after all

i think the press is responsible for creating a rift and perpetuating it. It sells. The queen has been around to long to harbour grudges, and lets face it Charles is no spring chicken either. Charles will have a bigger beef with Andrew than he would ever have with his son

Totally diagreee. Harry and Meghan created the rift and have perpetuated it throughout. For a start the press didn't force them to go on Oprah.

I very much doubt that Meghan is a much loved member of the family.

the queen is nearly 96. She will want a united family for the june event. We also know she has plans for Andrew to attend so its not just H & M

After all the years of service the queen has put in. To me its only right, that the family put a brave smile on things for 4 days

Meghan, in floods of tears, begged the Queen for forgiveness and said that she really wanted to be part of their lovely family again. Then she requested that Liz ask Kate to Zoom- call her to advise her on what to wear to look presentable on the balcony.

I think the penny has dropped that it’s far easier to do the minimum of Royal engagements with pre arranged press than it is to produce the amount of content Spotify require or have to put up with a camera trailing you everywhere recording your every move, cap in hand to Liz they have gone and they seem to want Charles to reinstate them as part time royals once Liz passes

Also where has the narrative come from that they don't want cameras following them for their Netflix shows? I miss when they were desperate attention seekers

According to Lady Colin Campbell re H&M’s visit to the Queen- nothing of substance was discussed, it wasn’t an ‘olive branch’ meeting, polite conversation was made. The meeting with Charles (and Camilla halfway through) was very brief and distinctly chilly.

I wonder....LC does have good contacts, she often turns out to be correct, and her video is available on youtube if anyone wants to hear more (I haven’t listened myself yet, I just heard the gist of her remarks.)

It does seem to me that H&M are realizing they need to be back in favour with the Royals for their brand to succeed, because they need to be seen to have a proper, ongoing connection to them. It is really all they have going for them, success - wise. On their own, they haven't done anything of note at all and have needed a lot of outside help brought in to produce what little has been forthcoming from them for Netflix and Spotify.

Maybe people need to stop posting their opinions as facts
