I don't think it's particularly fair to suggest that people who don't shape their lives around living close to their elderly grandparents "aren't concerned about them". That judgement would apply to many, many people... not just Royals.

How many decent people would miss the opportunity to support their much loved Nan? Not too many imo, its not like he was busy working either

BOTS didn't say "he wouldn't have been on the other side of the world instead of at the ceremony", he said "he wouldn't BE on the other side of the world" implying that he would be (permanently) located closer-by "if he was concerned" (in in turn, that anyone who is concerned about elderly relatives would endeavor to live close to them).

Maybe that's not what he meant but again highlights the need to be clearer .

i dont think i needed to be clearer. If Harry was so concerned by his pervy uncle being close to the queen, he could have taken positive action. He has the wealth and the time to do it. Other people living apart from elderly relatives don't tend to be in such a privileged position, so it's hardly comparable

Harry has nothing to offer the queen his family in this country or this country.

He is a self centred cry baby who is full of sh1t

if people can't see that the media are trying to create a big split they must be blind. I really have no time for the pair of them, but this stuff is blatant

I think even moreso with this stuff above... it's like they've seen glimmers of reconciliation so they're doubling down on the front pages and headlines to stir the pot.

The rift sells papers, they've been leeching off this drama for years now, of course they don't want it to calm down. No one wants front page pics of them all out having a happy picnic together. 'tis just like when they started constantly stirring up BB drama because the "fighty" episodes got more viewers and publicity than everyone having a laugh. Same mindset really.

Interviewer: “Do you miss your father and your brother”?
Harry (diverting)…..umm….. “I just want to focus on these guys right now” (Invictus participants).

Goes on to say how he misses his little ones at home.

Yes, great glimmer of reconciliation quashed by…..not the press….but Harry himself. He could simply have said "Of course" and moved it along. But no.

The media aren’t making a split up that doesn’t exist.
Harry is fully aware that the media will run with everything he says and make 4 course meals out of it.
Yet he chooses to reveal info about a ‘private’ meeting with the Queen. He gives an interview that reveals the estrangement with his father and brother is still ongoing and talks about his private life. Getting a few palace directed digs in while he was at it.

He could have stuck to speaking about what he was there for - The Invictus Games. He could have the privacy he insisted he wants. All that entails is keeping his mouth shut.
Like his family do with their endeavours.

He ‘hates’ the press and he knows the score - so why?

Asked whether he felt his ‘mum’s presence’, Harry said: ‘It’s constant. It has been over the past two years, more so than ever before.

‘It’s almost as though she’s done her bit with my brother and now she’s very much helping me. She’s got him set up, and now she’s helping me set up. That’s what it feels like. He’s got his kids, I’ve got my kids.

‘The circumstances are obviously different. I feel her presence in almost everything I do, but definitely in the last two years than before without question. She’s watching over us.

DM

doesn't he know women can multitask and can look after more than one child at a time

Vilifying someone for their romanticised spooky feelings about their dead mum is a bit much surely Cherie? She's not actually literally doing anything for either of them and hasn't since the day she died, because she is dead, but if her memory and a bit of fiction can make someone feel better about their dead parent... maybe that's OK?

Of course it’s okay, but saying Mums finished with me bro now and is looking after me is a but daft, not to mention insulting to Wills...imagine if your sister claimed your Mum was only helping her now You would be like okay".....

Agreed, If this is how he chooses to look at things after losing his mum at such a young age then that's lovely.
