Prince Harry and Meghan

“Queen furious” 😁

Various American, and I mist stress these are not UK, gossip sites I read have been saying for over a year that she has been leaking stories to US magazines/websites and this seems to have upset the UK hacks who think they should be getting all of the exclusives. UK hacks have essentially doubled down on supporting Kate as she is the one who will still be around*

Clearly the Queen doesn't read these same sites as this move was predicted by them months ago.

Well played the Prince Henry though for realising, about 30 years before Uncle Andrew did in his cycle, that once the actual heir starts having further heirs then those further down the chain become a complete irrelevance. Maybe he can go and make something of his life outside of the Royal bubble and not become a tedious embarrassment like his Uncle Andrew.

* - well maybe

Yes Kate absolutely got treated the same, her and her family, the families company and being 'middle class' were picked apart for years plus the infamous topless photos. As I said Meghan and Harry have had a lot of support, and that's been visible not just what's reported in the press.

If they had just worked with the palace and not against it then a balance could have been struck and none of this would have happened. But they seem intent on going against everything without compromise. They have come across as a bit righteous and as often happens, they dont like when people question them

I think a lot of people initially felt sorry for Meghan and Harry. But there are two sides to every story and elements of what her family, ex husbands and former friends have suggested potentially are starting to be seen. Like I said, if you've had controlling people in your lives (either directly or indirectly) you can spot patterns. Maybe she is, maybe she isnt, but there are certainly some similarities.

Not telling the queen shows an unforgivable lack of respect. Even if you forget shes 'The Queen', she is his grandmother and I would never dream of treating mine in a similar way. And I dont know any who would.

Also they want to hand pick the reporters they work with...hmmm..that sounds familiar.

Can’t stand the man personally, but it is the answer (in part) to the question. Look at how many likes the tweet has - that is suggestive of a public opinion.

I’ve nothing against Meghan personally, though I do think they’ve both made things difficult for themselves unnecessarily. This is just my view but it seems that Harry has this sort of blind devotion and is losing himself in his wife and marriage... at the expensive of his relationship with his brother, father and now grandmother.

Attempting to take a modern approach and find a position that works within the firm is admirable, but it has to be approved. You can’t respect the traditions of the institution one minute (such as asking the Queen for permission to marry) and then blindside her the next.

Makes little sense to me. Breaking away to focus on running (not just endorsing) your own charitable endeavours is one thing, taking a step backwards is a total other. They could have been together for years without getting married if she wanted to continue being an actress.

I think the pair of them come off as hugely entitled and selfish. They could very easily wait until the Queen has gone to pull this one and in the meantime quietly “work to becoming self supporting” so that when they do bugger off to America they’ve got the financial means to cut ties.
What theyre doing instead will be incredibly hurtful to the Queen who more than any of them understands what Royal duty means. They’re also cutting ties without apparently having the financial means to do so. So they swan off and do what they want, and we carry on paying for it. As someone said on the radiothis morning, you don’t leave the job and keep the company car.
