BBC article “
There was the long shadow of his mother's early death, the media spotlight on his youthful mistakes and the extraordinary interest that his relationships and then his marriage sparked. Unlike his older brother Prince William, Harry has never grown used to media, and still visibly bridles at the cameras and the questions. And he is obviously - visibly - bored by the ceremonial side of the job. In short, he has long wanted out...” |
You can’t be a spinster if you were already married once. |
She was probably told but actually living the life is very different. This is not about her. This is about his choice. He plays no role in the royal family now that Will has kids. He is not in the direct line of succession. He will be like the Queens sister who has to bow to his brother's every demand and no life of his own. It makes no sense for him to stay. All his money comes from his father. His father can still choose to fund his lifestyle or cut him off. He clearly gets much less than his brother. |
Stop messing up her role as victim. |
+1. Hopefully this will be the impetus for a change in how the Royal Family functions, to give people more options to find paths that suits them while still contributing to the common good. |
It's pretty obvi from the wedding that Meghan doesn't give two shlits about family. I'm not a Meghan hater at all but I think it's really strange that the only blood relative at her wedding was her mom. Her mother has three or four siblings... she's not close to ANYONE on her mom's side of the family. That is beyond bizarre. |
| Their secret maneuverings to monetize their royal status while ditching all responsibility is just trashy and gross. Hope they disappear quickly from the public eye. |
This is the feeling I get too. |
Yep. That new website is something else. With Australia burning, and Prince Andrew retiring, this is just so self-absorbed. And trashy. |
Maybe she wasn't allowed to invite any of them. Maybe her mom is not close to her siblings and didn't invite them. My MIL had 4 siblings. They are close to each other but treated my MIL horribly. I would not have invited them to our wedding, nor would they have come. They didn't even come to her funeral after demanding what the funeral should be. |
Catch up. The other 95% come from Charles. He’s got $30m on his own from Diana. She’s got like $3m |
I don’t think anyone would have a problem with them completely abdicating titles and funds. The issue is trying to keep a foot in both lives |
In addition Harry and William also received inheritances from the Queen Mother. |
Did you just call them trashy while lamenting a pedophile ‘retiring’??? |
Monetizing the Sussex brand? A la Kardashian? Not criminal, but trashy. |
