Enty Lawyer just had a blind saying that someone who works at a hotel told him Harry spends nights there without Meg. It's already starting.

Eww. Enty? The fake “celebrity lawyer” who actually is some weirdo working in shitlaw in wills and probate?

I think the difference with Harry though is that he doesn’t have the resources that Charles and Will as the King and heir have. Like William has tons of money he controls himself through the various duchies. If Kate were to get fed up she doesn’t have any real options. Her parents are broke, she’s not aristocratic so her place in those circles might be dicey, and I feel like the BRF is kinda stingy with the divorce settlements. In contrast, it’s unclear to me that Harry can make money without Meghan and he never had that much to begin with. She seems to be the brains of the operation. So if he cheats and she jumps ship that might be a bad situation for him. But none of these men have great role models.

Diana got a $26 million divorce settlement all those years ago and she still got to see her boys. Kate will be financially set in the event of any divorce.

All valid points. But I think the family takes Harry back in that case…on payroll etc.

Sure. Do you really think Charles and William want to ever risk disclosing asset and arguing over their division in court? They'd give her an enormous amount of money.

What would Harry have done for income if he had remain the BRF? Depended on Charles?

Working royals in good standing get a fairly modest salary, but tons of perks. When you’re living in one of the family’s properties and barely paying rent, getting free clothes and transportation when working, the salary can go a lot further than the average subject.

Wills is likely to cheat because his marriage to Kate is little more than an arrangement, IMHO.

The Hanburys were given a prominent position and later inclusion in the coronation at the insistence of Camilla. Camilla looks down on Kate because she wasn’t an aristocrat but likes Rose because she’s an affair side chick and aristocrat like herself. I think Kate puts up with a lot of garbage.

Well body language and facial expressions say this is nonsense. Camilla and Kate exchange looks that suggest they have a close relationship.

Body language and facial expressions are how many of us see the problems with Kate and William. They seem to really dislike each other. Maybe that’s about Rose, maybe not.

+1, there was a time when they appeared to like each other but it's been a while. Now they often appear irritated or annoyed with each other, especially Kate. She looked very unhappy at the coronation, despite obviously being aware that all eyes were on them.

Compare this to how she's looked at a bunch of solo events lately -- all smiles and thrilled to be there. When she's with William she looks pained and annoyed.

She can go to Charles and get anything she wants in exchange for putting on a happy face. Everyone knows that her going public and divorcing (especially a messy public divorce with a fight over assets and maintenance) is the end of the monarchy.

Yup! People want to believe that William and Kate have the fairy tale life but Kate absolutely worked hard to snag her Prince and will do what she needs to become Queen. I totally respect her for that! But it’s a job more than a romance.

+1, this was a quid pro quo arrangement from the start -- Kate set her sights on William and saw an opportunity because so many of the women in his set were disinterested in the job. She pursued him and molded herself into what she believed William, and the BRF, wanted in a future queen. And she was savvy and good at it (and also well funded by her family) and succeeded.

But it wasn't a love match. Kate didn't just accidentally fall in love with William at college. She was there to snag him. Also, he's pompous and dull and was only moderately handsome in his youth (and now not at all)-- were he not the heir to the throne, he would not have been of interest to her. She was social climbing and her family wanted to marry into the aristocracy. She aimed high and won, knowing the cost.

Kate is very controlled and usually excellent at not letting it show, but I was surprised by how angry and unhappy she looked at the coronation -- such a high profile event, they arrived late, looked unhappy in the carriage, and she seemed irate pretty much the entire time. She has looked happier at other more recent events but, notably, not while standing next to William.

I honestly think she cares more about how the rumors make her look than about the infidelity itself. Her image is here greatest asset and, along with the kids, her biggest leverage within the family.

This is spot on. I am not a fan of Kate but William seems to have inherited neither his mother’s charm or looks or his father’s intelligence. Team Kate!

I read in the past that when Kate was first engaged to Wills, she was pulled aside and told that men of Prince William’s station would have lots of opportunities to have affairs (from women throwing themselves at him) and that this was something she needed to accept.

I also read something about how Kate was indeed livid about the Rose Hanbury situation several years back and cut her out of their circle in Norfolk, but that basically William is really into something in the bedroom that Kate is not willing to do, which is why Rose is still around, and Kate puts up with it.

I mean, maybe. But you're going to need a more credible source than "I read something."

So I had never heard of Rose… but this is juicy speculation. According to Wikipedia, she was 6 months pregnant with twins when she married in 2009. And her engagement was announced 2 days before the wedding?

That sounds like hasty arrangements to me. Is it possible that William is the father of her twins?
