Wait what. H&M own entire countries now? Fascinating. |
Not to mention that Harry and Meghan moved there in late 2019, so that doesn’t excuse the failure to visit earlier in the year. |
His mom INVITED photographers just as often as she didn't. |
Why do the British royals have to visit Australia or Canada? Those countries have functioning governments and societies. Isn’t it just a waste of taxpayer money? All people see are pictures of women in pretty dresses. |
One l. Philip. Not Phillip. I thought it was a mistake, but you did it throughout your post. 😁 |

Meghan & Harry are so cash grabbing. I wonder who they will do a tell-all on next for a few dollars. |
The existence of the royals in this day and age is a waste of money. |

The British monarch is head of 15 or 16 Commonwealth realms (including the United Kingdom countries). Each of those countries or realms supports the royal family in some way - financially. There's a reason Elizabeth's on Canadian money, their government sends her $50 million a year to support her family's lifestyle. So yes -- they have to visit. On average they send a senior royal/royal couple to the major nations every year - Australia, Canada, New Zealand get their own visits and the Caribbean nations get a visit as a collective. https://www.macleans.ca/news/canada/queen-costs-us-more-than-the-brits-pay/ https://www.businessinsider.com/canadas-cost-to-support-the-royal-family-in-2015-2016-9 |
I would really love to watch a Canadian Prime Minister in debates explain how they justify sending a foreign monarch $50 million a year. Adjusted from Canadian dollars that's about $28 million pounds a year. The British spend $90 million pounds a year on the royal family by themselves.
Like WTF do the Canadians get out of it? The royals don't even live there. |
Over the weekend, Archewell Foundation donated a large sum to the Dallas non-profit, Genesis Women's Shelter, which provides shelter to women fleeing domestic violence. Their housing units were significantly damaged by last week's polar vortex.

Thanks for fixing that link for me! While I wish the Sussexes would be a bit more modest in their self-publicity, I really do think that that they want to do good with their foundation. |
Let them use the publicity in any way they want to make money instead of being a drain on society. They're not taxpayer-funded, they're not taking money from the royal family, let them hustle. It's not like the actual royal family, with the rampant cheating and trash behavior, has any class like they pretend to. |
