William + wife will have to do double the engagements he was before not only because Harry left but also because 3/4ths of the ‘Magnificent Seven’ are retirees and the U.K. is in freefall thanks to Brexit.

None of the royals have visited Australia or Canada in over two years as well. Too bad they pushed out the hardest working young royals.

Pandemic ?


DP. Yes, there were no royal visits in 2020. Rightly so. And in 2019 H&M moved to Canada, rendering the country off limits to the other royals.

As for Australia and other countries? As an American Anglophile, I don't really know or care.


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.

Especially when he can look at his uncles and see his fate there, relegated to obscurity after being 3rd and 2nd in line for the throne
Edward seems OK with his low-key life, but not Andrew...


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.

Team Meghan.

I have disdain for old archaic institutions that do absolutely nothing but provide weird antiquated symbolism. F the whole "royal" grifter charade.


Do nothing? You obviously don't know your English history. I would be team Queen just based on her World War II heroics. And if the question was team Harry or the Queen it would always be THE QUEEN!


I love my grandmother and think she was a total bad a and lived a pretty amazing life. Doesn’t mean she wasn’t also judge mental and mean, particularly to family members she disapproved of for reasons both rational and irrational.

Personally to me this has shown me that for the Queen love is conditional. She’s an amazing queen but has long seemed like a sub par mother and grandmother. People can be more than one thing at the same time

+1

She destroys/tries to destroy everyone who disagrees with her. Her sister. Prince Charles (her fault he married Diana), and now she tried it with Harry/Meghan. Also the kid she was closest to/most involved in rearing was Andrew...and he’s the worst one of the bunch!


QEII was miserable in her marriage and accepted the very least from Philipp. As a result, she believed that no one else deserved or was entitled to a happy marriage. Misery has no sympathy and enjoys company.


Victoria was the same way with her children. Having favorites, not having a good relationship with her heir, and even trying to prevent her last daughter from marrying in order to keep her around as her personal attendant.

But there is also the fact that she really seemed to fall in love with Phillip and was a fierce advocate to marry him. Victoria had the same sort of beginning with Albert. But he didn't live long enough to cheat on her for decades, so I don't know.


Elizabeth fell in love with Philipp, but Philipp did not fall in love with her. He was poor, broke, a nazi outcast who happened to have a powerful uncle/godfather named Montbatten. Philipp did not have a lot of options. Montbatten encouraged Philipp to woo Elizabeth the heir to the throne. It was easy to influence a naive 13-year old when you are a tall, handsome nineteen-year old. It was the best payoff in Philipp's life. He got the future queen and all the toys and mistresses life allowed him.


One P. Phillip. Not Phillipp. I first thought it was a mistake but you did it throughout your post.

Personally, I think you are too hard on Phillip. Unless you are the couple nobody really knows what goes on between them.


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.

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.
