You want them to live in a house with neighbors snd security sitting on the front porch.

We don't - but considering their claims that they want Archie to have a normal childhood, it's very difficult to look at their living arrangements and say to yourself - yeah, that's what normal looks like.

You are a bald faced liar!

OPRAH got $7 million for the interview, the Sussexes got NOTHING. They haven’t done any paid public appearances since the ONE appearance in Florida before the pandemic.

You ugly, ugly women are so full of hate. I pity your husbands and children, truly.

Let's be real, the pay out comes in this business relationship this interview helped foster. Harry is already in a lucrative deal with the 'mental health' series with Oprah coming out.

+1,000

I mean, really people! DUH!

I don't think most Americans get British humour, particularly that of older generations where racist stereotypes were seen as harmless good fun even if said without malice.

I think this is exactly the context, which doesn't make it ok. I got the impression that that comment, and other's reactions to it, was a big part of the failure to acknowledge racism playing a role in what was going on. And it definitely contributed to Harry's decision to leave.

I'm sure I'm not adding anything new, but I definitely got the impression that there were a lot of things proposed that supposedly had a completely legitimate purpose. Not giving Archie title, for instance.

Overly dramatic self-centered millennials. Exhausting.

I know it's silly but I've always been a big fan of hers. She seemed like a nice, normal person who just happened to be so pretty that she caught the eye of a prince. She also didn't seem that into the job, like she married him because she loves him not because she wants to be queen that badly.

This news that she didn't stand up for Meghan, that she didn't issue a correction of what really happened with Meghan at the dress fitting, that she is married to a racist who questions the skin color of his nephew, etc.

It's really disappointing. I feel like I can't be a fan anymore.

You can’t have been that much of a fan if you’re going to just drop your support based on hearing one side of a story on a specific incident. According to Meghan, there was a disagreement over the flower girl dress which resulted in Meghan crying and Catherine apologizing and sending flowers. Yes, maybe Catherine was in the wrong but it could also have been the case that Meghan was being a bridezilla and Catherine just decided to be the bigger person and apologize just to smooth things over - or even more likely somewhere between the two extremes.

NP. Not that, disappointed in not correcting the "Meghan made Kate cry" story that unleashed a racist mob against her because how dare she attack their perfect white princess.

Kate looked the other way and did nothing when she had a chance to help. I'll never believe that William didn't tell her Meghan was struggling. That says a lot about her character.

Kate turned out to have been a fine judge of character, especially after listening to Meghan’s whining yesterday.

I also think that the baby conversation could have very easily been Charles or whoever just idly wondering - "well I wonder who the baby will look like. Do you think he will be light like Harry or dark like Meghan?"

And it's not like Meghan is very dark, either.

I still don't get what the "concern" over Archie's color would have been like. I mean he'd come out however he'd come out, nothing to be done about it.

Yeah but translate this to the American world for a minute. You're in a wealthy Catholic family and you marry a Jewish woman. The family wonders if your child will be raised Catholic and to pre-empt the answer cuts you out of the will and refuses to let your child use their last name. That's the analogy here. Still wealthy or not, you wouldn't have a problem with that?

Kate endured a lot and has her own problems, was pregnant then just postpartum when MM was brought in. Harry's responsibility, not hers. I also don't blame her for not being quick to trust an American actress with all kinds of red flags and attention-seeking behavior.

And Kate’s judgement proved right.

+2 And zero evidence Kate was awful to her. Who knows what the bridezilla encounter was about. All insinuations, no receipts.

So Meghan’s best friend is married to the son of the ex-Canadian Prime Minister and she admits she was already friends with Eugenie and then wants us to believe she had no knowledge of Harry and his family? And then, despite the fact the most certainly would understand the rules of succession by now, is claiming that Archie wasn’t given a title that he was never going to receive based on the rules of succession anyhow? Two clear lies and she wants us to believe everything else she says with no clear references or receipts? This is what makes me so skeptical of her and what makes her so hard to believe about anything else.

Humor, especially around color, is gone, banned from American society. There is no humor anymore.

Pro tip. It was never funny to some of us. We just were guilted/dismissed/threatened to keep our mouths shut

And that’s pretty much all of us. The whole problem isn’t about race, but it is it in every fiber of what is going on with most of us all the time. Of course it permeates this.

Megan can still be a Narcissist however.

That's not the comparison at all.

Archie would never have been prince. Harry knows this. They are just using this as a bone to throw to uneducated American viewership.

If you read the press and commentary from the "other side", they say this:

Kate didn't trust Meghan from the beginning. She thought it was all too fast and Meghan seemed too thirsty. And similar to the treatment that she herself received in her day, she took the position of "wait and see if this person earns my trust". She wasn't going to be fast friends with anyone unless she has observed Meghan over a period of time and judged her to be deserving of her trust.

It is not for nothing that you never read any comments from "friends of Kate" - because she vets her friends very carefully.

Plus, Kate sees her role as supportive of William above all else.

Meghan confused that with discrimination and racism.

And I'll say that Kate's judgment turned out to be not completely off base.

She seems like a very clinical person overall. (Kate)

She is a private person. She is reserved. She has a very warm, tight-knit family and photos of her genuine big smile and laugh abound.

I get it. I can't do social media. I won't even let friends post my photo. Keeping your life private and being wary and conservative when meeting new people is not clinical, it's pretty smart.

But, yes, she is definitely "Keep Calm and Carry On". The no-nonsense British "Stiff Upper lip" and anything can be cured with 'exercise and outdoors'.

Frankly, with all of the everyone providing TMI and reality TV, I find it quite refreshing.

You and Kate are positively twinsies! Not that anyone would know because you are both so reserved, and seek to stay out of the spotlight by keeping off social media.

Americans don’t understand the rules of succession. Wait until this airs in the UK, and this nonsense about Archie not being a Prince because he's black comes out. Do your research. I guess King Henry V should have predicted this when he laid out the rules of succession 100 years ago? Eduardo kids don’t even have titles!!! The entitlement. Unbelievable.
