+1. It's kind of fascinating to watch two privileged grown adults whine about how they aren't more privileged and prevaricate.

There are first world problems and then there are 0.001% World problems, like being wounded about not getting a wedding at Westminster Abbey or your SIL not sharing her lip gloss with sufficient enthusiasm.

They are scraping the barrel of grievances, we’re at lipgloss level now.

Agree. He’s so high on his own supply of victimhood that he doesn’t realize he’s degraded himself and the family. He doesn’t grasp he ceded the high ground.

And no it’s not an American thing to share lip gloss, the only people I share with are my kids and I’m sure I grimace when I do.

LOL! That was a weird thing to include....I don't know a single 40 year old woman who would ask to borrow lip gloss from another woman.

A lot of the little stories that they shared in the Netflix doc and in the book make me think Meghan does this stuff on purpose. "I hug!" "I wear ripped jeans!" "I talk to my girlfriends like this!"......just feels like she purposely tried to push the envelope to create some narrative of stuffy Brit vs. cool American.

I wonder if the palace is breathing a sigh of relief. They are going to come out winners in all this now that people are seeing what they were dealing with. They don't need to even say anything. The books speaks volumes about Harry, and not in the way he probably hoped.

The lipgloss thing is gross. Who does that? (I wouldn't do it with my kids.)

+1 I'm shocked at how trashy and petty the details are.

Same. I’d guess the palace PR folks are thinking “just keep talking” at this point. Because the more they talk, the worse they come off.

Not going to bother reading it. I am sure the "juiciest" bits will be reported in the media anyway. I think he has not been the spare for about nine years now, though I guess he is still angry about that.

Do their editors and PR people hate them or something?

With so much scrutiny and hype on the book, I'm surprised it got leaked. If all of the juicy tidbits are now being written by every gossip publication, will there still be interested readers? Maybe the accidental Spanish book sale was just some really bad luck....or bad PR. And the inclusion of so many unflattering stories and comments makes me think this was edited by someone who hates them. That or they edited it themselves or had a friend/lackey give them terrible advice.

Someone please explain this to me. As far as I am concern, they are popular because of his family. Why are they keep biting the hand that feeds them? Do they really think they can rebuild their damaged relationship but keep attacking them?

+1 Having worked in middle schools for many years, the complaints and stories about lip gloss and circumcision and falling on a dog bowl sound very familiar to those of that age group.

He sounds like a classic case of arrested development. His mother's death came at the worst possible time. Maybe William, being a bit older, was better able to move forward.

I’m still at a loss about how Kate looks bad with any of these stories. Maybe because I just don’t believe the nazi claim?
