No need to be gleeful over this. None of it is pretty. It's actually quite sad on all fronts for all concerned.


It is so galactically stupid that one almost doubts his sanity. Esp from a person who claims to be SOOOO concerned about his family's security.

He spent half his life screaming at the press for airing dirty laundry and here he is doing the same thing to everyone else in his family. What a self-absorbed, spoiled hypocrite. His father just lost his mother, and Harry decides now is a great time to pile on. Ugh. He's going to need his father and brother one day, because this marriage to Meghan won't last, but they won't be there because he's firebombing all the bridges. The whole thing is tawdry. Not giving it any attention or money.


Well said, pp.


Cool story. Even the Bible says we'll be judged individually , but sure, family . Which family? And what exactly is your definition of family ? You sound like those people who will cover up all kinds of abuses,dysfunction just to maintain appearances in the name of 'family'.

It's laughable, actually. H and M's treatment fits that pattern and is why I believe it. Good for them for giving them the middle finger.


Same. I think a lot of people aren't royal watchers aside from "let's see the wedding dress" are hearing the most recent stuff and think Harry's the good guy.

Royal watchers aren't normal and have to accept that the majority of people aren't enthralled by these people the way they are.




The majority of people I have seen online are like me - not royal family watchers or supporters at all but we started seeing Harry and meghan headlines everywhere = both promoting their stuff and reporting on their stuff and started reading and listening to things. I am sure there are a few ardent RF supporters who don't think the RF can do any wrong but I dont give a fig about the RF and Harry comes across as an immature and petty man. I don't really care about Harry and Meghan either but content on them is being shoved in our faces online 24/7. They are digging their own graves.


Not really. They are online 24/7 right now but give it a week and something else will be there. I don't know these people and they are like any other thing in the media, don't like them, don't care, then click elsewhere, read elsewhere, watch elsewhere. It only takes a second to change over to something else and never see them again.


I can't help but feel secondhand embarrassment for their decisions. I wonder if they just laid low for the next few months...no media interviews, no book releases or social media or podcast or awards ceremony...maybe they could wipe the slate clean a bit? Show up to the coronation with little pomp and circumstance or releases on what she is wearing or what their travel plans are.

I think after this drama, people would be even more interested in watching them at coronation. Its a vulgar reality show. They are doing better than Kardashians.


They were laying low and still posted nasty things about meghan after the Queen's death accusing her of being demanding and all other sorts of drama when she wasnt even there. They make a lot of money with articles about how terrible of a person Meghan is and this will never, ever change. Harry even stated that their of their own press offices will greenlight bad articles about other family members. How/why is this even allowed to happen? Oddly, the american press has no such stories of Meghan being a horrible human either before Harry or now?


Before Harry she was a dime a dozen d list actress nobody cared to write about and now yes, there has been a lot of bad press for her here in America but maybe you are not paying attention to it.

The fact is that M&H are using the mean tabloids and the lack of 'protection' by the palace as one of the reasons they left out of convenience only. The paps were not hounding them. But we cannot really see the protection they did get from the palace because...the stories did not come out. And the stories that did come out were from staff who saw and were affected by her treatment of them.

As we can see from Harry's state of mind with this tell-all, the palace was likely working overtime for years to keep him on the rails.


This person is correct.

Remember the public image Harry used to have before marrying: fun, laid-back, adventurous, bit of a lad, spontaneous, earthy.

Contrast this with reality that's now coming out: angry. resentful. dumb. substance abuser. dumb. academically inferior. out of touch with reality. entitled. deluded.

And consider HOW DAMN HARD the courtiers have worked to paint a picture of him you used to have.


Edward Lane Fox is the genius that made the fun, laid back, adventurous, military hero Harry. He left his employment with the RF right after the wedding

Obviously they live an incredibly expensive lifestyle. Harry said Charles cut him off in the Oprah interview. They could have lived quietly, but still very well, on Diana's inheritance and Meghan's savings, but clearly wanted a more extravagant celebrity lifestyle. Choices.

What will they have left to sell after this? Harry has already sold the family secrets at 38 and lowered his brand by doing so. This money isn’t going to last their lifetime.

Wait. So he has a brand ?

+1 Jesus I wouldn't be gleeful about anything that brings the Taliban satisfaction or amusement. Or a dummy who has now really endangered his family.

Harry whining about his dad cutting him off is what first turned me off Harry and Meghan.

Which makes one wonder about his ghostwriter/editor. Do they hate him? Or are they just seeing dollar signs? In any case there are some unscrupulous people around H&M who're laughing all the way to the bank, while H&M end up looking extremely foolish.

You are deranged.

I'm really curious about the early release of the book. It seems too much of a human error for this to happen spontaneously. If you think how many people are involved in putting books on shelves, surely someone had to be aware of the fact that they are doing it ahead of the global release?

And what it would do to their promotion plans? And, quite frankly, to sales? Now that most juicy parts have already been published.

Didn’t they already get a 100 million from their deals? That should last forever.

The British tabloids are notoriously vicious, regardless of whatever deals may have been struck with the RF press office, but in fact stories of their ongoing difficulty retaining staff continued in the US.


Citation?


What citations do you need? Their top staff whether it’s head of foundation, head of PR, COO, head of audio/podcasting, all have left abruptly, without a next job lined up. It was that bad!

Trading barbs with Islamist thugs certainly sounds very balanced.

I think a bit part of Megan’s problem is that she thought she could portray this warm open persona and then close that door for privacy. It doesn’t work that way there. It reminds me of the queens advice to someone — never hold hands in public because the first time you aren’t holding hands, they will make it headline news. They will use whatever you give them so give them nothing to work with except bland propriety.


But she and Harry have been calculating and taking notes and seeking to take down and destroy these people over petty grievances. That doesn't sound like a genuine open warm person.


This was one of the things that struck me in their docuseries - how EARLY they were busy recording and taking notes and gathering material. It doesn't look like genuine behavior in the slightest. Almost like this has been planned from day 1, like Meghan saw the merch potential and was determined to exploit it.


+1
100% sure Meghan is savvy enough to have noticed the potential.

There was a comment on Twitter from a military analyst on how stupid and dangerous that portion of the book was. Harry’s ghostwriter gave it a like and retweet.

I have a feeling they go through money like water.
