Isn't he 6th in line: Charles, William, George, Charlotte, Louis, Harry.

Even more reason to leave. Forgot about the little one.

What do people think of them leaving Archie in Canada with friends while they are in the UK?

Contrast to when Prince Andrew stepped in his sh*t and they asked that he be removed from office.

The link doesn't say anything. It neither affirms nor condemns Harry.

Oh trust me, the Royal Marines saying they're not asking their Captain General to stand down and are siding by him is a clear choice.

In contrast the Grenadier Guards have frozen Andrew out and given quotes about how mommy pushed him into the position in the first place.

It still doesn't change the point that you linked an image that neither affirms nor condemns Harry's decisions. IT's simply stating that Harry wishes to continue his role with the Royal Marines. That's all.

DP. I think that by saying this they are actually making it obvious that if he does step down he was forced to. And honestly I’m pretty sure he’s the only royal who has done two tours in afghanistan so I don’t see a great replacement for him with respect to this org.

The same place for him now as there was one, two, three years ago.

To be a prince. Not a baby.

Correct. He has always been sort of floating along - and headstrong Meghan pushed him into making a decision.

Time will tell if that was the right or wrong decision for him.

I do think he comes off as spoiled and ungrateful, though.

Good for her for encouraging her husband to create his own path in life. Maybe he needed her support to know its ok. He has a family and his own life. He is not going to be king. Neither is spoiled or ungrateful. In other countries, grandchildren not in immediate line are losing their titles, funding and place if you read CNN so he is probably following their lead. He should be able to choose his life now that William has his kids. Before his kids, he was the spare. Now he has been replaced and no true purpose.

Timing was about Kate's birthday. Meghan seems to have a fixation.

Kate was a snotty SIL who did nothing to welcome Meghan. Didn't throw her an engagement party, bridal shower/hen do, or baby shower.

She refused to even meet with Meghan until Harry proposed.

Then after Meghan was constantly derided and attacked in comparison to her for two years, she said nothing.

Happy Birthday to Kate.

How do you know any of these are true?

With the caveat that I am more sensitive to this than most as we've lived overseas and in some places that weren't so safe, my spouse and I have a rule that one parent has to be on the same continent as the kids. I'm not judging them, but I find it a little surprising.

The Queen has consistently failed to understand the emotional needs of anyone in her family, with truly devastating effects: Margaret, Charles, Diana, and now Harry and Meghan. She's all duty and stoicism, but those admirable attributes come with a real blind spot toward others. Because she has such power over her family members' personal lives, this causes repeated crises in the BRF.

I like and admire the Queen, but gosh, you'd think she'd learn by now to listen and take seriously when her loved ones express real human, emotional needs.

I don't know how true to life this was, but there's an episode of the new season of The Crown where the Queen goes to a mining community in Wales after a mining disaster kills over 100 schoolchildren. She basically admits to someone in that episode that she lacks the capacity for empathy.

What is true about that disaster is that she herself had to be forced to visit, much like when Princess Diana died and she was silent for a week.

You do know the Crown is fiction

NP: Yes, but based on the biographies and information revealed by former royal family members (King Edward had a good one), aides, and courtiers.

Even if we didn't have that - its easy to look back on the Queen's biggest moments and see an inability to broadcast empathy.

After Diana's death (and the Queen was dragged kicking-and-screaming back from Balmoral in Scotland) - she might as well have been having her teeth pulled when announcing how sorry she was over Diana's death. And don't tell me she was taking care of William and Henry. That duty fell to Tiggy Legge-Bourke (Charles' nanny and supposed girlfriend) plus Charles himself.

Contrast to this message after the Australia wildfires -

You also have no empathy and are reluctant to understand how the Queen was raised and how she was expected to behave in public or what is it like to be in that role where you are under the lens 100% of the time.

She was raised to live by a very specific set of rules and precedence that had governed the monarchy for hundreds of years. When Diana died, she wasn't a member of the royal family. She was a commoner. Precedence dictated that Diana's death would be handled by Diana's family. That is why she initially stood out of it. As you like fiction, there's a very good movie about the Queen during this period.

She has shown herself to be remarkably adaptive and responsive to changes in the world around her. The monarchy changed greatly from the 1990s to today. Hugely. And it's largely because of her.

Diana was never a commoner. She was born a Lady and she died Diana, Princess of Wales.

Regardless she was the mother of the future king and the second heir to the throne.

The Queen just didn't like her and everyone knew it. The fact that the public forced her to come down, make a speech, and give Diana the full burial rights of a senior royal is a testament to how much she was loved.

The Queen even bowed to her coffin because she was getting way too much heat.

Diana was born a commoner. She had a title, but she was not royal - that's what commoners are. Even daughters of earls are commoners.

She lost her HRH when she divorced, making her a commoner again.

This is quite simple because that's how the tradition - which has legal origins and workings - worked.

I do think the Queen did not realize how popular Diana had been or how much expectations had changed at the time of Diana's death. She was doing what she thought was correct, staying out of the funeral affairs because Diana was no longer part of the Royal family. I do know you prefer to hate on the Queen and will never change your mind so there's no point persisting with this.

That’s not the definition of a commoner.

This is backwards though. Archie has already "lost" his title, funding and place. Now Harry wants to swap, to give up his place but keep Archie in the line of succession (or something).

None of it actually works like that.

He was happy enjoying the perks of being a spare until he married. Didn’t hear a peep about a normal job and not accepting money from the royal family until Meghan came around. She thought she would be a celebrity marrying Harry and realized she had a place in the family, but not at the top. She will use her title to get everything she can. F tradition.

You have zero idea of exactly what their relationship is/was. You just hate Kate. You can’t have a sensible conversation because you must insult Kate at every turn. This isn’t about Kate.

...you brought her up nutso.

No need to name call.
