WTH? They clearly weren’t planning on staying in U.K. long.

This has mentioned by me twice already in this thread. People keep skipping over it. To me, it’s huge and says they aren’t discussing anything, merely informing.

I think Meghan and Harry expected the Queen and Prince Charles to roll over and cave to their demands (like they ALWAYS DO). The Firm has bent over backwards to give them everything they’ve asked for. Why should this latest plan be anything different? They underestimated the public backlash for disrespecting the Queen.

I think the Windsors have underestimated the public backlash against them IMO. This is the trending topic in Arabic, Spanish, French, and English globally with more than 80% of the pieces sympathetic to the Sussexes.

Honestly, I don't think they've 'bent over backwards'.

They gave them the same wedding they gave Eugenie. Which means it was standard far for a royal.

They gave them a tiny 4-bedroom house when all the Queen's children are living in massive 20-bedroom castles and Will+Kate have 12-bedrooms between their two homes.

They sent them on tours which is good - but that's also work and Meghan was expected to be the most photographed woman in the royal family without the benefit of a permanent hairdresser/makeup artist or personal dresser. Both of which Camilla and Kate have.

The basically gave the Sussexes what was required nothing more when Meghan/Harry are the stars and crowd-drawers of that family whether they like it or not.

Beyond that, they didn't utilize Meghan at all. She gives brilliant speeches, talks, and can host forums. She could have easily been sent to do UN Women talks with Sophie, had some appearances at refugee camps with WHO (as she's done in her past), and opened up diverse media conversations on network talks.

Instead they shamed her and asked her to be quiet.

He is a very minor royal at this point now that William has kids. Equal housing would be to William and Kate, not the parents. Going on tour sounds pretty terrible. Megan is the spouse of a minor royal. She is also a new mom. She is very capable and much more warm and charming or so it appears but she probably doesn't have to follow the rules as closely. Hopefully things will lighten up once the Queen passes but it doesn't look like a great life.

Harry is still 6th in line for the throne and Williams kids are in pre-school. If they want to send Charlotte out to give a talk on the economic impacts of coal mining, by all means. Send her on.

Equal housing or even basic housing wasn't given. With four bedrooms they couldn't even host more than one set of friends or have a live-in nanny. And that's just with one kid. Yes, these are rich people's problems but it shows pettiness that the royal family set them up like this.

Late to this party but is there a theory why they were given so much less? I realize that he isn't the heir but he is farther up the line than most and apparently the second most popular royal per the Today show. Seems like he is a valuable commodity that they should have wanted to keep happy/in the 'firm'.

Honestly, I think William was involved. I can't say he hates Meghan but I also don't think he likes her...at all.

If he intervened, the Queen and her courtiers would be far more likely to not 'upgrade' the Sussexes. Especially since Charles is a pushover.

Ever since they announced the Sussexes were leaving Kensington Palace while Meghan was 8 months pregnant and William didn't say a word, didn't try to get them to stay or light a fire under his courtiers butts and dust off one of the dozens of rooms in the Palace itself for them (they were living in a tiny 2-bedroom cottage!) I figured he was behind it all.

And before someone shouts 'they spent 2 million pounds on Frogmore renovations' - they spent 1 million pounds just on renovating the Kensignton Palace driveway.

2 million is nothing.

PP--thanks. Quick question--Did the Sussexes actually want to leave the Palace? Or was it a case of "since you won't give us a good apartment, just this tiny bungalow, we will have to move out to Windsor?" Also, how often is the Queen actually at Windsor? It seems like she is either at Buckingham palace or up in Sandgriham (spelling?). I think that Windsor was more of a retreat for the royals when traveling was more difficult/slower.

I wonder if Meghan and Harry were worried that the Queen demand that Archie remain in U.K.? She has legal custody of those minors in direct line for throne, right?

Harry and Meghan using Archie as leverage?

She does indeed. But how far does that go? (I.e. I could see her have custody of George but Archie is so far back in line)

It’s power either way. They were wise to take him off the board.

Please. The queen doesn’t want custody of their baby who is 7th (?) in like to the throne. GMAFB.

Good grief try to keep up.
It’s not about custody. It’s about leverage. They were wise to keep him out of play.

Elsewhere online someone speculated that she's keeping him in Canada so that Megan will have custody in the divorce, after Harry goes back to England m

Goodness I thought they were never getting married! Or was it divorced by the end of the first year? Or is that she’s infertile and he’ll leave her soon?
Can’t keep up.

You are delusional. The overwhelming response is that the Sussexes should be stripped of their titles.

Try again. The world is on their side watching racist Britain burn.

What's there to distract from? He'll be in his mom's arms by midnight. Meanwhile the Cambridges left George for weeks with the Middletons.

So suck it.

She certainly doesn’t come across as maternal. I wouldn’t have flown 5,000 miles from my 8 month old under any circumstance. She seems to prefer Harry hold him, too.

I don't see this as highly unusual? I left my newborn to fly 6 hours to another country for a work conference where I had to present. I left baby with spouse and nanny, but in this case, maybe MM trusts her friend, who has three kids of her own, apparently.

So I guess Meghan has a friend she's close enough to to entrust with her child, making her a bad mother, but Meghan is also a narcissistic monster who has cut off every friend she's ever had. OK.

Not true. The Sussexes were offered Apartment 1 and declined it! It says so on their website! Apt. 1 is larger than Will & Kate’s.

To all the pearl-clutchers: didn’t the Cambridges leave an infant George with the Middletons while they went off on a Caribbean vacation? It’s not like Archie was dumped on the doorstep of an orphanage.

Nice try, but the Middletons are George's family. Who did they leave Archie with? Her dad? Her sister? Unless her mom is in Canada watching him (and I haven't seen that reported anywhere) that means they left their kid with strangers. Or friends that the kid is not familiar with, at best. That's gross.

To all those worried about Archie's well-being. His mom and dad are already on their way back to Canada. They took a evening flight out.

You're welcome.

Meghan’s PR lies. No legit source— just her usual “friends?” PR spin.

It was the largest most prestigious address. If they wanted it, it was/is theirs for the taking. I’m simply rebutting the notion that they were dissed.

No. The public seems to be sympathetic and wishing them well.
But okay... we’ll all stop calling him Prince Harry

Those are not diametrically opposed. You can be sympathetic and wish people well, and at the same time believe that they should not be prancing around as royals if they don't want the royal responsibilities that go along with it.
