Harry and Meghan to resign

Tim, nice but dim. It is a well known fact that nearly all male members of the royal family are at best 15w.

I think this sums up the issue; it was all just the "normal" way and they should just have accepted it.

Good for them for not accepting it, IMO.

I don't think anyone is saying they should have accepted it, they should have bought the issue up within the family. Instead they've just ran to the media about it each time.

It's obviously gotten worse since they both joined the unemployment line, Netflix came along and said we'll pay you X million to dish the dirt on your family.

It's all rather crass.
 
except there was no dirt - the dog that didn't bark

commonwealth racism heritage, a broach, stephen lawrence they appropriated, are the americans lapping it up, has their popularity improved,
also some unconscious racism when servants/family said she didn't need skin coloured tights

She's a really nice woman.

I've always got that impression (see the OP). To be honest, given the history with his mum, I find it astonishing that the public can't see why he's so protective of his wife in that awful tabloid goldfish bowl.

I think they deserve immense respect for standing up to it. And they refuse to fade into obscurity with bags of money; good on them for shining a light on it all.

I agree that his position is understandable in defending his wife from the press, but not every adverse comment is about race, anti American/Hollywood maybe. Calling out their environmental hypocrisy was fair. It is also lazy to characterise Britain as racist to an American audience without any real context, just one sided anecdotes. The mountain of ruined familial relationships, on balance of probability indicates where most of the problems lie.

What bags of money.

Harry has grown up in a lifestyle which involves millions of pounds being spent a year around if not on him. Whatever money he got via Dianas will and Charles bunging him a few million is nowhere near enough.

They're selling their royal association for the money required to get slightly close to that. Can farm that for the rest of their lives because Harry is the only person to have been a senior royal that is likely to accept cash for family gossip.

Wouldn't be surprised if the rest of the family refuses to have a meaningful conversation with him ever again. How can you talk to your own relative if you know they're compromised into selling information on family affairs.
 
Harry may talk like someone with an education and use the correct sounding words, but he's making poor decisions because he isn't very bright. It doesn't come down to much more than that.

Seems more like they're milking it these days, as a journalist pointed out recently you don't get that sort of coverage anymore, the photos that get released are generally public appearances etc.. certainly when the Royal children are concerned.

Pretty much. He's worth low 8 figures, even if cut off they could have lived in a large 7-figure house in California (in a gated community if they'd so desired) and she's have somewhat of an upgrade to her TV actress lifestyle without either of them having to work again.

Instead, they've gone for the large 8 figure mansion and they seem to want more of an A-List lifestyle, that requires some serious paychecks to sustain if they want staff, drivers, private security etc.

He doesn't seem too bright, he only got 2 A-Levels (a B in Art and D in Geography) despite going to one of the best schools in the country and it's alleged that a teacher helped him cheat in Art.

I do wonder if he will regret throwing his family under the bus, time is on the side perhaps of the Royal family, they're going to attract publicity regardless and maybe have an advantage playing the long game, in 10 years time Royals visiting some country is still going to be big news, but in 10 years time is anyone going to be interested in yet another interview about how some Royal may or may not have done a racism in talking about the skin colour of the baby or how Megan had mental health issues at the Palace and found it difficult to settle in? I guess the Kardashians have managed to string out being famous for being famous but they're a bit marmite as a result.
 
In ten years time Harry may be the brother of a King, but so was Edward the VIII. He also faded into obscurity although living nearby in Paris.

The Venn Diagram of the people who are outraged by Harry and Meghan being on the TV, and the people who should probably have their Hard Drives checked, is almost a complete circle...
 
Meghan(&Harry - do we still need to mention him, as a subservient intelligence) is kinda the reverse of the previous softpower aspect of HRH RIP,
they create adverse publicity for the country, themselves, capturing royalties that would have been tourism credits.

Meghan missed the trick of mentioning the B word,maybe as symptomatic, of her popularity.
