I also find it extremely vexing when this pair are described in the media as "senior royals." That term really only properly applies to the Queen, Philip, Charles and Anne. Neither Harry nor what'sername are royal, in fact. Harry is the fruit of another man's loins and that man was a commoner. And giving them the dukedom of Sussex - wtf? What connection have either of them got to the county? They pay lip service and visit it once; doesn't mean a damn thing. So they can relinquish those titles as well as pack in sucking on the public teat for everything else AFAIC. Like many others I knew Harry had made a giant chump of himself getting hitched up to an American divorcee Hollywood actress. What could possibly go wrong? Plenty still to come I reckon. -- No deal?

They're both a grave disappointment to anyone. Well, you're one of the sharpest observers on this group, Tim, so I fear when you say that, you're probably right; certainly if not already then in the near future anyway. I see video on Twitter of Harry touting for Disney voiceovers for Meghan. I read on the Beeb that they have or want to team up with Oprah Winfrey, FFS. Meghan it seems has a "love of writing" and had a "lifestyle blog where she shared beauty, fashion and travel tips". I can see that these two are intellectual giants and we'll soon be hanging on their every word. Give me strength. It's ironic. They claim they want to give up and **** off to N. America and it would be fantastic for the Royal Family and discerning people the world over if they could just disappear into obscurity and never be heard from again. But it ain't gonna happen. -- No deal? No problem! :-D |

Surely Meghan has a bit of money making potential, with her Hollywood connections. They could probably do a reality tv show, like The Osbournes. The series finale could be Harry meeting his real dad. If that wasn't to their taste, Harry could do an investigation series into who murdered his mum. Probably good to get that one underway ASAP before the main suspect pops off. A second series could investigate the Epstein connection. I know Gore Vidal said the royals were exceptionally boring people, but I think, with the right writers, Harry could make a good fist of it. |

Harry and whatserface saying they're going to leave the Royal Household but take all the family silver with them is akin to the UK saying 'we're leaving the EU but we're going to continue to have a rewarding and cordial relationship. In both cases, you need the consent of the other party before you lay out how it's going to be. Harry has been a *massive* chump and this woman has quite turned his head. cue-up 'when a man loves a woman' by Percy Sledge -- No deal? No problem! :-D |
