Lacey and Harkles common goals:

This is bad news she will be strutting like a cock on a dungheap, FFS just when we thought they had been slapped down up it all comes again like a rancid curry. Bollocks to unpopular they should listen to the people😠😠
 
s there anything more unseemly than rich people complaining about money?

By any normal standards, Harry and Meghan are super wealthy. They have an estimated joint worth of nearly £10 million, and live in a luxury pad in California overlooking the Pacific. They mix with millionaires and billionaires.

Yet Harry saw fit to moan, in that blockbuster interview with Oprah, that his father had “literally” cut him off.

Where do you start with a whine like that? How should we respond to someone worth millions, most of it inherited, saying he should have even more?

Let’s keep in mind that Harry isn’t 19 anymore. He’s 36. His wife’s 39. These are not snotty youngsters. They’re mature adults. Frankly, I’d be ashamed to be living off my parents at that age, however much security I needed to pay for. There comes a time – and it shouldn’t take until 36 – when you need to buy your own dinner.

In any case, we now discover that Prince Charles did not actually cut Harry off at all – at least not financially. Newly released Clarence House records show that Charles gave the Sussexes and Cambridges a whopping £4.5 million during the last financial year.

Just think about that. It’s a huge lottery win. I’m pretty sure that if someone gave me a few million, my first reaction would not be to complain about it. But for Harry and Meghan, different rules obviously apply.

Do they realise just how spoiled it sounds? Do they ever consider that the average person in the UK earns less than 1% of that gift? And do they appreciate just how ungrateful it looks to accept a handout of that scale, and then publicly denigrate the man who gave it, saying he’d cut them off?

No wonder Prince Charles has hit back. In fact, for the second time in just over a week, Harry’s family has contradicted his claims. First we had the matter of Lilibet, and whether Harry had or hadn’t asked the Queen’s permission to use the name. And now this business about cash gifts running to millions.

Given how rare it is for the Palace to weigh in on anything at all, particularly when it’s about family, this all looks terrible for Harry and Meghan. Once again, their attempts at PR have backfired, this time with an even louder bang.

How different it could all have been. Before all these Oprah and California shenanigans, I have two abiding memories of Harry. The first is of that forlorn, grieving 12-year-old walking behind his mother’s coffin. The second is of the adoration in his eyes as he saw Meghan, on Prince Charles’ arm, walking down the aisle towards him. A wedding and a funeral. Both times, I admit to dabbing my eyes, and I’m sure millions of Britons did the same.

We wanted the best for Harry. That’s why no fewer than 30 million of us watched that wedding, wishing him and Meghan a long, happy marriage. Many of us welcomed the new and diverse Royal image, so much so that, even when they left for America, they went with good wishes and sympathy.

But Harry’s attitude since he arrived in LA has eaten up that credit and warmth. He has belittled his own family at a time of grief, made questionable claims, and accused one member of his family of racism – a particularly low blow. And at a time of so much global suffering, he has portrayed himself and Meghan as uniquely victimised.

Harry could have remained silent and dignified. In doing so he would have gained our respect. Instead, he has appeared self-obsessed, disloyal and spoiled. He needs to get a grip.

So scabies has posted PWB has landed & 'he will be expected to quarantine for five days before taking a (hopefully negative) Covid-19 test.'
BIB struck me as odd, could this be laying foundations for not turning up? Probably reading way too much into it!
Sugars are out doing themselves with utter nonsensical crap.
Hopefully first attempt at spoiler works as I know some hate sugar/scabies crap

Possible Itinerary for Haliborange

Friday - Fly into UK. Creep into Frogmore avoiding anyone brandishing rolling pins, frying pans or rotten tomatoes

Saturday - Beg Eugene to be nice to him, and tell her loads of lies to make her feel sorry for him.

Sunday - Catch up on Tattle and relate back to the Haggard One their next best move

Monday - Ring Catherine to check on Will's mood. Rings Papa asking for ever so much forgiveness, and loads of Dosh.

Tuesday - Escapes from Frogger's for a quick talk with staffers, trying to be nice and begging them not to grass on his wife Witchetygrub.

Wednesday - Lunch with Grandmama, asking for forgiveness, and begging to keep as many titles as possible.

Thursday - The big reveal. Checks speech. Stands well away from big bro to avoid being decked. Takes abundance of plasters (just in case). Speech rather rushed as full of surprises (I'm sure). Dashes past security into waiting car before anyone can stop him. Too late, corgis already waiting for him. 😅

For some reason this all played out in my head like a computer game, super mario-type music included 🤣
 
Any guesses on where hazbeen is staying? If he’s staying at Windsor or any other property owned by the Queen my patience with the RF will be wearing thin

I read - on here I think - he's staying in self-contained area of Frog Cott, with Eug etc as his (very) near neighbours. I'd be keeping little August away, cant be too careful, tiny baby etc etc etc

ETA @Pippa M got there before me!
 
Does anyone know if the area of Kensington Palace where the statue is being erected is normally open to the public? I know it will be out of bounds on 1st July but after then will anybody be able to go and see it?
I know it quite well. The garden itself is quite small and has always been closed off with a chest height metal fence but since the front of the palace was opened up for tourists the public have been able to walk around the perimeter. It does look as if they’re replanting and pruning foliage so the statue can be seen, although chunks of the garden is screened off atm understandably so not super easy to tell. Looking at where the plinth is it might well be the sculptor has gone for the Taj Mahal photo as his inspiration. Unless the statue’s v small however, there’s not going to be much room on any bench for Hazbeen to have a photo opp to merch off. 😂😂
 
Is Eugenie even living in frogmore still? Last I head she was doing the Hokey Cokey, she moved in then out again. Then it was rumoured she was back in again. I just find it weird out of all the crown owned properties he would be isolating with eugenie seeing as she has a newborn, it would make more sense that frogmore is empty and he’s isolating on his own there
