Interesting perspective from Dominic Lawson; that Harry is the status obsessed one.

https://www.12ft.io/https://www.dai...little-Harry-not-Meghan-grasped-monarchy.html

There is no way on earth Meghan would have been attracted to such a petulant, sub intelligent man child if he wasn’t a prince.
She would have known this wasn’t a marriage for life but a get rich quick scheme.
Hence all her US contacts being left in place, and the speed at which she ( the surrogate) produced Archie the collateral.

The video by Taz shows that Harry is in the devaluation stage. The next step is the inevitable discard. For a narc, the negative publicity is still fuel. Meghan is all over the press and that is what matters to her.

i think once COVID is over, she will have some kind of future in the US as a professional victim. I suspect she’s sitting it out and is pushing Harry’s buttons till he snaps. The book doesn’t paint him in a good light at all.

Hes going the way of Uncle Andrew; status obsessed and useless to the firm.
He could have had a brilliant job as President of the commonwealth ; but he’s pissed all over that with his woke BLM spoutings.

he’ll be back eventually, but will stay hidden from view.
Even if he has loads more therapy, he doesn’t have the intellectual capacity to process, benefit from and move on from the shitshow his life has turned into.

i think he was well hidden within the family and royal press pack and allowed out as the court jester. He has blown his own cover, because Meghan has made him believe he was more important; beyond his capabilities, so she could merch Sussex Royal in the US.

When Needy met Greedy has never been a more apt thread title.

Also that vegan meal stuff. What sort of vegan has roast chicken as their signature dish? You can imagine the scene: k+w invite them round for an informal supper. how can you make that as difficult as possible? Ah yes the old vegan gluten free combo - oh and I dont eat onions, or tomatoes, or olive oil, or salt.....can we come at 6...we have to leave before 8.30...Megs will bring her own wine (and water)...I can just imagine.

Exactly! Perhaps it was a vegan chicken 😂 😂 Megz probably sends a detailed list of forbidden ingredients (via her devoted PA/alter ego) beforehand 😁

I’m confused..... Would that be the ’private room at Soho House‘ originally reported as first date ?

Oh no! ITV have wheeled out Paul Burrell.
He's defending William, saying he was concerned about his brother. He's critical of Harry...and her....Megs wasn't just marrying Hazno, but the family.
Another journalist is being asked about Omid Scabies...she says he's well respected and that it's obvs he had access to Harkles as it gives their version.
Also...intimate details like Hazno said I love you first....demonstrate access.
Another journo says 'it's an open letter ' to the public....but comes at a bad time where priorities In the world have shifted. It should have come out last year.
Burrell says it's not right to air dirty laundry....but then he says Megs is going to be Queen of America!
Burrell mention a Diana.....of course.

I hate that little witch Burrell. He didn't seem to care when darling Diana aired her dirty laundry.🙄

The woman from the Mail was strangely quite nice about Meghan but I was puzzled about the front page from the Sun on the wall behind her.
 
I'm just imagining the first date in the "private room" at Soho House resembling something like the current Coronation Street storyline with Daniel and the escort!

(If you don't watch Coronation Street, Daniel is a recently widowed character and gets the escort to dress up in his dead wife's clothes, for chats and snuggles - no naughties involved!)

"Please wear Mummy's perfume and tiara and tell me happy stories of magical lands afar where you saved all the little children"
 
Talk about hoisted by ones own petard! MM must be off her bleeping skull to think this book will paint her in a positive light. Who the duck does she thinks she is? She is a dime a dozen actress who managed to hoodwink a bleep struck prince. She had the goose that laid the golden egg. That wasn't enough for this schemer! Instead of thanking her lucky stars at pulling off the con of the century,the fucker does the most cuntable move by wanting more. (how much more can you get?). She had managed to have the world at her lumpy feet, more money than most could ever imagine,and global exposure....Naw,that wasn't enough for the ingrate. She is so bleeping used to getting her own way,that she couldnae believe that she wasn't, and could never be the top of the pile. So, in her bleeping stupid delusional thinking, she tried to slag off those above her in the pecking order. My wee Granny used to say.... " Dimming another persons candle, doesn't make yours shine any brighter". duck right off Yacht girl. Your ship has sailed.
 
Just showing a bit of support to the gruesome twosome 😉

There's a good piece behind the Telegraph paywall, titled "Meghan and Harry seem to bring the worst out in each other" by Angela Levin.

Just before Prince Harry got engaged to Meghan Markle, he invited me to Kensington Palace for a chat as I was writing his biography. One of the things he was keen to get across was the importance of teamwork.

“If you want to be a success you have to be a team player,” he told me. “You get taught in the Army that you can’t get anywhere without the support of other people. I agree.”

He even brought up the subject during the BBC interview he and Meghan gave on their engagement day, 27 November 2017. Proudly, he told how he saw Meghan as “an added member of the family. It’s another team player as part of the bigger team,” he enthused.
Meghan gazed into his eyes as she replied that she was looking forward to a “new chapter” in her life adding: “Now it’s time to… work as a team with you.”

Finding Freedom, the new biography by Omid Scobie and Carolyn Durand, confirms what we had already guessed — that, when it came to her role in the Royal family, Meghan wasn’t a team player, but a fiercely ambitious woman who wants to be number one and seemingly finds it difficult to compromise.

Her time with the Royal family has been more of a paragraph than a chapter even, but it’s been long enough for her to become one of the most famous women in the world. Yet in the book she is quoted as having “given up her whole life” for her new role.

I was given generous access to follow Prince Harry on his engagements for more than a year in 2018. He is charismatic and, like his mother, wears his heart on his sleeve, which meant that it was always easy to guess his mood. Every now and then a wave of irritation or resentment would cross his face. But most of the time he was an irresistible combination of royal stardust and accessible everyman, someone who oozed confidence and mischief.

Less than a year on, however, I witnessed this warm young prince morph into a nervy, tense man who seems constantly on edge. It is as if the dark side that we had only had glimpses of previously, have fully enveloped him. It is ironic that the book quotes Harry bemoaning the state of society, asking “where is the positivity? Why is everyone so miserable and angry” - for these are surely questions he must ask of himself.

I watched Harry become increasingly uneasy when Meghan began to make most of the speeches, walked in front of him or pulled his sleeve to sit down – as she did at Canada House in January this year – while he was mid-conversation. She is a mega-watt attention grabber with the eyes of the world upon her and Harry’s shine has faded in her shadow. Does the torment he feels come down to believing he hasn’t done enough for her? But can he ever do enough? Perhaps Meghan is one of those people who never has enough, who, unless everything and everyone around her is not 100 per cent going her way, will always zoom in on the negative.


Sadly it’s this double downing on the bad stuff which seems to have engulfed Harry, to the extent that the closest members of his family are now at the top of his list of grievances.

He told me that William was “the only person in my life I can say anything to and trust completely.” But Finding Freedom reports that he now barely speaks to him for suggesting he took “as much time as you need to get to know this girl.” A source in the book said Harry felt the comment was too snobbish and “p----d him off.”

Harry also told me: “I absolutely adore my grandmother.” The feeling was mutual. Once she passed her 90th birthday she asked Princes Charles, William and Harry to help out more. Harry said: “The Queen has been fantastic in letting us choose what we’d like to do. She tells us to take our time and really think things through.”

Yet in Finding Freedom the complaint is that there were no photographs of them on the desk when Her Majesty delivered her 2019 Christmas message. In fact, there were only kings and heirs to the throne on show, which Harry, at number six in line to the throne, is not.

Harry also no longer seems grateful to his father Prince Charles, who walked with Meghan down the aisle when her father couldn’t come to the wedding because of illness. Charles let it be known that he saw both Harry and Meghan as having an important role in his slimmed-down monarchy and is keeping them afloat financially. Yet we hear the Sussexes complaining that Charles, heir to the throne, had first pick on choice of engagements and dates. Similarly, there are swipes at Kate for not helping Meghan enough, sending flowers, but not checking in on her.

The sad truth seems to be that however much Harry and Meghan stare blissfully into each other’s eyes and however tightly Meghan hangs on to her husband’s arm, they seem to bring out the worst in each other.

The pair of them — described in the biography as “impulsive and impatient” — are said to want to “be in charge of their own narrative”. Where then is the team playing spirit Harry had been so enthusiastic about? Meghan arrived in this family very much as an individual, one whose needs and desires have now seemingly been serviced to a worrying degree.

It’s true, however, that Harry often thought about leaving the Royal family before he met his wife. He confided in me how much he hated living in a “goldfish bowl”, ached to be “something other than Prince Harry” and wanted to lead a “relatively normal life.”

It’s a wish that couldn’t be more misplaced in Los Angeles. Seeing Harry look so dour, claiming to be a victim, it's obvious to me the peace he desires continues to elude him. Settling scores is likely to lead to more unhappiness. Maybe it's time for Harry to take a step back and remember who he was and what was really important to him before all this began.

Ah thank you! I should have googled but I thought it had been Soho Farmhouse.
 
Apologies if already been mentioned but this is new to me, though not surprising (not sure if link will work) It's currently the 22nd reply of best rated comment


"Lady M, Commonwealth, 11 hours ago

The narrative of the relationship is laughable. Everyone knows they first met in Canada when Harry was there for Invictus. He needed a girl for the night and Meghan was arranged for him. She must have been impressive as they had a date the next day and the rest is history."

“Don’t feel you need to rush this,” William told Harry, according to sources. “Take as much time as you need to get to know this girl.”

Harry should have not been surprised nor offended by this comment, Wills took over 10 years to get really serious with Kate!

Also, ALL yanks are demanding and aggressive. SHE was just not willing to change HER ways and adjust to a new way. If she had she may have found it more forgiving.

Really, “ALL yanks are demanding and aggressive”. Bit of a sweeping statement there. I’m married to a YANK who is one of the most passive, humble, kindest, softest, quietest (among many other adjectives) people I’ve had the privilege to know. Demanding and aggressive are words I would never hear from anyone when describing him. Also, I know a great deal of demanding and aggressive Brits.

Ghosh I see Aunty's been having an identity crisis. Also my old chum celebrity former art lawyer Mark Stephens has been following my advice on similar fact evidence and Ive sent him a bill. Which of us do we think is him? Is it you Freda? He always had a mouth on him and everyone you meet in London claims Irish heritage.

Ive been following the new "inside account" of the Thomas Markle debacle with real interest as it is central to the Privacy Case.

It just doesnt add up. There are all the elements of our little Princesses psycho behaviour. The Grandiosity: her just "loving it" descriptions of the extravagant travel and other arrangements being made for Thomas; the references to "my team" and all round James Bondishness surrounding her big fat gypsy wedding as she no doubt took control of an entirely fake "crisis" and used it to run around screaming at the lowly civil servants trying to manage her preposterous expectations of instant global mega-celebrity and imperial power. The grotesque lavishness will ensure such an event never happens again.

At its heart is the vaguely endearing oafishness of her elderly and sick father who foolishly decided to participate in some frankly harmless and innocent pap shots of a kind with which his suddenly globally famous cable tv micro-star daughter and vulgar lifestyle blogger was more than familiar.

Quite possibly he wasnt entirely frank with her when they came out. I can well imagine, despite the Mills and Boon prose descriptions of her endless sweetness and concern, that she is far from easy to deal with and I imagine he is terrified of her; and she may have had an agenda to stop him coming. I mean why hadnt they flown him out sooner? Surely, as with the Middletons some getting to know you might have been in order rather than just flying him in with scant time to get togged up, take the heffer to the shambles and stagger back to Albuqurque with the souvenir double-decker full of shortbread?

Also the massive over-reaction. They make it sound like he'd just released a sex tape or sold nude pictures of his daughter rather than engaged in some ill advised but essentially innocent fund-raising. The justification for his instant excommunication being the overblown crisis that they had created out of a situation that could have been brushed off with elan. The justification for his unforgiveable treatment when he had what is clearly serious heart surgery is even more tortured and just incredible. What it isnt, at any level is the behaviour of a decent compassionate daughter apparently ecstatically in love with her handsome Prince.

You can easily construct alternative explanations for all the deranged drama. Deranged drama it was and deranged drama it remains....I dont believe a word of it.

There are demanding and aggressive people of all countries but my experience of Americans is that basically they are an optimistic warm hearted lot happy to think the best of people but that it takes a long-time to really get to know them when they make the kindest and most interesting friends you'll ever have. I really love Americans, also Germans who can be hilariously funny (likewise Koreans); and half my family is Irish which is a bit like winning the lottery.
