Hmm. I’ve been wondering why Charles only stayed for 30 minutes this afternoon. Surely you would stay for at least an hour if you are there to visit, even if they were sleeping? But seeing this, which I know could be completely false, just made me think maybe he went for other reasons.

Some people want to remember their loved ones as they were. I've seen a range of reactions from bedside vigils/climbing into bed for a cuddle to a kiss on the forehead.
 
Imagine being William right now. I’d be bleeping furious with my brother doing this to my elderly grandparents (royalty or not) - he hasn’t got a choice and will be our King one day. He also can’t speak his true mind publicly at the clear disgusting and disrespectful behaviour of his brother (& the narcissist)

Thank goodness I’ve found others who feel the same on here as all I seem to see on my social media is love and adoration for the twats congratulating them on finally “breaking away”

Shame William didn’t get the chance to just bugger off and is left with the royal duties. No brother to support him becoming King one day. I know many see them as privileged and rich (they are ) but there is no way on earth I would want to be King or Queen! Remember seeing rumours before Meghan of Harry liking Jenna Coleman. Oh how things could have been so different 😢

She keeps talking about how awful the press has been to her. But in all seriousness - has it?

I remember when the news that she announced her pregnancy at Eugenie's wedding. I thought that was a really dick move but the papers didn't really report from that perspective.

I genuinely think they gave her a really fair chance. I was surprised at some of the favourable reports that came out in the early days. Things others would have been vilified for were passed without comment.

Am I the only one who thinks this?

Now there's a question - are we really a toxic bunch of racists? Hearing Harry tell us how awful it had been, I deliberately went back to find and review the unfair comments (I don't read the papers, so I had a bit of catching up to do). Bearing in mind that it was so unbearable they had no option but to leave, I was expecting to find the "mother ship" of abuse, but to my eye (and I recognise that is subjective and I'm not wearing Meghan's shoes) the examples are actually surprisingly few and far between.

There are some. The early press story suggesting that Meghan was "straight outta Compton" was inaccurate and I could understand how it might be experienced by her as racist - although in a clumsy way I think it was also reflective of the public excitement at the time about welcoming another commoner to the Royal Family with what we hoped would be interesting perspectives. Meghan seems never to have looked for the more positive or benign slant on anything, even after experiencing the warmth of the crowds at her wedding. To give another example, there were a couple of very badly judged opinions or attempted jokes from Danny Baker and Giles Coren - but these were immediately met with public disgust and Danny Baker actually lost his job at the BBC as a result. Nevertheless, over time those have become the frequently cited illustrations of how the Brits compared "little Archie" to a chimpanzee. Another often quoted illustration of the persecution she endured was a story that avocados are not always produced sustainably, and mentioning Meghan's liking for them. I personally think a normal person would have to try hard to take offence at that one.

Overall, I think the Markles grossly overstated their victimhood because it suited their purposes but unfortunately the press gave them a bit of ammunition and apparently that was enough to condemn us all. If the press behaves irresponsibly, it can't do its job of reporting facts and exposing lies and we can see how we all lose.

Incidentally, I gave up on Twitter at the first attempt, when it failed to tell me what the weather was like in Bridgend. It is perfectly possible to ignore Twitter and not only survive, but flourish.

bleeping hell. How long before Archie is signed up for strictly or I'm a celeb. Its interesting he only seems to appear when they need the cash. Definitely protecting his privacy. Shall we guess how old he'll appear. I'm expecting him to receit lady macbeth whilst holding up a picture Kate
 
Unrelated to anything (or possibly related to everything) all the comments sections on the newer Royal Articles on Daily Mail have been moderated and 0 comments showing. Might just be too early but you’d have thought if they are posting stories at 2am they also have the ability to screen comments at this time.

The only reason I ever look at DM is to read the comment section 😂😂
 
With no empathy for others, you can bet that MM has a serious case of duper's delight at the moment with the fury her parting statement has caused. She is an horrendous person and we can only hope that the majority of people realise this before long and boycott any self-serving Archewell project.....İ don't feel sorry for JCMH but she has totally manipulated him in a way that makes him look bad. For example when they gave the press access to A as new born, it was Harry carrying the doll not her, and she just buggered off when they announced Megxit. A coward not wanting to face up to TRF in person, but spilling snidy venom from across the pond....İ suspect Orca is more of the same and will self-serve as well as enabling old doe eyes.....

The chimp comment always irritates me when I see it bandied around by the sugars. It was ONE tweet and Danny Baker was sacked and people were outraged. The sugars go on and on as if this was daily representation in the media.
As for the interview, I too wonder what size ‘Archie’ will be 😂

Eugenie seems very level headed and lots of reports that she’s a lovely girl. I wonder if Andrew in his vanity did them a disservice making them Princesses when it wasn’t strictly protocol, they would have had far less tabloid attention and they don’t seem to trade on it, they would have had titles, just not be princesses. Anyway, she has put up with Meghan upstaging her right and left and hopefully her beautiful boy has put all that out of her mind. She also looked stunning at her wedding. I love the hairband- I hope she cherishes that photo, they look so happy.
 
With the situation with Phillip (even if only in hospital and not on his deathbed) there has to be some serious hate from Harry to his family to release a statement as they did about something they apparently desperately wanted (freedom found and according to the sugars they wanted it without the review period)

Obviously all families are different and have their issues, the royals being no exception however for a family who have always appeared to go to bat for a Harry (Nazi outfit, Vegas etc) something has certainly changed from his point of view and undoubtedly M has helped to create the situation but Harry has had to want to go along with it, no wonder William is furious I would be too in his situation.

If Philip does die in the coming days I think in the end Harry will bitterly regret their actions of the last few days and depending on the content of the interview seal the negative public opinion on them forever, despite how much cash they throw at PR, they didn’t lightly burn their bridges but bombed them, for M that won’t matter I don’t think she’ll be around as his wife in the future but in the long rum it’s going to have a devastating impact on Harry
 
Laughing at M thinking this Oprah interview is the loudest way to get her voice back. You haven't lost your voice love , you just have duck all of interest to say.
Otherwise the Netflix docs would be flying out, there'd be more podcasts and everyone would be listening.
Also you used your voice when you sent out that message to the Queen telling her you think you know better about service.
On that rare occasion when you did have something to say, no one liked what they heard.
I wish they would stop and think about what they are doing. It's so embarrassing to watch....

Prince Charles is not effectively the Monarch. Unless you have inside knowledge.

The Queen is isolating, he has been carrying out more and more duties for years. This is all pretty well known which is why some experts refer to him as basically a Prince regent. In practical terms, if PP has died, Charles will have to act up and do a lot of the official things the monarch would usually do.
