The Predictable Palace

[Paigntonian]

Meghan and Harry do Oprah and, what a surprise, the palace has hit back against Meghan - with a dossier that must have been compiled over many months. How very predictable from 'The Firm'.

[ToraToraTora]

do they think there are no consequences to running off at the mouth?

Is there a link to this latest instalment?

[Paigntonian]

I do hope that, eventually, people will see them as they are.

[ToraToraTora]

who? Mr and Mrs Markle?

[ToraToraTora]

you can't gather dirt if there's no dirt to gather.

[MallyJ]

If there is no dirt to gather then why not lie?

As I understand it, it’s not the Palace that has revealed anything, it is individuals who used to work for Harry and Meghan who wanted to give another side to the story before the big interview.

This OP is misleading. As I understand it staff who worked for the couple in the UK have been relating their experiences. This has not come from the palace or ‘the firm’. As usual both are keeping schtum.

I can’t offer a link at the moment. I’m posting on a phone.

Snap milo. Cross posted.

it does seem as though there is enmity on both sides, Meghan has been accused of bullying her staff, and two left according to last nights news. this must be causing such heartache for the Queen to see her family torn asunder.

Is this what the OP is on about?

Apparently the Queen has ordered an investigation into the allegations.To what purpose, other than to smear Meghan?

Is this about the bullying accusation?

If it is, then when there's an accusation of bullying in any workplace, it must be investigated.

[emmie]

quite frankly i am sick of the whole matter, i wish that Harry and Meghan would not give interviews and the Palace to remain resolutely silent but that doesn't look like its going to happen.

[dannyk13]

These tit for tat arguments between Harry,Meghan and the Palace does none of them any good, the whole thing is a sorry mess.

[roopower]

This isn't new anyway. There were accusations of harrassment and bullying months ago when the couple were still part of the royal family.

[emmie]

it is a mess and its only going to get worse i feel. What with Prince Philip in hospital the Queen must be beside herself with worry.

[lady-janine]

Agree with roo. There were allegations of bullying yonks ago so why has she waited until now to complain they are untrue? Very unusual for Royals' staff to say anything about their employment.

Megan is drawn by the money, I expect Oprah pays a fee. Edward is putty in her hands IMO.
