What with Harry's extraordinary attack on his brother and Meghan's take on Meghan being perfection personified, can the rift ever be healed?

Harry spoke quite wistfully, I thought, of his life with his family, an impression that didn’t diminish when he referred to his Californian residence as 'home sweet home' and said this is where he is meant to be, or words to that effect. Somehow I couldn't quite believe he meant it. It's all so very sad.

Barmaid seems to have got this right but just to make it absolutely clear,
Diana was an aristocrat, her name was Lady Diana Spencer.
When she married Charles, she became HRH Princess of Wales.
When they divorced, she lost the HRH and was called Diana, Princess of Wales.
When Meghan married Harry, she was called HRH Duchess of Sussex.
When they left the RF their HRH was not taken off them, but they were asked not to use it.
If they were to divorce, she would be known as Princess Henry and would remain that until she married again and then she would lose that title.
Hope this has cleared up any misunderstanding.
Neither of them had a chance against the racist bigots in the palace and the establishment.It was always all about colour.
I forgot to mention that if they have the Duke and Duchess titles taken off them, Meghan will still have the Princess Henry title.
MONEILL45, don't be ridiculous.

That’s right, Barsel. Since Meghan isn’t of royal blood she is not Princess Meghan and could only ever style herself Princess Henry. Princess Michael of Kent is an example.
MONEILL45. It's sad if colour is involved, because she's got hardly any colour at all. The USA had a law back in the day which aimed at defining what a '***' was; the law settled on the 'not one drop of *** blood' test, which meant that there must be no trace of black involvement in the individual's history.
Hitler took great interest in rece and eugenics, but he eventually decided that using the same test to catch Jews was not appropriate in Germany.
'not one drop' is ridiculous bearing in mind the history of humankind. And yet there are still people who have a 'touch of the tarbrush' mentality.
That's right Naomi, she wouldn't be Princess Meghan.

MONEILL45, I echo Barsel. Don’t be ridiculous. This country was jubilant when those two married.
Atheist, they have said that the main reason they left the RF was because of racism.
Not just the RF, but the media and the British people.
This sounds better to them than to admit they didn't want to put in the work of being a Royal.

I actually think that’s a wicked accusation, I really do.
Obviously, we only know anything about Harry and Meaghan from either the ‘hated’ media, or the ‘trusted’ documentary team at Netflix, neither of whom could lie straight in bed if their lives depended on it.

Harry appears to have matured into a man with a major chip on his shoulder about the cards life has dealt him thus far.

Unlike his brother, whose career path and destiny have been laid out since the moment of his birth, Harry is doomed to be the proverbial ‘spare’, with no defined role or position to fulfil.

Apart from his time in the army, where he must have relished the structure and simplicity of military life, he has drifted with nothing to do, apart from get into trouble and date girls.

Finally, he has met someone who shares his somewhat immature and idealistic ideas about conservation and climate change, and has listened to his endless woes about the tragic loss of his mother, and his suffocating life in an institution he detests, apart from the wealth and privilege it affords him.

Harry appears to see Meaghan as the proverbial answer to all his problems, and he is clearly besotted with her.

Meaghan however, is very very different indeed.

She has lived in the real world, with some success as an actress, and must have seen marriage to Harry as a pathway to castles, ballgowns, and twenty-four-seven adoration and deference.

Sadly, she appears to have found the pecking order of royalty, which has been in place for over a thousand years, not to her liking, and decamped to America, with Harry in tow, both of them bolstering up their inward-looking obsession with how badly the whole world, including Harry’s family and the dreadful media, have treated them.

It does appear, that Meaghan is the driving force behind the sensational documentary series, given the advance preparation of twenty-four seven camera access that makes up nearly all of it.

She comes across as a self-pitying diva with the clanging absence of realisation of just how privileged she is in her multi-million-dollar mansion with her two beautiful children, and her adoring, if somewhat lost and confused husband, to listen adoringly to her tales of woe.

But as you would expect with two such utterly self-centred boorish ungrateful immature fools as this couple are, they have not the slightest inkling of the need to look beyond tomorrow.

What happens when the novelty of this documentary dies down, and the speed of its loss of impact will be equal to the height of its interest – huge, and rapid, and then what?

You can’t make a lifetime career out of being a victim, and as long as Harry has the word ‘Prince’ in front of his name, and Meaghan the word ‘Duchess’ in front of hers, the sympathy they obviously believe is their complete entitlement, is never going to be forthcoming, especially here in the UK where people are struggling to pay bills and get hospital appointments.

When the novelty wears off in the U.S., what then?

Showbusiness, and that is what Harry and Meaghan are in, is a voracious capricious beast that gobbles up anything that grabs its sixty-second attention span, before it spits it out and moves on to something else in its endless need for the next ‘thing’ to excite the public with.

The next twelve months will be interesting, when the novelty of a member of the royal family who speaks to the world, but sadly, only ever to spend his life moaning about how hard done to he is, and a wife who clearly feels she was sold a pup by marrying him, wears off, what then?

Enjoy your brief moment in the sun Sussexes, it was never going to last.

But you are both too immature and self-obsessed to get around to realising that, until that reality bites you in the bottom.

And it will, because it always does.
> Ellipsis. If we knew them personally we still wouldn't know if they were lying or not would we?

No, but it would be easier. Most people here seem to have formed an opinion of Harry and Meghan based on what they've read or seen in "the media" rather than knowing them personally. We all read and watch different media, and we all have our own biases and preconceptions, and so, shaped by all of that, we all reach different conclusions about what Harry and Meghan are really like ... or, we don't reach any conclusion at all, and we admit we don't know what they're really like, and whether they're telling the truth.

It's interesting, that the world has come to the conclusion that the couple are dense, self-opinionated, arrogant, attention-seeking, mean-spirited, numpties with an utterly unjustified sense of entitlement, backed up with massive paranoia that makes them see conspiracies against them from the world in general, and Harry;s family in particular.

That would be sad, but for the fact that the couple have enticed Netflix into paying them millions of dollars, and filming them night and day as they spout their pointless garbage and revel in their wealth and privilege, to prove that the world's perception of them is actually more than accurate.

is it inconceivable that she was attracted to him then ?

AH, you’re forgetting the Oprah interview.

Atheist, Harry and Meghan’s accusation.
is it really so difficult to believe that a family of arch-conservatives who presided within living memory over a brutal colonial racist empire might not be entirely errr progressive on the subject of interracial marriage
Untitled - // “ She has lived in the real world, with some success as an actress, and must have seen marriage to Harry as a pathway to castles, ballgowns, and twenty-four-seven adoration and deference.”

Not at all - I don;t doubt that the couple love each other.

Whether or not that love will stand up to the strains of missed opportunities, isolation in a foreign country, and the absence of the attention they so desperately crave, remains to be seen.
Question Author
Untitled, you clearly don’t know what they said - but it was nothing to do with the empire.
didn’t say it was…. but i don’t think the allegation that the royal family might be a bit racist exactly strains credulity
