Meghan and Harry. Has anyone changed their opinion after the interview with Oprah?

AGAA4 (great name by the way!) I have a feeling you may be disappointed.

Me too Lexisgranny!

I totally agree with your post @ 15.35 Lexisgranny. How can any member of the RF feel they can have an open and honest conversation with H if the content is then broad cast on CBS in America, by one of M's friends.

And some people wonder why others are of the opinion that coming between H and his family was always one of M's goals.

Have to agree there Smiles

How awful, no one in the royal family can risk speaking to Haz
.knowing any conversation will / can be repeated on an America tv station,

Feel so sorry for Charles and William

Nobody can enter in to an honest and productive conversation when trust has been lost.

That is so true. No one can possibly speak to them now for fear of whatever they say being broadcast to the world.
Does Harry fully understand what he’s doing I wonder. I’m certain Meghan understands, but what of Harry. He could easily end up completely estranged from his family. Is that what he wants?

When is the baby due?
I really have no idea.

Summer. So June, July?

I echo what others have said, how on earth can there be any progress as to building bridges when every conversation is relayed back to CBS to be shared with the world. Just terribly disloyal and talk about fanning the flames,

Gayle King reliably informs us that Meghan's showbiz friends attest to the fact as to how sweet she is. That may well be true, but that side of her character may not always play out in all relationships. I imagine she came to the set of "Suits" as an equal with her fellow actors, the staff at the palace were in a subordinate position to her and those are the ones, who allegedly felt they weren't treated very well.

I totally agree with you (and Lexisgranny!) Smileless

To be honest, watching this couple tear a family apart is soooooo upsetting.

maddyone Harry is all but estranged now, I should think.

I think she's very worried about the bullying investigation (with good reason) and perhaps H was trying to put pressure on William and Charles over that, and it didn't work.

As it seems that all conversations will be related to the press I imagine that personal contact between the families will be pretty close to zero. It's really an impossible situation for the royals. Can you imagine it 'they apologized! We were right all along!' Or 'William refused to apologize! We were right all along!' The narrative is definitely skewed.

So right Daisymae

When I first read about Harry and Meghan (2017?) one thing that struck me was how she’d been so sympathetic over his loss of his mother.

That rang a bell right back to Diana telling Charles how sad she’d felt for him when she watched the funeral of Mountbatten.

I suspected then patterns were being repeated and things wouldn’t end well - my money was on eventual estrangement but between Harry & Meghan not Harry and the royals.

Daisymae It's certainly loaded and whatever way I look at it they are all locked into a war of attrition. The spoils being what? Everyone's unhappiness?

Apart from anything else I find it so hypocritical that these conversations are relayed to the media but Meghan has disowned her father for doing the same. I think I once posted at the beginning of the Meghan and her Dad saga that she wouldn’t be able to trust her Dad not to pass on any conversations or letters to the media so she’d be loathe to make contact. Here she is (with Harry) doing the same, but without the exact content. After veiled threats via her pals of saved emails etc it’s not conducive to mending fences is it?

It doesn't look like they want to mend fences tbh, it looks more like they want to 'win'.

I agree Nell but I wonder what they think the prize will be?

Maybe they think they're holding a ticking bomb tickingbird and they can through fear, emotionally beat the RF into submission.

If they have saved emails etc they should produce them and if they do have them it begs the question why they saved them to begin with.

Yes Smiles makes one wonder why they would save emails and why they’d make sure their friends passed that info to the media. Suspect behaviour.

Nell - that's a good question - why? There's certainly a need to be proved right. Apart from that, why would you invite the world and his wife into your private life?

Money? As in to keep their faces in focus. Plus the need to dominate the situation, which is the goal of most toxic people. I also think there is some desire to 'punish' the mothership of the RF for not trotting after when M 'hit the ground running'. She was considered their greatest asset, by them, us, H, herself, but only on her terms?

Michelle Obama has spoken kindly of Megs

Michelle Obama is a kind woman.
