Do the Tales Get Taller?

With respect nancat we have, so many threads about Harry what more can be said ?

This is the ugly tale of a hateful estranged child who married someone elses estranged child who together create hatred and drama and sell stories for money because they dont have the same values or another way to make money.

And yes I imagine the tales can get taller. The only limit is their imagination (and life span)

Sooner or later even the American press will realise they are not truthful. God help them when that happens, they’ll make mincemeat of them.

You've only got to read the tales about family problems on gransnet to realise that the things Harry is saying aren't actually tall tales. They're just tales of families with problems. Plenty just as bad on here from GN members. Why should the royals be any different? If anything, you'd expect them to be worse, given the crazy lifestyles they life.

His tales may get taller but apparently his penis did not.

One of Prince Harry’s startling revelations in his new memoir, “Spare,” includes the reveal his “todger” was frostbitten following a March 2011 expedition to the North Pole.

While standing beside his older brother at Westminster Abbey on April 29, 2011, Harry writes that he was still recovering from the 200-mile Arctic charity walk.

^During the trip — which raised £2 million ($2.38 million) for the Walking with the Wounded — the Duke of Sussex was joined by four ex-servicemen who were badly wounded in the war in Afghanistan and their flight was delayed because of cracked ice.
And he was still suffering from the after-effects, as he writes how he regaled his nervous brother, their father King Charles and friends with tales of his trip at a pre-wedding celebration the night before the big day.^

“Pa was very interested, and sympathetic about the discomfort of my frost nipped ears and cheeks,” he writes in the book, which comes out Jan. 10, adding that he didn’t want to overshare about his penis, which he learned was also frostbitten after he arrived home.

“While the ears and cheeks were already healing, the todger wasn’t. It was becoming more of an issue by the day,” he says.

Following the wedding, Harry says that he went to the doctor after using Elizabeth Arden cream.

Let's hope that the older woman he rode like a stallion in a field at the back of a pub wasn't too scarred by her experience.

Getting very bored with the whole tribe of them really.

Well, he might not wanted to have over shared then, but he's oversharing for Britain now unfortunately.

There should be a separate Royal Family section as I’ve lost count of the number of threads about them. I keep hiding them , then they seem to multiply.

Oh gawd, not another thread!!!

We are up to seven Harry based threads in the Active list at time of posting.
Even I’m sick of it now.
I decided yesterday morning that I was going to buy the book.
But now - no chance.
And I hate the way that this sort of thing keeps the real news out of the way.
Sunak must be delighted

But sadly they don’t actually make me sleep

Seriously though enough threads on this please .

Do the tales get any taller?
Do the threads get any more boring ?
🥱 🥱🥱🥱🥱

Too much information (the frostbitten penis.)

Being thoroughly trashed all over the media and social media is the exact reason they are telling their story

If everyone stopped talking about them, so would they i expect

Exactly. Does he not keep anything private?
I agree with your views GM

Exactly so.
The estrangement and other threads provide details of family rifts, many longstanding. Generally, responses reflect a level of understanding of the complexity of family relationships.
The RF has generations of dysfunctional relationships. Good parental role models are thin on the ground. Add the peculiar expectations like 4 year old Prince Charles shaking hands with mummy when she returned after a long absence, children growing up in the public eye, the Shakespearean competitions to be most popular, leaking of private info to chosen press outlets etc etc - no wonder emotional and psychological stability isn’t their bed rock

I’m just feeling glad the Queen is no longer around to read all this stuff.

I think it’s Harry who’s doing the trashing. The media is reporting what he’s said.

That would be a great idea - maybe GN should take note!

I'm so glad the Queen isn't around to read all this stuff too, but I do feel sorry for Archie and Lili, who will be able to read it all. Like other kids whose parents have estranged them from their families, they may not take their parents side.

When a parent takes the decision to cut off their parents and siblings, they do not realise the effect on the child. I have resented the decision my Mother made to cut off her siblings , my uncles, aunts and cousins as I used to have a vibrant and loving, fun family. It then shrunk to being only my parents and even my GP were time limited to 2 hours 3 or 4 times a year. We grew up with no one. Kids deserve to be loved by lots of people.

When Charles as a little boy greeted the Queen with the many
officials waiting to greet her, she stroked his cheek and gave him a kiss, it does seem cold but it was of it’s time.

Yes maddy Harry's doing the trashing his family are saying nothing and for me, he's doing far more damage to his own reputation than anyone else could possibly do.
