Seems a bit harsh? All that way too. He landed in the UK a few hours ago. Without Meghan and the children.
From the Telegraph just now:
“ The Duke of Sussex will not meet the King this week, the Telegraph can reveal.
Prince Harry, 39, landed in London on Tuesday morning and had made no secret of his hopes to see his father during his visit.
But a spokesperson for the Duke said: “In response to the many inquiries and continued speculation on whether or not The Duke will meet with his father while in the UK this week, it unfortunately will not be possible due to His Majesty’s full programme.
“The Duke of course is understanding of his father’s diary of commitments and various other priorities and hopes to see him soon.”
I just think if the King doesn't ’find time’ to see his son then Harry might well just think ‘sod it’ next time/if he comes over.
I know Harry bad mouthed the family in his book ‘Spare’ but still …
What do you think?

Seventeen pages! Only GN could get its knickers in such a twist over a meeting which could/could not have, should/should not have (delete as appropriate
) taken place. We should really offer popcorn for any threads about the royal family, as the H&M haters start foaming at the mouth!
If you change to 100 posts per page it doesn't look as bad, MissInterpreted
Only five pages so far.
Five to go! 🍿🍿🍿🍿🍿

For the first time ever, I’m feeling a bit sorry for them!
They have so little loving family in their lives (each other, two children and her mother) and yes I know that’s their choice after all the misery they felt couldn’t be endured any longer in UK.
I don’t begrudge them brief moments of being treated like royalty whenever they turn up to the odd event or trip abroad- it obviously means a lot to them or they wouldn’t do it.
They seem to want a part time, pick and choose celebrity life which really isn’t suited to our daily dutiful (and sometimes dull) monarchy.
In famous footballing terms, can they do it on a wet and wintry Wednesday night in Stoke… nope, they’re more Messi than Ronaldo!
Shades of the Duke and Duchess Of Windsor who had to ‘make do’ with faux regal trips and similar occasions to still seem relevant.
There have been comments about how much happier Harry looked when he was in London.
Maybe because he was flying solo, and was more ‘himself’, without constant hand holding and back rubbing helping him on his way.

Even if you didn't forgive him. If you had so many residences and rooms you couldn't count them you'd offer to put him up wouldn't you?
Well, I wouldn't although some might.
I think I might.
The thing is, that if Harry were to rock up one day with my darling grandchildren, (I'm Charles now by the way), I would most certainly put the family up. So I'd go for the charitable option and do so for Harry on his own.
It seems that for the British Royals, blood is not thicker than water. You do not 'find' time to meet someone, you 'make' it. So even if it's just a light lunch, or a video call, that would count as a meeting... but of course, as we say in Malta, only the people who put stuff in the pot know what there is in the pot...
Seconds before that photograph they were meeting people,
a young girl approached them with a tray, Megan spotted a camera and pulled Harry away to stand for the photograph, so
rude
Clothes, Glorianny?
Do you have an opinion on this dress? I think it was nearly £3k. (Can't remember the designer).
Very ugly feet. I'd be inclined to cover them up a bit more. 😺
I do think it’s disingenuous that Herself claims to be 49% Nigerian when it’s documented that she’s only 12% black, and out of that 12% she’s 49% Nigerian.
Think about it. Her dad is white, so that’s 50% at least white.
Her mum is mixed race so that’s less than 50% black.
She’s passed as white for years before she knew the race card was worth playing.
At 12% Black, she is, according to the US Jim Crow race laws, white.
It’s quite sickening how she’s claiming to be a Nigerian princess.
Then again, she's a grifter, like all the Spam Nigerian Princes I get emails from!!

Yes, not her best feature.

Don't you suppose he was happy in a hotel?
Hotels have been invented, a lovely place for people to stay without imposing on others. Easy transfer to/from the airport.
I just made the mistake of googling Meghan’s feet - it’s a whole new world. Apparently she’s got Morton’s toe, which I’d never heard of before, but is where your second toe is longer than your big toe - and up to 20% of the population have it. who knew?
Venus Clearly she didn't get an A for Maths!

Lots of people who think they are 100% white have some black ancestry.
Who was the 50% white in her mother's case? Both parents were black.
She lied - not unknown - until her black ancestry was a marketable commodity.

How do you know there haven't been video calls?
Apparently the king had time to meet David Beckham, I think it’s disgusting he couldn’t find time to see his son.
This post has been removed as it was felt to be inflammatory.
I suspect Harry is looking more relaxed because Meghan is pleased she is the star and being treated as is her due, therefore his life is easier.
They must be worried about where the next million is coming from as neither has the talent to fund the lifestyle to which they consider themselves entitled and there is a limit as to how far they can exploit their royal connections in America.
Yes. Hard life isn’t it?
Well, it is when you pay £3,000 for a dress that looks like a sarong. (Unless of course, it is a freebie, which she wasn't allowed in Britain,)
What goes around comes around !
You reap what you sow in this life. Best thing Harry could do is dump the whinging American and come back home

He looks pretty happy here. And haven't his clothes got more relaxed?
Well, at least he’s got a replacement necklace.
Speaking as someone with ugly feet myself, I must defend Meghan’s actually.
Hers look ok to me, wish mine were as good.
