Prince Harry will not meet the King during UK visit.

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?

Poor delicate Charles and his strong support the saintly Camilla I’m sure they are far too too busy to see the wayward son who tells it as he sees it. What a bunch of white rabbits:
“I'm late, I'm late, for a very important date! No time to say "Hello, Good Bye" I'm late, I'm late, I'm late!

Funny no one wants to say they wouldn't like their husband parading in an ex's jewellery.
According to his valet Charles rang Camilla most days during the honeymoon.

Oh dear. What a sorry tale.
And Harry has made exactly the same mistake as his father, marrying a girl woman he scarcely knew, with a very different agenda for the marriage and a cash register for eyes, but being exactly what he wanted until the ring was on her finger.
Easy to see where the propensity for lying comes from, and it may have a chance as a happy marriage because they both love her so much.
As long as he can provide more jaunts like Nigeria.

I suppose as he is not husband to anyone here (is he?) and we hear only conjecture and tell a tale - well nobody here is bound to care.

I'll start: I married at 16, was a virgin as was he (or so he says, not a worry). We had no other persons jewellery, just our tiny wedding bands. I'm OK.

Glorianny, what is your answer to your question?

Casdon Sun 12-May-24 18:49:13

For somebody who purports to hate royalty Glorianny you seem to read an awful lot of media about them, and ‘know’ the intimate details of their lives. I don’t understand why.

Anniebach Sun 12-May-24 18:56:12

They honeymooned on the royal yatch !

‘According to his valet’. Oh dear Glorianny, your interest in tittle tattle about the RF is astonishing given your claimed dislike of them. Why do you bother to read this stuff?

It’s pretty darn sad that this thread has over 500 comments . Mostly hate and virtue signaling 🤮

Ladyleftfieldlover Sun 12-May-24 19:42:26

Fallen down that Rabbit hole and eaten the biscuit too!

Iam64 Sun 12-May-24 19:46:11

Agree Syracute - I’m always stunned by the hatred expressed on any h and m discussions. I continue to feel the relationship difficulties in the RF hurt everyone directly involved. We aren’t directly involved. Many of us will have our own experiences of estrangement. Every estrangement is different, painful, distressing and life changing
People are often quick to judge and criticise those involved. Awful isn’t it

Anniebach Sun 12-May-24 20:15:16

You Iam are judging posters , please stop accusing posters of
hatred

I live in hope one day of reading a thread on GN about Harry and MegHan, and seeing someone say, “Oh, you know, I hadn’t thought of it that way - you may be right”. Ha!

still appealed to you though didn't it!

Grannynannywanny Sun 12-May-24 21:20:42

I noticed this thread a couple of days ago and dipped back in today to see if it had run out of steam. I naively thought there surely can’t be anything else left to criticise about a woman we don’t know. I was wrong. Even her toes are fair game. Honestly, it baffles me 🤷‍♀️

Syracute Sun 12-May-24 21:23:17

I read only a bit of the thread because it is always the same posters with the same ugliness , shameful comments. I do on occasion speak up as otherwise it is just the usual bashing inspired by Daily Mail reports . It takes usually 5 minutes for a critical DM article to be posted until the usual H and M vultures come out to start their flesh eating, bone picking comments !

Anniebach Sun 12-May-24 21:25:01

And you are no vulture Syracute ?

Germanshepherdsmum Sun 12-May-24 21:27:57

‘I only read a bit of the thread’. Why bother reading any of it, let alone posting on it, if you find these threads so distasteful?

Anniebach Sun 12-May-24 21:34:35

They choose to sweep like vultures

Me, February,
Actually I've always said there are positive things about Meghan I quite like.
Any good for you, or shall I find more?

Anniebach Sun 12-May-24 22:01:35

Something nice ? right , addressing Nigerian women, I
am Nigerian, like you I am strong, intelligent, beautiful , brave

You obviously haven't read it all.
