Harry’s over for a Court case but not to see his Papa. 🤔

Charles & Camilla flew out to Rome on a planned visit so they missed one another by mere hours. Harry obviously didn’t want to spend any time with them. He will have known of their itinerary. There are so few occasions when he does fly over now from Montecito. An opportunity lost, especially with his father’s health I think.

I don't like this guy much, (F1 driver 🇳🇱), but this weekend a lovely photo of a baby the right way up with its little face peeping outwards.
Digressing! As you were.

Excellent choice 👏

Look at the sudden sharing of Lilli’s ‘cute’ American accent.

That was a real child???
It sounded pure ‘Disney’ to me. 😂

Hope they shut up on VE Day this week, King,Queen, Prince
and Princess of Wales taking large part in celebrations and appearing on the Balcony

Maybe there’s another jam in the pipeline…rhubarb possibly!

Why on earth does she (Meghan) think anyone is interested in looking at pictures of the backs of the childrens heads?

Beatrice and Eugenie do the same. It’s meant to imply they value the children’s privacy so why post any photos at all?
It’s an arrogant and passive aggressive gesture.

Some might say it’s done for security reasons but dangling the bait is just plain daft.

I imagined it was a kind of ‘drip feeding’, to release another wee snippet when they ( well, she) felt ignored. Look at the sudden sharing of Lilli’s ‘cute’ American accent.

Maybe Annie but the children have never had a choice have they and are so often the innocent victims of estrangement sad.

Anniebach Sun 04-May-25 13:31:39

Could the photograph be Megan saying ‘ they are walking away
from you, ‘

Or should that be the King's English these days? 😆

I think FriedGreenTomatoes was speaking to Harry clearly in the only language he might understand!
Well he hardly seems to get anyone speaking to him in the Queen's English, does he? 😆

I think Harry’s had too much counselling. Too much inward introspection and navel gazing. It’s not doing him any good is it? He needs a job/role as much as anything. He seems pretty rudderless. He’d be better if he was energised in something that interested him (apart from his own situation). Get on with life and living Harry! You have so much to be grateful for. An attractive wife, two gorgeous healthy children, a beautiful home in Montecito, money .. stop frittering these blessings as if they were second best. Enjoy what you have chosen. And shut the f**k up.

My feeling about Meghan's pictures of the back of her children's heads is that Meghan does not want any competition from cute little children, even her own. (bitchy, I know.)

TerriBull Sun 04-May-25 12:57:09

Bits of children/baby body parts, backs of heads, new born baby hand, foot, nauseatingly d list c'leb.

Oh, of course, it’s meant to deflect the fallout from Harry’s latest whinge. Showing us the family that the King is not bothered about.

All their own silly fault.

TerriBull Sun 04-May-25 12:37:57

TerriBull Sun 04-May-25 12:36:51

I suppose the nub of Harry's grievance, is if he used his own security, in this country, they wouldn't be allowed to use fire arms rendering him more vulnerable. As to that vulnerability, he made it so much worse, by the army revelations regarding the killing of Taliban men. He lacks any sort of filters as this latest interview suggests. Also puzzling he mooted that he wished he'd been advised of the fact losing this latest court outcome was a possibility. Oh come on Harry of course you'd have been told that would be a possibility by your legal team, but where have we heard that before, time and time again he and Meghan receive advice but go there own way anyway. Talking of Meghan she's just issued one of her numerous"here's another picture of the back of my children's heads" I thought they wanted their children to have a private childhood.

nanna8 Sun 04-May-25 12:31:49

I think he is mentally ill but so obsessed with himself that he won’t or can’t take any advice whatsoever. He has lovely children and should stay with them in the lap of luxury where he lives and just live his life quietly.

^However, Harry is a high profile son of our King and his tour in Afghanistan makes him quite a target and we as a nation should be protecting him as a result.^

Harry is only a target because he bragged in his book about "killing 25 taliban like chess pieces taken off the board" whilst serving in Afghanistan. Not only did he put a target on his own back, he put a target on all the soldiers who served with him. A commanding 9fficer sa8d at the time; "That's not how you behave in the Army; it's not how we think."He has badly let the side down. We don't do notches on the rifle butt. We never did."

None of the other serving officers ever felt the need to broadcast what had happened in the line of battle; only him. He let them down, he let the armed forces down and he let the country down. If he's feeling vulnerable now, it's because he couldn't keep his mouth shut.

I don’t agree with everything you have said but I couldn’t believe Harry had stated in his book how many men he’d killed! I believe he said he was neither proud or ashamed of this. I get that he would have been a target anyway having served in Afghanistan but this just made it so much worse. My husband is ex armed forces he was astounded.

Carlotta Sun 04-May-25 12:08:36

I would say he was the highest risk to the royal family.

Definitely. His hubris has put him, and his ex comrades, at huge security risk. He's gone from hero to zero in 5 short years.

lemsip Sun 04-May-25 12:05:04

Harry is driven by her at home!

Fortunately our King is guided by and advised by those that look after him.

The King will not respond.

eazybee Sun 04-May-25 11:45:43

I don't know if being delusional qualifies as mental illness, but sad to say, Anniebach, I feel he is on the brink. He has nothing else to distract him from his obsession.
