Just been reading about H&M’s forthcoming proposed visit to the UK with their children, pertaining to the Invictus Games which are due to take place next year.

Apparently, it’s a private visit, and accommodation has been offered to them on a ‘Royal estate’, but no mention of where or if it’s been accepted.

Security issues not revealed, plus whether or not it involves meeting up with the King.

We shall wait and see how it all evolves.

If they just quietly visited privately there would be no problem.

I don't think it is possible for them to do that, especially on this occasion when there is a high profile Invictus Games occasion at which he is speaking.

Harry knows from his experiences from birth that doing anything quietly and privately gets scuppered by the media scramble.

Well, they managed to avoid being papped this time!
Shows it can be done.

But not reliably. When you read the venom expressed against them I would want to play safe if it were my precious children.

Actually I think that last sentence is one f those sweeping statements- along the lines “well documented that the Spare has a hard time’ - that doesn’t bear factual research.

Most of the media coverage of his childhood and early teenage years was “official”, with the media respecting a long held agreement that children were not their targets but that they would be provided with plentiful official opportunities.

Schools, organisations and friends were discreet.

As is evidenced with Williams children today.

The ‘he’s always had a hard time” doesn’t actually stand up to scrutiny for those who are interested in facts.
