Harry: "I want my Father back. I want my brother back"

Poor man, he does need help.

he's just doing what you all wanted earning his own living (and wsupporting charities- but I suppose that's wrong as well)

Yes, jolly good, so are most of our DC I expect.
Well done

But not trashing their families in the process then crying crocodile tears in public because their loved ones have withdrawn in their hurt and confusion.

Well it's number 20 on The Amazon Best sellers list and it isn't even released yet. Sorry all you sour individuals, doubt if it will be the failure you hope. Can't understand why you would condemn it anyway he's just doing what you all wanted earning his own living (and supporting charities- but I suppose that's wrong as well)

All this dirty washing in public! When did it ever do anyone any good?

It reminds of the old story of the boy who shoots both his parents and pleads for mercy from the judge - ‘Have pity on me, I’m a poor orphan.’

Isn’t that said to be the definition of chutzpah ?

I do hope no GNers are going to buy his wretched book. I saw it marked down to £14 in Smiths today - 🤞they’ll be desperately marking it down to a fiver soon - but I dare say I’ll be disappointed

Would it burn nicely to help heat our living rooms?
Perhaps if it is reduced further they’ll pay us to take a copy - a bit like the WFP!

Just watched the interview .....hmmmmm.

Bolivian flu????

Dilated pupils, constant sniffing, signs of paranoia, incoherent rambling.

Do you know, for the first time I was wondering the same?
Now there’s a thought to conjure with.

If I had been trashed all over the press, in often racially loaded ways and my own father and brother stood back and said nothing...

I'd be wanting my father and brother back too, in the roles they should have inhabited from the beginning.

This is what happens when you have a an image motivated family invested in rug sweeping and you try to tell the truth because your childhood and your own family have harmed you.

Only in this case, it has played out in the public eye and quite a lot of the public are just as invested in the image of the royal family as the royal family themselves..

Then an apology for slagging them off so publicly might not come amiss. Not to mention presumably giving an awful lot of grief to the Queen - Charles’ mother - when she was very old and increasingly frail, and grieving for Prince Philip.

I do hope no GNers are going to buy his wretched book. I saw it marked down to £14 in Smiths today - 🤞they’ll be desperately marking it down to a fiver soon - but I dare say I’ll be disappointed.

From what I've read about them lovebeigecardigans they said very little and accepted the consequences of their actions. Something Harry needs to learn.

Both The Duke and Duchess wrote their own life story, published in the early 1950s
A King's Story-him
and
The Heart Has its Reasons-her
There is an excellent novel by Wendy Holden called "The Duchess" which questions many of the stories circulated by the British press about Wallis Simpson, who was condemned as a dominatrix who ruled Edward through the sexual practices she had learned in Singapore (another woman who pinched a prince!!!)

Poor little rich boy…realises that if he’s not royalty he’s nothing. Always looks so miserable nowadays…..

Anniebach says it all. He doesn't have anything else to sell.

Harry isn't the sharpest knife in the drawer.

He betrays his family, insults the British People and then wonders why he isn't welcomed back with open arms.

He may not be a Nazi sympathiser/collaborator like Edward VIII but there are many who view him as a traitor.

He will have to work very hard to win back trust. I do feel a certain sympathy for him.....but the truth is his wounds are self inflicted.

He seems to be unaware of the classic advice: If you find your self in hole of your own making, stop digging.

He needs them, what can he write or talk about after his book is published,

Wah! Wah! He has his 30 pieces of silver and shows no regrets.

Harry is being ignored by his father and brother which must be hurting him now. He has caused many of the problems by airing them for the whole world to see.
I think he must be feeling lonely now.

It might be nice if a thread could start off with a little accuracy. Harry's words are "I would like to have my father back." "I would like to get my brother back."
No sense of demanding.
Of course that doesn't fit the antagonistic attitudes that some have towards him.

It reminds of the old story of the boy who shoots both his parents and pleads for mercy from the judge - ‘Have pity on me, I’m a poor orphan.’

Och, they were Nazis but you have to take the rough with the smooth. At least they didn't talk about it 🤣

A change of heart and a change of perspective Onward.

I honestly don't know what he expects his father and brother to do. Are they really ever likely to have a private heart to heart with him when in all likelihood, it will be plastered all over the media?

Indeed, Onward if you insult your family in public you can hardly complain that you want them back, can you? He is the sad victim of his own actions.

I'm a bit too young to recall, but did the late Duke and Duchess of Windsor have so much to say about their lives, decisions and actions?
