bloody whinging royals

Me too Oldwoman. No-one knows what is going on with someone's mental health apart from that person. That is why so many people choose suicide instead of speaking out. PND is a serious illness and life threatening if you develop psychosis and is not restricted to those who are on a low income etc. Also prolonged grief can develop into a serious mental illness and I wish more people would speak out about these things - or maybe not given the attitudes of some here as some of these comments would drive me to harm myself if they were directed at me.
And I do not believe we should have a Royal Family so this is not colouring my views!

Actually I am fed up with them. I'm not going to whine on about my sad childhood , but it was pretty bad. The point I would make is that they are both privileged; they have wealth beyond what most of us could imagine; they want for nothing materially; they can go on holiday to places I can only dream about; they don't live the sort of life where every day is a struggle to put food on the table, pay the rent or other bills. Their child/ren will never know want. If they are feeling unwell then they can access the best medical care immediately.
Money doesn't ease grief but it means that a person can grieve without having to worry about material problems. I can assure you that I know all about grieving and being really poor .

Instead of preaching to us plebs , which is what we have had up to now , please try to understand what life is like for those of us without huge wealth. And if she needs to have treatment for post natal depression then please get some.

Will they be paying for their own house renovations and security in future?

According to the Express, they may be pulling out of the Royal circle to lead ordinary lives.

True Bridgeit we never get over the loss of a loved one’, but
If we wish we can talk to friends or family or a bereavement counsellor, but to the world after a visit to Africa where there is much suffering ?

There was a thread here a while back where people were outraged at the suggestion that money eases grief, or at least makes aspects of it easier to cope with.

The problem is they refused to take any advice in the early days. 'What Meghan wants, Meghan gets' has not stood them in good stead. They got through a lot of staff, behaved in a childish way over Archie's birth and snubbed the British public who finance their lavish lifestyle by allowing a glimpse of the top of their baby's head and a sneak peek at his feet. They were happy to introduce him to Desmond Tutu though in full glare of the cameras. Waving two fingers couldn't have made their point clearer.

Just as they seemed to be getting it right again they decided to sue the press instead of basking in the success of their South African tour.

They were riding on a wave of popularity and they blew it!

Thankyou Grannygravy13

Bridgeit very well put ?

Thanks merlot. Will look out for it.

Perhaps they are trying to say that , no matter what advantages some have in life it doesn’t alter the emotional effect of the loss of a loved one .
Of course they don’t have to worry about finances etc. However Financial security in excess will not ease emotional damage.
We never get over a loss , but we learn to cope & carry on ,But
every once in awhile when least expected it will come back & bite us in the bum ! That is when we witness what it is to be a a caring , feeling human being & see that for that split second in time there is no comfort to obliterate the original pain of loss.

This issue was headline news on the 6.30pm evening news on ITV. I just couldn’t believe it especially as there’s so much going on in the UK at the moment and it was basically an advert for one of their own programmes on Sunday. Megan said (I can’t remember the exact words) that not many people ask how she is. What about all of her friends who attended the wedding and baby shower? Have they suddenly left her high and dry? I don’t think either of them are coping well and probably finding all this a bit too stressful.

It's on tomorrow night, Gonegirl

Plenty of clips being shown though.

Has this ITV documentary been shown yet?

paddyann didn’t critcise the Monarchy, she spoke of two members of the royal family .

I am somewhat bemused by the outpouring of dislike (almost hate) for this couple, who I think it is safe to assume nobody on GN has ever met.

Is it because everyone thought of the young Harry as "our prince" - a bit of a lovable rascal and would have disapproved of anyone who took that away?

Perhaps it is because she wasn't the conventional "virgin from the upper classes"

I have read and heard people saying that it is only a matter of time before she leaves. IF that does happen many people will be giving themselves a self satisfied pat on the back and saying "told you so", but how many will stop to think that the reason could be because of the constant attacks, both in the press and on sites such as this, became too much and drove her away.

How can you 'dislike' a person you do not know personally ?The media on learning of her relationship delved into her life and the rest followed. Alleged by the media she fed Harry with the tale of 'no family' and it became apparent he had lapped it up like a starving cat given a saucer of milk and broadcast this to the world . She rejected her family for no other reason in my view than they became superfluous to her requirements having preference for the jet set who could pave the way to the kind of life she wanted.What family wouldn't retaliate and there cannot be many who will say all she had to do was put what ever the water back under the bridge and bring them back into her life. I do not believe Harry being the compassionate man he is would have said no. You reap what you sow.

Two wrongs don’t make a right .

But if people keep getting at you and yours, wouldn't you want to reply?

Royal duties do not involve telling the world how difficult one’s life is.

?

I don’t understand why Paddyann started this thread, she has already told us I another thread that she & her husband make money from selling photographs that they take of the RF.
Hypocrisy it seems goes across the board !

Is it heck.

I agree GrannyGravy. They have to do their royal work. And it is work.
