PH - Not another one!

On the front of today’s DT

THE Duke of Sussex has accused the Royal family of “total neglect” and of “bullying him into silence” as he revealed the Prince of Wales had told him that as he had suffered, his sons would suffer too
Prince Harry, 36, underwent a highly personal therapy session on camera for his new Apple TV documentary series, discussing traumatic memories from his childhood.

A “highly personal therapy session on camera” - that beggars belief.
Isn’t the point of therapy that it is personal, private and confidential? And this from somebody who wanted to keep his private life, well, private?

What next? Spare us the ins and outs of their private lives on camera - please.

I assume the PH in the title stands for Poor Harry?

That is obviously how he sees himself all the time now, instead of concentrating on all the privileges life offers him.

Should be SB- Silly Boy.

Oh- I thought it meant Pig Headed.

Or Publicity Hunter.

Please stop this Harry.
You should be there supporting your brother in the BBC scandal regarding your mother, not chuntering on about yourself again in public. William never makes it all about him despite suffering equally. The difference between the brothers is even more evident now, like between the Queen and Princess Margaret.

MawBe and others reducing him to the initials PH is about right.

He is not going to stop. The soap opera will continue as it has for what seems like forever. Perhaps we should stop putting people into this situation. Just a thought.

You are Brenda from Bristol and I claim my £5.

I hadn't realised that all this stupidity has been running for a comparatively short while, barely 6 months? It does seem like forever, (and I guess the media is perpetuating it), surely there has to be a denouement soon.

Galaxy Fri 21-May-21 08:09:26

No its been running for all my life affairs, panorama, virgin brides, death, on and on.

Sorry Galaxy, I thought you meant just the PH bit. I guess it is all so much more in our faces now.
I'm cross with myself for even discussing it while I am here on holiday, so I'm off now to get some freshly caught fish for this evening.

His connections with royalty are all he has to trade on, all the media are interested in. Wait for the book with 'never seen before photographs'. No end in sight as he has to reveal more and more lurid revelations to get a smidgen of interest.

Galaxy Fri 21-May-21 08:46:43

That sounds so lovely Ellianne, have a good day.

TerriBull Fri 21-May-21 08:47:26

There is such a thing as over exposure and the disconnect between the "desire" for a quiet life away from the public eye has gone right out of the umpteen windows of the Montecito home. There will come a time when even the most sympathetic are going to think, how much more of this navel gazing do we have to listen to.?hmm PH has nothing else to offer though it seems. Given that there are over half a million people living on the streets just down the coast in greater Los Angeles, Venice Beach being a prime example. Daily outpourings from a disgruntled British Prince moaning about his family, all the while ensconced in a beautiful enclave far removed from the harsh realities of some peoples everyday life. Continually displaying to the world his palatial paradise during the umpteen broadcasts is eventually going to reach saturation point. I can imagine a time when they will be as sick of him across the pond as many people here are.

Just as an aside, you are allowed to discuss your therapy to people outside of a therapy room. There is no reason why you shouldn't, in fact you may be encouraged to.

Elegran Fri 21-May-21 09:00:51

How chuffed their PR adviser must be - high profile clients with sky-high backgrounds, who are ready to do anything he suggests if it keeps them in the limelight.

I take your point JaneJudge, but broadcast it live on Netflix?

What next?
His prostate check?

Exactly so.

He was happy in the army, just one of the men . mmmmm

I don’t recall the other men having their packs carried during
training, and don’t recall them all staying at a country estate at weekends or having personal guards when in Afghanistan.

EllanVannin Fri 21-May-21 09:22:43

What do you expect ? He married an actor ! It will go on.

Smileless2012 Fri 21-May-21 09:38:05

MawBe grin it's all toe curling isn't itangry.

Oopsadaisy1 Fri 21-May-21 09:38:11

The sad thing is that all these interviewers are doing it to further their careers, not to help him, if he wasn’t who he is they would just walk away and not. Give him the time of day.
I find it very sad.
The press will never stop reporting it and the interviewers will be queueing up until something happens hopefully nothing like what happened to his Mother.

Iam64 Fri 21-May-21 09:46:41

Ah, I see that by talking about his life and feelings, Harry is feeding the hatefest.

MawBe Fri 21-May-21 09:49:20

And just as Martin Bashir “found fame” with his dodgy Diana interview- do they never learn?
Am I also being über cynical to question the timing of this revelation?
There seems to be the beginning of a trend of matching every RF announcement with one from the Sussexes. hmm

Anniebach Fri 21-May-21 09:50:10

Criticism of Harry is hate, criticism of William is justified
