But her acting is very one trip poney though merlotgran.

Oh;my gosh, they've pinched my very words about Meghan a few days ago here!

Do you know what, I've always called it a one trip pony and just discovered it is actually one trick! Silly, silly me!

Oh my gosh, and pony isn't spelt like poney! Or did I mean phoney,!

I and DH have now watched all six episodes.

As I see it the blame should be laid at the door of The Daily Mail along with all the so called journalists who collectively decided that they required a pantomime villain(s) amongst Queen Elizabeth II’s grandchildren.

Prince Harry it appears has not coped with the loss of his mother as well as Prince William, we all grieve differently, they had their grief documented by the worlds media. Harry did have his wild moments, and boy was the press eager to publish all the gory details of a troubled boy trying to make sense of his life and fit into a the life that was mapped out for him.

I saw a modern couple, very much in love who were frustrated by The Firm’s attitude of never explain , which along with the turn of attitude by the gutter press pitted the two brothers against each other.

I truly hope that Prince Harry has found his Princess and they live happily ever after, an added bonus would be for the family to heal the rifts in the fullness of time.

I have always been a royalist, I hope that the King and his heir slim down The Firm to something more fitting for the 21st C. I would be extremely uncomfortable with the possibility of this scenario being repeated with the next generation of young royals.

The Hollywood bible Variety aren’t very impressed 😱

she must have been gutted when he couldn''t wear those impressive military uniforms any more.

imaround- apologies from me for skimming so missing your ‘fool’ post.

we all saw Harry miserable lonely and turning to substances like many other miserable lonely boys. He’s always talked about his mothers treatment by the press, his feelings about that walk behind her coffin. It’s the age old Adam n Eve story, led astray by a conniving woman. Age old nonsense

imaround is that you Meghan?

People having a different view to you doesn’t make them a fool.

You are right. I apologize for using the word fool in my post.

^Harry himself covered this is the documentary^

And you believe all he says because?

Well, interviews going back to his teens saying he was unhappy, long before Meghan.

So why wouldn't I believe him?

Where did imaround suggest those who disagree with her are fools?
Also- no I truly don’t believe Meghan is masquerading as I around on gransnet

I see this question asked a lot on MN as well. It is so strange to me. Literally something we would have asked in middle school.

Imagine, though, being so important as to think that every other person on the face of the planet has the same opinion as you so the only person that it could be posting in support is Meghan herself.

Thanks Callistemon

I'm assuming that maybe H & M made too many demands to make a solution viable.
Like royal titles, properties, security, hard cash for an opulent lifestyle etc. etc.

I agree Callistemon that that would have been a more palatable way of doing things, and I think the British people, and indeed the world, would have accepted their reasons, and that interest in them would have petered out.

A dignified exit.

Instead it has turned into an unedifying spectacle of innuendo and speculation.

So if we acknowledge that Harry & Meghan weren't coping and were deeply unhappy, what better solution could have been found to cause them less grief? What I am trying to discover is whether a mutually acceptable conclusion could have been arrived at without all the animosity and resentment we are now witnessing? What compromises could have been made?

Harry wanted out for a long time before he met Meghan. Anyone blaming Meghan for him leaving is a fool.

Yes, he did.

I think Meghan provided a perfect escape route but I do think he could have announced that he would not be continuing as a working Royal and that they would be going to live quietly in America, when they got engaged or during the engagement.

They could have had a lovely, quiet private family wedding at their own expense, like his cousins, not the huge occasion it was, funded by the taxpayer.
Frogmore would not have had to be refurbished at such great expense (the taxpayer was refunded, I believe).
They would not have to undertake Royal tours, taken on huge projects such as the Commonwealth Canopy etc.

The huge publicity they received and the consequent drama of their departure caused a media frenzy so no wonder the press were camped at the door of their new home.

None of that need have happened if they'd said au revoir as soon as they married.

Televised on Christmas Eve !

Sadly, I don't believe anything Harry says anymore. He has lost touch with real life as he knew it, which was a strange world but one he was familiar with, and he has failed to replace it with a stable life where he feels comfortable.

So despite Harry saying himself that he is happy and has a stable life you don't believe it because..... ?

Harry and William always had my sympathy, losing a loving mother early in life and having it all played out in public.
The right woman could have made all the difference to him, staying in the RF and having a family here and doing all the stuff he liked such as Invictus games.He would have been popular too.
Meghan has brought out the very worst for him.☹️

This fails to take into account that Harry was unhappy in the RF for years and spoke out against it saying things like "no one would want to do this" .

Harry wanted out for a long time before he met Meghan. Anyone blaming Meghan for him leaving is a fool.

Anyone thinking he should have stayed in the RF at the cost of his continued mental health is a fool.

Harry himself covered this is the documentary.

Some good points Glorianny but it is a non-sequitur to state that because someone's family made money from slavery 250+ years ago, ergo they are racist still now.

The RF had withdrawn their protection, perhaps they hoped they would be scared enough to return to the UK.
You are surmising and the facts disprove that.

Protection is only given to working royals and some working royals only receive protection when they are actually carrying out duties.

^Their lies and accusations are very damaging and vindictive, and I just wish they would either shut up or produce some evidence for all these claims^

I haven't watched the series, and I won't, but I understand she criticised the Canadian police accusing them of not protecting her when she was living in Toronto when the news broke that she was seeing Harry.

The Canadian police have come out and denied this, saying it's not true and that they did give her protection and security.

Yet another unproven claim by Meghan .....

Yes, there was an interesting comment ftom the Chief, (sorry I don't have time to find his name and title), that he didn't actually need to watch the series to know that Meghan was lying about the lax attitude of his police staff. Something along the lines that she was never in actual danger and that he had full confidence in the work of his team. It's back to what I meant about there are always people who are never going to be happy.

Glorianny 👏👏👏👏. Thanks for your posts on H and M.

I agree. You watched the docuseries, you make a valid contribution. You give food for thought.
