Harry & Meghan won't return to royal family

[Sir Wearer of Hats]

I think most of Meghan’s fractuous relationship with the Old Firm and it’s hangers on retainers versus Kate’s seeming lack of it flows from the fact Kate was groomed for and prepared for the role of Queen in Waiting for years by the Palace whereas “whirlwind romance” Meghan and Harry meant she wasn’t fully prepared for how nasty and hard work it is to be a Royal. 
Charlie boy? William? Harry? All born to the purple. Kate? “NQOC, but we do need new blood.” and they’d learnt their lessons from Diana and Sarah on how to integrate people into the firm who aren’t already directly related to the family.

I agree with this. Australia and even Canada are members of the British Commonwealth and have a relationship with the British Royal family. The United States on the other hand, has a lot of Disney princesses and Harry isn't a Disney movie prince. He came with very real royal protocols and obligations. In her interview she compared herself to Ariel in The Little Mermaid. That's not reality. Their romance was very fast paced and life isn't a fairy tale. You don't just kiss, get married and live happily ever after. You have real work and obligations. I don't think Harry did a lot to help her as she didn't even know she had to curtsy when she met the Queen at Prince Andrew's house until he told her in the car on the way there. Protocol isn't for public display. It's real 24/7. William did take a lot of time to prepare Kate for what was ahead of her. Harry and Meghan rushed into marriage. She wasn't ready for royal life. Her expectations were unrealistic.

I hope I said this right.

It's a soap opera.  Fans love it, most folk couldn't care less one way or t'other.

This is the same royal family that treated Diana, Princess of Wales like dog's dirt.

Well, from my point of view, anyone who plays the race card to attain victim Hood without any proof to back up the claim deserves to be viewed with suspicion, especially when that person is whiter than I am. She raised the spectre of racism some time ago with regard to the tabloids yet I seem to remember that the whole country including the tabloids (and me) were cheering the pair of them on the day and were wishing them nothing but happiness. This really started to go south when these two most privileged of people started to lecture the masses about their carbon footprints whilst they were quite happy to ignore their own.  The only hint of racism I can remember was when that idiot Danny Baker posted something on twitter and the tabloids jumped to her defence..... not seen or heard of him since. 

If somebody could post a link to anything racist that the tabloids printed at the time I'd be intrigued to see it. But to be clear, just being critical of her does not equate to being racist toward her. 

And I tend to think that in most respects Harry's behavior in all this has been worse. He has thrown his family including his brother under the bus for this woman, and I think he'll come to regret it when the divorce happens further down the road.

Centuries old Native American human remains are found buried on estate just yards from Meghan and Harry's $14.7million mansion in Montecito

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-9642249/Very-old-human-remains-just-yards-away-Meghan-Harrys-California-mansion.html

All I can think is how dare they!  215 children's remains are found.  A nation is reeling over the horror and they are trying to gain headlines.  If I didn't think they were horrible people before, this would do it

It really is anything to stay relevant. And whatever will they do?

I don't see any links to a US news source yet. I'll keep looking.

Isn't there supposedly going to be a "Oprah plus Harry" talk show in the works? I'll be curious what he has to say without Meghan there to feed him lines. Maybe she'll be coaching from the wings?

Yes. The Me You Can't See. Prince Charles is furious and Harry lied to his grandmother, who approved this because he told her it was going to be about soldiers. That's what I've heard about this because I haven't listened to any of it.

People are demanding Harry give up all his titles. I think the Queen will let this go, but I don't think Charles will when he steps up. For people crying about publicity and the press, I've never seen anyone so desperate to keep chasing it. Really just give it a rest now.

There's a few US reports about the remains found. This is from Page Six of the New York Post. The remains are thought to be about 11,000 years old.

The police have been called to their residence 9 times in 9 months. The neighbors there will get tired of that fast.

I think they were reporting intruders on the property. I know they caught one. That's in one of the articles.

Here's what's being reported. Maybe some paranoia going on? Squirrels or any animal can activate motion detector alarms.

Yes, the lack of self awareness is truly astounding. They plead for the media to stop 'hounding' them & respect their privacy whilst lining up a deal to be interviewed by Oprah & throw Harrys family under a bus. Then preach to the world about their carbon footprint whilst flying around in Eltons private jet.  :-https://www.thesun.co.uk/fabulous/9751518/meghan-markle-archie-harrison-private-jet-elton-john-france-prince-harry/

The weird thing is that where they are now, they are far from the richest kids on the block. Oprah and Ellen DeGeneres are both neighbors.
