Just some random thoughts I have about this whole thing. Sorry if this turns out really long!
1. Harry wants his kids to have a normal life, away from press intrusion. The best way to do that is surely for them to grow up with the whole world knowing how their dad lost his virginity and that he has a frostbitten penis?
2. Harry will never reconcile with William after this. It's too much, too bad. The passages about how William looks old and ugly with his receding hairline and 'has lost his resemblance to our mother' is just beyond cruel. I don't think William would ever get over the hurt of that.
3. It's CLASSIC narcissistic abuse to move a partner away to a new area and isolate them from their family and friends. I've seen it so many times sadly. I've even had close friends who got into relationships with horrible people, and they went from being kind people into being angry and unhinged and driving their friends away. The narc partner does it by telling them that they are so special and no one appreciates them and their family are awful to them and they deserve better, none of these people are good enough for you, they're all so mean to you! It's heartbreaking and I feel so sorry for the friends and family that have had to witness this happening to Harry.
4. My God, he ain't bright! Absolutely nothing about this has shown him in a good light. How can he possibly have thought this would work out in his favour? He must get it from his Uncle Andrew!
5. He describes how he didn't feel anything as he killed 25 people, but he was so terribly hurt when his brother pushed him. The man's not on planet Earth! How could he possibly think this would endear him to the public? It makes him seem like a psychopath!
6. I don't know if it's different in America because they have more history with that 'one drop' way of thinking, but in the UK, Meg's race just was not a big deal. She was the only one talking about it, and I'm fuming that she's gone crying to America that British people are racist. Fuck's sake, we gave her a £32MILLION public wedding which was broadcast on tv! How is that not welcoming her with open arms? And I'm sorry if this is in any way offensive, but I never even knew she was mixed race until she spoke about it. She looks very 'white-passing' to me. I don't believe she experienced racism here, because I don't think British people would read her as black. The worst thing I ever saw the press say about her was one idiot said she had 'spicy' blood. That's shitty, but it's hardly the nationwide prejudice she is saying. She thinks she's painting herself as the brave victim, but she's doing something much much worse: she's ruining the reputation of a country, with lies.
7. I think you can see something feminine in the stories, as if they are fabricated or embellished by a woman (no prizes for guessing which woman). The significance over the wedding ring and tiara - do men really care about their mother's jewellery that much, or is that more something that's important to women? The story where William shoves Harry and Harry comes crashing to the ground - do we really think two brothers in their 30s who had both served in the military would consider this a shocking level of violence? Do we really think Harry would fall to the ground from being shoved? Or is that from the mind of someone who has never been in a physical fight, and imagines it from her own point of view where William is a big overpowering man, and not from Harry's point of view, where he's a relatively equal match?
