Harry & Meghan #51 The Fresh Prince of Hot Air: from Royal stock to laughing stock

[Baguette]

They could very well be trying to pave the way to come back to the UK.
If they were too I think Harry would be forgiven in time because he was popular but never Markle.
She has absolutely done nothing to inbrace the British public.
A divorce will happen....eventually.

They are 100% out as Senior Royals and everything the RF does in 2021 will draw a hard line between the Senior 8 and 'the rest' including Harkles, Andrew, Beatrice and Eugenie.

But... I also think there's a plan for Harry, and Harry only, to come back to UK when this marriage burns to the ground, which is sooner not later. He won't be 'Hero Harry', won't be a Senior Royal, won't have any influence but will have some private office support (via Bank of Charles) to do some useful, low-key stuff and prevent him being a nuisance in nightclubs (and worse).

I was REALLY hoping that the monarchy would cut the pair loose and leave them to fend for themselves, but I just think Meghan has proven to be such a loose cannon and could easily blow the lid off a lot of things, that they will accept them back into the fold for self-preservation purposes. She isn't the sort of person who would behave in the way Cressida or Chelsy did following their break-up with Harry. She's a totally different breed. She would gladly spill the beans and it would take a shedload of money to shut her up. The monarchy is a closed unit and they would rather have her where they can see her and keep her in line, within the family circle, no matter how she has behaved in the past.

The best I can hope for, if they do step back into the royal domain, is that the public fully show their 'appreciation' at any engagement they might attend.

Was thinking the same, and that we tattlers will have our boo/hiss megaphone fully powered up.



Still would mark the end of the monarchy though... chuck won't help matters, whimpering in chinless awe in the presence of her smegness and Harry's tantrums/threats. Will wouldn't see the throne and Hazzard will have succeeded.

Unfortunately I think many of the public are gullible when it comes to Harry even if they don't approve of Meghan. A lot will just think he has been mislead by his wife. Of course we on this thread know differently but I do think many would forgive him if he came back because they still remember the 'good old Harry one of the lads' PR.
If he came back without her looking like he's having a breakdown he'll probably be really popular again

I still very much doubt that Meghan will ever come back to the UK because she knows she's unpopular despite hiring nearly every available PR person in the world. She won't let Archie come back either because he's her hostage.

Most likely is that Hazno will come back for the occasions coming up next year to promote himself and pretend that he's still welcome.
William must be so pissed off with him and will have to pretend in public that they are mates again. I really feel sorry for William and Kate because whatever they do the Harkles will paint themselves as victims.

I felt really sorry for MM and PH initially. I hate the British press who seemed to hound them and slag them off at any given opportunity. When they made the decision to move I had so much sympathy. Really hoped they could go and have a quiet and peaceful life they so desired.
Since then they’ve done nothing but court the press and my eyes have been truly opened, especially with reading this thread.
Nothing says “ give us our privacy “ more than a misscarriage announcement.

 

[ResidentMerkin]

In the US, the narrative around the Pfizer/Moderna vaccine is increasingly falling down party/woke lines as with so many other issues over the last 18 months. I am just waiting to hear them pontificating on how everyone MUST all get the vaccine and those who don't are racist criminals who should be shot (or as Harry would put it, will get what they deserve and be sent to their room by mother nature).

And yes, there will be a payment linked to that so-called PSA

If he doesn't have any military patronage or reps, he will no longer be front row royal. If TQ restores even one patronage or leaves him/ them with any Commonwealth patronage, then they are back in the fold. And I shall be charging up my megaphone

 

[NutMegandCinnamong]

Apparently they’ve rehired two of their former reps to deal with their charity pledges in the UK.

I wondered why they’d want to work with Smegma and Hazzard again, but apparently the reps have just started their own business together and I expect they need the exposure.

Still no "ding ding dong dong" holiday special. Thank goodness for small mercies

I didn't read that right and thought you had put 'ding dong the witch is dead' ...

Agree. I think they must realise by now that there is absolutely NOTHING Meeeagain can do/say/dance/paint/etc to redeem herself from the depths of the shithole she's dug herself into by simply being an outragously greedy bleep. Harry might just about manage to be tolerated after a few quiet years of doing good deeds and staying under the radar, but not her. You are right, I think he will be supported quietly to keep him out of mischief...how they will keep her quiet, I don't know, I guess it depends what she knows - but judging by the few snippets of info we had, the RF became very weary of her very quick, so probably not huge amounts. It might be just Harry's love of poultry that they might want to keep out of the press...

Maybe Markle does have beans to spill but I'll bet that the grey suits have everything on Markle. If she does attempt to blackmail the BRF then I think all the rumours about Markle will be confirmed. Every piece of dirt on her will be made public. In her book Lady CC made it clear that the Firm know about Markle's past in depth and so does many of the MSM. They're just not reporting it yet. I really hope that Markle is stupid and greedy enough to try and force HMTQ's hand, it will be just lovely.

You are completely correct. They know everything and there is a lot to know. She's just pushing boundaries atm but will go to far eventually. Harry just wouldn't be told.

I agree because surely she has more to lose when it comes to exposure. I honestly don't think that there's much info on the royals that we don't already know about. Andrew has been exposed as an arrogant slimy tit and the worst that Charles has done (cheating on Diana) is already out there. Charles probably leads a rather straight laced life these days. I don't suppose that there really is any juicy gossip that Meghan can astound us with.

She on the other hand is known to have been a soho house escort doing drugs and partying with rich men. Not to mention the faked pregnancy and setting her dad up. She has far more to lose in terms of exposure in the press and the British press will side with the Queen whatever Meghan tries to pull off.

I also think that the MSM will take a huge bleeping delight in exposing the grifter, they're going to love that... and so will I

Isn't it funny that the Harkles complained that they were 'unsupported by the Institution' and its officials in grey suits who were allegedly out to get them, and then we get a press release only a few months later telling us they have rehired two of those unsupportive grey suit-wearing palace officials to work for them....



Still waiting for the podcast, which we were told is coming 'before the end of the year'. Notice 'Prince' Harry is on the Spotify marketing tweets, He will want to stop that happening again, as people might think he was exploiting his royal status for **shocked face**

Oh wait....



OK to save you having to listen, this has been put together by Gimlet, Spotify's own production arm. So Gimlet have got in touch with a bunch of celebrities and arranged for them to talk about their challenges of 2020 as a short 'audio diary'. So the interesting content has come from e.g. Sir Elton John, Tyler Perry and so on.

The Harkles don't talk directly to any of these people. They just read a scripted comment to introduce some of the pieces. Zero added value. Lazy, lazy lazy. And we get to hear Harry saying stuff like 'grab a cozy beverage and settle down'

 

[Samf2020]

They cant come back as part time royals and still go ahead with the Netflix and Spotify deals. And there is no way the money grabbing witch megsy will let that money go.
They have said way too much and pissed too many people off in the RF to be allowed back.
Meggy might think she is holding all the cards with her diaries and recordings and whatever the ginger dunce told her, but that is nothing compared to what the suits have on her and him if it came to it.
They have been in this game way longer than her and are much better at it too. She is in way over her head but is too bigheaded to realise that.
My opinion and hope is that they are giving them enough rope and letting them talk themselves further into the tit.

Yes the vomit emoji is 100% appropriate.

It's amazingly slow, dull and ponderous. I gave it a listen, on 1.5 speed, with generous use of the skip button just to get through 30 minutes. Give me Lady C any day who at least has a bit of snarky humour, wit and intellect. Some of the guests are interesting, there are generous dollops of smuggery, self-importance and pretentious twafflery. 'without hope the dark stars have no way to shine' . As 'Prince Harry said, 'And remember, you guys love Tattle always wins, Amazing. Lets shine a light to that and make this thread a better place............. stay safe out there. Thanks for tattling you guys.

Oh and they've miraculously found an 'Archie' to speak a few words at the end of the podcast.. He says 'Happy New Year'.

ETA: The 'Archie' voiceover is in the last minute if you want to avoid the continous cringe-fest of the rest of this turkey. Its. So. Boring. That child's voice is older than 19 months - more like a 3 or 4 year old? And the Harkles switch to 'we are now acting being parents' mode...

 

[LittleLottieLoo]

Their podcast sounds like one of the apps I use to send my insomniac self to sleep. Drifting more than uplifting.

I'll listen at 3am when I'm desperate for a few hours shut eye

"Ginger dunce"...I'm crying
