Observer II 213 Report post Posted October 21 H and Meghan seem to be stressed out with Royal duties - perhaps they should pack it in and get proper jobs ? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Davy51 434 Report post Posted October 21 I can understand Harry's difficulties with memories of the treatment of his mother in the UK papers of the time, he was only an adolescent, but the spotlight comes with the job & pampered lifestyle. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bill 177 Report post Posted October 21 To be fair, he was born into this role and didn't really have much choice in the matter. Bill Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Evil Sid 606 Report post Posted October 22 It don't work like that obs. A politician or film star can stop doing what they do and disappear from the lime light. Not so royalty. No matter how tenuous the link to the throne is they are still royalty and thus a target for anybody looking to make a sensation in the world press. The closer to the throne the more of a target they are. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Observer II 213 Report post Posted October 22 Edward VIII & Mrs Simpson, seemed have retired into relative obscurity - so why not H & MM ? The problem is imo, MM seeks the flame of fame, then complains when she gets burnt. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Milky 73 Report post Posted October 24 I liked Harry but he seems to be badly influenced just recently. I can understand him blaming the press for his mothers' death (although if she had worn a safety belt and not refused security she probably would still be alive) Di courted the press when it suited her then seemed to object when they took an interest, just like Harry and his wife are doing now. I fail to understand why after all these years he is choosing to sue the News of the World and the Sun or how is able to, surely the time limit to sue has expired? 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Evil Sid 606 Report post Posted October 25 Given that there are ongoing investigations into alleged crimes going back thirty or forty years and longer then it would seem time limits may not come into it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Milky 73 Report post Posted October 30 Harry, having preached about the environment I hear is going to Japan to watch Rugby, can he not watch it on TV? 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
