When that happens and his usefulness to Manipulative Megan is exhausted, he will be dumped and come grovelling back to the U.K., where hopefully all his bridges are burnt.

Forgive him? Not in a million, trillion years. He is an odious, entitled maggot who sycophants have sucked up to for decades due to his possibly tenuous Royal connections. That is why he believes the garbage that emerges from his mouth.. nobody dares challenge him at the time.
100% with you on this CFB. Even DH said there is no way he would have ever got a commission in the forces had he not been who he is (sorry the man he was). I'm actually past feeling sorry for him now, for a pair who wanted anonymity its a mighty strange way to go about achieving it.
I just feel so sorry for the Queen.

The Queen has it under control

(Hope it’s ok for me to say this):
Being an American I don’t really believe in royalty or aristocracy, but I do think the Queen and some other members of your RF have done wonderful things for your country. And so I think it’s a shame that Harry seems to want to hang onto some advantages of royalty without having to work and sacrifice on behalf of the public. And not even live there! It does make me feel sad for the Queen.

It’s perfectly ok to say anything that you like!

I agree in any case with you completely. You do, of course have your own Royalty, namely the Kennedy’s all the way back to Joe the Bootlegger, The Kardashuns and the Baldwins.

Never did understand how Teddy got away with Chappaquiddick.

Thanks.

There’s no royalty here. Nope not even the Kennedys. Not even Jay Z and Beyoncé. And especially not the Kardashians.

I’m really interested to hear the opinion of those of you across the pond

I'm not a huge fan of the Royals but I think Harry is being cruel now. His Grandmother is grieving the loss of her husband and now he dumps this on her?. In any family this would be unacceptable.

Wonder which newspaper will break ranks and actually pay to have this in their papers?
