Harry and Meghan to stand down

[claireyfairy8]

Meghan got what Meghan wanted.

A title.
A prince.
A baby.
Fame.
Fortune.
Never having to work again.

Not really a dig, just trying to find a reason why he felt the need to say it that’s all. After all, they want their privacy so why say something that could be slightly inflammatory? Could’ve said anything else.

And you referencing Kate as Waitey Katy wasn’t a dig?

She already had at least two of those before she met Harry. Her net worth before her marriage was a few million. Who knows she may be actually worth more than Harry whose mother left him much the same... depending on how it was invested.
Of course she earned hers rather than inherited it.

Nice she had a to do list.

Nice to note that she worked to obtain items 4, 5 and 6.

Nicer still that she was happy to share her list with you.

Kate is the one I feel most sorry for out of all of them.

She wasn't very famous before she married Harry.
Was worth a few million yes, but nothing compared to his wealth and the family she's married into.
A few million doesn't last forever with some of her shopping sprees.

Yes, forgot to say, had tea with her last week. She had it written in her diary which she let me photocopy.

'She had fame, a fortune, she has said she wants to work still, a baby can be got from any man, a title can be bought on-line and who can remember hers anywhere. And if the prince is not a Disney one who would want him, real ones don't have a happy ever after

I do think William probably got a bit too comfortable with Harry making them a trio and the whole dynamic changed when he found his own life partner. It’s maybe natural he didn’t want things to change and that caused some friction. He and Harry went through stuff together no kids should have to endure... maybe they have to settle into the change of Harry also having his own priorities before that bond returns.
The one thing about relationships is they are never static but change along with life changes both positively and negatively.

Again, assumptions. Perhaps it was Megan/Meghan/Rachel who didn’t enjoy the closeness of the trio.

None of us know what went on, we only know what we are told (sifting out all the nonsense where possible).

I wish them luck, I think they’re going to need it. It’s going to be a massive adjustment for Harry who has known no other life. Meggun couldn’t hack the adjustment despite having an idea of what she was getting into.

Our daughter worked with Mike Tindall on a shoot for the Telegraph. She said he was the nicest ‘celeb’ she’d met.
