Prince Harry was 'persistent' in seeking photo of Lilibet with late Queen, but she REFUSED!

How disgusting. Why wouldn’t she take a photo with her great-granddaughter?

Did she fear it would be used for marketing purposes she had no control over?

HMTQ knew that he didn't want the photo out of any sentimental love for her but merely in order to use her to make money via featuring it on Netflix / his treacherous book.

Must have been an awful feeling for her to know that while meeting her great grandchild, which should have been a purely happy event.

Liz knew they'd sell any pics to make $$$$. After all, she was the one Harry was constantly calling to give him money. She'd tell him to ask his father and then he'd bitch Charles wouldn't take his calls. When Liz asked Charlie why, his response "because I am not a bank".

Had Charles coughed up $100 million like they wanted, we would have been spared so much of their shit.

I remember when Tony Blair had his last, somewhat unexpected, child, the Queen Mother almost insisted on being photographed with him, knowing the child could look back at having met a public figure from almost a century before her. But, then, the Queen Mother knew the Blairs wouldn’t trade on the photo.

The BRF have nothing to panic about. This docuseries isn't going to change anyone's opinion. Its been four years. Everyone has made up their mind. And H&M can't say whatever they want about the BRF because they'd get sued, so it'll just be more cryptic suggestions and innuendo that'll keep the drama alive and people guessing, but nothing solid and tangible. It's the same thing. Again.

I was actually really excited about this show but now I'm burnt out. It's same old, same old. Nothing will change. There isn't a moment of closure for this rift, it'll only end through a slow descent of eventual disinterest from the public as the Wales kids get older and new celebrities create drama.

The tolerance of the Royal Family for Harry and Meghan is astonishing. My father and mother would have told me to fuck off years before if I had tried to blackmail them into giving me money and trashed them to filth to everyone they knew. I'm not sure if Charles deeply loves his son no matter what he does or is intolerably stupid. I lean towards the latter.

The US visit solidified that W&K will be fine and, for me at least, snuffed out most of my interest in this drama. The reception of the PPoW was exactly what you'd expect for royals, proving that a large group of Americans will always be fascinated with the fairytale of the BRF. Meghan and Harry can have their celebrity functions and friends because it really is two different worlds.

1). Even the hardest core racist would have trouble realising the child had African ancestry.

2). Even if the Queen were a raging bigot, she would realise the child is irrelevant to the dynasty thanks to the low positon of Harry and his children in the line of succession. Harry’s marriage to Meghan isn’t going to put a king or queen of African descent on the throne.

There’s no evidence that the queen was a bigot or mind bogglingly stupid.

She was photographed in the not greatest shape with the last PM of her reign. She was not going to give her worthless shit for a grandson and his grifting wife the opportunity to exploit her for more filthy sources of income. They have a very high standard of living to maintain while profiting greatly from their various charities and their endless hectoring of a monarchy which has supplied them with enough fuel and resources to live lavishly and in very self-congratulatory hypocritical comfort.

I won't bother to link because it's too much of a pain in the ass to link pictures on here now that the DM and twitter are both partially banned. But go and look.

The last public photo ever taken of her shows her smiling with a visibly bloodshot eye. She wasn't shy of being seen with it on important occasions.

In other words, she denied Harry his money shot, in full knowledge that it was just that: a money shot.

by Anonymousreply 54December 7, 2022 8:12 PM

If Harry really attacks the royals in his reality TV show and book, I'm thinking he may wind up in big trouble with the State Dept. His immigration status here has to be more than loopy: being married to a US citizen does not give right of abode. He's probably here on a diplomatic passport, avoiding paying taxes, etc. Now if he continues to antagonize the royals and Charles who is Head of State of our closest ally, I'm presuming he'll get his ginger ass kicked out. I think Biden meeting with William should have been a clear symbol to Harry that he's a nobody as far as the US government is concerned.

Maybe Meghan will enjoy being an A list celebrity in Botswana.

Oprah - who is said to have felt this matter is a family issue to be resolved amongst them

The Obamas

None of the Royals including Princess Eugnie who is said to be closest to the couple and Fergie, who might have, but has just been invited back to Sandringham Christmas after 20-something years

The Palace told them that they wouldn't be able to explain why Ashleigh was there but her mother wasn't, so it was recommended that Ashleigh not attend.

r68: what part did YOU not understand? The "Palace" didn't tell them ANYTHING. The "Palace" didn't interfere with their personal guest list or family invitations. Unless they were inviting A third world dictator, they got to invite who they wanted. There was no 'recommendation' from BP re Ashleigh or any other distant Markle relation; in fact, if you believe the rumors at the time, Charles and BP were deeply concerned about the optics of not having the bride's father and family present at such a public wedding. But they went along with what H&M wanted - it was THEIR wedding.

This was all down to Meghan, and also to Harry. They made the decisions about who came and who didn't. Meghan was upset about the situation with her Dad, and embarrassed by her sister and half-brother (which I don't blame her for), and decided to cut our her paternal relatives. That included Ashleigh, unfortunately.

Ashleigh didn't lie in the documentary, but repeated the disingenuous excuses that Meghan fed her at the time. She probably knew better, but its Netflix and a lot of $$ on the line for her aunt.

by Anonymousreply 72December 8, 2022 7:54 PM

I find Dan Wootton insufferable at times, much like his pal and colleague Piers Morgan. But damn if he isn't spot on in his assessment of Meg's treatment of her father, and her continued surgical removal of him from her life in the series....I wouldn't agree with calling Tom Markle "delightful", but the rest is truth:

"But most painful is Netflix being used to justify Meghan cutting all contact with her delightful father Thomas, despite admitting earlier in the show: 'I was a daddy's girl my whole life and I was with him a lot.'

It's left for Harry to callously declare: 'She had a father before this. And now she doesn't have a father. And I shouldered that, because if Meg wasn't with me, then her dad would still be her dad.'

Excuse me Harry, Meghan very much does still have a father – a father who lives a few hours from you in a humble Mexican village where he continues to recover from a stroke that nearly ended his life earlier this year.

The crime which has got him forever banished for good? Setting up a few paparazzi pictures, something Meghan has seemingly done herself in the past.

My conclusion from this unpalatable and ugly affair is that entering the world of Harry and Meghan is like joining some sort of woke cult."

This is one of those relationships where they turn to each other to affirm the worst in themselves.
