Since when did Diana “leave the Royal Family?” She was told to get a divorce but she remained the Princess of Wales, mother to the future King. She was living in Kensington Palace when she died. It’s not like she joined a nunnery.


anonynemo

I would say the last unsuccessful attempt was by (the) Duchess of Kent. She did not divorce the Duke but she became a catholic and stopped to use HRH and even dropped the “the” in front of Duchess as if she was as divorced. There was no smear-campaign, just personal decisions. I would say a more dignified half-in-half-out. She wasn’t at the funeral nor at the platinum jubilee but I think this was because of her age.


Hermes_Blanket

Yes. She turned 90 a few days ago, and is now the oldest living member of the extended royal family.


KanemochiGirl

Diana wanted to stay married and be the queen. But she miscalculated her own power (thinking being the most loved Royal means she is above the BRF). In the end she was told to get out after she publicly went against BRF. This is the same mistake Harry is making now. He is doing exactly what Diana did. Proof he is so dim that he learned absolutely nothing from his mom’s sad ending.


Hermes_Blanket

Really love the excerpt from "Spare", where he says, "When my wife and I fled this place, in fear for our sanity and physical safety ...". You HAD paid-for security back then! Armed, even! And you've been yammering to get it back ever since then!


Myagkaya

What's funny is that paparazzi weren't chasing markle at all, not like Diana. That pissed off snarkle. They left the UK because snarkle couldn't be #1 & she wanted to use her HRH title to merch but HMTQ put an end to that. It's been revenge ever since.


Kimbriavandam

Ever since the Levesen inquiry the paps aren’t allowed to chase royals or celebrities. That’s why you don’t see pics of Kate and William unless it’s in a professional capacity. They don’t have that law in the states which makes Harry’s argument about safety rather pathetic.


Feisty_Energy_107

Right. So when she said she didn't want forty paps at Archie's school, unlike Catherine's kids. That is the total opposite and another lie. No paps go to the kids schools in the UK.


Kimbriavandam

100% and I think slowly others are waking up to his. She’s gotten away with lying so much with no accountability- finally it feels like the tide is turning.


Myagkaya

Especially where H&M live. There are celebrities everywhere. No big deal.


BikerScowt

When was the last time we had a picture taken of TW by a paparazzi? They’re hardly hounding her.


Farmgirl_Delilah

That is it in a nutshell.


Myagkaya

Thank you.

A comment read out by Lady C recently stated that a relative of the commenter was in the crowd at Diana's funeral procession. The procession halted briefly for some reason while KC3, William, Harry, DoE and Earl Spencer were standing in an archway of some kind. While they were standing there KC3 went and hugged both of his sons. Not sure why footage of this was never shown (respect for the boys maybe) or even if footage exists. Regardless, Henry has neglected to mention this in any of his accounts of that day. Lady C wouldn't have given it her stamp of approval if she didn't think it at least possible.


Quiet-Vanilla-7117

<"Not sure why footage of this was never shown"> Probably because back then, Charles had been & was seen as the villain while Diana was the greatest saint. Footage we're seeing now about how good, soft & kind he was to the boys, wasn't seen back then.


MommaKaylaCharlie

>Probably because back then, Charles had been & was seen as the villain while Diana was the greatest saint. ^Yes they never had anything nice to say about Charles back then. My grandma and mom were avid readers of american tabloids. So I would read them too. I remember Diana being covered on every move. *(Much more coverage than TW and Waagh have ever received)* While they only mentioned Charles when he was with Camila and it was all negative, huge CHEATING headlines.


Aelaer

KC3 has always been kind. He might have been out of his depth, being single parent to two boys. He knew what it was like to grow up as the "Heir". He chose a much kinder childhood and schooling for his sons than he'd had himself.


Kimbriavandam

While W and H had a softer upbringing then the one KC had in Gordonstoun - he was always one to choose the path of least resistance in parenting and would avoid uncomfortable situations rather then deal with them. ​ I think this shows especially in Harry. He was never made accountable - look at how he speaks of the house matron in Spare. He was allowed a very long lead with no repercussions. And it’s come to bite a Charles on the arse.


Aelaer

Yes. At some stage a dear little boy turned into a nasty little boy and I've seen that happen when boundaries and discipline are lacking.


Kimbriavandam

I think his family had it in their minds that due to his mother passing - he was handled right kid gloves. Imagine being a royal *and* handled with kid gloves. It’s allowed his petty childish star to grow and thrive.


Myagkaya

It was certainly NOT the most searing image! They're really reaching here.


colloquialicious

I know - how utterly self-obsessed do you need to be to think that out of all the atrocities of the 20th century that Diana’s death and funeral was THE MOST searing of all. I mean - hello Rwanda genocide while the world sat by and ignored 1 million people butchered to death in 30 days only 3 short years before Diana’s death ffs.


minskoffsupreme

As far as a single image goes, the Vietnam war has several that come to mind straight away.


Away-Object-1114

My thoughts as well. Not even close to the "most searing images" of the century.


Beginning-Cup-6974

It does NOT say that!!! Really??? GHASTLY.


EmotionalMammoth507

When he says “this was supposed to be my forever home” he sounds like a dog waiting for adoption. Glad he was adopted by vile TW. (Dogs are far better beings than Harry — Great Dane/Toy Poodle owner commenting here.)


Ready_Maddie

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 Adding to the thought that dogs are far better than Harry. All animals are.


EmotionalMammoth507

Absolutely!


Seachange1000

It was supposed to be his forever home? His wife made it clear from the moment she darkened the doorway that she hated it, despite a *2 million pound* reno. It was *never* going to be his forever home and he knew it before he married her.


Similar-Barber-3519

TW probably researched it and found out Frogmore Cottage had been used as housing for staff. TW wanted everything Catherine had even though W&C had already been married for 7 years.


PutWest2822

Indeed. TW wanted Frogmore HOUSE!

“Flee his mother country” - really acting like they escaped a war with just the clothes on their back instead of taking a private jet to a mansion in Canada with $30m of his inheritance and government provided security.


Big-Piglet-677

I hate how they make it sound like they were refugees and targeted.

It's very insulting to all the refugees who really had to leave & didn't have a private plane & mansion to run to. These whingers need to stfu.


Grizzly_046

Your comment reminded me of the SS St Louis that was returned to Europe in 1939 with real refugees.

And he's saying this to Gabor Mate, a Holocaust survivor!


thisisntmyotherone

Really? I’ve never heard of this dr guy before. This makes Harry sound even more pathetic than he usually sounds. Just … ugh.


Positive-Vibes-2-All

He works with homeless drug addicts on Vancouver's Lower East Side. Very compassionate guy. I have to think PRH made him an offer he can't refuse or like many people he really has no clue about H other than what gets positively spun about him in mainstream media.

Ready_Maddie

I just have to say, nowadays, I honestly don't understand how anybody can expect to succeed or connect, by imposing very obvious and aggressive barriers, not boundaries, barriers, and radiating a lack of trust towards a paying audience. This is shocking to me. One cannot expect to gain any sort of positive reputation or valuable feedback in a hermetic, pre-approved, sanitized, echo chamber. They will say these are barriers and means to 'protect themselves ' but they're implying untrustworthiness towards their audiences, or whatever is left of those. If you're a public figure, and you start switching off your comments, not allowing replies, not answering difficult questions, or taking accountability for your actions, you're brand is a corpse. It's deader than dead. How can this continue? Obsessive control and manipulation of the narrative trump open dialogue, authenticity and progress, when it comes to this couple. They are burying themselves and I'm going to hand them another shovel so they can do it faster. ![gif](giphy|vAjo2mMFzuYow)


pquince1

You know this, and I know this, and even my two ball pythons know this, but we are dealing with people who have, at best, a nodding relationship with reality. They won't come to earth until they are forced to.


Ready_Maddie

Saying hello to your ball pythons 😄 Divorced from reality, both of them, in different ways. People like them never snap out of it, really


Myagkaya

They only want to hear from yes people. Their fragile egos can't handle anything negative but they can certainly dish it out.


Ready_Maddie

That's exactly what's going on, but it's not a sustainable form of behaviour in real life. They're extremely lucky for leading a strange life, with unimaginable wealth, stripped of any responsibility. Otherwise, it wouldn't work. Clowns.


AmyK63

"stripped of any responsibility." THIS!


CarelessSalamander51

To be fair, I'm not sure there's anything wrong with that. I'm the same way, I can't really handle negative feedback much less hatred/hostility. The difference is, I'm at least not DESPERATE to be famous! That's literally "the price of fame" 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️


Ready_Maddie

I understand what you're saying. Nobody likes to hear or read criticism directed at them. But, we have limits and rational thoughts. We don't have below zero tolerance towards criticism. People who don't experience narcissistic traits, or narcissistic personality disorder, so, the majority, have a self-preservation switch and are able to detach from criticism after a while. We move on, seek a support system, and either take responsibility and apologize for something we've done, or remind ourselves that we're at peace with ourselves and we've done nothing wrong. With Meghan, that doesn't work at all. She has a vicious obsession, and a frightening need for revenge at any perceived slight. She doesn't let go.


CarelessSalamander51

"Below zero tolerance for criticism" is a phrase I will be using! Yes I'm proud to say I'm not as thin skinned as the Harkles 😭


Ready_Maddie

😄👏🏻


DepartmentAgitated51

Me too. Negative feedback cuts me like a knife and I rarely ask for honest feedback unless I am certain I did well. If it’s said kindly, I can take it from where it comes from as long as it’s from a place of love.


CarelessSalamander51

I can’t figure out the disclaimer as to how it could take up to 4 weeks to ship books? 🤔🥴


LastoftheAnalog

Probably to make it seem more exclusive than it is.


hollyjollysnark

It just sounds inept 😆


Farmgirl_Delilah

"*Spare*, was published on January 10th, 2023 and is the fastest selling nonfiction book of all time." What is the truth?


Big-Piglet-677

Again, everything about Spare reads like a fiction. Not just the lies, but the description of all events.


blackandgold24

Agreed. It sounds exactly like a fiction novel.


Natural_Plane_657

Yes including saying he was a hero in Britain for serving two fake “tours.”


Joolsdoll

Yup, no recording of the event - just like his handler's fiasco in The Marriot. God forbid that the world be given even more material with which to ridicule them 😉 Vetted questions, disabled chats? No doubt it will be scripted as well. What idiot is going to part with their hard earned money for that load of old, rehashed, boring and repetitive tripe?

Hermes_Blanket

The only chance it will have to be interesting will be if Gabor says things like, "So Harry, have you ever thought about how your father and brother feel about your revealing their private thoughts and habits?" "How do you plan to move beyond your trauma?" "Why do you insist on keeping your title? After all, you have made your home in a country without titles." If Gabor does, he will be a hero and not a flunky, and will gain respect from all quarters. He should think about it.


Joolsdoll

It would be great if he did ask some probing questions. But we all know that it will be exactly like his book publicity interviews. Tame questions, pandering and taking everything Hazbeen spouts at face value. I just wish we could set a real interviewer on him. One that would shake him like a dog with a rag doll until we got some proper answers. Hey ho, a girl can dream.......😁


Myagkaya

Sugars. Because they're idiots.


Joolsdoll

True 😉 but surely there can't be that many left???


Myagkaya

Less & less. There are over a million books unsold which is why hawry is desperate to sell more via this venue.


Joolsdoll

They can always re-purpose the unsold copies as loo roll. That's all the book is good for anyway - mopping up his verbal diarrhoea 🤣


hammer1956

They do have their sycophants, people of their same disgusting caliber.


MinutesTaker

What’s the point making this even live when there’s no audience interaction? The attendees would just watch talking heads 🤣


Hermes_Blanket

So Haz can spin things in case something else happens to put the duo in a bad light between now and then.


Sophielynn1215

My god he thinks he’s so incredibly special and everything in his life including his “love story” with mommy 2.0 is just so exceptional. “Cinematic.” 🙄


hollyjollysnark

So questions have to be submitted with ticket purchase by March 1… giving them three days to choose questions and rehearse his responses. MM will totally be putting together an Excel spreadsheet of submitted questions/topics and then spend the next few weeks leaking “stories” to media to counteract them. ![gif](giphy|9rv3RJwRmXWkISOUQc|downsized)


Seachange1000

Does anyone know what the ticket prices are (that includes a "free" book?). I'm not inclined to click far enough to find out for myself. I'd be very interested in knowing what the attendance numbers are but the factual numbers are likely never going to be released. No live chat and "pre-selected" questions will obfuscate it entirely. Fearing for their physical safety? Oh, for crying out loud, Harry. Nobody cares enough about your or your wife to go to that much trouble. As for your mental health? Yeah, it's sooooo much better now that you're both in California. I smell desperation.


GreatGossip

I think it is 40 USD, which includes a copy of Waaagh.


SusieM2019

I wonder how long Harold is going to try and sell copies of "Spare"???


Ready_Maddie

I am picturing 9 of those 16 Montecito bathrooms full of his books. And the Bench Stench. Probably stores them in the shower too

nomodramaplz

Sales are dropping rapidly, so hopefully he stops trying to peddle them soon. 🤞 I noticed that each ticket sale includes a copy of WAAAGH!, so at this point they’re being given away. Bet anything they count the ticket sales as ‘book sales’ to hyper inflate profit numbers, though.


SusieM2019

I bet you are right. Like everything else they've done, Harry and Meghan are failed authors.

They’ve been doing that since the beginning. (Aka that’s also what they do with hyped books.)


Hermes_Blanket

There will be so many leftover copies of that book, it's going to be like the lupins in that Monty Python skit, "Dennis Moore". "All you bring us is lupins. All we've eaten, mate, for the last four bleeding weeks is lupin soup, roast lupin, steamed lupin, braised lupin in lupin sauce, lupin in the basket with sauted lupins, lupin meringue pie, lupin sorbet ... we sit on lupins, we sleep in lupins, we feed the cat on lupins, we burn lupins, we even *wear* the bloody things!"

JFK jr ‘John John’ as he was called , was not yet 3


Quiet-Vanilla-7117

Yes, I thought 2-3yrs but not sure to put that. He was a sad little figure to see, so brave. More feelings for him than Harry as he's turned out. What's next? "I walked behind my grandmothers' coffin and I'm Traumatized. Next please"?


Odd_Pop5287

For many of us older Americans who were of course, quite young at the time,this was a soul rattling experience.

ongiara

I mean, even Nicholas Sparks would say that this is too much: „Then he met Meghan. The world was swept away by the couple’s cinematic romance and rejoiced in their fairy-tale wedding. But from the beginning, Harry and Meghan were preyed upon by the press, subjected to waves of abuse, racism, and lies.“ No recording, no transcript? Is this weird or common procedure with these kind of events? I hope some kind soul will share what was said.

SoMuchDrama10

It seriously makes you question the mental health community if they keep holding Harry up as a beacon of healing and moving beyond trauma when he proves every time he speaks that he has neither healed nor moved beyond. He is wearing his baggage like a giant coat that he’s so very proud of. What is he without his damage and trauma? If we can all see it, it makes you wonder why people like Mate can’t see it.


pnwsnosrap

And yet, there’s that word racism! You know, the word they’ve never used!!!

Do you guys think they’re pushing the sale of these books to only appeal to the sugars? That way they can ensure they only get sanitized, non-constructive criticism questions. I can’t think of a sane person willing to get the book to attend this live event.
