Megan & Harry are and will remain the two most popular members of the royal family . Is Andrew in the clear yet ?

The last English king of England was Harold. Since then we've had French, Welsh, Scots, Dutch, Germans, and maybe others I've forgotten. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let´s hope Harry stands up for his wife and children and also make it the last. Let him be free if that is his wish. I totally fail to see where there would be any crisis. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VocalNeal Posted January 12, 2020 Share Posted January 12, 2020 I don't think he will get censured for wishing to be independent. However he will get a bollocking for the manner in which he did it or for not asking first so that "the palace" could make the announcement.

jany123 Posted January 12, 2020 Share Posted January 12, 2020 History repeats.... a second scarlet woman from the states, ensnares a royal and destroys his nobility.

These ‘insiders’ are all blaming the woman for this. These blokes probably can’t imagine an equal partnership, or god forbid, or consider that Harry saw that marrying an outsider with her own money meant that he had a way out of the firm and life which he pretty clearly despises (and now is surplus to requirements).

TallGuyJohninBKK Posted January 12, 2020 Share Posted January 12, 2020 Maybe it's worth asking here.... why does Britain really need any royals or royal family in the first place? Yes, I know it's history and custom and tradition. But in today's world, what real purpose do they serve in modern Britain, other than probably being a huge collective expense to the country. You've got a Prime Minister, as such, and a Parliament, as such... What else do you need? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phkauf Posted January 12, 2020 Share Posted January 12, 2020 36 minutes ago, Salerno said: Tourist attraction. Here's a thought - open up Buckingham Palace for AirBnB - they've got plenty of rooms. The park behind looks lovely. And the Queen can meet and greet in the morning with tea and crumpets. This would go a long way to covering their expense to the British taxpayer. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why would they want to stay in the firm? Nice bloke and his lovely Wife. Good luck to them. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
