Prince Harry and Meghan Markle denied ride home from Queen Elizabeth’s funeral on Air Force One: report
NY Post ^ | July 19, 2023 | Patrick Reilly

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle were denied a request to hitch a ride back to the United States with the Bidens on Air Force One after Queen Elizabeth II’s state funeral in September.

The White House worried that such escorting the estranged royals back across the pond would cause a “commotion,” sources told the Daily Mail.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex had been on the outs with the royal family following their bombshell 2021 interview with Oprah Winfrey when the Queen died at age 96 on Sept. 8.

The couple had been in the United Kingdom for charity events at the time and remained in the country through her funeral on Sept. 19.

However, they were uninvited from a pre-funeral reception at Buckingham Palace, where other royals, including King Charles and Queen Camilla, Prince William and Kate Middleton, were welcomed alongside President Biden and first lady Jill Biden Jill and other world leaders.

I’m going to add to this and say that it’s likely that NO ONE outside of that family (with the exception of a psychiatrist or two) has a true understanding of the family dynamic.

Lots of people like to pretend that they are fully aware of the goings-on of the rich and famous (and there’s certainly plenty of media that try to sell us the “full story”).

I’m not curious. I won’t judge those who are, but I’m not.

In one of the great films about British royalty that have been released recently (can't recall which one) there's a scene where Churchill is talking about King Edwards's American girlfriend. Churchill says something like "I can't understand what he sees in her" and then advisor's response was something like "she's acquired certain skills..."

My hunch is that "Meghan" has somehow acquired similar skills during her life.

Could well be....

Harry should have listened to his Grandfather - Prince Philip, who - allegedly - told him "You 'date' actresses. You don't marry them.

They CHOSE TO LEAVE the royals.

The OPPOSITE of what gold diggers would do.

The same reason Benedict Arnold was disrespected by the British after his treason.   Nobody respects a person who would turn against their nation.

I am not saying he deserves respect- maybe he does for exposing the evils of the Royals.

I am just saying I don’t get the hate here on FR for him.

And I think your analogy is a bit off. I can understand the brit not liking him. But we (here at FR specifically) have no skin in that game at all.

Maybe because most of us do not appreciate…

Victim mentality.
Weaponization of victim mentality.
Race baiting.
Etc.

These punks are evil. I’m wondering if your moral compass is in working order.

Didn’t they do the Oprah interview as his grandfather was dying?

Benedict Arnold was an American Major General and sold the plans for West Point to the British.   He was vilified here3 and fled to the British while the British soldier who was his handler wasd captured and hanged by us.   The British Major André had so endeared himself honorably so much to our American captors and guards many weeped when he was hanged. The British made Benedict Arnold a Brigadier General but was despised by all of the British officers he came in contact with until his death.

And my analogy was very apt.   Prince Harry commited treason against Britain, their royal family carries on and we have contempt for a British traitor.

PS: I have the same contempt for his mother Princess Diana.   She didn't live up to her oath to support her Queen and Country, even though she was a Bloody Spencer related to the same family of the beloved Sir Winston Churchill.

Duty is everything.

Under normal circumstances, yes, he would be too old. But coked to the gills, he might have a new spring in his step.

I wasn't thinking of Joe's age, but Megan's. Scuttlebutt is Joe like's 'em really young.

Prince Harry did not sell military plans to the enemy in time of war...he left the royals and took up on social media.

You’re comparing that to Benedict Arnold?

Get a grip.

They are two social butterflies who have no real consequence AND they left the royal pedophiles and complained about them (rightly so, it seems)

Betrayal of their country is exactly the same in both circumstances.

Betrayal to their family when their family is full of pedophiles?

Should they remain loyal to that? Is there nothing that you think warrants them leaving?
