Prince Harry and Meghan: Royal Family 'hurt' as couple begin 'next chapter'
bbc.com ^ | January 9, 2020 | BBC

The Royal Family are said to be "hurt" at the Duke and Duchess of Sussex's announcement they will step back as senior royals.

Prince Harry and Meghan did not consult any senior royal before making the statement, the BBC understands.

Buckingham Palace was "blindsided", said BBC royal correspondent Jonny Dymond, as talks about their future had begun but were in very early stages.

Harry will ultimately pay a terrible price for being pussy whipped by this woman now. He’s nuts.

Harry is nuts. Why else do you think his wife is known as Meghan skidMarkle? She is a gold digging trouble maker. Just wait until the next chapter gets boring and people are not fawning all over her.

I hope the royal family takes away all financial support and perks from these two entitled, spoiled brats. Let’s see where they are in a year with this vast, Kardashian-level fortune they expect to earn. I predict they will divorce within 1-2 years.

Disband the entire royal family, and eliminate the monarchy. It is a medieval concept that has no place anywhere today.
Political power should not be inheritable.

I’m sure she didn’t handle it well when Harry’s Granny told her what she could and couldn’t wear.

Harry will tire of her constant biching and moaning want to “come home” at some point.

We warned you, Harry !

Unfortunately, the job they are going to get is trading on their celebrity in some gaudy reality TV like scheme. The royal family does need to be retired but I suspect that the way Harry and Meghan are going to do it is not going to be the most dignified way.

Right there, that is not something someone should tolerate.

And Granny (who is boss of the Firm) shouldn’t tolerate Halfwit and MeGain’s insubordination. She needs to fire them from representing her or the UK once and for all.

After having watched “The Crown” I can appreciate what they have done.

Queen Elizabeth is a TYRANT, she has RUINED so many other lives/marriages (including her own) that the best thing for them is to Brexit.

I never loved “the Royals”, but I now have an actual DISGUST for the modern era Monarchy, especially Elizabeth.

A lot more to it than that.

You want the Kahn’s to take over? It’s a risk.

She was told the RULE Royal life before she married. She ACCEPTED them (at least at face value). She is the one ruining Harry’s life. He has no one but Me-again’s mother in his corner now.

She is, was and always will be a gold digger. Look at her history.

1. Rumor has it that she was married at 18 and the marriage was annulled.
She married again, on a beach in the Caribbean.

2. She got a job (casting couch?) as a player on a cable show that was filmed in Canada.

3. She met a woman there who said she could introduce Me-again to Prince Harry.

4. Me-again announced her divorce by sending her rings back to her husband (the first he knew they were divorcing).

5. She then sets up a Charity in (surprise!) Harry’s favorite place in Africa.

6. Her friend then introduces Me-again to Harry and she is ‘everything he could want in a woman’. Including being 1/4 Black. (And boo-Hoo, she has always endured discrimination because of it. But she straightens her hair whenever it needs it, because she doesn’t really identify as Black unless it gets her something)

7. Harry falls for everything she tells him. Especially that they should marry quickly as she’s getting older and might have trouble conceiving.

8. They marry. She becomes pregnant ASAP and, voila!, they have the 7th in line to the throne.

9. She starts whining about Will and Kate and, subsequently, ‘the Sussexes’ separate themselves from ALL the other Royals. The announce they will be moving out of Kensington Palace. They use taxpayer pounds to remodel the old Frogmore home, on the grounds of Windsor Castle (about a 1/2 from London). They never bother to actually live there either.

10. Me-again insists they spend 6 weeks visiting with her mother and friends in Canada for the Christmas holidays, even though it may well be Prince Philip’s (Harrys’ Grandfather) last Christmas.

11. (SURPRISE) ‘The Sussexes’ say they are ‘stepping back from more Royal duties’ and will split their time between the UK and North America.

You Me-again supporters, do you get the picture yet?? I sure hope that The Queen will cut off their taxpayer stipend as they aren’t working for the British people anymore.

There is a sort of logic to monarchy. There is usually a 50/50 chance that you will get a decent leader. In a Democracy the odds fall to 1 in 5. Lol.

of course there is a lot more to it than that - but typically people on this site write two or three lines, not the entire details. For example so someone wrote:
You want the Kahn’s to take over? What the heck does that even mean, why don't you write out a full explanation, there must be more to it than that!

“...I predict they will divorce within 1-2 years.”

That’s about right. That marriage is not going to last because of Harry’s so called wife. She was a real witch with the staff she had. What oh what is she going to do without servants? We all know she will not be a happy camper.
