Is Harry happy?

When did Buck House announce queenie had forbidden Megan to wear Jeans, link please

The past decades since the war, particularly the sixties, seventies. eighties and nineties, presented so many opportunities for women who wanted to develop satisfying careers, and they particularly included those who failed to take advantage of their initial education, and those with young children and families to support. Sadly there are some of us to whom this did not apply. Equally there are some of us who have never had any desire to have a career but have had it thrust upon them due to circumstances beyond their control - I fall into both of these brackets.

I too find some of these comments spiteful and totally unnecessary. None of us have any say in what kind of lifestyle we are born into - be it poverty or wealth. Surely what matters more is what we chose to do with our lives and how happy and healthy we are.

Jalima I do agree that some topics tend to cause a frenzy among the aforementioned 'excitable' posters! It has been said several times on GN that it is not pleasant to be hectored, insulted, or have your opinion shredded by someone snapping at your heels who happens to think differently but doesn't think that you should and, heaven forbid, express your opinion. The simple way is to not join in I suppose; another is to completely ignore ranting posts, but I can't be alone in feeling that those whose posts always read as if they are in red hot capital letters shouldn't be allowed to silence debate or put people off saying what they think. I have posted one or two comments in the past and others have disagreed and expressed an opinion (politely!) that has changed my mind - and feel the wiser for it. Some university debating societies now apparently won't allow speakers air time if they do not agree with what the guest is going to say; what price free speech, eh?

I will say that I have learned a lot since joining GN Rosina!!
Mostly informative, interesting and sometimes

Yes - it's been a great revelation to me to have discussions with women around my own age - very satisfying, and often hilarious!

Jalima1180, your post Weds 11 @ 22:23 I thought it was very funny,I could just picture them, same as the rest of us.??

Ohhps not supposed to be an angry face but I can’t remove ir??????

I was remembering our first 'tiff' Bridgeit, which was over something I had cooked which he very politely said he'd rather not have again. I stomped off and left him for a whole two hours.

that was DH btw, not Harry

Ha that brings back memories Jalima, I have been known to throw a meal or two in the bin ,but I think DH was glad I did !?. I’m sure if it had been Harry he would have been most polite ?

It was a pudding - and I have made it since and he enjoys it. Either it was something he had never had before (probably) or I make it better now.

I doubt many of us would look happy when the press is so busy speculating about when Meghan will produce a baby bump! And (if she reads the newspapers) being told constantly how 'old' she is, how she is making mistakes when on display as a royal, constant comparisons with Kate, not to mention her own family making quite odd comments about her as well - bet that wasn't what she thought would happen when she married Harry!

I doubt Megan is troubled by criticism, she is a woman with much self confidence , she showed this when she walked alone through the Chapel on her wedding day. I don’t think it was a display of feminism.

I also had a feeling that Harry didn't look as relaxed as we've seen him. Possibly anxious on behalf of Meghan if she's confided that getting to grips with life in the Firm is challenging. I guess anyone would find it hard to be away from close friends/confidantes despite marrying your prince. As much as the press would have us believe that Kate is a help, I have my doubts. Heavens she's a busy mother of three! I'd rather the RF than a republic but their life is up for public scrutiny (as are many 'famous' celebrities) and they have to build a bridge and get over it.

It amuses me the way Gransnetters seem to have a hotline to the private lives of the Royals!

Like an online version of Hello! Magazine.

without the glamorous photos!

if he's not happy with his overprivileged life he can always walk away from it,I dont suppose for a minute that there would be people on the streets begging him to stay .Certainly no one I know ..thats folk who REALLY work for a living and have bills to pay on ever decreasing incomes and who haven't had even one holiday in over 10 years ...or more .Unlike your precious Harry who seems always to be off on some jaunt at the tax payers expense.I just wish there weren't so many knee benders on here .Surely we're all old ..and wise enough to realise kings and queens and princes and knights etc ...only belong in fairy tales .They are a medieval concept unsuitable for a modern world .

But they cannot walk away from it Paddyann, they wouldn’t have a private life, the paparazzi would hound them , didn’t work for Diana did it ?

paddyann some people will never get it!

Some do not want a republic, the thought of yet another election , no thank you.

Not everyone are kneebenders Paddyann, just as not Scots are republicans

I totally agree paddyann but I’m afraid you are fighting a losing battle here on GN .

Is Harry happy? I sincerely hope so! ?

I should think so, with a wife like Meghan.
