Harry and Meghan. UK Visit.

It was announced on Radio 4, which surprised me.

Apparently they themselves announced they were coming[well their press office or whatever].
And have now pulled out[family not him]

Seems to me like drama. Again.
They must have known they hadnt got security sorted and would not like get it.

Playing games?
Meghan isn't brave enough and I think she would be foolish to come here after her lies about her inlaws.
"The hens have come home to roost"

Please let it be true that they aren’t coming.
I would like the King to meet his GC but would not like the publicity for their brand which I feel it is all about.
On the other hand will they play on the fact that they have been denied due to safety concerns?

Meghan plans first UK engagement in six years
Apparently in July "she will join her husband at work ?? in Britain ..........and carry out a visit to a hospital. The couple will undertake meetings and at least one public event together ."
Rhetorical question- who the 🤪🤪🤪🤪 does she think she is?

How on earth will they hide their children’s’ faces. Will they make them wear masks or cover their heads with blankets like Michael Jackson did?

Maybe she’s training them to walk backwards?

I have eaten food in India correctly , after being shown.
And yes, I am snobish, but not racist. Using cuterly the correct way (both British and Irish) shows class and education.

I'm so glad my grandmother was insistent that I used my cutlery correctly. I'd hate to be thought of as lower class and uneducated.

It’s a shame the king hasn’t seen their children in ages.
H&M say they don’t want publicity yet they love it.
I wish there was a solution for the sake of their children. I used to like Harry but he’s governed by her. Sad.

Harry may not now bring Meghan and the children as he has been refused Police protection except when on Royal premises.

Why all the drama?

If, and it’s a big ‘if’, they do all come, why do we need to hear so much about it?

They could fly in discreetly, go to whichever ‘royal’ accommodation they have been offered, Harry could do his Invictus business (on his own, nothing that requires Meg’s involvement as the actual event is still a whole year away), the King could meet the family privately if that’s what he wants to do, then they could all fly back to California and it could then be reported on the news.

All this pre visit nonsense will have been released by the Sussexes.

Their A list friends all gone, their business's all fail, they didnt want to be royal but everything they do is because of Harry's total status which they traded on, so they want back in. The King should never see Harry alone, he cannot be trusted. Definitely not Megan. Doubt William will forgive the total betrayal when he needed him most. He wants half in and half out. Bet he knows by now how manipulative his dear wife is. He was blindsided by love.

Will they?
Won’t they?
Any publicity is good to keep in the frame.

More of Harry's 'woe is me' and victim hood and what better way of going about it then to announce a visit and at the last minute say it wont be happening due to security concerns.

They could of course do as you've posted Calendargirl but then M wouldn't be in the limelight would she, and the pair of them wouldn't be making the entire thing look like a royal tour as they did in Aus.

What a horrible thing to do to Charles, who'd have been looking forward to seeing his GC and having criticised the British public for racism etc., what on earth makes them think we would want our taxes spent on their security!!!

I don't believe the palace has said they are coming...
I could be wrong but think the info was released by the Sussex' team

It's bad enough having to accept that not one member of your family wants to see you....not even a distant cousin, but for it to be public information is humiliating....
Pair of fools!

2nd sentence - totally agree

3rd sentence - yes to it all

1st sentence - I dont understand, like calendargirl says, why that has hasnt happened[assuming that it hasnt].
Would it be because it all has to happen on Meghan's terms?

TerriBull 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻a situation neatly summed up as usual.
I was tempted to put ‘as ever’ 😂

I think she panicked when the announcement was made on the news yesterday and bailed out.
Imagine having to walk into a room where you're disliked? She couldn't face walking into a whole country when she is disliked....and I know they have a fan base here but they're in the manority.

Harry went to court last year to argue for funded protection, he lost the case, why did he think that would have changed?

Maybe because the decision is made per visit with each trip examined on its own merit?

Is it? The result of his appeal in May 2025 seemed to be a general rule, not visit specific, but I may well be misunderstanding
Friday's decision means Prince Harry's security will remain outside the automatic, high level of protection which is provided for senior royals

The only people making a drama about this is H and M. Why make a big public announcement at all? Why not just turn up? No need then for taxpayer funded police protection.
Just making a song and dance about themselves. As usual.

And as we all know, they are no longer ‘senior royals’.

That was what they stepped back from, 6.5 years ago.

It would be nice if the children could reunite with their cousins. They’re caught up in something that’s not of their making.

Hear, hear.
