Sympathy for Harry anyone?

None.

Im not sure the photos are going to be taken in the thick of the action. Either way we cant know for sure and not really really relevant to the present situation

No absolutely none at all. I didn’t read “Spare” but enough exerpts from it to think putting such personal family things out there for the rest of the world to read utterly unforgivable, and I’m usually a soft touch and can see both sides. Well named ginger whinger.

Nope.

It’s a No from me as well.

Everything they say and do is performative.

Never showing a photo of Archie and Lillibet where their faces can be seen has made them targets of the paparazzi; it's as if
H & M are baiting them.

Can you imagine how much just one picture of those children's faces would fetch? The game they're playing appears to be back firing and more worrying could well back fire on their children too.

Does anyone know where he is actually staying, now he’s in London?

The Dorchester, Claridges maybe?

He is so like Edward the 8th.
A spoiled sybarite who then came under the influence of a divorced woman who saw the main chance.
While I don’t believe Wallis Simpson thought she could change the Monarchy,she thought she could change other things to her advantage.
I think Meghan also thought she could bring about change and become more popular than existing members of the family.When she realised she couldn’t she threw her toys out of the pram, thinking she could do better.
I don’t believe she has.

Crikey- a lot of disparaging speculation here against a divorced woman, ie Megahn. Let's not forget that Charles is a divorced man- married to a divorced woman and conducted an affair with current wife whilst married to previous wife a nd did not tell her about his paramour at time of engagement or marriage.

Families are complicated and estrangement painful for all parties.

I m remembering a photo of lilibet which was said to be a friend s child. And all the stories about whether the bump was real.
Hard to know what to believe.
But I have no sympathy for them after that hurtful interview and the book.
As someone has said Anne was also a spare but has lived her life with dignity and is the hardest working royal. She protected her children from the press but didn’t hide them away and make a big drama out of it.

I’m sure there must be a Travelodge or Premier Inn nearby

Harry yes, Meghan no….

Read 'Spare' - imagine your son says what he says in it. Not really possible to trust again. These were not lies and exaggerations said in the heat of the moment but coldly published for gain.

As Monica said Harry was in the army, another institution. He did well in those settings. But as many know life outside of those settings is very different. I think he is a bit of a lost soul who wants to know that his family cares. It would be good to see his family support him. Yes there's always a risk that he will write another tell all book but that is likely to be because he feels rejected.

The Royal family did everything they could to keep him and his family in the fold It was the Sussexes who slammed the door in everybody's faces and then did the unforgivable thing in spilling all the intimate dealings of their private lives into books and tv shows.

Since then, as their monetary pulling power has gone down and those initially wanting to do business with them have pulled out because the products they offer are below an acceptable standard and they are so difficult to deal with, they have turned back to the Royal family because they may need a baleout.

Prince Harry is currently behaving like a common tease with his children as the bait in the trap. He says he and all his family will come over to the UK, then he says it depends on the security he is offered and he demands a level of security he has already been told is not available. He is offered secure accommodation at Buck House, but he won't say yes, and he won't say no, and when the offer is withdrawn he says he wants it.

If i was a member of the RF I would not meet or speak to PH unless I had a recorder recording every word that passed between us .

Sometimes the most loving family has to walk away from a beloved member because their behaviour is so damaging to everyone else and the rest of the family is suffering as a result. That is where the RF is now.

No real sympathy for Harry, BUT I do have empathy for anyone, public figure or not, hounded by the media.

He seems to seek media coverage, though. Very strange.

It’s just been announced that Harry has lost his phone hacking case against the Daily Mail

Harry has lost the court case against ANL!

He's going to have to find a way to pay his share of the almost £50 million of costs!

Ouch, that will hurt. I feel a bit sorry for him now, 50 million £ is alot of money to find. He seems to wander into mishaps. Also it's very sad that his young family are almost estranged from their grandpa Charles. Very sad for the children, as they won't have any young memories of their grandpa (King) Charles at all at this rate. Burning bridges, and boats comes to mind.

Along with every other person who took their case forward.

Be sure your lies will find you out. He swore under oath he didn’t know Mail journalist Charlotte Griffiths. Then the Mail KC produced text messages between him and her, Charlie G String, which proved a very cosy relationship.

The Mail journalists were queueing up to testify against him.

Well deserved.

I wonder if they might have stood a better chance if they had not been linked to Harry who has been shown to have lied eg in knowing Charlotte Griffiths and goodness knows what else.

Harry needs to move forward with his life and get over all the 'poor me' stuff. He could do so much good for his charities if he just stopped being the centre of his own universe.
No sympathy here.

Actually Anne was never the “Spare”, Andrew was!

Margaret was the Spare, Harry is the Spare. All three Spares are/were troubled and troublesome!

I very much doubt it, this is the third media outlet H and the others pursued, the other two cases were won.

That will be split 7 ways and who knows Mr E John might pick up the entire bill
