TFF!!! Money does make people hypocrites!!

So much for going to therapy for whatever hang-ups from the past, eh Harry? A cool million dollars and dinner with ARod and Jlo can cure all the blues, man.

This one is a 'dandy'! Definitely straight outta Compton!

Am curious to know how much they were compensated for their departure from their leisurely travel plans.

Frankly, I think Meghan is a breath of fresh air in the Windsor line.  She can be pretty hot!  I wonder what Harry will use as a last name, now that he is now longer a practicing senior royal?

Likely a *princely* sum to insure the 'skeletons in the royal closet' remain a royal secret from any 'tell-all' interview offers. Heh-heh!

Never say never though. After all, look at how easily Harry did away with his 'environmental' concerns when offered a million bucks by a major oil/energy investor.

I bet he will sit on some Boards and do a little endorsing.   Kind of behind the scenes type stuff.   Not too much to embarrass his grandmother.   Just enough to put aside $500,000,000 or so.

Jone, have you ever even been a prince? I've personally had
all sorts of actual experience, very important experience!
1. I actually saw the tower of London
2. Listened to the Beatles.
3. Took a photo of Big Ben

Sir Paul, I'll have you know is a knight. Now I need to be treated

If he (they) haven't yet already. I'm sure these two have had 'hundreds' on advice, offers, suggestions, recommendations, etc. Even before they made 'The Decision' (Can anyone say, *LeBron James*?).

Maybe Harry can do those late night hair plug commercials as I heard he's getting a bit concerned of going bald. Meghan is interested in doing 'voice-overs'. Like Disney need another 'Goofy' shrieker. If they do, all I can say is, they better ask how she's doing everyday because she's very touchy and fragile about that. If her feelings are hurt, they may move to Mexico...

Hey.  Did you watch the movie, Yesterday?   It was a gas.  Especially if you are a Beatles fan, like me.   Even if you're not a Beatles fan it is still a good flick.   My kids liked it.   And they had no idea who Ringo is (was).

I watched it twice in the theaters and at least 4 times at home.
Angel Eyes watched it twice with me.

Love the ‘Let It Be’ scene. Besides just watching Lily James is worth the price of admission.

Shoulda known.

Yeah.  I'm on my third go on it.   The effervescent Miss James stole the show.   I understand Sir Paul went to a theater and watched it with the crowd.   Can you imagine seeing that movie and then seeing him sitting behind you?   In a way, it introduces these songs to a whole 'nother generation.

Himesh Patel sold that movie with his performance though. Superb casting. He wasn't as riveting as Rami Malek in his role as Freddie Mercury, but both are equally artistic...

IINM, it should still be Windsor unless he wants to change it - again as happend in 1917 from the original Saxe-Coburg and Gotha, due to anti-German sentiment.

That would only enhance your DAFTNESS..

Pray tell us the connection of Harry and Meghan to a BELL that isn't even in use at the mo ...?

After, the split of his parents where did Harry spend half his time ?  Was it London, Manchester (  :rolleyes: ) or nr. Tetbury - a small town 15 mins from me ?


Which pubs did he go to and where was he banned ?


Looking forward to you trying to find this on 'Google' ..

Harry was banned from the Ragged Cot ...   I knew the landlord ...   His regular was The Rattlebone at Sherston


In those days the press would have left him alone and he was able to lead a relatively normal existence ..

Difference between Hugh Grant and Harry? Huge paid much less for his BJ than Harry did/will. Quality of the service provider - much of a muchness.....


I'm a royalist but to be frank, I think Harry has milked the public sympathy of "My mum died when I was young" more than enough. If you take that away from his speaking engagements, there doesn't seem to be much else of substance....

Touche', in full agreement with you.

I can't imagine how many millions of 'young boys' in the world who had to live through far harder days brought about by the rape and murder of their respective mothers at the hands of the colonists. So cry me a river, Harry!

Harry has no independent source of income.  He has trust income (half his mother's divorce settlement), which likely is creditor proofed from any future divorce action.  See Andrew as an example.  Diana only received a settlement because Charles could liquidate assets from his Duchy of Cornwall income.

I find it rather ironic that Harry and Meghan's future wealth will come from speeches/endorsements/activities not in the U.K. or in commonwealth countries, but in the "anti monarchist" USA.  I guess those royal titles mean something there after all.

Even with the speaking engagements, there's not much of substance there.  He's a dim bulb who married a grifter.

moby is correct above about Harry's protection from the press in the UK.  Once Harry is no longer officially a member of the royal family (i.e., no royal duties), a lot of the "fixing" courtiers now do may disappear, and his foibles will be fair game.

This post was composed without the aid of google.

After the fall of communism, the biggest mistake Boris Yeltsin's regime made was not to disband the KGB altogether. Instead it changed its name to the FSB and, to many observers, morphed into a gangster organisation, eventually headed by master criminal Vladimir Putin. - Gerard Batten

I was doing a Moby, claiming expertise because of some lame connection
like a photo of Big Ben and having been to London for a few days. I know
nothing and care even less about Palace intrigue in the UK.

So yes, it sailed over your head.
