Harry and Meghan - OP updated with Threadbanned Users 4/5/21

He married Meaghan so quite simply anything is possible at this stage

It's clear to me that the stories about Harry such as the positive Colin Powell one posted above all happened before Meghan came on the scene in that they are almost universally pro-Harry, or excusing his behaviours when drunk, reeling out of night clubs, cavorting in the nude in LV, wearing a swastika, etc. These were Harry's halcyon days. So what happened to the positive PR Harry received?

I think the answer is that he started listening to Meghan - he seems easily led - and ditched the Royal Family's people handling his PR, unwittingly giving the role to Meghan. The slow motion, grand-piano-falling-off-the-cliff then occurred. Harry was simultaneously trying to play the piano as well as standing on the beach, trying to catch it.

Whoever is advising H&M on a communications front/PR has a thankless task, as it seems to me that Meghan writes the word salad press releases, articles, and arranges the photography. Harry would do well to drop her iPhone and MacBook into one of the myriad toilets in their mansion, and blame Archie.

He’s devoid of personality at this stage - simply a mouthpiece for what Meaghan wants to say

Is he at the useful idiot stage now I wonder? i.e. The organisers break the news and it all becomes a self-serving promotional exercise for them. Hands up who knew about these Legends of Aviation awards before the news Harry was to receive one broke? Me neither. If actual legends were getting such an award it wouldn't be internationl news. It's the kind of shindig/piss up/networking event where actual legends like Buzz Aldrin et al would be getting paid to attend in a quid quo pro. The kind of event where Musk, Bezos et al see it as a night out to pat themselves on the back whereas Harry would pay his way in because, lets be honest, his aviation legend status is pretty tenuous. Maybe he oblivious to people seeking to leverage his fame/notoriety for awareness/profits and will embarrass himself by attending. Maybe he knows all that anyway but is thristy for recognition, craves aggrandisement that he genuinely believes he is a living legend and is a deserving recipient. Either way - morto for ya Harry.

certainly, pitting one child against the other is a no no for sure.

however in saying that, it is an accurate statement.

harry would have been a brilliant king, he would probably have turned republicans to monarchists even.

still though, i bet he and meghan wake up every morning glad to have dodged that bullet.

Your comment is complete speculation. Its doesn't matter what Harry would be. He isn't heir. He will never be. His best life is lived with his kids and wife and not selling his birth family for $$ The man is a shell of his former self. Those who publicly support him don't have his best interests in mind. He is being used by everyone especially those who shout loudest in his favour. Its disgusting.

No, it came from William often saying to Diana that he didn't want to be king and Harry saying he would do the job. Diana nickname for Harry was ''GKH'' (Good King Harry).

I wonder why William didn't want to be King.

Yes they all believe he is an aviation legend. Despite all evidence in favour of actual living legends who are not honoured. They trawled the depths of possible candidates and somehow came up with Harry, Prince Harry, of no achievements of note whatsoever, but a large blank cheque at the waiting in the form if a non profit. Truly a legend. He will be very proud. Of something. That no one can quite define. Especially not Tim Peaks. Who likely will sit at home on Jan 19th content with his achievements in life quietly, asking for no recognition.

How old was William when he said he didn't want to be King?

What a tough decision. Will we induct the distinguished Air Force graduate, the fighter pilot and the test pilot who was Capcom for the moon landing, who was back up for Apollo 13 and who was a moon walker/LMP for Apollo 16 all before he was 37 or will we go with the 39 year old British Prince who trained to be a gunner on an Apache helicopter who has a cheque for us? 🤔

this is just conspiracy theorist nonsense really.

he's no shell of a man at all and absolutely is living his best life, how wouldn't he be when he is free of one of the biggest cults and grifts going.

he didn't sell anything of his family, he simply sold the truth and good on him, its about time the british monarchy was exposed for what it is.

oh he would have absolutely made a fantastic king though, no doubt about it, the modernisation the RF needed but threw away for better headlines from the likes of the scum and the daily mail.

ah well never mind, he is free free as a bird, enjoying his family, enjoying his life and their millions in the bank.

The monarchy is a cult and a grift but Harry would like totally have been a brilliant leader of the cult and the grift. 🤣

Does nobody else find it odd that Harry’s “award” or whatever it is suddenly emerged in a press release on 10 January? A bit of a late runner, isn’t he? It’s all a bit coincidental that he wasn’t selected as one of Sandhurst’s best, surely. Harry’s flying record is not easy to verify. The Palace PR machine would have been making it look pretty glowing - in reality, it’s rather vague.

I’d have thought Chris Hadfield would be on the list. Now, he is a legend.

Harry is a legend in his own mind; not in mine.

Jaysus, you'd swear he was forced into doing what he chose. Quit the blatant gaslighting/narrative building He wasn't cut off financially. He was always a multi millionaire. He said he wanted to become financially independent and cut off his funding. He is now, according to some, worth a good $120 million. $3 million a year for security? So long as he has a competent financial planner then he'll be good long term to cover security costs (i.e. making 3% on ones net worth a year is achievable/sustainable).

Due out on 18 January, this new book will be an interesting read and will, no doubt, also re-surface all Harry’s shenanigans around the time of the Queen’s passing.
