America is finally tiring of Prince Harry

It must be a strange time to be Prince Harry. A year and a half ago, he was the most famous man in the world, thanks to the headline-grabbing publication of his autobiography Spare. Whether you thought it was brave, incisive and fascinating, or overwritten tawdry nonsense, it was hard not to have an opinion on both the book and its subject; Harry’s every movement and utterance was eagerly scrutinized. But an awful lot has happened since, not least the illnesses of his father and sister-in-law. Even his wife’s increasingly desperate-sounding America Riviera Orchard brand has overshadowed his own efforts to put himself in the spotlight.

I still say Meghan dumps him.

Prince Andrew, the King and the ‘siege of Royal Lodge’

The King has told Prince Andrew that after the Epstein controversy there are to be no more royal duties and no more living at his vast house in Windsor Great Park. But in an increasingly bitter stand-off, his brother refuses to budge

When the King, then Prince of Wales, met his brother, the Duke of York, at Birkhall in the weeks before their mother died in 2022, lunch was not on offer. The brothers’ conversation was perfunctory, with neither wishing to prolong the agonising encounter.

Charles had the unpleasant task of breaking the news to Andrew that there was no way back for him in terms of royal duties. The controversy over his friendship with a convicted sex offender, the American financier Jeffrey Epstein, was not going away and the Palace was preparing for its greatest transition in 70 years. Andrew became tearful during the exchange.

Harry and Meghan’s Nigeria tour is nothing but PR fodder

Prince Harry’s visit to London this week, to celebrate the tenth anniversary of the Invictus games, was largely overshadowed by the news that his father was ‘too busy’ to see his errant younger son. This may have been despite or perhaps because of the King’s more active public profile thanks to his positive response to his cancer treatment.

Why would they visit a country where Christians are routinely slaughtered?

However, no senior members of the royal family joined him at the service and it was revealed that the King was too busy to see Harry during his brief transatlantic visit.
