How many “revelations” has he made now? It looks to me like what he and his wife are doing is rationing the gossip out, morsel by morsel, to keep people interested. That suggests they’re being coached and maybe someone should look into this Omid Scobie character who seems to be deeply involved with them. I never had much sympathy for either of them – self pitying celebrity multimillionaire is not a good look – but what Harry is doing now is vile. He is publicly throwing his family under the bus while they are still grieving the recent loss of his grandfather. We all could make criticisms of our upbringing but unless you were actually molested, I think this is a pretty disgusting way to treat your own flesh and blood. I hope they take away his titles, his privileges and his inheritance.

For all the anger and disgust about Martin Bashir (he forged those bank statements for heavens sake rather than the weasel worded “mocked them up”) and the Saville-like failure of the Tony Hall inspired bbc to acknowledge let alone act on the blatant deception don’t forget that while Harry’s mother was in no small part deceived into granting the interview she then proceeded to deliver a truly historic and calculated tell-all performance.

Her son now shows every sign of welcoming if not positively seeking endless future opportunities to proclaim his unlikely victimhood to the world.

“Who destroyed Prince Harry ?” Himself.

Point of information. Late Tsarist attempts to introduce private ownership into the peasant communes did not – repeat not – “fail miserably”. What wrong-headed histories have you been reading? Why do you imagine there were so many “kulaks” for Stalin to murder had not the Stolypin reforms had some effect? Why do you imagine that the Tsarists had solved famine before the first war – only to see the Reds reintroduce it on a genocidal scale? Why do you imagine that Tsarist Russia could supply its own grain by the same point? How do you think they managed to export butter to the west? Why was the Rouble the strongest currency in Europe? Why was the Tsarist state the fourth largest economy in the world? Why, by 1916, were they producing enough shells to sustain a world conflict? Why by the same date did they have both Ottoman Turkey and Austria Hungary on the run? Don’t peddle these stupid, socialist myths and lies if you want to be taken seriously.

Harry’s a grown man. He walks a path of his own choosing. Let’s not rob him of agency by asking who else might be responsible. It is likely that in a pre-social age, none of this would be occurring. Harry would not believe his own BS or get the rock star treatment or find himself entangled with a B-list actress whose most discernible talent appears to be marinated in imagined victimhood.
William seems to have avoided the need for ongoing self-indulgence and “look at me” antics. Perhaps it’s his place in the succession line, perhaps it’s growing up and finding a partner who keeps him level-headed, maybe it’s just differences in personality. For all we know, Harry just wants to matter and since his odds of the throne are almost non-existent, he seeks attention in other ways.

We all know that at some point in the future, quite probably when the pair of them have wrested as much money as they can from Harry’s apparently tragic background and his spouse’s suicidal thoughts and the corporate sponsors have exhausted this particular seam of riches, they will have to deal with each other. Once or twice, it may have occurred to Megan that her husband is a bit thick. Conversely Harry may have had his own feelings that his wife is a little selfish. In the early part of any relationship when things are very wonderful and intense and especially if there is a sense of unity inspired by perceived opposition, the tendency is for couples to ignore the other’s modest defects. If the relationship is strong and founded on mutual respect, good manners and a shared purpose, these apparent shortcomings are surmountable. If not, those dormant criticisms emerge and provide seeds for disharmony and discontentment. In the case of H&M the question is which do we think is the more likely outcome?

If I were clever enough, I would draw a parallel with the Oedipus and Electra complexes. Harry is trying to kill (metaphorically) his father, and in Meghan has found a surrogate mother/lover, who, in turn, is more than willing to mother him. He will forever remain in a state of arrested development if he cannot become a man himself, on his own two feet. Meghan has a love-hate relationship with her father, but unable to express those emotions directly to him, instead projects and encourages Harry to kill his own family; then she can treat Harry as she would like to treat her father – as a child. A very real case of co-dependency.
Harry talked about “breaking the cycle”, he was referring to his own upbringing, but only the paternal side; Diana’s parental responsibilities conveniently forgotten and instead she being “pedastalled”. What Harry is actually doing is keeping the cycle going – copying his mother in adopting victimhood and sticking it to the Windsors. The “model son”.
Oh, and by the way, not drinking Monday to Friday and then drinking a week’s worth in one day at the weekend, is probably got more to do with joining the Army than with “stopping the pain” – methinks.
