Harry and Meghan to step down as senior royals

I hate the Beatles... Am I finally not alone ?

Forgive if I fail to have much sympathy for a Prince who lost their mother. I'm sure he dried his tears with British banking notes. Life must have been real hard growing up in opulence after that.

These folks, the Royals, get way too much coverage.

Most as much as the Kar Klan!

I've been led adrift by a beautiful woman before. I get it. I predict at some point he will wake up.

'Bout when the $$$$ runs dry!

This morning in the Winnipeg Sun it was reported that Meaghan was disappointed in Harry's net worth or lack thereof. Mind you I think the source was the Brit media.

If we stop paying attention to these people they will fade into oblivion.

Herein lies the problem: we as a society won't. It sells papers and books so the heat and light are on them.

. . . disappointed in Harry's net worth or lack thereof. . . .

What was she expecting of an individual who had a high school education and whose only "paid" employment history was 10 years in the British Army?

Wonder if Harry called Camilla a honkey, or cracker?

"Shrill, adulterous harridan"?

That's the problem with marrying into old money... you have to stay on good terms with the old til they die...then you get the money. If not... cassé

Except the red-headed child wasn't "old money". Though his late mother came from a comfortable background, basically her brother got the family assets along with the title on that side of the family; anything that was in her estate were mostly the proceeds of a divorce settlement, which, though generous, wasn't "go f*** yourself, I'm set for life in the style to which I've become accustomed" money, especially divided down to a next generation. And though there may (or may not) be some form of inheritance with a paternal passing, the passage of the majority of that wealth is predetermined; only the man who would be King (and his presumptive heir) gets that.

Fair point. I was speaking in generalities ofcourse.

The concept of generational wealth is vastly different between the American "tycoon" or "celebrity" and British aristocracy; and the Duchess is finding out rather quickly.

It's kind of a tie race who I care less about, the monarchy or the Kardashians.

Title seems a little misleading but still seems strange that Prince Harry is even discussing it during his conversations.

I do a reference check at the grocery lineup, if I know more than 20% of the people on the magazine covers, I am paying to much attention to social media

Nice of him to chat but interesting indeed since he no longer represents the Crown.

As the public face of the Invictus Games, it's not unreasonable to engage with groups in the area of a future competition.
