Are the Sussexes sucking up to the Queen by doing commonwealth work?

The Queen and Meghan The Duchess Of Sussex open the Mersey Gateway Bridge today, the bridge goes between Runcorn and Widnes in Cheshire.

Since they’ve been living in North America for most of 2020, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex have participated in several video conferences on behalf of the Queen’s Commonwealth Trust. While they were forced to step down as “ambassadors” to the QCT, Harry and Meghan did keep their honorary administrative positions with the QCT even with the Sussexit. I’ve complained about their QCT Zoom calls before, not because of whatever racist sh-t the royal reporters say, but because I think Meghan and Harry are being used as Inclusion Props for a racist, colonialist system, a system which is still massively racist and hateful towards Meghan.

In July, Harry got into “trouble” during one of the Zoom discussions because he admitted a deep, dark dirty secret: racism exists, and to move forward and become better people, we need to acknowledge our past and acknowledge that systemic racism and systemic white privilege exist (I’m paraphrasing, but that’s the essence of what he said). And for that, British tabloids were freaking the f–k out and demanding that Harry be stripped of his title (because he said racism exists). Still, he and Meghan remained with the QCT. And now the Sun has a hot tip that M&H are actually sucking up to the Queen:

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are trying to build bridges with the Queen by gushing about the Commonwealth, it has been claimed today. The Duke and Duchess of Sussex previously said the Commonwealth’s past must be acknowledged as they have become increasingly outspoken after quitting the Royal Family.

In a video chat from their LA home in July, the couple urged the public to get involved in “uncomfortable” conversations. Harry, 35, said: “When you look across the Commonwealth, there is no way that we can move forward unless we acknowledge the past. So many people have done such an incredible job of acknowledging the past and trying to right those wrongs, but I think we all acknowledge there is so much more still to do.”

But last week, Meghan, 39, gushed over the Commonwealth, saying “it’s an honour to continue the Queen’s legacy.” The couple also spoke adoringly of their “grandmother” the Queen, 94, just weeks after tension with the royal family was revealed in explosive biography Finding Freedom.

A source today told Sunday People: “The Queen is fiercely protective of the Commonwealth. She wants her work to carry on through younger family members when she’s gone. It feels like Harry and Meghan are finally trying to build bridges as I think despite their popularity in certain quarters, it has dawned on them they need the Royal Family more than it needs them.”

Meanwhile, Ingrid Seward, editor of Majesty magazine, the couple had “made a fool of themselves” with their previous comments.

[From The Sun]

“It has dawned on them they need the Royal Family more than it needs them.” LMAO. These salty white peeps really think they’re doing something, right? “Harry will come back to us one day, he’ll abandon his wife and child and we’ll take him back, but only if he begs!” And now it’s “Harry and Meghan are doing good work because they desperately need the approval of some bitter AF racists and colonialists!” Don’t get me wrong, after reading Finding Freedom, it was VERY clear that Harry and Meghan were not looking to burn bridges with the Queen or Charles. But “not wanting to burn bridges” is not the same thing as “desperately needing to be back in the royal fold.” And no, H&M don’t need the Windsors more than the Windsors need them. I’m not sure the Windsors realize that though.

    I just rolled my eyes so hard I nearly knocked myself out.

    • Yvette says:

      @Andrew’s Nemesis … LOL! Great line! And I agree. 🙂

      For me and my eye roll, it’s like witnessing some twisted version of tough love where if they (the British Press via Royal Aides via Royal Courtiers) bully, threaten, and demean Harry enough, he’ll come to his senses and admit his sin of marrying ‘Commonwealth-ish Girl;’ thereby offending the sensibilities of pure blood English folk. “Of course we’ll forgive you, Harry Lad!” but first you must crawl across this field of broken glass whilst wearing a salted jumper and proclaiming every foot of the way “I’m sorry, William! I never should have left my seat at your feet nor removed my protective shield from Cate the Great!”

      No offense intended to our British Peeps on this Blog. It’s just sad to see elements of the British press attempting to bully Harry back after bullying him to leave … well, not really, as they were really trying to bully Harry into leaving Meghan or to bully ‘her’ hard enough that she would leave both Harry and the Realm. It’s scary to think about how hard they went after Meghan while she was pregnant, and the sinister indications thereof.

    Bizzare post really. Harry set up the organisation himself

    • Snuffles says:

      You’re right. Harry DID create the organization and presented it to the Queen as a gift. Do he’s just continuing HIS work with HIS organization.

      As complicated as his relationship is with his family, they’re still his family. Just because he hasn’t completely cut them off doesn’t mean it’s a strategic move to cling to The Firm or that he thinks he “needs them more than they need him.”

      I swear, the tabloids can’t see the royals as anything but a business relationship. I personally believe that Harry hopes that someday he can interact with his family as JUST FAMILY and have nothing to do with the business part. And that includes being financially independent and doing his own independent work. No longer competing for funding with his brother or begging daddy for money or living in his grandmother’s house.

      Maybe a few years from now they can get to that point and accept that Harry is his own man.

    • notasugarhere says:

      No, he didn’t. Go back and look at the founding documents and pdfs. He was invited in early in the process to be part of it, but he wasn’t one of the founders or the driving force behind the creation of it.

    • Abena Asantewaa says:

      QCT was set up by Harry, when he was made Youth Ambassador by the queen, in honour of the queen on her birthday, and they have been doing effective work since. The queen is the patron. That explains why she could not strip them off the Presidency of QCT. The Sun, cannot bring themselves to praise the sussexes, so even a kind compliment from the sussexes is turned into something bad. The sussexes can never do right in the eyes of the british media, so I think H&M should just ignore the media, and must stay in the good books of the queen and Charles, they are the ones who matter.

    • notasugarhere says:

      Harry didn’t set it up.

      You can find the information in a PDF if you search

      Queen’s Commonwealth Trust
      Annual Report For the seventeen month period ended 31 March 2018

      ‘In their time, Her Majesty’s Silver and Diamond Jubilee Trusts were established with a clear remit: to support, encourage and enable young people across the Commonwealth to do more of what so often they do best: helping others. As long-planned, those Trusts are approaching the end of their remarkable programmes of work, which will have left a lasting legacy for countless numbers of people and communities right across the Commonwealth.

      Two years ago, in anticipation of the recent Commonwealth Heads of Government Meeting in London, The Queen determined to launch a different venture which, while complementing the outstanding achievements of the other Trusts established in her name, would be intended to extend long into the future as an enduring legacy of the association of the Head of the Commonwealth to its young people.

      Having then recently celebrated her 90th birthday, Her Majesty saw no reason to relax in promoting this vision of The Queen’s Commonwealth Trust. Fired with an ambition to help young people to rival his grandmother, Prince Harry soon accepted the role of President. What follows is The Queen’s Commonwealth Trust’s account of what has already been done to respond to the call of entrenching the legacy in recognition of The Queen’s lifetime of service to the Commonwealth and its young people, to safeguard its future for good.’

    • Sunday says:

      THANK YOU.

      Maybe, just maybe, Harry and Meghan actually believe in the mission of this organization and see that they have a real opportunity to encourage equity, racial justice, and positive change within the commonwealth. They are two people who actually want to walk the walk, and know that the white noise (an apt phrase in more ways than one) generated by tabloids as a result of their work with QCT is a small price to pay, a gnat buzzing in their ear, compared to the real impact that people in commonwealth countries (specifically people of color) will benefit from as a result of this unprecedented level of honesty and support from members of the royal family. Any PR halo that benefits the royal family is secondary (if that) to how their work actually impacts the real people of the commonwealth.

    • notasugarhere says:

      Think through the timeline.

      April 2016
      Queen’s 90th birthday

      16 Nov 2016
      QCT docs filed 16 Nov 2016 with the Queen’s private secretary, Geidt as part of it.

      early 2017
      Queen’s Commonwealth Trust announced

      March 2018
      First report (17 month report) issued which includes the surprise info that Harry has accepted the position of President of QCT

      April 2018
      Harry publicly named President of QCT

      The Queen was going to found this, because she’s obsessed with The Commonwealth and her ‘legacy’ within it. Geidt arranges all of it, sets up the documents, incorporates it in Nov 2016 with no mention of Harry. Yet.

      What happened between April 2016 and Nov 2016? Harry met Meghan. Someone he knew was 1) the One and 2) would support him in getting the hell out of the BRF if things went south.

      By early September 2016 he was already telling staff to get ready, start preparing, she’s the one. Mid-September he was at Balmoral for his birthday party. May have shared news of Meghan there, getting family prepared to meet her. End of Sept, he had NottCott repainted to her specs. News of them dating was outed end of October. November, Queen’s office files paperwork to officially create QCT.

      I think bringing Harry into QCT was the Queen’s attempt to keep him around, to get him engaged in a massive project close to her heart. ‘Look, see, there’s plenty of work to go around, you are important to me, I won’t let your brother meddle with your work on this project of mine, please don’t think about leaving’.

  3. Alexandria says:

    Move along…Just a crazy Seward post while ignoring Andrew the real fool and criminal.

    • NatureLover says:

      @ Alexandria, yup, move along people. Can’t talk about pedo and the fact that the FBI wants to talk to him as they asked several weeks ago and not a peep.

  4. Edna says:

    That’s some serious fan fiction…lol. Will these tabloids ever stop with this nonsense? Leave them be. They’ve left and they’re not coming back. And Ingrid Stewart can suck lemons, the old bat. H&M didn’t abandon any of their other patronages, so why should they abandon QCT?

    How about maybe, just maybe, H&M like working with Commonwealth youth and enjoy the interaction and exchange of ideas? QCT aligns with their beliefs and goals:
    “The Queen’s Commonwealth Trust is a growing network of young changemakers across the Commonwealth. A platform where smart ideas and insights are shared, to show that change can be brought about by anyone, anywhere. A place that sparks optimism and inspiration, where more and more people feel motivated and confident to step up and take positive action.
    The Trust’s vision is a world where young people are equal partners in driving change. QCT champions, funds and connects young leaders who are working hard to change the world.”

    • NatureLover says:

      @ Edna, yes, it is true fan fiction, as they will continue to hound these two until the end of time. There will be some breaks as when TQ or Philip dies, when Charles becomes king, yet once they step foot on mother England, they will be out wanting more blood than possible as we are certain that for events such as this will warrant a trip. Though given the TQ is healthier than her mother was, she could live another 5-7 years.

    • Tealie says:

      Ingrid was friends, and still is best friends in fact with Cressidas mum she is still bitter that Cressida didn’t get to marry Harry. She will always write puff pieces to improve Cressidas image saying that they belong together she didn’t think H and M were going to last I thought he would get back with Cressida.

  5. Priscila Bezerra-Fischer says:

    On their way out, they stated clearly they would continue to work on charities and Commonwealth. They are just doing what they said they would IMO.

    and you know, it is completely possible to try and keep things friendly with your family after leaving the family business. I think it is bizarre to behave as if Harry leaving UK is the same as he never speaking with his grandmother again ( why they use the words in quotes? TQ IS Harry grandmother!)…

    I think the great effort NOT to burn bridges with TQ and Charles was FF.

  6. ABritGuest says:

    What was so annoying about the commonwealth discussion is that Harry’s comment about need to acknowledge the past was echoed by the others on the call from Barbados and Nigeria and some leading Caribbean politicians. Instead the usual critics had to centre the white lady and her feelings& create a fake storm that they had insulted her ‘beloved Commonwealth’. Just another example of how you can’t have a mature discussion about colonialism& empire in Britain.

    Funny thing is when Charles or William have to have the same discussion in a few years because these calls of recognition will not go away. Then the press will call it trailblazing or groundbreaking.

    Bit early to say if they desperately need to be in the royal family so much. Meghan survived 36 years without their resources & Arthur Edwards wouldn’t be crying asking Harry to return because William & Catherine can’t do it all if they need the Firm more. I do think they were emphasising that they are still family though with reference to Lilibet as grandmother

  7. RoyalBlue says:

    my thought is the bridge between house sussex and cambridge is well and truly burnt to the ground to a fine crisp. the only possibility of it being rebuilt involves putting in a lot of work and therapy, but it would take another miracle of fatima to make that happen.

    but the bridges between houses sussex, clarence and buckingham are still running as expected. i believe communication still flows between the parties and support is still being provided and as such the sussexes have to walk a fine line with what they say about them.

    • notasugarhere says:

      This leak reads like an unhappy W&K, trying to get Commonwealth work removed from Harry and Meghan through tabloid pressure. Not that W&K want to do the work themselves of course, but they don’t want Harry and Meghan being popular in The Commonwealth.

      • 809Matriarch says:

        @ notasugarhere: Bingo! Hit the nail on the head! William has been wanting Harry’s commonwealth position for himself. He was reportedly upset about Harry getting it. Not that he wanted to do any work or anything. And we all know he is bored with talk about racism.

      • Royalblue says:

        i would not be surprised by that. In fact, I think you may be onto something, and I wonder why the position went to Harry and not William in the first place, seeing that Liz lobbied for Charles to get it next. Why bypass the FFK. That in itself seemed punitive and I could see a possible source of jealousy be as a result of this.

      • notasugarhere says:

        That’s why the fan fiction up above about how the QCT was founded needs to be examined. Harry didn’t found the QCT, not according to the paperwork and the Trust’s official reports.

        Harry had worked with some of the Queen’s Commonwealth entities before, like the youth prize. He might have been involved prior in some fashion, but he wasn’t named president of QCT until 17 months after the Trust was created.

        I’m sure William was incandescent with rage when Harry was named the President of the QCT in April 2018. William would have expected to be named to a prominent position with the QCT. Instead, the Queen named Harry.

        All the more reason for W&K’s camp to be spinning this false narrative, that Harry and Meghan are only doing it to kiss up. To try to turn public opinion against Harry and Meghan doing Commonwealth work. Then in waltz W&K to ‘save’ the QCT after they remove Harry and Meghan.

      • notasugarhere says:

        RoyalBlue, the Queen’s Commonwealth Trust is a charity set up to do work in Commonwealth countries. Harry is President, Meghan is Vice President.

        Charles is the defacto/ceremonial ‘elected’ Head of The Commonwealth of Nations itself. IMO that was only done because the Queen lobbied for it, and the members gave it to him under pressure. They are free to re-vote at any time and remove Charles from that position.

      • Royalblue says:

        @nota I believe W&K will not be accepted by the membership of the QCT if they are appointed the head of the QCT, as the sussexes have formed such a close bond with the group. Didn’t M&H do an engagement with them on the farewell visit? It would have to take almost a catastrophic act on the sussexes part for them to both be removed, and the cambridges accepted by the membership.

        When it comes to the commonwealth itself, peoples’ memories are long and when it’s Wills’ turn to lead the commonwealth they will reject him.

        (we were thinking along similar lines and I was typing this whilst you wrote your reply above, so some repetition)

      • notasugarhere says:

        The Queen’s former private secretary is chair of the Trustees. That is a power position, regardless of how many of the hired staff might like Harry and Meghan. Note ‘hired staff’ vs. chair of the Trustees. There are no guarantees, moving forward, as to which royals will be involved with QCT.

      • PrincessK says:

        But l think that their positions in the QCT almost demand that they should make occasional visits to Commonwealth.

      • Tealie says:

        @nota Yeah basically you got it. Hey don’t plan on doing any of the work themselves they just want to crumble Harry and Meghan’s projects and cut off their support.

    • NatureLover says:

      @ RoyalBlue, I agree with your sentiments but I don’t agree about the fine line about what is said. I believe that H has the utmost love and respect for TQ, but for his relationship with his father, I am uncertain but I do believe that Charles is very supportive of Harry and Meghan, in fact I think Charles truly cares for Meghan and knows that H&M won’t be childish as Limpy is about seeing his grandchildren, as we have often seen on display by the petty people, of W&K.

      • Tealie says:

        @naturelover Hmmm. I think Harry has moved on from Charles. He was the only one opening the door to forgive his father and trying to accept Camilla and this is how he’s been re paid.
        William was barely speaking to Charles before the collusion smear campaign started and they had an extremely strained relationship, and has always had a non-existent one with Camilla. Spending most of his time over at the Middleton camp. I think this was a real stab in the back for Harry, who thought his father was finally becoming a better man. Charles kingship is going to be an extremely lonely position because William sure isn’t supporting him.

    • Tealie says:

      Therapy won’t be able to remove whatever evil, jealous demons are living in Wait and William there’s no point. I would rather they just move on with a clean break and raise their own healthy family rather than trying to bind together tethered strings. Let the royals crumble themselves.

  8. heygingersnaps says:

    I’m not sure if the brf actually believes this “It has dawned on them they need the Royal Family more than it needs them.” but I won’t be surprised if they (willnot and kannot, petty betty, etc) believe this pr/push.
    For most people the british empire was not all fluff and roses, it’s rooted on slavery, brutality, killing and theft to say the least and to ignore that does not take that fact away.
    They cannot even acknowledge their privilege or the horrors that resulted from that empire otherwise they would be striving to address the inequalities that still persists to this day but they won’t because they still continue to benefit from it.

  9. aquarius64 says:

    The fact that the Sussexes are still with the QCT is proof the BRF needs them more. The deal in Sussexit was not to trash the queen, Charles.

    • Amy Too says:

      Exactly. The whole article could be written with the opposite spin. New article:

      ‘The Queen “sucks up to” Harry and Meghan because she know she needs them more than they need her. A source says, “The Queen is fiercely protective of the Commonwealth. She wants her work to carry on through younger family members when she’s gone,” and Harry and Meghan are happy to oblige. Meghan recently affirmed, “it’s an honour to continue the Queen’s legacy,” insisting the gracious couple are still willing to help Her Majesty when it comes to the Commonwealth, as they know how badly she needs them on this.’

      • Sid says:

        And let’s be blunt. The Queen and Charles want Meghan’s face on the QCT and to show to the mostly Black and Brown Commonwealth. Yeah I said it. These people know what they are doing when they want to know.

      • Tealie says:

        @sid well said it’s about the optics they know the racism has made them look so bad to the Commonwealth and are trying to limit the Damage by keeping a what as less patronising and associated imperialistic ‘brown’ face on it. Although I don’t think W&K, they seem to think they are the face an can discuss anything. You can tell that they’re the sort of people that say someone once looked at them weird because they’re wearing the wrong nail polish and equivalent that too someone experiencing racism 🙄.

  10. SJR says:

    The tabloids and gossip pages are going to keep inventing, changing, stirring the bs forever.
    It’s how they make their money.

    I really think the BRF is gonna be hurting when Liz goes.
    Charles, William and Harry are just a hot mess and out of date.

  11. kate says:

    I’ve always thought the commonwealth was a funny concept in modern age. Let’s be real, the commonwealth is comprised of countries that the british empire colonized and utilized to their own advantage. A prince from that monarchy urging people in the countries of those commonwealth to speak out against tyranny and injustice is a little ironic…especially when those countries and people have received less help from the British empire then they have given to that family. I’ll say it again, Harry and Meghan need to disengage completely from the commonwealth and move on with their lives. Everything and anything they do will be colored by that family. Harry, realize you grew up incredibly astronomically privileged and if you want to con’t to do good, then shake the confines of your privilege and family and pave your own path.

    • OriginalLala says:

      yep, I agree. Look I love that H&M are speaking about these issues, but it’s a bit hard to hear coming from a prince whose family and ancestors were the driving force of colonial policies meant to strip other countries of power and subjugate their peoples. Their message would be far stronger if they completely walked away from that racist, misogynist and classist institution.

      • Tealie says:

        @Lala i agree lana it’s hard to hear but it’s the best alternative, it’s not like they’re going to abolish the Commonwealth (unless the countries leave) and I don’t want it to be ruled by dumb and dumberella or sausage fingers.

    • ennie says:

      please, he is supporting of his family and his father is next in line. In one way or the other he will support them. Press would love if he burned every bridge, and are selling them as so.

    • notasugarhere says:

      The Commonwealth is much broader than former colonies. It is an economic union where less than 1/3 of the member states have any tie to the UK monarchy. Once the Queen has passed, they will swiftly re-vote and remove Charles as their defacto/ceremonial Head.

    • BnLurkN4eva says:

      I disagree. Things are not always so black and white as to think that making a clean break from something magically changes everything, or even sends a particular message, especially with these two.

      Harry can’t run away from who he is and he’s not trying to, good for him. Instead he is working to change the way people like him have previously engaged with others in the past and currently. He is acknowledging how things were/are and is making it clear that’s not how things should be and doing his part to be a part of that change. I think sometimes our expectation of how to move forward to improve things are a little unrealistic. Harry can’t change the BRF or what they are/were about, he can only change how he operates and if he and the organization believes he’s useful, why not be of use?

      If H/M cut all ties including severing relationships with his family completely and ending their patrons responsibilities, what message will that send? Will that say they are committed to their humanitarian endeavors, or that they are two irresponsible people who can’t be trusted to finish what they started? You tell me, what would the narrative be if they walked away from any or all of the organizations for which they are patrons?

    • BnLurkN4eva says:

      @notasugarhere, no. It’s in reply to 11.

      • notasugarhere says:

        Thanks for responding. It reads as a great response to #15 too. Wait, i see you just clarified that below.

  12. Sofia says:

    It’s Ingrid Seward so who’s surprised really?

  13. Amy Bee says:

    The Royal Family, aides and British media are delusional. Harry and Meghan’s statement in January outlined their willingness to still work for the Queen and Commonwealth so I don’t know where press got that they wanted to burn bridges with the Queen and the Commonwealth. Harry was involved in the forming of the QCT so why would he want to leave it. Furthermore, if the press had watched the entire video, it starts with Harry and the CEO of the QCT saying how well the last conversation, i.e. the video about systemic racism, was received and that they were very satisfied with how it went. Seeing that interaction told me Harry stands by what he said and is not concerned with how it was perceived by the press. The Queen’s view of the Commonwealth and Harry’s are very different and I believe Harry’s interaction with people of the Commonwealth has helped shape his his views on it. He comes down on the side of the people of the Commonwealth and not the British establishment who sees the Commonwealth as merely a replacement for Empire.

  14. ennie says:

    They weren’t stripped of their causes, which I think they love to support, they still support the queen , and they said so from the beginning. They didn’t leave because they did not want to work.
    I bet Meghan is happy to continue doing this, let alone Harry.
    So, it is fitting for them to continue doing some work, maybe not tours, but they’ll find a way, for now, with the pandemic, it will be just online meetings anyway.

  15. Nina Simone says:

    “Grandmother” needs to spearhead reparations to former colonies and return our stolen artifacts.

    I like H&M but they can’t have it both ways. You’re either stringently anti racist which means truly dismantling these imperialist, racist and colonialist structure or paying lip service which does nothing. And that means being critical of the British Monarchy and yes the Queen. And since they won’t do that, I’d rather they stop their new “anti racist” agenda. Only a whole system solution can fix a whole system problem.

    But I suspect they won’t. Of course this will take going against everything they’ve built, the privilege etc. But that’s what we are asking other white people to do. Otherwise, step aside and let the true dismantlers do the work. And don’t give me that “Meghan is a POC woman.” Yes she is but she has also enjoyed proximity to whiteness for most of her adult life- the privileges and benefits that come with that and knowingly married into a bastion of white supremacy. So if her and Harry are unwilling to call truly the crown out, then I do not support this crusade.

    • ennie says:

      But you are not singling them out, right? there are plenty of countries which have had colonies or stolen artifacts, nor are Meghan and Harry the sole ambassadors of the CW. They participate in one side of the CW, the CW youth, as far as I understand.
      There are CW ambassadors and representatives from every country, which I suspect, participate voluntarily because it is beneficial to them in some way, as they are independent counties, remnants of colonies, but independent.
      They have not the sole responsibility, nor are they to blame for all the sordid history colonial times have.
      It sounds like avocados and Meghan. Everyone in Mexico eats guacamole, it creates thousands of jobs, but Meghan causes the drought, and all those problems?, yeah, right.

    • BnLurkN4eva says:

      See my response to #11. There’s this saying, don’t throw out the baby with the bathwater. Everyone doesn’t need to take the same approach to get to the same destination because everyone is coming from different places. Meghan may not have had the same experiences as her mother, but she’s had her experiences, no need to devalue them. Throughout the generations of various activism, there’s been a mix of the radical movements working along side the more moderate movements. Meghan and Harry doesn’t have to burn it down to be effective, that’s not their way of doing things and you don’t get to decide someone else activism, just yours.

  16. Lowrider says:

    Harry should remove or stopping using with all associations with the BRF. He has Endeavor Fund,Invictus, Sentable, Travalyst and his charity with Meghan to focus on.

    • MsIam says:

      But that was never his or Meghan’s wish to drop all associations with the family. They still wanted to do work in the Commonwealth countries. That was forced on them by Sussexit. Once the queen passes he and Meghan may decide to stop all associations..

    • L4frimaire says:

      I think we should leave Harry and Meghan to decide what organizations they want to stick with or drop. They have already left so much behind when they left the UK. They are committed to these organizations and the people behind it, and honestly, I don’t understand why people want them to drop these particular organizations. Look at the people on the Zoom calls, they are young, diverse, actually accomplish things, very different politically from the racist, backwards Royals. They know working thought the trust and H&M gives them a lot more resources. Whatever nonsense the Sun or Seward is spewing is just wound-licking from the thrashing they got this weekend because they tried to attack Meghan and are seeing for themselves that the Sussexes are moving on from the Royal bubble.

  17. MsIam says:

    Yet another ridiculous article from the Sun. As authorized by KP. Wasn’t that Arthur photographer begging Harry to come back? Now the story is that H&M need the royal family. For what? Why would H&M want to get involved with that mess. I bet as soon as the queen is gone they will completely walk away. Then watch all the howling about Harry “abandoning his family just when they need him the most!”.

    Good Lord the RR are desperate, especially Ms. Ingrid. Without William leaking about them every 5 seconds H&M have gone dark except for the times when they want to highlight their work. You can tell the bitter Bessie’s in the British press are floundering.

    I’m sure this was by watton(I wont click). The idiot is in a predicament now that he has no access to leaks about them. This story and that one claiming Archie will need permission to marry & that he ‘might’ get a title after Charles is king makes the firm look pathetic and weak.
    They are clearly losing sleep thinking about the sussex next moves especially the keenbridges who cant preplan to hijack coverage by scheduling events the same day as them.
    Come November, I expect alot of these rrs to lose their jobs. Looking at chriss ship and the rest you could tell they are no longer making money. I mean only omid’s podcast gets coverage and likes. They really shot themselves on the foot by attacking Harry & Meghan

    I wish Harry and Meghan will completely cut ties with the royal family and anything associated with the royals, give up that archaic title and do their own thing. I’m tired of this noise. Because if they succeed on, mark my words these stupid tabloids will say it’s because of their connection to royalty.

  21. Well-Wisher says:

    It is as if the Royal Rota, of which the Sun is a part of , realized that Harry and Meghan will be able to complete their obligations and even excel without them as reporters.
    Now they are projecting their irrelevance into the Sussexes. Harry was welconed warmly by the Commonwealth when he started this position. Please note that 60% of the Commonwealth’s population is under 30 years old and cannot be ignored. One would find the future leaders and they find Harry relatable and interesting, in comparison of less than 7% of the UK believes the BTM.

    Regardless of how QCT was set up It was intended to be the main focus of charity work for Megan and Harry. They will hold on to that and continue it’s work for the good that it does while acknowledging the wrongs of colonialism. That seems to me to be the healthiest way to move forward regardless of how it’s twisted by the tabloid press. They had always intended to work and possibly live in the commonwealth and they even hinted at that in their engagement interview.

    If they try to removed Harry and Meghan from the QCT, that would be a monumentally stupid move.
