Eden: The Sussexes must ‘beg forgiveness’ from the Waleses immediately

For the past week, the royalists and their media have been desperately trying to make one story stick: no one gave the Duke and Duchess of Sussex advance warning on the Princess of Wales’s cancer diagnosis, and this lack of warning is somehow a massive snub for Harry and Meghan. It would be one thing if the Sussexes were the last ones to know, or if Kate and William had given the British public regular updates throughout this year. But as it happened, almost no one got advance warning for Kate’s big announcement. The lack of warning to the Sussexes was more about Kensington Palace’s chaotic incompetence than the lack of trust in the Sussexes. Besides, if we’re going to make this a trust issue, surely William and Kate are the ones who destroyed their own credibility and trustworthiness with years of lies, manipulated photos and incandescent briefings? Still, Daily Mail columnist Richard Eden gets paid to melodramatically review how the Sussexes have a long history of telling the truth about William and Kate and that’s why they should be snubbed! An excerpt from Eden’s “​The very telling reason why Harry and Meghan should now seek forgiveness from Kate…”

Who would you tell if you’d been diagnosed with cancer? Your family, close friends and colleagues, perhaps? The fact that the Princess of Wales did not choose to inform the Duke and Duchess of Sussex of her bombshell news speaks volumes about the state of their relationship. Which is why, as I shall explain, it is now time for Harry and Meghan to seek forgiveness.

Prince Harry and his wife discovered that their sister-in-law Kate had cancer at the same time as the rest of the world – at 6pm on Friday, when Kensington Palace released her brave and moving video message. That, as it happens, was about one hour and 30 minutes later than the royal correspondents, who were given the details in confidence so that they could prepare their news reports. They were trusted, evidently.

That neither Kate nor Prince William should let Prince Harry know would have been inconceivable just a few years ago. Think back to all those jolly photographs and the television footage of those three – pre-Meghan – together. Harry often had a broad smile on his face when they took part in their joint engagements. They shared jokes and teased each other light-heartedly. That all changed after Harry met Meghan.

…Since Kate disclosed her cancer diagnosis, there have been numerous suggestions that she and William should end their rift with Harry and Meghan. Yet, before that can happen, the Sussexes must acknowledge the hurt they have caused and the damage done. They should then apologise and beg forgiveness from Catherine and her husband, who deserve nothing less. How cheering if, during Easter – a time of renewal – they could begin the renewal of their relationship with the Royal Family.

[From The Daily Mail]

Again, the bulk of Eden’s piece is just a histrionic recitation of all of the times Harry and Meghan have told the truth or corrected Kensington Palace’s lies, all to paint Kate as the wronged party. The same Kate who spread a racist lie about Meghan making her cry, the same Kate who apparently said racist sh-t about Meghan’s then-unborn son, the same Kate who freaked out when Meghan sympathetically said something about “baby brain.”

“The fact that the Princess of Wales did not choose to inform the Duke and Duchess of Sussex of her bombshell news speaks volumes about the state of their relationship.” So you agree that Kate’s failure to disclose her medical condition writ large was about her lack of respect for the British public to which she hopes to one day serve as queen? If we’re making this about who was told and when, then yes, I agree that it’s quite telling that there was so much extreme secrecy around Kate, to the point where her friends and staffers apparently couldn’t be trusted with the news either. I also find it suspicious that in the wake of Kate’s announcement, Kensington Palace has apparently given the greenlight to yet another swarm of stories about how much William hates his brother.

  1. I thought nobody knew until right before bench video including her senior staff members so now it’s she withheld it just from Harry and Meg. They should also stop with the bombshell information. They are using her supposed diagnosis as a bombshell a little too freely. The Sussexes will not beg forgiveness for telling the truth.

    • Jan90067 says:

      It’s like their memories of a story *just filed* has been *completely* wiped from their heads! They *just* put out a story how *none* of Kate’s “friends” (and I use the term loosely) “knew” And here we have that people *close* to her would, of course, have been told… all but big, bad H&M.

      You KNOW these words (“beg forgiveness”) come from the petulant, incandescent brother. Funny, isn’t it, how THIS conversation shows up in the paper, yet NOTHING leaked from Harry’s chat with his Bad Dad. Hmm, hmm, hmmm…… Which of these things is NOT like the other!

      • Lily says:

        Will and Kate didn’t even tell Harry they were engaged. He found out from the press. No one phoned Harry that the Queen had passed away. He found out from the press.

        Why is it surprising that they wouldn’t tell him his sister in law has cancer? Just because the three of them smiled at his each other in front of a camera a few times doesn’t mean they were incredibly close. Enjoying someone’s company when you’re working with them for a few hours in public doesn’t make you Bosom Buddies. They need to stop spreading this silly lie that Harry was ever part of their inner circle!

      • TheFarmer'sWife says:

        Not only have “the powers that be” thrown Button Girl under the bus whenever it’s convenient, but now her cancer has been weaponized! As for apologies, the Sussexfuls will never get one. Pegs, Button Girl, Chuckles and his side chick know exactly what they did and are 100% okay with what they said, did, and continue to do. Plus, they are incredibly angry that who they really are has been revealed: a bunch of grifting money grubbers with highly questionable morals and even worse friends. These people are the best in the UK, chosen by God, heads of the Realm and the Church of England? Wow, the UK is in a whole lot of trouble!

    • Snaggletooth says:

      The use of the word bombshell is so indicative. They’ve used this diagnosis for anything and everything other than what it should be (aka a sober and adult conversation about cancer).

      They are so clearly delighted to have what they think is the ultimate got-ya to the Sussexes and the public. I’ve been watching episodes of Curb Your Enthusiasm with my dad and it all reminds me a lot of the way people behave on that show.

      • Christine says:

        It’s completely gross that they are using CANCER to flog Harry and Meghan. These people have no idea how idiotic they are making their monarchy look.

    • Charter says:

      Supposed is right. At best it’s former, as Kate said. At worst it’s something else entirely.. Sadly, I do believe they could make this up.

    • The Robinsons says:

      This ain’t the middle ages!

    • ales says:

      K couldnt be bothered to issue anything about her absence. Nothing. Lavishing in worldwide publicity, whilst they were trying to turn her into Diana and failed miserably. The arrogance is extraordinary. No empathy or sympathy, for someone so manipulative. So many lies, is there any truth or is this just another way the Midds are using the media. Apologies should be made by BRF to the world for all the games and manipulation.

  2. Carol says:

    Eden gave me my best laugh since I heard Trump was selling Bibles!

    • Nic919 says:

      That free dog food is really getting bang for the Middleton buck.

      • Belinda says:

        Shark face CaroleE must be up 24/7 with her beady rat eyes locked on her laptop directing operations like a military general in a war room..

    • AC says:

      @Carol – Trump selling bibles. That was really a laugh out loud. 😀
      RE Eden- what he probably means is that they desperately need a reconciliation. They really need HM back in the UK as they see their monarchy crumbling.

    • Agreatreckoning says:

      Awesome. ++ @Carole. Excellent comment.

  3. equality says:

    Okay. Now let’s do every time H&M haven’t shared news about their lives with W&K. Did the Waleses know about her miscarriage before it went public? Know about PH’s jobs before they were announced? Know about awards or product launches? Bet not.

    • First comment says:

      Did the Wales know about lily’s birth before it went public? Did they feel the need to congratulate the Sussexes for lily’s birth?

    • Amy Bee says:

      @equality: That’s what I’ve been saying . Harry and Meghan never tell the Palace anything before they make announcements. If they did the Palace would leak them and the press knows that. The British press are delusional.

      • Joanne says:

        The real bombshell I want to know is did Harry and Meghan send baldy and Kate an Easter present this year? I eagerly await news of that breaking story.

      • Agreatreckoning says:

        @Joanne, lol, you’re right! That is the real “bombshell story”. Easter presents. A time for “renewal” MUST INCLUDE EASTER PRESENTS for adults that EXPECT EASTER PRESENTS.

    • Christine says:

      I bet you are right, I bet they learned about the miscarriage in the NYT, when Meghan wrote that gut wrenching piece. And that’s fine! These two couples aren’t close, to put it mildly.

  4. seaflower says:

    New day, new opportunity for WanK to look like the idiots they are.

    • AMTC says:

      Yes, getting seriously tedious now. The rota have months ahead till Trooping without any appearances or news (Easter Sunday aside) so expect endless repeats of H&M bs.

    • Agnes says:

      Instead of an inspiration that holds a country together, CRex’s Slimmed Down Monarchy is an object lesson in how NOT to behave. They’re all showing their asses on a regular basis.

  5. Tessa says:

    Harry was not happy being third wheel and it is so off the wall that these writers think harry should spend the rest of his life as the extra man that Kate could flirt with and William could scapegoat. Kate and William owe the sussexes an apology.kate could have said that Meghan never made her cry and they do get along. What did she expect when Meghan set the record straight.

    • Boxy Lady says:

      I’m pretty sure that Harry being the third wheel and scapegoat was part of that business model for the BRF that he told Oprah he wanted no part of. As we can all see, the British media is still relentlessly trying to shove him back in that spot, though.

    • equality says:

      I’ll say it again. Even if he was happy at that time in his life, that doesn’t mean he isn’t allowed to find a wife and have children. You can be happy at all stages of your life, even if your life changes. The idea that there is only one path to happiness is ridiculous and childish.

    • Amy Bee says:

      As soon as Harry and Meghan announced that they were getting married, he stopped doing engagements with William and Kate. That was a sign that he didn’t enjoy being the third wheel or working with them.

      • Agreatreckoning says:

        @Amy Bee, that’s not technically true. They did the ‘Fab Four’ thing in Feb. 2018. If you mean that Harry didn’t do solo events with the Cambridges, then true. If my timeline is correct. Kate was pregnant then. Made very few engagements.

        What is laughable (other than everything Eden wrote), is, Eden saying ‘a few years ago’, LOLLLLLL. A few years ago (technically 4), William had already physically assaulted Harry. Physically assaulted him again in 2021. In 2019/2020, William allowed shite to be leaked to The Sun/Dan Wootton to cover his (W) ass. The Wank’s smear campaign against Meghan. William assigning Harry’s name to a statement Harry knew nothing about-the bullying statement. Harry & Meghan’s security & funding being pulled because of the nefarious situation of Christian Jones, Dan Wootton & William. Please. The palaces chose to protect an employee over a born Prince(and wife & child) to cover up a sinister situation. Come again. H&M are supposed to seek forgiveness for what?

  6. Thais says:

    Eden is obsessed with the Sussexes to a level that makes me feel sorry for anyone who has to live with him.

    • sevenblue says:

      Eden was one of the tabloids writers who reported on the end of friendship between Rose and Kate. After that, he also started to go after H&M aggressively. It is so obvious he and Dan got ordered to bury Will’s affair and so, he can have free reign for going after H&M.

    • PC says:

      This story is clickbait for the Squad. Eden knows nothing gets them as riled up as a H&M should ask for forgiveness story. How else will he get paid? He certainly has no talent as a writer or investigative reporter. So he cranks out one of these stories at least once a week for engagement. He doesn’t care if it’s negative engagement. That’s why truly he should be ignored or only be responded to at sites like Celebitchy. Why should we help him make money?

      • Agreatreckoning says:

        Good point @PC. The UK’s fiscal year ends on March 31st. The RR’s have a quota to meet for their bonuses-engagement is a factor. Dry them out.

  7. Tessa says:

    Blaming Meghan for this is ridiculous. Harry had. A right to his own family instead of trailing after his brother and sister in law.

    • MelodyM says:

      This is similar to my insane little brother blaming me for going off to college, instead of staying home to take care of him after I graduated from high school. Because I was so ‘selfish’, he blames me for everything bad that’s happened in his life. I guess I wasn’t supposed to have a life of my own, smh!

    • Agreatreckoning says:

      Eden blaming Meghan is ridiculous-agree @Tessa. At best it’s tedious, at worst it’s nefarious to blame the WOC. Richard ‘Maureen’ Eden operates at the worst level.

      The three were “so close” that when Harry lived at Nott Cott (pre Meghan), the WanK’s didn’t invite him over as mentioned in SPARE. Another false story spread far and wide by the BM. Kate wasn’t making roasted chicken for Harry.

  8. Maxine Branch says:

    If possible, William continues to make himself look smaller and smaller with his proclamations of his hatred for his brother. It seems more like envy to me. Harry has moved on and is so far ahead of William until William looks more and more like a miserable little man. Eden is so up the monarchist hill until he comes across as a hollow little man with no sense of common decency. The self righteousness of his proclamations in the face of the vitriol the Sussexes are subjected to by him and his fellow gutter rats is beyond reality. Eden breathlessly reports on every utterance or movement by the Sussexes with many of his talking points coming directly from KP. He is just another monarchist with a -platform that reports bile.

  9. Befuddled says:

    I *must* do laundry today. The Sussexes don’t need to do a damn thing.

    • kkat says:

      And really you can probably get another wear out of those pants, and you can always go commando

      • Juls says:

        Bwahaha!
        Don’t ask me HOW I know this but……a LOT of women, especially over 40, are going commando now. I don’t know why but, it’s happening.

  10. Mrs.Krabapple says:

    Why should a victim have to beg their abusers for forgiveness? Is that how things work in William and Kate’s marriage?

  11. Zappy says:

    W&K need to move on with their own life. Whatever their camp said about HM are beyond pathetic at this point.

  12. ML says:

    Due to the whole Garrick Club scandal that the Guardian has been covering, Eden’s coverage reminds me of this: “Whenever 3 Englishmen get together, 2 of them will form a club to keep the other one out,” (or something along those lines—I can’t locate where I read that), because that seriously seems to be how Club British Royal Family treats H&M.

    I am still questioning why now. At this point, KC and K are more sympathetic and popular due to ill health. Normally you build on positive vibes instead of cudgeling others at this point. Normally you would not want the association with negativity.

    • Olivia says:

      That quote made me laugh so hard…. Because it is absolutely true 😂

      I think in his core Bulliam only knows how to be mean. Noone told him when he was 5 that being mean and pushing people around is not a show of strength but a slow of weak character and ugliness.
      So he continues to the day thinking this makes him look regal and strong.
      Sad.

    • Liz says:

      ML – that’s so true. And always has been. When Tony Snowdon became a member of the rf through marrying Princess Margaret, Philip invited him to a mens night. He made sure all the guys wore the same colour of dinner jacket so that when Tony walked in he was the odd one out.

      • Schrodinger's Kate says:

        Lol, @Liz I had no idea Prince Philip was a mean girl!

      • BayTampaBay says:

        Believe it or not Philip and Tony Snowdon really “got-on” quite well.

      • Liz says:

        To SK – I think being a mean girl is a pre requisite for joining the rf 😀 otherwise you’ll become a target for them

        And Baytampa – Tony was known for getting on well with men

  13. Dee(2) says:

    It’s hilarious to me how truly bothered they are by the fact that Harry and Meghan are clearly not falling all over themselves to be on the ins with that family. It’s like that meme of that yearbook photo where the guy says ” is not so much that I succeed you also must fail “. They can’t be happy doing their own things, having a media totally focused on them in the country that two people pretty much never visit, they need Harry and Meghan to suffer It’s pathological.

  14. Nanea says:

    Doesn’t Maureen have any more dog food to review?

    Seriously, the way these people twist facts – when we all could see with our own eyes what went down, often in real time.

    The most telling detail: Bulliam Baldilocks being incandescent with rage that Harry shared with the world what a ragey POS he is.

    And we were all told that Peggy was blindsided by Kate Missington’s surgery. And that the people working at KP hadn’t heard from Schrödinger’s Princess, and that it wasn’t cancer anyway.

    So why are the Toxic British media still going on about H&M being out of the loop, when even the people closest to WanK have no idea about anything?

    H&M don’t owe the Wailses anything, much less an excuse for being treated like sh!t by *them*.

  15. Cessily says:

    So WanK and her/their team are holding hate briefings between cancer treatments while asking for grace and sympathy I see.

  16. MsIam says:

    Eh, who cares what Maureen thinks. This is just par for the course with the royals. Someone else must always take the blame, whether its some poor unfortunate staff member who falls on the sword or a member of the “family”. The hierarchy must be upheld. So to them it makes perfect sense for a person to take the blame for their own abuse, to think otherwise would be the end of the world. So they don’t “owe” Harry and Meghan an apology, the Sussexes should apologize to them for not accepting the abuse. And daring to speak about it publicly. So the Sussexes should stay the course and maintain minimum contact with the Unroyals.

  17. Amy Bee says:

    This piece just tells me how desperate people like Eden are for there to be reconciliation and for Harry and Meghan to return to the fold.

    • Shawna says:

      Their profession is drying up before their eyes. Pivot into something else, people. Aren’t you a little ashamed to be taking dictation from a man-baby?

    • Where'sMyTiara says:

      He’s terrified of the coming reign of William the Unprepared.

      But this is precisely what Eden stated he’s wanted. All of it. He wanted a rift between the brothers to write about, he wanted Harry and Meghan to LEAVE the UK, to stop “being a burden on the taxpayers”. Didn’t want Harry, who remains a prince of the realm, still in the line of succession, to even have a permanent home in the land of his birth! Eden was *gleeful* when H&M first left. He was ecstatic over Chuck taking Frogmore from the couple.

      Then Eden got the full glimpse of what the country was left with.

      Eden and every other tabloid diarrhea dribbler owe H&M a profound apology, for taking the parasocial relationship with the BRF too far, to the extent that the Rota have become co-abusers of the Sussexes in tandem with the more unsavoury players of the BRF.

    • Christine says:

      I agree with you, Where’sMyTiara. I think Eden was gleefully hoping for a situation where the two couples would be at war. It obviously didn’t occur to him that Harry and Meghan would ever leave the continent.

    • Princessk says:

      @Amy Bee. Exactly! These royal rota rats, so called royal commentators and royal biographers and magazine and newspaper editors are running scared that if RF folds bang go their jobs. They are desperate to keep the show on the road and realised that they have overstepped the demonisation of Harry and Meghan and they are now desperately looking for for ways to back peddle.
      Kate wasn’t doing much before and whatever happens she is going to be doing much less in the future. William is clearly dreading becoming King and people clearly can see that he is not up to the job. The future of the RF looks very shaky and the star power of the charismatic Sussexes is desperately needed.

  18. Jais says:

    Using Kate’s cancer diagnosis to malign Harry and Meghan is not a good look. The rota will squander all the good will until everyone’s back and rolling in the gutter. Whatever sympathy the royals are getting will not amount to much if they use it in their petty game-playing.

    • Dee(2) says:

      Yep. I said on Monday that the British media and Kensington Palace does not know how to stay out of their own way. And if there is one thing you can rely on is them snatching defeat from the jaws of victory. If they were just lay low and write sugary sweet stories about Kate and her family and William and Charles and Camilla for the next two months no one would say a thing. But no they can’t, they can’t live in a world where Harry and Meghan are existing and not begging them to return so they have to malign them at every turn. And they’re going to overstep. They’re still plenty of people that’s not buying what they’re selling and behaving like an ass sanction or unsanctioned in the media just makes people have less sympathy for you. I give it till June and you’re going to hear a bunch of, ” yeah sucks she has cancer, but…”.

      • Blithe says:

        Yeah. This would be a great time to roll out some nostalgia pics: Kate smiling with the Queen. Kate with the kids as babies. Kate surrounded by smiling pensioners and school kids — thrilled that their Princess English Rose has graced them with her presence, and Will Again as soon as she’s feeling better. Kate graciously receiving her flowers, symbolizing all that is Good. Instead, it’s constant reminders that the DM needs their Orwellian Two Minutes of Hate venting again and again and again. It’s vile. It’s also boring. While they may have readers who lap this stuff up and long for more, it’s also surely at the point where all but the most rabid haters have to start wondering why they’re being fed stale stories about a prince who was unhappy, married, and moved out of his Dad’s house to build his own life —instead of paeans to the heirs that they’ve been left with. If, at every turn and every crisis, they whine for Harry, it makes it more and more painfully obvious how very lacking William is. Could that actually be the point? Closet republicans at the DM?

    • rosa mwemaid says:

      I wondered how long it would take for H&M to get the blame. It doesn’t seem to have occured to the right wing press that H & M might be too busy getting on with their own lives to take a lot of notice what the rest of the royals are about.

  19. Carmen says:

    OMFG this Eden guy is possessed. Every single day he launches another broadside about how Harry and Meghan MUST MUST MUST apologize to Fumbles and Mumbles or the world will spin off its axis. He really believes that all Harry has to do is ditch Meghan and the kids, scamper back to Salt Isle alone, throw himself at WanK’s feet and beg forgiveness, and they can be the some old happy-go-lucky trio as they were fifteen years ago. Somebody needs to literally throw a bucket of cold water in his face. Harry would never think about bringing his family back into a hostile environment, and he’s not going anywhere without them. He and Meghan are living their best life on the California coast.

    While Eden rants about Harry returning to the UK, the Sun is having hysterical fits over the Sussex Squad, whom they seem to think is some kind evil empire that must be destroyed if the monarchy is to survive. As far as I can tell the Squad is an amorphous group with no head and no central organization, whose sole purpose is to defend Harry and Meghan from nonstop vicious attacks from the royals, derangers, Rota rats, and the British tabloids. The Sun maintains they are a small group concentrated in the US, but as far as I can tell, they are numerous and they are everywhere.

    On the lighter side, William is said to be having a shitfit because Baldimort is trending on Twitter and the memes are absolutely hilarious. Check them out.

  20. Mel says:

    Pegs and Buttons need to remember that everything the press are saying about Harry is what they will one day say about Louis. And about his wife (or husband). Personally it would make me extremely happy if George comes out as gay with no intention of having a family, Charlotte stays childfree and Louis kicks them all into the dust and opts out of the running. Welcome King Archie!! Except that he would have too much sense and be far too grounded, like his sister, so then what? Queen Beatrice? Oh well!!!!!!!

    • MrsH says:

      It would personally make me very happy if William came out as gay or even bi.

      I’m not saying he IS but to me there are so many things we know or hear that make me wonder if he is. If he is and he feels he has to hide it then that would be the one area I do feel bad for him for.

      • ohwell says:

        I think Will is hiding his sexuality and a lot of his rage stems from his inner turmoil. He is so image conscious and the strive for perfection is causing him and Kate to disintegrate.

      • DianaTheArcher says:

        I think he’s bi or gay, too. Speaking as someone who is:

        There’s a ton of us who are bi on one axis (romantic vs. sexual) and fully gay on another (romantic v. sexual). Most of us only figure that out from experience–from having multiple hetero partners directly tell us they feel hurt.

        Sometimes it’s just a lack of connection; sometimes it’s an attraction-repulsion vibe. One axis is attracted and the other axis is repulsed. It’s extremely hurtful to a hetero partner. And you require EQ to parse it, which Will doesn’t have.

        I could easily see a queer heir really rack up some affairs with women in his 20s and 30s as a kind of rumination-rebellion exercise of slowly disentangling what purely his own feelings are vs. which of his feelings are enmeshed with the expectations of others.

        Regular millennial LGBTs need to process people expecting heteronormativity from us. 1 billion people pushed Will into heteronormativity, and kinda as his sole purpose in life. I can’t imagine how difficult that would be.

        Doesn’t excuse his cruelty. Just seeing that his environment was fully traumatic for a queer heir.

      • BayTampaBay says:

        “I think he’s bi or gay, too”

        So do I. This is the reason I always thought Cholmondeley “affair” was a threesome: William, Rosa AND David.

        It would seem an affair with only Rose could be easily ignore by Kate (as she did in college) but an affair involving David Rocksavage Cholmondeley is entirely another matter.

  21. Eurydice says:

    I don’t know why they think this is still an effective strategy. What difference does it make if William and Harry hate each other? They both have their own lives and their relationship makes no difference to the rest of the world.

    As for those “jolly” pre-Meghan photos – first of all, we now know how much KP photos are worth. But even if those were jolly days, they’re in the past. Would that jolly threesome still have continued after Kate had more and more children? After Elizabeth died? After Charles became king? After William became PoW? Eden is like those old Brits who moan about the good old days – “if only this or that hadn’t happened, if only ‘they’ hadn’t let ‘them’ in the country, we’d still be an Empire.”

    • MsIam says:

      I guess they think if they say it out loud often enough it will come true? Or more likely they’ve run out of things to write so it’s “rinse and repeat” day after day after day……..

      • Eurydice says:

        What will come true? William and Harry are estranged and Meghan is gone – so, mission accomplished.

        It’s definitely “rinse and repeat” – and I think that’s true of William, too. It’s a kneejerk reaction – the press has nothing to say, so they recycle an H&M hate story. William needs to react to something, so he spews out “I hate Harry.” At this point, there’s no actual thought behind it.

      • MsIam says:

        The “Harry coming back to be the third wheel/scapegoat/lackey” part. The dream won’t be complete without that. I guess because William and Charles have no more countries to conquer they have to make due with taking over Harry’s life instead.

    • Shawna says:

      Brilliant point connecting the two nostalgias. Little England, streamlined monarchy.

    • Tessa says:

      Harry had girlfriends and a serious relationship with chelsy so why would he have wanted to be so devoted to being third wheel.

      • MsIam says:

        Well considering how the media ran off Chelsy and Cressida I really think the intention was for Harry to be alone whether he liked it or not. Its a twisted family for sure.

  22. Shawna says:

    Did we know before that the rota rats were given advance information before the video was released?

    Eden is gloating because he thinks he’s closer to the Waleses than the Sussexes are. It may be the case, but it’s a pathetic flex.

      He has to keep in with William or he might be off the rota, it doesn’t matter about keeping in with Harry.

    “the Sussexes must acknowledge the hurt they have caused and the damage done. They should then apologise and beg forgiveness from Catherine and her husband, who deserve nothing less. How cheering if, during Easter – a time of renewal – they could begin the renewal of their relationship with the Royal Family” – I gotta say, this is some great fan fic here. In fact, I think that’s what the entire royal press corps spends their time doing; feverishly imagining scenarios that their faves could/should participate in, then getting out the word processor.

    • Tessa says:

      And how about Kate taking threatening steps towards Meghan. And right in front of cameras. And William punching harry and falsely accusing Meghan of bullying staff

  24. Monika says:

    This is repeating all the old boring stuff, from Harry and Meghan cannot be trusted, citing the interviews, the documentary and “Spare” from the last four years, ignoring conveniently all the briefings and leaks against Harry the previous 20 years and from 2018 against Meghan, using them as human shields, and the old boring stuff everything was better before Harry met Meghan. This is fan fiction. Time to move.

  25. Just Jade says:

    They are so mad the Sussexes did not run to salt island to see Kate after the bench announcement. One of the rats 🐀 was on fox tv stated he was told H&M were on their way to salt island and may be the brothers will finally make peace and phone hacker Katie was talking to Kevin Fraser saying Billy was Harry’s best friend. They are really running out of lies and trying to make fetch happen.

  26. MrsH says:

    A tell that he is the Middleton’s mouthpiece: “Catherine and her husband”. Always putting her over William, the blood royal and the future king. William- without whom she would be nothing.

  27. Nic919 says:

    Meghan had a miscarriage while the lawsuit relating to her father’s letter was still going on, thanks to the direct efforts of William and his top staffer. That is an unforgivable action. Nothing Harry or Meghan have done has been anything but correct lies. And Eden is a gross little troll prepared to spew bootlicker nonsense for free dog food.

  28. ohwell says:

    The dream from the tabloids is Harry and Meghan begging for forgiveness. Haha.

  29. Schrodinger's Kate says:

    Harry, sadly, has never been “in the know” when it comes to his weird brother. It started when they were children and William refused to acknowledge Harry as his brother at school. Harry was frozen out of knowing about William’s engagement to Kate (as already mentioned). Then Harry was literally on the outside looking in at William and Kate’s place, wondering if he’d ever be invited to be a proper uncle to their children.

    Blaming Harry, let alone Meghan, for any estrangement is therefore absolutely ludicrous because it started when they were children and it started with William and was happily perpetuated by Kate (against Meghan, in particular).

    These people really need to shut up about this apology nonsense. It just calls more attention to the racism by insisting a proud black woman guilty of NOTHING humble herself to the likes of them for garbage they put out into the world.

    • equality says:

      That is what they are all dying to see and some of the derangers gloat openly at the thought of Meghan having to curtsey to Kate.

    • Surly Gale says:

      Where oh where is the like button?? @SWchrodinger’s Kate “It just calls more attention the racism……” WHAT AN HONEST AND BRILLIANT SENTENCE”. All too true, sadly.

    • rosa mwemaid says:

      Meghan is far too pretty for W and K and was too confident with meeting the public.

    • jwoolman says:

      My brother and I kept plenty of stuff from each other and from our mother. Didn’t mean our relationship
      was bad. He waited at least 2 months before telling me he had a cardiac event on his way to Mass (what timing) that landed him in the hospital for more than a week. He just didn’t want me to worry and waited until he was doing well and sounded it. I don’t think I ever told him about my own hospital adventure, in my case because I didn’t want him endlessly asking about it (he was like that and it was annoying, he just wanted to be part of it so was well-intentioned).

      I learned never to tell him the cats’ names or if they were sick, same reason. He meant well, but I couldn’t take all the concern! Once he called just after a cat died and he asked how the cats were doing. I innocently said something like “Fine as ever” with my little friend stiffening in rigor mortis in a box at my side. Well, it was true enough. When he told me tales of basic training on his way to Vietnam, every other word was “Don’t tell mom, but…”.

      This probably horrifies those who tell family everything, but we just never were that way. We got away with it because we lived far enough apart to communicate only by phone. Even so, we talked much more often than some other siblings I know. So I can’t really say how bad Harry’s and William’s relationship is because they don’t tell each other much. Maybe they never did. Kate and Harry hung out before Harry got married, but it’s common to drift apart after one person gets married. Harry was there a lot when single, not so much when engaged and married.

  30. QuiteContrary says:

    This is absolutely disgusting.

    The biracial princess has to BEG for forgiveness from the racist white princess who lied about her and helped to gin up the harassment of her????

    The gaslighting. The gall. The white supremacy of it all.

    • rosa mwemaid says:

      To be fair Kate did buy a bunch of flowers for Meghan to say sorry, the lies in the press came a bit later, but of course the flowers said it all. So we knew the press was lying.

      • Saucy&Sassy says:

        rosa mwemaid, not just the press was lying–they had to get that story from someone. It must have been from Bone Idle or Ma Mids who fed that to Tominey. Don’t think those flowers and a note made any difference to what she did to smear Meghan.

  31. Feeshalori says:

    Another day, another whine-fest. How are your personal relationships going, Eden? I’m sure you’d love to take unwelcome and interfering advice on what you must do from total strangers.

  32. Rnot says:

    So what I’m getting is that someone is leaning on William to apologize and make up with the Sussexes, and this is his petulant response. Things must be dire behind the scenes.

  33. Beverley says:

    The BM is running on fumes, desperate to drag Harry back to save their industry from the lackluster of the stale, pale Left-Behind Royals. Even with the cancer news, the rota rats have almost nothing to work with. They are recycling old stories, hoping to keep the clicks coming, but eventually they’ll need Harry back to keep their tabloid reporting fresh. You can almost smell their desperation! I hope Harry starves them out of business, ruins them in court, and continues to thrive here in America with his beautiful family.

  34. Mary Pester says:

    😞💤💤💤💤💤💤
    That is the sound of Eden writing his comment, it’s not clever, it’s not new, he just has it saved on his email account and pushes send every few weeks
    NO you prat, all this shows us is that Harry and Megan are better, successful in their own right people, and the Royals are just lieing game playing muppets, oh, just a thought, do tell Eden, did YOU find out in advance? No, well OK then, that just shows how important you are. Do come back when you have “Duke OR Duchess in front of either of your names, maybe then your columns will stop being used in the bottom of hamster cages, where it will join other sht

  35. Heather says:

    Of course everything changed after Meghan arrived.

    Harry walks in with William’s dream girl, from his favorite show—and Kate knows this.

    Given who William is…it was inevitable.

  36. HuffnPuff says:

    The fact that W&K didn’t tell the Sussexes says more about W&K than it does about the Sussexes. This is the future king and he acts like an out of control toddler. Yes, the Sussexes spilled the beans on what happened and how they were mistreated. What did the RF think would happen after they pushed them out? If anyone needs to beg forgiveness, it’s the RF. As these illnesses have shown, they sure could use a spare right about now.

  37. Saucy&Sassy says:

    Anyone who read Spare knows that Harry was the last to know that QE2 died. Why would we now think that he would be kept in the loop on any of the UK royal family illnesses, etc.? This article is silly.

    The rr need to start planning for their futures and find another way to make money. By the time Harry gets done with all of his lawsuit and the crimes committed are public, there may be way fewer people employed.

  38. Debbye says:

    How about Petulant Wales need to beg forgiveness of The Lovely Sussexes there fixed the headline

  39. Cathalea says:

    AND THIS IS WHAT ITS ALL about. They want H&M crawling back.l, AND THEY just DONT WANNA WORK.

    I don’t know what kardashian PR firm Willnot hired, but the whole thing has backfired 7×777

    Weird that nobody sees it, as it is..

  40. ElleE says:

    Eden grasping to the last threads of the dying narrative the royal eggsperts have been pushing lol.

    The writing is on the wall and when Harry does resume some royal duties, you know it will be on his terms.

  41. JudyB says:

    I had read Spare when it first came out last year, and then a couple of weeks ago, I started reading Charles Spencer’s new book. About halfway through it, things in it reminded me of things I had read in Spare, but it was a little unclear, so I picked up Spare again and in the last couple of days, read it cover to cover. It made a lot more sense to me this time after all the things that have happened in the last year. This time through, I could see much more clearly how Harry emotionally worked through a lot of things and learned that he really, really did not have to do something or not do something because the Palace told him to.

    I strongly suggest that any of you who read Spare months ago, to pick it up and read it again.

    Also, a couple of years ago, I read a biography of Beatrix Potter and found some similarities between her family and Prince Harry’s. Her parents had decided that she was the child that would become their caregiver in their old age, so they forbid her to get married and kept her home-bound and financially poor. It all changed when she fell in love with her publisher and earned enough money from her books to buy a farm and escape her parents. Interesting story of another person who was supposed to “serve” her uncaring family, instead of having her own life and family.

    • Thank you for that, I just looked her up and found a great article about her in The Smithsonian and a link to her house which is in the National Trust.

      I want to read her biography!

  42. Blujfly says:

    Harry stated in Spare that he found out about William and Kate’s engagement when it was announced to the media and the Wales famously only told the Queen and Charles an hour before the public announcement. So perhaps most people would tell their families such news first but William isn’t one of them

    • Liz says:

      Sounds like William is just plain rude and had no real enthusiasm for his own engagement
