It’s safe to say that Prince William has been raging out for three solid days now, all because the Duke and Duchess of Sussex dared to partner with WHO for a two-day humanitarian visit to Jordan this week. Prince Harry and Meghan could not have been clearer in their messaging across the board – they informed who they needed to inform, they partnered with above-board United Nation organization, they did about a dozen events and appearances in steady succession. This resembled a well-worn celebrity-ambassador visit, like a UNICEF ambassador or a celebrity partnering with Save the Children. The only people screaming that it LOOKS like a royal tour are the British media and the Windsors themselves, as they try to tie themselves to the charismatic Sussex brand while also trying to drag the Sussexes into the gutter. Behind so much of the “backlash” is just… Prince William, screaming, crying and throwing up that Harry and Meghan can do whatever they want without Peggy’s permission. Speaking of, NewsNation had another batsh-t crazy palace briefing.
William is furious: After almost two years, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle once again jetted off to do another quasi-royal tour … and once again infuriated his brother, Prince William. The couple’s last two tours in 2024 created controversy as they were in Nigeria and Colombia — two countries high on the corruption list and not known for their safety. Harry, who has been trying for years to get English taxpayers to foot the bill for his and his family’s security, has always said he can’t bring his wife and children back to the United Kingdom because it isn’t safe (until they have police protection). The other issue? There was no obvious reason for them to go. Yet he and Meghan larked over to Jordan with the World Health Organization to visit children and refugees affected by the Gaza War.
A lack of discipline: Harry and Meghan’s trip shows a lack of discipline within the royal family, which is currently experiencing its greatest test ever having to deal with former Prince Andrew and the Epstein files, the trip is also being seen as a manipulation by the British government to have the erstwhile royals shape political messaging back home, and it is seen as Harry and Meghan’s forceful attempt to become part-time working royals on their own terms — despite Queen Elizabeth denying them this role.
Harry’s political clout: Harry has become quite close to several members of Parliament — including former Home Secretary, Yvette Cooper, and current Home Secretary, Shabana Mahmood. Both signed a 2019 letter of solidarity defending Meghan, and Mahmood recently granted Harry a new threat assessment review, which some see as a favor, and Mahmood traveled with Harry to Ukraine last year. “The royal family is not supposed to be seen as political in any way,” a royal source told me. ”But there are fears that Harry is helping the Labor government with this trip as he is trying to get his security back. (Prime Minister) Keir Starmer has always been very pro-Palestinian and it looks as if Harry and Meghan are bolstering that stance without (Starmer) having to get involved.”
Meghan the global ambassador: “Meghan is trying out her next role as ambassador to the world,” my source said. “It’s like her next role is a combination of trying to be Harry’s mother, Princess Diana and Angelina Jolie.”
How dare the Sussexes do whatever they want: But because this trip was under the guise of a humanitarian visit (as opposed to just a fun cool trip like Nigeria and Colombia), people inside the palace are genuinely concerned that despite the fact that the two are no longer royals, and agreed to the “Megxit” pact (you’re either in or out — and they chose out) — they are just going ahead and doing what they want anyway.
Harry is bullying King Charles!! “Harry has a habit of bullying his father into getting what he wants,” my source said. “And Charles isn’t strong enough to say no. Harry wanted police security — and despite losing a court case to get it — he went ahead and lobbied members of Parliament. He now claims he has it (that has yet to be seen),” my source continued. “He wanted a half in, half out role in the Firm — and was told no. So now he’s trying to do it anyways. There is a pattern here and it’s not pretty.”
These kinds of humanitarian visits will end when Scooter King is in charge: According to Sykes (and several others I have spoken to, including royal historian Andrew Lownie), the Sussexes should enjoy the leeway now as it will all end the second William comes to power. “For William, the Andrew crisis is not only a warning but also an opportunity,” Sykes notes. “It gives him a concrete case for acting firmly once the crown passes to him. He is determined, allies say, not to let the same confusion and lack of discipline continue into his children’s generation.”
Last year, the Mail’s Richard Eden wrote constantly about the Starmer government’s “secret plan” to “bring back the Sussexes.” To which I ask again… if the government is fully taking the position that Harry and Meghan should be brought in from the cold, and that a thaw is needed here, should the supposedly “apolitical” Windsors agree with the plan? It’s what the government wants, after all. Why is Political William fighting the Starmer government on their efforts to manage a larger Sussex reconciliation? Is it because William is not only the Tory’s convenient idiot, but he’s also violently terrified that everyone will gang up against him and take Harry’s “side”?
“The Sussexes should enjoy the leeway now as it will all end the second William comes to power…” This is what I still don’t understand about William’s Big Incandescent Rage Plot to Bring Down the Sussexes. He shrieks at the top of his lungs that he’s going to take away the Sussexes’ titles and “ban” them from the UK. Okay, and? What will that “end” again? Harry will still be Harry and Meghan will still be Meghan. Agencies like WHO will still want to harness their star power. Countries will still invite the Sussexes for visits to highlight tourism, the arts, inclusion programs and veterans’ programs. Meghan and Harry will still be successful, free, rich and sexy. *stomps feet* BUT IT ALL ENDS HERE, cries William! I ORDER YOU TO STOP BEING SUCCESSFUL AND POPULAR!
Scooter disrespected his father whining about how he would have been more severe with Andrew. And talking about when he is king. Scoots is not the emperor of the universe he can’t order charities around about who they choose to represent them. Now he’s going beyond taking titles away he’s trying to ban harry and Meghan from doing charity work
NewsNation can’t get anything right, lol! Other royal family members have visited Colombia and Nigeria fairly recently. Harry actually went to court asking to pay for security, but was told no. The Sussexes have worked with WHO and Dr Tedros for years and were asked to accompany them as partners (Archewell Philanthropies made a $500k donation to relevant causes last year). And it was Yvette Cooper who travelled on the same train to Ukraine as Harry and Invictus last year. Btw, Starmer is pilloried here in the UK for NOT supporting Palestinians and being pro-Israel.
Stripping a title does not strip talent. Stripping a title does not strip charisma. Stripping a title does not strip the WHO’s phone number from Archewell’s contacts. TOB should focus on doing more meaningful engagements. His threats reveal his impotence, not his power. A man with real authority does not need to constantly announce what he will do when he finally has control. A man secure in his position does not rage for three days because his brother visited a refugee camp.
It seems the Peg the jealous thinks that when he is king he will rule the world and all countries will do his bidding to hate the Sussexes. Sorry Peg that’s not how it works! The Sussexes will continue to be INVITED by organizations and other countries who believe that they have a great platform ( without being part of the royal circus) and are willing to do the work!! Rage on you jealous fool!!!
You mean the same por ol’ story book, king to-be, one pint willie who was proudly chauffeuring prince andrew around? OK!
Willy’s blood pressure readings must be interesting. (Is that a sign of age to say that?)
So stupid to write that Willy can stop the Sussexes from doing international philanthropic work. As of the BRF owns international philanthropic work. Someone tell Angelina Jolie.
Maybe Willy can stop British embassies from hosting the Sussexes when they’re overseas. But how is Willy going to stop WHO from organizing a trip with them, esp. when Archewell is working with WHO? Is Willy really going to use British capital to plead with organizations like WHO to drop the Sussexes, and would that be remotely effective?
Anyway, it’s rich Willy wants to stop the Sussexes doing these trips, when he and Kate refuse to do them.
I agree this stops nothing. As I was reading Kaiser’s last paragraph I just kept picturing the scene from the original cartoon Grinch where after taking all the toys and decorations (titles and HRH) the town still came out to sing and celebrate Christmas.
I just keep picturing the world recognizing Harry and Meghan and the Grinch King completely baffled by it all. Only I don’t see his heart growing.
I don’t understand. The Sussexes are private citizens in the U.S. and now have nothing to do with royal duties for the BRF. How does William have any right to control them or stop them from their humanitarian work as private citizens? Wilbur is deranged and his only “work” and passion is thwarting the Sussexes at every turn. It is a vendetta that is truly insane and pointless. Are there psychologists or psychiatrists on Celebitchy to analyze William’s rage and determination to suppress the Sussexes?
I can only guess that he will lobby hard for other countries to not provide security for any Sussex visits. Pretty sure that’s already been happening to some extent but he will go much harder for that when he’s king. Doesn’t mean those countries will listen.
That would backfire so spectacularly if it ever became public.
It is public information at this point. Harry said they were lobbying other govts to refuse him security in that interview he did right after he lost the court case.
Charles did it and the other countries took no notice, they weren’t prepared to have Harry shot at in their countries.
Exactly @sunniside up. Even in this country the Met decided it was too big a risk to let Harry attend a high profile visit without their protection. So good luck with them trying to “persuade” other countries (especially in the Commonwealth) that Harry and his wife shouldn’t have protection.
As for William. What an absolute plonker. How on earth is he going to stop organisations inviting Harry and Meghan to their events? Is he going to say if you don’t invite them Kate and I will attend instead. Because if anyone believes that they would step in for Harry and Meghan, then I’ve a bridge to sell you.
William seems very confused about what he can and can’t do. Or at least, he’s soothing himself with the thought that once he’s King he will be able to do all of these ridiculous things it’s just his father is too weak to do so, not that Charles realizes that he literally can’t.
I really want to know in his brain how William plans to stop them from traveling places? The British royal family does not have the weight and capital to stop global organizations from doing what they want. And private philanthropies and organization backed by billionaires will just laugh at them. What is he going to do? Demand Harry’s passport back? Strip him of his UK citizenship so he thinks he can’t travel? I legitimately want to know how he plans to stop them from traveling and doing tours when he’s the king?
He sounds increasingly unhinged and isn’t afraid to have these rants associated with him which is troublesome
At this point, go ahead and take all the dang titles, William. Or the ones that he can take anyways. It’s truly the only thing that might make him happy at this point. Cuz that happiness is not going to last very long when he sees that people still love the Sussexes, titles or not. But sure, go ahead.
As I understand it he can only take the HRHs the rest has to be done by parliament. But of course Harry can call himself what ever he wants. The singer Prince was not the son of a King,
I wonder if he’s always been this unhinged and is just being less protected now? He really comes across as an angry, delusional, loser who can’t control his emotions. It’s bizarre that he has no one around him to tell him how horrible this looks and that someone with real power wouldn’t constantly be crying like a baby.
As for his threats, I totally agree that there’s nothing he can do outside of the UK (and probably little inside the UK). He’s not the king of the world and doesn’t control what independent businesses and charities do. A smarter (and less lazy) person would just start working more on serious causes, to show how valuable he could be…but we know Scooter will never do that.
It’s possible that he is more unhinged due to a loss of control. He has no control over Harry. And he grew up thinking he would have control over the spare, it was his promised right as the heir. And he doesn’t. And it’s been making him crash out for years.
Guys, I’m starting to suspect that raising someone with unlimited privilege to believe that their magical blood makes them so special that they must rule over everyone else in the world might not be great for that person’s mental and emotional well-being.
Whew, that was a lot. Good to know that Sykes and Lownies are some of news nation’s sources. Do they all have their own little group chat?
And that highlighting children and refugees at the request of the WHO is not apparently an obvious enough reason to visit Jordan. Sorry but that’s funny.
And Charles has not given Harry security so how was he bullied by Harry? The govt agreed to a new risk assessment. That’s it.
Again, no wonder William wasn’t calm enough to even watch a movie, jeez.
It’s ironic that scoot talks about lack of discipline when he shirks work and has low work numbers and takes many vacations. The next generation includes scoots and keens kids. They see their parents not working much. Will they take up scoots bad example when he preaches about lack of discipline. In effect saying scoots is disciplined.when he’s always going on about harry and meghan.
William is nuts, certifiable.
He sounds like he’s spiraling off his meds, at this point if he wasn’t the heir he would probably be locked up on a 72 hour hold for a psych evaluation. This is not normal behavior even for an entitled *sshole like he is, what a horrible look for any grown man let alone the heir to the throne. People are paying attention because of the AMW Epstein connection/royal coverup and here is the heir raging not about his Earthshot donor, uncle or the royal coverup and there is absolutely no mention of the victims but he has not shut up about how he is going to punish his brother for feeding people and making prosthetic available to those who lost limbs. This is just a great pr campaign Peggy.
If William is like this about a 2 day visit to Jordan. How’s he going to handle Invictus They are going to have to sedate him.
Yeah, I’m thinking part of the renovation of Forest Lodge was a nice big padded room.
That’s what the 150 acre land grab was really about. It was so no one could hear him scream.
The secrecy of Forest Lodge is really problematic for publicly supported royals. There are records of who comes and goes at Buck House and Windsor and Balmoral. That’s how we know about Andrews shennanigans. But the Waleses could have a conga line of prostitutes going in one entrance and out the other and the ublic wouldn’t know. That’s a big, big problem. People yikked and yakked about privacy for the Sussexes but the Waleses are the ones who are seeking privacy without any accountability. Why is this being allowed without question?
That man is not well
Nah, I’m not buying this. It’s the old playbook to distract from the Prince Andrew scandal. Seems to be working…
Shouldn’t the future king be focusing on his extensive public service and charity patronages? Lol, just kidding. He’s gonna dog the Sussexes while day drinking and shirking his duty.
” Keir Starmer has always been very pro-Palestinian” I’ve not seen anything pro Palestinian from him. Keir Starmer’s wife and children are Jewish.
This is so unhinged – the future king of England demands (!) that humanitarian organizations and countries trying to deal with crises stop hosting his brother because he is consumed with hatred and petty jealousy. His number one priority is that others STOP HELPING PEOPLE.
Perhaps it would be more to the point for the Royal Family to pay Harry and Meghan to do foreign trips for them as W & K are refusing.
Willy doesn’t show up for his country’s own wounded warriors. What does he know about being a humanitarian??
Harry is not “spare” anymore. Harry is his own man, married for love in a country that allows him his freedom. He is the entire world for two beautiful children. Bless him!
And Will cannot freakin’ stand it. What a wuss.
Wilbur is furious because he can’t understand why Harry and Meghan are acting altruistically by continuing charity work at home and abroad. He’s paid a fortune and refuses to do much charity work and absolutely doesn’t want to carry out 2 Royal Tours a year. He can’t believe that Harry and Meghan are genuinely committed to charity work because he’s not. However he is THE dog in the manger because only HE and other working RF members can be deemed OFFICIAL and APPROVED carrying out charitable visits. They are TRESPASSING on his royal prerogative and it can’t be allowed to continue! Harry and Meghan made it clear service is universal and they have every right to contribute as they see fit. Believe me, once Wilbur and Wifey are Big King and Queen, they will be under immediate pressure to be visible and get out there on a daily basis. It is NONE of Wilbur ‘s business what either do or don’t do because they are separate entities independent of him. He can’t bann them from doing anything. Infact it will be he and his missus who will be under scrutiny if he tries to bann them whilst continuing to do jack as King!
Future William: “How dare they visit wildfire victims! The greater Los Angeles area is supposed to be MINE!”
OMG! Willard is Tangerine Tyrant just 40 years younger. Unhinged jealousy because someone is more popular than they are and they keep trying to attack that person and their wife and it always backfires because they are an unhinged mess. I think the big concern here is whether William is MENTALLY fit to be King. His raging and obsession with his brother who is not paying him any mind is bonkers.
Taking away their titles and continued harassment makes him look unbalanced. The younger generation isn’t keen on royalty and they like Harry and Meghan. Let him FAFO.
Bulliam gives off big “Mommy and Daddy love Harry more than me” energy. I still remember that section in Spare where William told Harry not to speak to him when they were both at Eton.
Leeway will end once Prince William is king. Once again Wilbur doesn’t get the irony here: because the leeway of him barely working ends when he inherits the throne the minute his father dies, he has to immediately step up. No more hiding behind sick wife/ school runs/ Forrest Lodge King William will be front and centre with daily red boxes and loads of daily official duties and responsibilities.
Poor Scooter. He spent all those years getting tutored by granny about how to be a sovereign but the only message he took from it all is that he will be the center of the universe. Unfortunately the real world doesn’t see him that way. We all see a not well educated, light weight who impresses no one and doesn’t get to tell the rest of the world whom they can invite on tours or to support their neediest folks. Reminds me of the scene from the movie Mozart, when the mad and less talented Salieri is being wheeled through the mad house and is blessing all the other residents who don’t even notice him.
The royalist and Willi want their cake and eat it. When do the royalists and Willi understand that with pushing Harry and Meghan completely out of the royal institution they lost all leeway and control over Harry and Meghan and that philanthropy does not depend on royal titles? If the left behind had agreed with Harry and Meghan a half in and half out role within the royal institution the royal family would have remained some kind of control over what Harry and Meghan are doing but the royal family lost the control when they pushed Harry and Meghan out. In hind sight this was probably the best for Harry and Meghan.
Taking away Harry’s and Meghan’s titles does not change anything. Harry is still royal by birth and Meghan is royal by marriage. Harry and Meghan will still do their philanthropic work. A lot of celebrities doing work as ambassadors for the UN, Unicef and other charitable organisation, donating, fundraising and highlighting their work. Taking away the titles would only make Harry and Meghan more interesting and would show of Willi as the petty ar*****le as he is.
1,000 years ago, on 30 November 1016, the Scandinavian leader Cnut became king of all England following the death of Edmund Ironside. What do you know about King Cnut? Ask a British or Danish person of a certain age, and they’ll probably tell you the story about King Cnut and the sea. According to this story, King Cnut sat on the seashore and tried to command the tide not to touch his feet, but the sea ignored him. This image is still used by modern political commentators to mock politicians who vainly fight against real or figurative tides of change.
It’s a shame Wilbur doesn’t read and is no doubt unfamiliar with the story of Cnut demonstrating that he couldn’t control the tide. No matter how powerful or rich or titled there are certain things we can’t control or command or insist on happening or ceasing to happen.
If only William put this much energy into his actual duties …
Someone needs to take him aside and tell him this is a terrible look, ranting about his brother and sister-in-law doing humanitarian work. He can’t stop them from being themselves.
Service is universal, dude.
So, let me get this – Meghan should stop doing something she’s been doing way before she married into that family, because the future king and queen have no real initiative/impact and are very boring and lazy? Yeah, that’s not going to happen. William is a solipsistic, narcissistic man-child who will NEVER grow. All these years, he has not cultivated any real/lasting interest and that vapid wife of his, has not helped. So, Harry and Meghan are now expected to shrink themselves for those two? That is not every going to happen. This reminds me of what Meghan said – that they told her to be 50% of herself. What kind of nonsense is that? I’m so glad Meghan left that family.
What are we doing here? Harry and Meghan are free to do whatever they want and there’s nothing the Palace or the press could do about it.
