Dear, Fragile Prince Harry

[Paigntonian]

Says the British tabloids 'destroyed' his mental health. Doesn't mention the wife. Ergo he was, or is, mentally ill.

[Bobbisox1]

I can see where he's coming from, if you'd seen your own Mum pursued mercilessly by the press daily, I think it just might have an effect on you

[Paigntonian]

Bobbi. No-one attacked the queen and criticism of Megan and Harry were so mild as to be utterly unmemorable.

[Paigntonian]

Bobbi: Sorry, I meant Diana and, sad to say, she was no saint.

Meghan knew exactly what she was after from the start, and that wasn't to be a working royal in the UK. She made a bee-line for Harry, and like many weaker males, he didn't stand a chance. First thing to do is get pregnant, and the then you are well and truely in. IMHO.

[bednobs]

not to them, clearly.
Yes he must have been mentally ill. So what?
Cue a long list of people moaning that if they want to just disappear, they should keep a low profile (while at the same time giving them a higher profile by talking about them)

[woofgang]

goodness what a nasty thread

[Spungle]

Bobbi, I suppose you are aware that Harry's mum wasnt the Queen?

[Mamyalynne]

I added the link so what he said in interview could be put in context.

[Bobbisox1]

Where did I say his mum was the queen ?
His Mum Diana was pursued by the press so it would have had a lasting effect on him

// if you'd seen your own Mum pursued mercilessly by the press daily, //

er dont you mean if you'd seen your own Mum pursue the press relentlessly - you might well do different - yes I wd

[Spungle]

I very much sympathise with Prince Harry, especially given the way he was himself a victim of the media himself because of the way Diana had the love/hate relationship with the press who have to bear some responsibility in her death. However, whether seeking a private life in America whilst simultaneously appearing on TV shows with the likes of James Corden and Oprah Winfrey is going to work out well, I suppose time will tell.

[Bobbisox1]

I bet Ms Winfrey is spitting feathers now :0)

Dear fragile prince harry has brought s lot of stuff on himself.
He’s not the only person in the world who’s had very awful things happen, and whilst I appreciate he’s fairly high profile (partly, or even mainly due to his own fault)he just needs to get over it which ever way works for him.
I don’t think he’s mentally ill, I think he’s easily led and completely besotted with Megan, who is doing him no favours.
I’m getting/have got totally fed up with him and his moaning.

[jennyjoan]

for all the attention Harry and Meg don't want - there has been plenty of wanting attention from them

do think that when they left UK for good - they should remain quiet .

as somebody said on here - if Harry was just a regular bloke down the street - there's no way Meg would have pursued him.

I do think when they "settle" - Harry will want home.

Every single one of my friends who emigrated - Australia, America, South Africa, Saudi Arabia - all suffered from home sickness and only their children are born in those countries - they would be home like a shot ie Northern Ireland.

Runaway formerly called prince admits to being mentally unfit to hold positions of responsibility and status.

“goodness what a nasty thread”

Isn’t it just.
Glad it’s not just me :-)

Easy to be critical if you’ve never been in the firing line and in the awkward position of having to be careful how you respond.

[Mamyalynne]

What always makes me smile is that the very people who claim they should stay out of the limelight and be quiet are the first to start a thread the minute either of them squeaks a word.

As someone who suffers from mental health issue, I find your callous attitude to mental illness is a sad reflection on you.
I am unable to work due to my illness.

Harry is just trying to get on with his life the best he can.
