[ummmm]

Naomi - maybe in your world.

This is about Prince Philip and no one else.

it's customary for family members to attend funerals, even if their numbers have to be limited. Should Philip's second son show up?

[Mozz71]

Well, I know I said @9:27 that it wouldn't stop some people criticising her for staying away, but I didn't think it would only take 8 minutes. Well done Sqad, telling her to stay away and having a dig at her reasons for staying away all in the same post. Impressive.

In the real world, ummmm. Only a fool would trust a liar.

[ladybirder]

True.

[ummmm]

She was mistaken.

[naomi24]

Nonsense, ummmm. She's not stupid.... or maybe she is.

Once trust has been broken there is no going back, just what was Harry thinking when he was asked to do the Oprah interview, why didn't he take a step back and have a day or so to think about what the repercussions would be, he should've sat his wife down and told her that this was the wrong way to go, if this had happened then we wouldn't be in this predicament.

[ladybirder]

Her own family have appeared on TV talking about her so nobody made that up.
I'm glad he's coming, I think he should and that it's the right thing to do. I'm glad she's not coming because I admit I can't stand the sight of her and I'm not apologising for that.
I was very pleased to hear Her Maj was at her husband's bedside when he died.

LB, i haven't caught up with the news this morning, but i too am glad The Queen was at his bedside. It would be only right after so long together to be there at the end. I hope Harry does some bridge building, though as others have said perhaps it is too late for that, after that wretched interview.

[naomi24]

I think they will learn the hard way. They will become pariahs among the rich and famous who value their privacy. Damaging gossip never was appreciated in those circles.

[emmie]

I guess not.

[Jackdaw33]

I agree. Who would want them as house guests, not knowing what they might come out with afterwards.

//Should Philip's second son show up?//

Up to the family not me, they have to deal with the limited numbers.

All families have black sheep that usually appear at funerals.

[emmie]

I can't see that banning Prince Andrew is about to happen, he is the second son and has a right to be there.

[Jackdaw33]

Will the restrictions on numbers not be eased after Monday?

[ichkeria]

I can almost hear the click of the knitting needles :-)

[youngmafbog]

//Funerals can continue with up to 30 attendees. Weddings, outdoor receptions, and commemorative events including wakes will be able to take place with up to 15 attendees (in premises that are permitted to open).//

[emmie]

How many people are currently allowed to attend a funeral?
The current national lockdown rules on attending funerals mean services are allowed to go ahead with no more than 15 mourners.

But from April 12, the rules will be relaxed to allow 30 people to attend funeral services and wakes up to held for up to 15 people.

Best you get your hearing checked then, Ichkeria. These two aren't being criticised unfairly. They are the authors of their own misfortune.
