Sorry for a second potentially controversial topic this morning. Last night I was made to watch the above by SWMBO (that's my excuse).
If I understood correctly, Harry accused Camilla of cooperating with the press in order to rehabilitate her own image and in doing so she briefed against Meghan.
Now I completely understand why Camilla would need to build her own image, especially if she wanted to eventually marry Charles. I understand that she would want to get the press on her side. What I don't understand is why she would want to brief against Meghan. What would be in it for her?
Can anyone suggest a reason that makes any sense?
I must admit that I'm not a Royal devotee and know very little about their shenanigans so there may be a very obvious reason that I've missed.
Mick

I don’t care, I’m bored with all this he said she said rubbish! I’m a royalist and think it’s about time this all went away

I am a republican and I think they should all go away.

I'm clean out of shits to give. I'm not sure what his end game is, bit I can't help thinking he isn't going to come out of this smelling of roses.

I know that he is privileged but I am also aware the being the “spare” cannot be good for anyone’s mental health.
In many ways I can admire his coming out and stating his position but I don’t think he is going about things in the right way. Knowing that nothing you can do will ever change your position must be dreadfully undermining.
My opinion is that he needs professional help but, as observed earlier, in any other family social services would be involved but being who they are that kind of help isn’t forthcoming. Clearly behaviour that might see anyone else getting treatment is acceptable if you don’t need anything from the NHS.

It's been asserted a couple of times in this thread, but could someone explain why social services be involved? I asked my wife's friend who is a social worker and he seemed baffled as to why there would have been an intervention at any point.

I thought and think that making the two boys walk the walk at their mother's funeral was child abuse.

I thought and think that making the two boys walk the walk at their mother's funeral was child abuse. Can't agree there. I was excluded when 10 years old. Closure was hard to find when things were kept from me. Itwould have been better to have had everything explained.

They were a bit young for a stiff upper lip very public performance and spectacle.

They were a bit young for a stiff upper lip very public performance and spectacle. True. But they already knew what was expected of them. Also as Kate has already mentioned, not being in that procession would have been damaging, maybe even more so than being there. At the source of all this turmoil was the relationship of KC with his mistress.

"Boo hoo, woe is me, the media are too intrusive." Says man to the media he invited to hear him talk.
The only interest I have in this is a sweepstake on when the palace finally admit Charles isn't the father and cut him loose for good.

The only interest I have in this is a sweepstake on when the palace finally admit Charles isn't the father and cut him loose for good. To me, this is the heart of the matter. I don't see anything that has been put before the public so far as sufficient to warrant his attack on his family. However, this scenario could definitely cause the amount of bile we are seeing:- 1. Young boy absolutely idolizes mother. 2. Early death of mother causes great trauma. 3. As a young man, finds out his mother was a slapper. 4. He blames the family for making his mother a slapper, because he can't bear to think she was a slapper. 5. Marries a woman who pussy-whips him into going public with it all to make money. He might be making a lot of money now, but within a year or so the public will get bored and move on, and then he will have to think about his future - and it won't be as a senior royal.
