Had the Beeb on the radio overnight, and (I think) it was them talking about Harry and Meg grumping over having to call the local cops for intruders on their grounds in LA. Harry stinking shocked when his official security got yanked and now they have to fork over for their own.

Wonder if those two are hot-footing it across the pond as we speak, and what is taking place behind the scenes.

Ouch.

Probably just Harry. Meg coming along would cause more of a fuss and remove an opportunity for a reproachment.

Yep... There's this:

Prince Harry prepares to fly back to Britain following Philip's death - but will Meghan come too? Duke of Sussex faces having to quarantine for five days after arriving from US
  • Prince Harry has not been back to the UK since March 2020 and was last pictured with Philip on May 8, 2019
  • Source today told Dailymail.com that Harry would 'do his utmost' to return to Britain for grandfather's funeral
  • May be permitted to use a diplomatic exemption to waive quarantine rules applying to flights from the USA

Prince Harry’s return to the UK for his grandfather Prince Philip’s funeral will be a pivotal moment for a divided Royal Family still nursing deep wounds over his and Meghan’s bombshell Oprah Winfrey interview.

Harry will be attending the event at St George’s Chapel, Windsor, most likely next week, and although there has been no word on whether heavily-pregnant Meghan would join him, it is believed unlikely in the circumstances.

Harry is likely to make the journey to London by private jet from his home near Los Angeles and it is understood he may be permitted to use a diplomatic exemption to waive the normal Covid quarantine rules applying to flights from the USA.

There has not yet been an official statement from the couple on Philip's death.

It has been reported that Harry was already largely self-isolating at the £11m mansion near Santa Barbara from when his grandfather entered hospital.

It is thought he will be tested for Covid-19 before departure from the US and upon arrival in the UK, instead of being subject to the normal 10-day quarantine, though travellers are allowed to leave quarantine if they test negative after five days.

It is not known where he will stay during his stay in the UK, nor for how long he will remain after the funeral.

The reunion of the Duke of Sussex with his brother William and father Prince Charles will be awkward enough following his and Meghan’s shocking accusations of racism in the TV show aired only last month.

Despite the obvious rift, the Queen will expect her grandsons to put on a united front, along with the rest of the Royals as a mark of respect for the late Duke of Edinburgh.

Whether the unity will prove more than a public façade remains to be seen, but some royal sources hope that the brothers’ first meeting for more than a year could lead to some kind of reconciliation.

If Meghan were to join Harry for the funeral, a royal rapprochement is considered less likely to happen, particularly after she told Oprah that Kate has made her cry during the run-up to her wedding.

Prince Philip's death comes just a month after Harry and Meghan gave an interview to Oprah in which they alleged racism in the Royal Family. It aired when Philip was in the hospital

A source close to the family told Dailymail.com today: 'Harry will absolutely do his utmost to get back to the UK and be with his family.

'He will want nothing more than to be there for his family, and particularly his grandmother, during this awful time.

'Meghan is obviously pregnant so she will need to take advice from her doctors about whether it is safe for her to travel, but I think Harry will definitely go.'

While Harry claimed in the interview to have always had a good relationship with the Queen, it's unclear what kind of relationship, if any, he now has with Prince William and his father, Prince Charles.

According to CBS host Gayle King, a close friend of Oprah, Prince William, 38, reached out to Prince Harry after the explosive interview, but talks were ‘not productive’.

Harry’s claims that William is ‘trapped’ inside the monarchy are believed to have caused deep offence. Some royal experts believe that William is willing to give his brother a final chance.

The pair would almost certainly have met anyway on July 1 for the unveiling of a statue of Diana in London, but there was always a question mark over that reunion because of Meghan’s imminent due date, which has not been publically confirmed.

It is not clear if Harry had planned to return in June, when Prince Philip would have turned 100, and when a Trooping of the Colour was planned.

My father was at a luncheon with Prince Phillip at the Officers Club at the Washington Navy Yard in 1952, before Elizabeth became queen. They were both lieutenant commanders at the time. Pop always said that Prince Phillip was a "nice guy".

May God have mercy on his soul.

Well, 99 is a pretty good run, I'm not sure the surgery did him any favors but sometimes even very elderly people can have that sort of surgery and live on for another five to ten years in reasonable health.

And now we know what is likely to be the major story in the British news for the next week or so, at least until the State Funeral.

what kind of surgery did he have? ETA never mind found it.

I thought I recalled it thusly but I have less and less trust in my memory these days. So, I looked it up.

I forgot that Meghan is very pregnant. It's probably a good excuse to keep her home, away from the family.

And yes, the Queen carries good, long-lived genes. She probably has a few more rounds left in her yet.

I hope so. This will take a lot out of her--but remember this is the Lady who as a girl drove tractors and stayed willingly with her parents during the Blitz in London, and gave speeches / did activities to boost morale, especially of young people her age. She's no softie.

I PRAY she will OUTLIVE CHARLES---William would make a GOOD king---but as for Charles, I say "God save us FROM that King!"

There is a lot to be said for a person who had such a long and close marriage, under the pressure of living in a fishbowl. He was a role model of attention to duty, served his county honorably in the military, always supported his armed forces, and acted like a decent human being. May he rest in peace.

There are rumors that Phillip actually fathered William via AI, not Charles.
Too far out there. Although William looks so much like his mom it is hard to say who his daddy is by looking at him.
There were lots of rumors, however, of Philip having a kid or two on the wrong side of the bed.
Add to that his infamous advice to Charles re his impending marriage to Diana: If it doesn't work out, get a mistress.

Just for your reference---I hadn't had time to get online all week much but heard--at the 2 pm news--on WSB that he had died.

This same mega-radio station in Atlanta, which can be heard from Atlanta to Ohio, has been reporting every hour on the hour (plus the half-hours) of the death of some Rapper calling himself "DMX"---who, they said, had "fathered 15 children."

He was 50. "Collapsed and died at home"---probably from a drug overdose.

And on We're Socialist, Brother, THAT news so out-weighed the death of Prince Phillip that this was the first I'd heard of it--at 2 pm on the day he died when the news broke at 7 am.............

Wikipedia: Earl Simmons, known by his stage name DMX, was an American rapper, songwriter, and actor. He began rapping in the early 1990s and released his debut album It's Dark and Hell Is Hot in 1998...

I imagine he is finding that to be true.....

When he was a young man he did have a "reputation," even my mother mentioned it (and she was not a serious "royal watcher." But it was an open secret, so he probably does have a love child or two; if he does I suspect the families were paid off long ago because these days a lot of the current generation of middle-aged playboy royals in other parts of Europe are being forced to acknowledge (and often pay back support for) adult children (DNA tests).

Phillip also apparently said Harry when he was told that Harry wanted to marry Meghan, something like:

"My dear boy, one steps out with actresses one does not marry them!"

To me that sounds like vintage Phillip - just like get a mistress...

The rumored kids was way back when he was in the navy and he stepped out with some young polynesian girls for a few days of fun. He got his ass handed to him by his fleet commander for what he did, that's well documented and is even mentioned in the series about the Queen. Only he caught heat, the others did not, only because he was married to Elizabeth.

Very young. His comrades' thoughts on it were very enlightening. Also, the crown covered up his other "indiscretions" as well.

My mother referred to him as a "known philanderer" and there were also strong hints that he had several mistresses over the years (think "stepping out with actresses,") but as hinted at in the fictional series The Crown; after that trip, he was very careful to be totally discrete.

Or that is the story, the only people who really know or knew for sure are The Queen, Phillip, and any lady friends he may have had.

That would be pretty typical of the "traditional" upper-class way of doing things, I've even heard said by people in England especially of certain backgrounds that "Diana's problem was she just didn't understand that having a mistress was normal for royal men and men of his social class, which was strange because she grew up a toff herself."

Again, I'm not judging Phillip, he was a man of his time and even if he had a few special lady friends, he didn't parade them in public and was very quiet about it.

Too bad he missed out on covid. Too bad covid missed out on covid, for that matter.

Thank you. People should not be fooled by or in awe of these double-minded imps. It is dangerous.

That "chapel" is for show. They have at least one more, for their true "religion," complete an altar for human sacrifices.

yeah about that, we're told to not judge others lest we be judged in the same manner.

We are called to judge righteously, and distinguish between right and wrong. He is nothing great to be worshipped, he put his pants on the same way we all do.

But I am not judging, either, I am spelling out that he is and always was one of the globalists. Also, to judge is to impose a sentence, I firmly believe.

You would be sickened and appalled as to what these people- all the globalists, not just the "royalty," do/are into.

I dunno Tammy, I sense a whole lot of judgment from you.
