so of that Stuff headline and summary...
Meghan and Prince Harry check out $41.6m Vancouver mansion in hunt for family home
​The Duchess of Sussex is on the hunt for a dream home in Canada, reportedly having zeroed in on a CAN$35.88mn (NZ$41.6m) mansion in Vancouver for her new life abroad with Prince Harry and baby Archie.
I thought those titles were no more?
I think he is still Prince Harry but no longer the Duke of Sussex?
He is Prince Harry. And Duke of Sussex. But he can't use HRH. Apparently that is a big deal
Names and titles are a strange thing with them, watching some series on Netflix at the moment.
They changed their last name to Windsor during WW1 as they had a German surname...King George VI ( The Queens father) was born Albert..
The Queen and Dukes kids, Charles, Anne, the pedophile etc are in fact Windsor-Mountbatten ( Philip battled for years to pass on his last name to his children)

@Hooroo @canefan ah ok, I thought part of the deal was losing thier 'titles'
Apparently the Queen considered stripping the Duke title, but decided it would look petty. Can't strip HRH or Prince other than by Act of Parliament.

So he keeps HRH. But reportedly isn't allowed to use it?

Correct. I don't think they could actually legally prevent him, but that's the agreement.

I guess that leaves room to welcome him back if he changes his mind....

Yeah, William will probably need the support after the Queen, Charles and his siblings start to drop off.

@Hooroo I don't think they can afford that can they? Harry is worth about 50M and MM less than 5M I think I read.....
I honestly have no idea.
And I think a whole lot more of you for it

That video of Ginge Kardashian and the Skank, Duchess of The View was, as Bruce McAvaney would say, "special". There really is a rich lode to be harvested highlighting the life and times of these two most very important kiddies.
I'm enjoying this imbroglio nearly as much as video highlights of Their Kurtley in South Africa, passing good ball to fans in the third row back from the fence, being a turnstile and catching the ball with his bonce.

Sauces tell me that Ms Markle was allowed to go on a long holiday of Canada in November and December because there was a fear in high places that she would try to intervene in the UK election with some sort of anti-Brexit or anti-Conservative statement. The Daily Mail report that she is now absolutely chomping at the bit to get involved in campaigning in the US for anti-Trump candidates. I don't think Ms Markle ever respected the idea that the UK Crown and Royal Family stay out of party politics.

It is becoming increasingly plausible that she had her own agenda all along and used Harry as a springboard to achieve her personal goals. She has form in that regard. She split with her first husband once she gained fame on Suits. For someone used to dealing with a degree of fame it seems odd that she should be apparently overwhelmed by the attention she got marrying into the royal family (I watched part of an interview of the Kiwi editor of the Sun the other day who reckoned that Markle and the other royals are well protected from unwanted intrusions from the media since the Diana tragedy and that their treatment of her was overwhelming positive before she started throwing her toys from the cot) and within two years basically want out. I think she has Harry wrapped around her finger, and expected to be able to wield more real influence than she actually had, and when she got sick of the real royal life she's switched to plan B. Meanwhile Harry and their son will live far from his family, she is perfectly used to living apart from hers. Of course it is possible that Harry wanted out, coloured by his experience as a young boy forced to live through the death of his mother at the hands of the media, and sick of the scrutiny aimed at he and his new wife. Maybe they'll sit down with Martin Bashir someday and enlighten us all

"there was a fear in high places that she would try to intervene in the UK election with some sort of anti-Brexit or anti-Conservative statement. The Daily Mail report that she is now absolutely chomping at the bit to get involved in campaigning in the US for anti-Trump candidates."
Oh? With a soft degree in international studies ("This is a globe of the world - point to the USA. Oh good girl, here take this Credit voucher") and theatre, yes, theatre, she is well equipped to know nothing of politics. She went from school to university to a nice little job binding books in a bookshop and straight into acting at 23. A year later she's sniffing around her first victim.
So, by age 24 she had done nothing to educate herself on politics. With this deep knowledge she eventually pronounced Donald Trump 'divisive' and 'misogynistic' which, by any objective measure he is not. One does not get to the top tier as a successful corporate mogul without educated focus and clear awareness of the difference between crass and class.
Look at his wife's independent effort, his daughter running a corporation bigger than a sometimes successful couple of islands in the Ta$man, the women he has employed there, the women he has employed at the top level in the White House - not because he feels obliged to do so but because he values their abilities.
Creepy Joe Biden in public all but slips his hands down their pants, teenage girls included, and the US politicians and media quickly look away, over towards Trump Tower and snarl "May Allan the Bomb Maker strike you down for your sins".
That sort of populist garbage from sheilas on the make, like MeMeMeMeghan, makes a laughing stock of wymminses in public life who pretend to be so aloof. Gillard's gaggle of wide arksed waddlers leveled similar accusations at Tony Abbott - he has a wife, three daughters, a sister who left her conventional life, husband and children, to shack up with her girlfriend, who he has publicly supported all the way. They think people are too stupid to see through their hypocrisy.
You point out other steps she has taken, Canefan, which paint the clearest of pictures about motive. It takes a certain self absorption to separate a new husband from his closest mates, and a platinum grade pass in utterly unscrupulous to force his move to another country, a world away from his aged grandparents, his father, brother and family.
Harry had no difficulty living in Britain and neither did the impatient missus - she has made it up because she doesn't have the guile, the wit to take what she wants surreptitiously, little by little. There have been a couple of extended comments made by mature Britons originally from the Middle East, who hold / have held senior public positions, giving the lie to what the tart from LA asserts.

If she is as Machiavellian as you weirdos are trying to make out, then one thing must be clear...
That woman must fuck like a demon. No way a bloke is stepping away from that much unless the pussy is straight fire.
I seem to recall an interview where Harry insinuated that he worried that he wouldn't find someone who would marry him and put up with the circus that surrounds him. At least one of his previous longterm girlfriends reportedly broke it off because she didn't want to live that life. I think Markle probably had ideas about what her life as a princess would be like. Harry is in love with her and badly wants things to work. And when it wasn't what she expected, rather than work at making something of it she decided to agitate to change her situation, he is happy to oblige and damn the consequences

As a Ginge and Skank tragic I find there is always more to discover about this exciting couple, as they journey throughout the USA searching for the Jerry Springer Show studios.
You will be surprised and delighted to see here the Duchess of Kardashian as a "Deal or No Deal" Suitcase Opener, 13 years ago - it is so exciting! You will also see Howie, who is a judge on one of those rich Simon Something singing talent contest / shows - can't be more specific 'cos the wife is asleep and she knows all their names and such.

Boom! Harry & Megs give the red tops the big fuck off ski!!
Astonishing move. It's almost like they don't know that these papers are the primary reading of their UK fan base!
By don't know, I mean don't care. By It's almost like, I mean They clearly.

@MajorRage do these papers really care if they get a quote or not? I highly doubt it'll make a difference.
I'm surprised they even noticed the official communication.
