That was something that made me snort, the whole we got cut off financially sob story. He has millions from his mother, she has millions from acting. They have a multi million dollar property in a very swanky neighbourhood. They aren't exactly in a shelter and eating at the local mission. Plus why would the royal family fund them living in America and not doing any official duties? Come on now.

@mn5 what's an idealic villa?
He's been listing his School-C results in some other thread... I think we can take a guess that English wasn't a high mark.
TBF - I think "idyllic" is beyond the spelling-capabilities of most people who think of "memes" as a valid pastime.
83% motherfucker. It’s the other subjects I was terrible at.
....and it goes without saying I am far too dumb to make memes.
fuck off you know your exact result from a 30 year old exam
either that, or you are sadder than i thought
30? Fuck not all of us are that old.
Pretty sure I remember. Mind you I didn't get many other qualifications if any...

So you can remember your English result from 20-odd years ago, but you can't quite remember if you have any other qualifications?
How do you go at job interviews mate?

I've had one in the last 20 years. They're pretty old school eh...

@voodoo Yeah, I saw that.
I also saw the story in the herald covered it, also put in Serena Williams response as well.
By fuck I hate the British media, but reading stuff / heralds coverage of this and other things the last few days, it does appear the NZ Media is at exactly the same level. Although perhaps with a healthier dose of delusion.

Yeah, in amongst all the celebrity bluster, the whole thing came across to me as somebody just airing the dirty family laundry. And that's never cool.
Is there a family out there which doesn't have a member who'd question the colour of the kids? Is that racist? What does racist even mean anymore? And as for poor old Meghan having a cry after a fight with her sister-in-law ... is that news? Really?

@mokey If someone told you they had cancer or COVID, even if you didn't like them, you would believe them. Why then are people not trusted when they say they've had mental health problems?
Piers Morgan opened his employer up to litigation and an advertising boycott. He's still free to have opinions and voice them, but he's not free from the consequences of doing so.
I doubt he'll be out of work for long.
Name: Meghan Markle
Occupation: Actress -
@mokey said in Royal drama:
The British press are the absolute worst, but it's hard to make a strong we want privacy argument when you do a whole 15 min segment on James Corden followed by 3 hours with Oprah. And the podcast stuff they've done. If all media turned around and said ya know what? You are right. Here's privacy, no more stories or pics, they would hate it.
That would be gold

@mn5 Lifetime high huh?
@Kruse studying for an arts paper is tantamount to cheating.
I passed Stage 3 Eng Lit papers based on having read the Classics Illustrated comic version of the novel when I was a kid. [/piston wristed gibbon]
I can't remember my School C Eng result but whatever - all its got me is wasting too much time on the interweb arguing shit with Polish chicks
It’s not quite scoring four touchdowns for Polk High back in 68 but it’s pretty close.
Or '82

Imagine Uncle Rico and Bundy in the same team......
That’s the stuff of dreams right there.

William and Kate did a kids charity thing and of course got questions about the interview flung at them. He said he hasn't spoken to Harry, and I see people on twitter mocking him for it.
In all honesty, if a sibling of mine went on Oprah to trash me and my spouse and the whole family with racism accusations, I'd need more than a few days to simmer down. Probably more like years. I think Harry is going to realise pretty soon that the nuclear option wasn't perhaps the best choice. Short term headlines, sure. Long term?

As someone with mixed kids let me answer - musing over what the colour of the kids skin is going to be is not racist. Being concerned about the colour of the kids skin is. But who knows what happened here? They should never have raised it if they weren't willing to give specifics.

@no-quarter yeah, what was actually said and by who. I really hate the way the whole family was thrown under the bus for alleged negative comments. That has a real Trumpian air of "people say..."

The family were probably more concerned the kid would be another ginger...
