respective books.

They're stuck on a level as neither has a college education and degree.

Will they become the new Duke and Dutchess of Windsor (Edward/Wallis)?

And who's left to do the duties of Prince Phillip and Prince Andrew?

Harry and Meghan are NOTHING like them.

Meghan could perhaps revive her lifestyle blog. She could probably get TV or movie work if she wanted. Or she could even go back to calligraphy, if they got really hard up.

Oh, and as for education, a guess a degree in communications from Northwestern is not a college education.

Harry did graduate from Eton College, which while not exactly a college as in the United States, would be at least the equivalent of an Associates degree. And at a pretty demanding school at that. He then completed officer training at Sandhurst. He's never been an academic star, but he's no uneducated ignoramus.

Selfish perhaps. Despicable? Seems harsh.

Anyway, they were born the way they are.
Hard to believe any of them but Charles and Andrew as maybe despicable for behavior unbecoming to down right illegal.

about the current members of the British Royal Family being despicable. I did point out that the Duke and Duchess of Windsor were. Indeed, he was a serious Nazi sympathizer, and it's a Very Good Thing he was not King at the outbreak of WWII.

Plus, it makes you look ignorant to type Whales when you probably mean Wales. Charles is the Prince of Wales. That title does not, at this point, apply to any other royal. Presumably, when he becomes King, his son William will be invested as Prince of Wales.

The controversial titles of Duke and Duchess of Windsor are expected to be revived by the Queen, who wants to give her youngest son Prince Edward and his fiancée a special gift on the eve of their wedding

In 1999, to be precise. And that was then he and his bride were given the titles of Earl and Countess of Wessex. I honestly don't think that the Dukedom of Windsor was ever under consideration. And probably won't be for several more generations, given the bad name David (as he was known to the family) and Wallis gave to that title.

Are you sure you are from the same timeline I'm from?

They may as well stay in London as royals if that is all they aspire to--especially Harry.

What is it with celebrity worship in this country? No more Kardashians.

They are celebrities.

I can actually see them doing widespread environmental and charitable work, like Diana did with land mines. I think their celebrity will be used for great causes. They will earn their keep and our admiration doing something about climate change.

“If you don’t like it too bad.”

I posted a thread. Everyone can comment.
I just repeated what you said. That would be a lot of people.
Never disagreed with you.
Never said you shouldn’t post
Just wondered why? You care enough to expend all this energy on my puny thread.
I wasn’t throwing down any gauntlet.

But have a great day.
