Sorta related; when Richard III made his ill-starred grab at the Monarchy that famously ended at Bosworth in 1485, a prime motivator had been the fact that his older brother King Edward IV had almost certainly been fathered as a result of their mom’s affair with a Welsh archer. Hence Edward was a bastard and his sons in the tower were continuations of that line, a fact certain to cause chaos in those already chaotic times. I don’t believe Harry is gonna do 23 and Me anytime soon, I do know he reportedly aquitted himself quite well in Afghanistan which is a form of Nobility that actually means something. So now he’s cut himself adrift and paid back public funds https://pagesix.com/2020/01/18/harry-and-meghan-abdicate-royal-titles-public-funds/I have no idea if he married poorly or not, if he did he won’t be the first. He did get a son out of the deal, which changes everything.

As far as I can see - although the doings of the Brit royals is way out of my field of vision - Harry was courageous in battle and now is courageous in life. He married a woman who seems to be lovely in all respects, and just as brave. The couple has caught no end of grief by bigots everywhere. They've told the world to bugger off, to use a Brit expression, and I say more power to them. Fare thee well, H&M.

Good Post....its his life, his choice and he did 'serve Queen and Country." The problem comes in IF the tax payers feel he is still on the Dole...after Brexit, they could easily do a Monarchyexit.

Good luck to them. But Megan, irrespective of background, is a SJW. That rarely ends well for the husband.

On one of these Royalty threads I post the picture of Washington crossing the Delaware. It is commonly accepted that George Washington owed his life at Brandywine to the merciful forebearance of the son of one Lord Pitfour, also nephew of the 5th Lord Elibank, said son and nephew AKA Major Patrick Ferguson. All a bunch of fuggin’ Brits I know and no friend to us Irish, but I gotta give credit where credit is due 😎

No idea what SJW stands for, but assume it's some kind of racist bigot term. If so, you betray yourself by using it.
And do NOT spell it out for us.

And do NOT spell it out for us. Not at all Rocky, SJW stand for "Social Justice Warrior". They are the lefties out to destroy your and my way of life by branding anyone who happens to be white, male, conservative etc. as evil.

SJW = Social Justice Warrior
A term to describe young naïve liberal idiots who feel they have a right and even a duty to interfere with normal people doing normal things, because they don’t like it.
ANTIFA is an extreme example of Social Justice Warriors

And do NOT spell it out for us. Too funny. In the very least, you should find out what it means before forming and stating your opinion on it. Just could be you agree with what was said.... or not

?? How long have you been on the ‘Fire? Ignorance is a valued commodity around here. Anyhoo... if Harry earned Nobility status then Rocky Raab is surely a King 😎 And not a Brit either......

Everyone is blaming the girl.
Its my contention this was Harry's plan all along and marrying Megan was a part of that plan.
Those in family's with two highly competitive brothers know exactly where I'm coming from.
Harry is more like his Mum and William his Dad.
I cant abide by his politics or his wife's especially their Obama/Oprah/Hollywood connections however if I were in his shoes I might do the same.
And those giving Rocky chit over his views on this are way off base and out of line on their comments.
