Harry’s Gran delusion
WHAT A slap in the face for our 96year-old Queen. The grandson she’s barely seen for two years, and who has repeatedly trashed the institution to which she’s devoted her life, arrives for tea and within hours is spewing out every cough and spit of what happened to an American TV network. The treachery of that alone is breathtaking.
But then, with towering arrogance, not only does he imply that of the Queen’s eight grandchildren HE is her favourite and that they have a special relationship (so special he didn’t bother coming to his grandfather’s memorial service), he’s also telling the world he’s her protector and has to ensure she has the right people around her.
What, from 5,000 miles away?
Her Maj must be shaking her head in disbelief and disappointment. She knows who’s protecting her and it ain’t Harry. It’s her own children, her grandchildren who actually live in this country, and a close-knit circle of devoted aides who’ve been with her for years and who’d rather cut out their tongues than blab to the media about what she’s said to them.
This interview Harry did with NBC Today was treachery, pure and simple. Never mind that he used the meeting with Granny to get himself publicity on American TV, one has to wonder about his mental state if he actually believes he is her protector.
It’s delusional and it’s coming from a mind that clearly struggles with reality. Maybe it’s because Meghan wasn’t there with her hand on his back digging in her fingers to stop him making a prize prat of himself, but it’s clear the man shouldn’t be let loose in front of a camera on his own.
And worse, in that interview he, yet again, invoked the memory of his mother telling us that, 26 years after her death, she’s always with him: “I feel her presence in almost
everything I do.” Really Harry? Really? This is the bloke who’s spent years bleating about how the media exploited Princess Diana.
So what is he doing now bringing her name into the mix at every opportunity? Clearly, he knows
that without her he’s of no interest to anyone. Unless of course he is blabbing about the Queen or attacking his father and brother.
He even had the audacity to say Diana had sorted Wills out and was now sorting him out: “It’s as
though she’s done her bit with my brother and now she’s very much helping me.”
This is fanciful bunkum. And does he understand the hurt this could cause William?
Sources say the Queen is desperate to see Archie and Lilibet.
“I’m trying to make it possible to get my kids to meet her,” he said. So knowing that, why didn’t they bring the kids with them? It feels cruel to deprive her.
He was also asked if he missed Charles and Wills – and dodged the question. What kind of man, a man who’s forever banging on about saving the world and everyone in it, can’t even bring himself to say a kind word about his father and brother?
I think Harry’s visit to the Queen was just news fodder for NBC Today. He and Meghan know their royal connections are what feeds their brand.
Without them, this pair are of no interest and, because contact with the royals has been virtually nonexistent these past two years, they had to renew it to titillate American interest in them.
Imagine how boring that interview would have been if all Hazza had to talk about was the Invictus Games?
But didn’t our Queen deserve better than to be used to provide juicy tidbits for an American news network?
And if Harry’s relationship with her is as special as he says it is, then the man who’s done monumental damage to the monarchy should be ashamed of betraying it.
