Harry and megan interview
Comments

Even if she did, I don't think it would be for too long before William takes over, Charles is no spring chicken anymore.

Personally I think the queen should retire and enjoy the last years of her life without the stress of being the monarch after all she has done it all if her adult life
This would also allow younger her to take over and be more in touch with society I would like to see William take over rather than Charles but not to the detriment of his young children -
I’ve never heard of the Queen having any hobbies as such, so retiring might be a really bad idea, what would she do instead? I’m sure she has thought about her age etc and decided to carry on for as long as possible. In fact in private I bet they all agree that the Queen does a better job than Prince Charles could ever do, so why not carry on.

I think the queen has always kept horses as a hobby and a business to race. Also racing pigeons and supports arsenal foot ball club. The queen is part of a monarchy that stays on throne to death. Be very sirprised if she retired, she handed a lot of the jobs to Charles.

I agree with that. But,back to topic.
Meghan suicide thoughts, she says she had no help from the Royal family! Didn't she say that she didn't even tell Harry? Or are they supposed to read her thoughts? She says she confronted one of the household staff, this is 'not' asking her 'family' (the Royal) for help. This member will have some severe rules to work with, and well, probably thought, is she Kidding me, and tell her to get on with it.
I am a severely depressed person, have attempted suicide several times, i still hate life. But blaming other people,or using it as a weapon, really boils my blood, just because she said it, doesn't make it true, sounds more like feeling sorry for herself, she had other channels to persue if she was that bad. Anyone feeling these thoughs, i strongly recommend that you seek professional help by any and all means available. -
I have to add, why can't the fact just be that she couldn't handle the way the Royal family live? Or we're they expected to change their whole way of living?

Hi @Audinut70
I'm sorry to hear about your depression and past difficulties with your mental health. if you ever feel that you would benefit from more support around this, please let us know.
You are right that anyone experiencing troubling thoughts should see their GP/seek professional help, and I just wanted to leave a list of organisations here that people can talk to if things are becoming too much:- The Samaritans are contactable 24/7 by calling 116123
- SHOUT crisis volunteers are also available 24/7 by texting 'SHOUT' to 85258
- or, find your local NHS urgent mental health helpline
Fascinating topic BTW and I think the real winner in this situation was Oprah Winfrey!

Definitely, the chance of 'ever' getting an interview like that again, struck twice by lightning comes to mind.
Thanks for your concern, ive done all the support, just deal with it myself now. Ive had a lifetime to learn. -
I don't usually comment on topics like this, however I have the greatest respect for the Queen and all that she has done for this country. In World War 2, she served her country just like thousands of others and then at the tender age of 27 she took on a responsibility to serve this country for the rest of her life. The Queen has not always got things right but I believe she genuinely does her best for her country, but at times, like anyone else would, puts her family first. The Queen has served a lifetime of duty and for me that must never be forgotten. At the end of the day, in the middle of all of this is a grandmother, father, son, brother and wider family, they should be left in peace to address their differences. It is not for me to say what the truth is but I do believe Harry and Megan have severely misjudged this, there were more appropriate ways to handle their concerns. Thank you

I truly hope for Harry's sake they never split up
She will take him to the cleaners and he will have given up all his family support -
My thoughts exactly, i think he's smitten, to do what he has done, after only a few years together, one hell of a sacrifice. She's got the US behind her, he's totally crucified his family. I do feel a 'bit' sorry for him though. The things we men will do for love!!! I gave up friends and my interests for mine.

Let’s hope they drew up and signed prenuptial agreements @janer1967

@Audinut70 it's not just men that make sacrifices for love
I gave up living in my home town near friends and family, I supported us both financially , I gave my husband experiences he had never had , I took on his children
Then had it all thrown back in my face when he exchanged me for a younger , newer model
All genders make sacrifices for the ones they love and thankfully most enrich each others lives -
Sorry to hear that janer1967. I should have wrote what people will do for love. My main point though, Harry is going to be a lonely prince if their marriage falls apart. To through your family to the wolves! That is one massive sacrifice.
