This may not be a debate, but I think the Queen of England did a fairly good job of upstaging the 'Harry and Meghan' interview with her broadcast. I won't be watching the Harry and Meghan interview, I don't have a sick bucket big enough to last the whole thing, and no doubt we'll be treated to the 'highlights' ad nauseum, which is I think an appropriate way of putting it.
@indonesia-phil saidI haven't followed it either, except enough to know that the racist British press drove them to leave their "Royal duties".

It’s all oxygen for the fire of their own little brand management.
@earl-of-trumps saidThat's close enough, beyond that I wouldn't bother.
Haven't followed it that closely but close enough to know that Harry is a grandson to the Queen.
All I can say is... he's a crud.
Your second paragraph refers; fair comment.
@divegeester saidFrom what I've seen on news reports and in terms of which of them was the most sickening, I make it a draw.

@divegeester saidHey it's not our fault that the allure of California girls stole your Prince.

Obviously not giving a toss about the royal family (although I have discussed cookies with the Dutch king and queen in a shop Salzburg) I haven’t paid this story much attention.
So I gandered over to the Beeb (BBC) to see what they had to say.
My first reaction was: Meghan’s black?
My second reaction was: I couldn’t finish the article. It just doesn’t interest me.
If Meghan felt uncomfortable in the royal family, it’s probably less to do with colour and far more to do with breeding.
She’s an American actress, not a Dutchess who’s father has owned the same land for centuries with all the males of the family having been educated at Eton.
Wallis Simpson wasn’t accepted either.
The good news for Meghan is that the royals will probably attend her funeral.
Oh well.
@shavixmir saidThey are all as bad as each other. All this public mudslinging is unedifying but it will build their brand in the US. They are already multimillionaires. I sure Megan was treated poorly by some in the family and by some in the institution, she’s not the first and she won’t be the last.

The Monarchy as a corporate institution is of value to the UK, the “family” are largely a bunch of flakey wastrels. When the Queen passes away there will be wholesale re-engineering of the institution, its funding, scale and scope.
