‘The morning paper and the head-lines read 'Danger to the queen!'... ’

'...Buckingham Palace better tighten things up, the son of a bitch is mean.'
The Duke of Sussex has said he had enough material for two books, but he held back because he does not think his father and brother would “ever forgive” him.
In an interview with Bryony Gordon of The Daily Telegraph, Harry said: “It could have been two books, put it that way.”
Ms Gordon wrote that Harry told her the first draft was 800 pages – double the final manuscript which comes in at just over 400 pages.

Dear god, less a proposed publication than a blackmail warning, I suspect.

I wonder how many underpasses and white Fiats there are in Los Angeles? Just curious.

It’s like watching a toddler tantrum on an epic scale; having failed to elicit a reaction from the Palace with the Netflix series and the book, he’s been reduced to revealing - or threatening to reveal - more and more of his ‘truth’ in the hope of getting the attention he so clearly craves, to the extent that he is now, metaphorically speaking, lying on the floor drumming his feet, covered in snot and tears and howling uncontrollably (which rather begs the question of the whereabouts of his mysteriously silent mummy - sorry, wife).

I don’t know whether it’s more hilarious or sad that he clearly believes he is a second Nelson Mandela, while the vast majority of the public is trying to unhear the phrase ‘bespoke penis cushion’.

Publish and be damned.

I guess he has already fired all his best shots. So what would be the point of a second, (even) less convincing rant?

What an appalling shit, richly deserving of his ghastly controlling wife.

😏

"It’s like watching a toddler tantrum on an epic scale..."

A worse case of arrested development has never been seen.

"I guess he has already fired all his best shots."

I wouldn't be surprised if he's not kept something in reserve.

"What an appalling shit, richly deserving of his ghastly controlling wife."

Yes, about the best you can say is that they aren't making another couple unhappy...
