Palace Confidential Episode 8: Harry's delusions of grandeur

On our royal TV talkshow this week, it’s double awkward! First, how DID Harry - and his hapless handlers - allow himself to be pranked into that oh-so embarrassing phone call with a fake Greta Thunberg (Chunga Chunga Island anyone?)!
And why was it that Kate couldn’t bear to LOOK at Meghan in the Abbey? Royal Editor Rebecca English, columnist Sarah Vine and diarist Richard Eden give host Jo Elvin the inside story in a riveting NEW episode of Palace Confidential. Plus a body language expert looks behind Meghan’s ‘gameface’ to reveal what’s she’s REALLY thinking (and it’s not just how snubbed she feels by those front row Royals).

Meghan managed to kiss a prince and turn him into a frog.

[@laurenmartin3146]

I think he was a toad. Frog in the making

[@combattinghate3440]

Yet, all the beautiful ladies, want to be with him.. deal with it!!

[@p.b.5362]

Perfect 🤣 👍

[@atrinder8944]

To be honest Megan looks like she’s loving the argument between brothers.

[@yvettevernet4759]

Because she foisted it?

[@stardustgirl2904]

She's a minipultive PERSON! Rotten!

[@stardustgirl2904]

@Jess Stone Women like her are insucure, and always have to minipulate the people around them, and one day maybe Harry will see it after he has lost his family!

[@asdfjkl7430]

She's a sociopath.

[@sheilasmyth5874]

I totally agree- she wanted out and took him with her

[@annettagrasso3162]

William and Kate are a beautiful couple, have class!

[@briza2022]

In the beginning they didn't, it seems you forgot or are covering up history.

[@BabsLongfellow]

The umbrella picture is a complete set up. Everything is an act for Meghan, she has no class. I have no words about Harry. The body language "expert" is a bit laughable, maybe you can upgrade from this rookie.

She's trash, only cares for herself and her agenda.

Yes she was a bit pathetic.

[@CGH250]

She’s a big performer - unnatural large fake smiles in public!🙄

[@pallasathena1369]

The whole problem is Meghan. Her ego demanded a prince in her pocket. And the power of removing a prince from the palace to create her own new kingdom in Los Angeles... The Power!

No, I'm not fan of Megan, but she isn't the entire problem. What you're seeing with Horrible Harry is what "the firm" has covered up and hidden from the world his entire life.

[@DE-xt7jv]

She wasn’t acting, she looked pleased. Maybe she got what she wanted. I think she had manipulated him against his family. One year later, they air an interview on Commonwealth Day

[@steppy3736]

Because, let's be honest, she is not a "highly trained actress".

[@donnajarvis9542]

Megan loves Megan.

[@DH007-w2d]

No. Megan loves Queen Megan.

[@carolberwindscheffler2708]

Don't you find it concerning that Megan is enjoying all this when everyone is upset??? It is odd to say the least.

[@jrg4313]

Meghan Markle's sister Samantha said Meghan has a history of causing chaos/problems/drama/hurt/damage/etc then runs away when the going gets tough for her so she won't have to face any responsibility and watches the fallout from afar

[@asdfjkl7430]

When I saw these photos published not long after the events took place, with her grinning cheerfully while everyone else is visibly disturbed, I thought, this woman is absolutely sick and diabolical. I've been watching the comments under related videos. She is losing "fans" by the minute.

Harry should stayed out of politics when he doesn’t know and understand anything. No wonder no one really want them around. Once they fall, they will realized who will really be their true friends.

[@clairelivefreeordie2551]

Yes...they're surrounding themselves with the Hollywood crowd & others that bow to them acting like they're the saviors coming to straighten America out. Are you kidding me! Stop preaching to the choir.

That call was really hilarious..haz shows he's really not bright..he didn't even ask where chunga changa was?

[@rocketmom60]

Over a year after this video, I don't think anyone misses them. In fact, I think everyone is relieved they are gone.

[@michellesheaff3779]

Reading this a couple years later it's obvious how much sympathy and good will there was towards Harry and Meghan. People wanted them to be happy in Britain and were sorry the new blood and diversity she was bringing. It was only after all their slander and unforgivable attacks

[@cathlynstalcup3795]

Not a well trained actress, the smile is because she likes to create drama and she had put brother against brother and had caused this rift that would grow into what it is today. Poor Harry can’t think for himself, Meghan does it for him. And she marvels in the chaos she has and is causing. It’s such a shame she has damaged the brother’s relationship.

[@yvettevernet4759]

What is wrong with Harry? Simple answer: Meghan!

[@tcfmarch17]

Three years later ...what a mess!

[@schmim1]

He is not to be political. He knew it. He’s almost 40. If they can’t work it out thenn he needs to grew up

[@annychest718]

Meghan is ridiculously possessive.. She didn't like Kate because of her closeness to Harry. She weren't having it

[@jam20230]

you are so very smart ! you can see right through Me-gain

[@katbar6066]

That's probably true because Harry refers in the Oprah interview to people being jealous of Meghan. I doubt that is the case but Meghan seemed to enjoy the comment.

[@jam20230]

@@katbar6066 haha. I have seen this many times in my friends' relationships. They get a girlfriend, the gf was a control freak, super possessive and jealous, and the guy would say that anyone who disapprove of that relationship is jealous of the crazy gf, those relationships never lasted. They crashed very badly.

[@lioness7582]

maybe,I think its because Kate could be the next queen.

[@briza2022]

The photos show that it was in reverse, William and Catherine didn't like Megan. In the end they are all actors , paid to act. That is why the competition.

[@annamack5823]

Body language "expert"?!!! Interesting to watch this a year later. "How much we'll all miss them"? Nope. "She's a very warm person...he's clearly very happy with her." 🤣

[@mothermary3200]

Megan is totally manipulative. This is so obvious. Hand constantly on Harry’s back. Come on little boy, mommy is here to look after you. Boo hoo. Miss them....never.

[@celestebivin1659]

Exactly. Come to think of it I don't think I've ever put my hand on my man's back like that. I don't think that's natural for women.

[@lindadouglass4692]

By the way, Trump is too busy to care what Harry and Meghan think.

[@michelegraham9044]

The body language expert. Really? I suppose she’s not interested in the background of what happened immediately before the church service. Madly in love? Mm is an actress with a father who has won Emmys for his lighting technique. Mm grew up on one of his sets. She had weeks to plot this week. The photos of her in the blue dress with her butt implant underwear on, she’s not madly in love. That hand on his back is a tool she uses to control Harry subconsciously. And did everyone miss that the umbrella had special lighting in it so the photos looked so good & dramatic.

[@ginac895]

It's gross!

[@karinmabry7092]

Omg, special lights!! I don't doubt it for a second!!

[@pocketnunu]

MM is NOT a "consummate" actress!

[@catlink8998]

Rather interesting looking back on this a year later and just a few weeks after their Oprah interview.

[@kbelle4138]

watching this 3years later after everything that had happened, really goes to show how much goodwill and faith the country in general had for harry and his wife. even the panelists were kindly in their comments! they really gave then the benefit of the doubt about how they wanted to step back, live a more private life. but harry squandered ALL that, and for what? money and fame for him and his wife. it is more than obvious what an unpleasant and horribly hypocritical couple they are and i for one am glad that they are being exposed by their own (dumb) actions and words.

[@cheechalker8430]

Harry’s comments on the prank phone call are frightening. This is a rich man from a powerful family who wants to silence any dissent

[@yvettevernet4759]

But will people take him seriously now?

Love the comment “I think Donald Trump could start a fight in an empty room.” As an American, I’m afraid Harry is proving to be as unintelligent as Trump. In a recent book it has be reported when Trump’s staff first worked with him they were amazed how stupid he was.

[@annieterminetschuppon7232]

Very interesting to watch it again after 2 years of chaotic "markled" hypocrisy

[@jillosler9353]

Harry's sulking and temper tantrums when he doesn't get his own way have been hidden from the public (not that it's our business!) and he has been excused a lot under the banner of 'he lost his mother at a young age' excuse. So did William but he doesn't throw his toys out of the pram! Red hair usually goes hand in glove with a temper but I think it is more than that. I disagree that the Royal Family were being 'condescending' at Commonwealth Day . . . choices have consequences.

[@NNSSS11]

Oh my! The body language analysis 😂

[@wendieking4184]

Here we are a year later, just after her Majesty Queen Elizabeth the second’s passing, and we still can only imagine how difficult life is dealing with her behind closed doors. Harry has ceased thinking for himself. He has become quite angry over the fact that he had to do that to maintain any sanity at all. I don’t see a way that the HM King Charles can ever them bring back into the fold. There will always be something that needs addressing immediately. Those kind of people, your life is better if you stay away from them.

[@Doreana48501]

Harry sounds very gullible. He'll learn tho Not to talk to Anyone on the phone.

[@lesleyallinson8738]

Meghan wanted harry and her to be treated like william and Kate, but william is the 2nd in line to the throne of uk. William and Kate walked with the into church to help soften whole thing, they rushed into marriage to fast. William tried to say to harry and it would have worked, just given Meghan time to learn about royal life

[@DH007-w2d]

You have watched the Crown, haven't you ? You must know your Queen is one of the best informed person in the UK if not the world. The Office must have found something about the Miss. The brothers must have been warned. I'm pretty sure she played the pregnancy card to get the ring. Last but not the least : Meggie has declared war to EIIR, and to the whole Commonwealth. Who is going to win ? I have a clue as us French call you Brits : nos meilleurs ennemis... Down to Meghan-Antoinette. Long live to the Queen.

No it wouldn't have worked because M had an agenda before she met Harry. Wake up everyone. She is so obvious.

[@quickbeam71]

This video didn’t age well. Can you imagine being heir to the throne after your father and having to step back from your place in the procession because your childish 35 year old brother (6th in line) and his brash American wife had a temper fit? Harry & Meghan decided to abandon their roles and they were non-working members of the family. There was no reason to give into Harry’s whining. I find it quite irritating to watch this knowing in hindsight how many times Meghan & Harry have thrown Wm & Kate, the BRF, the Commonwealth, and the British people en mass, under the bus. And why should Kate acknowledge Meghan after the way Meghan behaved? We now know about the conflicts that took place behind closed doors bc they have been recounted in several books. I’m not sorry Harry quit the royals at all but I bet he is!!

[@toffeelover2558]

She has played on his weakness regarding his mother...what about how his father treated his mother, yet he allowed him to walk Megan down the aisle....if she loves him.how can she treat and speak about his family so rudely in fron of the world....how can she hide their child from his family....sorry, she is an ungrateful person, she does not want the best for her husband, no compromise ..it’s all or nothing for Megan......she is jealous of Catherine.....period, it killed her having to walk behind her.....sorry, Harry is a fool.....his children will resent them as grey grow and realize what their parents did to them........they will be teased and bullied.....and so Harry has created the life he always said he did not want for his family......

[@celestebivin1659]

This body language expert needs to re-examine what she's seeing. If Megan wasn't a narcissist maybe what she's saying would be true, but it goes right out the window when you take into account her personality. She most certainly is manipulating that man/boy.

[@brendatenorio5721]

[@patsmith5947]

I don’t agree with that woman slobbering all over how much in love they are, Meghan is a huge phony. Why don’t you look at the picture with her in the red dress screaming at Harry while they are sitting in the car. She puts that hand on him because she is controlling him. She is directing him. Harry needs to quit taking his daddy’s money. Both of my parents had their fathers die during the Great Depression, they were dirt poor they had to live the life they were given. Harry isn’t the only person to lose a parent we all know it hurts but he needs to get over it, grow up and deal with it. I think he is doing this to make his dad feel guilty. Maybe Diane and Charles were really mismatched. They had a very big age difference, there is always two sides to every divorce. He wanted to marry Camilla but the Crown wouldn’t let him at first, Camilla got tired of waiting for him to ask her so she married someone else, then they decided they still cared for each other. It was all of the rules that made a mess of it and the Queen finally relaxed the rules but Harry is throwing tantrums. I think cut him off financially and make him grow up. He will come to his senses eventually but he may get knocked down a bit.
