So far, I don’t think he’s necessarily trashed Camilla, but he definitely doesn’t seem to think too highly of her. Kate has been spoken of lovingly. I think it’s really the preparation for Harry and Meghan’s wedding where Kate doesn’t come off great. Like Meghan was going through other shit and Kate was concerned about the dress not fitting Charlotte. But I mostly believe it happened that way. 🤷♀️

I obviously haven't gotten to the Meghan chapters at but WTF, Harry (regarding the nitrous oxide). Although it still doesn't compare with Charles dropping Diana and newborn Harry off at KP so he could go play polo and of course, Camilla was there.

I have been in a few FB group discussions about this book, and it seems the people who don’t sympathize with Harry and Meghan either didn’t read it, or just believe everything the media has said about them regardless of reading it.
Soooooo many people are not reading it and basing their review off of a few out of context snippets. The biggest one I have seen circulating is that Harry LIED about getting an X Box years before it came out… but what they don’t include is that he says himself that that’s what was told to him and his memory is faulty!! It’s like they are all reading the same negative blog posts nitpicking this book or something because I keep seeing the same arguments come up.
+1 to the poster who said they don’t understand the Royal apologists. I just don’t get defending them at this point.

Yep She was a week late so she went in and they told her it was time to induce. They had laughing gas in her room and he was using it. When it came time for her to need it the nurse had to go get more. They all laughed about it. I did not laugh Major yikes. How would that not be a misuse of prescription drugs or something? Would people have laughed it off if he used a narcotic prescribed to his wife? My sister had her kids in the UK (military) and got to use nitrous oxide and highly recommended it

They let other people that aren't the patient use the laughing gas in the room?? Or is this something he got away with because of who he is??

The teacher Harold called out definitely seemed like an ass, but I was surprised he named him He's put Diana on a pedestal, Cam is self serving trash, and I do think he likes Kate I wonder how much crossover there is online between the lovers of Cam&Chuck and W&K with Q nuts/conspiracy believers Oh I am absolutely seeing an overlap of Trumpers that are staunchly team Will and Kate/Charles and Camilla and dislike Harry and Meghan, so it wouldn’t be a stretch to overlap with Q believers. They are all the people that say “they hate Meghan because she is a liar and I can’t put my finger on why.” Without any evidence of her lying. I can put my finger on it. It’s racism.

So often I see the question of why Meghan etc. I think she was the first one to call him on his shit. Maybe I’m wrong and chelsy and Cressida did but it didn’t seem that way. Stiff upper lip and all that The reason H probably loves Meghan is one of the same reasons The Firm hate her. Too emotional (for the BRF), a little more relatable to people. Diana seemed to have those qualities too Plus she is outspoken about the “taboo” (that shouldn’t be taboo) topics like Me Too.

Also and possibly UO, I don't believe Charlotte cried about her dress not fitting properly. She was 3 and she could have been crying for any number of reasons, but I find it highly sketch that she understood her dress was too big or that even if she did, she would cry about it.

Not saying Chelsy or Cressida weren’t but he mentions her reading books and being involved with things and traveling etc.

I didn’t read the laughing gas thing as seriously as some did… I was not a good labor person although my family would beg to differ. Once I got my epidural it only worked on one side and I made them come fix it. After laboring to 6.5 cm at home I would not have been happy but I’m aware that was a me thing He talks about it in context of them having fun during the delivery and listening to music and keeping it light for Meg

I was listening this morning and got so irritated at so many of them. Other than the Sussexes. Charles saying he couldn’t afford for Meghan to stop working?

I mean, I personally know plenty of people who have taken bumps of nitrous when it wasn’t strictly for them. It’s not like he took her fentanyl. They needed to get more for her though? That made me read it as more than a bump or two

It is also highly addictive, but taking a hit or 2 vs using most or all of the can would be different IMO. Saying it was empty when she needed it was at best a poor joke and at worst it's bullshit Maybe it's just a me thing, but MH getting high while I'm in labor doesn't seem like a good joke

I don’t judge at all I was just surprised. But he definitely needs it if it helps keep him calm

Soooooo many people are not reading it and basing their review off of a few out of context snippets. And sorry, if you [general you] didn't read it and are basing opinions off of snippets? I don't take you seriously. And if you're using snippets to prop up the royals especially poor Charles and Will [eyeroll], who stood by and watched while their family members were attacked and threatened, including a newborn baby, but yet spoke out for themselves or those whom they GAF about (Charles did a book and a documentary after Tampon-gate broke and hired a spin doctor to rehab Camilla's image FFS, Will spoke up in defense of Kate being harassed by paps] I will likely think you're someone I'd rather not keep company with. Or worse, reading it, and deciding that Harry's entire book is full of lies (and this is not to say I believe Harry on everything, but I'd believe him over them any day ending in "y") as if Charles and Will and the others are some saints.

It's clear Harry adores Meghan and that's my favorite part of them. So to be clear I don't think he did or told that story to be harmful. I agree with angelashly though I would not be amused. Like find another way to lighten the mood sir. Don't fuck with my meds 🤣 I was also kind surprised the medical staff would be ok with it but I've never had it so idk

A quick Google about the Duchy of Cornall income revealed it was $24 mil in 2021 and Chuck spent about half on himself and $5 mil ob W&K. But he also got Sovereign Grant $$. This article didn't specify how much money he got from the grant, but it for sure makes it look petty with regard to Meghan continuing acting Also, if he wanted her to continue acting, why was becoming financially independent suddenly a problem? 🙄 www.cornwalllive.com/news/cornwall-news/how-duke-cornwall-spends-23m-7590191

Dd was sunny side up and while I was pushing my mil said it’s time to share her and I’m telling you the look I gave…..

There are quite a few passages of the book that people are taking way more seriously or critical than I did. I did find it a little "Huh" when he revealed that they had to get MORE gas for Meghan, lol. But in all, I felt the whole penis stuff to be his attempt at humor and maybe it just falling flat because penis humor is not really a universal thing. I mean, it is a memoir. I don't get why people keep shouting about "oversharing". That is literally what a memoir is for. Speaking in general here, not at any particular person in this thread/on this board.
And I have zero sympathy for Will/Kate/Charles/Camilla and how they come off in the book. Zero.
