Just to add to this, the agreement included that NGN would release a public apology/acknowledgment of wrongdoing. Because they didn't do that, Harry is suing. They are saying his statue of limitations is up, and he is arguing it isn't since he is only suing since they didn't honor the previous settlement. However, there are also other wrinkles - had the parties disclosed there was a settlement without giving details, that would be one thing, but with Charles and QE2's previous financial shadiness, it looks shady that Will took money without it being on the record. Also, 2020 is when he got the payment but also when he allowed Jason Knauf to break his NDA to give statements in Meghan's lawsuit (even though the statement didn't affect the case, but rather was going on the record with negativity about Meghan - giving the tabloids what they wanted). According to Harry's filing, one reason why there was the settlement instead of the lawsuit was that Charles wanted to keep the press on friendly terms. All roads lead to Camilla. I think many do but I'd wager there are some skeletons in Wills' closet as well. June cannot come soon enough.

Harry stated that Charles was trying to avoid something similar to Tampongate going on record and the settlement was being negotiated when the initial Rose stories where being pulled and changed. Honestly, Will's secret payoff reads more like a bribe than a settlement with the full context of what was happening at the time. It comes across like, you settle and we will give you some money and fix your Rose problem. It really makes me wonder what tangible dirt they have. Imagine Will's pillow talk?!!!

Oh gods if Will had a tampon-like moment I don't want to know that. Please keep that locked up in the court records. My brain can only handle one of those. We've discussed it here, or maybe it was the Royals thread. But spoiler tagged in case you want to skip it anyway lol. Pretty sure it's the pegging thing that came out along with the (alleged) affair with Rose, right? Eta: oh wait, this is the Royals thread. I meant the blinds. I'm lost. Ha.

Essentially, it was the main reason for the affair because she was willing to and Kate wasn’t.

I’m not saying we are scandalized by Will’s choices. But I personally DNW to hear/see/read anyone else’s phone sex/dirty talk or what have you. It all makes me cringe. I mean sure Chuck and Will don’t want that being out in public but I imagine Kate REALLY getting in there and doing everything to keep it quiet. For herself and for her kids (when they’re old enough to google etc)
Also I do think Harry wishes he was not on the outs with BRF but man he was not wrong that they’re willing to protect certain members at the total expense of some others. I can see how he and M went from unhappy/angry about having her letters published and feeling emotionally vulnerable to feeling physically vulnerable so quickly. I think that was H’s line in the sand.

Yeah, do not want any transcripts or leaked audio of any of them. Nor would I want my own leaked audio. I don’t even like Will’s voicemails calling Kate “baby”. I don’t need to picture any of it or have more details than we already do. That feels icky to me because it’s a violation, not because I care what sex acts people are into.
I will admit to being annoyed at Will calling Diana paranoid about thinking her phone lines were tapped when he already knew it was a fact. It’s not a good look that he talked bad about her years after her death when he knew this stuff. He was an adult, he knew better.

Love those outfits! I kinda wish the daughters had switched handbags, the green would pop against the white with the blue underneath.
Loooove the green on Maxima. All of the colors are so bright and pretty

It’s not a good look that he talked bad about her years after her death when he knew this stuff. He was an adult, he knew better. I find a lot of this to be suspect- he said the Panorama interview shouldn't be aired anymore because of this stuff, when by most accounts other than the palace's, while Diana's choice of interviewer was because of the manipulation, she was determined to do an interview and get her side "out there." It feels more like Will is feeding into the narrative the palace wants to portray to protect the throne/Charles. Which, I get that the throne will be William's one day, but to make a choice to speak out to silence your dead mom seems like a stand that you don't have to choose to take.

Allegedly 1 million of the Will settlement went to Harry’s invictus games start up.
Twitter of course is all a buzz about how great of a brother Will is and how it means Harry knew about the settlement and is ungrateful.

About that settlement money...I've been down a rabbit hole this morning and from what I'm reading, Will's seemingly generous donation of the settlement money is not at all what is being claimed.
If one looks at the 2020 Invictus donations documents, you'll see there was a donation from The Royal Foundation. This foundation was originally called the Foundation of Prince William and Prince Harry. It was was set up in 2009 when they were still close (or appeared so). Kate and Meghan were added to the title of the charity after their respective marriages to the princes. Fast forward to 2019 when Harry and Meghan announced they were quitting the charity to set up their own foundation (Sussex Royal). QEII banned them from using royal after they confirmed they were leaving the UK and stepping down from being senior royals.
So the Royal Foundation was originally a joint foundation for both brothers and this donation occurred while the split was still being worked through. My spit-balling is that this donation was going to be given by the Royal Foundation to Invictus anyway, as it was money raised specifically for that cause and originally filtered through the foundation. So I don't see this as Will being the generous big brother, donating to Harry, even after everything Harry has done narrative that's being spun. It's all part and parcel of continuing to divvy up the funds from when the foundation was helmed by both brothers. Will has always been envious of it being Harry's idea to start Invictus, tried to argue against it, but after it had tremendous success, then tried to glob onto it as a joint venture, when it's been all Harry from the beginning.

Step 1"Harry shouldn't have talked about it in his court filing!" Step 2"Well, even though it's true, it wasn't that large of a sum." Step 3"It was a million dollars, but it all went to charity." Step 4"It's possible it even went to the Invictus games!"

I wonder if she's allowed to wear leggings, probably not. We should introduce her to some $$$ joggers. She can wear those jeans became they have pockets.

Eeesh - but not surprising. He thought nothing of using his own kids to further himself, why would he care about other kids?

Gross to having children chant for him. That’s worse PR to me than having protesters chanting against him.
