那是……一个非常聪明和故意的误导，不是吗？In the days leading up to Oprah’s special with Meghan Markle and Prince Harry, most people, probably everyone, thought this was going to be Meghan going in hard on the British royals, that this would mostly be about Meghan, and that Harry would come in for a brief appearance. This is not what happened. Harry, in fact, was almost the entire second hour. This may be why the special went from 90 minutes to two hours and they still have so much content that they’ve been rolling it out onCBS This Morning.因为哈利进来了，就像一个sl。

我现在所拥有的只是体育类比来描述它实际上是如何下降的 - 那是梅根基本上装载了基地，而哈利则加强了盘子并击中了本垒打。梅根（Meghan）和巷子（Alley-oop）和哈利（Harry）一起扣篮在他的家人身上。我认为这就是为什么英国王室和支持他们的人（包括英国媒体）如此恐慌的原因。他们认为自己会与梅根争夺，无论如何他们都习惯向梅根开火，因此他们准备以通常的方式抹黑她的子弹。令人惊讶的是，梅根（Meghan）并不是近距离。哈利越来越近。只有梅根（Meghan）与奥普拉（Oprah）在一起的时刻是从局外人的角度来奠定基础，为皇家环境设置桌子 - 一个进入家庭而受到支持的人。一旦出现了图像，哈利便开始填补所有颜色，并以自己的内部人士，内部人士的身份与梅根（Meghan）的帐户相辅相成。这是一个内部人士关于皇家系统中严重缺陷的故事。而且，最关键的是，内部人士对皇家体系中最大的缺陷的看法 - 尤其是一个人：他的父亲查尔斯王子。

就像，在特别节目中有令人jaw目结舌的时刻，但是当我跳下床的那一刻是哈利说他父亲停止接听电话的时候。Oooof。请记住，期望是哈利和梅根会来女王。在广播之前，所有的仇恨者都喜欢，您敢于对她这样做，她致力于这个角色。但是在采访中，哈利和梅根并没有瞄准女王。实际上，他们热情地谈论了女王。奥普拉今天还澄清说，不是女王或菲利普亲王质疑阿奇的非白人：

So if it’s not them…who was it? Someone very senior. And then we’re told, by Harry, that his father at some point stopped taking his calls. And cut him off financially. So it wasn’t the Queen who came off looking bad in this interview, it was the future king of England. And it’s not Meghan implying this, it’s HARRY. It’s his own flesh and blood. This is f-cking Shakespearean. Aren’t these the dots we’re supposed to be connecting?

哈利是微妙的,但不是我ndirectly, implying that Charles is in control of the monarchy more than has been made public. Obviously we know that the Queen has already been, gradually, handing sh-t off to her heir. But they always go out of their way to insist that Her Majesty is still the boss, the matriarch of the family, the buck stops with her. And yet… here’s Harry basically telling us that she is surrounded by advisors, that she may not, in fact, be making all the decisions. Where the future of the monarchy is concerned, this is the clip that could be most telling that came out of this interview – and Meghan has nothing to do with it:

This is what I was looking for with Oprah and that she delivered – that follow-up: “Doesn’t the Queen get to do what the Queen gets to do?”

Which opened the door for Harry to be like, nope, she’s surrounded by people who are counseling her: viper courtiers, personal dressers perhaps, and … her oldest son, the Prince of Wales? Harry’s not spelling it out. But somehow plans for him to meet with the Queen were changed. After he had written to his dad who stopped taking his calls. And suddenly the Queen couldn’t see him for that whole week. Who else could have authorised it?

Harry didn’t just reveal then that Charles is in command, he has revealed the innermost workings of the British royal institution, exposing secrets about how the monarchy actually functions to the world. And for an organisation as secretive as the Firm – and he actually calls it the Firm! – that would be terrifying. He’s telling on his family using his family’s language.

Another example is when he refers to the “invisible contract” between the British royal family and the UK tabloids. I’ve been writing about this for years now, that one of Harry and Meghan’s biggest frustrations is that their family members continue to work with publications that have been racist and have continued to harass them, Meghan in particular. That not only have they not supported Meghan enough, they are actually supporting those outlets – with information, leaks, and even allowing them to have parties at royal venues.

我不能强调哈利在相机上透露这一点的巨大巨大意义。这是一些神圣的皇家Sh-T，他们从来没有谈论过他们如何欢呼媒体。是verboten。然而，这是他与奥普拉（Oprah）在一起，知道红灯正在亮着，并在对话中舒适和对话告诉世界，是的，我的家人，英国皇室成员，就像名人一样，他们在junkets期间与媒体有零钱的关系lol比赛视频2019和新闻之旅。您以为皇室成员高于SH-T？请。我们不仅高于它，我们也害怕他们。

Yes, afraid. With our palaces and our titles, and all our money, and the finest dinnerware in the world, and all our f-cking manners and protocol, we the royal family are afraid of the Daily f-cking Mail. My God, how embarrassing. That’s how Oprah reacted too. She’s sitting there all like…seriously? WTF? There’s a thousand years of history here and 800 crowns and scepters, and they tremble in fear of the tabloids?

For an institution that’s all about strength and stability, that prides itself on its stoicism, that protects its reputation at all costs, the fact that one of their own, a (formerly) high-ranking member of the institution is saying that they wither and cow in face of the tabloids? He just told us how weak they are. And don’t think for a second that they aren’t super concerned with that kind of information. Because it speaks to integrity – their moral integrity, or lack thereof, to be sure, but also, like their foundational integrity.

How is the British monarchy supposed to uphold its foundational value when they can’t even stand up to a newspaper that routinely has on its front page stories about people having drunken rowdy sex on Ryanair?

And how are people supposed to have any confidence in an institution that is unofficially, as Harry may be implying, being led by a man who is still so insecure? To go back to Charles, and how he, really, is the one who came off the worst out of this interview, you’ll note that it was Harry who dropped Australia – and it was Oprah who picked it up. Harry talked about how well Meghan did on the Sussexes’ tour of Australia, New Zealand, Fiji, and Tonga. Right away, Oprah perked up. And brought up皇冠。(The Crowncontinues to f-ck with the British royals, LOL.) You’ll recall, there was an entire episode dedicated to Prince Charles and Diana’s trip to Australia. On the show, it was depicted that they had a rough start, then became close, and were quite happy for a while – and in that happiness, Diana dazzled not just Australians but the entire planet. She was a megastar. She was the main star. And Charles, more and more, became irritated by her popularity – so much so that their relationship soon soured because of his jealousy, or so it was suggested on the show.

So Harry’s talking about how great Meghan was in Australia, Oprah’s like…oh, just like onThe Crownand how great your mother was and…

And…

哈利基本上再次确认这是“历史重演”。某些人看到了梅根（Meghan）被收到的奇妙之处，她得到了多少新闻界以及辉煌的新闻，以及30年前发生的同样嫉妒也被重新激活。宫殿中的某人受到梅根（Meghan）的威胁，并扩展了哈利（Harry）的受欢迎程度。和The Crownfresh in our minds, and Charles famously insecure about his own appeal, as we saw just recently a few years ago as his sons came into their own, we find the narrative once again coming back around to Charles and his ego. Which brings his leadership into question. Given that he is the king-to-be, the future head of the British royal family, upon whose head the crown will be placed…

What Harry has just done in this interview is give all kinds of ammunition to those who may have doubts about Charles’s fitness as the sovereign. If we’re questioning the fitness of a monarchy, the entire f-cking monarchy is in jeopardy.

You know, for years, there’s been allllll kinds of speculation about whether or not the British royals should just skip over Charles and go direct to William. Google it, “Charles should step aside for William”. Could Harry’s comments in this interview be seen as an endorsement of this proposal?

THAT is going to be one of the most pressing concerns that the British royals are facing – that Prince Harry may be contributing to those calls for a succession switch. Or maybe an overhaul of the whole damn thing. And why? If you go back and watch the interview with Oprah, there’s a real change in tone when Harry talks about his father compared to how he talks about others, even his brother. The hurt is palpable whenever Charles comes up. The hurt is also undeniable when Oprah tries to get him to say who it was that was asking about Archie’s skin tone and he refuses to talk about it but you can see the disgust, can’t you? The memory of that conversation DISGUSTS him. Of course it does. Racism is disgusting, but that person was referring TO HIS SON. And if that person is indeed his father, well, wouldn’t he then, based on that example, and everything else that’s disappointed Harry, be enough for him to change his opinion about who should head the family?

His mother apparently felt the same way.

因此，回到一开始，这是否只是梅根（Meghan）讲话的时候……

如果你真的打破monarc的打击hy would consider the most detrimental, the ones that really are shaking the beams today, in public they’ll try to tell you that it’s Meghan, but really, Harry’s the one that brought the fire. And you get the sense… he WANTED to. He’s been waiting for it. Maybe for his whole life. There was nothing reluctant about Harry’s disclosures. He agreed to a cameo and turned it into a leading role. Think about what he’s gone through, his childhood, everything that he’s observed, and then when he finally falls in love and starts his family, in his mind the ultimate betrayal comes from within his own home? Someone who’s new to the house isn’t going to light the match. It’s the ones who’ve been living in it and are tired of it who want to burn it all down. That’s the Harry who was talking to Oprah.
