Harry is wearing a much more sensible outfit than andrew who must have been sweating under that heavy cape.

They let Andrew out of the dungeon

Lapdog Harry raced back to Megain quicksmart.

After the carriages departed from the church, Harry was seen waiting for a car. He was later seen at Heathrow Airport. His son, Archie, turned 4 on Saturday and it was said he was headed back for his birthday.

It's Harry's son's birthday - he has to go and celebrate with his son

What's even sadder than being concerned about one man's fashion show is being concerned about that man's second son who doesn't want to be there.

that man's second son who doesn't want to be there.

So why was he there? Hes done everything to show he does what he wants now.

What's even sadder than being concerned about one man's fashion show is being concerned about that man's second son who doesn't want to be there.

Yes, yes, soo sad. So whats your interest in this?

Some British tabloids even consulted professional lip-readers to interpret what Harry was saying.

The Daily Mirror revealed that it appeared he said, “hello,” “morning” and “nice to see you” when he entered the church.

Harry has vowed to make media reform part of his mission in life. He has filed several lawsuits against the publishers of British tabloids for a phone-hacking scandal dating back more than a decade.

'Make media reform part of his life'. I'm sorry folks but I just can't hold any sympathy for Harry. Not because he married Meghan either. It's with the contents of that book he put out earlier this year. With his disgusting Afghan War 'bounty counting' and his confessional whom/how/under what circumstances he first zoomed with, amongst other 'tidbits' I don't know how he can even show his face around at a gig like this.

'Media reform'? He already embarrassed himself.

Stab everyone in the back on Oprah and in your book, get the cold shoulder.

Sounds about right.

But his formerly C-list actress wife just signed with a new talent agency. So there’s that….

No worries, Harry! You didn't miss much!

England's Royal Family establishing the broken moral and ethical standard and path forward for the next generation.

No wonder the Queen didn't relinquish power to her Prince Charles while she was alive. It must have made her shudder just thinking about the antics of Charles and Andrew.

Andrew, accused pedo, Harry, who boosted of murdering 49 people, and Charlie, who had a long term extramarital affair and accused of Diana’s misfortune, all together in a church with war criminal Blair, praying to how wonderful their god, (whose existence is disputed), is all about peace and love of all men. A little humorous.

Andrew also left for home after the Abbey and wasn't invited to Buckingham Palace.

Well, he choose to marry a Hollywood B-list celeb, I mean what did you think was going to happen? Harry was known for not always making smart decisions in life and this one was probably the worst.

-1 ( +5 / -6 )

Harry remains the 5th heir to the throne.

At least Harry must feel relieved to live free from the tedious rounds of the dysfunctional Windsor family and far from his former royal goldfish bowl existence.

The Ginger Whinger.

I'm surprised he went at all given all that went down between him and the family. He should have just stayed in California to fully celebrate his kid's birthday.

It is the sheer pettiness, the unnecessary need to punish humiliate and shun into isolation.

This public display to inflict retribution could have consequences, given the indication that the loss of Elizabeth II, Prince Philip has exposed/left a void, in public confidence, more importantly more than a whiff of fragility within the institution.

The one aspect that friends and neighbors dwelled, noted was the age and frailty of the King and Queen.

Brutality brought home by a one newspaper....

Looking like a couple of elderly polar bears on tour, the ermine-cloaked majesties were the centre of a day that was huge and hideous, exquisite and sacred, all at once.

What Father has to turn his back on his son, his grandchildren?

Harry aired his personal grievance in public, ill conceived, including the tragic loss of his Mother, and the subsequent role that his stepmother played in the breakdown of his Mothers and Fathers marriage.

Followed by dog bowl gate, his handbags at dawn, one-sided fisticuffs with this brother.

The Duke of York shenanigans are far more concerning.

I did marvel at the procession, pomp ceremony, the symbolism.

Why the politician's?

All the pompous posturing political has-beens, and current political cretinism that could have provided a slimmed down cerebrations, less is more in this case were missed.

British papers are saying that now most of the public doesn't care about the monarchy. Why should we?

The Ginger Whinger.

That nails Haz completely!

The system of monarchy seems out of date today. Who gives monarchs their right to rule or head a country? Is it heredity or some kind of heavenly power that does the trick?                                      

My sympathy goes to all royal families in the world.

Harry? Yawn. No big deal. Tabloid fluff. Harry Pothead. Wagatha Christie. Freddy Starr ate my hamster etc.

Now this...

Andrew, the Duke of York, relinquished royal duties after revelations about his friendship with convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. He was later stripped of his honorary military titles and patronages and settled a lawsuit with a woman who said she was forced to have sex with him when she was a teenager

is much darker and uglier.

Where did that money to settle the lawsuit come from again?

Royalty is still a thing? LOL. Harry showed his respect and left. Name calling of him and/or ridicule shows the weak minded 'God and KIng' lemmings of the commonwealth world as an obsolete ridiculous entity.

Pretty sure John Cleese was in charge of the colonization, I mean, coronation, a Monty Python spoof. Those English are really funny.

sunfunbunToday  12:15 pm JST.......Those English are really funny. Yet nothing about the Scots, the Welsh, or the Irish, who made up a great proportion of the British Army in colonial days. Then there were thousands of other from other countries, The Ghurka's, The Indian Army, Soldiers from Africa, NZ, Australia. These were the soldiers who made the British Empire, and fought all their wars. And their reward....nothing. But the English aristocracy who ruled the empire and held all the money just pretended the monarchy meant something.

Harry raced back to Montesicko to plot the next move with you-know-who. Theyve got nothing else to do.

"Odd Man Out"

He's odd alright. Not sure about the manhood, it seems his wife takes it away from him most of the time. On the other hand, being out without her must be a joy.

2 ( +2 / -0 )

Andrew was the odd man out. On this rare public appearance he was booed. Good.

1 ( +1 / -0 )

The disgruntled Duke of Sussex was assigned to sit two rows behind his brother.

THAT shows what the royals think about that self-embarrassing 'kiss + tell' book he wrote. I'm a bit surprised he even showed his face after that dirt about himself and the family he dished out. And Randy Andy? Well, he deserved all the booing he got.

And has anybody really noticed through all this pomp, bombast and phooey shenanigans just how butt-ugly that horse-drawn velocipede carrying the new King and Queen truly is? It's UGLY.
