The Royal family is a bunch of godawful, privileged, entitled, racist, elitist, spoiled brats. There is no reason they should exist other than dismantling the monarchy, being time-consuming and expensive.
People liked (although some just tolerated) the queen because she did make an effort to make the monarchy more approachable. She built a lot of relationships and behaved well in the public eye. Her Christmas messages and COVID messages were very kind and compassionate. I am sure she had her temper tantrums and elitism. She was super shitty to Diana too. But in general, she knew how to behave.
Charles is a petulant child. He has always acted up and thrown public tempter tantrums as an adult. He behaves in an entitled and immature manner. In the marriage to Diana, Charles was very selfish and focused on his personal happiness. Had he been a mature adult the divorce could have been smoother. He had all the power to ensure Diana didn't go through shit but failed. I wouldn't be surprised if his sons inherited some of his behaviors.
As for the physical altercation, I take it with a grain of salt. Even as adults men tend to get into physical kerfuffles. It isn't healthy or right - but I've seen grown ass men push and shove each other over petty arguments. And in most sibling or best friend altyercations - it takes two to tango. Even if there is one clear aggressor, the other one intentionally pushes all the buttons they know will set the other person over the edge.
At first when I was very supportive of Harry and Megan. I thought he was doing everything possible to protect Megan. And I forgave the extraness as the result of someone who saw their mom go through hell. But now I am exhausted. Harry and Megan are cut from the same privileged and entitled cloth. They are just as removed from reality and just as selfish as the other royals.
The baby brain story from this book made me realize how callous Megan can be. Baby brain/pregnancy brain is real. Pregnant and new mothers are indeed hormonal, emotional, and scatterbrained. But every human who lives in civilization knows you never call it out or make women conscious of it. There is a very narrow circle of trust where you can joke about it or call it out. I can see a guy being clueless and poking the bear. But man, you have to be clueless as a woman if you choose to fvck around with a pregnant woman or new mom.
