Prince Harry exasperated as Prince William refuses to pick up his phone
2024-06-17
[GEO.TV] Prince Harry
is reportedly starting to grow exasperated day by day, and this is in light of how his attempts at reconnecting with the Royal Family have been taken.
Well, you know. Jimmy crack corn and all that.
Everything has been brought to light by an inside source close to Heat magazine.
"I can say no more!"
The insider in question broke down all their claims regarding Prince Harry’s desperation, and began by highlighting how painful his father’s cancer has been for him.
"I can say no more."
According to the source, "The lines of communication to Harry are limited, and are decreasing all the time."
"Really, I can't."
"If he emails or calls to request a specific update, royal staff will eventually give him a generic response — but the details are scant."
"We're sorry. The number you are calling is no longer listed."
"His father isn’t picking up the phone and Kate is in no position to update him," either the source noted.
"Can't talk now, I'm busy!"
Mainly because "her time and recovery are obviously being very carefully managed."
"It's whatsisname again. You want to talk to him?"
"Tell him sorry, I have to wash my hair."
"You told him that last time."
"Tell him I'm shaving my underarms and can't be disturbed."

"And the fact he sometimes reads about his family, rather than hear directly from them, hurts even more," too.
Being a spare is tough. Being a dumbass is even tougher. Being a poozy whipped dumbass married to a shrew Shakespeare couldn't tame is toughest.

#14  The problem is that they don’t want Harry to follow Prince Andrew’s path, so William and his dad need to manage this proactively.

#13  Here's they thing: When you've made bank telling the stories people have told you, they're going to stop telling you things, because you made bank.
Harry's an admirable guy in many ways. His problem is, he needs the royals, and they don't need him. (Anymore.)
Once William had a son, Harry became the 'extra' spare.

#11  America was founded on the idea there is no such thing as royalty. From People magazine to Bath House bowing to foreign rulers, some have forgotten that.

#9  The press that covers this stuff are malfunctioning malignant parasites. The ones that took Diana’s picture while she bled out are the worst.

#8  Maybe if Harry dumped the trollop, his calls might be returned.
If they went on a trip to Kansas, there’s a chance a house could fall on her.

#4  ...HRH is dealing with a seriously ill father and wife, while dealing with the responsibilities of his job and three children.

Pretty sure the last thing he wants to deal with right now are his whiny kid brother's demands.

#3  Lessee. He aired his family's private matters - or so he claimed on payday - to the media and now he's upset he "has to read about" fambly goings on in - the media.

On a smarter man, that would leave mark. On Harry however, none will be seen.
