,A number of the members of the royal family are reluctant to talk to H and M for fear of their conversations being written in the next book. Nobody trusts them.

You’d think that with Andrew Mountbatten on ye olde family tree, Harry would at least have moved up to #2 most hated royal.
I’m glad they pulled off a family visit.
Harry has moved up - he’s 3rd from the bottom. Andrew is the cellar dweller and Meghan is 2nd from the bottom

Ok, kinda unfair that Fergie was excluded from the list because she’d definitely take the #2 spot, but I understand why she’s technically not eligible 
I sincerely hope Charles does make attempts to connect with the grandchildren and that he keeps the public out of it, as much as we want to know.
I feel sorry for Harry’s kids as they don’t, as far as we know, have relationships with aunts and uncles and especially cousins. My own kids are very close to their cousins and even have a ‘cousins’ chat with the group of 9, ranging from 20 to 41 years old.
True. But it’s a parlor game anyway, particularly when including one fairly recently deceased member of the BRF and one former member of the BRF who has been dead for 29 years.

My own father was a jerk, especially to his children, but he did better with the grandchildren although we, the parents, were able to control the interactions and he knew we could pull access at any time so he was on his best behavior.
People who have written about Charles write he was close to Harry and William even after the divorce.
True. If we could pull names as we pleased I’d definitely have the Queen Mother or Princess Margaret up at the top.
Poor Prince Edward being toward the bottom! His wife and daughter are popular, why hasn’t that rubbed off on him?
Probably because he’s so scandal-free relative to other family members!
I’m convinced Princess Anne’s high ranking is 95% thanks to her depiction on The Crown - the actress really slayed in that role.
I wonder if they’ll bring the show back to do an Andrew/Epstein/Harry/Meghan season?

Princess Anne has enjoyed high popularity ratings well before the Crown, which is kinda ironic, since she truly doesn’t give a ….
No. Definitely not. Peter Morgan has previously said that he has zero interest in continuing the story into the modern era. Instead he is working on a prequel covering 1901-1947, i.e. from the death of Victoria to the marriage of Elizabeth and Philip.
Which is not to say that other people won’t do stories about Harry and Meghan and Andrew. And there have already been some - just not very good.

If that means lots of scenes of the Queen Mother drinking G&T’s in the morning, then sign me up!

With a slice of fresh lemon placed into the glass first, then ice cubes which need to be large enough to pin the lemon slice to the bottom of the glass so it wouldn’t float around.

Vaya con Dios.
I wonder if Charles is much sicker than they are telling everyone. This seems like a dramatic move
