Prince Harry 'infuriated' after King Charles refused to put Meghan Markle on payroll: book
2023-04-09
[NYPOST] Prince Harry
was "infuriated" after King Charles refused to put Princess Meghan Markle
...unlikable American former starlet married to the formerly likable Prince Harry. Chock full of lefty political opinions, Markle's most important characteristic is that she is Black, even though she doesn't look it. Her mother, y'see, is half black and her father is white, which would make her a quarter Black. Her half brother described her (to her husband, before their marriage) as a jaded, shallow, conceited woman that will make a joke of you and the royal family heritage. Once married, she was too good for the Royals and she and Harry decamped to Beverly Hills, kind of like the Clampetts did, thus making a joke of Harry and the royal family heritage...
on the royal family payroll, a new book claims.

The monarch reportedly broke the news to the "spare" prince in 2016, just moments after Harry revealed he planned on marrying the American actress, royal correspondent Robert Jobson wrote in his new book, "Our King."

"Are you sure, Harold?" Prince William asked his younger brother.

Then-Prince Charles delivered the second blow — rather than congratulating Harry, the future king said he couldn’t afford to pay Meghan as a member of the royal family because he was already bankrolling Camilla and William’s growing family, Jobson states in an excerpt obtained by the Daily Mail.

"This infuriated Harry," wrote Jobson, who also authored two books on Princess Diana alongside her former bodyguard Ken Wharfe.

The "bombshell" led to one of the initial falling-outs between father and son.

Charles stopped taking Harry’s calls after his son swore at him and repeatedly asked for funds.

#10  Hollyweird is the suck-up Olympics. They will have wealth hangers on as long as they keep getting in the news with their yammering.

#8  The Ginger Idiot and Dirtbag Duchess have spent all their history, palace gossip and faux outrage. Wills and the King will invite them to the coronation, freezer cheap seats, and give them nothing to use for the next book and interview.
Since they have no other talent except whining, they are dropping from B-list to yawn very quickly. Once that slide bottoms out, the "celebrity actress" will play the money card, and divorce Duke Harry for the last payday. Then she turns angry, black ex-royal and hopes for a seat on the View, the perfect ending in Obama's America.

#6  #4 I am led to believe she has been edged out by Emo Phillips on the residual scale.

#5  I guess if the choice were between Markle and Dylan Mulvaney... you might pay the bimbo off

#4  I can't imagine that her residual checks are that large.

Useful idiots are soon forgotten.

#3  Isn't she is already getting a checks from the Far Left, Social Media and Hollywood?

#2  Meghan and I finally have something in common.

#1  Maybe Harry can get a job to make up the difference. Something that he is good at, like donate organs.
