I loath Trump, but I’m not a royal whose views could cause trouble in diplomatic relations with foreign countries. 2) During a visit to the Middle East she left a good portion of her hair exposed when visiting one of the countries leaders.

@@nightangel972000 And you're getting all of this "insider information" from where I presume? And all this hostility started due to the "alleged" points you just mentioned? Prince Archie being called a "monkey" and the racist hate-filled mail Their Royal Highness's received daily and on a regular basis from the good people of the United Kingdom is somehow Meghan's fault? The Royals are human like anyone else. They have political views they just don't make known to the public and are discouraged from doing so. Its evident a campaign was set in place to remove Prince Harry and his black wife from the confines of the RF the moment the two married. You think this is an accident with the press/media/tabloid - palace leaks and the Establishment not supporting neither the Duke or Duchess when rumor, gossip, and innuendos were being spread? The couple not once being defended in the press and media by the Palace or Clarence House. Hell, many in this same press called-out the double standard of how the Prince Harry and Meghan were being treated vs. how the Palace and Clarence House were quick to act to squash lies said about the then Prince Charles or Camilla, or the then Duke & Duchess of Cambridge. Yet, Harry and Meghan were not defended in the same way. The former King Edward VIII was not allowed to marry and stay on the throne - and was exiled from the country of his birth for the rest of his life. Only being allowed to return on his death. His wife being denied the right to be an HRH, which is literally illegal under British common law. Even Queen Victoria famously said..... "even a common girl becomes a princess when she marries a prince." So, please don't preach about how upstanding the RF are. There was a time when Lady Elizabeth Bowes-Lyon (Queen Mother), Lady Diana Spencer, and Catherine "Kate" Middleton could only ever been a mistress to a British prince due to their low rank and not considered acceptable as wives. The RF have done a lot of dirt in their time. Look at how they treated the late Diana, Princess of Wales. The mother of the the future sovereign being stripped of the prefix HRH.

Some people still referred to him as King Edward. Although not publicly. As in the thinking, “his father died naming him as king… it’s his birthright”. Wrong as that is. He did not want to be King (but he was accustomed to a certain standard of living and wanted that lifestyle to continue) … and Wallis did not want to marry him. Imagine giving up everything, then realizing that you now have no purpose so you try to come back for some kind of small role. Nope. Exile. Fortunately for the monarchy, he and Wallis didn’t have children; if they had, the saga would have never ended. Just goes to show that everyone has a cross to bear.

He was known for being more down to earth with the people and even provoked a scandal with the Tories for supporting better working conditions for mining workers in a speech during the 1920s. I believe if not for his disastrous love life and the influence of Simpson (who was personal friend of von Ribbentrop and influenced Edward towards a more Pro-Nazi stance), he would've eventually made for a good King.

After The Duke passed away in 1972, there were back channel communications between Queen Elizabeth TQM and The Duchess of Windsor. The Queen Mother at one point was going on an official visit to France on behalf of The Crown and intended to pay an unofficial visit to The Duchess of Windsor at The Duchess' home in Paris. But, by that time, The Duchess was entering into senility and Queen Elizabeth TQM was advised that the meeting might be "unpleasant". So, instead, Queen Elizabeth TQM sent a large bouquet of red and white roses to Her Grace, The Duchess of Windsor, with a simple note, "In Friendship".

He managed to lead his country successfully, yet this ultimate stress caused him smoking heavily and causing his death at the age of only 56.

Not King Edward VIII anymore in 1952 but the Duke of Windsor. Also, the Queen knew everything about his connivance with the Nazis as Anthony Blunt, the Queen's Art Consultant and later the Keeper of The Queen's Pictures, assisted just after Germany surrended in May 1945, in retrieving letters from the Duke of Windsor to Phillip, Duke of Hesse which showed his loyalty was not to the British people. From Wikipedia: Miranda Carter mentions that other versions of the story, which claim that the trip was to retrieve letters from the Duke of Windsor to Philipp, Landgrave of Hesse, the owner of Friedrichshof, in which the Duke knowingly revealed Allied secrets to Hitler, have some credibility, given the Duke's known Nazi sympathies.[34] Variants of this version have been published by several authors.[12][35][36] Carter allows that, while George VI may have also asked Blunt and Morshead to be on the alert for any documents relating to the Duke of Windsor, "it seems unlikely that they found any."[37]

@@laerwen I'm not saying a person shouldn't back away to be with family to escape abuse. But, based on Jesus's teaching I object to any idea that forgiveness is not the right approach. Those who do not forgive will not be forgiven; it's crucial to always forgive. It's an ethical must, but again not saying someone shouldn't escape to be with family.

He gave up being King for love, One that lasted faithfully until death. Many would call that Romantic

Edward gave up the throne to marry a divorcee and Charles is King married to a divorcee. Seems a bit hypocritical to me!!

He gave up being King for love, and then conspired with Nazi Germany by sending them secret British information and even supported the continued bombing of the UK, aka the wholesale murder of his fellow citizens and former subject, and even the deaths of his brother and his nieces as he expected to be crowned King by Hitler after the bombings.

She cheated on him several times. It wasn't love, it was co-dependence.

Edward - Betrays his country, advises the Nazis to keep bombing it. Queen Mother - "hOw DaRe He MaRry A dIvOrcEd AmErIcAn?!" What a sympathetic family, proud to have them represent us.

The Duke of Windsor did not want to be King. Yes he was a Nazi sympathizer but remember he is of German heritage. Another point is that we don’t really know if this conversation even took place. The show is loosely based on what happened.

Ma tutta la famiglia reale era d origine tedesca, la regina Vittoria, suo marito Alberto, il principe Filippo quasi tutti i reali inglesi sono ed erano patentati con il Kaiser persino l ultimo zar Nicola sposo una tedesca ,la regina Vittoria era sopranominata la nonna di Europa. Inoltre fu Giorgio il padre della regina Elisabetta ha cambiare il cognome di famiglia in Windsor perché suonava meglio che quello di mountbatten, poi che la regina madre e il marito non fecero combutta con i nazisti questa è una altra storia.

So? What does having German heritage have to do with Edward not wanting to be King or being a Nazi sympathizer? Is having German heritage a requirement to be either? That's just stupid. Tsar Nicholas II, King George V and Kaiser Wilhelm II were 1st cousins yet they still went to war with each other in WWI. Do you think their German heritage meant anything then?

Tommy Lascelles, who worked for him for 9 years in total, reported the conversation about Hitler. It's true. And Edward was promised the throne in return for his collusion. His actions costs untold allied lives.

He did want to be king. He planned for the Nazis to restore him to the throne if they conquered England.

A quite hilariously dysfunctional family, still is.
