In case you’re curious about this site’s plans for tomorrow morning’s coronation, just know that the Chubbly starts at 5 am EST. So… no, we won’t cover it live, but we’ll have a Chubbly Open Post going up in the morning, followed by some coverage later on Saturday and probably into Sunday. Considering the weather is supposed to be pretty awful in London tomorrow, I imagine the arrival photos at Westminster Abbey will be pretty grim. Speaking of grim, the Mail is obsessively detailing Prince Harry’s travels into the UK and the private plane they believe he used. This level of detail could have been better spent on Rose Hanbury or the king’s hidden fortune.
Prince Harry may have already landed in the UK for his 24-hour visit for King Charles III’s Coronation – leaving his wife and two children at home. This morning a private jet from Van Nuys airport in California landed at Farnborough, the airport closest to Windsor Castle. Van Nuys is just an hour from Harry and Meghan’s Montecito mansion, but it is not yet known if he was on board.
It the duke has used a fuel-guzzling private jet instead of a commercial flight, it will raise yet more questions about Harry’s campaigning on climate change, an issue which he said at the UN last year had left him feeling ‘battered and helpless’.
Tonight Harry is expected to spend a final night at Frogmore Cottage after his father decided to evict him and his American wife just days after the release of his memoir Spare.
The Duke of Sussex will see his father King Charles III crowned at Westminster Abbey. But there is speculation he will have no formal role in the service and may even be sat several rows back from his brother William and other working royals.
Royal commentators have considered whether he will even be allowed to fit within the processions to the Abbey. They have also suggested that he could face ‘uniform humiliation’ as he may not be allowed to wear his military garb. It is understood the duke will only be in the UK for around 24 hours so he can get home for his son Archie’s fourth birthday, which is the same day as the Coronation.
The aircraft that landed at Farnborough is a 2019 Gulfstream G550 fixed-wing two-engine business jet with 20 seats on board. A new Gulfstream G550 costs $62million, while preowned models retail from $14million. It is owned by NantWorks, a California-based parent company of firms in the biotech, healthcare AI and mobility industries. The founder of NantWorks is Patrick Soon-Shiong, a surgeon and pharma billionaire who owns shares in the LA Lakers with his wife. He is believed to be close to the Bidens. NantWorks has worked with Global Citizen, with Harry and Meghan attending one of their Vax Live events to promote Covid-19 vaccine efficacy worldwide. Dr Soon-Shiong has also supported Global Citizen, opening a plant and health facility that aims to produce by 2025.
The Mail’s editors are not alright. They can’t even decide what they’re mad about. Harry is using a private jet! Harry won’t be allowed to wear his uniform! Harry is only staying for 24 hours even though we’ve made it perfectly clear that we want him to stay longer so we can treat him like sh-t! Harry has rich friends! Harry is being evicted! Jesus H. I hope Harry is surrounded by good energy and he makes it through this 24-hour mess.

Nothing said about bills copter flights and bill and dad’s private jets. I hope harry gets a long break having to go.back to UK again
So in conclusion Harry has billionaire friends who can lend him a private jet. Got it.
Nothing wrong in having friends in good places. I am happy he had a safe and secure way to this crowning of the hat.
Exactly Dhianna! With the level of unhinged criminal malice coming from the BM (and other institutions), I don’t think it would be a good idea for him to travel commercial.
Yes Elizabeth Regina And an American wife. An American (translation a mixed race woman). He and his mixed race wife have rich friends. Where is the fainting couch
Exactly, thank you @ Elizabeth Regina.
Here’s the thing, we all know that flying private is terrible for the environment, but Harry is one of a handful of people on this earth who has a legitimate reason to do so *once in a awhile*. In terms of security, privacy, and real verified need to get the F outta dodge as soon as possible, he’s completely justified. So the fun gossip here is whether this plane belongs to Serena Williams, Tyler Perry, or Elton John. Who stepped up and took care of their good friend?
@zazzoo – spot on and well said.
Of course! Enviromently friendly he is! 😉
Katy Perry is likely flying in via private jet too. It’s how she usually travels.
It’s expected a lot of people will be arriving by a private jet.
https://www.timeout.com/uk/news/everything-you-need-to-know-about-the-upcoming-heathrow-airport-strikes-032823
But Katy Perry is justified in using a private jet! She was the one who saved the struggle concert from falling flat on its face into a puddle.
I wonder if he came with Katy?
I doubt he came with Katy, she likely travels with a huge entourage of security, makeup, hair, fart-catchers and wardrobe people…enough to fill a 727.
And I’m sure she had to get there earlier in the week for rehearsals.
I cannot wait for this to be over. Harry will not have to come back for anything official, unless it’s a funeral, for the foreseeable future. Now that Phillip’s funeral, the Jubbly, Liz’s funeral, and now the Chubbly will be finished, they’ve got nothing left to obsess over.
Oh wouldn’t that be lovely, but the derangers and RRs will continue to obsess over everything touched by Sussex Family. Next up, Invictus Games.
I just mean they are out of engagements in the UK involving the RF that they can drag out for months on end with ‘will they? won’t they?’ stories. Any obsessing from here on out for a good while will be them watching H&M thrive from afar.
I just want them to keep on with their beautiful lives, enjoying each other and their babies.
Also I want him to walk into the Struggly with Jill M-Fing Biden on his arm.
Is that too much to ask? Lol.
Are you kidding?! When these people run out of plausible engagements, they manufacture some. Hm, such as when Princess Diana will absolutely require a memorial service honoring her next birthday’s anniversary? Or a service honoring when they decided to take a break from bashing Diana and speculating about her mental health in an effort to elevate Charles or his, what-to-call-her, his wife? Why won’t Harry come? Will the Sussexes come, or won’t they, we (the BM) need the extra money. How about commemorating the second anniversary of the queen’s final death tremor?
I’m pretty sure that the Daily Mail has all airports in the UK and LA/CA on 24 hrs watch, as they do every time they know beforehand that he (they: H&M) plan/s to come the the UK and leaving. This harassment is unhinched AF.
The private jet narrative (what a sin! Harry always said that he will fly private, only if necessary or for safety of his family) will be the constant element in the tabloid and media reporting in the UK the following days. What else do they have to try to tarnish his campaigning credibility?
Presumably because it would mean they couldn’t keep their travel plans private. Also, as soon as they arrive at the airport, someone else could buy a ticket to be on the same flight. Also, it would mean facing the press when they land. Again, with their location made public.
I worry about Harry’s security when the paps stalk him like this. Not like they don’t know his security risks.
He’s flying alone though
Oh, that’s right. Crazy people never try to harm those who are traveling alone, do they?
NEWS FLASH: Rich people fly private! Including wealthy climate activists who are actively working to develop alternatives to fossil fuels. It might seem hypocritical, and perhaps it is. It’s also, quite simply, the way of the world. Rich people fly private. Get a life, Daily Mail.
The British media need to look no further than Pegs and Buttons for environmentalists who fly private regularly. They use helicopters on the regular and I’m sure they didn’t go commercial to whatever fancy destination they went to during their month-long Easter holiday.
Isn’t Willie just protecting his family too?
@ Tessa, of course not!! They are simply trying to start early on the bash fest which is why they are all up in arms about every little action of Harry but Bullyiam is safely allowed to continue committing horrendous crimes of environmental factors every single day!!!! Which he should be called out on given his EarthSh@t so-called foundation.
lol Harry flew commercial, according to People mag. (they reported it on Friday afternoon,.)
I don’t believe he will have travelled private
They are just speculating
Harry flew commercial with American Airlines. As usual the Fail spreads the shizz, lets it fester so that Harry gets slammed, then cleans up afterward when the damage is done.
I’m not gonna judge him one little bit for taking a private jet. To me, it means he’s gonna book it out of the UK the moment the ceremony is over. He should be back at home by 7 PM in time to cut the cake with Archie.
Plus after the Charles, the RF and their minions have done everything in their power to make it nearly impossible to have appropriate security and the RR, BM have stirred up hate for him constantly, they’ve got no standing to attack how he chooses to move around in the UK. A private jet would give him, his team more flexibility and control than flying commercial and dealing with Heathrow arrivals and everything that goes with that.
Plus he can book it early if he deems that necessary.
I’m looking forward to the harry cam tomorrow tracking him back to the airport after the coronation, lol.
I’m looking forward to it too 😀You know all day today and tomorrow it’s going to be Harry! Harry! Harry 🤣
There will definitely be helicopters following Harry’s movements and one stationed over that airfield tomorrow to catch Harry boarding the plane back after the Chubbly. Stalkers. It’s going to be OJ white Bronco type coverage.
Which only gives him more evidence for RAVEC as to how he and his family are endangered and need protection.
They’ll probably do a split-screen, with Harry peacing out on the right side 😂
Airspace will be cleared of aircraft and drones most of tomorrow to accommodate the flypast so I think any stalking of Harry will be limited to today.
@Snuffles, yep, it’s the quickest way to escape this toxic bloody island. Let’s not talk about the fact that William could buy his own private jet, just by useing up his frequent flier points?!! And just how bloody low is this paper “his american wife!!?” she has a name and a fkn title so USE THEM. I hope that every American sees this paper for what it is, and by association ANY AND EVERY sister paper and anyone who works for them in the US?! So it seems that they believe that every private plane leaving the US has Harry on board 🤣😂🤣😂, and Harry couldn’t care less where he sits, or what he wears so let this sht paper eat it’s jealous little heart out because everyone knows, what ever Harry Wears he will look better and more regal than any of them, and Every camera will look for him. That’s IF he even attends, especially after what soames said! Look we all know it’s a Lord who owns this rag, and probably his willy wonka gold ticket of attendance at the coronation was given to him by willy to print this crap, unfortunately all it’s done is prove, that Harry has some VERY influential friends, who could by and sell this rag, so eat your heart out lord snooty and Prince pegathon
I caught that “American wife” dig too. Wasn’t that one of their favourite complaints about her, that she was “too American”? We all know what they were itching to say. May those rags get sunk soon. The way they ramp up hate regularly is diabolical.
I am so proud of harry and he thinks of his own family getting back for Archie birthday.
Such a contract to how he was treated by his father. Good on him for breaking that nasty cycle
Private airplanes are more polluting, HOWEVER, the DF is rather precious about attacking Harry over this considering how many OTHER members of the RF, conservatives, and business people such as Murdoch and the owner of the DF fly private.
Eff the “uniform humiliation.” And it certainly sounds like they’re using Dr Soon-Shiong’s name like a racist dog whistle.
That’s always been the thing with the private jets. Do I wish Harry didn’t ride in one? Yes. Do i understand why sometimes he does, especially with M and the children? Yes.
But the hypocrisy in these conversations is so maddening. how many helicopter rides has William taken in the last week alone??? And then do Kate. And then do Camilla. And then Charles. And then lets talk about private plane usage from those two WITHIN the UK.
bring the same energy or all of them and then maybe people might take your criticism of Harry a little more seriously.
Doesn’t Charles ONLY travel in private jets, ever? And he might even need more than one since he allegedly brings his own bedroom furniture (or something? Definitely his own toilet, I think) everyplace he goes. And Charles has been considered an “environmentalist” since like the early 70’s. So they can really calm down about Harry taking one. Especially when the media themselves are the ones who put Harry in such constant danger.
Also, Harry isn’t the one who’s going to be sailing around London in a brand-new literal golden coach tomorrow, ffs.
This is where I land as well (no pun intended). I mostly wish that Harry didnt NEED to take private travel to feel safe.
Mostly because I wish that there wasnt a monarchy at all… ha!
I can’t work myself up to feel any sort of way about him flying private jet when they’re literally stalking airports and private planes to see if he’s arrived. This is such a security risk for him, and if flying private means he doesn’t have to deal with a circus at LAX or Heathrow and doesn’t have to be concerned about being chased to where he’s staying (Especially if it’s not on Windsor grounds) then good. He typically flies commercial and obviously tries to make this something that’s rare.
Agree.
“Private airplanes are more polluting…” Chuck the T’ird converted to private jets years ago and has never looked back. Interesting that DF has given readers the cost of suspected Gulfstream aircraft without providing the wingspan (joke), whether the people flying used carbon offsets, or provided rationale for dog-whistling aircraft owner’s Asian name. Tells a lot about DF audience.
Sorry but aren’t all these celebratory fly-pasts rather polluting? Flying jets over people just for entertainment seems to get a pass it doesn’t deserve.
You are so correct. I would be willing to bet (and my husband is a civilian pilot) that the fly-over military planes burn more fuel than a private jet
What about the over priced chubbly? What about the money spent on that? If it is Harry hope he will be safe and hope he gets out quickly.
The DM are against private jets when it suits them. I’m going to assume Harry is not in the UK until it’s confirmed. But the press is going to stalk Harry’s every move.
Will has to use private jets when he goes to those expensive island destinations.
Given the level of attack the British press is on and all the security issues, this is the one time I’m actually happy that Harry is taking a private jet in and out.
Ditto. The press has worked hard to create the very environment that makes it prudent for Harry to fly private.
Lol: I was going to write: It’s all about the Benjamins. I guess in this case, it’s all about the Chucks?
I thought It was decided that harry word have no formal role. So why is there talk is speculation. I hope he sits rows back from the wails. Though Kate may be seen turning around watching harry
Exactly. Kate is running on full volume public support of her nastiness. She’ll make sure to keep turning around or getting near to H, just so the tabloids can write it up as the special connection they used to have. She is SO transparent.
Lmaoooo the image of a DF editor sitting all through the night staring intently as Flightradar is just too funny.
The level of insanity is just….wow
Yes, someone was up all night monitoring Flight Tracker and is now feeling punchy.
The level of detail about the plane in that article is OUT OF CONTROL
Lmaoooo!! You guys turns out he arrived on a commercial flight
The dam staff obsessed over flightradar for nothing 😂😂😂😂
Can’t wait til he’s safely back home! Hope he feels all the love and light we are sending him 💗🙏🏻🌟
👆This💯 I wish that fervently, and that this day is as painless as possible for Harry.
These press clowns don’t know if Harry is in the UK. They’re speculating about a private jet out of CA. I knew the paps would be casing the major airports. Previous stories had Harry flying commercial. The BM is mad they lost a money shot.
Yeah, PH MAY be have flown in on that plane. Or maybe somebody from the company that owns it flew in? But because they can find a line leading back to PH, let’s assume. And, if it turns out not, they won’t apologize or take the article down. They also don’t know how many people were on that flight and if it was already coming to the UK for some reason and PH hitched a ride. It would be even funnier if the jet was used by some of KC’s concert performers.
@Equality
Thank you! I was thinking the exact same thing.
But also. Maybe he flew commercial. I love Harry being a ninja.
CTV channel in Canada just showed him going by BP in a motorcade — maybe on his way to a hotel? So he’s there already.
My pet scenario has the whole Sussex family and their friends chilling out in France for the past week. (Didn’t Elton John turn down the Chubbly?) So, Harry pops over early tomorrow, attends the hat fitting and then flies back to Archie’s birthday celebrations in France… while the British media continue to stake out flights to the US.
It’s the Fail, therefore it’s bullshit, but they clearly have been on airport watch just for Harry.
“ The Duke of Sussex will see his father King Charles III crowned at Westminster Abbey. But there is speculation he will have no formal role in the service and may even be sat several rows back from his brother William and other working royals.”
Yes, he will see his father get his shiny hat, but that’s where the true statement of the obvious ends. Wherever Harry sits, all eyes and cameras will be on him. The number of “working royals” is so small at this point, I doubt they can fill a row in the cavernous WA, but Harry probably prefers to be separated from that.
Personally, I’m glad he flew private (IF he did) so he can bail immediately after the Clowning.
I get the impression that Harry really doesn’t care where he sits? But petty little things like seating are all they have over Harry now, so they’ll wield whatever they possibly can as “punishment.”
I don’t think Harry cares where they put him, either. Because he’s only there for his father; when it’s over he.is.gone. At the end of the day, history will show his dignity in the face of their cruelty.
God bless Harry.
He’ll never be allowed to wear the uniform he earned serving with the British Armed Forces for 10 years and fighting in a war for England. The others will wear their unearned military uniforms and fake badges like the costumes they are. They’ll hector Harry for the rest of his life to return, just so they can do shit like this to him. I’m sure they have many more little slings and arrows like this awaiting him. They will try to humiliate him in EVERY way possible, small insults and large, just everything they can throw at him. He is a far better man than I to attend, because I wouldn’t.
They are alarmingly oblivious to how bad it looks that a combat veteran is not allowed to wear a uniform while the rest of his family steals honor.
It’s going to be a parade of stolen valor tomorrow, but Harry’s innate dignity can’t be diminished.
@QuiteContrary, well said.
It’s hilarious that they didn’t realize when that last set of photos came out that Harry being the only one in a suit made him look like the “important” one and made the rest of the family members look like his bodyguards 😂
After all the sh*t they put him through about his uniform for the funeral, I doubt it bothers him anymore. He’s probably not even p*ssed off about it, figuring it’s just par for the course. And I very seriously doubt he’s humiliated. He’s got a sense of self-worth they’re not factoring in.
Well Harry always seems to outshine his family members in their tinpot dictatorship uniforms and hats laden with cheezy unearned medals and braids. He, on the other hand, looks like James Bond.
Oh! I like your comment!
It would be amusing to find out that this is just a decoy arranged by security to have some friendly tech mogul time their flight to London so that the press stops looking for Harry.
I had the same thought. A decoy plane. It does seem a bit early to show up. If Harry goes private, he could land in the UK 2 hours before the ceremony and be wheels up 2 hours after the ceremony ends.
He would need 4 Pilots.
Why do I have this feeling that they might not be in Montecito, maybe somewhere closer to the coronation.
The British media are determined to undermine Harry’s security to the greatest extent possible. Whatever he chooses to do: private flight, decoys, etc to maintain his ability to come and go securely is fine by me. My god, they are stalking airports. They can’t stop acting like jealous, abusive exes.
Reading this just makes me feel so dirty. the DM is so obsessed with Harry in a deranged way. They are literally tracking private planes from California hoping against hope that one may be Harry’s.
I think it makes sense he’s flying private if he plans on getting out of there ASAP tomorrow.
I’ve decided to donate to a Harry charity to show some kind of positive support, and wash off the tabloid negativity dust in the process.
Harry is the Schrödinger’s Prince.
“May have already landed” and “It is not known if he was on board.” My goodness, I simply can’t believe that the Friday before Charles’ Chubbly the BM is busy writing speculative stories on Prince Harry — someone who has lived in America for the past three years. I’m speechless.
Yes, let’s not talk about the private jets for celebrities to attend Earthshot in Boston last year, when the actual recipients had to stay home.
didn’t David Beckham fly private from Saudi Arabia for the ceremony and then flew BACK?
How many will fly private to the con? Do the other monarchs and heads of state attending fly commercial?
I was going to say the exact same thing. How come William doesn’t get this treatment if he is so concerned about the environment. The hypocrisy is mind blowing.
They travelled commercial.
You know 100% that they traveled commercial? Or is that what the UK media put out? They supposedly flew commercial with that Flybe stunt they got caught out on too.
William and Kate flew commercial to Boston. the other presenters and such did not (like Beckham.)
The handful of times W&K travel commercial it is all performative. They took 50+ helicopter trips, at least weekly, for private travel during the pandemic years. They regularly borrow the Duke of Westminster’s jet to fly private for their beach and ski holidays. They regularly use the taxpayer-funded helos for William to visit his mistress and Kate to go shopping with mummy.
Let’s not forget the FlyBe stunt.
Ignore the fools in the media. They’re like cats chasing their tails, only the cats are cute. The fools aren’t. Tomorrow this will all be over and Harry will be safe at home. I am so sick of this Chubby stuff. It is nauseating as are Charles and the Sidepiece. Good bye and good riddance. Much love to Harry and Meghan and their adorable children.
The Guardian just put out a great podcast pre-coronation covering the royal’s finances as well as what we can expect on coronation day. Similar content as their recent investigative articles. It’s really well produced, the music is well done and just 5 episodes makes it an easy listen. Podcast: “Today in Focus”. Episodes called” “Cost of the Crown”. Apologies if a Celebitcher or Kaiser already mentioned and I missed!
Thanks, I’m going to check it out.
Agree, the podcast is great.
I’m listening to it now. I just started the episode about slavery. The deep dive into the stolen jewels and gifts was really jaw dropping.
Thanks for mentioning this, I’ve now got my weekend listening sorted.
I really do love the community here.
Thanks Ocho – will def give it a listen. The Guardian seems to be the only publication that has a balanced view of this nonsense.
What no talk about not being allow on the Balcony?
Poor Chucky all his plans are blowing up in his face, riff raff for entertainment, his golden carriage is a lightening magnet, had enact laws to stop people from protesting, when not bus in children to perform like kids in North Korea.
Yeah that fabulous balcony everyone wants to be on! It a darn upstairs PORCH. That’s a big deal? Hello! I’d rather sit on my lanai and watch the palm trees. Harry’s house has a porch.
The Fail is reporting a downpour in London. People outside saving a spot for the Chubbly parade route were soaked to the gills, as if they were in a flood. Some said they were in sleeping bags but kept warm. Bad weather may impact Harry’s travel.
I live in Van Nuys, literally a couple blocks from the airport. It is NOT an hour away from Montecito. I wish it was.
Came on to make the same comment. The British press need to realize that people can access Google maps at some point. They simply don’t care about being accurate. Premise is that If you repeat the lie enough – that Montecito is LA- you make it true.
Ha! Even Google says it’s more like an hour & a half, but those of us who actually drive places in California know it will take longer.
As we say in America though, facts are stubborn things. The BM can’t erase geographical locations just by wishing it.
I was just coming to say the same thing. I live right next to Van Nuys, and there is no way it is an hour from Montecito/Santa Barbara. It’s a good 2-3 hours depending on traffic.
Prayers UP! I just want Prince Harry to arrive and leave safely.
Harry should submit this article in his case against RAVEC as example 1-1000000 on why he and his family are unsafe in the UK. Slam dunk.
my ex was in aviation military and vivilian and he advised me that planes private or commercial need to fly and obtain a certain number of flught hours to be so even if harry didn’t take a private jet.. that plane is going to fly somewhere … that day of within those few days. that plane has to get so many flight hours in ever year with passengers or without. I much rather it flys fulfilling a purpose than flying empty save for the pilot and skeleton crew. So i have no issue with him flying private in this instance…
Good info to know. That’s probably part of the reason some lease and loan out their jets.
My husband is a civilian pilot too. Planes, especially ATPs (Air Transport Plane), have to be flown so many hours a month in the USA per FAA regulations and/or insurance company requirements.
precisely that plane is going to fly with or without people on it.. he may have taken that private jet but you never know
there was more than just him. i bet his security came over , his assistant , maybe the owner of the plane was in there . i bet money that near every of its 20 seats were filled with a person.
There are lots of assumptions in that article and in the comments.
1. Why is the media tracking plane owners coming into the country and reporting int in the papers?
2. Are these people not entitled to privacy? The owner is neither royal or celebrity. He is suspected because he’s from California???
3. The daily mail has no idea if Harry is in the country. Why do folks assume this is correct?
No comment on airlines as this story is not verified.
That was seriously effed up, including that part about the plane owner. How was any of that in the public interest, as they would likely claim if someone were to complain.
The funny part is that Patrick Soon-Shiong/Nant Capital is also the owner of the Los Angeles Times, which they very curiously left put. Would be very interesting to see the LA times doing a deep dive on Lord Harmsworthy…
Actually, he flew commercial and will return Saturday as they have already reported. Yes. I do have a source-not Sussex related in any way. Geez I sound like the awful, lying Rota, but it’s true.
Thank you for this tidbit — now maybe the “how DARE he fly private” pearl clutchers will calm down.
I remember when “the palace sources” were frustrated because they didn’t know anything about Harry’s accommodations or travel plans. But the first thing they did after receiving the information was run to the tabloids to tell them all about it. Why does the public need to know where Harry is staying? And if that’s really important, why not wait to share the info once he’s left the country, so as to not compromise his security?
Windsors really do not know the meaning of “family”. What a sad, out of touch, miserable group of people.
The Daily Fail wants to report that Harry stayed at the “Dorchester” so they can bitch about the price of the room, claim he took a freebie or both.
The Daily Fail wants to report that Harry stayed at a Travelodge so they can claim he is broke due to Meghan’s woke spending.
The Daily Fail wants to report that Harry stayed with a friend so they claim his credit card was rejected at the Travelodge when he tried to check-in.
All three of the above stories by three different reporters will appear in the Daily Fail within 24 hours of Harry leaving the UK.
@Bay, damn this is so accurate
BayTampaBay – You win DF commentary of the day 😂 !!!
Maybe he is there, maybe he isn’t, Maybe he will wear a uniform, maybe he won’t! LMAO…they know nothing! I personally hope he wear a slim cut Dior suit! Yum! I am so happy that it is raining and may it continue!
A beautifully cut Dior suit would be great! My wish, though, is for at least one pic of Harry wearing an Invictus Games UNBROKEN t-shirt — either boarding the plane back to California, or once he’s safely home.
Vax Live wasn’t promoting vaccine eficacy, it was vaccine equity. There is a big difference. I think he was so passionate bc of Sentebale. He knows his HIV+ kids had a hard time accessing newer medications keeping the diagnosis for them a death sentence longer than Western world.
They have no idea what he is doing so they are making things up.
Pathetic stalkers .
Keep them wondering Harry 😁
It irks me to no end that Harry, an actual veteran, is not allowed to wear his uniform.
This obsession with Prince Harry is like awaiting the arrival of the true king! Despite the petty words Harry’s presence is the gift this hat party needs for clicks. Chuck never stood a chance once he let his jealousy blind him from reality.
It’s not just a money making obsession, it’s bullying and harassment into submission, because he has multiple lawsuits against the rags, this one in particular. They want to let him know that they will continue to follow his every move (business and private), and to harass and bully him (and Meghan), till the end (whenever that end may be).
Rain, rain. Come and stay.
Wash out Chucky’s king cosplay.
😝👏👏
Actually my dearest wish is that it pours down on everyone else but Harry, and the sun shines a beam down on him just as his lunkhead father gets his crown. Divine judgement.
The Con-A-Nation is staring mainly American celebrities, so the private jet could belong to a number for Americans with means who live in LA.
With that said, I absolutely love how the UK press has to use context clues to figure out the if, when, how of Harry’s business. The palace leaks are annoying. Harry and Meg have grown used to moving in silence until all of their ducks are in a row. If they want you to know something, they’ll tell you. None of that “source” nonsense.
I could barely get through those paragraphs. They delight in wrong their most unhinged and cruelest thoughts about Harry. And to what purpose? They’ve run him and his family off, hurting their bottom line. So what’s the deal with the non-stop hate towards this man and his wife? Who’s foaming at the mouth for all this negativity and vitriol? Feel like I need a shower reading these screeds from UK peeps. Touch grass. Find something nice in your life because these thoughts don’t reflect well on the UK or the King.
What is the deal? Look at my comment above.
Poor Harry. What an awful FN mess of a family he has to keep putting up with.
Well, get it over with. Like having surgery. Just get it over with and then move on.
This entire BS is as if the Monty Python team was on truly bad, evil drugs and it inventing this entire foolish waste of money.
A very, very bad acid trip.
Our world is literally on fire due to climate change. I truly do not understand how anyone who even pretends to care about the well-being of the earth can choose to travel by a private jet. (In fact, the NY Times has an editorial on this issue today, “Private Jet Travel Is Booming. And Shameful. And We’re All Paying For It.”) This isn’t just about Harry– NO ONE should be traveling by private jet. And if and when someone does make the choice to blithely bound up the steps to board a private jet, I honestly don’t want to hear them ever talk about protecting the environment again — they can silently write checks or otherwise support such causes, but the idea that they would then lecture the “little people” on how we live or travel is laughable.
Grace, they don’t know where Harry is. If you read the article again, you’ll see it’s all supposition and not fact. I would be very surprised to learn that Harry didn’t fly commercial. He does it and slips in and out of the UK without the bm knowing. I seriously doubt his trip for the coronation is any different.
You should direct your letter to the brf. They use private helicopters and private planes ALL of the time.
“You should direct your letter to the brf.” Yes! Be sure to tell those BRFCo folken who chopper all over the place without public oversight because they’ve raised their trip mileage rptg threshold to exceed usual maximum trip miles. They also use private jets belonging to aristo & rich friends that doesn’t get reported.
I don’t agree with flying private for most people, but Harry has a huge bullseye on his back and deliberate effing around with his security. He faces constant death threats from both within the UK and without (hello Taliban) and in a jostling scrum of paparazzi anyone could slip in with a gun and silencer. Occasionally he has to choose the lesser of 2 evils — fly private or possibly be assassinated.
Greta is right. If we’re going to be shaming people for flying then we need to be consistent about it. Everyone should be minimizing their flights, period. Air travel of (almost) any kind is extremely damaging. One single commercial flight can undo a whole years worth of carbon savings from driving an electric car. One single commercial flight spews more carbon than heating a home for an entire year. The global tourism industry emits more carbon than the global construction industry. It’s fun to mock the hypocrisy of celebrities but average people get all huffy if you point out that they’re also causing long-term damage to the planet for their own vacations.
Well turns out he actually did fly commercial, so you can climb off your soapbox now. 🙄
This is all guess work by the fail. But we shouldn’t be hypocritical either, Harry can fly commercial just like the rest of the royal family could. I know they don’t but we should be holding all royals and celebs to account, not hold our favourites to different standards. Why should we be watching our carbon footprint while they use private jets.
Absolutely agree, Ayse! I don’t think ANYONE should be above flying commerical at this point.
@Alyse and @Grace, I agree with you both, on a broad level, and if we lived in an ideal world, no one would fly in private jets anymore. But we’re stuck in the world we’ve got, and plenty of people do use them (including other BRF members, ESPECIALLY Charles), so what I can’t stand is the hypocrisy of the media only harping on Harry’s use of a private plane while ignoring all of the others. Not to mention his security needs shot through the roof after what the British media did to him and Meghan, so if anyone is going to use one, at least Harry has a reason to and deserves to. (And I do think he flies commercial as much as he can.)
@Blithe I started typing before I saw your comment, but ITA.
@Nota, not every opinion we might disagree with means the commenter is a troll…we’re having a polite discussion.
So, you don’t agree that Harry — or Harry, Meghan and their kids — have considerable, and possibly even unique security needs? Or you do agree, at least somewhat, but feel that these needs can always be adequately addressed with commercial flights?
No, they’re simply trolling.
Alyse & Grace, when you can show us FACTS that Harry is flying by private jet, your comments are more supposition as is the article above.
I am willing to bet money that Harry is flying commercial. He does it all of the time and the bm never know where he’s at. Why would that change now?
As I stated above, I too agree that far too many people who don’t need the extra security fly private and shame on them. However, Harry and his family are prime targets for terrorists, extremists and nut jobs, thanks in big part to the despicable racist BM. What’s more important? Flying private or risking your life and your family’s lives? The Sussexes already got chased out of England in a blind panic because of this, and it doesn’t seem to be subsiding in the least.
Alyse – You are assuming that people cannot watch their “carbon footprint while they use private jets.” You should educate yourself about carbon offsets. Looking forward to your next post where you expound on why you think you know Harry did or didn’t use commercial flight and why you think you know Harry did or didn’t use carbon offsets to travel.
These two are absolutely trolling. You’re welcome to go back to your favs in the UK and discuss climate change with Mr earthsh!t and his weekly helicopter rides, if not more (took one yesterday as it happens). All those secret holidays on private planes. They rarely fly commercial. And you’re welcome not to fly yourself. I’m sure you’ll feel better. Harry flies judiciously. Willy flies to see his mistress.
Their bile spilleth over. Harry’s “american wife?!” What a bitchy little piece of verbiage.
@Tamsin, I caught that too. Gross
This so why I don’t want him to go at all. I hope he sent an empty plane to see what the reaction is and then decides not to go at all. All my prayers are going into the basket today.
When he leaves after the ceremony tomorrow he can finally cut ties with the royal family. There will be no need for him to come back until Charles’s funeral
He’s coming back for the trial in mid June but yes he doesn’t need to attend anymore royal events except funerals
I honestly wouldn’t be surprised if William banned him from Charles’s funeral
A theory: Harry could stay (definitely somewhere else, like in a nearby country, and do his businesses at hand after the crowning) for the opening of the trial on May 9th next week, and comeback in June for his testimony in the Mirror courtcase. In that case, Archie’s birthday, probably, has been celebrated already with his entire family.
The RF and RR will go through the same wash, rinse, repeat cycle if there are memorials held for the late queen and Philip. Whenever that happens, I’d lay a bet that they’ll try to drag him back for those occasions and we’ll have more of the “will he, won’t he, how dare he” routine. They’ll still try, but hopefully Harry will maintain his distance unless it’s for an extremely important occasion. And as @Lorelei said, he may not be able to attend his father’s funeral if William continues to be his petty, vindictive self and bars him.
Harry is a very brave man to step foot into that royal shit pile.
Royal shit pile sums it up perfectly. Seeing today’s event with Kate and her shoes etc, I am so turned off this lot. I hope it bloody pours and pours.
That’s…a lot of detail on a law-abiding resident in another country. How ’bout they dig into Charles’ finances? William’s? Andrew’s? You get where I’m going with this.
Maybe the nantworks people decided to go to England. Maybe they are conducting business.
The mail have exposed themselves. They can do this level of high end journalism but
they can’t figure out boris Johnsons “lockdown parties”. Can’t figure out how many kids boris Johnson has. Who is spilling sawage into great Britain waterways. Are they spilling on purpose. Why is Britain’s heating bills so high when privatization was suppose to be a good thing. Do the Russian oligarchs still own large swathes of London.
Daily mail get to reporting on these issues.
I’m such a Harry fan but am perplexed at why he is attending this. The only way to not feed the British beast that is the Daily Mail is to not go at all, and stay happily ensconced in California. I hope he can get in and out without having to deal with too many members of that toxic, awful family. Sickening coronation all around, especially Queen Tampon’s ceremony.
Just commented the same. I wish he wasn’t here, for his sake. The BRF really needs him, that’s for sure. Kate is on an absolute high, as if she’s won him for the day. It’s sickening. I would’ve stayed home with my family.
Exactly. If he decided there was no way to avoid it (again, not sure why he decided that), it seems like it would have made more sense to go a week early, spend the week in the U.K. doing community-oriented activities that put the focus on ordinary Brits over the royals (maybe he could have visited Grenfell, given Meghan’s work there?), then attended the ceremony for exactly one hour and jetted back home the second the crown was placed on Charles’ head. That way: focus is on working Brits; no way to criticize private jet being used for 24 hours; etc.
Ah well. Supporting Harry through this nightmare!
I understand why he’s going. He’s going because he was invited, and despite their strained transactional relationship, he loves his father. Harry is the better man.
He literally cannot win.
Not going: Ingrate!
Going: No procession for you! No military uniform!
I really wish he’d not come. They don’t deserve for him to be here, taking part in this charade and having to be in the orbit of his hating brother. Having seen Kate today I’m convinced she’ll try to publicly flirt with him and get it captured on camera; the woman is addled with envy.
The Fail just saw a plane land and assumed it was him; they’ve got no pics of him and don’t even claim that anyone saw him.
For what it’s worth PageSix just claimed that Harry was spotted getting off a commercial flight a little bit ago.
We know Harry can travel by stealth because NONE of the tabloids knew he was in the UK when he showed up at the court for his lawsuit against ANL in March. They would have been leaking that info left and right before he showed up had they known. It was a surprise to everyone and maybe Charles knew about it like an hour before (I doubt Harry told William).
So the tabs probably have it all wrong. Maybe he flew commercial and not private! Wishing him fortitude for the 24 hours of nonsense to follow.
My opinion and my opinion only. If I were in charge of his security. I would have had him fly out to Paris, monday or tuesday. How long is a flight from Paris to England? Cant be to long can it. Then he flies in early the morning of. Then get back into a car and leaves the same way.
3AM Mountain time.
Good! I can sleep through it!
I wanted to say thank you to the Celebitchy team for offering a respectful hate free space for which to discuss the royal family.
There are far too many websites whose sole focus is to spread around caustic, off the chain, cruel hatred about Meghan Markle, her kids, and husband.
Thank you Celebitchy for this respectful, hate free space.
I know this isn’t the point at all but on what planet is Van Nuys only an hour from Montecito?
There’s also an airport in Santa Barbara so why wouldn’t he fly out of there instead driving a couple hours to Van Nuys. These reporters are stupid.
If TikTok has taught me anything, it’s that Western Europeans, on average, do not understand how big the US is. One guy from the UK posted about how he was going to drive from one of the major metroplexes in Texas to LA and he figured it would take a day. So many commenters were telling him that you can spend an entire day driving through Texas and not leave Texas.
@CLARISSE MCCLELLAN
There is a Montecito apartment in Van Nuys. 🤣🤣🤣
@ANOTHER ANNA
Lol
When I was a kid in Texas and we would travel to family living outside of Texas, our joke was once we hit the Texas border, we were almost there!
We lived in Dallas and they lived in AZ at the time. Texas seemed to go on forever!
Sunny O, I’m glad you found this site, then. This is a hate-free space and I’ve visited this site for many years. I enjoy it immensely. I hope you stop by again for the delicious tea served here!
I’d assume 99.5% of the people attending are arriving in private jets.
Harry is the son of The King of England. Is he supposed to fly over in biz class on SW Airlines using a coupon?
Charles the Spender, is costing the tax payers $100M + but Harry should hitchhike?
Go on.
I have no idea how they get the idea that Montecito is an hour from Van Nuys. I live nearby Van Nuys & have driven up that way many times and it’s closer to 2 hours. PLUS, lots of celebrities in HW have their private plans at Van Nuys. So, it could be anyone. Not saying it’s not Good Prince Harry, but it’s just as likely it’s not. Just sayin….
According to the Daily Mail, Harry flew in from Los Angeles on American Airlines flight AA136, which landed at 11:23 am at London Heathrow on Friday.
There is no confirmation that Harry is even on this flight, they have no idea where he’s staying and thought he’s not taking part in the ceremony other than to witness it. Now hearing he flew commercial. I don’t know why every time Harry or Meghan fly anywhere, everyone acts like it’s this momentous event that will reveal their supposed hypocrisy or ruin the planet. It’s the same old stories over and over again. Hope we get a Meghan sighting tomorrow just for the hell of it.
The only way he can get in and out of there is so that he head back to Cali safely for Archie’s bday. Commercial flights would be a pain because of delays or even cancellations. Plus, I don’t understand why BP is always in his business. Focus on Rose and why her son looks like pegs.
He arrived via British Airways on a commercial flight. The Daily Mail lied (again).
Several upthread have pointed out that the deranged British media is giving furious stalker ex vibes. They are enraged and broken-hearted that Harry left Salt Island, effectively out of their clutches. How dare he marry a biracial (Black) American, have children with her, and leave the UK? How dare he remove a huge part of their income stream? How dare he “turn his back on Britain”? How dare he prioritize his wife and children over William and Charles? It really sticks in their craw that a Black woman and her children mean more to Harry than the entire Firm and that circus.
The horrible Windsors and the rota rats will never admit the truth: that they only have themselves and their reprehensible industry to blame.
Prince Harry arrived in the UK on an American Airlines commercial jet. This was also printed in the Daily Mail. This is why the smear campaign against Meghan is so successful. They print a lie in the morning and correct it in the afternoon, but the morning story has already spread and gathered hundreds of clicks, particularly from the hateful comments for which the lie was created.
I hurt for Harry and Meghan because trolls and so-called “supporters” jump on the stories without verification. Is it the excitement, the money? What is it?
Good question. I think it’s commonly known as insanity @Robin.

DM had an article that I saw that said he flew in commercial. American Airlines.
Just to bring a receipt for my original comment (#25) Harry flew commercial and will return that way also
https://twitter.com/i/status/1439279042176421888
In summary, Harry took a flight out of California to England that is not paid by Taxpayers.
H flew commercial and I’m beginning to seriously doubt he’ll stay for only 24 hours. The jet lag alone will be something dreadful. Flying from NYC to London isn’t too bad. Flying COMMERCIAL from London to NYC to LAX is a long haul. I’m wondering whether H&M postponed (or already held) the b-day party celebrations, thus giving Daddy time to recover from the emotionally draining Coronation experience, and rest up to fully enjoy celebrating the birth of his firstborn son. I know what I would do.
Harry is amazing, he came by private jet and commercial.
Always knew he was actually a twin..
He must be tired ,hope he has a nap before the Conanation.
Instead of focusing on the coronation dm and other tabs are slamming Meghan and harry with derangers clamoring for divorce and harry to start over. Charles sits back and let’s it happen even deploying Nicholas Soames. Sickening.
