Amen!

​@@Junjo11I dare say William and Catherine relationship dynamic are completely different than those of the Windsors

Both vile self serving Nazi supporter's Wallis Simpson was a slut who made herself at home in the bed of various Nazis including Von Ribbentrop at the same time Edward was putting his middle finger up to our country and people!! She also passed on British secrets to the Nazis.

don't have to dig. his betrayal of those fighting nazis is there for all to see.

@@odysseusprodromou3260 Sorry, I don't get it.

​@deana upchurch he was an ally with Hitler, and thought if the Nazis win the war he could get the throne.

@@deanaupchurch1593 He was a known Nazi sympathiser, but recently it has been revealed that he and Wallis were in constant contact with Nazi officials, including General von Ribbentrop, even after the commencement of the Battle of Britain. Wallis kept a signed picture of Ribbentrop on her dresser. Even before his abdication, it was known that he was pro-Nazi. His own father put him and Wallis under surveillance. In 1937, he did a tour of Germany and visited a concentration camp, so he can’t be excused for not seeing the Nazis for the monsters they were. He was a famously stupid man who abdicated, then regretted his choice and conspired with the Nazis to win the war so they would reinstate him as a puppet king. The reason there isn’t an entire chapter devoted to this in every WWII history book is that, if it had been revealed at the time that he was committing treason, the punishment was execution and that would have put the monarchy in jeopardy, to have a brother/uncle of the monarch executed for treason.

Sar Rhodes I agree with you. Wonderful to hear.

How refreshing that every other word isn’t sprinkled with “like” or “you know”.

not all people! only the aristocrats and royalty...

Sar Rhodes I love listening to the way old English was spoken. I wish it’s taught in school. Americans use too much slangs and short cuts. It’s a shame.

He was frozen out of his family and country.

She didn’t follow her heart and he didn’t know true self

Cassie Miller ,,

This man looked totally defeated. His hands... the nervous, stammering answers to questions. It's just plain sad.

It was a shame he had to abdicate, I think he would have been a great king

Unlike the Duke and Duchess of Sussex the Duke of Windsor didn't slag off the Royal family in that interview.

@@vanessalouise8988 I’d say that perhaps their concerns were justified. There was no protection given to the couple. Especially Meghan. The tabloid press was weaponized against them. They are still at it and as Tom Bower openly remarked “it’s Meghan I’m after”. We call that saying the quiet part out loud. That family deserves whatever they’ve got coming. Their supporters on this side of the pond are right-wing, white supremacists. Personally I hope it helps speed the end of a ridiculous anachronism in the 21st century.

He collaborated with Hitler therefore the Queen could not stand him.He was 2:58 treacherous towards his own country!!

@@evalon9129 Yes the Duke and Duchess of Windsor met Adolf Hitler their pictures of them shaking hands ✋ with him which at the time was traitorous unlike Meghan who got a HRH style title wallis never did she was just the Duchess of Windsor at least when she died she was allowed to be buried with her husband at the cemetery at Windsor.

@@vanessalouise8988 0 0

yes, a bit of a contrast with a certain "current" prince and his wife

While their stories are a bit similar, the current prince is bullied like he abdicated, betrayed his country or went away with Hitler altogether 😂😂 Edward was offered a substantial maintenance for the rest of his life when he left . Harry was criticized and ridiculed. What’s there not be grateful for?

@@elenamastiukova2787 we must not forget that Edward was Prin ce of Wal es for 25 years and he saved a fortun e from the large in com e he had all those years from the Duchy of Corn wall... and Edward never pub licly b ad-m outhed the Royal Famil y.. . HARRY has

@@essessessesq Harry’s problem is not so much with his relatives but with the institution controlling his family. He’s not the first one to speak out against the restrictions and stuffiness, his mother did too. But the level of hatred towards Harry and Megan is just unprecedented. It’s like they’ve done something so unspeakable. People wishing them to break up, saying Megan isn’t biological mother of their kids, etc. They sure don’t deserve such hostility.

@@elenamastiukova2787 good points. though it could be worse....in Thailand [Siam] anyone who criticizes the King is sent to jail!

I N That’s a very intriguing question. He definitely looked miserable and uncomfortable and sadly, more than anything, totally resigned to such emotions.

How must one feel being pushed into abdication and being exiled, ostracized, ridiculized and called a traitor? The official narrative is hardly to believe.

@@cor3944 exactly. His ex family still run it.

There are suggestions that in later life he confided to one or two close friends that he regretted the abdication. He enjoyed the trappings and privilege of the Royal lifestyle, but didn't much care for the duties and responsibilities that went with it.

He was sick at this time with cancer

Yes, with dignity, too. Unlike Ginge and Whinge.

I think he was very careful with his words to get his point across. Brilliant interview.

Dignified, intelligent and treacherous, a coward who fled to the South of France at the first sign of action, a Nazi sympathiser.

Intelligent? I dont know but arrogant and cruel for sure. He was willing to sell the country to Hitler. The things he and his wife said in letters and other exchanges, include some really dumb things too.

The D&D were both traitors, liars and self-absorbed narcissists.

He was a traitor to his country! He knew hitlers plans before the holocaust and wanted a German Britain! Meaning he was willing to allow his family and citizens die at the hand of Hitler! Nothing dignified!

They were nazi sympathizers.

Its called dying.

He was a Nazi sympathiser, how crazy is that!

He also met Hitler

@@robbieogle8622deep down I can tell u would've loved to meet Hitler yourself!

There's something, sort of calming in the way he speaks. He really was, a man way ahead of his time.

@@annamariagorski1092 If you're talking about Edward - he was a Hitler supporter who turned on his country in exchange for re-taking the crown if Hitler occupied England. Hitler was bombing the hell out of England - his countrymen being murdered while he was giving this interview. He wasn't a man ahead of his time. He was a power hungry turncoat.

What's amazing about the voice of a hideous couple of idiots who supported Hitler and the Nazis ?

Perhaps he was hoping for a history of peace.

Why can’t Megan and Harry have the class of Edward and Mrs Simpson ! If anyone had much to say, is these people after all they took the brunt of it all as divorce is natural in today’s royal family and marriage to a common person and Megan is as common as they come!

Yes i am and i think they were pretty hard on Wallis and she had tried to escape!

Meghan is the new modern and even more destructive Wallis.

@Otto Günsche Total scumbag...shame I used to love her character in suits...but shes so sinister now.

I thought exactly the same-Charles and the Duke of Windsor look remarkably alike!

His eyes were always sad. They said it was from the abuse from his father King George.

@@karendalsadik7119 The whole family has very prominent sad eyes. It’s rumoured that my 3x great grandmother was an illegitimate daughter of Edward VII, and we all have the eyes that seemed to pass down. That and many lookalikes of Edward VII, George V and others in the family including myself.

Karendal Sadik Agree. More then just physical trait there’s a far deeper sadness. Not surprising given the truth about that institution, British aristocracy and royal families in the world going back centuries. Same deep sadness in Diana’s eyes.

@@seanohara3631 like n. Romanov , king george, and wilhem ,all grandsons of queen Victoria. Those press great war photos of all three together they look like triplets. Strong genes. Also makes WWI even more of a disaster, these guys were family, only 10 years after Victorias death they started the war and she arranged all those marriages to maintain peace and imperial power by them all being family, her children. But ,well...they clearly still felt they could treat real soldiers like toys and many countries ended up abolishing the Emperors as the result

@@seanohara3631 have you ever considered doing a dna test?

Truly. So sad. We would still have gotten the great Lillybet, though, eventually

Like many people in those days. These days no one sticks thru anything

She actually cheated on him and after everything he left for her i felt so sorry for him,but he stuck it out and she did always go back to him and he suffered it... Poor man .

I think they look happy. What a great man atleast he did not spoilt the life of a woman (like Diana) he was man enough to abdicate. A lot of respect for him

Sounds like Harry and Meghan

@Peter Peter I'm not sure that his actual actions could be construed as treason though I have no doubt that had he remained king he would have ended up arrested and eventually executed for treason or else been declared incompetent and appointed a regent who would govern in his place. He admired Hitler too much. But I don't think he quite crossed the line into treason. His brother knew how he felt about Hitler and so he ordered him to the Bahamas. Here in this interview he speaks of his position in the Bahamas stoically but in reality he considered being governor of the Bahamas as a humiliation. He viewed it as Trump would have viewed being appointed assistant to the ambassador to Mexico. Basically such a position amounted to being banished. It is well known that Hitler wanted to re install him as king after he won the war but of course he never won the war. It is not known if they had an actual deal in place for this to happen though it would not shock me if he had. He never spoke of such.

He got up off his death bed to bow to his queen his niece when she visited him

Even The Duchess is very well spoken and dignified. I thought she had been portrayed as a Brash Out There American. She is certainly much more Duchess material than Me Again Markle.

He looked sad about not being accepted to work.

@@katbar6066 lol!

What's wonderful about a disgusting traitor who supported Hitler and the Nazis ?

they had enough nazis

He had colluded with the nazi’s!! He was a traitor! It’s proven!

Nah no pity he like harry today didn't want to do the job but still thought he could have all the benefits.

DJ - The casting in general was excellent

In the final episodes it was Geraldine Chaplin, who was amazing. In the first two seasons it was Lia Williams. They were both perfect.

I think Geraldine Chaplin was too old for the role

That I will give him total credit for.Unlike others he did not publicly bite the hand that fed him.

I wonder why? They probably would of stopped their allowance!

@@nickyjones2709 they had much more than the allowance to live on. All assets that Edward did not disclose to his brother - and not completely legally obtained.

Because they paid his stipend lol, he wouldn’t want to jeopardize that and have to work to support himself

@@LisaG442 That's true, but there's probably nothing interesting about the private lives of his brother or niece (the current Queen). He was the one considered the "playboy" and "rebel" with an active social life. The young royals and politicians might have a lot of secret scandals, but the Queen and her father have been public figures for over a century. Their biggest scandal was probably being related to a former king who abdicated.

Hi how are you doing?

blabla bla would you cry when he met Hitler and played golf while others were at war???? hahaha

There may be something that runs in the family. I heard a recording of Prince Charles reading poetry (I can't remember now whose poetry, maybe Dylan Thomas?) and I was very impressed at how well he spoke. The Prince has an excellent voice for reading poetry.

Andrew Brendan It may run in the family somewhat, but King George VI had a horrible stammer. I suffer from one as well, it sucks

@@nicole.stanhopeWell,he won an Oscar for that.

@@nicole.stanhope I had too, you will outgrow it eventually. Yes, I noticed that he tends to stammer too. In the sense that he repeats some words.

He was a fascist sympathiser, playboy, and indiscreet. Don't forget that he has had time to reflect since his abdication. He's an old man.

Wonderful life moment. How precious.

Wow Lukas, intetesting, although if it were me, I would have refused to have the Nazi lovers in my car.

Of your great grandfather? Of the castle ? Of the honeymoon ? Or was it your great grandfather that was proud ? Why ?

@@TheAmandahc Great answer! And Hitler and Goering aren't remembered for their 'impeccable manners' either, but rather darker qualities!

‘Impeccable manners!’ Does that include betraying her own nation to help Hitler, advising to bomb London continuously, and spilling all the beans to the Nazi as well?

Would that be the same awareness he used to cozy up to Hitler? Since he promised them the throne, the crown, and everything else that goes with it, as soon as he would take out the royal family and fly a nazi flag over Buckingham Palace.

At 7:25 Edward himself answers your comment. It is also stunning that so many of the deprived areas he mentions are still (after how many years!) pretty much in the same situation😮: deprived, left behind, forgotten. Who and when will really care for those people?!

Oh of course he was so invested in life of poor and unfortunate people that he and her colluded with Hitler 🤯🙄 Jesus, the amount of brainwashed idiots buying into his and RF bs is astonishing

Have you heard of the Prince's Trust and its achievements over the decades? Edward was never that charitable. He talks a great deal about morality but this is a man who admired Hitler and was willing to let Britain fall in exchange for the crown he said to have given up for love. Also; the deprived places of those times are gentrified and very exclusive exclusive.

people wouldn't have been so poor if these parasites didn't exist

Wistful, and even a tinge mournful.

I was just thinking how horribly sad he seemed.

Maybe because he found out the Walis lady did not really love him. Check out her biography on how she still loved the man she had to divorced because the ex king had said if he leave him he’ll kill himself, she felt scared an knew the scandal it would put her in. She was wicked. That’s why he looks miserable. It said be careful what you wish for.

@@ChristIsLord247 sad and bitter

Funny Diecast me as well can u believe this man was banished from his family for finding his true love ?

@@shhhaua9426 He was a selfish man who placed his own interests above those of the nation. Duty meant nothing to him. And let's not forget that he and his "wife" were Nazi sympathizers. Thank God he wasn't King during the war.

L Jones there is only speculation he was a Nazi sympathiser. I would have thought that rumour would be dead by now. He was not at all selfish the govnt at the time deserted him and forced their view on him. History has shown that when he died the nation mourned him with great sympathy for how he was treated.

@@johnoakes4143 No, it's not mere speculation, it's historical fact. Edward VIII voiced support for Hitler and the Nazis when they came to power. He also overlooked their persecution of Jewish people saying, it was "“no business of ours to interfere in Germany’s internal affairs either regarding Jews or regarding anything else.” He was also a supporter of Oswald Mosley the leader of the British Union of Fascists. Edward and Wallis were Hitler's guests during their visit to Germany in 1937. I believe, as do many others, that it was an act of Divine intervention that this terrible man had such a short reign. He would have been a disastrous king The stress brought on by his selfishness led to the untimely death of his brother, King George VI -- who, unlike his older brother Edward, was a marvelous and heroic King.

So am I 😛

traitor and nazi sympathizers why the made up names for the saxe coburg and gotha dynasty aka England's royal family, Edward VIII sent to Nassau Bahamas because the plot to replace him as England's NAzi king was foiled , most of the uk state had Nazi sympathizers right to the top .. , AND most of these people had gone underground .... founder of Englands state media the BBc was knighted by the royals later writing in his memoirs , how he admired ,how the Nazi s were cleansing... Europe in the 1930's. Reith also directly over saw Edward VIII abdication speech . He was much later given a life peerage of Lord .

@@onthemarketblog6444 let's not forget the suspicions surrounded his younger brother's death when the plane crashed... can't remember the name of the documentary but it covered this and the suggestion Wallis was a much needed excuse to force abdication since Edward was a Nazi sympathizer. Great points.

Utterly miserable and resentful. Petulant, privileged pratts

Wallis left him on his death bed as he lay dying-shopping, dining at fine restaurants. His nurse said he was like a lamb crying for its mother "Wallis, Wallis." His nurse said it was shockingly sad and pathetic.

The original Harry and Meghan

That’s because they lived in a pre public age. The most gauche teenager is media savvy now.

TermiteVideo you have a point. I would have thought that for them presentation would be everything. They lived such a shallow existence, the facade was all they had.

He's a grown man who made choices, not a naive child.

He was a Nazi sympathizer who attempted to plot with the Germans to overthrow the monarchy and rule as a puppet king under the third reich. Don’t feel sorry for him.

He abdicated his duty to marry an unsuitable wife who was bad influence.I shudder imagining her as queen.If only she was not a Nazi Sympathizer.

He was totally dependent on wallace.

@@AlexxEnglishh, The Queen Mother was also a Nazi sympathiser, see that video where she is vigorously teaching Elizabeth The Nazi salute! Long after King George V changed their German name to Windsor. It is a little shocking that Elizabeth's father King George Vl approved of that.

Regret is etched on my face. Who doesn't have regret?

The true question here is how you managed italics in a KZfaq comment. Well done.

Leena Stark i disagree. Watch any interviews of royalty or British politicians from 1969 and they behave in similar way. They lived together till their death. She was a divorcee and if she would be desperately unhappy with him she would leave, but she didn’t. I think they loved each other and made the best of the situation.

I cannot see any regret, only bitterness and being powerless to talk openly.

@@lizbbb7326 stupid thing to say

Niall Morris The books about him say England got blessed when he abdicated in favor of his good-hearted brother. Edward was totally self-absorbed and aides said he could have cared less about the English people. He wasn’t exactly the most masculine guy, she probably did boss him.

He gave up everything for her. Probably still happier though than if he'd stayed.

Jane Eyre You are quite right that England was blessed when Edward abdicated. A very weak and selfish man and he got his desserts when he married Wallis Simpson. She wore the pants and weak men are usually attracted to women who can boss them around. Possibly it makes the man feel more secure.

Fibbertigibbet The Queen Mother did dislike Wallis Simpson because she was the catalyst for her husband being thrust in to being king when he was ill prepared however, he did go on to make a good King. Have you seen the movie "The Kings Speech" Jeffrey Rush when he met the Queen asked her if the movie was true to form and she agreed. If you have not seen the movie I urge you to see it.

Typical countryside gossip

Edward seems charismatic just as Harry was the beloved Prince. The Firm protected both men from being honestly portrayed in the media. They were/are both spoiled, lazy, untalented, stubborn and in love with money.

..reforming the image of the monarchy - getting them to speak German and wear swastikas

Cringe and ginge???

Oh my… I don’t know why but I feel he was enticed by Wallis and I think after he abdicated and the honeymoon excitement died down and as he got older, memories of royal life came flooding back. … I think Wallis was self obsessed. … And this was filmed 50 years ago.

He was The Traitor King.

His wife loved those SS men in uniform, dueling scars and deaths heads,and the best party's..!

She was emotionally distant from him. Theirs was just an affair to her. He was totally won over by her strong personality.

One person cannot make another person strong or healed. Each person must learn to be strong and to heal themselves.

She just wanted to be Queen careless about him. Heard she cheated on him, he was all alone.

She definitely wasn't as fond of him as he was of her. But he had learned he was dying of throat cancer shortly before giving this interview, and that's why he chose to do it. He knew it would be his last chance to tell his side of the story.

I don't think she ever acknowledged the fact that he left everything for her .maybe , he realised she wasn't for him too late that the damage was already done .

She told him more than once she didn't love him & the only reason she mentioned marriage is because she underestimated how stupid he really was.Wally thought he'd choose the throne over her then spent the rest of her life trapped with a man she couldn't stand.Once he abdicated she had no choice,either marry him or be globally blackballed.

@@phoney4387 I've never heard that she didn't love him/hated him. I have heard that she and he were both bisexual, she loving the ladies more and he the men. Maybe they used one another as smokescreens.

@@phoney4387 I wonder why she didn't move back home before he abdicated. I don't think he was up to being king. He had very effeminate tendencies and even though he was raised from birth to one day become King, he did not seem attuned to it. His poor brother, who was never brought up to be king was a nervous wreck. I think Bertie did very well as King, but some have said that it took a lot out of him. Elizabeth Bowes-Lyon, his wife, was said to have helped him overcome a lot and gave him confidence. I always think that people who criticize the monarchy do not realize that it is a life of duty first. Idk if King Charles III will be anything like his late mother the Queen, but I firmly believe that William will be a great King when it comes time.

There's documented evidence of how much she despised him@@heyokaempath5802 And she didn't go home because if she left him after he stupidly abdicated for her, she wouldn't have been welcome.She would've embarrassed the Windsors even more by leaving & the Windors are one of the most globally powerful governments in the world.Imagine pissing them off.
