    Let the speculation begin.

    Prince Andrew?

      An obvious option, but I reckon the royal family would shut down even reporting that they are trying to report something.

      I’m struggling to think of someone who’s been fairly prominent the last few years but fallen off the grid a bit. Politicians are just far too egotistical/morally devoid now to have mental breakdowns so I’d have to guess a TV celeb… Philip Scofield!

      Oh, Russell Brand! Could be something new he’s trying to fend off mid-trial. Sounds like the kind of crap he’d pull too.

      Nah I think minor celeb. Low level presenter.

      Or maybe a sportsperson.

      Doubt it, he doesn’t strike me as having the self awareness to consider self harming. I’m pretty sure he still thinks his position as a royal means he’s above the petty laws and morality that the little people have to concern themselves with.

      It’s Nigel Farage. Don’t ask me how I know because I made it up.

        It probably is Farage. If we bet on this on Predictit.org, the nonprofit betting site ran by academics, Farage and Andrew would be like 40 each I bet.

        No need to lower yourself to using his tactics.

        I was kind of thinking that too, Andrew has already had all his shit come out.

          There’s always more details, which are always more horrifying.
