Somehow this calls to mind A Fish Called Wanda and various story elements in it around gorillas, crime, its financial enticements, nookie and hurt feelings. (Sorry a favourite quote for me.)

Quote: Wanda : [after Otto breaks in on Wanda and Archie in Archie’s flat and hangs him out the window] I was dealing with something delicate, Otto. I’m setting up a guy who’s incredibly important to us, [John Cleese] who’s going to tell me where the loot is and if they’re going to come and arrest you. And you come loping in like Rambo without a jockstrap and you dangle him out a fifth-floor window. Now, was that smart? Was it shrewd? Was it good tactics? Or was it stupid?
Otto West : Don’t call me stupid.
Wanda : Oh, right! To call you stupid would be an insult to stupid people! I’ve known sheep that could outwit you. I’ve worn dresses with higher IQs. But you think you’re an intellectual, don’t you, ape?
Otto West : Apes don’t read philosophy.
Wanda : Yes they do, Otto. They just don’t understand it. Now let me correct you on a couple of things, OK? Aristotle was not Belgian. The central message of Buddhism is not “Every man for himself.” And the London Underground is not a political movement. Those are all mistakes, Otto. I looked them up.https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0095159/characters/nm0000177

Poor ol’ Prince Harry lost his mum young and has been having a ‘hard’ life ever since. You can read all about it, in his book a ghost writer wrote “Spare” (free on audible). Oh to be not quite special enough! Boo hoo. Crash n burn. Bwahahaaa! (off topic, soz).
Harry is not poor and not old
Nearly 40 and he’ll be relatively poor once his wife is finished with him / bled him dry
