went out of her way to state that the Queen and Prince Philip had been nothing but good to them and that she was in fairly regular contact with the Queen. I was a bit surprised to hear about Philip, knowing (at least by report) how he talks, but I do know that grandchildren and great-grands can soften people up a good deal. It raised my opinion of the old boy a bit. (And Harry backed her up.)

Now some of the others, I don't know. I wouldn't trust Andrew as far as I could throw him, which wouldn't be far, me being a small person. Camilla either, and she holds a lot of sway over Charles. I think Anne is too busy to care, as is Edward. Some of the shirttail relatives are nasty though.
