Very happy with the unity in the RF, miss PC terribly. They have a real sense of duty and no desire for drama.
Hope the Drama Duo ride off to sunset soon.
@Canellelabelle
Officers worthy of honor must conduct themselves with honor. They must respect their leadership and those that serve under them. They must gain the respect of those they lead in order to be respected. PW didn't serve in a war, but he served as a medi-evac helicopter pilot
@lady_doi
Megs narcissistic behavior got in the way of H&M's popularity. Had they joined the RF at Balmoral and Sandringham and 'got along' their merching value would have increased. Megs was allowed to work, even be an actress. Harry probably could have as well.
Look at Zara & Mike,
@storiesbyjemay
Imagine the thoughts of the other wives, MM up there in the center, no other wives up there. Notice there are not pictures of her talking with the others.
It is really strange that Archie is not there, should be both kids.
@storiesbyjemay
I hope PC is enjoying the private time out of the spotlight she has been in for 20 years. Being a mom, enjoying the house, getting refreshed as she recovers.
I suspect this has been the best gift PW could have given her.
Her popularity keeps rising, whether present or absent
@storiesbyjemay
Never is absolute. Unlikely is more like it, it would take many years of Harry's redemption with a clear change of heart. This is without Meghan, there is a whole pile of broken glass to cross for Meghan. The RF is sad that Harry is gone, but the metal of many daggers remain
I don't understand the pattern of Sugars, I've seen many times in the past reports of serious attacks. Well today I must have struck a nerve, received many really nasty replies. I so want to reply back but I feel best to just ignore. Thoughts?
@lady_doi
Let's Preserve this Moment. A limited edition product where the competition ranges from a bargain synthetic product @ $4 and good organic jam that is excellent for $6. So a limited edition of 50 jars @ $100 makes just $ 5,000. Hard to cover the mortgage at that.
@TheWantonWench
My memory isn't great but I recall they asked about Elizabeth which was fine, then suddenly it was Lilibet which was PP's personal nick name for her. The crazy thing is they named her that, but never took the girl to meet QE
@storiesbyjemay
Both my sons are 40+, I'm aware of their having a dozen close friends from college, their wives as well. Meghan doesn't seem to have any from Northwestern, and Harry has very few. Meghan jettisoned them. So strange.
@RestingDollface
It was the death knell for me, in particular she knew this was coming out when she did the super deep, respectful Curtsy at QE's funeral. The only time she had respect for QE, or was it that she knew it was getting filmed.
@chadasianwife
The time is ripe for when BP (and KP) could bring in house their media. It wasn't pre-Covid but it is now. Register the photos with Getty & require Royal-ties (where did this name come from LOL) for use. All going to the Royal charities. Sell the rights to the Xmas concert
@MeghansMole
Up until my hip went out 6 years ago we would do 1 or 2 trips each year to Whistler for over 20 years, usually 5 days. Wonderful restaurants, we only did places we could walk in. Blue Jeans were fine almost everywhere. We all just blended in.
This "We're Important" look
@lady_doi
Catherine has never called the paps, William wouldn't think of it. They treat the hospital staff with respect. Not one of the staff wants to rat out their guests they are honored to serve. Sealed lips all around.
@RNN_RoyalNews
Do a Google search on "Invictus", the 1st 5 pages have no pictures of athletes. This is typical of the articles I saw. The only disabled veteran is Harry himself, for mental disorders not named.
@AllexmarieHoll1
Blackmail might be too strong, but H&M did coerce the RF to go along with this charade. It is time to correct it.
If phrased the right way, it may not be a PR blunder for KC. It would be a full broadside to H&M, but the LOS must be 'true'. It is time.
@Canellelabelle
The US military has Non-commissioned officers, the Navy they are called Chief & Senior Chiefs. Sort of the blue collar foremen for the enlisted crew. The highest chief on the vessel is the COB "Chief of the Boat". Even a retired Admiral would be honored to receive an award
@lady_doi
Yes, they are paying twice, by taxes for NHS they are not using and paying for the private care they receive. Not once have I heard they denigrate NHS or try and cut their budget, instead they have been supportive. The charities that the RF is involved with are very supportive
@ccrook1974
She had landed the gig of the career, but much of the pay is room & board and expenses paid. But it is likely to have a run of at least 20 seasons. It's a travelling road show, meeting people around the work and all one need to perform is a gracious, happy, caring Princess.
@SuburbanDuchess
The RF, but in particular W&C, represent and live life to the standards I grew up with. The Golden Rule kind of things. The be the best parent, good worker, and help those in need.
Sadly so much of society is falling into a chasm. Used to go to downtown Seattle for fun nights
@storiesbyjemay
The Africa Parks thing is particularly bad. As President, the responsibility for the entities conduct is on your shoulders. Were there any proactive things done, training, satisfactory leadership throughout the organization. Is the core mission being accomplished? Not good
@mog1717
@storiesbyjemay
It is likely there are a number of big family gatherings each year where Charles sees a couple dozen kids playing hard together. He is probably out there playing with them. H & M really messed up.
She hits a bases loaded home run again. Just excellent.
William as a charity patron highlights the charity and their mission. Harry grifts from his charities diverting resources from the mission to feed ME ME & MEgan.
The past 48 hours have been quite entertaining in seeing the desperation from Harry, H&M fans and the British Press to receive Royal validation😏
For a duo who claim they do not need the Royal family, they sure moan a lot about Prince William and King Charles not being present
@LairdOfTheManor
I'm OK with trans people, but damn it, keep it out of my face. How can catering to a few % by annoying 50+% good marketing. Our society has just gone loony.
Bud Lite did similar and it cost them a 20% loss of market share & billions. 6 months later they have not recovered
@Defenestrate123
@TezzaBradshaw
It is wonderful for her she 'got away'. Interesting how PH wants Privacy but will violate everyone else's Privacy if he gains from it. PH put Chelsea out there a bunch with this trial!
A search on "Invictus" on X or Google brings back mostly posts about H & M. Very little on the veterans. Quite strange - a program for veterans is not about veterans - it's the Meghan Fashion Show. Is this sustainable?
There were tidbits that IG Dusseldorf was in the Red.
@storiesbyjemay
It seems PC selects based on "What will I enjoy" vs what will impress the most. When appropriate, she loves wearing comfy jeans, or the most amazing dress. Or her Coronation head piece - more stunning than diamonds.
@RoyalDickie
I find it interesting how the British Monarchy is becoming more relevant now, it adds well to the Parliament and Commonwealth. It brings stability at a time the politics are troubling.
The only thing missing is the flaming batons.
Veterans fighting bravely for the right to be Meghan's Minions in a Fashion Parade. So pathetic, how many more times will IG disrespect the veterans before changing (or vanishing)
I hear Meghan Markle will be travelling to the UK with Harry in May to celebrate 10 years of the Invictus Games
Meghan Markle will be making a speech to the veterans
Why?
Meghan had nothing to do with Invictus & her presence has turned it into a joke
@Canellelabelle
In the past centuries the Crown Estates became massive. Now 3/4 of the earnings (it may be more) return to the government. So on net the BRF is a + finance wise. The BRF is working to make society better, which is sorely needed.
@storiesbyjemay
I'm hoping Lady Louise & James do become working royals. They seem favored right now to the York sisters, who I also like but the PA issues cloud their future as well.
@newmrpford
A new theme park would also be considered - Palace Land! Featured attractions will be - Hairy Prince Merry Go Round, Meghan's Curtsy Competition, Where is Archie Maze, and Find the Lilibet.
@MaryMacElveen
@centerviewnews
I just saw a tweet indicating Sophie had just 2 for security, visiting Iraq, but Haz needs 20 with guns in London.
Sophie doing the work that gets results. MM claiming others work as hers so she can get Awards.
@Fibutton
We all follow fashion, in particular those that have similar body types. Dressing like Diana is fine, dressing to BE Diana is weird. MM dresses to BE Diana too often.
@storiesbyjemay
KC knows silence is best way to deal with Narcissists, but I believe he has a plan. He has put Andrew in the freezer, PH might get some family contact, but he is OUT of the RF. How to do that with the least damage to KC reputation is being worked out and timed.
@Canellelabelle
Wow, this test. HMTQ brought in both Charles & William for a concurring decision. It now seems likely that PW chose the path the RF was to follow, because it needed to be his choice. The RF concurred and have stayed on the path.
Striking how consistent they have been since.
@NaomiSky_15
Never is a very long time. Reconciliation takes redemption, which H will take decades doing. Until that is complete the RF has not need to explain or reconcile.
@nolink29
How many people have been pictured giving QE2 that kind of smug look. How many times did QE2 see such a smug look. I am sure it was quite rare, possibly only Megs that did it multiple times.
All the artists in BAFTA, they were almost always gracious when meeting the Queen.
@storiesbyjemay
In particular Bea but also Eugenie would be good working Royals, maybe not in the inner circle but there are a huge amount of patronages that need royal visibility. I think having them as working royals to 'trade' on having PA not visible would be a win-win situation.
@lady_doi
This is a State of CA action. I recall there were 11 registered entities, some corporation, some charity, in Delaware (business friendly rules). These require filings and tax returns to other states and the federal. Usually these are all done together - so other news to come
@ParodyWhitney
-I lost my father (because I kicked him to the curb)
-Harry lost his too (because he stabbed him in the back)
-I was an only child (because I kicked both of them out)
-I didn't know anything of the RF (But I trademarked Sussex Royal 2 years before meeting PH)
-Kate made me cry!
@sage1411
The US DoD issues out special passports for travel on official business vs personal. It's a brown cover not blue. Treated far differently at entry & contact with police.
PH probably only has an official UK passport, he'll slide by on it until it expires.
@SabirahLohn
Translation "We gave him a diplomatic Visa because he used to have but no longer does hold a diplomatic position. We didn't bother reading his application then. Reading it now does not look good for us so we are huddling to come up with a better excuse. Otherwise my boss is
@hrrysgreysuit
I just looked on YT for "Polo Games", probably 5:1 for Water Polo compared to Polo on Horses. This is like a celebrity event golf tourney. For PR, Hairy was put into a team with 3 other very good players so an automatic win.
Because Hairy bought the spot, he gets the trophy
@RonniNicole1
I am all for Trans women getting a fair shake in this world. However, the absurdity is quite amazing. Guys running in Women's sports.vv,,,,Tampon dispensers in the male locker room. Fake birthing, breast feeding - when does it end.
@SuburbanDuchess
I am amazed at the hippocracy of the elite, their 'Club' is OK but will shut down the Brothel for the lesser folk. Same services but different price tags. Soho House is a chain of Brothels
@JenCarsonTaylor
A hint at the size of the silent majority - 2022 had the Jubilee, and the Queens funeral, 2023 KC's Coronation. All had record crowds & record viewers. H&M's antics made people look closer at the RF & they like what they see.
@MontecitoPolo
"A bird in hand is better than 2 in the bush" fits. Imagine if she had less ego & was smarter, she could have had a great gig for many seasons if she chose to actually be a Royal. There were plenty of patronages that supposedly were her interests.
@jomilleweb
Correction, they ARE very jealous. Harry wanted a Catherine clone as his wife, Harry wanted to be born first, Meghan so wanted to be Queen (not the Consort) with PH as first Husband, Meghan wanted the super model physique. Catherine is the perfection that MM craved.
@RNN_RoyalNews
Great post, Madeline branched off from the Royal Family into a good career helping people. She will look back and be proud of her life. Has done good.
Zara, Bea, Eugenie, and Edward all are on good paths taking an appropriate career at varying distance from the heirs.
Only
@Canellelabelle
Back in 1970-72 I was a volunteer with Rocky Mtn Rescue. Often Helos from Ft Carson would evac wounded. Helo losses (crashes) were higher than expected in Vietnam. Rescue work is quite dangerous.
My point, PW was probably in more danger than Bunker Harry was. PW quietly did
@JR42845598
Lets look at cases were blood and by marriage members have had jobs - both York sisters, Mike Tindell, Prince Edward, and PC. All have stayed in bounds with respect to the RF, that is OK. Fergie went out of bounds on many occasions but never mutinied. H&M burned all the ships
I'm a guy so a bit clueless as to fashion. Live in a navy town vs city like Seattle. My guess is I rarely see in RL women wearing dresses over $500. We have an iron in the house but not used.
Watching women, most look quite nice. Some skin showing but not revealing. I
@hrrysgreysuit
PH's trademark lawyer "these are common phrases, they can't be trademarked". PH: "Sure they can - let't try at least". Lawyer " You want to pay $100K to be told no?". PH "We'll get it". Lawyer "Prepay the fees please"

@irenebritusa
I suspect she had back at the Sussex Royal time an accomplished manager that could see the landscape & acquire all the relevant domains before others became aware. She hires advisers then doesn't listen. I'm sure there was a manager that was telling her, "not yet - we are not
I think this dress was perfect for the occassion, place
(culturally) and time of day.
I keep using stunning whenever I describe her, but
she really is a stunner.
Pietro does amazing illustrations of my two favorite women: Taylor Swift and the incredible Princess Catherine of Wales. Instead of the radio, I have youtube playing Taylor, Katy Perry, or Lady Gaga.
He brings in highlights of why they come off so elegant.
@JoanneMartino9
Wasn't this the day that the belly went from too high to around the knees?
I think the media block of this is fading, the story is now showing up in places it was banned from quite recently.
So I recall seeing posts that WME's contract has ended, but it has been quiet about WME. Two new PR heads (new staff too) for Sussex dot com.
I'm noticing so many articles in the NYPost, Mirror, etc that I thought were PR puff pieces sent out or possibly paid to post are now
@KensingtonRoyal
So it was Jan 2020 when I 1st followed the RF, learning a lot. I've realized how important these Royal Awards are, it allows those doing great for society to be acknowledged. Nothing like it in the US.

@MeghansMole
Helos are very expensive and have a huge amount of controls. Prince William appears to be be qualified for the Chinook, the Sea King, the Lynx, Squirrel HT1, Bell Griffin HT1, and the Agusta A109S Grand (the Royal Helo). It is a week of ground school and a 40 hours of flying
@PrincessPinocch
@MeghansMole
The Harkles have issued items every day this week, I am sure it will be like this for another week or more - quite sickening. Time for Charles to issue the bullying report & strip them of their titles.
@RUOKPage
H&M need the RF for their own status, but it seems they kick the RF every time. It is senseless to not visit QE2 every possible chance. Yet they declined visiting Balmoral, Sandringham, etc many times. The day before QE2 passed, H&M didn't bother to visit her.
@JenCarsonTaylor
So right Jen, KC couldn't have a better supporting cast as QC, PW, and PC. KC sees the benefit of a well run team and wants them all to shine.
@richardaeden
KP had a choice - a) release on their own page or b) tell PH and see it released by Scabies in 156 seconds.
Why would PH deserve to be told before the public? Better said, why would the RF tell PH anything, except "NO Harry" at this point.
@Mystifeye
Escorts fear being outed, it is quite dangerous, in the hobby if guys run into an escort they know, - stay quiet, pretend you don't, how will YOU explain how you know a hot woman that is 25 years younger to your SO. MM has so many escort traits is isn't funny
@Canellelabelle
Being president vs being the patron is a big different. A patron is like a godfather, an honorary position that is outside of the organization. President is the highest leader of the organization, responsible for its actions. Harry treated this charity as patron, not leader

'Down to earth' usually means someone is comfortable with themselves, no need for major cosmetic surgery and procedures. Be proud of one's heritage, others will go with it.

I'm sure there is security around but without announcement its rather safe. Most people would just smile, let them have their personal time there. I like it.

It took me a moment to remember the Pez name. OMG, I hear these are very addicting for kids. Popping them all the time, like they are candy. Dangerous, we must get a grip on this crisis immediately. I've posted a link about this dangerous stuff.
