Oops

Sorry, all, for letting the blog go cold.

I have no excuse - except the beautiful summer weather and the "white nights" we are currently experiencing in Estonia.

I'll put up a new post now. Please accept my apologies.

Welcome back! You were missed. Glad you got to enjoy some time off.
I saw the comments on moderation and guessed what happened, it’s happened before. ;o)

Anyhow, I don’t blame you, the weather is wonderful, but a tad hot for me at 27c and melting. ;o)

I came across this on LSA while this blog was down. I saved it as i thought it was interesting.

Hester Klingnam is a journalist and documentary researcher for a German TV media. I checked her page on Quora and she says that they are currently doing a documentary on how Meghan's PR machinery works. She says they estimate that the minimum Meghan has spent on PR is $7m from January till date.

She says she can confirm that Doria has moved into the house with them and that Marcus Anderson has been living with them for the paat eight weeks and Harry is very unhappy about it.

Question: "Why is it that the Quora questions criticizing Meghan, Duchess of Sussex disappeared for the last two months and now they're suddenly returning? Hester Klingnam's answer: I think you would be surprised at the amount of time Meghan’s PR team are putting into trying to save her quickly deteriorating image across the world.

Facebook, YouTube, Quora, Twitter and so on are banned in China. Zhihu is the Quora of China. Pressure has been put on them to be supportive of Meghan, but they have refused to cooperate. (My company in Germany is in talks with them. We will be producing a publication on this very subject). Sina Weibo, China’s version of Twitter, have also turned down requests to write glowing tweets about her. Also Baidu Tieba, a very popular search engine forum with young people will not cooperate. It is clear that China will not be capitulate when faced with outside threats.

My question is, how much money is being spent on this, and who is paying for it? It doesn’t come cheap. Our people have put a conservative estimate on this of seven million dollars since January 1st. We have been busy researching this subject, and preparing magazine articles and a TV documentary in collaboration with Arte, the state-owned French-German arts channel, which will be shown later this year.
As I said, I think you would be surprised if you knew what was happening.

Question: Will your documentary be published in English?

Hester Klingnam's answer: Elle, Esquire, The Lady, Marie Claire, Grazia and Vanity Fair are all published in English. We’re going for massive coverage. Nothing will appear until Harry’s ongoing disagreement with Marcus Anderson has been sorted, one way or another. Things are coming to a head, so hopefully we can put the stories to bed soon. We’re still collecting and processing the information that keeps coming in from various sources.

Question: Is it true that Doria has moved in with them?

Hester's answer: I can confirm that Doria has moved in with them. Also, Marcus is living with them, and has been for the last 8 weeks. Meghan wants him to go with her and Harry when they move from the Beverly Ridge Estates. Harry is not happy with this proposal from Meghan.

She also explains that TMI, the owners of Maire Claire and 46 other publications has a working relationship with Sunshine Sachs and thats why we keep seeing Meghan's press releases.

Answer to Why is Marie Claire magazine reporting that Meghan is ‘secretly’ contacting a U.K. charity? How is that “secret” then? by Hester Klingnam Hester Klingnam's answer to Why is Marie Claire magazine reporting that Meghan is ‘secretly’ contacting a U.K. charity? How is that “secret” then? - Quora

Do you all remember when I made the argument that Meghan doesn't have the numbers and her PR isn't organic? Well, this journalist has confirmed all I've been saying. She's spending millions on PR but the result isn't commensurate with the amount she's spending.

SO glad you are back! I worry so.

As for the PR . . that is ridiculous. I just can't fathom the combination of 1. being so untalented* and 2. spending so much on transparent lies.

*In this I include ANY publicizable attribute: beauty, talent, intelligence, accomplishments, a worthy cause. (Imagine, for instance, 7 million dollars (pounds, euros) spent fighting human trafficking!)

@Nutty Phew, what a relief!!! Was just worried you had been bullied and "cancelled". Take your vacay!!! Much appreciation to you and best wishes to all Nutties!!!
ShadeeRrrowz said…
Whew! Thank goodness! I was worried about you!
AnnieC said…
So relieved to see the new posts!! Was also worried. Glad to hear you’ve enjoyed some nice weather and good times :)

Exactly what AnnieC said :-) Glad you have been enjoying your summer.

I hadn’t realized just how much I enjoy your blog until it wasn’t here for a short time. Thank you for all your work and insight!

There has been a flurry of negative articles on the Sussexes lately. They are eating their hearts out over the concurrent flurry of positive coverage for the other Royals, who are getting back out there to thank various frontline workers. The Queen's secret weapon, Sophie Wessex, was spotted looking very down-to-earth normal as she volunteered at a food bank packing parcels of food.

Catherine's lovely photos of her husband with their children continue to document this happy growing family, and the recently-released photo of William and Charles taken this past Christmas at Sandringham to mark Father's Day was very touching.

While stories trickle out about the obscene amounts of money Meg is spending on PR, rumor also has it that Harry was spotted arriving back in England over the weekend, solo. On Father's Day, as it happened . . no huge festivities planned in L.A. obviously.

*If* it's true that Tyler Perry's mansion is now currently housing Marcus Anderson & Doria, I can imagine that Harry isn't too happy. Marcus may (seems inevitably that he *has*) played a pivotal role in introducing Harry and Meg through his Soho House contacts . . but what is he doing couch-surfing with the Harkles in their borrowed digs NOW, if they are supposedly so happily married and parenting a one-year-old? I don't know if Marcus is/was Meg's boyfriend or something other (that rhymes with 'simp'), but his presence, whether real or implied has hung over the Sussex 'relationship' like a bad smell. Beyond shady. As for Doria, I imagine she'd love the chance to use Tyler Perry's pool and other amenities for as long as her daughter is grifting free accommodation out of bona fide Hollywood star/F.O.O. (Friend of Oprah) Mr. Perry. In between bouts of changing Archie's nappy, of course.

I think it's all over but the shouting, frankly. The Sussexes have nominally made it as legally married to past the second anniversary, as requested by HMTQ. I think the '12-month review' was to engineer a divorce deal and extract Harry back to the U.K. In any case, Hazza's six-month visa was set to expire, if they've actually been hiding out in L.A. since before Christmas, as has been suggested. I don't think they were ever in Canada, frankly, and that's all been an elaborate blind.

Nothing Meg does is comprehensible, or possibly, even real. We have all been led a merry dance these last two years, and it seems that that was always the plan all along.

Glad to have you and this blog back Nutty! I hope the sun was beautiful in your neck of the woods. I wanted to email you but I couldn't find your email for this blog @Nutty.
MaLissa said…
Hey Nutty welcome back and I'm glad you took some time off for yourself. Thanks for the new posts also :)

@Jdubya thanks for the Quora article. Haven't had time to read any articles lately - life happens - nothing bad just busy :)

@Hikari great post. Yeah I think Harry's visa is about to expire so given that and obviously other things going on, he's headed back to dad and granny.
abbyh said…

I realized how much I really enjoy this all.

Thank you Nutty for offering this.
Glad you're enjoying a holiday and are now back Nutty. I was worried someone had tried to have you cancelled. My mornings ar complete now, I can read your blog with my coffee!

Hello All Nutties and the Princess of Nutties!

I must admit, I thought oh, no, Nutty has been doxxed by sugars, so glad that is not the case! Everyone deserves a vacation, especially at mid-sommer~, I join you all in thanking Nutty for her service!

I’m ashamed to admit this, but I panicked when I couldn’t access your blog the past couple of days. I thought you’d pulled up sticks and moved to some secret web address where I’d never be able to find you again—and so close to the publication of Lady C’s book!!!

It’s such a relief to know you’re still here, Nutty!

Summer break! It is very well deserved, Nutty. It was only two weeks, after all.
Scandi Sanskrit said…
Just Googled "white nights". I'm jelly.

And please don't apologize for having a life. As another commenter said upthread, you owe us absolutely nothing. Thank you for everything that you do and for running this blog. 💜💜
Blithe Spirit said…
Hi Nutty, I am so happy you're back! Hope you had a fantastic break. It was very worrying for us Nutties though - I was hoping you had not been shut down. Thank you for providing this great place!
Mrs Trestle said…
I am so pleased you're back Nutty. This blog has been a lifesaver for me since last August which was the last time I posted.

Thank you for allowing this space to us all. Reading and hearing the various theories
has been something I have looked forward to during my illness.

I am so glad you've been having some downtime and enjoying the glorious weather. Thank you again.

No need to apologise! You have a life outside this blog, and we Nutties are lucky to have you create this space for our conversation. Glad you got yourself some down time!

Is This the REAL THING THIS TIME? or is this just stringing people along?

Recently there was (yet another) post somewhere out in the world about how they will soon divorce.  And my first thought was: Haven't I heard this before?  which moved quickly to: how many times have I heard this (through the years)? There were a number of questions raised which ... I don't know.  I'm not a lawyer.  One of the points which has been raised is that KC would somehow be shelling out beaucoup money to get her to go "away".  That he has all this money stashed away and can pull it out at a moment's notice.  But does he? He inherited a lot of "stuff" from his mother but ... isn't it a lot of tangible stuff like properties? and with that staff to maintain it and insurance.  Inside said properties is art, antique furniture and other "old stuff" which may be valuable" but ... that kind of thing is subject to the whims and bank accounts of the rarified people who may be interested in it (which is not most of us in terms of bei

A Quiet Interlude

 Not much appears to be going on. Living Legends came and went without fanfare ... what's the next event?   Super Bowl - Sunday February 11th?  Oscar's - March 10th?   In the mean time, some things are still rolling along in various starts and stops like Samantha's law suit. Or tax season is about to begin in the US.  The IRS just never goes away.  Nor do bills (utility, cable, mortgage, food, cars, security, landscape people, cleaning people, koi person and so on).  There's always another one.  Elsewhere others just continue to glide forward without a real hint of being disrupted by some news out of California.   That would be the new King and Queen or the Prince/Princess of Wales.   Yes there are health risks which seemed to come out of nowhere.  But.  The difference is that these people are calmly living their lives with minimal drama.  

Christmas is Coming

 The recent post which does mention that the information is speculative and the response got me thinking. It was the one about having them be present at Christmas but must produce the kids. Interesting thought, isn't it? Would they show?  What would we see?  Would there now be photos from the rota?   We often hear of just some rando meeting of rando strangers.  It's odd, isn't it that random strangers just happen to recognize her/them and they have a whole conversation.  Most recently it was from some stranger who raved in some video (link not supplied in the article) that they met and talked and listened to HW talk about her daughter.  There was the requisite comment about HW of how she is/was so kind).  If people are kind, does the world need strangers to tell us (are we that kind of stupid?) or can we come to that conclusion by seeing their kindness in action?  Service. They seem to always be talking about their kids, parenthood and yet, they never seem to have the kids
