Duchess Meghan is working quite hard at the moment to be an "influencer."
She recently took the opportunity to go on video, with Harry, to suggest that people "vote against negativity" in the upcoming US election (given Meg's simping for Michelle Obama, that means not for Donald Trump) and also took time to send a video message offering encouragement to an America's Got Talent contestant who served time in prison while being wrongly accused of a crime.
(The contestant was named Archie, the same as the Sussexes's possibly mythical child, and the Daily Mail reports that he "smiled in disbelief" upon seeing the video. He may have been smiling uncomfortably because he had no idea who the Duchess was.)
Cause and effect
The question is, is anyone really being influenced by what Meghan says?
If so, whom?
Comments
And Wild Boar. I think the Queen has expressed enthusiasm for the Tunnocks Teacake, Scotland's contribution to haute cuisine.
She was always walking around in a daze, unsure of where to stand, which way to face, when to move. Which made no sense. You'd think that her acting background would have enabled a better sense of that.
I have no receipts but only my certainty, aided by the evidence of my own eyes that both Meg and Harry more often than not showed up for their royal duties under the influence of something or other. She was decidedly high AF when she was with the Queen in Chester. A very poor actress but a big enough Narc to believe that she's successfully covering her signs of being altered.
The point of having Royal advisors is that so one is never uncertain of where to stand or where to walk, or how long one is expected to stay in one place. Meg alienated all her PAs who were there expressly to assist her and defied the RPOs' instructions about where to walk. I knew that we were dealing with something well beyond an unsure newbie making mistakes of protocol when Miss Thang barreled in front of the Queen not once but TWICE and plowed ahead, blind and deaf to any instruction.
Who does this?? World leaders, even Donald Trump, know to show deference to the Queen. Even if she were not a sovereign, it's just basic decent manners not to race ahead of an elderly lady. Nobody should have to be 'told' this explicitly--this is common humanity.
Markle is common, but humanity she does not possess. And I could understand the appeal of a bracing nip to steady the nerves before a big day, but surely the time to stay sober and in charge of yourself is when you are on a solo engagement with the Queen of England. That was just months after her wedding. If she couldn't be seen to be making an effort then, it wasn't likely to improve and it sure didn't.
From @ Hikari: “ How long have you been here ?”... “And how long have you been here ?”
Well, although she could see it was a bit daft to ask if they’d come far, it reveals the extent and depth of her creative `thought'...
That wasn't me with this particular comment but I'll jump in, since that visit to the actors' home (ie, The "I Feel Very Pregnant Today With My Oddly Sqare Pillow in a Summer Dress too Young and Two Sizes Too Small For Me" visit) was the day I finally decided that I was on to her and she was scamming the entire world with this 'pregnancy' . . I guess at minimum, Lady Muck had read enough about the Queen to learn that HM's favored conversational gambit at these 'dos is "Have you come far?" Since all the elderly residents hadn't come any distance, this was her version of that.
Meg may view herself as some sort of Democratic Party darling on a par with Michelle Obama, since they are both women of color . . but if she couldn't handle the relatively light demands of 'Royalling', she'll never make it as a political candidate. She can dream on. Our current President is an anomaly in that he had no experience in government or public service prior to deciding to run for President. Every single other President has come to the office with decades of experience in law and government, having served in a variety of state and national government positions, and/or served their country in the military. Our previous 'acting President' Mr. Reagan, made films for the War Office during the war and served as Governor of California before he was elected. He was also a renowned orator with charisma. Meg vaulted to international prominence as a result of having sex with a foreign prince. The only cause she champions is Making Meghan more Rich and Famous . .she's got no work ethic for any real job. It's laughable. She and Harry are both minuses in the charisma meter. She doesn't have enough likeability to hawk vegan smoothies on the QVC channel. I just wonder how much longer the media is going to prop up the delusions of this mentally disordered woman. This whole saga is becoming the WTF mystery of the century.
Ready for it:
Disney yesterday released a new film in the US ——— Secret Society of Second-born Royals.
“A 2020 science fantasy action superhero film, in association with the Disney Channel. In the kingdom of Illyria, second-born Sam argues against the monarchy...” eventually joining a group of other second-born royals, a group of super-powered individuals dedicated to protecting the world and serving the various monarchies...”
I imagine JH sitting on the laundry room floor, watching the trailer over and over between loads.
ie No upsetting foreign dignitaries.
Having to prove that they can be trusted to behave before going to State Banquets. It was some time after marriage before Catherine took part in one. These aren't just jolly parties - the conversations have to be conducted, I gather, with the care exercised at international summit meetings. Etiquette governs who one talks to and when - the person one's right during the first course, on the left for the second (or the other way round, I haven't checked) Married couples are not seated together.
No loose talk, think about what one says before saying it, and listening, listening, listening, and remembering what they are told. They are expected to report back on what their neighbours said.
That's a Fail then for Megsy.
Re George Michael's philanthropy: his was extremely discreet, secret, in fact. I don't think anyone knew about it not until after his death. Compare and contrast with MM's five minute stints...
Oh, wow! The Secret Society of Second-born Royals is an actual thing!!!
Disney has so many princess movies that this movie probably came about as organically as The Descendants did. But it would also be hilarious if Prince and Princess Harry's begging for voiceover work sparked someone's creative juices as well.
The question is, has HM ever stated that she love TTCs?
@Hikari - My apologies to you and whoever it was that posted the original. She's incapable of acting naturally, whether engaging with real people or on camera
"They're gonna put me in the movies
They're gonna make a big star out of me
We'll make a film about a (girl) that's sad and lonely
And all I gotta do is act naturally
Well, I'll bet you I'm a-gonna be a big star
Might win an Oscar you can't never tell
The movie's gonna make me a big star,
'Cause I can play the part so well
Well, I hope you come and see me in the movie
Then I'll know that you will plainly see
The biggest fool that's ever hit the big time
And all I gotta do is act naturally"
We'll make a scene about a (girl) that's sad and lonely
Begging down upon (her) bended knee
I'll play the part but I won't need rehearsing
All I'll have to do is act naturally
Well, I'll bet you I'm…"

Meghan's green dress was more of a supervillain look. Was I the only one reminded of The Riddler?
@Puds
Meghan's green dress was more of a supervillain look. Was I the only one reminded of The Riddler?
I think she'd probably look good in red a la mode de Scarlet Overkill in the Minions movie.
It's very bad form to repeat what the Queen says to one - Gove and Cameron both fell into that trap as well, causing Royal embarrassment.
Intentional choice, I wonder? Meg wanted to 'own' that color, as we remember all too well. I don't really recall her wearing it again after her attempt to ape Diana with a maternity dress in that color. She opted to go for the 'toxic Jolly Green Giant' shade instead after that. Whenever I see another Royal lady wearing emerald green I know that it makes Meg chew glass on the inside, so I smile.
She was chewing glass double-time with Eugenie's baby news, but she had to rush out with her 'secret PRIVATE congratulations---splashed over every news outlet that she pays. Lest anybody think she's a bad sport. HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
I would look for more pregnancy teasers coming out of Mudslide Manor any day now, coupled with more installments of the "Adventures of Arch" coupled with that 12-month old photo from South Africa.
So it's epiderm abrasion, not evidence of reverting to Caucasian after all.
Meghan 'ferociously good in bed'/psychopathy/Scobie & public made fools of.

Re: emerald green
That's actually a really good color for Meghan. That she dropped it in favor of what my youthful self called "puke green" was her biting off her nose to spite the BRF. There was her narcissistic ruining of Prince Louis's Christening photo, her disrespectful slovenliness at the mosque, etc. That last "Robbing Hood" green outfit, deliberately chosen after she had been told to dress in one of the colors of the Union Jack, was another sort of assault on the eyes. On Tumblr, Scorpiotwentythree said that Meghan was deliberately dressing so badly to create a contrast to the "free" self she had always planned to unleash later. Green was always her attack color.
As for Princess Eugenie, my guess is that her choice of emerald green wasn't an intentional swipe at all. She has never struck me as the petty sort. If she wanted to remind people of anything, it would have been her wedding tiara. Prince William throws better shade!
https://twitter.com/KensingtonRoyal/status/1309968491785719808/photo/1
Wiki says the idea went into production in March 2019, and was filmed in Canada (Ontario) in May-June 2019. Filming finished about a month before H&M brought their begging cup to the Lion King premiere. So close, yet so far.
The film story includes a Queen Catherine, a sketchy uncle, and a pompous character whose super power is persuasion & manipulation.
She also looked extremely bloated from a long night of drinking prior.
I was just about to come here and tell everyone about the photos! The Cambridges look wonderful! Such a wholesome family!
And what did I just say about Prince William throwing great shade? There's a picture of Prince George with a gift from Sir David Attenborough -- and it's a megalodon tooth!!!
To top both Princess Eugenie's announcement and this Cambridge moment, Meghan is going to need a lot more than that tired old photo of Archie #4 meeting Archbishop Tutu.
I don’t credit princess Eugenie with being petty like Meg, but due to Tiaragate and Lady Muck’s subsequent behavior at PE’s wedding, emerald, the rocks or the color, I will always be reminded how MM tried to make it her proprietary Royal color.
Green is a tricky shade, though emerald is almost universally flattering. Even though Meg is fair for a half black girl, her complexion totes to the warmer side With her dark eyes and all those freckles. I actually preferred her in the warmer colors like salsa red and turmeric yellow. She looked good in the sky blue color. I think emerald actually looks best on a cool complexion like Genie’s or Kate’s.
Green is the color of envy when it’s the violent Joker kind of green she wore in March. The ghastly 1980s prom ensemble that she wore to the music festival is not my idea of a flattering red. They both looked like they were dressed up for a West End musical… On stage is part of the cast. Sergeant Pepper meets Rocky Horror!
As for her other forays in green: Those singular shades were, take your pick: rancid pea soup, baby diarrhea, or the vomit that flew out of Linda Blair’s mouth in the Exorcist. That’s Meg’s signature color—-Call it “brimstone”.
Putting on my snark cape, may I add that
* The sight of William’s personalized director’s chair is probably making MM go full claw around Villa Sadness. I would hate to be Harry, any small fragile decorative object, or their Netflix contact.
* The Cambridge’s honey-hued, cared-for garden bench is like the Beauty version of H&M’s videoed rough old Beast bench. Shade!
* The image with W, C, Sir David and three lively and engaged kids hanging out around the Beauty bench is happy, relaxed, What a contrast to the tense weird Beast bench scene earlier this week with Hector & Magtasha and the dog who shall not be named.
* George with his shark’s tooth gift from Sir D: is it giving him a flashback of dear Auntie M chasing him with her iPhone, video rolling...?
* So, George, Charlotte, Louis, embryonic mini Brooksbank. Where’s your sprog, H? You know, the one you announced in a stable yard, the one M mentioned by name repeatedly in her super random AGT video? Hmm? Where? (Gosh, it’s almost like showing dogs requires less paperwork and fewer flights and less cash.)
My first reaction was sincere delight at the photos. My current reaction is gleeful anticipation at the impotent, desperate flailing we will soon get out of Montecito in reaction to them. And I only feel a teensy bit guilty about that!
The megalodon tooth was enough to make my week, but I love the other shady details you've spotted!
While it may be the case that Prince William's staff set everything up without his forgettable sister-in-law in mind, the Hollywood-esque director's chair AND the bench are such timely touches! I'm positively giddy with delight.

Sir David Attenborough is already a walking legend, but Prince William's influence will certainly give his new feature film an extra boost. And that's a good thing at a time when many cinemas are still closed due to restrictions.
We'll never be able to do a side-by-side comparison of the number of people who registered to vote thanks to Meghan and the number of people who watched A Life on Our Planet thanks to Prince William, but I think it's still clear which of them won the influencer-lympics this month.
You know that cover will be brought up whenever she tries to run for anything in the future.
"...There was her narcissistic ruining of Prince Louis's Christening photo, her disrespectful slovenliness at the mosque, etc. That last "Robbing Hood" green outfit, deliberately chosen after she had been told to dress in one of the colors of the Union Jack, was another sort of assault on the eyes."
I'm happy to criticize M for things I think she's done. But I'm not convinced she deliberately violated explicitly-stated dress colors for either the 2020 Commonwealth Day service (Union Jack--red, white, or blue) or for Louis's christening (Lt blue or cream.) Here are colors royal women wore in the past:
CWD
2014
TQ- Hot Pink
Cam- Cream
(W&K did not attend)
2015
TQ- Cream with grey and black accents
Cam- Med navy with dark blue/black accents
Kate- Lt Pink
2016
TQ-- Lt "Cornflower" blue
Kate- Lt & Dk Grey patterned coat
(Charles & Cam did not attend-- In Croatia/Serbia)
2017
TQ- Yellow
Cam- Purple
(W&K did not attend-- "dad dancing"/Pippa hen party weekend)
2018
TQ- Dk. Maroon
Cam- Dark navy with white motif
Kate-Navy
Meghan- White coat, Navy or Black dress
2019
TQ-- Lt Purple
Cam-- Dk Purple
Kate- Bright red
Meghan- White coat with white dress w/green chains
Christenings
George
TQ- Cornflower blue
Cam- Cream
Kate- Cream
Carole- Navy with print side panels of lighter and darker blues
Pippa- Cream
Charlotte
TQ- Pink
Cam- Lt Blue
Kate- Cream
Carole- Tan
Pippa- Cream
I do think M chooses colors and styles to shock & to make herself stand out at royal family events. A pox on her for that! And I agree her extreme choices often make her look bad. I'm just not convinced she was told to wear R/W/B to the CWD service. For one thing, it would make more sense to me to wear the colors of the Commonwealth flag that day (royal blue & gold) vs a national flag if flag dressing. Regardless, the only year in the last 6 yrs before 2020 the women could possibly be said to mimic the Union Jack colors was 2018 and that's only if TQ's very dark maroon/wine = Union Jack red.
For Louis's July christening, to me pastels including "baby boy blue" probably would have made sense to wear if my family was into that sort of thing, but look at all the colors women wore to Archie's July christening. None of the women wore blue!
She also reminded me of the Grinch, the dress didnt fit well, as usual for her, and that scarf attachment was awful.
it’s like she purposely sought. to waste PC’s money on a hideous coutier expensive type of dress to spite the BRF and country
Poor Meglov’s dog
Aka Harry, incog
Is not sure if he’s Arthur, or Martha
She yanks on his chain
A reminder of pain
He really should lay off the grog!

From the Telegraph:
Sir David Attenborough has perfect gift for Prince George - a 23 million-year-old giant shark tooth
Sir David visited Kensington Palace for an outdoor screening of his upcoming film with the Duke of Cambridge and his family
By Hannah Furness
Part I
When visiting two future kings at home, it may be difficult to come up with a suitable gift to mark the occasion.
Fortunately Sir David Attenborough had just the thing in his pocket: the tooth of a 23 million-year-old giant shark he found on holiday.
Sir David has personally presented Prince George with the treasure, which he found in the 1960s during a family trip to Malta.
The young Prince, who like many small boys has a fascination with fossils, appeared thrilled with the gift, shown beaming in a photograph and studying it proudly.
Sir David, 94, visited Kensington Palace this week for an outdoor screening of his upcoming film with the Duke of Cambridge.
But the opportunity to see their broadcasting hero proved too much of a lure for the whole family, as the Duchess and three Cambridge children joined the party in the garden after school.
A photograph capturing the moment they met, while adhering to social distancing, shows Princess Charlotte, five, with her hands clasped to her face in apparent delight, as she stares at Sir David’s familiar face.
The Duke, holding a copy of the naturalist’s latest book, greets him like an old friend, while the Duchess laughs at her children’s reactions.
Prince Louis is dressed smartly for the occasion, and was soon absorbed in a show-and-tell of the ancient shark’s tooth.
Prince George, seven, is known to have a fascination with dinosaurs, with his mother once telling a group of children during a Natural History Museum that he "loves the T Rex because it's the noisiest and the scariest".
The visit was a long time coming for the three children, who have all watched his television programmes.
On a previous encounter with Sir David, the Duchess told him: “The children were very upset that we were coming to see you and they weren’t coming, they’re massive fans of yours."
The Duke and Sir David have been working together for some time on their shared passion for the environment, appearing on stage together at Davos, for a joint unveiling of the ship once named “Boaty McBoatface”, and at the premiere of his documentary Our Planet.
Their partnership has now extended to the Duke’s Earthshot Prize, due to be formally launched soon, with Sir David providing the voiceover for its introductory video.
On Thursday, he paid a visit to the Cambridges at their London home, for a special screening of his new film, David Attenborough: A Life On Our Planet, said to be his “most personal project to date, in which he presents some of the most defining moments of his career as a naturalist and the devastating changes he has seen”.
The Duke and Sir David were photographed watching the film on a cinema screen beneath traditional red velvet curtains, sitting in directors’ chairs on which they swapped the names on the back for their amusement.
A source said the Duke had thoroughly enjoyed the film, thinking it was "one of Sir David's best yet" and noting that its optimistic message is "very much in line" with his own views.
"It says 'we've got a chance to fix this'," said the source, of the film's approach to saving the planet. "That very much chimes with the Duke's view that we've got an opportunity to get this right."
Meeting the children, Sir David brought along the tooth of a giant shark carcharocles megalodon - or “big tooth” - which he found on a family holiday to Malta in the late 1960s embedded in soft yellow limestone from the Miocene period 23 million years ago.
Carcharocles is believed to have grown to 15 metres in length, which is about twice the length of the Great White, the largest shark alive today.
The veteran broadcaster has a long and warm relationship with the Royal Family, which has included producing the Queen's Christmas speeches for the BBC in the late 1980s and starring alongside her in a documentary about the Buckingham Palace trees in 2017.
In 1958, he gave the young Prince Charles and Princess Anne a tour of his television studio with the help of his pet cockatoo.
Sharing details of the film, a spokesman for the WWF said of the Duke and Sir David's relationship: “With a shared passion for protecting the natural world, they continue to support one another in their missions to tackle some of the biggest environmental challenges our planet faces."
David Attenborough: A Life On Our Planet is described as serving as Sir David’s “witness statement for the natural world”.
It will premiere in cinemas on Monday, September 28, before launching on Netflix a week later.
Where does poor Prince Harry fit into Meghan’s masterplan?
I fear the Duke of Sussex is out of his depth in California as his wife pursues an unknown agenda of her own
By Hugo Vickers
Part I
It is tragic to see a man who once smiled so broadly looking as miserable and out of his depth as Prince Harry now does. In a few short months, Harry has gone from being a Prince with the chance to use his position to achieve much for Britain, the Commonwealth and the military, to a boy lost.
Not long ago, he had a purpose. Clearly much loved by his grandmother and respected by the public, he seemed more sure of himself, more comfortable in his own skin than ever before. He looked set to use his considerable platform for something useful. Now, in his new life, far away from his family and everything he knows, he has lost his way. Rather than being a crucial part of the younger generation of Windsors, providing a boost in troubled times as his brother’s family has, now we hear from Harry when he appears on ill-conceived political videos alongside his Californian wife.
He is out of his depth, behaves like a ventriloquist’s dummy and can barely hide his discomfort. You can’t help but feel sorry for the poor man. His recent political statements have inspired suggestions that he renounce his titles and become a private citizen.
The Sussexes removed themselves from public life in March, and despite the suggestion that the glare of the royal spotlight had been all too much, it hasn’t taken long for the couple to do what no member of the Royal family ever should – that is to allow themselves to be bought, and to meddle in politics. Of course, this is merely how it looks on this side of the Atlantic. I imagine that the Sussexes may consider themselves on a bit of a roll at the moment. There is the house north of Malibu bought for a rumoured $14.5 million (£11.4 million). The money spent on doing up Frogmore Cottage (£2.4 million) has been paid back. They have positioned themselves as key celebrity figures in the Democratic Party’s campaign for the White House. And then there is the sizeable Netflix deal.
What precisely they plan to do with that deal remains to be seen, but the fact is that a major television company has bought a member of the Royal family, and that cannot be understated. When companies give you a lot of money (it’s said the deal should bring them in the region of $100 million) they expect a lot in return. Will Harry and Meghan get what they want? Will Netflix? I suspect that she might, but Harry is like a trapped victim in all this. He wears the metaphorical orange suit of the hostage.
Members of the Royal family are at their best when they support the Queen, rather than setting themselves up in competition. Those who do their duty, as the Queen has done, invariably emerge happier than those who pursue the path of perceived happiness.
Think of the Duke of Windsor. Her Majesty had given her grandson the entire Commonwealth to explore. He is well-loved in the Commonwealth and the Overseas Territories and was doing great things in communities all over the world. Aside from his duties, his own father has proven through his activism that it is perfectly possible to be a member of the Royal family and use your platform to stand for something and effect change.
But Harry and Meghan wanted something different. The gilded life with all its expectations and restrictions was, supposedly, not for them and so a break clause was granted, with the Queen’s support and blessing.
I wonder now if freedom has been a greater burden than Harry anticipated it might be. Why he has chosen to live like a celebrity figure in LA is beyond all of us who watched him grow into a fine leader and responsible young man. He has fallen from Captain General of the Royal Marines to First Husband to his ambitious wife. If November’s US presidential election sees the Democrats get in, Meghan may be able to build herself an even stronger political profile. She has retained her American citizenship and so it is entirely open for her to go into politics.
A source told Vanity Fair this week: “I think if Meghan and Harry ever gave up their titles she would seriously consider running for president.” If they can elect Trump…
Watching Harry sitting next to her in the election video the couple released this week was wince-making. The Royal family must be above party politics, even more so in a country that is not their own. He has no business talking to the American people about elections, in which he has never voted, as surely he realises.
For a while the Sussexes were a golden, rather modern couple. At the Commonwealth Day service in March 2018, they were laughing, their eyes flashed about, they were completely in tune together. A year later at the same service, I remember thinking he looked like a man who had bitten off more than he could cope with.
Of course he should cut his losses and come home, before it is too late. The tide is somewhat turning against him, but there is still time.
If Harry got back on track
Decided to come home, come back
I doubt they could hide his bad flaws
The whole worlds now mocking
His public defrocking
Woke joke bloke, would still lack the mores
The whole world can see how unhappy you are . What is more, we can see why. The cause is sitting beside you on that bench and you’ll never be able to think straight if you stay with her.
I know what it’s like to be embarrassed by one’s mistakes, the fear of admitting them, but it’s the only way. You can’t protect her. Neither can you save her from her demons. She can only save herself and she shows no sign of doing that.
She’s been using you from the word `Go!’ – she’s got as far as she can with you and now you are an encumbrance. She wanted your title to help her get where to she is now but it’ll hamper her political ambition. It’s already going down very badly with the US public who staunchly believe in the Constitutional Republic, not a monarchy. What was that about a `Pinko Prince’?
You’ll need to clear all the rubbish she’s fed you, both metaphorically and literally, from your brain and body - the best place to do that is back home, with those who still loves you unconditionally. You’ll then have to work bloody hard to earn the respect of the citizens of the UK once more.
Do it, before it’s too late. For yourself, at least.
Respect is, for most us, something we have to earn, a fact of life that appears to have passed your wife by.
Mind you, it looks as if you’re about to be dumped. Better brace yourself, it’ll hurt like Hell, what with the expected humiliation in the Law Courts and that she won’t pull any punches in the inevitable divorce.
Do you understand, Harry?...... Harry?....... Are you there, Harry.. ….?

Watch it, Meghan. Anti-wokery is on the march.
I completely agree with your last sentiment: it's not about the billionaire she will land, as it is about the billionaire SHE BELIEVES she can land
then again, she also believes she's a Hollywood actress, a philanthropist, a victim, a fashion designer, a trendsetter, a chef, a writer, an orator, beloved, admired, adulated, and the future president of the United States

Do Meghan Markle and Prince Harry actually WANT to be stripped of their titles?
By Sarah Vine for the Daily Mail23:18, 26 Sep 2020 , updated 23:47, 26 Sep 2020
Donald Trump is not my favourite person. But I couldn’t help feeling a certain grudging admiration for the old dunderhead last week.
Asked what he thought of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex’s decision to interfere in the US presidential election, he just gave a wry smile and said: ‘I wish a lot of luck to Harry… because he’s gonna need it.’
Mr Trump doesn’t always have a great way with words but even his sternest critic would have to concede that, on this occasion, he displayed an admirable flash of wit.
Seriously, though, if Harry and Meghan hoped to boost Grandpa Biden’s poll ratings, they may well have just shot themselves in the Manolos
A member of the British Royal Family, a scion of Empire, telling Americans how to vote in their own elections? Good luck with that, Harry.
Because, of course, the Yanks famously love being bossed around by pampered English princes. Look how well it turned out for George III.
Seriously, though, if Harry and Meghan hoped to boost Grandpa Biden’s poll ratings, they may well have just shot themselves in the Manolos.
If there’s one thing guaranteed to get your average, red-blooded Republican off straight to the polling booth, it’s the sight of a couple of entitled celebrities accusing them of being ignorant hate-mongers – from the comfort of an £11million mansion. At home, too, this intervention marks a turning point in the increasingly toxic soap opera of Harry and Meghan.
Because what the Prince has just done – break the cardinal rule of British Royalty, that is to say openly intervene in not just an election, but a foreign election – takes the growing rift between him and the Palace, to borrow a term from the American military, to DEFCON 3.
It would appear to be – and I am increasingly certain of this – a deliberate act of aggression designed to leave the Queen with no choice but to strip the pair of their Royal titles.
Such an act would play perfectly to their imagined narrative of always being the victims.
Asked what he thought of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex’s decision to interfere in the US presidential election, Trump just gave a wry smile and said: ‘I wish a lot of luck to Harry… because he’s gonna need it’
The speed with which Harry has gone from being the most relatable member of the Royal Family to someone who appears intent on not only rejecting everything the institution stands for but doing his utmost to undermine it, is astonishing. It had already become clear, even before he met Meghan, that the Prince was struggling to find his feet as a Royal. He harboured a lot of pent-up resentment, not only towards the constraints of the institution itself, but also towards his family for the way his mother had been treated.I don’t think it was any coincidence that he chose as his bride a woman who was always going to struggle with the restrictions of monarchy.
He wanted out, whether he realised it fully or not, and Meghan was his ticket. Had he married some honking Camilla, content to push a pram around Windsor while wearing a pair of wellies and a Barbour, he would have been for ever trapped in the role of spare, relegated to a life in his brother’s shadow, always the also-ran, like his Uncle Andrew.
Meghan was never going to put up with that kind of life. That was abundantly clear right from the start to anyone with eyes in their head. This way, he gets to ‘find freedom’ and sock it to the institution which, it is increasingly apparent, he despises.
No more dreary wet weekends pressing the flesh with commoners for Harry: it’s all Netflix and chia seeds now.
And the fact that, by his actions, he is boxing his family – and with it his long-suffering granny – into a corner is just the cherry on the cake.
So, yes, Mr Trump is right to wish Harry luck. After all, it’s a huge gamble he’s taking.
I just hope the poor deluded boy knows what he’s letting himself in for.
I'm not surprised she was `given the side eye' in SA when she she described herself as `a woman of colour' when trying to express how she identified with black people, bearing in mind the bad old days of racial terminology.
She’s a woman of no substance
A creature of greed
She cares for no-one, but how she’s perceived
How she got to the Royals is anyones guess
Wherever she goes, she leaves one helluva mess
She messed up in the UK
Canada ooh
Now she’s in the US
She’ll f..k with you too!
The UK Daily Express is often regarded by many as a 'comic' newspaper
Today it is publishing these headlines on behalf of the Republican movement.
The Daily Express is also reportedly an outlet/mouthpiece for MM & the Harkles PR?
These headlines sound like retaliation from the Harkles who may well fear loosing their titles maybe
'Prince William and Prince Charles warned they are unfit to replace Queen Elizabeth II'
'Prince George title: Why George may never receive the Prince of Wales title'
'Kate and Prince William told to strip their children of 'meaningless' Royal Family'
This reads like more petty retaliation from MM /Harkles ?
Royal travel:
Prince Louis hasn't hit huge royal milestone yet -
but baby Archie has
PRINCE LOUIS is the youngest of Kate Middleton and Prince William's three children, and there is a huge royal milestone the tot has yet to reach. Meghan Markle and Prince Harry's son Archie has done it, despite being a year younger than his cousin.

Even so, when I was at school, I was once screamed at by a classmate telling me I clearly wanted a 3rd World War and shouldn't believe what I read in the DE. ( I was asked my opinion on our attempts to join the EEC, as it was then, and, knowing I was on dangerous ground, gave a brief & very mild answer to the effect that we'd historically valued our independence from the Continent. Talk about lighting blue touch-paper.)
The hysteria didn't say much for her argument - I shrugged and went on with what I was doing, rather than hinting that the effects of the post-war Franco-German steel arrangement were good enough for me. Even then, the Left regarded it as the Daily Mail of the time (The Manchester Grauniad , as it was then, hadn't penetrated that far south as to be distributed on the day of publication - dedicated readers were prepared to read the news 24hrs old.
Now, oh my goodness, the Express has gone right down the drain. No longer is for it traditional stability. The MG/G had a spell of moving more to the Centre in the mid 70s but has since swung back again.
Prince Charles doles out more than $7 million on sons in the past year.

@Girl with the hat
There was a response on Twitter to the picture
'Now if we can just have her alone in front of the Taj Mahal . Will know it's over'
was Meghan trying to copy an iconic photo of Charles and Diana on a garden bench?
Actually I was thinking it was more the shot of her in front of the Taj Mahal.
Sylvia - we think alike. Thanks for the confirmation on that.
I've read that when Catherine was at Marlborough College (an upper class English public school ie independent and expensive!) her family were ridiculed for turning up with all new and shiny stuff for `open-day picnics' eg clean, fluffy car rugs, as opposed to the worn, moth-eaten ones covered in dog-hairs that the Uppers and Old Money prefer.
Having new stuff is a give-away that one has had to buy it, rather than inherit it, ie one is nouveau riche. A chap can't get be more damned than being described as a `man who had to buy his own house/furniture/ silver'.
The view is applied to clothes as well -
A college chum who'd been at a female equivalent to Marlborough, explained to me why she still wore a cardigan with darned elbows - apparently it had been her school cardi and it was `so warm - it's cashmere', she said.
I am sufficiently pretentious as to have 2 such teak benches in my garden! And I'm only first generation middle-Middle, from lower Middle, previously working class. Some were what Dickens described as `the lowest of the low' in Oliver Twist!
Jilly Cooper's `Class' is still in print, if anybody wants to explore the topic further. Real Aristos (pre-1715, eg the Spencers, and those who arrived in 1066) look down on the Royals -regard them as Middle Class arrivistes, apparently.
The 64-year-old, who is a former yoga instructor, is now the Chief Executive Officer for the company Loving Kindness, based in Beverly Hills.
According to official documents, Meghan's mother has also been appointed as Chief Financial Officer and Company Secretary as well as CEO.
Earlier this year, Doria, who quit her post as a social worker at a mental health clinic after her daughter married into the royal family in 2018, was teaching how to make jewellery at a community college in Los Angeles.
Harry's got the skids under him - when will she give him the shove?

Megs knows this photo so her sugars will like it. Hapless is unaware of the photo and other matters. In the cute Charles-Diana photo there is communication between them. In the Megs-Hapless photo they are both directing at an audience to annoy and hector them.
Here is a twitter comment on the photo:
"Everything Smug does is copycat. She doesn’t have an original idea in that skanky head!"
As far as X-felons being involved in senior care - In many states, a felony can be reduced to a misdemeanor after (varies) 10 years. And remember, she is in charge, not a nurse handling patients.
I would think the financial books of this facility better be watched closely. There is something very fishy about this whole thing suddenly popping up.
She seems to have come into quite a lot collateral since2017/8 - I wonder...?
Yes, keep an eye on the finances - and on the physical side - buildings, advertising, number of residents, care provided...
Sounds like a nice little earner, has it been based on hiding ill-gotten gains???
Pure speculation, of course.

How about this was set up for Dorito by her friend Oprah. Good way to launder money? Perhaps set up by Sunshine Sachs with some British Duchy money that just happened to be laying around. I will be shocked if the skilless Dorito is getting less than 100-125 thousand dollars per year.
I'm not sure now?
Eat your hearts out, Harkles. You could have had the same treatment if you had accepted your place in the hierarchy.

Meghan Markle supposed Presidential ambition
Part 1
Yesterday I’m reading that she’s going to run for President. Put that rumour to rest. Not going to happen. I used to date someone in a former candidate’s circle. Meghan has no discipline, no polish, no clout, and there is no way a bunch of world leaders will allow her to sit with them given her past. The oil rich Saudis would never shake her hand and probably already have her phones tapped. Those people do not play. The Chinese are worse. They are known to intervene in relationships of people worth over a certain amount if they feel the person is too difficult to control. I used to go out with the former vice president of a very large bank. I have first hand knowledge of how their operatives work. It’s not like you see on television with people kidnapping you and torturing you, they kill you with love and kindness. The POTUS of now already has clout. He is meeting up with old friends when he goes to heads of government summit. That position has a special vetting system that has nothing to do with the election.
BUDGET
This part is not meany to shock but to enlighten. The PR budget floor Meghan is not expensive. There is a price sheet floating around with the names of all the major outlets at the price for a press release. Discount if you write it yourself, and photos cost more. I have seen it. I’ve even done one for a product that I’m promoting. It got featured in a news publication that is read widely in north Africa. Whenever the global pricelist gets updated, I am sent a copy and asked if I need anything done. I was shocked at how cheap it is. The maximum price is $450 and this is a news site that used to be a popular search engine. They feature Smegs every single day.
Imagine being a Kylie Jenner and having all of that money and only paying a pittance for an article. The only reason you and I don’t do it is that we don’t have anything to advertise. Now do you you understand why they’re always in the news?
Next up is newspaper articles. I have a press contact who sent me a list of news publications all elite at which he has contacts. He accepts $100 per article. Guaranteed to get published. He writes it and sends it off to friends. Basically you’re giving the newspaper content which they need but you pay the go between.
I am sure that no one here is surprised by what I’m saying. But you didn’t know how much it cost until now.
I’m not done. There are magazines that will let you be on the cover for a nominal fee. You do a session with a professional photographer of your choice then they photoshop you on it. Then your interview in the magazine is written by you or by a professional. Online version is guaranteed viewership in the tens of thousands minimum, highly ranked on search engines, with print versions published later. Shipping costs are added on. Pricing varies of course. But today, I saw one magazine cover feature going for as low as $200. I sent a friend’s recent selfie to the editor and tossed in a 1000 word essay about him. It’s going to be a surprise. Imagine his surprise when he sees himself on the cover of a magazine to read an article of an interview that I wrote. Based on our conversations.

SEO
Then you give an SEO expert a tiny sum to send traffic to the news articles created for you, along with your customised keywords to get them trending. I have done this for a product I am promoting and recently saw an ad (that I did not pay for) for it pop up in my Yahoo account which is not linked to my real identity or the product. I was asked to rate the ad.
In other words, let me start this clearly. People don’t care about Smeg but she can pay to drive millions of visits to the articles. Please do not believe for one second that any of the trending stuff you see online is real. She is buying articles, promoting them herself, and pretending that everyone lurrrvs her.
Discovering public relations articles for pay was an eye-opening experience for me. I was extremely puzzled as to why she was always in the news even though people dislike her so much. Why was she always in the Daily Mail even though people would just post a ton of negative comments? And now I realise it’s really about the SEO, having the press contacts and driving up views and traffic to keep trending.
I’ve never seen someone like this in my life. She is completely dissatisfied with everything she’s been given. She is extremely greedy, but she is living in a fantasy bubble. A universe in which she is the most important person. Assume that anything positive written about her is completely false. Those PR companies do not care if what she is saying is true. They only care if she pays them

1. It would require a lot of expertise and different kinds of expertise to really provide all the services offered.
2. If you can afford to pay for the services of this company, you can afford to pay for a facility that provides all those services anyway.
3. Legal services for making various kind of wills is also offered as a special section on its own.
4. It all comes across as throw a lot of mud at the wall in typical hollow word salad Meghan speak.
5. Site design is by Create + Serve but a dead end link is provided. In addition, there is a bizarre statement given in the section 'privacy policy'.
I did not keep a copy of the link but did post it a few threads back - the link to the actual registration of the company. It looks suspiciously like some kind of dummy company, set up for nefarious purposes. However, Doria's signature is on the registration document.
Maybe Meghan is insisting that her mother adds to the pot of gold and has a great idea of how she can earn lots of money and goes ahead full steam setting something up. I think it is more likely that the Harkles are digging themselves a deeper and deeper hole (remember the confusing stuff I summarised from Travelyst, MWX Trading and so on?) ... it is all very messy.
Harry ‘violated’ palace deal with plea to American voters: The prince’s swipe at Donald Trump may have sunk his ‘Megxit’ arrangement and any return to military roles
Roya Nikkhah and Tim Shipman
Sunday September 27 2020, 12.01am BST, The Sunday Times
Part 1.
The controversial intervention by the Duke and Duchess of Sussex in the US election was a “violation” of their “Megxit” deal with the Queen and could further jeopardise their links to the monarchy, according to senior royal aides.
Courtiers held talks last week to discuss how the royal household could distance itself further from Harry and Meghan after the couple called on voters in America to “reject hate speech, misinformation and online negativity” in “the most important election of our lifetime” — comments widely interpreted as a swipe at President Donald Trump.
Members of the royal family are supposed to be politically neutral. Under the Sandringham accord — hammered out in January before they resigned as working royals in March and moved to America — the Sussexes pledged that “everything they do will uphold the values of Her Majesty”.
However, a royal aide said their comments last week had broken that promise: “The [royal] family are all wringing their hands, thinking: where is this going and does this abide by the deal to uphold the values of the Queen? The feeling is it’s a violation of the agreement.”
Prince Harry’s hopes of resuming his links with the Royal Marines and other military posts are now under threat, according to those familiar with the discussions in the royal household. The Sussexes’ arrangement will be reviewed after a year by the Queen, the Prince of Wales and the Duke of Cambridge.
As part of the deal, Harry stepped down from his military roles, including as captain general of the Royal Marines. Officials involved in the “Sandringham summit”, where the deal was struck, say that the Queen agreed to keep the positions open during the review period so that he could return, if it was deemed appropriate.
The door was left open,” said one aide. “There were some things that Harry hoped he could opt back into. He dearly wants to hang on to the Royal Marines and the military appointments. That will be harder now.”
This will be a blow to Harry, who publicly stated after the deal had been signed that one of his priorities “was to continue serving the Queen, the Commonwealth and my military associations”.
It is thought that the roles of Harry and Meghan as president and vice-president of the Queen’s Commonwealth Trust will also now come under review.
In last week’s conversations, courtiers even discussed whether the couple could be stripped of their HRH titles, which they retain but are not allowed to use.
A source close to the household said: “The view at the moment is that you can’t do that to Harry. Even Edward VIII kept his HRH when he abdicated … [but] there is a strong view that the family really does need to put more distance between them and Harry and Meghan.”
In a video message recorded at their Californian home for a Time magazine broadcast, the Sussexes issued a rallying cry to American voters. Harry said: “This election, I’m not going to be able to vote in the US. As we approach this November, it’s vital that we reject hate speech, misinformation and online negativity.”
Meghan added: “Every four years we’re told: ‘This is the most important election of our lifetime.’ But this one is.”
Trump said: “I’m not a fan of hers and I would say this … I wish a lot of luck to Harry, because he’s going to need it.”
Meghan has previously called Trump “divisive” and “misogynistic”.
The Queen is the only member of the royal family not permitted to vote; others refrain by convention. Meghan, an American citizen, has confirmed that she will vote in the presidential election.
Buckingham Palace sought to distance itself from Harry’s remarks, saying they were made “in a personal capacity”. But royal sources said the comments had embarrassed the monarch. “If Trump is re-elected and makes another visit here, what is the Queen supposed to say when her grandson and his wife have effectively campaigned against him?” said a source.
“They know the political arena is meant to be absolutely off limits to members of the royal family.”
Another well-placed source said: “Harry has wandered into a minefield and is in danger of dragging the royal family into it.” One courtier told a close friend: “This is only going in one direction now — permanent exile.” Gyles Brandreth, a friend of the Duke of Edinburgh, said: “This story plays into a growing disaffection with Harry and Meghan.”
A spokesman for the Sussexes said: “The duke’s message is not in reference to any specific political party or candidate, but is instead a call for decency in how we engage with each other.”
Vernon Bogdanor, professor of government at King’s College London and author of The Monarchy and the Constitution, also defended them: “The Duke and Duchess of Sussex … are not required to speak and act on the advice of ministers. Their only constraint is that they must not do or say anything that could embarrass the sovereign. They must not make any party political or partisan comments.
“The injunction to vote is not a partisan comment but an encouragement to civic participation. In my view the comments of the duke and duchess do not raise any constitutional issue.”
Buckingham Palace did not comment.
Apparently, a friend of Prince Philip's, Gyles Brandreth, commenting on the record to the Times is a pretty significant sign BP is NOT pleased.
The worrying thing is that Doria is 'Chief Financial Officer' - is she just a figurehead? Is there money laundering involved? Sounds a bit shady, especially with the points you raised.
She wouldn't already have a war chest for the Presidential campaign, would she?
It wouldn't have come substantially from the UK by any chance, would it?
Those ludicrously expensive clothes that were worn once - if they weren't freebies- were they returned - for a refund payable to her, rather than Charles or whoever else paid? (Remember that label waving at us from just below the hemline? The coat pleats and pockets that were still tacked up?)
We've been assuming that she's been paying through the nose for publicity when this may not be the case.
And if she's paying peanuts for PR, all that cash she's conned out of HM, Charles and everyone else, not forgetting Disney and so on, may be squirrelled away somewhere unseen, all ready to launch her on a trajectory that ends, she hopes, at the White House.
We foresee her flight ending in crash-and-burn, but she can't begin to imagine it.
She strikes me as someone who has never done a full SWOT analysis in her life. She thinks she has the Strength to exploit the Opportunities that she has engineered but cannot see her Weaknesses or the Threats that lie in wait, such as the good citizens of the US seeing through her, just as we have done.
I always view announcements of pricey deals between media companies & 'talent' with skepticism. A huge $$$ amount announced suits both the company & the 'talent' involved. It makes the companies look like deep-pocketed power players, & the 'talent' looks as though he, she, or it is in demand. A win-win for both parties. Who's going to know the difference?
Thanks for posting the video- I had not seen it.
Ran across another of her yesterday - Reitman ad -
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8MgADRovxuU&feature=emb_title&ab_channel=ReitmansTV
Re MM presidential war chest. WBBM, you are thinking like a person who plans ahead, logically, with foresight and long term goals. Remember, this is MM--who can barely get properly dressed for a video shout out.
From a webite, I googled: "To give you a rough idea, in 2016 Hillary Clinton raised $US585,699,061 (with $US206,122,160 in outside money), Donald Trump $US350,668,436 (with $US103,951,568 in outside money)."
I am sure, as you have stated, that she has scammed as much money from her 'closet' and the RF as possible. And, now it sounds like she is using some flimsy company in DE as her personal bank for all types of funding. I think her priorities will continue to be sloppy PR and ridiculous court cases.
I'd certainly love to see that!
It wouldn't have come substantially from the UK by any chance, would it?

, WBBM, that would indeed be one hell of a war chest, but they would be better served living a quiet life in the flyover parts of the country on their ill-gotten gains rather than risk it on a presidential campaign that she doesn't have enough money for. Hillary Clinton spent over $600 million on her campaign; Bloomberg has spent over $100 million on anti-Trump ads this year.
I am firmly in the “she has backers” lane, though I do think they will soon shake her off as a bad pick. Where her mother fits into the grift is anyone’s guess, but if you look into the backstory of her mother’s house, there is a lot to unpack worthy of a good mystery writer. And that makes me think anything is possible. After this past week, scrutiny may have been ramped up behind the scenes, so perhaps we will learn more one day about this growing ball of yarn. From the actual basic level of the Netflix seed money (if I wrote a mystery novel, that would be the ideal murky cover for secret unreported cash flow), to Jessica pawning worn gowns while Charles writes checks. Somehow, think Camilla knows the score via sources, and is holding a truth grenade for the one year review. (My bucket list includes cocktail hour with Camilla and Lady C.)
NeutralObserver, thank you so much for posting that Times article. Wow.
You know what annoys the boots off me? More and more and more? Reading the lacy vomit-inducing references in article after article about what that spoiled useless jealous conniving havoc-creating unshowered little weasel with the invisible baby and secret dog lunatic spouse stuffed in an oligarch’s mansion “hopes” for or “dearly” wants re returning, “dearly misses” military honors or “can’t believe” what have you.
Hope?! Dearly!? Misses? Step off it, sir. Save those words for people hoping to see their aged relatives, or save their jobs, or find jobs or see the end of this life-bending pandemic. Dearly? Save that for grandmas “missing” their family, those who have buried a loved one, people trying to help others survive. People who can’t believe a loved one is gone, or life is condensed to being locked up and fearful, behind masks.
Sitting on your pampered traitor arse In sunny wine soaked Montecito with an insatiably greedy goon of a spouse, and jangling your begging cups angrily every five minutes after repeatedly pissing on your countrymen, brother and his marriage and family, the Queen and your father, your military brethren and Invictus and the Deal tributes.....well. How dare his self-created immolation be polished by “aides” with those simple words that actually mean something to people?
We can only hope that if they (BP) are now actually dropping those words, not H&M “sources”, it is being done to disgust the public enough to make the needed future title-stripping something worth celebrating in the streets.
Thank you lots for the article.
It made me laugh tho. If Harry thought about the Royal Marines and the QT he would not have behaved the way he did. In his mind he is now opposition to the royal family and most importantly, to William. In his eyes he is in "I'll show you all" mood.
All these "wringing their hands" and mild "threats" of a review after one year are so toothless. Royals need to act tough now.
I was going to suggest that she might rely on person(s) unknown, with a better grasp of handling dodgy money, lurking in the background. Doris &/or Markus perhaps? Or a cadre drawn from the Soho House crowd?
D&M looked like fellow conspirators in that early piece by Harry Markle -`Is Markus threatening Harry?' and Harry Markle, a lawyer, spoke in terms of almost smelling criminal collusion and conspiracy to commit a felony, foreseeing a rather crowded dock at the Old Bailey.
My husband has just suggested that if/when her court cases fail, she could always try to get on Judge Rinder's show.
@Wild Boar-Battle-Maid
I'd certainly love to see that��
Remember the old uk tv programme 'This is your life'? An uncensored version !I'm unsure if there was an American tv programme of the same type?
Could you imagine the presenter of the programme
surprising Meghan with a book on her life .People from her past coming forward appearing on the programme sharing their experiences with snippets of gossip & unknown details with clips from her past she would be torn between the narcs need for attention & terror of being found out. It would be a cheesefest no doubt all hypothetical
Watched a dvd of a BBC programme called
'Upstart Crow' Comic version of the life of Shakespere
The Shakespeare character
called someone
Delusionally ambitious &
Pathologically untalented !
A good description of MM maybe?
Perhaps two versions of `This is You Life'? The `kind' one you suggest, with subtle hints that all is not quite as it seems, which gets her sweating.
Then going for the kill in a truthful, no holds barred, one for after the watershed, perhaps a daring Channel 4 expose. It'd verge on porn is what we think is anywhere near the truth.
Which leads to - what about her as a guest on `What's My Line?'. Less said the better about possible miming.

That's a name I haven't heard before, but I'm sure Harry has, and it's a signal to him that this comes from the top.
Given that he's reportedly changed his phone number, this may be the most direct way for his grandparents to communicate with him.
I see that Brandreth is the author of "Philip and Elizabeth: Portrait of a Marriage" published in 2004.
Thanks for the clip from the Skippy blog, which is generally as credible as the people who send it information (either quite credible or not at all.)
This caught my eye:

This is clearly a reference to Yahoo News, which does do quite a bit of Meghan coverage.
That said, covering those presidential election costs will be unfortunately easy-peasy, now that I have peruses Crumpet’s numbers!
All M has to do, allowing for inflation, is sell an $8 plaster imprint of Archie’s little foot (or $16 for both feet) to each of her 100,000,000 loyal sugars. Add $132 for p&h — shipping and handling is pricy of course, H and D need their hourly.
(Fund-raising scheme production tip to M: babies don’t have dewclaws.)
Have a look at the website. No links. No company address or telephone number. No names of anyone.
Entertainment. Really? Drafting and notarizing a will for someone is entertainment? (Including a living will.) Assessing a person's medical needs is entertainment? And so on.
The website designed and set up by a company that does not exist?
Have a look at the website and then the registration documents for the company.
A reporter that actually did research would go to the address given on the registration documents and find out if the offices actually exist and who is occupying them.
It is all very shady. The first breadcrumb was the month they got married (proof that something very shady/underhand was going on). I need to do more research to get the details of that.
I wonder if Harry (and his family) fully realises the full extent of the mess he is in.

Thank you for the Reitman ad I've not seen that one either
Has Doris she set it up or simply bought it as a going concern?
The registered address looks like an office block.

@WBBM & lizzie.
I’ve read that Meghan already has at least one other Delaware corporation that she has had for several years. Setting up a company in Beverly Hills as a Delaware corporation where the inner workings of the company can be hidden and making Doria the CEO and CFO sounds fishy.
I know Doria allegedly has a Masters in social work, but that doesn’t necessarily qualify her to run a business and navigate through the myriad of healthcare laws and regulations plus deal with health insurance providers. This could be a way to set Doria up to feed at the State and Federal government troughs of Medicare from the federal government and Medi-Cal, which offers low-cost or free health coverage to eligible California residents with limited income by talking people into services that are less than helpful.
I also wonder if this is some sort of shell corporation for Harry and Meghan to use to launder money.
Also, just where is the seed money to get this company off the ground coming from? Is it coming from money from Charles meant to support Harry and Meghan that is being siphoned off to Doria? It it funding or another UK source? If this is such a great idea, why didn’t Doria launch this venture by herself years ago, before Meghan successfully targeted Harry?
This could prove incredibly damaging to HMTQ and the monarchy.
Also, before I left I read of Charade losing family member and wanted to offer my condolences, albeit late but my heart goes out to you and family.
Thanks again all! goodnight :)
She should have Boris push it through Parliament. Then, the offensive pair will blame the people, but they will have to lump in the American public with the Brits because both countries feel the same way about them. How will Meghan ever become President if she insults the American people?
After listening to Lady Colin Campbell's latest video offering, I was struck by her comments of very powerful, very dark people lending support to Meghan and that their motive in doing so was to acquire even more power. It sounded ominous when Lady C said it. I wonder to whom she was referring - Oprah? some other power brokers we aren't familiar with?
@Sylvia - I cannot find these comments at Skippy's Tumblr blog
@Girl with the hat
Are you referring to the comments about the 2 side by side bench photos?
If so these comments were on the twitter site I used your link to the twitter site picture of the side by side benches
I then scrolled down to the comments on this site
That is where I found the comment with the reference to Taj Mahal bench .

The registered address looks like an office block.
Yes, it does. It is an office block and it says at the top 'Morgan Stanley'. There doesn't seem to be other offices in that block. I'm not sure what we can infer from this.
There was an estate agent in our town who'd set up as if he was another Hamptons or Knight Frank (dealing in v. superior properties). He boasted of an office in Mayfair.
Suspicious as ever, I checked it out - had a look t it on Google earth, discovered the name over the door, then googled that name. Yes, an office that received mail and fielded phone calls for many other out-of-town concerns trying to look grander than they were.
The business here didn't last long.
Mention was made of `sensational sex' - could he be a genuine sex addict?
That is, whatever it is she does to/for him actually affects the `addiction centre' in the brain?
I believe I mentioned some of the relatively recent research in which suspected `addicts' were put into MRI scanners and given porn mags. Sure enough, neurons `lit up' in the area that had previously been implicated in other, recognised, addictions, be it to alcohol, nicotine or drugs. That would make it difficult to kick the Meghan habit.
(Ages back, I postulated whether narcissistic rages did the same, insofar as the narcs I've known gave the impression of `getting off' on raging.)

Blind Item #4
Judging by the creation date of a website, it looks like the alliterate one decided on her election bid back in 2018. May 23, 2018 to be exact.
This sounds very like our `Would I lie To You?' where each panel member reads out an unlikely story, only one of which is true.
IIRC, in one round there's a guest, known to one panellist, but each panellist has to read a screed about their supposed/real connection. They someone has to to work out who is telling the truth. I recall when they had someone who was a life model (nude of course) for one panellist's life class. Imagine Megsy on the panel and and someone from her yachting days appears & she has to read out about how they knew each other... allegedly.
Copied from a poster on Skippy tumbler.
Meghan supposed presidential
ambition
Yes, it could be an accommodation address but Morgan Stanley now an investment bank. The building looks like it's just them. Nothing is clear with that family.
Another CDAN - everyone is sure going on about her and possibly running for office. I personally think it's a joke. There's no way she'd ever get elected and then she does not have the staying power for anything in her life. Hit & Miss is the story of her life.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
I agree 100%. Her political ambitions are indisputable proof to me that she is pathologically delusional. She probably looks at Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and thinks to herself, “If a Boston University grad who worked as a bartender can be elected to Congress, then I’m a shoe-in for the Senate/President/fill-in-the-blank. But even the most superficial vetting by the press would expose Markle for what she is: a shallow, unprincipled, narcissistic opportunist-cum-grifter with a propensity for plagiarism. She’d be eaten alive. Which would at least be entertaining to watch, I admit.
"I know Doria allegedly has a Masters in social work, but that doesn’t necessarily qualify her to run a business and navigate through the myriad of healthcare laws and regulations plus deal with health insurance providers. This could be a way to set Doria up to feed at the State and Federal government troughs of Medicare from the federal government and Medi-Cal, which offers low-cost or free health coverage to eligible California residents with limited income by talking people into services that are less than helpful."
Could be that's the eventual goal. But right now, the business website (such as it is) says "LKSCM is a private pay service provider." So if that's true, no third-party payers of any kind. (And I know Medicare doesn't really pay for "aging" services like caretaking or daily task management.)
And as @Sandie wrote, "It would require a lot of expertise and different kinds of expertise to really provide all the services offered."
No kidding. Legal affairs, medication management, hospice, evaluation of housing safety, 24 hr medical emergency response, chauffeuring to medical appts, funeral planning....
I do think we can safely assume Doria has a master's degree in SWK. I know it's California but she did register at the entry masters-level in SWK on the state's professional licensure board site in 2015. Those boards usually don't fool around with phony credentials.
No offense to any social workers out there, but more than doing actual counseling, SWK does often involve finding entities to do XYZ services for a client. But social workers who do that are often working for the government or for a hospital, nursing home or clinic. So they have some liability protection provided by their employer. If it really does do what it says (vs money laundering), this business sounds like a lawsuit waiting to happen but not in M's preferred direction. And it sounds like as realistic an idea as H&M's fleeting claim they would be a font of knowledge about COVID while hiding out in a Canadian mansion.
Given that he's reportedly changed his phone number, this may be the most direct way for his grandparents to communicate with him.

Harry changed his phone number so that his family couldn’t call him?

you can copy & paste in a browser to watch it. This is from 2015. She is just so frigging special !!! So perfect & poised..............(ugh - i'm a lousy liar).
Good grief! I've just watched the video, nothing natural about her, she just keeps posing all the time, it's cringe making. That said, she looked a lot better then and dressed better (maybe she was 'styled' for the video).
Pity poor oppressed Prince Harry
The Duke of Sussex's latest political intervention reveals a man caught up in the social justice religion

Re Megalo running for office: MM as POTUS is just unthinkable. Could you imagine her with the finger on the nuclear button?
Comment from the DM story Doria’s new “business.”
Jezebellum, Belfast, United Kingdom, 2 hours ago
Oh come on. It's just another way to move the money around. It's registered in Delaware - geddit? There are no other managers and no employees. It was first registered in October 2019 - around the time of the South Africa tour - and a 'branch' was registered in California in January 2020 - around the time the Sussexes decided to 'step back' as senior royals and MM's company Frim Fram Inc was also moved to Delaware. The guy who set it all up, Richard Genow, is MM's Hollywood 'power' lawyer. The October 2019 date should be persuasive to anyone who doubts the whole shebacle at the end of last year was not a set-
Some more thoughts of mine about this situation...
After listening to Lady Colin Campbell's latest video offering, I was struck by her comments of very powerful, very dark people lending support to Meghan and that their motive in doing so was to acquire even more power. It sounded ominous when Lady C said it. I wonder to whom she was referring - Oprah? some other power brokers we aren't familiar with?
Aaaaaargh! I haven't seen the video yet. If she was referring to dark people lending support to acquire more power, I would *think* it was referring to people in the UK? The UK is really the only place that they are negatively affecting; most people here do not know or care about the duplicitous duo.
re your comment "can you image her hand on the nuclear button"
I would say she has extensive experience with going nuclear!
My question. If she runs for office, will she have to declare Archie, proof of? Even Melania allowed Barron out a few times, although she has tried to protect him from public scrutiny most of the time. And, The Obamas the same.
I think the public would demand to see an Archie--a consistent one, and one who recognized his parents.
After looking over the Aging Care website, it's structure, the emphasis on building an elder care business, legal issues, etc., I see so many opportunities for families and the elderly to be scammed of their money.
It appears help people, including those with a degree in social work (Doria), start their own elder care business. The emphasis appears to be in all aspects of building a care business, including billing, promotion, expansion, etc. the patient seems to take a back seat to the business opportunities.
As you said, one section is about providing care for loved ones who do not have a family member near by (isolation), and many of the services they offer involve the financial control of the elderly client. It also focuses on helping those with dementia or Alzheimers, those who cannot protect their own finances. Normally, these services would be done by an elder care attorney, a hospital or a social services agency. However, this company, (which is a company within a company within a company, with slightly different names) can take over all control of the patient, and that is an easy gateway toward, shall we say, "financial manipulation."
The more I read from the website, the more worrisome it becomes, when it comes to protecting the elderly from fraudulent practices by independent, for-profit companies. The seminars offered are business growth-based, not care-based.
This organization puts the elderly patient in the care of just one person who, with little experience, starts an elder care business, and who could completely control the elderly person's life and finances.
Of course, many of us know that there is an enormous problem with fraudulent practices within the overall elder care services community, with the focus based on making money rather than providing quality and compassionate care for elderly patients. This group of individual elder care business owners should be investigated. Questions should concern how the elderly person's money is protected from fraud, the use of county, state and federal funding coming to each elderly patient and how those monies are used by the individual care business owner, how Social Security and Medicare/Medicaid monies are used by the caregiving business owner, how monies from family members are used. This is just the start of the hundreds of questions that I have about this organization and its individual care business owners. I think all of you will get my drift.
Update on CDAN - there is a posting in the comments from "Scottish Wildcat" with some very interesting information.
I've given up trying to locate this, what with ads jumping around everywhere. Can you give
a few directions, please? I searched `Scottish' and all I got was Suan Boyle...`wildcat' was nothing but kittens.
Very frustrating.

I don't think it's referring to the UK in particular, unless she is being backed for working toward a republic and ousting the monarchy, but I think it's bigger than that. We have the Obama/Clinton connection, the Russian connection, the world elite connection, the SoHo House connection (which could be a front), and those who MM has worked toward ingratiating herself into in her plan for a political career. Or, it could be a combination of any of these.
I think we have to look deeper and darker to find the powerful backers.

Then find your way through all the pop-ups and ads to the comment by Scottish Wildcat, then click on and enlarge the attachment. Click a couple times to be able to read it. It concerns M's reported financial worth and the fishiness of Doria's inheriting of that house. Nothing we haven't heard before, but this is the paperwork regarding it and brings it all together nicely.
"Remember, even if your agreement remains oral and is not put into writing, you have made a contract and are responsible for all charges for work done by the Aging Life Care Professional and her/his staff."
Shady, shady shady!

Interestingly (to me), I was going over the Hunter Biden financial contretemps/payoffs (as bagman for his dad?), and one of the payors of millions was a Russian oligarch with connections to Russian organized crime. I do believe our sweet little Meghan who wants everybody to be kind also has connections with some shady Russian oligarchs, one of which rejoices in the pseudonym of "scarface".
In answer to WBBM, judging by her daughter, it's within reason to worry about Doria being involved in something similar. Her alleged company's website wants to collect names, addresses, phone #s, & email addresses without telling much more than a collection of soothing marketing claims about themselves. Prosecutors & watchdog agencies are understaffed in normal times. Covid has created a 'while the cat's away ' situation. I think after the election hysteria dies down, we'll get stories of all kinds of scams which arose during Covid.

This may just be a co-incidence but several days ago when someone here first posted the link regarding Doria being CEO of 'Loving Kindness'. I thought this information needs to be mainstream and I decided to test a theory I have held about the DM for a few months.
I posted all the relevant information including website address and filing document links in the DM comment section saying 'You should look into this DM' that particular article was on moderation so I knew someone would be reading the comment before it hit the press. I have done something similar on different subjects twice before that no mainstream media was touching, the comments did not make it to print but lo and behold on three occasions now an article about information covered in my comment turned into a DM article within a day or two. Twice might be co-incidence but three times seems like someone at the DM is reading the comments and noting anything there which might have a story in it . Which I was hoping would happen, all journalists love a genuine lead they can follow.
So Nutties if there is some information with solid documentation behind it you want the DM to publish mainstream then this seems to be the route to go, thy are always asking if people have information on this or that to contact them but this seems a simpler and more anonymous way to get information out there.
Now maybe it's just that some DM staff read here and ran with the information but one of the three 'stories' which appeared just after one of my unpublished comments had nothing to do with Meghan or the RF. Give it a try yourslf and see what happens.

You will have to go back in to the blind though to download the whole article.
Caregivers in my state don't need any sort of licensing, education or experience in caregiving. Our local, privately-owned employment company lists caregivers with no credentials or experience at all, and many have questionable backgrounds. The employment agency doesn't even do a background check on these "caregivers." Many have very serious criminal records, one including serious child abuse.
I found my way through all of this when I was caring for my elderly mother with dementia. I needed help, and found that these these caregiving agencies are mostly scams. I can't begin to tell you of the horrible things they did, including stealing powerful pain medications and expensive jewelry, one situation of patient abuse (my mother told me about it, and the woman was fired and removed from my mother's home within an hour and reported to Elder Services). I took the meds and jewelry thief to court and sent her to prison for two years for that.
These caregivers would do the very minimum of work, wouldn't keep the patient properly clean or fed on schedule, sleep on the job, not do any of the doctor-recommended ADL's- the list was endless. I was living in my mother's house and had to monitor each caregiver 24 hours a day to keep my mother from harm. That's 24 hours a day for 20 years.
The most important thing that I learned is that a family cannot just leave an elderly relative with ANYBODY without constant supervision. In the nearly 20 years that I cared for my mother, and going through at least 50-75 caregivers from agencies like the one Doria is involved in, the employment agency, hiring through ads, hiring through the hospital and other social services, and even two top-tier nursing homes, I found that none gave quality care. In those 20 years, I found only two really wonderful, reliable and compassionate caregivers, who remain friends to this day. Their help, kindness and love toward my mother was outstanding.
On the first day of my mother being at one nursing facility, I pulled my mother out of there, due to lack of proper care. The facility was leaving naked patients in a cold, cement room and hosing them down like animals. That was considered the patient's bath, and that facility was $12,000/mo.
At another one, which was more than $15,000/mo, the attendant wiped my mother's bottom after toileting, then put the dirty wipes right on the tray that my mother ate from. On that day, I moved into my mother's room and slept in a chair for several months until the day she died. It was that bad, and that facility had the highest rating possible. Of course, now that I was watching their every move, Mom received wonderful care after that. The head nurse said she'd never seen a family member move into a patient's room, but that's what it took to make sure that she was receiving the best, compassionate care in her final days.
As you can probably tell, I get absolutely livid about how so many elderly patients are mistreated, not only by caregivers, but by their own families, who just dump their "loved ones" in a facility, care home, or leave them with companies such as the one Doria is involved in, and forget them.
If you love your parents, you will make sure that you are responsible for all caregiving decisions and oversee every step of their care. That's the only way to ensure the safety, quality of life, and happiness of your loved one.
Well, isn't life interesting?
I have been looking at the Loving Kindness website and a couple of things jump out at me:
The second picture looks a lot like MM. If it is her, who is the guy? a family member?
The fifth picture looks to me (I can be really wrong in life) like the Christmas card Archie. As a side note, it looks like grandparent level adult with grandchild which would not be appropriate for the text beside it. Pretty picture, yes. Syncs with text, umm, no.
What also really grabs me is that there is no stated location for a walk in. Nada. You contact us and then, we contact you. If it is, on the up and up, why would not even have a brick location even at a place which is just a PO Box like some of the mailbox type locations?
No phone number? Pff, if you are really looking for the people desperate to find someone to handle a loved one who is far from them, they will be looking for you at 3 am your time. You want to be able to flip the desperate into money paying client. They want to talk to a warm body, not a call you back when I feel like it and is really inconvenient because I'm somehow supposed to be on three zooms at that time.
These are all very flaggy to me but what I am really not seeing is any sort of oversight by legal authority within the state of CA. (or do they cover more than this state? also a flag - how far do they cover?). That's big, really. No judge is looking this over and giving their thumb of approval.
Nor does there appear to be any sort of licensing either. If you had a problem, there is not clear cut who or what department to begin with.
FWIW, I had a neighbor whose mother lived (no less) in CA. The neighbor's cousin lived near the mother and talked a judge into giving legal guardianship of neighbor's mother. Church members who knew all parties were told that neighbor had abandoned the mother so cousin was stepping in. Cousin immediately had the will rewritten to give everything to the cousin and cousins' kid. Legal nightmare trying to regain custody of the mother. And mother's possessions. Neighbor was able to take off for months to deal with this but would many people have this as an option?
@Wullie,
Thank you! It was a struggle, as Wullie also knows, but you just do what you need to do when it comes to somebody you love. Yes, I am grateful that all of this happened before COVID. I wouldn't have been allowed to go even into the facility to see her, let alone watch over her care.
I see no compassion in Doria that reflects that she would be good at this kind of work. It could be a money laundering operation or something like that.
As for why the BRF isn't doing anything about The Harkles, I read Ian Haperin's first series of his newest book last night. He says the BRF is terrified of Andrew's connection/"escapades" with Epstein (it's far dirtier than we can imagine, according to Halperin), and that keeping The Harkles in the press keeps Andrew's connection to the background of the news. Not sure that I trust Halperin, although it was an interesting read.
and all the other stuff about nature series is just pure PR to distract from that
Meghan and Harry as a reality show?
She thinks she can keep cultivating an 'image' and she will finally be the 'star'.
they also have major bills to pay and HAD to go the reality route.
too bad she isn't likeable at all! otherwise it would be interesting
The reality show should get the attention of the RF. But seeing as how deer-in-the-headlights inaction seems to be their MO, I guess nothing at all will come of this revelation.
As far as the Markle sh-tshow, I am starting to think that someone(s) powerful and rich are backing her. This has gone on far too long, and someone has to be awfully...lucky to keep floating this long like she has. It all seems to be working out for her. What are the odds?
Yes to both your posts!
I was out most of yesterday, so I didn't get to reply to your post. From reading Tumblr I gleaned that family at Prince Louis's Christening were asked to wear something that went with cool blues and that the royal women at the last Commonwealth Day had planned to coordinate in Union Jack colors. If either was not the case, however, then I stand corrected!
I'm thinking it's really just Meghan being a typical narcissistic mother, who didn't have a huge career and is still trying too, and the Royal family makes HIM the star by birth.
Sigh, when will she get it right. lol
If the Doria report on Yankeewally is true it could explain why Meghan has kept Harry away from Thomas, especially before the wedding, she couldn't trust him not to spill the beans about Doria's jail time for fraud and even Thomas's own possible fraud case. You can bet your life MI6 and the RF know about it if it is fact, it will all come out eventually when they need to bury Meghan's credibility and expose her true motives.
It sure doesn't look like it.
What if all the family members quit, had zero discretion, and took up full-time reality TV jobs as if they are professional YouTubers?
Is this what we can expect next? Brought to us by the blazing trendsetter and whip-smart Royal newbie, the Duchess of Sussex?
Episode One. So, we are like, should we help people. So we make peanut butter sandwiches (generic salt-free, sugar-free) to use up the bread left from the huge glamorous party we were going to have with top stars (show H on his bike dropping invitations off, cut to Markus and I make the nine charity sandwiches) but no one could come because of the wind so we still have the loaf of gluten-free bread. Then we put on our Travailista masks and try dropping the sandwiches off to help the people who aren’t privileged enough to be royal but at the second house Adele throws hers back at us and I tell her well then instead I can restyle her like look at my cute brown blouse game, but she has closed the doors so this episode is going to be about unkindness, and how we will need to change it and how lucky we happened to come here and move into an estate where we are so needed.
Episode Two. It’s a super cute madhouse behind the scenes when we do a Zoom call to this place that does stuff that we saw on a billboard when we were driven for our cosmetic procedures. We make the call cute! We trip over diapers we placed on the floor and Harry sits on a sprinkled doughnut which is a type of baby nourishment feed substance in upper France. We are like, where’s the nanny, oh how lucky Markus is here to help. So we Zoom and do Speech #3, then it is time for wine and talking on the phone to David Foster about did he see the acting video we sent when we performed two of the roles in Charlie’s Angels for our audition but he doesn’t answer then somehow we have more wine and fall asleep on the floor of our workout grotto then Markus wakes us with pizza rolls. Right at the end, Elon Musky stops by! What does he want? He says here are two free cars! Plus a third free car! We laugh and have wine in the big cups outside on the side where the sun sets (have H find on which side that is).
Episode Three. I can’t find Harry and I have looked in places in the house for about an hour so I have to call the international monetary police and I am in tears because this is what we have always feared, now look! So I change into Stella Mc and the police come and I say can you fly a drone in the house to check all the bathrooms and sure enough there is Harry still cleaning a loo in level two west after all. And the international monetary police who have meanwhile learned I speak French, Spanish and English and some Dutch from our weekend in Amsterdam at Soho House are impressed and try to get me to be enrolled to be a top spy in their police and have me try on the sleek jumpsuits I would wear and they are perfect. But I say no, I am a tender young mother. Elon Musky who is now a friend happens to be there and he also says no this young teen mother has been through too much already battling the aggressive clawing old people of the England palace, let her just concentrate on acting and beauty and yoga so the international monetary police leave sadly but I autograph their drone for them and we all laugh and they admit I am the flower of Montecito so I give them some cute extra ballots from mom’s voting foundation and remind them only we can build the building using complicit thoughts. /s
I hope that your friend can find the help he needs to help his father. The state of elder care is horrendous, but family caregivers definitely need help. My attorney told me that he's seen many family caregivers die before the patient does because they become so exhausted.
The two caregivers who were so wonderful to my mother, I found by advertising on Craigslist. Of all of the replies, I'd say 99 per cent were unemployable, but those two were gems. Just be sure to have them go through a complete background check, not those online, as they are not reliable or up to date, even if they say they are. After putting that caregiver in prison, my county attorney helped me to do comprehensive background checks through the courthouse (your friend's county courthouse may have the same), and I would only hire somebody with a nursing degree and a minimum of 10 years experience in nursing at a hospital, not an elder care facility where they learn to take shortcuts and other bad habits. They were usually retired and wanting a part-time job, so I needed several to cover a 24-hour period. Follow up on references is essential. Even though they can't give you much info, you can usually get them to give you a hint. Once, I told the HR person that I had a bad feeling about a possible hire, and asked if was I on the right track, and she said yes.
Tell your friend to keep a record of everything in a notebook (a patient log), including the ADLs completed, meds given (including type, time and amount), food and fluids consumed, bed changes, hair washing and bathing, notes on patient mood, etc. This is how they do it in a nursing home, and I followed that protocol, having each caregiver complete the form during each shift. I could look at the patient log and see that they noted they had given her a bath or a bed change, but I could also check that it had actually been done- and sometimes it hadn't. This also came in handy when I took the meds and jewelry thief to court, as I could confirm who dispensed how much and when, then backtrack to when the prescription was filled. Keep all med bottles away from the caregiver, and only give them the dosages needed for their shift. Remove all valuables. If they lied once on the patient log, or at any other time, they were immediately fired and they were warned of this in advance. Keep a baby monitor right next to the patient's bed so that you can hear exactly what's going on if you are out of the room. An audio/video recording device is good, too, in case any abuse issues come up. I know this sounds extreme, but if you'd do it for a baby, why not for your elderly parent who is equally incapable of caring for or defending themselves?
I hope this helps a bit. Another idea is to call your elder care abuse reporting agency and ask them if they know of any quality caregivers, or if they can give him a lead on one.

If Doria was taking care of my loved one, I'd be checking the bank accounts, credit cards, checkbooks, will, insurance papers, mail, etc., before the silverware! And definitely the wellbeing of my loved one before any of that.
Well, get a load of this latest one.
The scene of Harry and Meghan on the bench for their TIME 100 video is a copy of a photo of Diana and Charles. In the foreground of the Charles and Diana photo, a toddler, perhaps either William or Harry, has walked or run into the frame while in the Harkles’ photo, it is a dog in the background. Even the wood benches are similar! They are also seated on the same locations on the bench. Charles and Harry are on the left of the image and Diana and Meghan are both on the right of the image. The backgrounds of non-descript greenery are also very similar.
Go to Murky_Meg on Twitter. You have to scroll down a bit to see it, but both versions are in there. The C&D image is farther down.
I do not believe this was just a coincidence. It IS Meghan, after all. NOTHING is by chance with that nutjob of a woman.
The 'fly on the wall' documentary does not seem to have been announced by Netflix, just by Joko and Woko.
I am wondering if in fact there is no 'fly on the wall' documentary finalised, but they are using the threat of doing such a programme to blackmail Charles and HM into giving them more money.
i.e. If you don't stump up, we will be forced to earn our living by doing a Kartrashian docco.
Woko would take great pleasure in humiliating the RF and exposing Joko to ridicule, having him eat his Chocolate Shreddies in his jimjams, in front of the playstation.
Wildcat is doing sterling work – looks as if the tin-hatters among us may have been right even at the start. My money’s on MM, Doris & MA plus wherever the sticky tentacles of Soho House reach.
………………
We’ve got 3 and a half months until the legal case opens (pray it’s not delayed, folks) - at least that’s a bit sooner than the March review.
I’m still scratching around for ideas as to why the sole of the regal riding boot hasn’t been applied to the skinny arse of the `ex-royal’-grand-daughter-in-law yet.
Could it be that to do so could be seen to influence the outcome of the trial?
That is, it could be self-defeating.
It’s almost inevitable that the witch will lose, especially in the light of the `fly on the wall ‘ film, courtesy of Netflix.
Were the trial preceded by stern Royal action, it wouldn’t matter to her supporters that she was damned by the evidence of her own actions. They would assert that she couldn’t possibly have had a fair trial. That would be extremely damaging to the reputation of the English legal system, as well as to everyone on the other side.
By holding back until much nasty stuff has been revealed, The Royal side might be able to smile sweetly and say `Nothing to do with us, Squire’, yet having an even stronger reason for getting rid of her/them.
I hope that explains the foot-dragging
Now I can't find the website, only the equivalent of `Companies House' entries.
It would help enormously if folk C&P'd the ULR to give a link (that's the https/`dotcom' stuff at the top of the screen.
Please...TIA
Good point about why a royal boot hasn't been applied to the "skinny arse of the `ex-royal’-grand-daughter-in-law yet".🤣 Joking apart, you may well be right, it might well prejudice her trial. We don't want her to play the poor victim again. I just pray and hope the BRF are working behind the scenes to put a stop to MM's shenanigans.
How can she argue she wants privacy if the Netflix series is true? It's supposed to be about their 'philanthropy' (they might need to redefine it) and a 'glimpse of their lives' (Megs making avocado on toast/changing Archie's nappy/picking up dog poo from the garden/putting the bins out).
Magatha, we need you more than ever in these truly depressing times...
I have been thinking on and on about the proposed Netflix "reality" "tasteful" show which is supposed to highlight their all their charity work.
I'm wondering who or where or what charities will be willing to work with them? They don't currently have a sustained history of this one charity or theme through thick and thin? They go here delivering food, there to plant some flowers and so on. Scatter shots.
Considering how "privacy" orientated they are (NDAs just to go eat somewhere), I'm wondering how well this will work? Would there be so many strings that perhaps charities may decide that the JH&M red tape is not worth the effort?
are we seeing some complete from start to finish negotiations and then the finished product? Lots of dialing for dollars or is it more finding a worthy charity? What would be a worthy charity (do we watch the vetting of this over that one - sounds tacky?)?
I think that if you look at the little pr piece for the clothing where she "surprised" some of the people, it will have a similar feel. She likes that style. Like Vogue.
But can it be pulled off repeatedly enough for a series?
And, what do you do for the encore? ... and then, it hit me: what kinds of long term options could this offer?
It could go in a lot of directions ... such as name recognition for political office? maybe some sort of political appointment?
or how could this be used to her benefit in a divorce?
Will the Sussex duo finkaly reveal Archie I the flesh I the project goes ahead?
Was this the plan all along and the possible reason why 'Archie 'has been probably kept out of site for so long ? The magazine deals were not paying enough perhaps?
Only a 3 month series ?
(Maybe the 'child hire ''charges only stipulate 3 months?)
Wasn't a reality series of their own for the Sussex duo
to star in a long ago prediction on this and on otber sites ?
@Sylvia, thank you but I am referring to the comments about

https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2017/10/09/how-the-elderly-lose-their-rights
Thinking of elder care – I took my demented mother out of one home. They'd blamed her for refusing to stand up when they needed her to. She’d been sitting in a chair each day for so long that contractures had fixed her in a foetal position. I only discovered just how bad it was when we got her to our house. The home assumed she was holding her legs up deliberately when she was lifted into a wheelchair.
We looked after her for 8 months, supported by the NHS and paid carers, but lack of sleep nearly did for our marriage. Then she was taken into long-term care under the NHS and they were wonderful. The cost? Nothing, just her State Pension was stopped.
That was almost 30 yrs ago and it’s not so good now. The old person has to be alone and seriously disturbed mentally, not necessarily by dementia, to get State care - this happened with my cousin.
Having insisted she had no relatives, she was under the oversight of Social Services, until she was certified under the MHA. I and 2 other cousins were offered Guardianship but none of us was in a position to exercise it. We just had to trust the system (Court of Protection /Public Guardian) and the specialist home into which she was put. Guardianship went to a solicitor, there were no care fees to be paid (as in my mother’s case) and we heard nothing more until she died 15 months ago.
Both the Manager of the home and my cousin’s designated carer came to the funeral – they were lovely people who clearly loved their patients and the work they did. My cousin’s assets survived.
The NHS does screw up at times, and there are bad eggs, but wonderful care predominates.
Having just read your post I have great admiration and respect for your loving care compassion and devotion to your dear Mother in her time if need .
The length if time you devoted to looking after your mother looking out for her was awesome understandable you truly were an exceptional devoted daughter Your Mum was blessed thankfully with you at her side.
It was a shocking read.
You saw justice done in one case thankfully. Unfortunately
you had to witnessed first hand such untrustworthy so called carers who lacked badic care compassion empsthy kindness in a job that requires these qualities .
There ought to be a huge outing of these people.Apurge and dismissal through the system.
You have expose on hete the rotten underbelly of the care if the elderly .
Your suggestions for other carers of vunerable family wuth a need for carers are invaluable .Your experience hopefully makes families hi ate caters
always question everything regarding the care
Take nothing at face value last of all the carers .

Real Harry-wife of Montecito -
Absolute brilliant post. Can’t stop laughing. Made my day.
Good night.
Is Andrew the key to all this. Utter, nauseating, corruption?

Is sex-addiction hereditary (nature?) or down to environment (nurture?)?
We discussed Epstein and friends going for `low-hanging fruit' previously.
Ghislaine Maxwell was at Diana's funeral, near the front too. Was the post-divorce Diana another one ripe for the plucking?
'Title of the documentary should be
'The only way is Sussex'
(There is a UK reality TV series called
'The only way is Essex'
The tv reality focus was
based on the lives if young 'aspiring 'types living in
Essex many former London East End residents driven out by rising property prices in their area of London. There used to be an(unfair?) derogatory term for people from Essex prior to this tv programme ....)

Are you by any chance referring to the Essex ladies dancing around their handbags whilst wearing their white stilettos.......? (Look, she's from Essex)
Or was there something else that I missed? 😄

Thinking of which, even that film sounds like propaganda, just as the corruption of Thomas the Tank Engine did.
We've commented on the parallel with Nazi propaganda being incorporated into children's literature before. It also went into school texts, as I was taught in History when I was 14 or 15. I distinctly remember, once in a physics class, wondering just how Goebbels would have phrase a `problem' about turning moments, which began `Two men carrying a carcase on a pole...'
What was that about that about Pearson Education's connections...?
What are Soho House's links with somewhere `that's not a friend of Britain'.
Are you thinking of `Essex Girl'
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Essex_girl
Apologies to the poster of that name!
I was remembering back to my late teens in N.London but reading that Wiki page, I've now realised that the description of an 'Essex Girl' has become far more derogative!!
We were kinder back then.... lol

Thanks, Pantsface
Yes, that could well be her - it's the way the eyes bore straight through the camera lens.
Also the child just might be `Archie' - the Far Eastern ethnicity is underlined by the `granny & gramps' but take them away, get the face with the head slightly tilted backwards, and it could be Baby Sasquatch. The crossed eyes, for example.
......
Yep, it all looks like blackmail on a scale I couldn't previously have imagined.
Matter of fact the threat of this reality might be nothing more than Megsy and her lawyers way of extorting some more millions from the BRF. These sharks can smell blood in the water. They can smell dithering and weakness.
I had to check out the original photo of Diana on a bench myself. Here is the link for others who might be having trouble finding it:
https://twitter.com/Murky__Meg/status/1309939611293102085/photo/1
then again, she also believes she's a Hollywood actress, a philanthropist, a victim, a fashion designer, a trendsetter, a chef, a writer, an orator, beloved, admired, adulated, and the future president of the United States have I missed anything?
You missed devoted mother and sexist woman alive.
