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

What a fantastic endorsement! A great slap in the face for Megalo. I hope she's hopping mad.
"I think that due to Harry’s soiled reputation outside of the US, especially in the UK and Canada, which have both been crapped on by the Sussexes, the ratings won’t be that great."
100% agree here. Back in the day Diana could have gotten the press for something like this but she put in the time with the Firm and was a global and beloved celebrity, not a divisive figure of Wokeism like these 2. Even had Meghan put in the time, she couldn't replicate Diana's magic, tho over time, Diana's legacy has faded. I know I'm plum sick of the fame game and B/C/D list celebrities using charities to promote themselves. It was fresh when Diana did it. It's stale as Wonder loaf that's expired these days. The Delusional Duchess can crib all the notes from Diana's playbook and still never approach her success. They have nothing to sell but dirt on the RF and they dropped the payload with Oprah. And a year to think of something good and they are still cashing in on the RF.
MM Not faring well
American Nutties, can you confirm?
'MM is not faring well in all the tabloid news in US.
Latest headlines state: Harry and Meghan TV Lies exposed they were not abused they were not pushed out their only regret is losing royal status and privileges. Plus Mean Meghan targeted in palace bullying probe. Then there is MM pregnant trying to save marriage. Meghan’s Drug Secret exposed. Bombshell about sister she is hiding from Harry. Experts unmask Harry’s cruel and vindictive wife. Meghan’s secret psych analysis. Threatened sucide to get her own way. Wanted to destroy William and Kate. Not all is true, but interesting she is not suing. Interesting they are now coming out with all those headlines. Last year, you would of never seen such negative press about her.' (Skippy)
I hope you get one of those jobs you've interviewed for!! Knock 'em dead!
The idea that the uterus wanders about (making a woman hysterical in the ptocess) was disproved yonks ago and I wonder at the level of intellect of those who swear it's a genuine pregnancy.
Could she be so convinced she's `really' black that she chooses a black moonbump?
'not farting well'!! Thanks for the laugh:-)
Queen is stripping people of honours at record rate, investigation shows

Mostly sex offenders, nothing to get excited about but is it significant that this has been published at this time?
I think I remember that he was not removed from Invictus as it is not directly related to the UK military but is a private group?? Can anyone confirm?
Regardless of whether he is still a formal patron or not, this news just emphasizes how they have nothing to offer other than their ties to royal matters.
Pantene!!! buhahahhaha
I was trying to look-up that connection. I went to Invictus Games partners' page on their website.
https://invictusgamesfoundation.org/foundation/our-partners/
Safe to say, the Harkles will tap into some of these names here, perhaps have already.
Re the news about Harry and the Netflix doc of Invictus...is Harry still a patron of this organization?
-----------------------------------------
Yes, in big font size. But notice he's just there by title not name, unlike others on the page, I wonder why that is. Bit odd. Is there a meaning to that?
The write-up under credits him with bringing the Games to London.

"Re the news about Harry and the Netflix doc of Invictus...is Harry still a patron of this organization?

It started life as a royal charity created to give Harry something to do. It had funding from the MoD and strong military ties.
Somewhere in time it became it's a foundation. Still has strong military ties and funding from military charities, but doesn't need a royal patron.
IMO, ELF is one of the trustees and perhaps he retains an affection for Harry and or Harry's usefulness to the organisation as patron.
It's funny because around 2016 / 2017 when Harry became involved with Meghan he gave an interview in which he said he didn't see his involvement with Invictus as a long term thing. Now he is firmly attached to it as if his life depends on it.
Markle has a cousin with a successful pot farm. They'd be better off putting their label on a cannabis mix.

That is her half-brother's son - MM's nephew.
Remember when he came out with a special weed blend to celebrate the royal wedding?
It was supposed to be super strong...I'm sure Doria would have loved it!
I believe he called it the "Markle Sparkle"!
ROTFLOL!!!
I can imagine how Meg & Harry’s cannabis blend would go over in BP.
Maybe the reality would be withheld from HM and PP.
“Well, Mummy, evidently Harry and Tungsten have added botanical supplements to the coffee line and it seems to be a nice little earner."
"How nice. One feels that a Bombay Sapphire is calling, don't you?"
Sussex Sparkle: get Royally lit up
Subscribers.
The Harkles are signed for their ability to put spotlight on the service and therefore attract new subscribers to the platform. Netflix and or quibi have the deep money pockets to throw them a bone to absorb the vanity projects they produce.
The Harkles will always remain a vanity signing until Netflix decides they aren't worth keeping on the books.
Spotify have already publicly admitted that they are a vanity signing specifically to advertise that platform. So far they are happy enough with how the signing is going that they included it in their recent quarterly report. They didn't sign them up for podcasts despite everyone pretending they did.
@Hikari: LOL!
I recommend a stiff drink or an airsickness bag for this one. Meghan is trying to drum up a baby shower that people may "mistake for the Oscars!"

From The Royal Observer:
Part One
EXCLUSIVE: MEGHAN MARKLE IS PLANNING A 'MASSIVE' BABY SHOWER WITH HER 'HOLLYWOOD FRIENDS' NOW THAT SHE'S 'OFFICIALLY OUT OF THE ROYAL FAMILY,' INSIDER REVEALS
When Meghan Markle was expecting son Archie in 2019, she flew to New York for a $300,000 A-List baby shower at the Mark Hotel, hosted by Serena Williams, Amal Clooney and pal Jessica Mulroney. However, that was just a small get together compared to the shower she is planning for her baby girl, an insider reveals.
“Meghan was still trying to play by the royal rules when she had her first baby shower in New York. Now she is officially out of the family and can do whatever she wants, which includes having a massive celebration,” a source exclusively tells The Royal Observer. “Expect Oprah [Winfrey] and Gayle [King] to be involved, along with Tyler Perry and all the pair's new Hollywood friends. This is going to feel more like the Oscars than a baby shower.”
There is even talk about family and friends around the world being able to Zoom in, like they did for Archie’s first birthday.
“The Queen will be very welcome if she wants to jump on Zoom,” adds an insider. “Baby showers are much more American than British, but the Queen certainly is aware of them after all the backlash and headlines that followed Meghan’s first in New
York."
According to the source, the invite is eco-friendly and gender neutral, despite the couple revealing that they are having a little girl.
While chatting with Winfrey in an interview that aired on March 7, the duo gushed about adding a new member to their brood.
“A girl, you know, what more can you ask for? But now, you know, now we’ve got our family. We’ve got, you know, the four of us and our two dogs, and it’s great," Prince Harry, 36, said.
It was recently revealed that the pair are planning on having a home birth in their Montecito, Calif., home. "It’s a beautiful setting to give birth to her baby girl," the insider dished.
After the former actress, 39, and Harry welcome their baby girl into the world, the two "will both take some proper time off," a friend of the couple shared.
"It will be the summer and they want to make sure they both take their leave so they have some real quality time together once the baby arrives," the insider added.
End
Its really kind of pathetic, isnt it? We all know she is tge "insider".
@JennS
Love the new Avi!! You have some serious skills!
My great-great great(?) uncle on my maternal side was a friend turned bodyguard to Empress Elisabeth of Austria. He had stopped two attempted assassinations on her life. He received many awards for his heroics. He was walking several yards behind her when an Italian anarchist finally killed her in 1898. My uncle and aunt were childless, so the rewards of diamond jewelry and medals were dispersed with his nieces, nephews, et al. I have a pair of diamond earrings that was given to my great whatever wife.
Georgette Heyer wrote ‘Envious Cascade’ around - well, not to give the plot away, but throughout the Heyer mystery book were references to Elisabeth and her biography gone missing. It is my family!
Nutties, you will appreciate this. Princess Eugenie posted a special family photo to mark Easter on her Instagram. Have a look. We mustn’t assume that the royal family isn’t finding ways to have a bit of fun with the current debacle. The Suxxits are being mocked, my friends, and it is glorious.
Yes, autocorrect can be annoying. It is Casca, too.
BTW, is it normal to plan your own baby shower?
but if it isn’t, i agree, typically in the US baby showers are for the first baby and the second / future babies get to use the hand me down car seat, crib, etc. but the Harkles are rich folks with nouveau rich friends so their flaunting their wealth standards are different than the rest of us plebs.
secondly, the article states it will be a Zoom shower too so friends ans family can attend. UH, wat family? MM has none except Dorai and JH immediate family havn’t been speaking to him, reports indicate the entire BRF hasn’t spoke to him. again, What family?
Third and most important - baby showers are thrown by Friends and / or Family for the expectant mom. The mom does’t throw her baby shower, thats seen as super tacky ( but MM is tacky). And as I already said , What family? and Baby Showers are an American thing not a Brit thing, so I doubt the BRF are ‘throwing it’.
I think this is another lame SS planted story meants to bring sympathy, attention, press, and but actually makes the Harkles look very foolish.
Massive baby shower??? They must really be poor. Most families I know only have a shower for the first, they keep the hand me downs for the second. Unless the babies are born super far apart. Maybe its just us poor folks. Also, arent there still Covid restrictions in CA? They will still have to document all the gifts and claim them on taxes. Just one more example of Sussexs tone def and desperate for hand outs.
BTW, is it normal to plan your own baby shower?
Didn't she give the hand-me downs to the women in Africa (which I thought was extremely gauche)? We all know that any baby accoutrements were never used...
I wouldn't give that witch (and we all know how I spell it) anything considering that she apparently just tossed the expensive baby swag in the trash.
I have *never* heard of anybody soliciting baby items via press release before.

Oh, I see. Her first baby shower was a paltry mere $300,000 event. What a bunch of LOSERS. Now people with REAL money are going to be showering gifts on her, er, I mean, baby. All her new Hollywood friends will throw a more Oscars than a baby shower party? I'm divided as to whether she is going to be crashing Oscar parties or didn't get invited to anything and she MAD.
Yes, a BFF, a sister-in-law, friends from work, THAT is who throws baby showers. That is, if she actually had any of those things that were on speaking terms with her.
Shes already had a 300,000 dollar spectacle in NYC the first time around.....and now she wants a second Spectacle for her second baby?
I thought she didnt like Spectacles !!!
Didnt she prove her dislike of Spectacles with her 2nd wedding overnthe top 30 million dollar wedding with all the accouturemenys personally choosen or approved by her with the exception of the tiara? Her mile wide smile that day was proof for the world!
Didnt she also show her disdain of Spectacles when she and her husband did an Oprah interview that was viwed globally by millions?
She hates Spectacles!
