New open post to discuss Meghan's upcoming NPR interview for "The Bench."
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.

Meghan Markle to give first interview since birth of new baby Lilibet
Meghan is taking to the airwaves to talk about her new book
Tom WilliamsFriday 18 Jun 2021 4:13 pm
Meghan Markle is set to appear on national radio in the US for her first interview since the birth of her new daughter Lilibet.
The Duchess of Sussex will talk about her new children’s book, The Bench, on NPR Weekend radio show on Sunday.
It’ll be the first time her fans get to hear from her since she gave birth to her second child on June 4.
The chat with host Samantha Balaban will be the only interview Meghan does about the book, according to friend Omid Scobie.
He tweeted: ‘Fresh off the heels of her first children’s book becoming a certified #1 New York Times bestseller, Duchess Meghan will be giving her only interview about #TheBench to @samanthabalaban at the renowned @NPRWeekend show, this Sunday between 8am 10am eastern
Sunshine Sachs is getting them press, a book, some interviews, but so what? I still think they live in their self-made Hell, and both are utterly miserable.
I can't wait to see what she wears.
Well, from the size of the bump, her deflated pannus should be at about her knees. So, are you waiting to see if she wears something form fitting, or something in a ghastly color for her but is by a designer far too expensive for common people.
Why this why now?

Police quizzed Charles over Diana murder conspiracy: Scotland Yard chief reveals how he was forced to quiz Prince of Wales over wild allegations that he plotted to kill his ex-wife

I certainly don't want to hear her voice.

@ Sylvia Just DAMN! Helluva happy father's day note to Daddy Charles from Sucksess PR.
as for the interview. i do t have the stomach for that. i wonder how long it will be. like 5 minutes. checked twitter and nprweekend doesn’t have much posted nor does the assistant producer that scoobie doo referenced. and certainly nothing about the mrs. the interviewer looks like has done some of these interviews with children’s book authors and illustrator. looked at her linkedin page. latino studies major and spent a short stint at a career building program in argentina in 2009
Not sure if anyone else caught this comment on CDAN today regarding the BG blind about Meghan trying to score Bill Gates -
From commenter gauloise: "Interesting this happened around the same time that her personal assistant quit. Her personal assistant used to be Bill Gates's long-time personal assistant."
Oh MY, that's an interesting angle - did anyone else know that? I haven't caught up on our commentary yet so maybe it already came up.
Bringing this over from the other thread:
I think someone is confusing Catherine St. Laurent, the former Archewell executive director who used to work for the Gateses, and Melissa Toubati, one of MM's former PAs who used to work for Robbie Williams and Madonna. MM bullied the latter, and the final incident was apparently memorable and involved a lot of other staff members.
If I didn’t want anyone to listen to me, I would book myself on Sunday Weekend Edition 8 am to 10 am on Father’s Day.
It’s also 48-72 hours too late to sell the book for Father’s Day.
Do sugars listen to NPR Sunday Edition? I tend to doubt it.🤨
So, I view it as a last-minute, desperate move simply to create stories.....to smother any images of WIlliam on Father’s Day.
Really dumb, as she will be ignoring her own dad on Sunday. And press will point this out.
My guess: The Harkles are desperately angry about something not going their way.
📗
Well, then, trashing everybody is SURELY going to make the people they are angry at say "We were so wrong, they're actually a misunderstood but dim sweet couple, we must invite them back."
From previous thread...if M was 'arrested' for anything it was probably her violent behavior, not drugs. She is a known bully before and after she met H.
I have no problem believing MM is violent, but sociopaths usually only resort to violence when they have to. And that might be rarely because they're just so good at getting what they want through other non-violent ways which they might enjoy even more.
I would easily believe she was physically violent with someone pregnant or not.
They say the most dangerous criminal of all is a cornered sociopath. The BRF may have been advised to give her an out by letting her run back to America.
She has a face for radio…
My first Wild Speculation is that the BRF have demanded DNA proof and delivering physicians' statements that the latest child is, in fact, a child of 6 and was born of the body with no surrogate hokey pokey.
/Don't worry, I have lots more.

I wonder why she isn't monetizing her voice for pest control? She could make a fortune driving mice and rats away.
Why not be available to try to sell more copies?
Henrietta But Meghan as a member of the royal family needs a visa.
" Her Britannic Majesty's Secretary of State requests and requires in the name of Her Majesty all those whom it may concern to allow the bearer to pass freely without let or hindrance and to afford the bearer such assistance and protection as may be necessary."
Not 100% sure what the question here is. If it's about their attending the Commonwealth service, my point was, as head of state, the Queen can allow MM back into the country for her own reasons (or none at all).
I'm not sure how they would handle this with a visa. Since U.S. and U.K. passports are machine readable, it seems like something the U.K. could do electronically on their end. But that is just a guess.
I don't want to date myself by going into details!
Not sure MM would lose her visa but I can definitely see Charles threatening to cut H off if he didn’t go to rehab. Didn’t he put him in rehab once before? It’s not uncommon for addicts to need rehab more than once. Also, newly recovering addicts are particularly vulnerable to manipulation, so much so they’re advised not to make major life changes too soon after rehab. Perfect situation for vipers to strike ala MM.

If anyone can explain, it would be interesting.
My first Wild Speculation is that the BRF have demanded DNA proof and delivering physicians' statements that the latest child is, in fact, a child of 6 and was born of the body with no surrogate hokey pokey.
And something that could have been very discreetly done at the British consulate when Harry went to get the baby a passport or register the birth or renew his own passport or stopped by to use the restroom or. . .
I like to think she will be on radio because she has nothing to wear--no reputable fashion label will let her merch for them.
But realistically, a short spot on a Sunday morning radio show is probably all she could get on such short notice. Interesting that she had no TV interviews booked, and hence had to cancel, because the baby "came early".....
@Swampowoman: I'm still waiting for a legit physicians to sign off on Archie's birth....
@JennS. I can't remember how to get to your blog. Would you help please?
@Henrietta, @Girl with a Hat @Karla
U.S. citizens do not need a visa for tourist or business travel to the United Kingdom for a stay up to 6 months. A valid U.S. Passport is required.
And her visa would have expired long before Archie's birth. She did supposedly renew her passport at the London embassy.
They seem to "go to ground" whenever they need to deal with consular issues. There was the rumor (from Toronto Paper 1?) that after leaving the U.K. -- however she left it -- that she tried to enter Canada, but was refused entry at the border. Then there was the rumor that the reason they "fled" Canada was because they misinterpreted what Canada's "closing" of the border with the U.S. meant. And didn't one of the Toronto Psper 1's entries ask MM if she had "seen" them at Canada House when she and Harry went to express their "thanks" to Canada for hosting them?
It kind of sounds like they're so secret about things that they don't or won't ask basic questions about their consular needs from anybody.

Singalong 🎤
Apologies to Roberta Flack
First Time Ever….
First time ever I saw your face
I saw the rodent glint in your eyes
And the moon and stars dimmed
and shied from your glare
Into the dark and endless lies that,
you wove
First time ever I saw your smirk
I felt the bile rise up high
As your teeth clicked into
a fixed grimace
Wished to hang you up by
your weave that, you wove
First time ever I saw your bump
It swayed from side to side
Dropped down low between thighs
But your lies couldn’t hide
the web that, you wove
Pray it’s the last time ever I see your face
your face, your smirk, your bump….
Rather hard to sing, but it does
work, sort of 😉
The Harkles live in Opposite Land.
I will call you a foul racist who ruined her kids via genetic pain. Then, I will name my baby after you.
You cut off our allowance because we quit. So we will tell people you made us suicidal and killed our mom.
We will go to Australia as celebrated young ambassadors on a tour. We will throw teapots at you and tell a governor’s wife to F—- off.
I am a humanitarian. My hair was shorn from the heads of desperate impoverished women.
I am a mother a daughter and your sister. Sit your arses on the dirty floor or else.
I will glue my hands to my large bump for 11 months. I will never really show you what was inside.
We will seek absolute privacy. We will be in your face every single day.
We will pen a book about fatherly love. We don’t speak to our f***ing s*****g fathers.
Shall I continue?
Work when the cosmetic surgery hasn’t settled?
Appearances when you have no clothes to merch?
Talk to peasant commoners?
Risk actual mothers asking questions you can’t answer?
Risk sharp eyes noticing you look non-postpartum?
Let others flog the bad book.
Princess is bored and doesn’t do signings, anyway. Calligraphy takes way too long! 😃
Not sure MM would lose her visa but I can definitely see Charles threatening to cut H off if he didn’t go to rehab. Didn’t he put him in rehab once before?
https://www.theguardian.com/uk/2002/jan/13/monarchy.antonybarnett
"Charles is reported to have asked Prince William to suggest to Harry that he should spend some time at the Featherstone clinic to familiarise himself with the dangers of drugs. It was reported that the prince visited the centre for a day as a short, sharp shock and not for treatment."
It’s not uncommon for addicts to need rehab more than once.
I've heard anywhere from 7 to 11 times.
@Magatha,
That is amazing! 😂👏❤️ 🎵🎶
The rich imagery of the lines!
First time ever I saw your bump.....dropped down low between thighs..
Rodent glint in your eyes...
Your smirk... as your teeth clicked into a fixed grimace....
Oh my goodness, now I want to hire a street singer to belt this out on a corner in downtown Montecito...🎶🎸🤹🏻♂️
@JennS. I can't remember how to get to your blog. Would you help please?

What info are you looking for?😊
@AnT: Desperately angry about...not being able to liquidate assets because they're running short? They have to pay back Spotify and Netflix, and there isn't the funds for it because they blew through all the funds on themselves rather than producing content?
Is 6 inheriting more at age 40? Maybe they're demanding it now.
My wild speculation: there are no children. None. Never was. That kid in "Duck Rabbit" had no clue who 6w was. She has yet to monetize the kids, so the kids don't exist.
Rumors I hear re fleeing the UK/being banned to do with financial issues and, knowledge about Archie shall we say. Henrietta, is this what you heard? All allegedly; who knows.
Fraud would definitely qualify as something that could get your visa canceled. And when I read about an alleged kickback from Givenchy for the wedding dress purchase, my ears definitely perked up. It would involve quite possibly two other countries' police forces and be very embarrassing for the BRF.
In the U.S., the charges would be something like grand theft, fraud by deception, wire fraud. I can't imagine how MM thought she would get away with something like that. But when I went to look up the kickback online, I couldn't find where I had read it! It was just a rumor, unfortunately.
“Catherine St. Laurent, the former Archewell executive director who used to work for the Gateses” – yes actually I believe they are referring to her and suggesting she left the employ of the Sussexes around the time the Gateses actually split up (likely far earlier than publicly known).
I’m not really sure why you think the comment confuses these two people since there was no public kerfluffle (that I’m aware of) when Ms. St. Laurent left Archewell – I also have no clue on the timeline of that either because I’m crazy lazy.
Anyone else know about this?
AnT makes a good point about last-minute manufactured content to fill essentially empty airspace. Interesting, I bet it made for a cheap media buy. Nice point about ignoring her own father god she’s really just the worst.
I asked a (MM-positive/ not a sugar, uninformed) American black friend of mine if her opinion on MM had shifted over the last month and to my great exasperation the answer was a no (she remains positive on MM) but she made it pretty clear she had close to zero interest in following the story either. Regardless I was disappointed. Garrrr!!! *shakes fist at sky!*
And then I felt kinda stupid. >:( WhatEVER Nubi. People who are above it all make me feel dumb but to be fair her father is suffering badly from Alzheimer’s and she has two young children and a business to run plus a husband so… Fine. It’s fine.
She works in PR which is why it annoys me she’s not seeing things MY WAY but fine she also doesn’t care and can’t be bothered. I’m not trying to be the Mormon missionary of our haterade squad so it’s fine, really it’s fine.
Lol @ monetizing her voice for pest control, ahhh ahahaha ha ha!!
I don’t really think Charles can put H in rehab at this point, they would just showboat the experience and grift fees off the backend for repping the recovery center. Also you can’t help someone who doesn’t think they have a problem.
MustySyphone remains one of my favorite usernames here.
Also I’m pleased to have Opus, we haven’t had a man with opinions since Vince and he seems to have left, maybe because YOU KNOW WHO YOU ARE our bickering drove him away, c’est dommage. Unless I’m mistaken but I figured SirStinxAlot was female for some reason. Do we have other fellas in our crew?
"Catherine St-Laurent, the executive director of Duke and Duchess of Sussex's Archewell Foundation, has left the role after just one year." from March of 2021, easily early enough for the inside people to know of the pending separation.
https://www.independent.co.uk/life-style/royal-family/archewell-harry-meghan-catherine-stlaurent-b1820813.html
I agree with you, I think it is related to Spotify going sour, and lack of money since they produced nothing, or little, for Netflix. I think their lack of work was why they were given the silly “fact checker” jobs for The Crown, too — easy work they might be able to do?
And like you, I am unable to believe they had actual children. I agree: she would have monetized them. Harry does as she says, clearly, so there would have been no pushback. And that sweet Duck Rabbit child no idea who she was.
She had to hire someone to draw pictures in a story book to stand in for the kid, too. “....oh, how can I price we have a son? I know, I will call an illustrator.”
Yes, I think she had to leave, but not him. Totally agree about the BRF's being scared of worsening Harry's depression. I'm not so sure about the plausible deniability on the children though.
British citizens will want to believe the BRF didn't know about it, but it would require believing an incredible and cunning betrayal on Harry's part, something that would be hard to confirm if he was dead, to put it frankly.
I guess the whole situation has gone on so long because the BRF still thinks Harry is recoverable or they're trying to extricate themselves at as little financial cost as possible.
"Interesting this happened around the same time that her personal assistant quit. Her personal assistant used to be Bill Gates's long-time personal assistant."
We haven't heard a lot about MM's personal assistants quitting since MM returned to the U.S., and the only one who was regularly cited as having worked for someone famous before was Melissa Toubati.
But #2 will be monetized. And doubly so to make up for Arch, plus that girl babies always have more merch value. M is out of the UK and living far far away. She will defy the BRF as she merchs #2 far beyond Royal proprieties. Her target audience will obviously be silly Americans. We can see how The Bench was a flop in the UK. They are on to her so she has written off the UK. While this book has been doing well in America. 730+ Amazon reviews with 94% being 5 star.

Ha, you’re not alone, I have a couple of friends who are still semi-sugars buns too. It is inexplicable to me as they side-eye others for far less than Harkle level antics. I don’t ask, or talk, I just listen when they might mention something. One thinks the Oprah interview “proved” MM saved Harry’s life from the bad royals — except this friend likes the Queen, Philip, Charles and Camilla, William and Kate...,, 🙄 So not sure who that bad royals are? The other friend says thoughtful things like “even if they don’t have their own kids, at least they let other kids be in historic photos” and “since it is just ceremonial, they should just let Harry be king.” !!! My advice: don’t think about it or your head will explode. Just be there with tissues when we find out Megs was already married to Markus, and leaves Harry for Gates, and they publish the stories of the kids and their real mothers and agents the same weekend they find Harry buried in the basement.
The book price on Amazon US is down to $11.94.

"©Robert Lacey 2021 Extracted from Battle of Brothers: William, Harry and the Inside Story of a Family in Tumult by Robert Lacey, to be published by William Collins on June 24 at £9.99"
W O W. From the DM article you linked to.....
"And Lacey quotes a Kensington Palace courtier as saying: 'Meghan portrayed herself as the victim, but she was the bully. People felt run over by her. They thought she was a complete narcissist and sociopath — basically unhinged.'
The author also writes that he believes that William believed that Meghan had an 'agenda' and had voiced his reservations to Harry before their engagement, but that the row after Meghan and Harry's trip to Australia in 2018 sealed his decision to split their
households."
When William was told of the bullying allegations he was enraged, the book claims, because he knew the staff personally and considered them to be assets to the palace.
It also confirmed his suspicions Meghan was hostile to the royal system, and he wondered if she planned all along to bring Harry with her to the US.
AND THIS:
MailOnline has contacted representatives for Harry and Meghan as well as Kensington Palace for comment.
KRAKEN INDEED. The Palace isn't playing anymore. Lord Geidt unleashed the press -- and maybe the files?

So the Lacey book -- Robert Lacey is the sniveling Crown historian and Netflix gerbil I loathe. So what's Lacey's game? Drumming up biz for The Crown with his Brothers book, even if it angers Meghan?
Or is the DM just having fun using his book against his beloved Harkles?

Baby Lilibet's Name Proves 'Remarkable Bond Between Harry and His Grandmother,' Says Robert Lacey
@Karla
Okay to further confuse us: Verified Purchase Customer Reviews on Amazon about BATTLE OF BROTHERS:
1. Oct 16, 2020
This book is nothing but a collection of old stories of Diana and Charles with tabloid nonsense thrown in. Boring, dragged out to fill pages. It was obviously written by an old British guy and is loaded with racist xenophobic mysoginistic drivel. Whithin the first chapter there are blatant mistruths. There is nothing new, such a boring read I couldn't finish it. Its almost as if Prince William wrote this, its that much of a one sided story. This is an obvious attempt to clean up the mess the royal family made of having a biracial American women marry in only to be driven out by a very jealous petty william who couldn't stand to have someone outshine him and his consort. Another example of just how classist and racist Britain really is. I wish I had not wasted my money!
2. Oct 21, 2020
I was really excited to read this book, and thought it was going to bring a lot of new information on the brotherly royal rift to the table. But instead it covered up or glossed over a LOT of pertinent information. Basically it tries really hard to make Harry a poor misunderstood victim and blame all of his mistakes on William. IE That Nazi uniform--William's fault. Harry doing drugs? That was William again. William was also at fault for warning his brother to take his time before marrying Meghan that they didn't know her that well.....um---wasn't William totally right about her? It doesn't mention the Netflix deal, the dumping of the Invictus Games fundraiser, the missing the Royal Marines funeral to go to the Disney premiere with Beyonce, MM feud with Kate, the million dollars spent on clothes, the trashing of William in Finding Freedom ect.
The author actually thinks the Queen was too draconian in the Megxit deal!!! Pretty much the entire public (including a US congressman) thinks the Queen should have stripped those titles !!! If I were William, I would be FURIOUS at this distortion!! It also makes for an extremely boring book. Don't spend any money on it!!!
3. Oct 21, 2020
Interesting read. However, the author was highly inaccurate regarding the church at which Meghan’s parents were married. SRF Hollywood is not a Buddhist temple, rather a « church of all religions » that focuses on meditation. It certainly doesn’t have any « plastic Buddhas » on the premises. Brother Bhaktananda was not an ordained Buddhist priest. Didn’t expect an error like this.

In The Times text Lacey cites the Sussex interview with Oprah.
It just a launch of the paperback version -- another push to sell it in the UK:

now the mystery remains why the articles on his new book version are being shaped for william and against harry - yet lacey is still promoting siding with harry???????
ok now ill try the times site again...
Nutties - karla posted a link to free view of the times article above
@Karla,
So you think they updated the text for the paperback, to include more -- then changed from fawning to tough with the advent of the new bullying stories released by Jason?
Possible. Odd there is no indication of the updates online on the book ads or author's SM page, or Amazon.
Usually they stress "includes new unpublished material!" or "updated!" to get people to buy it again.
“AKA what we’ve thought this entire time - and we weren’t anywhere near her!”
And if we saw it from afar, watching and reading, can you imagine how bad it was behind the scenes?
I don’t know if this Kraken has been released by Lord Geidt, Jason Knauf, or one of those poor, bullied PAs, but bring it on!
@Mom Mobile,
@JennS
THANK YOU for finding that info about the 12 chapters for the June 24 UK paperback. Weird it isn't in the ads or Amazon snip.
But is he still a sugar??? Or does he flip with the wind? What about US editions?
In any case, fantastic for the DM for leaping on the juice.
@JennS,
try clearing your cache / cookies and restarting?
AnT I'm trying to verify this. But The Times reports that it will be published on June 24th. Robert Lacey 2021.
Sorry, I didn't see your discovery about the 12 additional chapters- Makes sense then that the Oprah Winfrey interview is mentioned.
@Midge. and others:
It the PUBLICATION of the UK paperback version of the Oct 2020 book, but new material aded:
FROM AMAZON UK: Battle of Brothers: You’ve heard from one side – now read the full, true story of the royal family in crisis Paperback – 24 Jun. 2021
@Mom Mobile and @Karla found info suggesting there are 12 new chapters in this PAPERBACK VERSION.....so seems Lacery has been adding as events happen including the bullying and that is flipping the story -- Maybe a book praising the Harkles isn't selling so they hope an updated paperback version damning them will turn on the money spigot.

FROM THE ARTICLE (I suppose it is from the book, then?):
William believed Meghan was following a plan — “agenda” was the word he used to his friend — and the accusations he had just heard were alarming. Kate, he said, had been wary of her from the start.
Meghan was undermining some precious principles of the monarchy, if she really was treating her staff in this way, and William was upset that she seemed to be stealing his beloved brother away from him. Later courtiers would coin a hashtag — #freeHarry. It was only half a joke.
“Meghan portrayed herself as the victim,” recalled one Kensington Palace staffer, “but she was the bully. People felt run over by her. They didn’t know how to handle this woman. They thought she was a complete narcissist and sociopath — basically unhinged. Which was why the pair of them were drawn to each other in the first place — both damaged goods.”

And a comment on the DM article about this new updated paperback version of Battle of Brothers:
I love this!! The truth finally!!! May this put an end to him benefiting financially being a mascot for American businesses!!

and another well-rated DM comment:
So many different stories and sides to tell. The truth will always surfaced one way or the other. There was so much talk about what everyone was doing to Meghan, but how about what Meghan was doing to the Royals???

Little Miss Meghan is going to have a bad weekend.
! more from the Times article --- sit down for this!
[...] Two opposing identities butting heads. In the months following the tragic and not-obviously bridgeable rift of October 2018 between William and Harry, the younger brother solidified his belief that his family were suffering from “unconscious bias”.
William, for his part, felt just as strongly about Meghan and the need for her subversive “agenda” to be removed from the operations of the British monarchy, which she did not appear to understand or respect. He certainly wanted Meghan removed, for a start, from the hitherto harmonious joint household that he and his brother had operated together for the best part of a decade. William simply did not want her or Harry around any more.
When accounts of the rift started seeping out through the winter months that followed, it was generally assumed that the volatile Harry must have set the pace in the splitting up of the joint Kensington Palace household. He was the brother who visibly departed, stalking off to set up a new home in Windsor, with offices for himself and Meghan in Buckingham Palace.
But the reverse was the case. It was William who made the decisive move. Following his furious confrontation with his younger brother in the autumn of 2018, the prince instructed Simon Case to start the process of dividing their two households immediately. William wished to be separated from Meghan on a day-to-day basis — and that meant being separated from his brother as well.
“William,” says a friend, “threw Harry out.”
.......And there it is.

The Harry and his wife are litigious. We know this and so does the British press. They wouldn’t do this without receipts. That means they either have someone that was bullied or someone that witnessed it.
With the exception Diana’s odious former butler, royal staff don’t talk. They don’t talk to writers or journalists. It’s just not done.
Someone gave the OK for this.
My money is on William. They should have never gone after Kate...
Okay ---
@Karla,
Here must be the "wiggle room" for Lacey to keep supporting his Kween whilst making new bang off the book:
He writes:
But Meghan’s lawyers and PR representatives said this was quite the wrong interpretation of their client’s thinking and behaviour in a statement that they issued to The Times early in March 2021. They denied all allegations of bullying as inaccurate and the product of what they described as a “smear campaign”. The duchess wished to fit in and be accepted, they insisted. She had left her life in North America to commit herself to her new role.
I have never met Jason Knauf. What you have just read is based upon the published accusations that Knauf set down on paper — refuted as “defamatory”, it must be stressed again, and “based on misleading and harmful information” in the view of the Duchess of Sussex’s lawyers. It also relies upon William’s personal account of these events to one of his friends who then spoke to this author.
Yes -- I agree with your assessment -- see the last line of what I posted above from the Times except at Karla's link:
It also relies upon William’s personal account of these events to one of his friends who then spoke to this author.
@xxxxx – talk about defying the BRF – I was furious to see their crest and logo atop the birth announcement, those are HRH elements outside their Duke/Duchess titles and it really chapped my hide. Most Americans don’t appreciate this but boy it made me mad.
AnT – yesssssss….. you’re not wrong but there’s also the sticky issue where my friends of color have absolutely (!!) experienced aaaaaalllllllll levels of less overt racism and for this reason Meghan’s claims are entirely believable to those who have experienced the same.
Imagine a woman falsely accusing a man of sexual harassment in a variety of ways ALL WOMEN are entirely familiar with and goddamn sick of – who are we more likely to believe? The stuff we’ve experienced our whole lives. So I give credit there, it makes sense.
JennS said “If the kraken is here and my computer won't behave I will have a huge hissy fit!” omg same.
It’s odd this Robert Lacey fellow is being quoted in People who shill for the Harkles, I’m confused by the presumed conflict of interest there.
I absolutely believe she screwed her last pooch by naming her daughter Lilibet. Honestly even the women on Celebitchy were taken aback though they have tried to play it cool since, god they are insane.
My sister and I put on costumes and went to Georgetown, where they were going to film a big Halloween party under the raised Whitehurst freeway, but it was raining, so they cancelled it. They did give us free drinks at several nearby bars as compensation, but I would like to have been in one movie, even if unrecognizable.
"But cryptically he said: 'And at the time, the biggest conversation was 'did this come from a senior member of the royal family, a future head of state?'. If that individual is a head of state, then we as a public have a right to know because of course that is someone that is our head of state, head of the Commonwealth. And if they have an issue with race, we should."
So.... What I think now (albeit with a brain yearning for sleep):
William had known Harry his whole life, and knows better than anyone the sh** his troubled brother is capable of.
He saw Megs for what she was --
He talked to MI6 about it
He probably had a quiet word with the Queen and Charles--but couldn't share his total thought line.
He realized it was going to be on him to handle this.
He called Lord Geidt for his view, and on alert, waited to see what would happen.
He kept a truth grenade in his hand.
It happened
He threw the grenade. Lacey caught it via friends. Jason. And the DM caught it.
The "Lilibet" game happened
The Harkles are abandoned in the sea now, and William is sending the gunboats to finish it.
My opinion only.
“Yes -- I agree with your assessment -- see the last line of what I posted above from the Times except at Karla's link:”
Sorry, I was typing and didn’t see your post. The cast came off my arm today but I’m still slow.
I should have been clearer- I think that in addition to William’s friend there is a staff member, perhaps one of the wife’s victims, that has been given the OK to talk. I just don’t think, given the Harkles swiftness at running to the nearest courthouse, that a UK paper would publish without having verified with more than source.
-----
@hunter -- one of my friends I quoted is a woman of color (the first quote about what the Oprah interview proved), and would feel like your friend, yes, though in this instance I think she focused more on Oprah as a goddess of truth so if she blessed what the Harkles were saying it must be true. The other friend is biracial, but in her case, she thinks we should think the best of the worst people and miserable people should be given all things until they are happy.....

got it ......and like @hunter, I agree with you. It's likely there's a solid source circle now or this wouldn't be printed so strongly in the DM (and the Times): William's influence, William's friend, AND a staffer.
I see the Oprah thing as pushing it all into critical condition -- the scruffy rude appearance at Philip's funeral as removal of life support -- and the Lilibet thing as the cause of death.
@Midge,
I agree.
The Harkles have been banking on tragedy and fake power to keep them untouchable: we're homeless! we're holy! we're Netlflix and running for president! we're miscarriage! we're pregnant! we're suicidal abuse victims! we're a new mommy and an author! We will make up and scream more accusations if you don't give us want we want!
They never in a million years thought the plug was being pulled by William.
This is going to be a tsunami.

ROYAL RIFT Prince William ‘threw Harry out’ after furious bust-up over Meghan bullying allegations, bombshell book claims
by Alex Winter
0:13, 19 Jun 2021Updated: 1:33, 19 Jun 2021
PRINCE William "threw Harry out" in a blistering row over bullying claims against Meghan, it's been sensationally claimed.
.
Second, will this NPR interview conflict with Spotify exclusive? Is radio different from streaming in terms of contract exclusives? Can we deduce this to ‘Meghan was fired from Spotify?’
Who works -when rich- 10 days after giving birth? How tacky. Conflicts with the ‘we’re taking 5 months off’.
BOOK EXTRACT
Prince William ‘split his household from Prince Harry after Meghan bullying claims’
Allegations against the Duchess of Sussex led to a bitter row between brothers who were once inseparable, says the author Robert Lacey
I think the more we repeat that quote, the better! Those just joining will see it in the event they don’t scroll back to catch up — though I hope they do as @JennS and her cries into the nutty wilderness with Karla about all this breaking kraken news are legend,
We will forever be saying “were you on the board that night....” lol!
I have zero hopes for the radio show Sunday due to the usual focus interests of the host. I expect ten minutes of Megs bravery in suffering so much abuse and royal racism in her millionaire non-working life in her $50,000 ballgowns and blood diamonds — yet she still crawled away from her pale male husband to write his illustrated instruction manual disguised as a kids book. It will probably begin with the hostess gushing, “Humanitarian, Princess, activist, and bestselling author — “. 🤮 I don’t expect any deviation from the platform.
Thanks for your article rundown. I’m sitting here mouth agape. I never really questioned the move to Frogmore, but now it makes so much sense. They were kicked out for being weirdos! I always found that strange. Who wouldn’t want to live in Kensington Palace? (Windsor is fine, but quite far from Meghan’s social scene.)
"At a Foreign Press Association event today, he [Scobie] said Meghan and Harry suspected it was "not just this one person" who spoke about how dark Archie's skin could be.
Instead, he said, it was a "much bigger issue" that involved more people.
So, they suspected, therefore it was? Also, is Scobie starting up parse his words more carefully?
@JennS,
Glad your computer problem is resolved!
Since this story bus rolling like lava over from the Times to the DM and the Sun, in precision, it seems like stellar PR approved by a WIlliam-led team.
I read in a few spots two weeks ago that Megs insisted on giving a speech at the Diana statue unveiling, was told no, so Harry yelled he wouldn’t be there unless she got to give a speech along w Williams and Harry....insane if true, of course.....but this Kraken will be the end of Megs’ UK travel anyway.
@lizzie,
Why don’t they just say “Harry suspected it was the entire U.K.”
Do you think Scobie is paid, or just a delusional sycophant?
Your feelings have been on target! Isn’t it amazing, a feeling of vindication?
My sense is however that this will enrage her so much, she will play a crazy, awful card soon. That worries me.
We BOTH felt something was coming this week! You had said so also earlier in the week...
I agree this may enrage her but she will only be showing her true colors if she does anything more at this point hurting her case even more. Now that it is out in the open that the RF feels she is mentally unstable AND she has been told the Queen will respond to misinformation, she better be very careful. She may find discover more kraken released or Childrens services knocking at her door. Or she may even find them stripped of titles.
How did we go from a conversation with one "racist" to conversations (plural) with multiple racists in just 3 month?
She's not going to let this story go. You guys are right- this is the wife laying the groundwork for something very ugly. She's going to nuclear. The upside is the RF will bounce back, but she won't.
Chrissy has acknowledged her past behavior and the pain she has caused, but she will not stand for …....

These above two birds have been semi-ruined by bullying claims. Claims that have cost them millions in endorsements. Ellen Degeners lost her show. Don't cry for her, she is still worth zillions from horse trading 20 million dollar houses. (Flipping)
Same can happen to the Duchess of Disasters. With a little luck Robert Lacey is getting the ball rolling on this process. M will need SS best crisis management efforts to save her. M will be burning up the phone lines this weekend.
The Kraken have not had a decent meal in weeks, ever since Godzilla knocked them silly.
Ah some people’s hearts are so much larger than mine. Perhaps they have not been crushed by the actions of bad actors and live in a bubble of ideal outcomes and best lights. Bless their tender souls.
Puds – I was reading your comment starting w/ “Mr Plastic” and I was thinking huh who is this new charact- OH Scobie Dobie Don’t, right - his Caucasianfication.
Am loving the powerful Prince William angle of him throwing PH out, that is a leadership move and I find it interesting it is repeatedly attached to these accounts – sounds like this is the real message, what do y’all think?
William is in charge, William can lead, William is strong, Kate smells bullshit and he respects her when she tells him… both a strong, united couple in the face of insanity.
Only 12 days away. Harry thinking -- "To show or not to show, that is the question". As the M bullying claims ramp up, courtesy of Robert Lacey. Who was fed the inside dope by The Queen's Grey Men. (My theory)
"Best soap opera ever"
Speaking of which, I started watching Flack on Amazon Prime (forget who suggested it) and it is a hoot. A little slow but good so far.
Anna Paquin's character makes a lot of self-destructive choices, tut-tut.
Finally Nutties, yeha, saddle up kids,
we’re in for a helluva ride!! 🐎
The velvet 🥊 and Scarf-ace Wills 🧣
Riven Rock is Kraken up 💥
I wish I could throw $50 at the chances either Archie (easy) or Harry (yikes!) may die while under her roof. No tears shed for the plastic child but the Harry thing - I wouldn't put it past her and she could keep her titles. Maybe she can medicate him into a psychotic break without his knowledge, the whole thing is 18 shades of wrong.
Chrissy shouldn't have used the f-word in her reply today, makes her look impulsive and out of control.
Being dumped by PMK would definitely make my butt pucker.
I suggested the series "Flack". Lots of laughs and dark humor.
Diana is the huntress in both Roman and Greek culture.
Maybe Kelly Clarkson would give her a break but Kelly seems too genuine for that to roll on real smooth.
It is a good name, easy to pronounce & spell. Apparently many French people learn it early-ish when learning English as well (unclear why) so they recognize the word (I lived in France for awhile & worked in a French bank).
Flack is good so far, I just got off Stranger Things so there are a lot less sub-dimensional demons and bodily threats so I need to adjust my expectations. Far less fight scenes, less gore, etc. I am thrown off by Paquin's character but glad she looked after the young pop star.
The Fracken of the Kraken
Wills caught a wave on a let rip tide
Out to get Harry, and his flagrant bride
Slaying the dragons, like a valiant
St George
Can’t wait to see, what next they’ll
disgorge
Ringside seats for when they go down
Only one winner, and that is the Crown
God Save the Queen
Chrissy Teigen seems desperate - I think she has been totally canceled.
I saw something about her asking Oprah for an interview of the type she gave the Harkles - CT is hoping she can clear her name by doing that! AS IF the O interview cleared up anything about the Harkles - other than that they are liars!
CT is writhing, not thriving. She and Legend love living opulently and displaying this on Insta-G. Their manse is worth more than H/M's. Their lovely lux lifestyle is under severe threat from the bullying claims. Already they are suffering a large dent in their cash flow. And what with Covid finally lifting everything was going so swimmingly....
If H cannot figure this one out then M will inform him. So my bet is H will fly over to London for the unveiling. Joyous faces will be put on by everyone, while behind the scenes it will be very unpleasant for all involved. This will be fight time, not brotherly reconciliation time. H will be on the next jet out. If he were really smart he would stay long enough to visit the Invictus offices and a few others of his last Royal links/quasi-patronages.
--- I like the story Hunter!

@JennS
You need to buy a new laptop, now!!
Busy day, had friends over for brunch,
missed the “Kraken Call to Arms” 😳
"Why don’t they just say “Harry suspected it was the entire U.K.”
Do you think Scobie is paid, or just a delusional sycophant?"
Good one! Too funny but unfortunately Harry is rapidly approaching that level of delusion if not already there.
Given that neither H or M is willing to pay for milk if they can get it for free (a perversion of Doria's teachings) I personally doubt Scobie is being paid directly by the couple.
SS and attorneys won't work for free but I suspect sycophant Scobie will. And it seems to me Scobie's been so biased that even if he wanted to, he can't now "go straight." (Plus I doubt he wants to anyway. He has a vested interest in their BS) And if he doesn't continue to bring the appearance of "insider connections" what good is he to his employers? (Or to his "followers." No one follows him for objective news.) He constantly squabbles with the public, proudly reports iffy news/untruths, and has been caught in outright lies (FF although his culpability there got less press than I would have liked.)
I do think though he's been parsing a bit recently. And I'm interested in seeing where that goes. It may be FF and the court case prompted a little discretion in some certainly not all, of his reports. It's also possible the siren call and ability to mesmerize is weaker having to come from California than it was when they were all together in jolly old England. Just like "Memorex" was never quite as good as live, Zoom isn't either.
'the rodent glint in your eyes 😁
And the moon and stars dimmed... I felt the bile rise up high'
Love it! 😁
Lacey quotes a Kensington Palace courtier as saying: 'Meghan portrayed herself as the victim, but she was the bully. People felt run over by her. They thought she was a complete narcissist and sociopath — basically unhinged.'
😂😁😂We all knew it and many in the U.K too...😁
@JennS
Thanks for the article, WOW Just WOW!!
Basically confirmed all our theories over
the past couple of years!!
I always thought they’d been booted out
of KP, Frogmarched to Windsor 🐸
I also remembered the announcement
being made half way through their OZ tour,
that the courts were splitting, not after?
Tried googling, cant find it,
feeble mindedness ??
Only jarring note was reference to
Duty v Love, Wills can’t have both?
I also remembered the announcement
being made half way through their OZ tour
----------
This is exactly the way I remember it. I thought at the time that it was a bit suspicious that it was announced while the 6s were away and I thought the decision had been made behind their backs. I'm sure that's how it happened, they were not consulted.
~~~~~~~~~
Re. R Lacey's Book extract, H said abt the floozy during the tour of Australia:
...'the first time that the family got to see how incredible she is at the job. And that brought back memories.”'
I just cannot believe this is his perception of events. This shows how brainwashed he's been. M must have 'reminded' him how Diana captivated Australia and that history was repeating itself. Rinse, repeat.
@Maneki
Thanks, I actually felt the bile rise
up high as I wrote it 😆
Yes, I distinctly remember commenting
on it in DM at the time, the blighters were
still over here!
That’s why I believed they’d then been
kicked out of KP.
Same with S.A. tour, they were told to take
‘garden leave’ straight after.
Appears all the ‘leaks’ were true!!
Can we please have a major nappy leak,
Surro-gate 🤞
Where’s WildBoar?
Missing the Krake 😮
A couple of things peeved me off as I'm reading the article...
1 “The author also writes that he believes that William thought that Meghan had an 'agenda' and had voiced his reservations to Harry before their engagement, but that the row after Meghan and Harry's trip to Australia in 2018 sealed his decision to split their households.”
They had only been married a couple of days when they went to Australia.
Why did they allow this marriage to go ahead when the sh*t was already hitting the fan. I really do think this needs to be explained.
It should have been a private small ceremony and not involved taxpayers money.
2 “But the brothers were no longer on speaking terms before Harry and Meghan left for Australia, the book states, adding that it was bullying allegations that sparked a brutal row.”
So can we can gather that the bullying started before they were married?
Would you not tread carefully if you the newbie?
3 “In their infamous Oprah interview, Harry cited the Australia 2018 tour as the moment ' the family got to see how incredible she is at the job' while comparing her and the alleged treatment she received by the royal family to his mother Princess Diana. “
Obviously they needed to get their “truth” out there to cover their backs.
From what I saw of the Australian tour, I found it utterly embarrassing and not the "hit" they made it out to be.
@Maneki
“I hate those meeces to pieces”
Pixie and Dixie Markle!
Luckily the rampant rodents are rural!!
I listened to her audio last week,
hence: “Skid Prose” 😳
Not Kraken level but an article on M's book. The last two lines sum it up.
Have any kids read Meghan’s Magna Carta?
The Daily Telegraph19 Jun 2021
Have you read The Bench by Meghan, Duchess of Sussex? Suffice to say, The Hungry Caterpillar, it ain’t.
Quite what the late, great Eric Carle may have made of the royal’s schmaltzy rhyming word salad, we will never know. But it seems some readers are greedily gobbling it up.
Despite it being universally panned by critics and liked by just 31 per cent of Google users, it has made it to the top spot in the New York Times bestseller list for children’s picture books. (It has fared less well in the UK where it was initially a best-seller after its release on June 8 but didn’t make the overall Top 50.).
Reacting to the news of her literary success, Meghan released a typically down to earth statement that hardly stopped short of likening its impact to that of Magna Carta. “While this poem began as a love letter to my husband and son, I’m encouraged to see that its universal themes of love, representation and inclusivity are resonating with communities everywhere. In many ways, pursuing a more compassionate and equitable world begins with these core values.”
Indeed it does, Meghan. But does it actually resonate with children? I’m not sure they are necessarily on the same page as the average Duchess devotee.
It may have been amended - but something short of a second edition. I'll check it out.

@JennS I believe the Lacey book is being reissued with 12 additional chapters per the DM.
All is revealed!
@Maneki
Ouch, hehehe!!
@WildBoar
What’s exciting is the sugar coated
almond, Lacey, is now spilling salty
secrets, confirming our long held
beliefs. Read JennS articles.
Thank you for the Kraken Wow !
Would it be terrible to imagine especially if the #6 #6w have the children( hopefully there are none) That maybe in crazy retaliation by #6w there will be news of a tragic death in their household soon?
#6w unhinged narc reaction for revenge sympathy /attention ?
Maybe news of a tragic cot death ( no baby didnt happen hopefully) or an infant accident tbat was untrue as no Archie perhaps?or an overdose that didn't result in death #6 ?
Announced on either the 21st tomorrow or on the 1st July
If #6 attends the unveiling of the Diana statue alone could #6w spring this on #6 .
No planbed baby photo release no papwalk with kids ..Something sensational to distract hugely
There was talk on tumblr of a possible stillbirth announcement by 6w maybe that was thwarted so then the surprise birth announcement naming .
Maybe anything is possible now if #6w is maniacally spiralling out of control. .
Yes, it's all just as I feared, almost from the very start.
Wasn't it reported that Catherine had had enough of H coming back drunk to KP & frightening George?
@JennS, thank you for The Times article.
It looks like this is one of the 12 extra chapters in his already released book Battle Of the Brothers.
Finally, we are getting some positive moves from the royal family. I recall that Lacey mentioned that his draft was sent back unopened with a note from KP that it does not deal with writers or something to that effect. But there is a change now. The royal family have finally allowed some insiders to speak to Lacey, among them a close friend of William and a KP insider.
This chapter about the division of the household is well-written and has contributions from royal insiders. So, this is how they will fight back.
I do wish they had chosen another author like Tom Bower instead who has a book coming out about them. Lacey, imo cannot be trusted. He was clearly on the Harkles side earlier on to show his anger at the Cambridge when they refused to cooperate with his book. He is also advisor for The Crown. Then again, perhaps it was wise to choose Lacey as he can influence the way The Crown is depicted. It is a double-edged sword.
Why did they allow this marriage to go ahead when the sh*t was already hitting the fan. I really do think this needs to be explained.
It should have been a private small ceremony and not involved taxpayers money.
Eugenie had just got married not Maggot and Mole, they left the wedding reception early so they could prepare for their Australian royal tour. 🤗
Mole had the royal family over a barrel with racist claims....that’s why they were allowed to marry, they knew Maggot was totally unsuitable as a royal. 🥴
My sense is however that this will enrage her so much, she will play a crazy, awful card soon. That worries me'
I feel this too. Hopefully it will be lies to cover lies
Victim Sussexes narrative to live on in the series causing repercussions for the BRF image for years, as has the Diana story has endured being a one sided story of victim hood.. What do you Nutties think?
@D1
They’d been married for almost
5 months when they embarked
on their OZ tour.
Megthuselah had already announced,
by gapecoat, that she was with cushion,
at Eugenie’s wedding.
All downhill from there!!
Recollections may vary, but, the tour
was a sham from the start.
They treated it like a second honeymoon,
exclusive, inappropriate, and totally
embarrassing.
Prince Andrew, hey, don’t shoot the
messenger, was sent over shortly
afterwards to apologise.
Says it all!
So can we can gather that the bullying started before they were married?
Would you not tread carefully if you the newbie?
M had the brashness, drive and ambition to invade H's aristo space. The massive confidence to come out of nowhere to hook a British Prince. She fancied herself as a workaholic type who was going to update the RF, update the lazy slackers of the RF. All this easily translated into acting hyper (she is a manic-depressive) and being a bully to her underlings.
Yeah, 99% of the newly married into a European royal family will tread lightly. At least for the first few years. Then they will act full royal while not bullying their staff. Who are only doing their jobs to coordinate her duties, her public appearances. To make her look good. It is stupid to bully your enablers. Counter productive. With enough bullying they will eventually sabotage, gossip, leak to reporters and squeal on you.
"They had only been married a couple of days when they went to Australia."
Why did they allow this marriage to go ahead when the sh*t was already hitting the fan. I really do think this needs to be explained."
That's not true. They married in May and went to Australia in October. Eugenie had only been married a few days when they went. But M was already pregnant (supposedly) and they'd been married 5 months, not a couple of days. Also supposedly that tour had already been planned for Harry (re: Invictus I think.)
Imo, there will be no tragic death for the kids - if they are fake, you need to produce a body. It is not so easy to pass off a death of a non-existent person. If there is a real child, she would not be so dumb as to cause it's death - she would be found out.
However, to cause Harry death is far easier and highly beneficial to her. She has already exposed him as a mentally unstable and tortured soul. He has admitted to using drugs and being an alcoholic. He has anger issues and it would be easy for her to add in physical violence etc. His death spells freedom from the idiot, more money than she had ever dreamed of and a link forever to the royal family.

I’m guessing the BRF released this information to Robert Lacey as he is the writer of The Crown series and William doesn’t want the
Victim Sussexes narrative to live on in the series causing repercussions for the BRF image for years, as has the Diana story has endured being a one sided story of victim hood.. What do you Nutties think?"
When you put it this way, yes, Robert Lacey is the correct person to work with.
I never once imagined that she was as deranged as she has proved to be - I couldn't imagine anyone that crazy being allowed near the RF.
Yet the race-card was her copper-bottomed protection - as has been observed here several times before now, she would have been given the bum's rush, pdq, had she been white.
"Wasn't it reported that Catherine had had enough of H coming back drunk to KP & frightening George?"
I have heard that Harry was drunk around "the children" but that doesn't make a ton of sense to me.
W&K lived at Anmer Hall until the autumn of 2017 (a few months before Harry got engaged.) I know they stayed at KP if they had engagements in London (like the Obamas) but 95+% of the time they were in Norfolk. And especially if they only had George. Prior to 2015 when Charlotte was born just how much wax Harry around anyway? He was still in the military wasn't he?

I was thinking more of
a Nuttie anthem?
Lacey, imo cannot be trusted. He was clearly on the Harkles side earlier on to show his anger at the Cambridge when they refused to cooperate with his book.

Maybe that's why his amended book is in the news now, if he was a sycophant (in the beginning), the 6s can't claim he's biased.

I still can’t get over the lack
of Harry with Wills kids photos?
Sorry about that, I got myself mixed up. I meant a couple of months after.
Knew it was after Eugenies wedding..
I've been copying and cutting bits of the article plus my thoughts... seems I cut a bit too much away before posting.
"All this easily translated into acting hyper (she is a manic-depressive) and being a bully to her underlings."
While it's risky to diagnose based on press report/photographs, I see no evidence Meghan has bipolar disorder. I can think of no manic phases we've seen ("hyper" ≠ manic) or even real hypomania. We've never seen actual pressured speech (interrupting, yes, but that's just rudeness) and while we talk about her "word salad" it's not really psychiatric word salad but vague woke wanderings.
Her distractibility looks like more of a lack of discipline to follow through than the immediate inability to stay on track due to acute mania. And while it was reported she was an early riser, we don't have (that I know of) any evidence to suggest she wasn't sleeping somewhat normal amounts during those periods. Finally, her grandiosity can easily be explained in other ways.
And I've not really seen evidence of true depressive periods either. I know it was reported she would take to her bed for days with wine when she failed at an audition but that's not bipolar depression.
I just don't see it.

Agree. But that makes me think he wasn't around them, drunk or sober. The kids were in Norfolk, Harry wasn't. And now we know he probably did resent George from the start.....and he skipped Charlotte's christening for a personal trip...

Her agenda was obvious, from
the start.
Keep faith, don’t give up.

watch out megs!!
Claim he decided to join L Ron Hubbard's organisation so he secretly packed his little rucksack and toddled off at dead of night to become a valued member of the crew of their ship? He left a 3-page farewell letter in exquisite half uncials, beautifully illuminated, saying he hoped that Mom & Pop would see the light and come and join him.
@lizzie
I wouldn’t try to classify her,
she’s Just bad, and mad.
Harry was miffed, being pipped,
By George, he got it!!
eh, WildBoar 😉
Megs is manic at times. We can see this. She keeps well hid from the public and whatever friends she has in her depressive phase. So we can know nothing about this phase, though Hapless has seen it.
Yes, just a theory of mine that she is bipolar aka manic depressive. Mid range variety of it. Not the kind that lands you in the loony bin (USA usage), gets you sectioned (UK usage).
Ah Puds, you’re a darling 🥰
