@LavenderLady,

It just proves how different circumstances in a child's life can cause something as simple as a song, (although this was a weird one. lol) to affect them quite differently at that particular time! 😉

Goodnight :)

@Miggy,
So true! Have a good night🙂💙

I don't think the personal assistant looks like Harry. But it would be just like a narc to hire employees who look like his/her significant other.

But I agree that she had a ton of photos looking at the camera which didn't make her final "curated" submission.
SwampWoman said…
Looks like I'm coming in when everybody else is going out. Or maybe y'all saw me peeping through the door, and y'all ran screaming for the exits.

*Maybe* she's perp, er, I mean PAP walking because Harry is visiting his family quietly for Christmas while groveling and begging for divorce money.



Enbrethiliel said…
I'm personally surprised that she doesn't pap walk more often. Maybe this is the first time in a long time that she was able to merch something.

I thought this was interesting:

-----
Every time I do a reading on MM, I get this exact word, which I’ve shared with you before: “frantic”. The onlooker in the quote from the DM here uses the same word to describe MM’s shopping. I don’t think this is a one-off. I think this is her core problem. It’s also one of the reasons why she has trouble with the staff. She changes her mind too often and is too impatient.
Anyway, I just wanted to share because I thought it was interesting that someone who was actually around her picked up on the same energy I did.

"There was a franticness to her shopping, like she was just itching to get out and be somewhat normal," says an onlooker, "even if it was just for an hour".
-----

https://countesscuriosity.tumblr.com/

By the way,I don't think she was there for as long as an hour.

Oh, and the guy with her looks very much like the guy standing like a bodyguard behind her when she did that ridiculous stuff on the Ellen show. Maybe he's her go-to guy for whatever she needs!

And, the huge amount of security for the New York visit was a grandiose display. Anyone wishing harm is more likely to strike in Montecito than in New York, and there were NO crowds so no crowd control required either. Or is she going to put the blame on Harry wanting full-on security all the time?
Gracie said…
@Barbara from Montreal, I remember reading about a run in that Thomas had with Peg when she was in high school. It was something along the lines of that he had volunteered to do the lighting for a school play and when she didn’t get the part she was after she expected him to back out of volunteering himself. When he refused, she got mad at him and moved in with Doria. So he must have had some idea of what she was capable of even when she was younger. Maybe he was in some kind of denial though, it would be heartbreaking to have the child you loved and doted on turn on you for doing the right thing.

I love this story

Thrifty bride goes viral after revealing she bought her wedding dress for just $3 at GOODWILL - as fans say the budget design makes her look just like Meghan Markle

Actually I like the 3$ version way better than Pegs.

Teasmade said…
@Gracie: That woman is absolutely beautiful, especially her skin, AND she looks nothing like * AND her name is Rachel, haha.

Okay, maybe her long dark hair, which she no doubt comes by honestly.

I just skimmed the comments in the DM, and they're just what you'd expect.

The $5 dress is a winner too!

SwampWoman - well we do speculate everytime she pap walks its when he is not in town. Maybe he headed back to London for begging cash. Maybe she doesnt know where or where he went. When he leaves, she usually alerts someone and we get a pap pic at an airport. Curious

We will see a big splash on Christmas when the family does the Church walk. She will just be seething.

Is HM becoming alarmed spare and that thing he married may come a bit too close to her throne?

I am very happy to read this.👍
Sandie said…
@Maisie

Could not find the article you reference (paywalls and different issues of Tatler, e.g. UK and US editions). People consult various 'psychics' for a variety of reasons, and various psychics have varying levels of success in foreseeing the future or 'seeing' hidden secrets in the past and present. Among tarot readers, the two biggest mistakes I see are not taking into account personal prejudices and biases, and a superficial/mechanical method of divining meaning.

I see that Princess Twat's PR has veen busy with a 'rehabilitate image' campaign. (She is not a bully, but just has an American work ethic that those lazy Brits do not understand; From her time on Suits, living in Canada, people remember her as fun, fun, fun, warm, charming, smart, hard working, talented actress ...; Future president!; Of course, the Cambridges will visit them in 2022; And, as always, 2022 is going to see global success for her.) I am sure that there is more in the PR drivel that I missed.

It is all rather pathetic.

Sandie said…
Maybe OT, combined with an obviously huge interest in the supposed occupants of Mudslide Manor, but current news items in South Africa had me thinking ... the reckoning is coming ...

In the news in South Africa:

A corrupt ex-President was given a 15-month jail sentence for contempt of court (Constitutional Court) about 2 years' ago. He went straight to the prison hospital and was released on medical parole after just over 2 weeks. A High Court has just ruled that the parole was invalid and he must go back to prison. Could TBW still be charged with perjury in the future?

Talking about perjury, a very powerful cabinet member during the time of the corrupt president is in court losing a fight against a perjury charge (also from a few years ago and in the Constitutional Court). Is there a statute of limitations for perjury charges?

Is TBW going to be like Prince Andrew ... tainted by the label of perjurer in the media (her, not Andrew), confident she has gotten away with it, and then the political/judicial climate changes and she suddenly finds herself in a huge amount of trouble?

Is Daily Mail going to go for the jugular and uncover more evidence in arguments about compensation for her court victory, or does the case go back to Warby to unilaterally give the Duchess whatever she asks for?
Sandie said…
The headline for the article is misleading, as the article reveals Hewitt to be very charming ...

PIERS MORGAN has revealed a "disturbing" text message he received from his wife, Celia Walden, when she interviewed "royal love rat" James Hewitt.
By LEAH STANFIELD
11:37, Sun, Dec 19, 2021 | UPDATED: 11:38, Sun, Dec 19, 2021

... Writing in his column for the Mail on Sunday under the heading “most disturbing text message”, Piers said: “Before we got married, my girlfriend Celia flew to Marbella to interview royal love rat James Hewitt.

“To convey some idea of my history with the old bounder, I once sent a knight on a white charger down to arrest him on behalf of the Daily Mirror for infringing the 1534 Act of Treason by having an affair with the wife of a future king.

“‘We’re on to our second bottle of Chablis," read her text at 3pm.

“‘Getting on really well, and he’s just plucked a rose from the table arrangement, handed it to me and said, ‘Is it just me, or are flowers really rather sexual?’” ...

https://www.express.co.uk/celebrity-news/1538348/piers-morgan-wife-celia-walden-text-james-hewitt-interview-news-latest

For those who are still in doubt, the article details why Hewitt cannot possibly be Harry's father.

Sandie said…
Rumour on social media ... started by someone in the SussexSquad ... is that the Christmas Card is going to be timed for release on Christmas Eve and will include Lilli.

The aim is to dominate the headlines and front pages, and ...
* Overshadow Catherine's Christmas Carol concert.
* Overshadow any version of the senior royals attending church at Sandringham.

Just a rumour started by one of the crazies, but it sounds a lot like the sort of thing they would do.
Sandie said…
I forgot an item ...

* The Queen's speech on Christmas Day.

Another podcast to be expected for Christmas as well.

What are the chances that this PR strategy will blow up in their faces?

Maisie said…
@Sandi you are right. The Tattler issue is the International, US and Canada print edition. It is pathetic to link her to Diana and * might have taken a consultation on a lark, but the whole thing feels made up. This SS input is for the international audience interested in GB…AS IF she is still relevant there.
Sandie said…
@Girl With A Hat

The Kardashians, some strange woman called Katie Price ... they get heaps of coverage in the tabloids, but never (or hardly ever) the front page. They are 'filler' entertainment. Is that where the Harkles are headed?

I find it incredibly sad that a guy with the track record he had has been reduced to this. On a 'spiritual' level, she had an opportunity to change herself from living a life of self service and self glorification and pleasure and desires fulfilled to one of service to others and honouring and respecting others. I don't blame her for failing (that is a tough change to make) but she has acquired a lot of bad karma by taking him down as well (and hurting a lot of people in doing so).

@Mimi

I agree completely. H is on record, from a video in his Afghan days, of saying how much he disliked/?hated England.

She suited his purposes as much as he did hers. H hadn't the guts to walk away on his own.
Sandie said…
At risk of derailing thread as people roll their eyes, I was contemplating karma.

She, in reality, lost nothing and gained everything. He lost just about everything.

Karma has been instant with him, perhaps because he started from a place of life-long privilege and immense guidance, support, and opportunity to live a life of honour, duty, service. It was a choice he made, but I have no doubt there was much manipulation and influence from her. She targeted his weaknesses; a wife like Catherine would have helped him not to give in to his weaknesses.

In her narc mind, she has lost a lot, but the reality is different. She gained global fame, huge wealth, a compliant husband, a major wedding, open doors and global plaforms ... but, there is no gratitude or sense of obligation because that is not how she sees it.

HRH: she was not entitled to have that or use it as she wishes, but I am sure the grudge is huge and lasting for something taken away from her that she believes she is entitled to.

SussexRoyal: a brand for them as working royals so the brand and the social media account was not theirs to take away and use as they wish; see above for her entitlement and grudge.

Media coverage: scant but positive before she met him; huge and still positive after she met him; increasingly critical and now even mocking, caused by her own behaviour (plus the inevitable crazies online). Not how she sees it and believes she was uber famous and adored before she met him and 'enemies' are trying to destroy her.

Wealth: she had none and now is living the billionaire lifestyle, for which she is not paying. Her entitlement feeds the grudge about the castle she didn't get, the jewels she was denied access to, the state dinners and high-profile tours ...

I am sure you could all add to the list of what she gained, and what she holds grudges about losing (which in reality she was not entitled to).

So, in her mind, she is an innocent who is being punished (you could say that is her karma), but, from the outside looking in, specially in comparison with him, karma is still waiting for her.

But, there are many who believe that it is all his doing (she established this narrative by the time of the Oprah interview, and would use it in the event of a divorce and custody battle), and he simply found a willing accomplice, or someone easily dominated/manipulated, in her.
Sandie said…
God help us ... Her 'staff' are sending out copies of The Bench as festive season gifts.

She really does not see how very bad that book is.

She bought hundreds of thousands of copies, cleverly bought through some third party, so that she could be on that/a bestseller list.

Sweetie, you don't need enemies because you are doing very well in making a fool of yourself regularly, for the entertainment of everyone because now you are globally famous!

In 2009, the prince visited New York. The visit was jam packed:

Harlem school
Obstacle course race
911 Memorial
Polo match
Veterans' Affairs Medical Centre
Formally named a British Memorial Garden

It is a long article with all the details, plus photos of a happy, engaged prince, which I can't access from this link:

The New York visit with the wife was modelled on this very successful visit?

If it was to try to link to an actual royal tour, the media failed to do this. Huge lost opportunity!

In the Metro:

Piers Morgan has thanked Meghan Markle after his Good Morning Britain rant topped Ofcom’s complaints list for 2021.

The outspoken broadcaster’s comments about Oprah Winfrey’s interview with Prince Harry and Meghan Markle sparked 54,595 complaints to the watchdog, making it the most-complained about moment of the year.

Responding to the news, Piers tweeted: ‘Delighted to have perpetrated the most complained about moment on UK TV for 2021…. especially because every single one of the absurd complaints was rejected. Thanks Princess Pinocchio!’ (my emphasis).🤥😁

HappyDays said…
Here’s some food for thought that is long overdue. HMTQ is said to have asked William to stop his family flying in helicopters and she asked them to not all fly together anymore to protect the line of succession in the event of an air tragedy.

It’s about time this happened. As Meghan is quoted as saying that she and Harry “are just one plane crash away from the throne.”

Imagine the double horror of the Cambridge family being wiped out in a plane or helicopter crash abd then Harry becoming next in line to the throne with Meghan as his queen consort?

It would most likely mean the end of the monarchy. I do not believe the citizens of the UK or the Commonwealth would put up with an imbecile like Harry being King as his maniacal wife pulls all the levers of the monarchy through her compliant puppet of a husband. Corruption would rule.

God help us ... Her 'staff' are sending out copies of The Bench as festive season gifts.

At my house, Christmas gifts are starting to arrive from friends and family. We're delighted at how creative some people are at making simple things look extra charming -- or how others' personalities really come out in their gift choices.

If we got a copy of The B---- (I'm not typing out the title any more than I'm typing out the authoress's name), that would definitely fall in the second category . . . except that we wouldn't be delighted . . . and we'd need another word for "personality" for what would be coming across. This is both incredibly predictable and incredibly cheap.

Even a gift basket of oatmilk lattes would have been a lot classier than this! * could even put an "As seen on Oprah" sticker on them, for that 90s nostalgia, and it would still be a better idea!

I'm still hoping that someone finds a personally inscribed copy of The B---- in an LA thrift shop, going for 5¢. But she may not have inscribed them this time around. Wow, it's getting worse and worse, isn't it?
@Magatha -

`Cystitis' - Brilliant!

Knock(ing} shop? It reminds me of a Punch cartoon of a streetwalker long past her her best, accosting a seedy old geezer:

`OK, so it wouldn't be a good time - but at least it'd take the weight off your feet for a bit...'

I can't even imagine her being offered a job on a late-night Adult TV channel... Wrong shape altogether.

https://thehill.com/policy/international/europe/586630-queen-cancels-british-royal-familys-christmas-gathering-report

As I predicted in this space, the Queen has canceled the royal Christmas festivities at Sandringham for the second year in a row. She’ll be staying at Windsor. It was the only decision possible, given what’s going on with Omicron. I also have canceled plans to travel to family for the second Christmas running. My mother is 10 years younger than the Queen and has has her booster—But a visit home and tells me traveling across state on a coach, And that’s just too much proximity to humanity in the best of times, which this is not. I’m healthy at the moment but the rate of vaccination in my county hovers at 30%, and I work with the public.

I am sad for her Majesty, Spending her first Christmas without Philip in isolation, though family members are slated to visit Windsor following all protocols. But in this she is like millions of other vulnerable seniors around the world. I can’t help thinking that most of the family is probably relieved to not have to go through the Royal Christmas tableau, instead of being able to stay with their own family bubble and celebrate their way—This will be the first Christmas for baby August and baby Sienna. The Cambridges can enjoy their Christmas at home without protocol. Best of all, the Montesh*tshow Is far away, and the thing has had the wind taken out of its sails now that whatever pathetic display it was planning to “upstage” the Christmas walk and Catherine’s fabulous coat will now not be competing with anything except the voices under its matted weave.

Happy Christmas, everyone!

@Embre,

I imagine that at least several rooms of Mudslide Towers are Packed with unsold copies of Its magnum Opus stacked up to the ceiling. Don’t know what the print run would’ve been—20,000? A safe bet, considering its status as a royal Duchess, with a Caldecott Honor winner illustrating. The Stench had done Christian Robinson’s career no favors. But there must be at least 17,093 copies remaining, Especially if the stores have returned unsold stock to make room for the latest Rachael Ray holiday cookbook. * will be offloading those for the next decade. Particularly if she paid her self to have them published!

@HIkari

The B---- covers her for one Christmas, one Easter, one Mother's Day, and perhaps one more Father's Day. I'd love to hear the excuse she'll use for going a second year in a row. (Nostalgia? After a mere two years? Vintage inscribed copies that are priceless? No comment. A third "pregnancy" to make them relevant again? As if they were ever relevant . . . I could go on all day.)

What might actually be lovely, for Easter, is repurposing the pages to make paper flowers. The hydrangeas and the dahlias are especially striking -- and Christian Robinson's palette would be nice for spring. They'd be a temporary ornament or decoration for the recievers, but people might actually appreciate getting to dispose of them, with no hard feelings, after a month or two. (* could include a card to remind the receivers to recycle them. Plus an egg or two from her coop!) But all this would take humility and a sense of humor that we all know * doesn't have.

Mel said…
Gotta wonder, given her history of jumping in at the last minute to take all the credit, if she skipped to rehearsals/planning, and just jumped on stage at the last second and inserted herself into the middle in order to present herself as the star of the show.

Thus, no one wanting to acknowledge her, and she doesn't even have a microphone. Backstage people must have had enough of her, too.

The others seemed pretty determined not to let her be the 'star'. To them this was a collaboration, a team project, there was no star of the show'.
Hikari said…
@Me

If that USO tour had a headliner, it was Carrie Underwood, who had done several of these tours by that point and who Functioned as one of the organizers. It was her involvement that attracted a lot of the other celebrities to participate. Note however that multiple Grammy winning American idol winner Carrie Underwood did not plunk herself in the center of the stage. Kudos to Gina Krueger Cowne for being great at her job. How many strings did she have to pull and favors to call in in order to get a grasping talentless nobody like Farkle onstage with Carrie Underwood? Notice she didn’t even know 10 of the words to White Christmas and didn’t even pretend to sing for most of the song. Even in Siberia being treated as toxic waste, she continues to try and pot and claw at the people on either side of her, do her bent over fake laughing, and gesticulate with her arms like she’s on Deal. What a piece of barely human trash she is. And that travesty was seven years ago. What we see with Farkle is all we’re ever going to get .

@Design Doctor ...

"Is that part of the basis for narcissism (NPD)? Rejected by the normal individuals so you have to pretend to yourself, i.e., "act as if" you are superior?"

Especially recent studies have challenged some of the accepted beliefs about narcissism, especially that all narcs are insecure 'underneath'.

Some of my amateur conlusions about her:
* She really does believe the hype that she gets her PR to put out for her, and is not knowingly covering up insecurity. (There are so many examples, but here is just one ... successful Hollywood actress. She had no success in Hollywood at all, not even as a jobbing actress.)
* She has severe body perception problems, and when she looks in the mirror, she sees an image she has created of fabulousness (perhaps the model she saw wearing the garment in the online catalogue) and not her actual image.
* She actually does believe she is superior and entitled to whatever she wants.
* Just about every video from her childhood, teen years and early adult years show a sulky/bossy/spoilt/preening/love bombing brat.
* She never sees herself as the problem. That is always the other person. She does not see herself shunned by the others on the stage but believes that they 'rejected' her because she is so fabulous that she made them look bad. The others were afraid to be compared with someone of dazzling beauty and exceptional accomplishments and super intelligence.
* There are a few videos showing people pointedly turning away from her/ignoring her during her time as a royal. She may show annoyance, and then latches on to husband, and sometimes drags him away. This is because she has no use for any occasion where she cannot be centre of attention and given the adulation and attention she thinks she deserves. She feels no shame, embarrassment, akwardness.
* I don't know if this was conscious ... Harry was the popular prince that everyone wanted to meet and talk to. Even when she pushed in front of him, as soon as they had greeted her, most people turned to him. She latched on to him to steal his limelight.

Unfortunately, marrying royalty put her on another level and any moderation of her behaviour that she learned to keep her job on Suits, get work modelling for a department store in Toronto, get appearances on TV (though, those were mostly one-off) ... all out the window.

Just my amateur opinion I have formed of her.

In a way, I do feel sorry for her. She is missing out on lots of human experiences that she is not capable of ever having (the tenderness of empathy, unconditional love gven and received, learning through human stuff like failure and humiliation ...).

A must-read for the biggest laugh of the day.

Well, I'll save you some trouble, here's the good part: * may be asked to testify in the Virginia Roberts Giuffre lawsuit against Prince Andrew and "She is somebody we can count on to tell the truth,” according to her (Virginia's) attorney.

Oh, you poor man. Please keep looking for others who can testify instead.
Maneki Neko said…
@Teasmade

TBW wouldn't know the truth if it hit her in the face 😁

What if find concerning is this: "She may have picked up “important knowledge,” David Boies, the star lawyer representing Virginia Roberts Giuffre, told The Daily Beast."

What important knowledge, I wonder?
Teasmade said…
@Maneki: The ports of call for the yachts?
Hikari said…
Maneki,

Andrew has always treated Farkle like radioactive waste, Even before she had time to insult both of his daughters and derail E’s wedding reception. I would bet everything I’ve got that PA and Farkle met on a yacht or at one of Epstein’s parties before she crossed paths with HazNowt. Farkle was too long in the tooth even 10 years ago to appeal, but What do you want to bet she threw herself at Andrew—the Prince Diana almost wound up with instead? After all, Andrew is technically single even though Sarah has been his domestic partner ever since they got divorced. They’ve spent more time together since they got divorced then they did when they were married. Not that she had clue who he was…(right).

Andrew’s reaction to Farkle has got to be due to more than her outranking his daughters when clinging to HazNowt’s arm. Andrews either had carnal knowledge, or knows someone who has dipped his wick before Haz got in line. I can feel it.
Enbrethiliel said…
If Andrew had had sex with *, who would be more damaged by the revelation?

Three years ago, I would have said Andrew. He was still in reasonably good standing, and although no one ever imagined he remained celibate after his divorce, cavorting with a woman young enough to be his daughter wouldn't have been a good look.

Today, however, he doesn't have much left to lose. He is a disgrace who has lost the only life he has ever known and whose daughters will have no royal destiny. He probably blames his brother and has some resentment toward his nephew William as well. Revealing that he had slept with * at a "party" designed for wealthy old men to meet eager young starlets, he would hurt not just the starlet who insulted (and is possibly blackmailing) his daughters but also his appearance-conscious brother. (I think Prince William would be totally above this fray.)

Do it, Andrew! It will be the last great contribution you make to the world!
Sandie said…
@Girl With A Hat

You had a post that has disappeared. It was so late that I wanted to respond today. I also think her brain is wired differently from what we could consider 'normal'. If not, she must be hiding severe discomfort about the way she looks and what she says, but body language 'readers' have not seen any sign of that. (She shows evey sign of thinking she looks fabulous all the time.) As for gift giving, she only thinks of herself and her image, and to give great gifts, one must 100% be thinking of the other person. She can't do that. (But giving an inappropriate gift can happen to the best of us at times, just not all the time.)

I must admit that I do not know much about love, but my assumption is that love does not require one to dishonour and use and hurt family, friends and country, as he has done. I find it quite disturbing that rabid Sussex supporters hold onto the 'greatest love story' narrative.
At the start of all this, I used to follow Jersey Deanne on the topic of *. JD had no hesitation in making allegations about *'s time at sea, including her hourly rate. Among other salacious `hints' JD mentioned the possibility of her encountering Andrew aboard ship, bouncing around on the briny, so to speak - all `speculation' of course...

Seeing A's thunderous expression when both were at the same public events in the early days, I could believe it. Just an opinion.
Maneki Neko said…
@Teasmade and @Hikari

I certainly did think of yachts but then wouldn't * be outing herself if she appeared as a witness? Unless she claims she was there innocently on holiday and totally unaware of anything dodgy.
Be it as it may, it is quite possible she and PA met. And we know H's friend Skippy allegedly did 'dip his wick before Haz got in line'.

@Enbrethiliel

I think Virginia Roberts Giuffre's lawyer's comment seems to imply that * could help him so if Andrew did have sex with *, I don't think she'd reveal the fact (but wish A did if that's the case). I know * has done daft things but I don't think she would be so daft as to self destruct. Although on reflection...

Maneki Neko said…
* giving evidence in PA/VG's case is in the papers. The commenters in the DM are all laughing at the idea.

The Star says:
"The lawyer argued she is “in a position to perhaps have seen what he did, and perhaps if not to have seen what he did to have heard people talk about it”.

Because of her past association with him, she may very well have important knowledge, and will certainly have some knowledge,” he said." (my emphasis).

First of all it's 'perhaps' and if * didn't see anything but may have heard something, this is hearsay. Is this admissible in American law?
Secondly, what is/could be her past association with PA? Apart from from a very possible nautical one, that is.

I agree 💯. I think this has something to do with her and spare being given a long leash...
Enbrethiliel said…
That Prince Andrew and * are even being linked in this way is pretty incredible! * took great pains to make her last word on the subject that she was "horrified" by Andrew's comments on sex in his last ill-advised interview. And although it was clearly all PR at the time, it still kind of fit her cultivated pro-women image, so it stuck.

Someone must have leaked something and I am here for it!
JHanoi said…
hearsay is not admissable in the US (as far as i know, but things change quickly these days) so either the lawyer is just throwing out a lot of BS to see what sticks, or he’s heard yachting rumors as well and thinks there’s a possibiilty they met somewhre prior to her intro to JH.

Hes also probably just looking to keep the lawsuitt in the headlinees so the media keeps appling pressure on JA….wants to taint the jury or get a settlement. in my opinion, JA can’t settle now without looking guilty and having every other Tom Dick and Harry make claims and sue him.
JHanoi said…
oops its not JA it’s PA!…
Sandie said…
Virginia Roberts Giuffre's lawyer sounds rather batty. He states that someone who has just committed perjury will tell the truth! (IMO they are going after Andrew for a big payout, and were probably hoping he would settle to avoid a trial, as Epstein did. Virginia has already received two payouts from Epstein/Maxwell. She has not been called as a witness for Maxwell's trial because she is an unreliable witness, and a fantasist at best.)

Andrew ended his association with Epstein before Harry brought Meghan into the royal family. The idea that Meghan would have seen or heard anything that could be used as evidence against Andrew is absurd, and there is no evidence of any connection in the past. Would she make a false statement for a big payout? Surely she is not that stupid?

On the other hand, would either or both of the Sussexes make a statement to distance herself from the Guiffre trial? Nope. If these false statements smear the family and institution that would not bow to them and give them all that they were entitled to, all the better. They never have any interest in defending others.

And that crazy narc is too stupid to see what the lawyer is saying about her by implication (hence the revival of the fake yachting stories, and especially the fantasist claim about a connection between Meghan and Andrew).

As for her being a yacht girl ... There is one photo of her in a yacht with a group of girlfriends with not a man in sight. The rumour/accusation makes no sense and does not fit with her MO.

Andrew has been photographed on various yachts, including being surrounded with young women, some topless. None of the women were related to or in a relationship with any of the men on the yacht, so that is compelling evidence of a 'yachting' situation.

But, Sarah does keep gushing about the Sussexes and defending Meghan. I wonder why? (Tinfoil hat moment!)
JHanoi said…
the “truth” telling Duchess (TBW) was the funniest part of that lawyers satatement. hahaha

kinda makes me wonder if he is grasping at straws and just throwing headline making distractions out there because the Gruiffe woman was not called as a witness in the Ghislane trial.
apparently the Gruiffe woman has had a lot of inconsistencies in her story over the years and the prosecution thought it would hurt their cae.
Elskainga said…
A Merry Christmas to all Nutties. Wishing you good health and joy in the New Year.

If * says anything about Prince Andrew and Guiffre, she will cut off all communication with Eugenia, Harry’s only safety line to the BRF. He will only be able to call the grey suits to get a message to PC or PW.

Also, as * is a known perjurer in the British courts, her word is worth zilch. Plus, hearsay is inadmissible in US courts. Guiffre’s lawyer is just keeping the RF on their toes.

Btw, I watched a show on Ms Guiffre and she was actively recruiting underage girls for Epstein and getting paid for said work. She could be liable for $*x trafficking!
Enbrethiliel said…
It is ridiculous that any lawyer would think that a perjurer would tell the truth, but it really raises my eyebrows that * is being connected to this at all. People who have had her number from the beginning know that her past is extremely sketchy, but BP did such a great job covering it up that we look like crazy conspiracy theorists. That * is being linked with Prince Andrew again is pretty damaging for her -- and I think there's reason to wonder if this was a deliberate shot across the bow.
Snarkyatherbest said…
So if she testifies "truthfully" that she saw PA at a party for which she was a "guest" She may confirm the VG rumors but she wont look well. PA can bring up her perjured testimony. Her connections to Epstein will fuel more rumors, people may believe her to be a liar since she has a pattern of dissing the family.

It is curious that this is coming back up now. VG's lawyer is a pitbull which has won some rumored high dollar settlements with other men but not PA. David Boies wants this one because PA is the one that got away. But why now. Was Boies given new info from someone/somewhere? did someone connected to the BRF several times removed give this to Boies. Smoke her out like she is helping take PA down but help further ruin her reputation as vindictive and not trustworthy. Waste more money on lawyers for a deposition. Her fanciful take down of PA in testimony actually resurrect PA making him look like a victim of vindictive people. Very curious

Also there are rumors reported in the "press" that Ghisalane Maxwell may be willing to talk if she loses the trial in an effort to reduce the sentence.

As for the Snake being `horrified' well, she would say that, wouldn't she?
Elsbeth1847 said…
If VG is a little unreliable in her stories (variants), I'm not understanding why PA's team is not making more about this?

And, why isn't more being made about the idea of she was supporting sex trafficking by finding girls and that she needs to be charged? as in next in line with GM? Wouldn't that part coming out do a lot of damage to her story(ies)?
Teasmade said…
@Elsbeth (and all of us writing about this, really): Not to get too far off topic and IANAL (I am not a lawyer) but I would think that VG's "side" would be prepared to say that it's usual practice to force sex trafficking victims to select and groom the next generation of girls; that this was not a choice on her part. They are usually coerced by beatings, threats to their families, and whatever else the pimps can think of to force compliance. So I would *think* that they would consider this tactic carefully before using it.

Of course, it'd be she said/she said. It's not the kind of crime where evidence is left to be uncovered. And if it were, all that evidence on that island was destroyed before the investigators got there.

Christmas plans in disarray as Princess Anne's husband, Sir Timothy Laurence, tests positive for Covid-19

Vice-Admiral Sir Timothy Laurence, husband to the Princess Royal, has tested positive for Covid-19 just days before Christmas.

According to the MailOnline, the 66-year-old retired naval officer is recovering at the couple’s Gatcombe Park residence.

The news means Princess Anne and Sir Tim Laurence will not join The Queen at Windsor Castle over the festive period.

RE:VG

Let's keep in mind the case in New Bedford, Mass back in the 80's, where a young woman of 21 was raped by a group of men in a bar-on a pool table. Those men were exonerated. She died tragically two years later not even reaching the age of 25.

The point is defence laywers will vilify a victim and bring everything out of the woodwork to make their point that "she asked for it".

This case is no different IMO. It's routine for defence teams to do this. PA has the best so...

I won't discuss this further. All I will say is this:
Jeffery Epstein...let that name sink in.

Ok back on track.

A short but very interesting video from Doctor Ramani:

Do narcissists know that their behaviour is unacceptable? Yes!

Does the information from Doctor Ramani explain the bullying of staff? Does she do this to her husband, or, with him, does she restrict herself to manipulation (I need protection from my husband ... look what they are doing/saying; I feel suicidal ...) and domination (I am so smart ...)?

That notorious incident was made into the film "The Accused" starring Jodie Foster and Kelly McGillis as her lawyer. Jodie won the first of her two Best Actress Oscars for this role, and it is utterly grueling. The rape scene feels shot in real time and it goes on and on. She burst all the blood vessels in her eyes from doing take after take of crying.

I was not aware that the real life victim had died so soon afterwards. A real tragedy.

*************

PA really can't be tainted any more than he already is, but will 2022 be the year the Kraken is finally released on Madam Lying Farkle? We want all the receipts--her yacht girl past; connections to Epstein; whether Andrew had carnal knowledge of his nephew's wife before the fact and/or could name names of other rich old geezers that passed her around like a party favor. More like she broke into their staterooms and assaulted them--no shrinking victimized flower is she. And then of course, all the tea on the provenance of the children . .er, "Children" and what kind of blackmail games she's been playing and to/with whom.

Andrew is a skeeze but if Farkle gave him the clap, I'd feel a tiny bit sorry for him.

I can imagine A being cheesed off that he was obliged to break up with Koo Stark over her being in the film `Emily' - and then that snake gets a free pass.

I think a lot of people in the BRF were put off that * got free pass after free pass. My initial focus was on the other married-ins, who all behaved as well as they could when they were new, only to see a double standard suddenly applied. And then I thought of the York Princesses, who had expected all their lives to be senior working royals, only to have their uncle (who might or might not have had a bone to pick with their father) shove them out. Say what you like about Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie, but either of them would have comported themselves with more dignity and a better work ethic than *. Finally, yes, I'm considering Prince Andrew's resentments. He may be a spoiled, petulant hedonist who deserves no one's pity . . . but he would be correct in this instance that * was allowed to fall way below obvious standards over and over again, with impunity. And that's just not right.
Enbrethiliel said…
@Teasmeade
Of course, it'd be she said/she said. It's not the kind of crime where evidence is left to be uncovered.

True! The only thing that would swing the balance is corroboration from witnesses.

I'm a little surprised that nobody could back up Prince Andrew's alibi about being at a pizza parlor. One would think his team would have tracked down any of the parents whose children were there or the manager at the time. Having an A+++ lister dropping by a children's party isn't something anyone ever forgets.

@LavenderLady
Someone out there is priming the pump. IMO.

If I were Giuffre, I'd be very concerned that my lawyer is talking about calling * as a witness. And not just because she's a known perjurer. A move like this only benefits Andrew. It will let him take down this case and his hated niece-in-law in a single blow.

The statement from Guiffre's lawyer makes no sense. But then I had a thought. Guiffre is after money. Guiffre is not a reliable witness (but the behaviour from the judge so far seems to indicate that, like judge in the Heard/Depp case and TBW's case, she will get a free pass on that and the defence will be shut down, as occurred with TBW).

They are trying to force Andrew to offer a huge payout to stop the trial. More importantly, they are trying to force the Queen to reach into her pocket and step in to stop the trial.

The supposed rape had happened years before anyone had heard of TBW, but, like the racist story, she can cause huge trouble with her manipulation and lies. Charles would not have witnessed anything (but threatning to drag the heir into court is very tacky) and neither would Sarah (but gosh she does compete with TBW all her interviews and magazine features). There is no testimony that any of them could give that would back up Guiffre's story.

This is a blackmail attempt.
Enbrethiliel said…
@Sandie

That's a very good take. Everyone knows that * is a bunion on the BRF's toe. I can see why they think hinting that she might take the stand would strike fear into the hearts of her in-laws.

I still think it's a clumsy move, though, as the BRF definitely has more dirt on her than she could ever have on *. In fact, it's a misstep that could potentially lead to a double win for Prince Andrew, as I theorized above.

Giuffre's lawyer may have just Markled his entire case.

The huge irony about Guiffre and her lawyer using the Monecito Madam to threaten/blackmail/extort a huge payout from the Queen is that it has revived all the fake rumours about her being a yacht girl, and the stories are even wilder this time around.

Do you think she gets it, or is she gloating in smugness in 'having power over' his dastardly family who would not crown her queen and worship at her feet and give her everything she wanted? Plus, the more she is able to separate him from his family, th bigger hold over him she has and her only means of having the billionnaire influencer lifestyle she wants.

Has she gone a bridge too far this time? He might be rather fond of the Yorks. Certainly they were very much part of his childhood, especially while Diana and Sarah were still friends. Memories of childhood with the Yorks would be associated with memories of his mother and this would subconsciously have a huge influence over how he regards them. I don't think she is bright enough to get it. If it is not about her, she has no interest.

Travalyst turned in their Financial Report for 2020-2021 w/ Companies House, which *puzzlingly* ends up with a Net balance of a measly £11538 and the report is labelled "unaudited" under a special excemption for "small companies" .

It means despite raising about £348k for their own underhanded purposes, they SPENT £336,5k giving no detailed accounts about it (because they claim to be a small company and not a charity).

You might be wondering, where did all the Travalyst funds go

It got - £300k (aprox) in Grants from The Royal Foundation

- udisclosed donation by Mattel for Harry's cameo

- undisclosed donation by Disney announced by Bob Iger (allegedly $3 mill)

- leftover Sussex Royal assets.

These funds which are KNOWN to have been funnelled into Travalyst are not listed in the only Financial Report available up to now (April 2020-December 2021)

Travalyst was originally marketed as a Non-Profit, yet to this date, it's not registered with the Charity Commission. © Baroness buck.

My conclusion is that Travelyst is a slush fund.

Her: posing, casual, rich, glamorous (lots of photoshopping on face)
Him: looking very happy; hippy look with bare feet and torn jeans
Archie: not looking at camera or either parent (why does he always look like he is trying to get away?); definitely a red head
Lili: laughing but looking at dad not mom

Both kids are very white.
Text is the same old PR, and note they use the terms Mama and Papa.

The person who posted the card says the photo was taken in Summer. Winter scene outside photoshopped in?

Overall looks like a publicity poster for a Hallmark movie or a cover for a romance novel.

A Quiet Interlude

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

As Time Passes and We Get Older

 I started thinking about how time passes when reading some of the articles about the birthday.  It was interesting to think about it from the different points of view.  Besides, it kind of fits as a follow up the last post (the whole saga of can the two brothers reunite). So there is the requisite article about how he will be getting all kinds of money willed to him from his great-grandmother.  There were stories about Princess Anne as trustee (and not allowing earliest access to it all).  Whether or not any or all of this is true (there was money for him and/or other kids) has been debated with claims she actually died owing money with the Queen paying the debts to avoid scandal.  Don't know but I seem to remember that royal estates are shrouded from the public so we may not (ever) know. However, strange things like assisting in a book after repeated denials have popped up in legal papers so nothing is ever really predicable.   We are also seeing more articles which not only talk

The Opening Act of New Adventures in Retail

 I keep thinking things will settle down to the lazy days of spring where the weather is gorgeous and there is a certain sense of peacefulness.  New flowers are coming out. increasing daylight so people can be outside/play and thinking gardening thoughts.  And life is quiet.  Calm. And then something happens like a comet shooting across the sky.  (Out of nowhere it arrives and then leaves almost as quickly.)   An update to a law suit.  Video of the website is released (but doesn't actually promote any specific product which can be purchased from the website).  A delay and then jam is given out (but to whom and possible more importantly - who did not make the list?).  Trophies almost fall (oops).  Information slips out like when the official date of beginning USA residency.  (now, isn't that interesting?) With them, it's always something in play or simmering just below the surface.  The diversity of the endeavors is really quite impressive.  This award, polo, speech, speech,
