Yes, finally. A picture of the new baby. And, a picture of a happy family.
Thoughts?
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.

Odd to have on the card that we aren't expecting to send you gifts because we made donations in your name.
I make donations in name of various family members but it is something we talk about and I don't put that in any sort of a card going out to others.
Looks like * put on some pounds as her thighs are bigger than Harry's.
Lili looks like Charlotte in the mouth area, like HM and has her parents nose. Archie is a doll ha ha no joke there he's super cute.
Kids are innocent no matter where they come from.
Nice card (Imma staying medium to high vibration).
Merry Christmas/ Happy Holidays everyone!
Same with Lillibucks. They are hiding her face to make it more convenient to substitute another child in the future.
There is no way that this Archie is the same child as the South African 6 month old Archie/Duck Duck Goose Archie who I believe were the same child.
It's a cute photo--or artwork based on a photo, I should say--although may I say that I'm old and think that torn jeans are idiotic. All these bare feet in photos are becoming a tired idea as well.
(And another dig at one-child families; they weren't a real one until they had two children, per *'s quote.)
L's right hand fingers are exceedingly long.
No way is this boy *any* of the little boys previously purported to be Archie. Head shapes don't change to entirely different shapes as the kid ages. Also not the same hair pattern as the little boy on the beach.
Girl With a Hat...absolutely! That was my first thought. Obscure the kids' faces to make it easy to use other kids later. Also to obscure that the current little boy looks *nothing* like any of the little boys they used before.
Agree with you about the comment regarding one child families. I am an only child. Does that mean I wasn't part of a family?
🎄Merry Christmas fellow Nuttues,🎄wishing you all a happy and healthy 2022. I just had my 3rd booster today…so I’m set. 😀
By surrogate, of course.
IMHO - it is a different Archie from the beach photo. I hope I am wrong. It is the hair - "red" does not show as black in a black and white photo.
I posted this on the old post.
Here is the photo and it's clear. Not that you can really see the children well but it's a nice Christmas card, 'normal' looking if posed but not pretentious and/or arty-farty as before.

I was enlarging the picture and wasn't looking too closely and did a double take about her fingers of the right hand. I saw it and wondered if she was giving the finger - she's not but at a quick look it does look that way.
almost looks like a head and shoulders ad especially with the black turtle neck. does seriously look like a print magazine ad.
harry definitely comes across effeminate.
agree. so over the torn jeans look.
black turtleneck because you know she’s black 😉
trying to get clicks so she can show advertisers she has social media presence but clearly no one paid big bucks for lilibuck$ pic. i do think she released it today because no one would be paying attention tomorrow.
kinda weird the way that lilbuck$’s feet just dangle. usually baby feet start moving around when they are held like that and are laughing
the boy archie i presume (or is it gavin) look like he is squirming to get away. run archie run. you life may depend on it 😉
those are my initially thought.
saw that too. if she was giving the finger i actually would tip my hat to her. but alas it is a weird way of holding a baby. maybe her phone was in her hand too 😉
H's arm is hairy and somewhat tan. Then his hand is pasty white and hairless.
I'm still puzzling over the baby's right hand fingers. That hand doesn't even look like it belongs to that baby.
Lili looks like she is terrified and scream crying- probably wondering who the hell this woman is that's holding her.
Archie sure has changed (*eye roll*) and something about where his hair meets his face and ear looks fake.
Agree about the baby's hand. Also thought Archie's foot looked large for his size but maybe he just has big feet.
Saw the Christmas card. It's nice for a change and the kiddies are cute.
I've always believed they have children - just not that she carried them.
Neil Sean has posted a video about the card.

@Magatha - Great to see you back again! 😊
@RaspberryRuffle - Getting my booster at the end of first week of Jan. Bring it on! 😄
L's toes. They cross but there is some extra foot there where the two big toes meet. If it were the little toe (R), it would be back farther in the line of vision - more parallel to where the left is.
Jesus sat down opposite the place where the offerings were put and watched the crowd putting their money into the temple treasury. Many rich people threw in large amounts. 42 But a poor widow came and put in two very small copper coins, worth only a few cents.
43 Calling his disciples to him, Jesus said, “Truly I tell you, this poor widow has put more into the treasury than all the others. 44 They all gave out of their wealth; but she, out of her poverty, put in everything—all she had to live on.”
Mark 12:41-44
H's arm is not tanned, it's freckled but it's hard to see on the phot
@Elsbeth1847
L's right foot does look strange, as if it's bigger than it should be or as if the 2nd toe was very prominent.
Lily is... lily white! Archie looks like the boy on the beach, especially the hair but I'm not sur if the 6s are teasing us. The children's faces are not really that visible. Either you don't show them because you want privacy 🤔 or else you show them à la Cambridges.
“So when you give to the needy, do not announce it with trumpets, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and on the streets, to be honored by others. Truly I tell you, they have received their reward in full.”
MATTHEW 6:3-4
“But when you give to the needy, do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing, so that your giving may be in secret. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you.”
Good on you lassies for those boosters! Leaving it there...
@Miggy,
We are on the same page about the kiddos. Thanks for the Neil Sean vid. Happy Christmas ☃️🎄
`Posed by models'? It's `too perfect'. Reminds me of cheesy ads for Seniors dating!
Compare him with George and Louis.
And what's this with `Team Rubicon'? `Disaster response and skateboard and scooter coaching' ???!!!! I see - 2 organisations with URLs that are easily confused
What is that black thing in the left corner of the baby's mouth?
As some folk have noticed, the photo appearing online is low-res. It was taken by a professional photographer so the original would have been high-res, and in focus.
Either she messed up in the editing phase or for some odd reason sent out a low-res version of the photo.
If I was the professional photographer (who has a long association with them and wrote a long and gushing post about them and the day he spent with them to get this photograph), I would be annoyed at the sloppy way my professional work has been presented.
But maybe he is still under the spell of a day of major love bombing!
I think it is like a pretzel rod? I think that because it looks like the end of it in her grasp.
Back to looking at the blow up version
Something else about holding the baby. I was looking at how the edges of the knuckles are so clearly defined (not sure they would be quite so at that distance).
Even if you are (for some reason holding out your index finger straight) would you really not wrap the others over the baby (instead of lifting them up so only the fingertips are touching)? Me? I would be worried about a sudden wiggle and the baby is no longer under my control.
What do you think about all the reflected images on the glass panels to the left (flowers) and right (her knees)? I would have thought that would have been taken out.
I believe I read that the photographer has worked with them before (engagement and wedding).

Thanks a lot.
Having heard The Body Language Guy's analysis of other photographs, the main thing that jumped out at me is the prominence given to "Lili." Both her place in the composition and the direction her "parents" are looking mean that she's the one our eyes end up focusing on. In the meantime, "Archie" is kind of lost in the photo -- and not because there was a need to cleverly angle his face away from the photographer. Yet he stands out a lot more than his "mother," whose dark top was a poor choice of clothing for a group shot where everyone else is in light colors. Maybe she's trying to make up for that awful "mother of life" photo in which she and her moon bump obscured everyone else's faces?
There's also a "loop" here, because after our eyes are guided to "Lili," they're pulled back to Harry. I disagree with the above poster who thinks "Lili" is looking at her "father." I think she's looking at * -- but for some reason (the dark sweater?), she makes us look back at Harry. If we notice "Archie" at all, it's because he has hair similar to Harry's.
I must say I'm genuinely surprised by this one. * is the humblest I've ever seen her. Everyone else is allowed to shine brighter.

body language guy and the card
Ripped jeans, how appropriate for a prince, seriously. And bare feet? Disgusting, especially on a holiday card meant for public view.
No thanks on having to read this drivel that with two children they are a family. They are trying to claim the word and twist its definition to suit their narrative, just like they did with “service.” There is nothing wrong with a family being a person and a pet, or a parent and one child.
Do these photographers sign NDAs, with the exception being social media postings TBW writes for them? How else to explain this parade of rented children? And why aren’t the same child models used more regularly for continuity, or is she just not someone the parents want their actor children to be around more than once?
Perhaps a crater can open up precisely under their house, a tiny crater, only large enough for that one residence, and they will disappear.
Thank you
If this is the direction they want to take going forward, * will need to be a lot more consistent and disciplined about her image.
And she definitely can't afford to keep having her name associated with Prince Andrew.
The kids are cute, whoever they are.
Lil Lil’s right hand looks like a
mini claw 🥴
Guess no one paid millions for Lillibucks first photo so they were forced to reveal her likeness. She's cute tho.
Looks like * put on some pounds as her thighs are bigger than Harry's.
@CatEyes: I noticed her thighs too. They do look bigger than Harry’s.
Why is she the only one in the photo wearing shoes?
Because her feet have been publically ridiculed?
Just wondering since Body Language Guy pointed it out.
Merry Christmas! For those of you who may have young children who are looking forward to a visit from Santa Claus, Father Christmas, Kris Kringle, Papa Noel, Père Noël, Weihnachtsmann or any other name for the jolly old elf, on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day itself, you and your little ones can track Santa as he travels around the world, and at the same time, give the kiddos a geography lesson.
On the Internet, go to NORAD Santa Tracker on Christmas Eve starting at 6 am Eastern Time in the United States to follow Santa around the world as he brings toys and joy to children everywhere.
It’s quite a lot of fun to see Santa fans follow him on his route, which begins in east Asia and Australia, moving around the planet westward before finally ending in Hawaii.

Perhaps a crater can open up precisely under their house, a tiny crater, only large enough for that one residence, and they will disappear.
I share your sentiments. This “normal” (for them) Christmas card feels like just another manipulation. Another PR strategy to try and repair the damage to their reputations.
“Underlining the Sussexes’ departure from the working Royal family, in which the palaces try to co-ordinate their announcements so as not to overshadow one another, their card was made public on the same day as details of the Queen’s Christmas message.
It came moments before Buckingham Palace confirmed that there would be a festival of thanksgiving for the life of the Duke of Edinburgh in the spring.”
Singalong🎤
Apologies:
Once in Royal David’s City
Once in Tin Foil Tinsel City
Once in feral Montecito
Stood an ugly big homestead
Where a *mother left her babies
With a nanny so she said
Megsy was that *mother vile
Phantom babes she’s infertile
*yet to be confirmed
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex have sent out a Christmas card — without any mention of Christmas.
As ever with the Sussexes, their apparently casual Christmas photoshoot oozes professionalism.
While most people’s family snaps are all clashing Boden and screaming toddlers, Team Sussex’s is a carefully styled masterclass in the modern American dream, or at least their version of it.
We have Harry clutching his mini-me Archie and Meghan gazing at baby Lilibet, pristine in her white dress. The greeting is happy holidays, not happy Christmas, because that’s what they say in America, and it’s shot by Alexi Lubomirski, the Vogue photographer who also took their wedding photographs.
Who knows why they never look at the camera in these photos they keep releasing. Maybe it’s uncool in the Californian sun.
It could easily be an advert for Gap or Ralph Lauren, matching in faded jeans, ripped in Harry’s case. And it’s looking increasingly as if the suitcase with his shoes in it never made it across the Atlantic.
The couple who went to America to escape all things royal can now be relied upon to release official photographs, just like the royals.
Meticulously choreographed, artfully styled, it sums up the Sussexes. Happy holidays indeed.
Lots of comments in the Times have been deleted, with commenters complaining about it. Still there are some amusing ones. just one example:

Donald Hebert

The stories about their penury are true….torn jeans, that poor child going about without shoes. Tragic, simply tragic.
@Rebecca
Thanks for the Times/Telegraph articles.
Especially loved
“Meticulously choreographed,artfully styled”
Artfully subtle shade, delicious 👌
I can't count - Archie was born in April 2019 IIRC - if this was taken in the summer, he was only 2 - he's not 3 yet.
I rest my case.
WildBoar
I think he was born May 2019,
would make him 2 years 7 months now.
Summer, he would have been
2 and a bit.
My kids were/are tall, don’t think
they were that tall at that age?
Something rotten in the state of Cito!
Maybe it's just me... splitting hairs!
You get both shorter and taller children outside the average expectation, we don’t all come out the same genetic mould. 😁
I totally agree. Thanks for staying the logic, and the obvious.👍
We can't generalize as badly as we'd like to.
That line from the film Smoke Signals where a group of kids are looking for players for their basketball team and one says not to ask so and so because he's Apache and "Apache's are short".
His deadpan Native way of saying it gets a laugh out of me every time because it's the truth.
Ok meanwhile back on the ranch 😀
Mrs. 6 also managed to make herself the center of attention, I mean, the center of the picture. The two children they paid someone else to carry look cute. I'm not going to say anything negative about blameless children, God help them as they grow up under these narcs' care.
The picture is completely inoffensive and devoid of any personal meaning. The Harkles are hardly inoffensive, but they are devoid of any personal meaning, so I suppose it somewhat fits. Hey, at least we don't have a blurry, paint-by-numbers picture like we had last year.
Also, someone spray-painted more hair on 6's head. His bald spot is far larger than that, unless he's been hitting the Rogaine hard.
I still can't get past the baby's ET fingers on the right hand.
Nor whatever it is that is Archie's right arm. His hand could be behind his back buy his arm isnt. The right sleeve shows with something coming out of it. If that isn't his arm there, what is it? And if it is his arm, that's a mighty funny looking arm.
They are so weird.
For the last 22 years I have been a children’s librarian and worked with hundreds of children from birth to 18. I am not myself a mother, and I can testify that there is a dizzying variety in child development, but I get suspicious when Maggot’s children defy every normal developmental standard for any age she tells us they are. Maggot always keeps her dates extremely vague to make it impossible to separate her version of truth from actuality. This photo was supposedly taken “in the summer”. Lili was born on June 4, according to the person who claims to be her mother. So this photo was allegedly taken when she was one or two months old. The baby is at least 4 months here. Maggot has her posing for a Christmas card before she is even christened. We’ve got our priorities straight.
Master Arch is also closer to 4 than he is 21/2. Harry is tall, although 6 foot one is not extraordinarily tall, particularly when paired with Maggot’s genetics. Without her 4 inch heels, Maggot looks barely 5’4” And her mother is even shorter. That would probably have some mitigating effect On their children being in the 99th percentile for height. The Cambridge children are exceptionally tall for their ages, but they’ve got height coming from both sides, with their willowy model tall mother. In my opinion Maggot is competing with Prince George here, meaning that her firstborn son must also be much taller than average even when genetically it’s not very likely. It’s also amazing how his hair turned riotously red and curly overnight When we’ve only ever seen children with brown or blond straighter hair until now. Not counting painted Archie from last year’s Arts and Crafts effort. She must have searched high and low for Child that resembled that pnting. Seeing as it took 2 1/2 years for such tufts of red hair to appear. Go back and look at pictures of Harry’s Christening When he was the approximate age of the baby in this photo—Blazing red hair. Even when he first came out it was obvious that he was a ginger, his father even famously mentioned it. Little orphan Annie hair like that does not suddenly appear on a child’s head from one photo opportunity to the next. Master or Arch’s hair has getting more progressively colorized with each iteration. They are desperate to keep hammering home Archie’s paternity Almost as though they think we might doubt it.
Archie is not looking at either of the adults, nor they him. He is kind of smiling but he looks snapped in the act of trying to escape from Harry’s clutches. An extremely uncomfortable and awkward looking pose. As might be expected if he’s being held so tightly by a complete stranger in a photo shoot. Just throwing that out there.
The baby looks to be laughing at first glance, but study her little face some more and see how her eyes are squinched closed…She could just as easily be getting ready to cry, or engaged in screaming in my observational opinion. More to the point the baby seems to be avoiding eye contact with the person who has placed her in this precarious position up in the air without a firms grip. If anyone has held a baby especially over your head (as we do all the time don’t we?) I can guarantee that she wouldn’t hold her with only some of your fingers. The baby must be around 12 pounds at the minimum, yet Meg has her index finger on her dominant hand, arguably her strongest finger completely detached from the child. Again it’s a completely unnatural hand position, particularly for the baby’s mother to be doing. Go back and look at photos of M holding Archie at 4 mos in South Africa—Archie is seated on her lap, and is being held by the minimum number of fingers necessary to keep him upright, but M is Actually touching him as little as she needs to. I’m not sure what Jesus Rosas would make of this but it tells me that she doesn’t actually have a maternal bind with these kids and is only touching them for the pictures, because she has to. Despite the frantic smiles, there is no sense of relationship here with either child.
Which there wouldn’t be if they are only posing for a picture with a Vogue photographer. Maggot’s obsession with being in Vogue continues…Even if she has to exploit two hired kids and a gullible world, she’s gonna get her Vogue moment. Poor Doria—Her role as family historian/Christmas card photographer has been recast. Does anybody remember that Maggot actually has a mother? She’s had to eclipse
all other mothers now that #2 makes them “a real family”. I also consider the baby’s legs Dangling like a dead frog like that in that particular position to be quite unnatural also. She would be far more likely to have her little legs drawn up more because it’s an insecure position for her up in the air being barely held onto.
Some have mentioned that Maggitt has uncharacteristically put herself more in the background in order to highlight the children, particularly the baby in her white dress…Shades of a christening dress, hmm? But actually the longer I look at it, I think the black turtleneck?—A choice of clothing for a summer portrait in California one would’ve thought—Once again Maggot makes sure to highlight herself By being dressed entirely differently than anyone else in the frame. Harry and the kids are all dressed in casual light colored clothing. The heavier looking black top creates almost a negative space that one's eye is drawn to. Make no mistake, Maggot Madonna is the star of this photograph. And she’s also too good to go barefooted Like everyone else, whom she presumably dictated would all be barefoot in subservience to her—Dressed more formally in shoes And the jeans that are intact. The dark sweater is also meant to camouflage what looks to be a thick midsection and we see that her legs are thick too. I’d probably choke her weight gain up to gallons of rosé and bags of Doritos rather than motherhood, but I’ve always been jaded in this regard. I still don’t believe these two are actually parents And it’s going to take more than a Vogue photo shoot to convince me. I pray daily that they are not, for the sake of any children out there.
That would also explain Archie not appearing to be part of the family unit. He wasn't. It's from a different photo.
I also think Mm's lower legs and ankles look too thick to be hers. She has extremely thin shins and ankles. And very knobby knees. These knees have too much meat on them to be hers.
Re Archie's red her, I wrote this morning about the red hair gene. I wonder if it runs in Thomas Markle's family.
It's about proportions, the relative dimensions of skull size to torso length, width of shoulders, length of limbs. And, yes, I know that tall people have relatively small heads compared with short one and on the whole, it takes more than 3 years to approach adult ratios.
Babies' skulls are relatively large in proportion to the rest of their bodies, their legs are relatively short. It just seems to me that his legs are relatively long and elegant and his head smaller in relation to the rest of him than I'd expect.
To me, wee A's photo still looks like a that of an older child whose size has been reduced so he fits on H's knee - for photoshop purposes
Unless of course Americans do have relatively long limbs compared with we shorties in the UK - this may be the case because my North Face foul-weather jackets are always 2" too long in the sleeve even tho' they fit elsewhere.
Changing the focus slightly, I liked the way TBLG picked up on her aping Diana again with the holding-baby-in-the-air pose, just as Di did with Wm.
'
I’ve just been studying the photo again. I can’t help myself. I keep trying to give Maggot the benefit of the doubt you n at least one aspect of what she’s trying to sell—That at the very least, this was a real photograph have a group of people taken in the same room together, even casting out the extremely unlikely prospect that they are biologically related and living full-time in the same house.
But if even the promotional photograph for this fake family is itself faked…I just really don’t have any words for that level of consistent deception. The high contrast between the lighter backgrounds and the darker segments do make this composition look very unnatural on a micro level. These compositions pass muster at the very first glance, without any sort of further study. The same thing happened with the presentation tableau and the christening tableau at Windsor. They seem like normal photographs until You take a closer look.
The position of the baby is exceedingly odd. She is both too limp and too oversized, for a baby supposedly no more than 8 or 10 weeks here. Archie also looks nearly 4, not 2 years and a few months. I’ve just had another look at his feet—Look at the child’s foot which is closest to us. It’s enormous. To me that looks like an adult size 4 or 5..And he supposed to be two years old here? Bollocks.
The whole line of the baby against Maggot’s black sweater looks really weird. Likewise, don’t we think Harry’s beard against Maggot’s shoulder looks pasted on as well? It really looks to me like Harry might have been photographed holding the boy, and Maggot was
photographed Separately, possibly holding a baby like that, but equally likely pantomiming holding a baby given the bizarre positioning of her hand, And the two sets of images mash together. It’s an attractive background, and at least it’s not the chicken coop. But all of the elements do not function organically together as a whole.
So, many people are rightfully puzzled over a Y the Photoshop is so poorly done—If Maggot’s goal Is to convince us that she is the matriarch of a happy and thriving little family. We could chalk it up to haste or a lack of funds, or Narc Aesthetic blindness, but what if it’s even more insidious than any of these? What if she *purposely* Allows the release of such glaringly amateur and botched images because she is taunting us, and particularly taunting the royal family who must know the real score? Reveling in her lies and deceptions and saying with each subsequent release “I’m never going to stop—H is totally mine and there is nothing you can do or say without getting yourselves in the sh*t.”
Maggot always keeps her dates extremely vague to make it impossible to separate her version of truth from actuality
___
Yup. Thank you! Narcs like to ALWAYS keep people guessing. Mind games galore with them. I refuse to give her baloney too much energy by overthinking her every move.
I had a thought about her narcissisim. I have a close relative who has come up with a very unique way of glossing over her narc self; since a lot of people have fiqured out her problem. She now says she was tested for autisim and is on the spectrum (low, of course).
She's crazy like a fox so she knows people with autisum are often tagged as narcs because of **some** silmilar traits; most are not narcs though some are dual diagnosed as both.
I wonder if she gets desperate enough now that people are outing her narcissism, if she will cry autisim to keep people from "bullying" her. This is what my relative is now doing... UGH!
Wouldn't that be just like her to weasal her way out of being a full blown narc by using the autistic community to cover her crap?
------
Just like she keeps pics of the kids vague and obscured to more easily substitute other kids in and out as needed.
-------
I think that's exactly it. She's daring them to out her.
Welcome!
Keep reading and then jump in the pool. I'm sure you have great additions to our musings.
Glad you are here :)
Husband's first comment: `The boy's wearing a Harry wig.'
Heck, Harry is wearing a Harry wig!
Mm's black sweater and hair also obscures the lines between herself and H, masking that they weren't actually together for this photo shoot.
All the photo manipulation is insane. Wouldn't it be so much simpler for at least the two people who (reportedly) live together to be in the same room at the same time?
Or maybe they were in the same room and the narc just had the following brainwave . . .
@Hikari
The heavier looking black top creates almost a negative space that one's eye is drawn to. Make no mistake, Maggot Madonna is the star of this photograph
I buy this because it's the oddest part of the photograph. It throws off the entire look and is distracting for that very reason. Perhaps the sweater was actually a suitable color and she commanded that it be turned into a black hole of attention (kind of like her own soul) during editing.
It is overcomposed and has all the typical hallmarks of the viper - excessive photoshopping and things that do not match like Lilli's unresponsive feet, her blurred clawed right hand, the matchy-matchy red hair and Archie's head of curls looks ridiculous instead of cute. Got the feeling she had the curls made purposely to show that he had inherited her ethnic curls.
Merry Christmas everyone and a very Happy New Year to all!
Don't feel shy to join in the conversation. I also cannot write like the other contributors here but it is nice to let known some of my opinions by posting here, lol.

Can * top this? This will put her nose out of joint.
Good night all and Merry Christmas/Happy Holidays to all Nutties 🎄
I doubt that she would intentionally release pic with obvious flaws. She things she is the best and most professional in everything - a Miss Know It All. I think because she is a narc and never thinks though everything properly, is the reason for these flaws. Reminds me so much of Amber Heard who thought she had the perfect plan to fleece a rich man but she made so many mistakes they will come back to haunt her.
Glad I'm not alone! lol

I sat and watched Catherine's carol service at Westminster Abbey, whilst drinking Glühwein (mulled wine) and stuffing my face with mince pies.(a once per year indulgence!) It was lovely and her piano playing was most impressive. Not because she's mega talented... but because it took guts to do that in front of such a large audience.
Merry Christmas/Happy Holidays to all. 🎄
“Archie” is the key. Although it was obvious even long before the wedding that TBW was not going to integrate into her new role easily if at all, the Queen and the rest did everything possible to welcome their newest member. The lavish wedding. Absolutely unprecedented privileges even before she was married—Attending the family Christmas at Sandringham and the walk as a fiancée was is a privilege not even extended to the mother of the future King—Any aof them in fact. High profile patronages like the National Theatre Before she had any sort of track record in the family. A private engagement with the Queen on the royal train? I think William might have been on the royal train once and Harry never. That engagement was less than four months into her marriage. Catherine appeared with the queen some 15 months after her marriage at the opening of the London Olympics, but it was years more before she got a solo engagement with the Queen—And that was a visit in town, no royal train. In only about 18 months as a working Royal, Farkle got 3 Tours abroad. But I think things really began to turn sour Only five months into the marriage, with her “pregnancy announcement”. The bullying of KP stuff had already been going on for months, and that may have been what prompted William to apply to the Queen to have them removed. But I think there was something even more grave that led to the Sixes complete icing out from that point forward. It wasn’t simply that they’ve been asked to find new accommodation, and that the Royal foundation couldn’t support 4 bosses—After the Australia tour, no one even wanted to stand next to them, talk to them, or look them in the eyes. I think any semblance of official support was withdrawn from them then. Oh, they were still being financially supported and housed somewhere, But they were cut off from the loop Palace communications and protocol. As her bizarre “pregnancy“ with its magical bump progressed, with zero information forthcoming about her birth plans or her medical team, I think it was in the air that she had either at successfully or unsuccessfully engaged a surrogate. Or maybe not even that far, so great is her confidence in her ability to create reality in the face of facts—Maybe she assumed she could just fake the entire thing and used dolls and hired actors, and there’s really no definitive proof that she hasn’t done exactly that. Twice. Are there actually children in whoever’s care out in the world with their DNA? It’s hard for me to believe that there are.
The queen even offered M the opportunity to continue acting even after she was married…Presumably that would have entailed her and H living at least part of the time in the United States or Canada. Even though such an offer was contingent upon them not excepting monies from the Sovereign grant as “full-time working Royals”, That would’ve been essentially the life they are attempting to live now, apart from the cashing in on their titles bit…They have never honor their promise not to do so not even for a millisecond. But supposing for shits and giggles that Meg had accepted this proposal And they had kept their noses clean And behave themselves, and stayed on good terms with everyone, don’t we think they would have been welcomed back for those big signature events like balcony appearances and royal ascot and the Jubilee and the Christmas walk which all the family participate in including the ones who are not working Royals?
Part II
The offense that M gave to her Majesty and the institution Was so grave that this could never be allowed, nor could it ever be undone. Tampering with the line of succession is treason. Harry is complicit. Those two are done forever. But she can’t resist doubling tripling quadrupling down on her awfulness By producing another kid and all of these exercises in Photoshop from across the Pond. Because if ever the time does come when the charade of her motherhood is unmasked, who is going to pay the ultimate penalty? Not her… she’ll go on Oprah again and turn on the water Works and cry That due to an earlier miscarriage she had suffered And the incredible pressures of royal life and all the systematic racism she was experiencing, she suffered a psychotic break and pretended to be pregnant because of her fragile mental health and how bullied she was by the royal family… Who, upon finding out very early on that the pregnancy was not genuine, pressured her to go through with the charade for the appearances and what had already been told. She will twist the whole thing around to make it seem like she was forced into an 11 month pregnancy And presenting a doll as an heir to the British throne. Her sugars and woke media will flock to her and sympathy, and the British monarchy will be done. People will converge on Windsor Castle with rocks and flaming torches. Her egregious behavior points to her having the BRF over a barrel of some kind. The racist allegations about our cheese skin tone was just the opening salvo. I predict that those two will get some kind of earth shattering interview every six months, because they are extorting Charles for money and for the silence Of the whole family. And we’ve got Harry’s memoirs, ghost written by Meg and some other guy on the horizon. Maggot & Mole Are like the coronavirus: endemic and we will be dealing with flare ups from them for years to come.

Enjoy! 😊
The child’s name—Archie Harrison—Has always seemed like some private joke between the two of them they cooked up one night at Soho house when they were baked. Archie is an anagram of Rachel, and “Harrison“ is, although coincidentally a homophone of “Harry’s son“, also the name of the textile line sold by Soho House. Linens, towels, robes and slippers, I’ll called Harrison. Meg’s favorite bath robe. Isn’t it in keeping with the sophomoric juvenile humor of these two that well high one night They thought it would be an absolute ways to name their phantom child after a bathrobe? Soho House is where they met after all.
As for Lilibet, that is a poisonous dig at the Queen herself mere weeks after she was widowed And deprived of the one person who was allowed to use that name for her. Even if the choice of the name had truly been intended as a heartfelt tribute, which it fecking was not—Hairy had to have known how far he was overstepping the mark.
In this season of Christmas, or anytime really, what I’m about to say is not in keeping with Christian charity, but as far as I’m concerned they can both burn in hell. When I die and go to meet Jesus I don’t want those tossers anywhere near me.
Of course Rachel will never top Catherine in 1 million years. She doesn’t play any instrument, as that would have required many thousands of hours of dull practice with no one looking at her and praising her every minute. She cannot do anything that requires even a smidgen of talent or stick to itivness. I don’t think she can even carry a tune in a bucket, and she certainly doesn’t know any of the words to you White Christmas. Hard to believe she even appeared on stage even pretending to sing such a racist song!!!
This is why her entire life has to be faked to create this mediocre Instagram reality. Because she can’t do anything, she got the attention span of a gnat, I think she’s Intellectually lazy and vacant, though she is crafty. Crazy like a fox is not the same as possessing intellectual heft. She’s boring. She’s basic. She’s got zero self-awareness. No, no danger that she will ever upstage Catherine no matter how many pathetic bids for attention she makes.
My question - can * top this? - was a rhetorical one. Of course she can't. She might try but she can't. Fur will be flying in Montecito.
Re:"Archie" It is interesting how a child with straight hair without a hint of red is now very curly-haired with fiery red-colored hair. I have a mixed-race grandchild; he was born with *very* curly hair and it remains curly. His hair color has not changed. I have a granddaughter that was born with *very* blonde hair with a hint of red which has now darkened a bit to a light strawberry blonde at the age of 7. Her hair texture did not change. I have a mixed race niece who was born with straight hair and dark skin; her hair remains straight and dark auburn. My middle brother was born with light blonde hair; @ puberty, it changed to strawberry blonde.
I dunno, y'all. In my experience, when hair changes color and/or texture, it is when the child is a bit older. I don't think that this 'Archie' is the same child (or the hair is photoshopped).

Meghan Markle crowned ‘the most intelligent British royal’ in new study
https://nypost.com/2021/12/24/meghan-markle-crowned-the-most-intelligent-british-royal-study/
I wonder how much she paid for that accolade?
As yet, none of that holds water. Do we know what class of degree she got? Is having a degree a mark of intelligence (whatever that is) or just the ability to remember stuff and produce it at the right moment? Blowed if I know & I've got 3 BAs in completely different subjects!
Who did she have to `persuade' to give her good marks in her course work. Nothing about her suggests a great intellectual capacity - we know her favourite buzzwords but is there any sustained piece of writing that indicates even a wide vocabulary? Apart from `roast chicken' and such like?
Oxford Royale sounds a bit iffy to me.
Fear not, Hikari - the angels' message was `Peace to (those) of Good will' - not to everybody! I don't think that `evil' is strong enough to describe them.
Meanwhile, what struck me about the Cambridges' carol service was that it wasn't about them but the people they were honouring. When when Catherine was playing, the singer was centre stage, she was in background, with a gentle accompaniment and William's reading (John 1,vv i-ix) the words were more important, as they should be, given that they are about the mystery of the Incarnation - sacred words.
Which means none for the Duke and Duchess of the Montesh*tshow. But for them I also wish them hardy helping of exactly what they deserve in the new year.
With knobs on!
MERRY CHISTMAS TO ALL 🎄 (slightly squiffy here) 😂
Her speech was very moving this year... brought tears to my eyes. 😭
Miggy. Sounds delicious. i indulge in my favorite ice cream only on christmas. kindred spirits!
a friend just sent me the youtube clip of Catherine’s piano performance. i agree. it was simple (have been learning myself) but it took a lot of courage knowing everyone would be judging it
and i agree fur is flying in Montecito. what a great gift to the grifter isn’t Catherines’s bday coming up? expect something out from Cali around then.
off to make breakfast. hope everyone has a good day!
It’s not even a case of “Anything you can do, I can do better.” It’s more of “Anything you said you could do, I can actually do it and more.”
Oh, Snarky! I must be one of the very few people on this earth that is not a fan of ice cream!
I probably have a taste once every 6 years or so... and then say "Meh" 😂
Merry Christmas x
August, Lucas, Sienna and "Lili," I guess.
Thanks for sharing the comment. So true! Some people talk a "good game" without action backing up their words. All talk no action. Meaningless drivel.
The Duchess of Cambridge says little and just acts. All action not meaningless drivel. I love the comment above which noted that Catherine was playing in the background in a supporting role. Well done, Duchess!
Also, in the version I saw on YouTube, there was a video afterwards of a choral group singing and snippets of her family, with not one sighting of Andrew or the Harkles.
The message can't be clearer: Andrew York and the Harkles are NOT part of the Royal Family moving forward.
I did notice the emphasis on HMTQ’s heirs and their wives…But that has been her consistent branding message for a few years now, and so I didn’t take it as a specific eff you to the subsidiary members of the extended family. In the end-of-year address, the CEO of Britain, Inc. is highlighting her two senior VPs for the shareholders, as the next two upcoming generations of leadership. Not a specific diss to the Harkles or any if her other children or grandchildren or great-grands as such, Though with all the backstage family drama, it’s tempting to read it like that, and you can bet the Monteshitshow mountebanks will do just that.
**”It’s not personal—It’s business.” Michael Corleone & HMTQ
Farkle’s latest faux motherhood project was included in the tally of new babies, which was more than she deserves. Harry cannot seem ti make peace with his designated role in the hierarchy and neither could Andrew. Even if both of them had not turned out to be morally bankrupt Wastrell playboys who are a disgrace to their family name, day would still have been, as they are, constitutionally irrelevant once their elder brothers had children. H supplanted his uncle Andrew from the moment he was born and sent him a slot further down the succession. Now that Charlotte has done it to him, he sure doesn’t like it at all. Too bad, cupcake—That’s the hereditary monarchy for you. Suck it up or die.
I fully expect a particularly nasty attack on the Duchess of Cambridge for her birthday this coming year, just a couple of weeks from now. What ever thunder Yak Hair Intended to steal away from Catherine’s triumph On the Christmas stage with the latest exercise and family photo fakery remains resolutely unstolen. Catherine is going to have to pay for that in some insidious Narc revenge.
The Queen looked quite well in her bright red dress, but it’s quite a shock to see how very very tiny and birdlike her shoulders now are. She has gotten very thin, but her indefatigable resolve remains intact.
Miggy. i will eat and extra dish of ice cream for you. mincemeat pie sounds amazing. i want to spend a christmas in the uk just for that.
Happy Holidays and Merry Christmas to all the Nutties! I've been here since Day 1, don't comment often but find you all so entertaining and thought-provoking.
This may not fly in the British tabloids, which seem very respectful of the privacy of royal children these days. And I'd hope that US media, which is starting to blur our children's faces, would also have the good taste not to print such drivel.
We were done and dusted the 24th.
Today has been a lazy day, spit roast lamb on the BBQ, touch nippy outside though.
O/T
Incase you’re unaware, mincemeat or mince tarts as we call them aren’t savoury they are a sweet tart, (traditionally eaten at Christmas) originating from the Tudor period when they once did contain actual meat. 🥴 Below is a recipe, not the best one plus there are various versions of them. I like both shortcrust and flaky pastry ones, even ones with a marzipan top.😀
https://www.keep-calm-and-eat-ice-cream.com/mincemeat-tarts/
Will try.
Merry Christmas every one!
just saw a pic of the Cambridge’s leaving church. surprised we don’t see a church walk in montecito. oh yeah sara’s spawn can’t go near a church. may melt or explode or something 😉
Well, I guess I didn't internalize the knowledge that HMtQ had been focusing on the two Senior VP's waiting in the wings and not so publically acknowledging the rest of the pack for the last little while.
It makes sense, but I was so enjoying the middle finger salute *I* thought she was giving the Gruesome Twosome.
I adore the fact that you have recognized that Michael Corleone and the Queen both have the same business sense! Genius!
We will see what rage Mrs 6 attempts to unleash on Catherine Cambridge. I hadn't considered that, but seeing a lot of people here expecting it makes sense. The yak-haired one has to be running out of ammunition, though, right? She's tried lies, she's tried sympathy (the fake miscarriage--my belief only, but I won't be dissuaded from it), she's tried out-do-good'ing Catherine (anyone ever heard about the abandoned 40x40 program in the past few months?)
I think the sound we are all hearing is the wailing and gnashing of teeth from Moneycito.
I am enjoying every failed effort of the Harkles to create something of substance. But I am also ready for them to fade into the background and then oblivion.
Plenty of recipes online (you can even make your own filling). Google fruit mince pie, otherwise you'll get recipes for pies with mince meat ... the animal kind!
This is the royal family's recipe:
https://www.royal.uk/inside-royal-kitchens-christmas
Lucy Parham, the concert pianist who is professor of piano at the Guildhall School of Music and Drama, London, and the piano winner of BBC Young Musician of the Year in 1984, said: “Tonight we heard the Duchess of Cambridge play the piano publicly for the first time. She spoke of how important music was to her during the pandemic and her love of the piano was always evident in her playing. As she accompanied Tom Walker and their string quartet, her keyboard skills and musicality were much in evidence.
“She possesses a natural sense of rhythm, strong fingers and she was always in perfect unison with her fellow performers. I loved the eye contact she had with her ensemble at the end of the song. She sat at the piano with confidence and appeared very much at home with the instrument. It’s no mean feat to perform whilst battling nerves and she achieved this with great success. Hats off to her. I hope her performance inspires others to take it up.”

The Harkles don't even live in the UK and have done nothing of note for the monarchy or the country, so there was no need to mention them. Ditto for the Yorks and all her other grandchildren. A clear line has been drawn between those related to her and those who work for the firm.
If anyone was snubbed in her speech it was the Duke of Kent and the Gloucesters. They are working royals.
What does freak me out about the picture is the Angel of Death riding horseback in the reflection of the window behind the baby. Jesus. With a hook for a hand, no less.
I've said it a few times here; two of my paternal great grandmothers were Native...one Mingo, one Eastern Band Cherokee. My father and some of his siblings looked very Native, 2 of his sisters were green eyed blondes.
My mother is mostly Norwegian, her mom was a blue eyed strawberry blonde. My mom's father was dark, with some Finnish blood. My mother took after her father's side. She is short, with dark hair and eyes, olive complected. My father was also short, with dark hair and eyes, and had that Native dark red skin.
I am a pasty white, blue-eyed redhead, who towered over both my parents. My brothers are almost all on the average to short side, all brunette, 2 with light eyes. I got all the Scandi genes, they got all the Native.
All that to say, you cannot predict much about genes.
I enjoyed that Queen's speech. My only grouse is (yes, I am very about a person's presentation) I wish someone has adjusted her dress properly - the collar wasn't sitting flat and too much bunching around the armhole. That said, the red colour was spectacular on her.
Having money still doesn't mean that people will like you though, want to hire you or want to be your friend. Or rather, the ones who want to be your friend, are the ones who want to take advantage of your money.
I seem to remember something about the woman who worked with Howard Stern with her saying that the kids who didn't like him in high school still don't like him now but that he's still trying to get their respect or liked years later now that he's rich and famous. Still wanting what you can't get/have or something like that.
If she were smart, she would do something about paying off part of the house note, pay down debt, save some and take a nice vacation but I suspect we will read that she is now trying to buy a place in NYC (and maybe be on Broadway?).
Gosh, you're right! There's something very strange to the right of the Baby - it's hard to tell what is being seen through the glass and what is being reflected.
I agree about the `Angel of Death'. To me, it looks rather like a Victorian woman, in a flowing habit (with white cuffs!), riding side-saddle on a 3-legged horse, a deformed one at that. (I'm thinking of an illustration in my childhood copy of `Black Beauty'.) Also, what's that brownish area in the bottom left corner of the window, if that's what it is? Part of somebody in brown knickerbockers?
Any half-way professional photographer should be alert to blunders like taking photos with lamp-posts growing from the subject's head - what is going on?

"Following a hearing on 19-20 January 2021, and a further hearing on 5 May 2021, the Court has given judgment for The Duchess of Sussex on her claim for copyright infringement.

Mail on Sunday just printed an apology to her and admitted defeat. They are not appealing the ANL judgement any higher.

@Tatty
Funny, I did not see an apology in that announcement.
I doubt the DM cares about how much they have to pay out to MM...they made a fortune on their articles about her ridiculous antics over the past few years and the tabloid owner is a billionaire.
They have succeeded in exposing her as a liar.
Now they will report even more relentlessly on Markle pointing out every failing, faux pax and false tale possible.
And I'm sure we can expect some krakens to be dropped in the near future!
Absolutely right, we do (usually) call them mince pies. We also have mincemeat pies over here too, which are filled with actual meat. I made the distinction because I’m pretty sure most tourists etc., would be horrified to be offered a mince pie with cream, (which they can be served with) ! 😂. 😃
I’m off to enjoy Boxing Day! 😃🎄Sadly no snow here as originally forecast! ❄️☹️❄️
Oooh, thanks JennS
Sneaky bugger!!!
Archie and Harry’s hair are definitely photoshopped. Makes me wonder then what else was changed. Everything out of Montesh*to is shady and manipulated. Trying to look like the happy family unit isn’t going to work; they have already revealed who they are over the last three years. Vengeful, toxic and miserable.
I didn’t seek out the card, rather saw it while scrolling through the Daily Mail. Honestly, I could care less. They are becoming less and less relevant with each stunt they pull.
Merry Christmas 🎄
@Elska
The point of fail for me was
Lil’s right hand raptor claw?
Not only the raptor claw but also TBW's weird thumb, H's full head of hair... and as someone here, (apologies as can't remember who it was) pointed out the other day, a tiny part of Lili's forehead is missing due to a black vertical line which has been photo shopped into the picture. As for the strange background, (behind Lili) - words fail me!
Loved Swindle Knells 😄

Thank you for your support X
Even if I don't always have the opportunity to state it, as I often pop in to drop a link and then vanish again - you will always have my support!
Your witty, clever poems literally make my day! 😘
Tarts are open, pies have pastry lids. One component of the mincemeat is suet, a remnant of the meat. Once beef suet (the fat around ox-kidneys) it's now often replaced with palm fat. I know a crazy who insists on adding uncooked beef mince to the fruit, then cooking the pies just long enough to brown the pastry, ie not enough to cook the meat.
Yuk! I had one & it tasted like mince smells when it first hits the frying pan - husband had one and was horribly sick later that day. Luckily we didn't get that really nasty E coli.
The cook was so bloody proud of how clever she was - need I say she was a screaming narcissist? She also served what she was pleased to call `non-alcoholic mulled wine' - ie hot, spiced Ribena.
Thanks for your latest poems, brightening up a very dull day (no sunshine for days). Love Hark the Feral (Pees on earth, the ground defiled 🤣) and Swindle Knells.
The statement simply mentions copyright infringement. There is no mention of privacy or protection of data.
Will she issue another statement of victory (Scobie is crowing about victory and the HUGE payout she is going to get)? Will she harbour a grudge forever because she did not get the grovelling apology she demanded (even dictating font size)? What will the financial settlement be? My opinion:
Copyright infringement: she is not entitled to any financial compensation, just an acknowledgement of breach of copyright and the removal of the articles (if there is any fine imposed, it should be paid directly to some literacy organisation).
Privacy: as above, but the fine should be paid directly to a legal aid organisation (but note that the DM has not acknowledged invasion of privacy in its statement).
Data protection: she dropped this absurd claim.
Legal fees: as with his court case, the court should decide what is reasonable, and should take into account that she picked a fight and made no attempt to negotiate resonably for an out-of-court settlement.
It will be interesting to see what the judges give her! They may still be in thrall with the most intelligent, popular, well-known, stylish, influential royal ever (pure sarcasm there)!

Another curse sent their way!
Maneki is absolutely correct. You have supported us Nutties and kept us laughing along the way, during challenging and difficult times. ❤️You’re very much appreciated, and miss you when you’re mute! 🥴
I did wonder if TBW would muscle in on Desmond Tutu death - anything for publicity and self-promotion. I have to say, though, that there is no mention of her/them in the Sun article, not yet anyway, only a photo that the paper reproduced. It could, however, just be a matter of time before she sends her condolences so the whole world knows.
Do keep sending curses her way!
@Raspberry Ruffle
I wrote quickly as usual and you've expressed much better than me what I was trying to say about Magatha's ditties/songs etc. It's especially true as it's morning in the UK when I read them. A good start to the day 😆
And what I forgot to add is that Magatha always cuts * down to size - the best way to deal with TBW.
@Magatha
Keep taking the p¡ss out of her/them.

It will be Oprah who highjacks Tutu's passing. It's what she does. But no doubt TBW will get her bit in as well.
You're Christmas ditties were delicious as usual. Narc the Feral is divine lol. Fark the feral as well...😂
Thanks for keeping us laughing. 😀
P.s.
I agree on Tutu. Sad day. He was a model of ubuntu and not the computer version, the way of life.
I'm late on the blog so it sounds as if someone was hassling you? I don't get emails so I can't get what happened.
I've noticed on occasion some rando poster will appear and toss a small bait n hook your way. Best to ignore the baiters eh? I always wonder when a rando disappears as quickly as they appear (!)...
Jealousy, because of your talent and place on the blog that's what that is.
Keep the satire coming!
If we awarded New Year Honours, I'd nominate Hikari for her perceptiveness and Magatha for her wit that keeps us on the `sane side' of the borderline with madness (speaking for myself) Actually, I'd award everyone a gong for keeping up the Good Fight for truth , loyalty and justice.
Thanks, folks.
I expect be rather quiet for the next week or so as I've an essay deadline to meet, but Ill be looking in.
Meanwhile, may life in 2022 be kind to us all.
Ditto. Stay strong. God is good!
harry (v.)
Old English hergian "make war, lay waste, ravage, plunder,"
Certainly seems appropriate...
I think it is damaging to Harry and Meghan's brand because their entire existence relies on being members in good standing of the British Royal Family with strong, influential ties to the family and the institution of the monarchy. Harry and Meghan have nether. They can only offer burned bridges.
Via Harry and Meghan's behaviors, they have reduced themselves as being royals on a technicality that is so small it can fit on the head of a pin with lots of room remaining.
This is not a good look for them as they attempt to sell their thread of a connection to The Queen and the rest of the family and the monarchy to the highest bidder. They are disgraced secondary members at best with absolutely no influence with the REAL royal family.
The Harkles both know, and this especially holds true with Meghan, that they can't return to the UK and make any public appearance without being booed or having rotted produce tossed at them. They can only appear at events where the audience has been carefully screened to only allow sycophants in extremely controlled events.
For example, you will never again see them walking past a crowd of villagers and tourists going to church with the royal family, on a balcony with the royal family, and least of all doing a walkabout shaking hands with the public unless the crowd has been carefully screened to only allow Sussex sugars.
As more and more prospective business partners realize the Harkles do not hold up their end of contracts by adhering to their end of the agreement and that their royal connection barely exists, the business deals and Archewell donations will dry up. Their “brand” is becoming more and more tarnished as each day passes.
A parallel comparison is that the flood of money that flowed into the Clinton Foundation dried up as soon as Hillary was no longer Secretary of State. Donors knew she was not a well-liked person and that their donations were only buying the influence and power she held as Secretary of State in the Obama Administration. Once she ceased holding that cabinet position, donors knew Hillary’s influence and ability to pull strings had greatly declined, so the donations dried up to a trickle.
