We have had a lot of discussion about the Prince Andrew updates.
The main topic of the blog is the couple in Montecito but let us talk about this for a while.
Points to consider that this is not just about his case or how it impacts his family short or long term.
Or how it will likely continue to be brought up through out the Jubilee (so not looking forward to that amid the festivities).
The Queen may be somewhat funding part of this (as the ski chalet has not sold yet apparently). But she did something similar for Prince Charles when he was cash short and needed to pay to Diana a boatload of money for the divorce. So there is some precedence there.
Some things take time. These kinds of agreements are highly technical as legal documents so they probably took time to draft on their own. And, now the will may have changed as well to accommodate that she may not be around when she is to be repaid. As well as she, or any of the players, is not likely to have that amount of cash on hand.
The Queen, either directly/indirectly or no doubt consulting with other main players, is appearing to line up her ducks and leaving nothing to chance for her Jubilee or when she passes.
How could this all impact the Montecito Duo?
Less cash available?
Is it possible that long term plans were to really move so there could be some sort of political run where it would be a soft entry to start the new life? That takes cash, to get out of the house (if it really is theirs), get into a new one and then to fund the campaign.
Some sort of warning shot across the bow about how we handle even family who create long term problems or their problems threaten us?
Or something else?
MODERATION WILL BE OFF

She combed her hair.
The long train was fairly pretentious.
That dress needs a long neck and strong shoulder line, and a tall, willowy body. And a waist.
None of which she has.
I especially liked the left saggy boob. I think she didn't wear any shapewear.
Does she seem too young to have boobs sagging that much? Especially when they're not that big to start with?
Notice when she's speaking that the left side of her mouth barely moves. Looks like she had a stroke.
I would have said 7/10, but that saggy boob brings it down to 4/10.
Will be curious if the Times of London and the Daily Mail or Mail on Sunday pick up on it and if Harry and Meghan sue the Mardi Gras Krewe that sponsored the float for drawing attention away from their NAACP quid pro quo award orchestrated by Sunshine Sachs.

we should have had bingo on this one. spray tan all over very obvious and for obvious reasons
so did they pursue any big award that would coincide with wales england ruby knowing it would be a big royal event and george would likely be there.
i’m pretty sure they will do nothing with the naacp after this. with every thing it’s one and done.
hubby didn’t look too happy.
I wonder how much they had to pay to get that award.
The Mardi Gras float on the same day as the award! That's what people really think of them.
I checked and so far there's!no mention of the !ardi Gras float in the DM/MoS - maybe tomorrow. I doubt the Times will publish an article on it, they're a bit more high brow!

Harry, sense the tone. You are not a story anyone is interested in. There are bigger things happening in the world. ( In fact there are bigger things than you, happening in my village).
😂😅😳
I've been wondering what's up with M's mouth. Not just at the recent ceremony but in NYC too. New teeth? Fillers? Weight gain? All of the above? But now that I see her with Doria, maybe it's just aging. Doria has the same lips as M although she seems to have changed in the last couple of years too. Mother & daughter sharing a plastic surgeon?
Sort of the textual equivalent of the Mardi Gras float.
Two words describe them.
Tone Deaf!
It's believed that Prince Harry and Meghan faced bills of over £100k (in two £50k instalments) over the past tax year for their Monticito mansion.
"Documents uncovered by the Sunday Mirror claim that the cost of £51,978 came in two separate instalments for the couple.
The outlet claims that the hefty fee is almost double what property experts had previously estimated for their regal home in Montecito, California."
If true that's a whopping tax bill!

'We have been brought together for a reason', says Prince Harry of wife Meghan, Duchess of Sussex
Accepting the award, Prince Harry said: 'I think it's safe to say I come from a very different background to my incredible wife'
The Duke of Sussex said he and his wife had been "brought together for a reason" and shared a "commitment to a life of service" as they accepted a top accolade at the 53rd annual NAACP Image awards.
The Duke and Duchess appeared in person at the ceremony to accept the President's Award, which recognises special achievement and distinguished public service.
Accepting the award, Prince Harry said: "I think it's safe to say I come from a very different background to my incredible wife, yet our lives were brought together for a reason.
"We share a commitment to a life of service, a responsibility to confront injustice and a belief that the most overlooked are often the most important to listen to."
The Duchess added: "I couldn't be prouder that we're doing this work together."
"We are so deeply humbled to be here in the company of such illustrious awardees."
The Sussexes' Archewell Foundation is supporting a new NAACP-Archewell Digital Civil Rights Award, which recognises leaders creating "transformational change at the intersection of social justice and technology".
This community knows what it means to speak up for what is right and to march forward is just," said Harry.
"As the fight for justice for justice still remains, it's time to extend this march to the world online, a place where hate and discrimination are fuelled instantly, propagated globally and felt deeply."
Meghan added: "This is the era of the digital justice movement. We are proud to partner with NAACP and each of you to translate the vital efforts of those who came before us to the modern challenges that exist ahead of us."
Harry wore a tuxedo while his wife wore a long blue dress, revealing her mother had also joined them for the occasion.
At the top of his speech, Harry acknowledged the ongoing crisis in Ukraine and called for support for the country's people from the global community.
The NAACP, which stands for the National Association for the Advancement of Coloured People, was set up in 1909 in response to ongoing violence against black people.
It is the US's largest and most preeminent civil rights organisation, with more than two million activists.

Meghan WANTS this request to be denied, which is no surprise.
Along with it being obvious that Meghan wants to avoid all the bad press she would get because she will likely be met by protesters and catcalls from the public if she ever visits the UK. By forcing Harry to make such an outrageous request, when the request is denied, Meghan will accomplish several things:
A) She can portray herself as a victim of Harry’s family, the monarchy, the UK government including the police, and the citizens of the UK. Harry will also buy into her victim narrative without a thought as she fans the flames of Harry’s paranoia by continuing to compares herself to Diana.
B) It allows her to keep a firm grip on Harry by continuing the physical and psychological isolation of him from his pre-Meghan life. Visits to home might make him realize all he gave up and encourage any feelings of homesickness he might have for familiar places, family, friends, other women, and activities he used to participate in. It might also cause him to realize that his children will know little about British culture and cause thoughts of wanting the kids educated there. It could also create the opportunity for an intervention by family and friends. The less time Harry spends in England, the better it is for Meghan to continue to totally dominate every facet of his life.
C) A denial also allows her to use it as a reason to maintain her grip on two very important objects/assets — the children.
If these kids travel to the UK to visit the Queen and Charles, then Meghan is giving up a certain amount of the leverage and control she currently exerts on the HMTQ, Charles, and to a lesser extent, the rest of the royal family, the UK media and the British public.
For narcissists such as Meghan, children serve a variety of uses. In her relationship with Harry’s family they are especially useful as
weapons, hostages, and bargaining chips.
So a denial will be far more beneficial to her than their demands being met and having to travel there.

Yes, of course it is likely Meghan wants the demand for security to be denied, so the blind is probably on the mark, but there are probably more than the one reason it states.

A) She can portray herself as a victim of Harry’s family, the monarchy, the UK government including the police, and the citizens of the UK.

B) A denial allows Meghan to keep a firm grip on Harry by continuing the physical and psychological isolation of him from his pre-Meghan life.

Glad Nutties enjoyed the link to the Telegraph and the comments. Here is a selection:
"...brought together for a reason.." yeah, to destroy your country and your family....
yeah as a terrible warning to us all
Brought together for a reason? Yes indeed, to have two ains in the pass talking at the same time, as opposed to individually. The problem is that they actually believe their own hype.
And my favourite:
After giving a lecture to Native Americans, Tony Blair was given the name Walking Eagle. He was impressed with this until he learned that it meant he was so full of ....... he could no longer fly. Entries on a postcard to name this pair of hubristic non-entities.
🦅 will do for them.
Thank God her makeup was on-point, her hair was fine although it seemed pretentious but that fake tan! I was like "Will any blacks mention it? She darkened her skin in a show honouring coloured folks."
When she trotted out Doria in a pre-recorded show, I was like "Girl, how transparent can you be?"
So, all in all, an anti-climax. I am getting really bored with her and her douchbag husband.
Did you make the Coronation chicken recipe yet? How did it come out?
I haven't made it yet! I'm in the middle of a move right now, which has been more time- and energy-consuming that I had anticipated, so I'm more preoccupied than normal. But one of my first guests will be a friend who is a huge Anglophile; I think she'll get a kick out of coronation chicken if I serve it for lunch!
natalier. agree hair and makeup was good. outfit was better than i would have expected after NYC. perhaps this was her oscar gown or SAG awards gown for the events for which she is NOT INVITED ( figure that was for her. im guessing she’s readingbe here).have that post on LSA is right. she looking for a new sugar daddy. “hooke up with me and you can check off an ESG initiative box”
this does beg the question what happen to the cosmetic line
saw their buddy chef andre was out on the border of ukraine to help feed the refugees. he mentioned Jeff Bella donated $3MM to the Ukrainian effort. to Bezos credit he didn’t announce it himself. in the mean time the dollars are getting an award for supporting Chef Andre’s world food kitchen (i think that is it) pathetic of the dollars
saw that she popped up in an Anita Hill op ed about the new supreme court nominee. really. that’s a way to diminish judge brown jackson’s accomplishments.
In the late 90s, I read a woman's account of what it was like to be a guest on Oprah's show. She said that the producers were meticulous in fact checking. Even her son's eczema (relevant to her story) needed to be backed up by medical records. The guest was very impressed by the producers' professionalism.
I doubt Oprah is working with the same calibre of team members that she had in her heyday. Were that the case, the Dollars' interview would have been nipped in the bud.
Having said that, the buck still stops with Oprah. That she accepted all their stories at face value without verifying anything is on her.
Harry’s “incredibly different background” comment - Wasn’t one of the cornerstones of their cries of media bullying some headline that said she was out of Compton? Here he’s almost inferring the same. The same way she tried to denounce her upper middle-class background with her stories about how poor she was… just a few months ago. They tell so many lies even they can’t keep them straight.
Sick to the back teeth of their continual gaslighting and how no one is calling them on it.
The whole world’s gone mad.
I wonder if he will sue if this comes to pass.

New in the DM..
Pressure is put on Queen to strip expat Prince Harry of his 'Counsellor of State' role but MPs are told disgraced Andrew should be STILL allowed to stand in for the monarch if she is incapacitated……
Further down the article it states..
Prince Harry should not be eligible to stand in for the Queen as a Counsellor of State because he no longer resides in the country, a new parliamentary briefing paper reveals.
https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-10544629/Queen-strip-Prince-Harry-key-role-does-not-live-UK.html
Just been looking at the odd pic of Harry from the award thing... then up popped one from the Super Bowl.
His face looks so drawn, looks pretty ill at the SB, few days later at the award his face looks pretty normal.
Wish I could change my face as quickly as the duo do.

__________________________________________________________________________
I read elsewhere that the RF will not agree to strip Harry of his Counsellor of State role because they fear he and * would “go nuclear” if that happened. IMO it is never wise to allow fear to prevent one from making difficult decisions. The RF is only making matters worse by remaining passive. The same holds true for Prince Andrew being allowed to remain Duke of York even though the people of York have made it clear they do not want to be represented by him.
Astounding there is no backlash re TW’s blackface at the awards.

There's a bit about calls between the duo and the queen which have stopped after a security breach during one. Netflix listening in to record?
Harry’s “incredibly different background” comment - Wasn’t one of the cornerstones of their cries of media bullying some headline that said she was out of Compton? Here he’s almost inferring the same. The same way she tried to denounce her upper middle-class background with her stories about how poor she was… just a few months ago. They tell so many lies even they can’t keep them straight.
When Rachel presented herself to the world, she acted like she didn't just grow up dirt poor and hustling
If Hapless were not the Current Supply . . .if she'd been a jilted GF or just someone he met once in the course of his 'background' as an elite Prince of the United Kingdom', I daresay she'd have sued him for defamation for that statement and screamed his racist mansplaining from every media rooftop available.
But she scripted those words herself, so it's okay. Hapless followed orders and read his lines. Even though * continually points to *one* 'straight outta Compton reference in the last 5 years as evidence of the systemic racism of the British press directed toward her, it's fine if the disparity in where she grew up in relation to H is something *she* disseminates.
Doria may have that Compton edge to her but Doria abandoned the family more or less, and Rachel was raised by her multiple Emmy-winning father in a nice home, sent to the very best private girls' school in Los Angeles, followed by a prestigious university, ranked #10 in the U.S., all of which he paid for. She got to travel widely in Europe and have plastic surgery, all on Daddy's dime, while still in high school. Thomas Markle has disputed in a public interview that his Flower ever had to crawl out of the back window of her broken-down beater vehicle, but that it was a new vehicle when it was purchased for her, no more than 2 years before the date of her alleged narrow escape. Dad continued to support his princess after the murky resolution of her higher education and alleged stint at a couple of foreign embassies, when she attempted to become a working actress but was too awkward and untalented to find work. There is the matter of her two prior weddings as well, at which traditionally the father of the bride is expected to pitch in a significant amount, even if the groom's family or the groom himself has dough. Trevor may have paid for much of their wedding but the first hushed-up college era marriage was to a fellow student whose parents disapproved of the match. Thomas dug deep.
Rachel grew up in a suburban house in L.A., not a succession of Palaces or boarding schools, but on balance, their core values are more similar than different.
----
--
Both were sent to the very tops in educational environments in their area.
--
Both were entirely supported by their hard-working fathers deep into adulthood, and the dads are both still paying in various ways. Thomas is done shelling out cash, but I'm sure Charles is still carrying them both in some form or other. Where did they get the multiple tens of thousands of dollars to purchase this award for themselves? Neither of them has regular employment. Surely ButterUp and the sale of a few hundred copies of The Stench are not funding their grandiose lifestyle. Neither of them ever 'worked' in the traditional sense, really. Rachel flounced around as a part-time cast member on a few film sets, but she didn't even get regular work in television until she was 30. Til the Deal and Suits paychecks started coming in, it was all Daddy and the various male companionship she kept who were supporting her expensive tastes. And Harry's never had a proper job.
--
Both were raised, inadvertently or not, to regard themselves as superior to everyone around them.
--
Both have older siblings who haven't got much use for them due to their bratty (and worse) behavior.
--
Both have documented incidents of cruelty to animals, family members and peers.
--
Both have been ghosting people since they got their first cell phones, if not before.
So much in common!

I particularly love BLG's analysis of the photo the duo chose as the background for their wonderfulness--of them descending what appear to be more stairs than an an Incan temple, down to the "level of the common folk" from their rarefied heights. SMH so hard it's gonna snap right off and roll under the couch one of these days.

What more proof do they require that their rogue member has already GONE NUCLEAR and will only continue to escalate?
He's been going nuclear since he screamed at the Queen that "What * wants, * gets!"
Letting him keep COS isn't going to stop his forthcoming bombshell book, just like it didn't stop his participation in the Oprah lie-fest or anything else.
The Queen needs to let it be known that the ginger whinger can publish and be d@mned. Not in those exact words as it's not her style, but a similar sentiment.
If what he's already done or threatened to do don't constitute going nuclear, are they afraid he's going to kill himself? I'd meet that prospect with some relief.
I agree. What more can he do to harm the BRF? What else is "going nuclear" aside from the tragic scenario you mention?
Also great analysis of how they have been supported by others most of their life and its effects--entitlement and laziness.
I got held up so I’m late at replying. I agree with what Hikari etc have said.
I wish I knew why the royal family refuse to read Mole the riot act. He’s already gone nuclear and is getting worse. The royal family have had numerous opportunities to strip him of everything. I have a dichotomy of feelings, I feel angry at them for being so publicly weak and ineffective at shutting Mole down, to feeling empathy and sadness for them. I keep hearing there’s lots going on behind the scenes…but there’s little to no show of any real action taken.
When Maggot and Mole said they wanted to leave the Royal family, they should have been told under no uncertain terms would they retain the privileges that come with be being a working and serving member of the royal family; they should’ve been told they’d lose it all. The writing was on the wall, they should’ve left the royal family as just Prince and Princess Henry and nothing else, zero privileges, ties, patronages, including succession and his role as Counsellor of State. 🤔😒
I'm not sure I buy the story the RF has been essentially blackmailed into letting him keep the CoS. I don't doubt someone has reported that, I'm just not sure I believe it's true. And as has been discussed before here residency and domicile aren't the same thing. There may be no grounds to remove H anyway.
I agree with @Rebecca not making decisions out of fear isn't good. But I'm not sure I agree Andrew should have his dukedom stripped. I get that some folks in York don't want PA as a "representative." People in Sussex have said the same about PH, and at one point there was a small but noisy contingent in Cambridge that wasn't happy with PW. Maybe it's because I'm an American but all that seems like one of those "too bad, so sad" situations. First, I'm not sure how much "representing" goes on anyway. And second, even if it did, I don't think the removing of royal dukedoms is a matter of democracy or based on the current mood of the populace. Suggesting people have a say would seem antithetical to the whole notion of royal dukedoms!
I do understand that they don't want their county's name tainted by association with these, to put it as kindly as possible, under-performing members of a no longer useful, medieval organization
-------
Also, @Hikari, you are on fire even more than usual today. I love it. Unfortunately I don't think any "publish and be darned" messages will be immediately forthcoming from the current occupant. But then--we really don't know what is going on behind closed doors!
@Design Doctor
@Raspberry Ruffle
I agree that Twit and Twat have already gone nuclear and that it is well past time for the Queen to rid the monarchy of the megaton albatross (albatrosses, if you count Andrew) slowly strangling it.
Is it the Queen’s advanced age that is the impediment? Charles’ weakness? Somehow I think if William were in charge the coup de grace would have been dealt by now.
How much more damage could they do?
They have zero remorse, zero compassion (despite their word salads), zero ethics. They have absolutely nothing! Propped up by sunshine sacks, the royal family, and now NAACP, they continue to undermine, lecture(ad nauseum), and pronounce ridiculous thoughts.
They are tasteless.
But it’s those who continue to prop them up who are to blame.
I don't blame people for not wanting the name of where they live associated with royals they don't like. But none of these dukedoms--York, Sussex, Cambridge-- carry territory with them anymore like say, the Duchy of Cornwall. So I don't know that there is an expectation of representation or an expectation people from those areas have a bigger say.
I'd be surprised if there's any further stripping from PA & PH unless something else happens. As I said, I'm an American and maybe I just don't get it. While I'm fascinated with English & Scottish history (partly because some of my ancestors came from those areas) and I admire the Queen and her lengthy and loyal service, the notion that members of the royal family will be protected isn't surprising to me. And while I do understand on one level the idea that royalty should be "in touch" with their subjects, on another level I don't understand. Members of the royal family live in palaces and in huge country manors. They have staff to do all kinds of things for them. They wear designer clothes and priceless jewels. They have cradle to grave privileges provided in part by their "subjects." Just how in touch can they possibly be?
I definitely think that Will's would stand up and do something to keep the albatrosses from strangling the Monarchy. We know how he and Catherine think about * as evidenced by his *actions* and words to H before the nuptials and the scarfing incident to name two.
He must be very distressed by what * has done to his brother and how his brother was led down the Primrose Path by the strumpet. H looks NOTHING like he did just a few years ago. So very sad. I know H is not perfect, did not listen to wise Council from PP and Wills, but what we see now is just tragic, empty shell of his former self. I keep thinking of that photo of them in the car after the military event at Royal Albert Hall with the hateful look on *'s face and the absolutely crushed look on his.
However, unlike HMTQ and PC, I think Wills has t he strength to butcher the albatross. His and his children 's legacy depends on it.
He might be very decisive re: cutting H out publicly and permanently. But it's common for those not making final decisions to have and often to express strong opinions about what should be done. And if/when the person actually gets to be in a position to make the decisions, it's not unusual for a more measured approach to be taken. So we'll see or at least some of us will.
Part One
Pearl was already rejected twice. She keeps forcing it to (sic) Netflix. One of my friends is working on the new musicals' writing and producing teams for NetFlix Family. She said Pearl has been rejected and she's still pushing it. NetFlix Family execs are getting pissed off. NetFlix, like Spotify, does not want to deal with her anymore. Then they proposed a story of Diana, but can't get the Al-Fayeds to sign off on the plot since they are pushing a bogus plot. The El-Fayeds said NO. This I got from the two sisters who I know. They even laugh about it and call her mental and needs (sic) psych help. They hate women like Markle and they are keeping her very far away from them.
Part Two
They said Markles' plot is insulting cause she doesn't know they're actually white people and so is (sic) their late half-brother even if they are part Egyptian. She's making more enemies.
I wonder though if NetFlix found out that they were kicked out of the UN because of [their] wearing [of] mics and bringing a film crew during (sic) an important meeting they were not invited to. That's really a bad image to be connected to.
What company will want these two desperate scammers?
This is pretty bad.
Part One
SecondhandCoke: This is some hot tea that I was told today from my source, so it'll be interesting to see if it pans out. As the source says -- and said source is in a position to know.
NetFlix and Spotify want the money advanced for production back now. There is apparently a deadline. If the money isn't returned, the first of the big lawsuits will be filed for breach of contract.
Part two
The impression is that Megan's frantic, repetitive self-hurling at any man with money is a desperate attempt to settle these debts. No dude is buying it. I heard that one dude even said, "Hey, where is your mom these days? Get some advice from your mom." What is certain is that there is no production company that will work with either of them. Also, I know for sure that she is black-balled at Disney and all of its many affiliates.
When I was commenting on her appearance at the NAACP event, I forgot to add that her dress looked like it was made from leftover prop fabrics. The curved slit was crudely and abrusptly cut off at the bottom, obviously shortened for her height. They didn't even bother to make a gentle curve.
Also anyone noticed that she could barely lift her left lip? We also saw this in one of their previous videos. Mrs professional victim will prob say a minor stroke instead of excessive botox.

We'll really be able to tell how reliable the tea is by if they get sued. One DM poster speculated that the reason MM wasn't at the Super Bowl was because she was afraid of getting served by NetFlix. But they could have served Harry as easily as her. Any legal action against them would not be oblivion!
I think there's something about the legal action tea that's accurate. You don't take millions from companies like Netflix and Spotify and just walk away. We may still get some flames!
Thanks for the text of the Telegraph article on the NAACP award. I was hoping for some good ol' British cynicism, but I guess that was in the comments!
And thank you, Maneki, for bringing some of those over. Yes, I am in the United States, and it's so disappointing to hit all the walls surrounding established online foreign media. And then they wonder how social media websites get so outlandish!

I think Netflix is trying to turn out a Diana biopic where the theme will be that the BRF were racist for not allowing Diana to marry a "non-white"man, Dodi Fayed, not realizing that Arabs are considered white and consider themselves to be white.
And people doubted that Netflix was trying to damage the British Royal Family.
* Organisation will receive grant to mark this year's International Women's Day
* Meghan, 40, has been working with Smart Works from her home in California
Cue another appearance on 8th March 🙄. That's easy when it's not your own money. I don't think she did much for Smart Works when she was in the UK anyway.
https://tinyurl.com/2p8vtwbd
1) she returned a chanel purse she "borrowed" from the Smarts Work closet
2) she's donating all of the clothes from the recent appearances. Judith in East London will be thrilled to wear that red ball gown to her interview as a tube operator
3) she's donating $40 because its 40 for 40 or something like that
oh, someone is so desperate to stay relevant in the UK. Not a single similar charity in Los Angeles, or even starting a similar outpost of SmartWorks herself?
I agree with you, and the tea from Marklenews1 seems to confirm it.

Blind Item #8
There are people dying and all the alliterate one cares about is that her message was not acknowledged by the President of that country. Tell you what you can do. Call up the former Housewife and tell her you want to distribute the blankets and sleeping bags the former Housewife is sending to Poland to all the refugees. Actually do something. She won't though. She should. If she did, maybe she would actually have something for Netflix they wouldn't reject.
Ouch! Enty seems to be believing the same tea from Marklenews1 that I do.
there's a blind at CDAN about * losing her mind over not being acknowledged by the president of Ukraine.

I think Snarky's got it. Mrs. Dollar would only donate something that doesn't have much value, and can't be worn. There's not a generous bone in her body.
Thank you for finding this info. I don’t have many social media accounts, so don’t have the ability to
access this tea.
"Mrs. Dollar would only donate something that doesn't have much value, and can't be worn. There's not a generous bone in her body."
Probably. She does have odd ideas. I remember reading M explaining how people should go about donating their clothes to Smart Works. Instead of donating their "ugly" or their last-year's style clothes (& she said many of the donated clothes were ugly and outdated--not a helpful way to increase donations IMO), her suggestion was people should donate "current favorites." She said something like -- "go ahead and donate the favorite blazer you wore when you got your dream job because with a new job you won't need it anymore anyway." So wrong and so weird IMO. Most people DO need their interview clothes to wear at their new job. It's not like a new wardrobe can be bought immediately. And unlike acting jobs, most jobs don't include clothes! Plus why wouldn't that blazer still be a favorite blazer? And my favorite won't necessarily appeal to ANYONE at Smart Works anyway so why give it away simply because I like it? Weird notion of sacrifice IMO. Guess she also meant with more money from the dream job new more expensive "favorites" would be obtained? Because being a favorite depends on cost? But how is increasing consumption somehow virtuous? Thought she and H were claiming to care about the environment. At least a little bit. Just odd.
that reminds me of how * threw a "goodbye Zara" clothes party when she got the recurring role in Suits. She thinks everyone does the same thing.
I do remember reading that she did throw this party.
Also, remember when she brought Archie's hand-me-downs to donate to the poor SA women? Very tacky IMO
Good point. And if it's true Ms. "Soul of Generosity" left clothes in storage in Canada when she moved to the UK, why didn't she simply donate those clothes rather than pay to store them?
She also gets rid of friends she finds no longer in the correct social class, the way she gets rid of clothing with the wrong brand name. She's a user and has no attachment to anything.
Yes! What a great observation! Yes, she has no attachment to anything or anyone including husbands!
I have never heard of someone having a party to get rid of their wardrobe once they can afford more re expensive clothes. How odd!

@DD, Lizzie, GWAH, & Snarky: Yes, when she thought she had climbed high enough on the status/career/wealth ladder where she didn’t feel the need to shop at Zara Mrs. Dumbarton threw herself a party to distribute her affordably-priced clothing to party guests and called the party the “Sayonara Zara” party.
This is incredibly narcissistic behavior that smacks of elitism, grandiosity, haughtiness, and extreme snobbery.
Who in hell throws herself a party to basically announce she has a few dollars in her pocket? Someone who is nouveaux riche, that’s who.
Harry’s wife might have well addressed the invitation with a note that read: “I’m now wealthy enough that I can buy expensive designer clothes. So in all of my magnanimous false generosity, from the high rung of the wealth and status ladder I currently occupy, I have deigned you as one of the little people I am leaving behind who is worthy to dig through my clothes that are no longer good enough for me to wear at my new lofty station of fabulousness.”
This is incredibly tacky, but it is behavior exactly on par for someone with narcissistic personality disorder.
In reality, at the point in her life when she threw this party for herself, she had a couple of bucks, but her “wealth” would not even amount to a drop in a bucket compared to truly wealthy people.
People who have the lèvel of wealth that eclipses what Harry and Meghan have often shop at discount stores such as Marshalls, Ross, T.J.Maxx, Target, Nordstrom Rack, and dare I say it — (deep breath) Walmart. According to American Express, the average customer at Costco warehouse, one of the biggest US discounters, has an average annual income of $100,000 (£74,680).
Most wealthy people didn’t become wealthy by banging the brains out of an easily manipulated prince. They usually worked their asses off to get where they are in life, and while they do like nice things, they still appreciate quality at a reasonable cost and don’t throw their money away just for a designer name tag at full price.
Meghan has gotten where she is in life largely by manipulating, using, and leveraging individuals, mostly men, and not by virtue of any recognizable talent special level of knowledge, or skill. She was an aging, mediocre-at-best actress whose future after Suits was bleak at best who lucked out by parlaying a secondary role as a sexpot into a place in the British Royal Family.
She will likely go down (pun intended) in history as one of the most successful scam artists of the 21st century. She will make Bernie Madoff look like a petty, small-time con artist.

lizzie did she pay to store them?😉 perhaps she left them at a friends house and said i’ll arrange to ship them only to leave the boxes in the basement all this time. now that i could see her doing
@Snarky and Lizzie: Yes, she left a bunch of her clothes and other belongings on this side of the Atlantic, which was one of the first hints that she wasn’t intending a permanent stay in the UK. Another sign was putting The Tig in storage and not truly ending it. She kept the domain name and even added the domain name Tig Tots as a future site aimed at mothers. Gee what a great name to use to merch Archie and Lilibucks!
However, I think that maintaining the business relationship with members of her Hollywood management, public relations, and business associates is an important telltale sign that she married Harry with every intention to return to the US with Harry in tow.
And from reports that have leaked out about discussions with Harry to leave the UK either before they actually married or shortly after, that’s exactly what she quickly did, but it might not be turning out exactly as she had it all planned.
I have never heard of someone having a party to get rid of their wardrobe once they can afford more re expensive clothes. How odd!

The 'Sayonara Zara' party was one of the very first PR pieces I remember reading about Harry's new GF and even then it didn't sit well with me. We didn't know at the time how few true friends Rachel had, so the entire thing was an orchestrated PR stunt in aid of her 'kind, generous, philanthropic' branding message.
'Swap' parties are quite popular these days . . a bunch of girlfriends bring items from their closets they no longer wear, open some wine and trade their stuff for 'new-to-them' stuff from their friends' closets and everybody goes home happy. But that's not what Rachel did. Like the medieval lady of the manor, she thought she would bequeath her generosity upon 'the poor' minions who could only thirst after her Zara cast-offs, they themselves being clad in mere rags, whilst she went on to bigger and better (outrageously expensive) haute couture as the future bride of a prince.
If she wanted to invite some friends over and give them her clothes, fine, but why does this have to be a 'news item'? No one normal or caring or remotely kind would trumpet it about that she'd palmed off her unwanted (ie, no longer good enough for her) clothes on her friends. What do we want to bet that she 'charged' them for the privilege of taking her old clothes away? She might have also donated to Dress for Success or any number of other organizations who help women obtain nicer clothes.
The show she made over giving the impoverished HIV-positive mothers in SA, after forcing them to sit on the floor in a grave cultural faus pas absolutely b*ggered belief. Swanning in in an outfit and jewelry that cost more money than those women will ever see in their lifetimes, she's peddling used baby clothes and making herself into some giant humanitarian because of it?
(The cynical little devil on my left shoulder is whispering into my ear that the 'box of Archie's outgrown baby clothes' was publicized especially to further hammer home the tale that she had a four-month old child who'd grown enough to outgrow an entire box of clothes. Apart from the little onesie she held up, which had been a gift from somewhere and looked to be unworn, honestly, we had no proof that she had any other baby clothes.)
So here, she explained away her lies about her passport and keys taken away, suicide threat etc etc.To me, it sounds like her letter all over again.
These do not exist in her. I don’t believe a narcissist would ever toy with the thought, except to make a sensational statement as she did.
Even if she had a soul, it wouldn’t be tortured. She lives to torture others.
Keep your ears peeled for our new catchphrase:”Cover those trotters!” I haven’t laughed that hard in months.

Most people would think that was a lie, so why even add that level of detail to her story? It would make people think that the whole story was a lie then, which is what happened.
Imo, there's a kernel of truth in there somewhere. We just don't know where. I highly suspect that at some point they were taken away, although probably not for long? Or she just couldnt find them one day in a drug addled craze? Or maybe it wasn't the Palace that took them, but the police?
Or it happened, but not while she was married to H? Happened earlier in life?
Her dad took the keys when he grounded her as a teenager?
It reminds me of the wedding story. Why would she even say all that? There was no reason to spit that story out. I kind of wonder if there's a kernel of truth there, too.
In that they were married earlier, just not the 3 days like she said, it was lots earlier. Or it wasn't with the Bishop. Or maybe it happened with one of her other husbands that they were secretly married earlier than the wedding.
Same with the miscarriage story. There's a kernel of truth there, probably. In that a miscarriage happened to her some time, just not then. Or not with H. Or she was just copying Crissy Tiegen's story to get some attention. Or the surrogate miscarried.
Or maybe none of it in any way true and it's all a figment of her insane mind.
I don't believe the latest tea about her wondering Windsor grounds wailing etc.
For those wondering about this tea, the primary source seems to be Bookworm2 on Instagram. Then it was posted to Lipstick Alley, then marklenews1 on Instagram.
I'm not really buying all of Bookworm's most recent tea either even though I think there's a lot of truth in it. I think there was an incident in Windsor where she was wandering around and the police became involved. Since those rumors came out vaguely before the TOTC where Harry was livid with her and Andy and Anne both blocked her physically from getting near the Queen on the balcony, I think something else happened. I personally -- and totally IMO -- hypothesize that she violated the Queen's boundaries in a major way, e.g., barging in on her in Windsor Castle, maybe after one of her and Harry's fights, which you don't do ever. (Other than during family trips to Balmoral and Sandringham, you always go through her staff if you want to meet with the Queen, even on weekends.)
In any event, I think there was a real breach of the Queen's personal boundaries that united the family against her, and for at least some amount of time, woke Harry up from her spell because she embarrassed him in front of his family. If I'm right, then I think staff and Scotland Yard might very well have then been told to deny MM access to the castle and any royal residence unless she was with Harry.
The wandering through Windsor Park at night -- I think this was Meghan's working on her alibi as in, "I always go walking late at night; I didn't mean to take the Queen by surprise or frighten her when I was wandering around Windsor Castle that night." Similarly, I think her Oprah moment of "I needed to go somewhere for treatment" was probably to cover for one of her subordinates needing to "go somewhere for treatment."
I think she did go crazy after they received Archie and that Harry left her because of it. (One rumor was that she wouldn't let anyone else hold the baby, including Harry, because she was too scared of Archie's bonding with someone else.) Harry went back to NottCott at KP, where she couldn't get to him (because of the new edict), and that's when she started chasing him all over town -- to the polo match, to Jane Goodall's visit, etc.
The other point I wanted to make about Bookworm's video is that while sociopaths are considered mentally ill, they're considered to have a character disorder which is very different than someone suffering from depression or someone with a phobia, etc. Yes, some of the things they do may seem crazy, but middle-class and educated ones usually function pretty well in their day-to-day lives. Generally they make other people crazy because of their cruelty, their games, and their lies. I know we have at least one helping professional on the board, so I'll let them weigh in on this particular point. Suffice it to say I don't think MM should be able to plead mental illness for all of the pain and harm she's done to everyone around her and that seems to be a main point of Bookworm's latest video. That's the part I really disagree with.
That dress was not right for *. As River said, paraphrasing, she should be covered up as much as possible, especially those legs and trotters. IMO she was back to her basic playbook, show as much skin as possible, hence, the long slit to not-that-attractive looking legs, er, trotters.
In a case of thou protest too much, * trotted out the mother to show people that even she has identified as white for her entire life, she has a mother of color.
The Cambridges' statement of support for Ukraine was much in contrast to those of the Maggots whose statement was about themselves, three times over, and not about Ukraine. Tone deaf, and self serving.
Could she have been asked to hand over her phone briefly for some kind of security check?

Royal biographer Tom Quinn said the couple could be planning a royal comeback when Prince Charles becomes king. He told the "To Di For Daily" podcast that they plan to do part-time royal duties.
The Queen was totally opposed to the idea but they think Charles will be amenable to it. I think they just want the best of both worlds, a 'normal' and 'private' life in California and the pomp and luxury and royal protection officers when in the UK. The adulation of the British they won't get. It's unworkable anyway.

@Maneki
They waint be coming back.
The 6's won't stop trying to worm their way back until their last breath. The idea that Charles, of all people, will allow them back is ridiculous. He's the one they hurt the most and keep turning the dagger in the wound.
I haven't heard that one before. Anyone else know anything?
https://www.express.co.uk/news/royal/1572649/prince-harry-Meghan-markle-duke-of-sussex-Mardi-Gras-float-United-States-queen
I completely agree with you that the idea Charles will allow them back is ridiculous. I feel *'s hand in this - she thinks Charles has a soft spot for her and H and that she can slither back in. She did try to flatter him before. If so, I think she vastly overestimates her capabilities. Let's hope Charles won't be weak enough to allow this part-time nonsense.
See in the International Business Times: apparently the duo have plans to return to their royal duties albeit temporarily.
@Maneki Neko: If this is accurate info, then there are several reasons the Sussexes would want to return on a limited/ part-time basis:
A) They need money from Charles, who as King will have far more money to dole out. Because Harry is her puppet, he will be used by Meghan to perform a narcissistic behavior known as hoovering. Hoovering is when after a narcissist devalues you and perhaps even discards you, they draw you back into their web of entrapment because they need to exploit you again for their own selfish gain. But as soon as they get what they want from you, it is likely you will be either discarded again or if they think they may need you again, put on a shelf until they need to use you again.
B) They need to revive their tarnished image, which is hurting their “brand.”
They are attempting to make the public think that after endless scorching attacks on members of Harry’s family, the institution of the monarchy itself and the citizens of Harry’s country, all has been forgiven and they are back in good standing as members of the royal family. This is also likely hoovering behavior. Their reputation among many Americans is that of a pair of toxic pretentious, grandiose, greedy whiners who despise the institution and the people in power in it who provide them with the titles that serve as the foundation of every facet of their stinking life together in California.
I think Charles is not much better than Harry. I view him as naive and feckless. He was fooled Meghan once and he is being targeted again by Meghan, who uses Harry as her proxy. I am hoping Camilla and William will prevent any sort of return by the Sussexes. They will only compound the problems that face the monarchy now and after the Queen passes on.
I would think the backlash from the British public would also influence the royal family to not allow the Sussexes to return to the fold even if it to take out the trash.
B)
Harry apparently leaves uneaten sandwiches lying around, and * sorts everything by colour. That's just the teaser
If anyone has access, please provide more details.
ps glad the queen is back doing some duties.
* thinks her legs are beautiful. She was trying to get Odell I g gig and stated her legs "were a mile long."
@Magatha
Thanks for the humor as always!
I don't believe the latest tea about her wondering Windsor grounds wailing etc.
This link should take you to a transcript of Bookworm2's "latest" (historic) tea on MM. It was posted to Lipstick Alley. The next post after the transcript post is good too.
Post in thread 'Meghan Markle unpopular opinions thread pt 6' https://www.lipstickalley.com/threads/meghan-markle-unpopular-opinions-thread-pt-6.4800055/post-79885903
Totally agree. They will never quit trying to worm their way back in. Being associated with the BRF is all they have to sell.
I hope PC stays strong and holds the line.
I read a few years ago that * was trying to get a modeling gig and told her contact she has "legs a mile long."
How can that be true? She is not very tall.
I saw the The International News mentions a survey:
In a survey carried about Express.co.uk, 97% out of 10,782 participants rejected taking the Duke and Duchess of Sussex back into the country. 😁 Only 3% want them back...
But will this lawsuit get tossed out as well even tho it IS defamation of character? Meghan lied about and smeared her whole bloody family. We're seeing how little the truth matters these days.
https://www.tmz.com/2022/03/03/meghan-markle-sued-half-sister-samantha-oprah-winfrey-interview/
The story about the 6s is in the DM and a few other publications. It might be no more than an idea * wants to push to test the waters.
I think Harry wants to rest the waters, not MM. I think there's trouble in paradise, and he wants to spend at least part of the year in the U.K.
One of these days, * must receive her due.
I recall 2 reports of her being picked up by the police and taken home when she was `under the influence' - once in the Great Park and once in the town, apparently heading for the off-licence. No indication of what was doing the `influencing' in the GP.
Was this what she meant when she said she wasn't allowed out of the house?
