Those first episodes - wow. Not a good look (and holds that since the drop). The silence is deafening from people in high places who previously would at least do blog mentions of support.
People will remember the curtsey probably the long after this is over. It was the essence of just how disrespectful she/their actions was/were to his grandmother, everything the Queen did, stood for and to the people of the UK.
And, as someone pointed out, the only unintended parts were that HM passed early but the intention was that she should know and see it. And, that they both wanted to be there (near HM) right before she passed.
We knew, just like the interviews, that there would be a lot of editing out or deliberate misinformation by implying X when next showing Y while saying Z. So we can expect more of the same for round two.
An example from the trailer is that their security was cut but, as one poster put it, they are omitting that when you leave a job, they take away the company car and corporate credit cards.
Or that cut of the Queen's promise of service from long ago. That was something else (apparently) intending for HM to hear. And yet so easily found by people who are just looking for these "actions which are not as they appear to be". It is like watching Lost. You always had to be paying attention to the whole picture because while they were pointedly waving their right hand, you had to also be tracking the left and scanning the background.
What's remains is their story of how remarkable their relationship is, their meeting, dating but how many different versions can there be? Or what is left for their Show and Tell to the world? What's the encore after this and the book?
Every negative claim is always so vague and nothing ever seems to have legitimate receipts attached to it. And that someone (I read that one was Gail King before and now *'s attorney) claims to have seen these proofs of the links between the Palace and the stories which seemed to cause distress in *. People can say anything short of screaming fire but is there really something which could be taken to a court of law? As one poster put it - something about how even if the Palace had done such a thing, doesn't mean those stories aren't true. Or that if it only says Palace on the caller ID but no specific phone extension, it could also mean that the source could have just as easily been *. Or, someone using someone else's phone.
Good point about possible trying to draw the Palace into a protracted legal battle.
And yet the Palace machine keeps rolling forward without appearing to have any of this register as something worthwhile to respond to. An unaltered trajectory by all appearances.
I read somewhere that they may actually believe that they can reunite with his family at some point down the road.
Given the couple are making all kinds of claims about the monarchy and the people who work within it, limited access to show and teach their kids anything of the centuries of the country's history, customs and traditions (ahem, cough), aren't living in the UK or a Commonwealth, having so much difficulty with his family, nor serving the king in public duties - one wonders what the British Royal family would really gain from the reconciliation show as directed by the couple after so many attempts to appear to undermine the very institution they allow, no insist on maintaining contact (photos, articles and so on) of themselves to be tethered to. I don't have a clue about that.
Comments
I also wanted to comment on a video from the second Netflix release that I have seen posted on social media. In the video she is doing a goofy exaggerated version of the “tootsie roll” dance. It struck me as something that really aged her. I’m 36 as mentioned above and I can remember my babysitters doing the dance move she was. Now my babysitters are closer to 50 years old than 40.
I’ve never posted this much before but wanted to share today. And wish everyone a happy Saturday! I read every comment and have for years now. Cheers :)
I'm sure you are as deeply interested as I am to find out what sort of 'service work' that Harry intends to do. Perhaps we'll be enlightened with "The Duchess Does Dallas" porn video starring Harry's First Wife. They could donate the proceeds to charity, but we know her talons are never going to let go of any money. Harry would probably have to pay people to watch it, and for her award ceremony.
This is odd. Kensington Palace said they did receive something from someone who was not from Netflix or Archwell. KP replied but that reply was ignored. KP certainly did not decline to comment, but could not make a comment as they did not know what was in the 6-part borefest.
@NeutralObserver
Thanks for the article from London Times. I find it rather disturbing. They really do not understand that they are well and truly out and have no role to play in the monarchy.
This is a rinse and repeat of what she subjected her father to over many, many years. Mr. Markle acquiesced to her over and over. There was no end to it, and Mrs. Dumbarton carries this over to her FIL. She is delusional, mean, vile, and crazy.
Mr. Markle produced a monster because he had no idea how to parent, how to set limits, how to say "No."
Thank you for posting the article from the London Times! A really interesting read.

I also recently read some speculation as to whether or not there will be another Netflix series, supposedly in May. It wasn't a confirmed story, just a rumor. Unfortunately, I can't remember where I read it, or I would link to the post. As much as we'd like to think the 5s will pipe down, it makes sense that they would have more that they want to expose the long suffering public to. They've been filming their faux royal tours, their appearances like Uvalde, Invictus, the Jubilee, the Queen's funeral, & who knows what else. It seems endless!

My husband and I are 36 (honestly ha!) and have a son and daughter about the same ages of their alleged kids. So, very similar families and we also live in the USA. I have not received a single card from a family this year that did not include a picture of the children.
@AnnieC: Remember that for a person like Meghan, whose behaviors check the boxes for narcissistic personality disorder, all people are objects to potentially be used for narcissistic fuel, character acquisition, facade management, or monetary or material gain and other forms of fuel.
Like Harry, those children are useful objects — at this time. Perhaps she thinks she will be able to command big $$$ for exclusive photos of them, maybe from a magazine. Another reason to keep them mostly hidden is she plans to place photos of them in her book, which I have heard will be published in the third quarter of 2023 to allow time for her to add content from her experiences at CK3’s coronation in May.
She already uses these children to a certain extent for facade management to portray herself as a loving, doting, caring mother, which is likely as far from reality as the distance from Earth to Mars. Narcs are horrible mothers. Search “narcissists as mothers”.
I recall reading around the time of Archie’s birth that she was trying to sell an exclusive magazine story with photos of Archie and her and Harry that asked in the seven-figure range, but there were no takers. It was likely due to the newspaper and magazine businesses no longer awash in money as they were in the 80s and 90s when this sort of thing happened, and all of the money or at least part of it was donated to charity.
It could also be that there wasn’t that much interest in the Sussexes to pay that kind of money and get a return on it in advertising sales and readers who would buy the publication.
Meghan was primarily looking for a big payday, and I am guessing most of it would be going to her and Harry, but she was about 15 to 20 years too late.
She and Harry will claim their kids’ faces are not usually seen or only partially seen due to security concerns, which is plausible, but I think the security concerns would quickly disappear if they received a big check.
Additionally, a narcissist like Meghan has a difficult time resisting getting her face in the media, especially when she knows the captioning will likely say the photo was shot when they received the Ripples of Hope award, which was likely a brokered deal arranged by Sunshine Sachs, who at the time this award to the Sussexes was announced earlier this year, represented not only Meghan and Harry, but also served as publicists for another of clients, the Kennedy foundation that gave the award. How convenient!
Sunshine Sachs charged both clients big bucks to arrange the award, which efficiently provides publicity for both clients. Basically, SS received payment from two separate clients for what amounts to one project.
Their NAACP Image award earlier this year was likely a similar deal in that at that time, Sunshine Sachs represented both the Sussexes and the NAACP Image Awards.
The reason I know is that in publicity releases for both of these awards, a person at Sunshine Sachs was listed as a publicity/media contact.

I hope and pray the Royal Family keeps their wall of silence. Apologize for WHAT??? The 5’s should be apologizing to them!
They do have an out that they can use, which is Archie's birthday. Even though the date was chosen for other reasons, the harkles could plausibly state that as this 4th b'day is probably the first he will remember, and because they are such devoted parents (ha!), they are forced to send their regrets.
As for Marlene...she'd probably be the first to call someone out for "cultural appropriation". Much Schadenfreude as more is revealed about her entire life being appropriated! Even cornrows are not of African origin: the first known example is on a Venus figurine that is 40,000 years old. From France.
Finally, I bet * is destroying H on purpose. And if he does himself in, she will play the grieving widow and go after someone even richer. Maybe even someone who owns a yacht.
Charles has extended an invitation.
The duo demand to make the total occasion about themselves.
The worst thing Charles or William can do is to meet with Harry- it will have the appearance of appeasement. * will make it about her.
Charles has given them an invitation. What the Harkles are doing is all on them. Not Charles as long as he does nothing else- save them two seats on the second row at the Abbey. That is all he has to do to keep his end of the invite.
But what is she going to bring to the relationship? She has an entire cargo plane full of baggage. She has a long track record of broken relationships. She (allegedly) has two children. Her 'friendships' appear to be transactional in nature. She acts like she doesn't have good sense and, since she isn't that good of an actress, I think that is her reality. She needs to lose the doe-eyed ingenue schtick because she isn't.
Let's see, what else: She spends like she has an entire plantation full of money trees growing out back. She lashes out at the people around her. She is difficult to listen to. She is a bit old to be a trophy wife. (Trophy wife has a difficult job to keep up her appearance because she will be replaced with the slightest sign of aging. We know she appears to have an aversion to hard work.) Her professional appearance can be...well, she can look really good or really bad. With her love of plastic surgery, I can see her morphing into Jocelyn Wildenstein but with a lower budget.
Playing the race card is beneath contempt. The ONLY evidence they have is the brooch worn by Princess Michael when she first met Meghan. That was in extremely poor taste. But considering her father was an actual Nazi, well...
Cracks me up how they want a meeting and apology from the RF. Absolutely delusional.
Rishi Sunak to take on Netflix amid Harry & Meghan accuracy row
Ofcom's powers to be extended to include streaming services with ability to impose fines of up to £250,000
Rishi Sunak will give the broadcasting watchdog the power to take on Netflix for the first time, amid a row about accuracy in the Harry & Meghan documentary.
Ministers are planning to pass a new law that would bring all streaming giants under the jurisdiction of Ofcom and hand it the power to impose fines of up to £250,000.
Viewers would also be able to complain to Ofcom about shows on Netflix, Amazon Prime and other services and see them investigated for breaches of a new code of conduct.
The plans are expected as soon as next year and will form part of the Government's Media Bill, which will also promote "distinctively British content", The Telegraph understands.
It comes after Netflix was criticised for misleading viewers in Harry & Meghan, a six-part documentary series fronted by the Duke and Duchess of Sussex and released over the last fortnight.
A photograph used in the documentary’s trailer, purportedly showing how the couple were hounded by the press, later transpired to have been taken at a Harry Potter film premiere five years before the couple met.
The trailer also included footage that appeared to show photographers scrambling for a shot of the Duke and Duchess as they left a radio station studio in 2018, but in reality depicted paparazzi chasing Katie Price, a former glamour model, outside a court where she had been sentenced for drink driving.
The documentary itself contained a recording of a speech by Queen Elizabeth II, delivered on her 21st birthday in South Africa, that had been edited in an apparent attempt to emphasise a quote about her love of the British Empire.
Royal sources complained that viewers learning about the late Queen and the Commonwealth for the first time from the documentary would be presented with an “appalling and factually inaccurate” account.
Under the broadcasting rules outlined in Ofcom’s code, “factual programmes or items or portrayals of factual matters must not materially mislead the audience”.
On the day Harry & Meghan was released, the regulator was forced to issue a statement reminding the public that while it was “sometimes contacted by people who’ve seen something they found harmful or offensive on a streaming service like Netflix”, it was powerless to take any action.
Michelle Donelan, the Culture Secretary, is hoping to bring forward the Media Bill next year to establish a legal basis for Ofcom to regulate streaming services that are not based in the UK, including Netflix and Apple TV+, which are based in the Netherlands and Ireland respectively.
The watchdog will be charged with drawing up a new “Video-on-demand Code” that is expected to be similar to the rules laid down for the BBC and other terrestrial broadcasters.
It will also be handed new enforcement powers that are likely to mirror those it holds to rap broadcasters for breaches of the code - which include fines of up to £250,000 and orders to comply.
The other major policy planned for the Bill - allowing the Government to sell off Channel 4 - is understood to have been scrapped.
Bob Seely, a Conservative MP who is planning a parliamentary bill to strip the couple of their titles, said new rules would mean the couple would “not be allowed to get away with some of the obvious misrepresentation in the use of images, claiming the images were representing one thing when in fact they were entirely unconnected with Meghan and Harry”.
“I do think on principle that Netflix and other video streaming services should have the same ethical standards as other broadcasters like the BBC,” he said.
Tim Loughton MP, who has criticised the Duke and Duchess for their broadsides against other members of the Royal family, said the documentary had used “highly questionable” editing and should have been regulated in the same way as content from a broadcaster like the BBC, ITV or Channel 4.
“They should be subject to the same criteria,” he said. “That’s the problem with anything that’s now streamed or anything that’s now available on the internet.
“They’re not subject to the same publishing criteria as if it were a hard copy or in the terrestrial media.”
Plans to regulate streaming services were first drawn up in a white paper under Nadine Dorries, the former culture secretary, and had been scheduled to be debated by MPs during the current parliamentary session.
It is understood that Downing Street has accepted proposals from Ms Donelan to carry the plans over under Mr Sunak’s premiership, but sources suggested it was possible they could be delayed until 2024 amid a busy timetable for new legislation.
A Netflix spokesman said the company was "supportive of the measures to update the legal framework and bring our service in the UK under Ofcom's jurisdiction" but did not comment on claims of inaccuracy directed at the Harry & Meghan documentary.
Ofcom was contacted for comment.
This is all about control on KCIII’s day.

Exactly so. KCIII does not *need* a couple of snakes in the abbey. Those two, however, are in far greater need of showing that they are still considered members of the family.
I would not want them there. I would not trust them.
KCIII i think is betting they won’t come because if they do they will make it all about them.
i am curious with the speculations few boards back that they were hard up for money and asked for money the condition wants neither come back or only harry comes back without her. curious if this is a thing how they will play it out. could have been legit. extending the invite is for harry to make a decision once and for all what he’s gonna do. kinda like a deadline. then again the money and conditions could have been misinformation
SARAH VINE: Why I feel deeply uneasy at William's treatment of Lady Susan – and the way she's being sent for 're-education'
https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-11549833/SARAH-VINE-feel-deeply-uneasy-Williams-treatment-Lady-Susan.html
* He saw a photo of her on IG post of a mutual friend and contacted her. (So they lied about a blind date. Why? Who is this mutual friend?)
* They met for a drink at Soho House. He was late; she left after half an hour to have dinner with friends. (Not unusual for the woman to choose the place for a first date but Soho House is a bit tacky for a prince. She managed to get his phone number though!)
* She contacted him the next day to arrange a date as she was only going to be around for two days. They had dinner and I think that was also at Soho House. She had him hooked by the end of the date and he would fly to Canada to see her within two weeks, but stay at Jessica's house because Cory was still living with her. (Would he have contacted her if she had not phoned him? Why did a prince not realize that he should be more cautious? To rush into such an intense relationship with someone not in your circle is highly risky for anyone but hugely problematic for a prince who was a working royal at the time.)
* She then joined him on a trip to Botswana where she persuaded him that she loved camping out in the bush in a small tent and peeing in the bush. (Does he not wonder why after she got the ring on her finger only private jets and luxury holiday mansions in exotic locations were good enough for her? Does he not ask what he fell in love with and what he married and that something does not add up?)
Why did they lie in the engagement interview? Why did she tell a different story in her Tatler interview? Are they lying now? Do they know what the truth is?
They want money from Charles and the monarchy because they are greedy, not because they need it.

Supposedly Anderson Cooper is going to interview him about the book. Although I am familiar with him, I do not know how savvy he is and if he will do his research. He is the son of the iconic poor little rich girl who lost his brother in a tragedy. I wonder if he can be objective and smell the BS.

It looks like the photographer was somebody that the child was more familiar with than mommy and daddy and was desperately trying to get away from them.
Andy Cohen is the presenter and Executive Producer to a lot of Reality type programmes, eg The Real Housewives etc 😀
It appears that Naked Toddler was going to person taking the photo for rescue from 'mommy' and 'daddy'.
This whole "William yelled at me and I was TERRIFIED!" strikes me as extremely funny. We know what you are married to, Harry. You get yelled at on a regular basis and, yes, you DO look terrified. It isn't because of William!
Either the Dumbartons are in or they are out and imho extending an invite merely plays to their money for nothing in/out agenda. The only apology I want to hear is from QEII for allowing the marriage in the first place but too late for that.
O/t though it has been raised, I am most intrigued to learn that families in america plaster photos of their offspring on Xmas cards. I have never seen such a card. Over here, perhaps, that would be seen as a bit too much in your face. The ones I see have either angels/nativity scene or flying reindeers plus fat man in red.

The outrage from the Lovies was to be expected I suppose.
At one time it was considered normal for doting parents taking their babies to a professional photographer to have them photographed naked, lying stomach down on a fur rug. My family photos include a shot of my cousin (b.1940), She looks so sweet, no pervy overtones were seen in then. Think of all those naked baby Jesuses (Jesi?) in Renaissance painting.
I agree, he looks as if he was attempting escape.
I would say that most Christmas cards are still the latter; the ones that are of family are a way of keeping in touch with far-away family members that don't see each other often (or ever) since it is a large country. I have to say that Christmas cards are largely a relic of the past. Most people send e-cards or greetings by social media.

Anderson Cooper is indeed a "real" journalist, but he's also a company man. So if he's told to lob softballs at the Harkles, that's what he'll do.
I'd call him a talking head rather than a real journalist. He's firmly on a chain. I completely agree that he will do whatever his masters tell him to do.
Anderson Cooper. this will be interesting. on one hand yes he’s a company man but mgmt of cnn changed and they have ousted a bunch of high profile people (don lemon demoted brian seltzer fired ) and anderson cooper was born of emends wrath and privilege (he’s a vanderbilt american royalty). also i recall his brother commuted suicide. he may be softball on the mental health issue. i doubt he will challenge on that
Who was taking the photo? Why was a toddler completely unsupported in a bathtub of water?

I'd say their resident photographer took the photo. He must have been busy as every facet of their lives seems to have been documented. I looked at the photo, Archie is naked but there is nothing on show and H is supporting his stomach.

Of course * is doing it on purpose. That is what narcs do. They derive pleasure from it and know exactly what they are doing. Very cruel. So the whole “kindness” and humanitarian act is totally fake. It take a long time for the victim to reconcile that the destruction rained on them by the narc is intentional behavior, especially when they don’t treat anyone else like that so are socially perceived as “kind.”
Yes. It says more about her then it does about Clarkson and underlines what somebody said earlier regarding the double standard applied to women and men, with regard to certain kinds of behaviour.(I couldn't find the post to check who published it. Sorry)
TBW, on the contrary, ignored the memo and would wear another colour to stand out, like at the christening.
I think courtiers are so tired of the stream of nonsense coming out of their mouths that no one is bothering to point out the lies and the contradictions, and people are just moving on.

By the way, I think the rant from Jeremy Clarkson was unnecessary and lacking in the witty use of words he used to display in his columns. But it is an indication of just how annoyed people are, and they have the right to say so.

That's why they will never get one. Nobody knows what they should apologize for.
Picture Kate saying: Do they mean apologize for when I burnt the pot roast? William: No, maybe they mean when I didn't let him win at polo. Charles: I'm guessing when I didn't give him the duchy of Cornwall, could that be it? Camilla: No, I think it was when I said no when he wanted to dress up as Hitler again. Andrew: I know! It was when you paid to make my little problem go away but told Haz you out of money now!

I know that Xmas is not so big a thing in America as in England where stretching festivities out for two weeks is usually a doddle but when I hear endearments such as Happy Holidays I cringe; there is a reason for the celebrations and it is not just the passing of the winter solstice and whatever ones religious beliefs the correct term (I am looking at you Earl Dumbarton) is Merry Christmas.
this is the story of * being caught taking pictures inside Kensington Palace.
What a tempest has been created in this teapot agitated by this smug poseur of a “charity director” in her tatty Wakanda costume. The more the Palace tries to patch it up by sucking up to the Wokies, the more ammunition they give the opposition. The fact that William rang in with his scathing remarks against his godmother just inflates the opposition’s claim of offended grievance even more. They are delighted at having discomfited the senior royals into making such a public display of groveling. Lady Susan being sent for “re-education” sounds positively communistic. Very Manchuria Candidate-esque.
The picture of Lady Susan and the ersatz Ngozi was actually quite nice. Lady Hussey is a real lady, gracious in the face of such humiliation. Does sending her for re-education mean she us to be reinstated in her role? Is keeping her unpaid job as the QC’s companion worth it?
Lady Susan works for Camilla, so any statement about the incident should by rights have come from Camilla’s office at Clarence House. Why was William sticking his oar in? Since he was in Boston when it happened, someone in Blighty obviously advised him about it. Did he consult with his father prior to excoriating his godmother for an exchange he only heard about third-hand? One supposes the King has bigger fish to fry; has KCIII deputized William to deal with anything Sussex-adjacent? KC doesn’t want Camilla in the crosshairs, but any statement really should have come from her. Lady Hussey does not have any sort of operational role in Palace administration. She does not set policy. She does not write speeches. She is not a senior adviser. She is a genteel lady greeting people at a reception. She wasn’t even in charge of the guest list. She is innocuous, as were her questions to the aggrieved. Having Kensington Palace and William get involved elevated a small flap at a ladies’ tea party into an institutional failure, and created an international incident— Exactly what Ngozi and her handler wanted.
The invitation to Marlene to come back for a photo op is an attempt at clean-up by the Palace. Let’s hope we hear no more about this silly fracas over nothing. It would have been even better if some of the clients from Sistah Space had been invited to accompany Marlene for tea with Lady Susan and Queen Camilla, where the conversation could deftly have been turned back to the women who are being helped, and not on Marlene’s pique at being questioned about her provenance. But due to Marlene’s attention grabbing polarizing stunt, along with a number of unanswered fiscal irregularities, it looks like Sistah Space’s days are numbered. Oh, dear Ngozi, oh dear. Markled ourselves, have we?
Lady Susan didn’t want to end her 60 years of service on that sour note, and I don’t blame her. Being the bigger person always means being humble enough to concede, even when not at fault. Killing them with undeserved kindness. An invitation to the coronation for the traitorous tossers will be in the same vein. When your opponent is spoiling for a fight, refusing to give them one is more infuriating than giving it back to them.
Lady Hussey was the Queen’s rock after the death of Philip, accompanying HM to the Duke’s funeral and often seen with the Queen in the car going to church. Let’s hope William has apologized to his godmother for what he felt compelled to say.

Well, well, well. As ever nothing is as it seems with her `parents'.
(I tracked this down from a comment which I failed to get a link for, and then couldn't find again, but it gave me enough clues to fond it)
Which came first - the `christening photo' or the ad? Did they just pinch someone else's photo or have they created copies as a merching tactic, or is somebody trolling them?
I have posted links and and info regarding HG Tudor on this blog many times. His content is fabulous, he’s either a self diagnosed or diagnosed sociopathic narcissist, but an evolved one who helps individuals deal with his kind as he puts it. 😁
“Meghan is the worst thing we’ve done to the British since 1776.”
"harry’s energy: currently he sees his wife meghan being in a fit of hysterics and madness, he sees his (her) jealousy and his (her) feelings transform into rage (silence of the brief) he observes meghan’s mental imbalance.
He moved away from her while waiting for her to come to her senses, he is with the children far from her, currently the communication around the sussex comes from meghan.
with the tarots, the losses resulting from their documentary always continue to rage, and continue to drive meghan mad, there is a departure, a situation or a behavior which is brought to light, a war is declared on Charles (they hope to obtain Something)"
https://mysteriouslytransparentwitch.tumblr.com/post/704005721510068224/energy-harry-tarot-oracle
"meghan energy; yeah, she’s in the middle of a crisis, she can’t stand the silence of the brf, she’s determined to go to war with the brf, she’s heartbroken to see that her actions don’t affect the schedule of the brf (I believe that the success of the visit of william and catherine + the silence of the brief) it’s too much for her, emotionally, she will do something in not very long, I have a notion of speed, except that she will closing doors and possibilities.
with the tarots: meghan is mentally disturbed, she can’t stand this situation, she’s going to take or do something stupid without thinking, she thinks it’s going to be a new start for her, she hopes a lot except that it’s going to end badly for her, this end will be difficult, it will be brutal"
https://mysteriouslytransparentwitch.tumblr.com/post/704003690404659200/meghan-energy-tarot-oracle
"energy of King Charles 3; ok there is abundance and a lot of sweetness around Charles, I feel the presence of children around him, his heart filled with joy and love, sweetness and laughter (little louis, we see you) ok , we have something happening that will allow Charles to see an exit, this storm comes from Meghan, she is angry because she gets nothing from the brf except her silence, she is completely crazy right now , she wants to obtain power, titles and money from the brf, but her plot will allow Charles to advance his pawns, it seems…
with the tarots: we have the couple (h&m) yes there is something which arrives, which will attack the brf but which will be disastrous for h&m they will be able to release charles in its action."

Very good post about Ngozi-Gate. I feel William, Lady Susan's godson, swift statement was a knee-jerk reaction but this little to-do coming just after the poisonous Netflix docu-soap, I think he/the Palace felt they had to address this case of so-called racism. I don't think Lady Susan will be reinstated and Marlene/Ngozi could have asked for the 'sanction' to be lifted. I'm sure privately Lady Susan still has Camilla's support.
Buckets of tea ... what do you think?
Under the post, there is a great discussion on the tea and how reliable it is.
No mention of a certain actress in California but very true and very apt. Excerpts:
The British now feel it is ‘obligatory’ to express emotion in public rather than maintain a ‘stiff upper lip,’ Dame Sheila Hancock has said.
The actress, 89, said that public displays of feeling have become fashionable, with crying viewed as a ‘badge of honour’.
. . .
But now the obsession with showing your feelings at all times has become ‘hollow and meaningless’, she added.
‘How has being emotional become obligatory? Since when was it a badge of honour to cry?’ she wrote in Prospect magazine.
‘When I was young, being brave meant hiding your tears. Through bombing, separation, threat of invasion, hunger and death, the ethos of the “stiff upper lip” and “grin and bear it” prevailed. A precept that TBW would do well to follow.
In my opinion, no one in the BRF owes them an apology. The following could be appropriate: 'I am so sorry that you are unhappy and filled with grievances and resentment and a desire for revenge for perceived slights. I hope that you can get out of this negative space and rebuild a loving and trusting relationship with your families.'
The message in the above article just invites engagement (really bad when dealing with toxic malignant narcissists) and encourages them to continue on their present path.

I love this comment:
`There is more appealing life to be found in a piece of rotting cheese. ’
Thank you, Elizabeth Prior
General belief is that there isn't a lot of love lost between the two, so why this now
but I can already hear the claims of why not us too from Montecito?
Might it have conditional terms like only in the UK IF (and that's a big if) there is any validity to it?
Could this be just taunting (intended or not)? One of the problems with viewing the press as this awful lens is that anything said by them is always filtered through it and when you have gone out of your way to let your feelings be known, they don't exactly have to always play nice on their side to suck up when they know it won't do any good.
I kind of think there is a cobbling together two things, removal of the protection and the duo are in the news plus this is a known hot topic for them. But it could always be any, all or none of the above.
The christening photo looks nothing like Lilibet, in my opinion. Certainly nothing like the photos we've seen purporting to be of her. Do we even know what she really looks like?
I have listened to quite a few of his videos. He tends to repeat the same stuff over and over again. What I found most interesting, however, is that he classifies her as a mid-range narcissist. If I understand him correctly, this means that she is completely unaware of what 'drives her' and thus is actually more dangerous. She is convinced that she is honest and caring and brilliant and right and powerful and knows everything and will triumph ... hence she keeps doing the same stuff and escalates rather than self-corrects. That is why nothing is ever her fault.
I have not listened to HG Tudor in quite a while. What does he have to say about the hold she has over the hapless one and the likelihood of the 'spell' being broken? He must be aware that she lies, that she exaggerates her own abilities, that she is ruthless with using and discarding other people, and much more. He has even let her merch the children in the documentary. Tarot readers and various others on social media are adamant that the couple are heading for a breaking point and that he will take the children and leave her. What would it take for that to happen?
Personally, I do not think that will ever happen. She does not even care if he fools around with other women, as long as he stays by her side when she requires him to be there, holding her hand and supporting her in whatever she says and does. Plus, he is surrounded by people who reinforce her brainwashing, including the shady live-in mother-in-law.
Some of the smoke and mirrors stuff on that link was a bit outlandish.
The Queen was notorious for being non confrontational, so banging on the Duo’s door is unthinkable! I also don’t buy either few or no peerage being invited to the coronation. 🫤
Otherwise an interesting read and thank you!
That is not Lilli in the photograph. The SussexSquad do crazy stuff like this ... find a photo, create a story, and post it as if it is of the family that they worship.
Americans ... in America, can a child be christened at home? I was christened at home (there was not a church in our village at the time and the priest would visit once a month and conduct whatever religious ceremony in a home). I think in the UK it must be done in a church and is open to the congregation (and thus the public). Royals tend to use churches that are difficult for the public to access, like the private chapel in Windsor Castle or the one in St James' Palace. I also assume that it is custom that prevents members of the public from barging in for a royal wedding, christening or funeral.
Twitter responds to allegations by Christopher Bouzy that MM was attacked by hate Twitter accounts. Twitter says researched their files and no evidence of this. Another provable lie!
Nate the Lawyer is suing Bouzy for defamation who reportedly continued to spread lies that Nate was not a real lawyer nor was he ever a cop, undermining Nate’s ability to have a career. Nate’s case is solid. Btw, Nate is a lawyer.😃🤣
Video is ~17 minutes in length
They were spotted in the Bahamas, on a yacht.
Brilliant article! Unfortunately, it will not be read and understood by most and the madness will continue.
Of course, that's not the child we have been shown as `Lilibet'! I was pulling your leg.
The pretty little redhead may be somebody else and this is the real Lilibet. Or she's a child model employed for the dress photoshoot and they've used someone else's photo. The `real' Lilibet, if she exists, may be none of the above, or this really is her...
You pays your money and you takes your choice.
CofE baptism can take place anywhere; in an emergency anybody can perform the service. We've had several infants `done' during morning Mass in my parish church - the Rector conducts the service but it's been a family member who has signed the cross on the child, the mother, father or young sibling. This may have originated recently as a Covid precaution.
There are 2 rules only: water and the Trinitarian formula have both to be used, so the act is done `...in the name of the Father, Son and Holy Ghost'. In a home-birth emergency, with a new born that seems to be at death's door, midwives have been known to baptise using the kitchen sink.
To be on the safe side, it's regarded as `provisional baptism' on the assumption that it was done properly but the ceremony is repeated formally later, in case there was a mistake!
It seems to me that any employer - and for these purposes the PoW is an employer - should never publicly ball-out a member of staff (whatever might be said in private). Publicly shaming an employee is beneath contempt for that is to use ones staff for ones own purposes. An employer rightly expects an employee to - as it were - leave the affairs of the business at the office and in like manner an employer should keep the affairs of the firm especially where it relates to an employee private. To have trashed an eighty-three year old woman is beneath contempt.

so rumors that prince louis maybe doing the church walk. i saw someone mention would it be great if he ran up held grandpa’s hand
Here is the smoke & mirror post. Part 1
New Tea: Unfortunately I can't share everything that I have learned but I know you are all smart enough to understand what I'm saying.
* King Charles III has become a huge problem/hindrance for this whole situation.
* He doesn't and won't close any doors on Harry.
* Prince William wants to see how Harry is once he gets away from that woman!
* KC3 wants a relationship but won't accept it is lost.
* Harry has been making trips over to see his father and try to plan a way out for him and the children. There are a lot of stipulations that go with this scenario. The ONLY WAY THIS WORKS IS IF MEGHAN IS NEVER ALLOWED BACK IN, AT ALL!
* The MAJOR concern that I know has been questioned on here is what or is Harry being given or taken. The concern is that something will happen to him not by his own doing, but planned by 2 others to get everything. This is a SERIOUS AND REAL CONCERN!
* There are two scenarios for Harry, Meghan, and the children to go to the UK. It is being planned that way for a reason.
* I know KCIII doesn’t get it, he really doesn’t understand PH and thinks he can ‘straighten it out.’ POW’s want PH to be separated from the TW to see if there anything to salvage, hence why he will be put into local exile. His biggest heartbreak is the children.
* They know everything that has been done or is being done and have professionals watching/weighing in/and advising even Harry on certain mental health concerns and conditions, not just of his.
* There was a huge issue because QEII literally knocked on their door and demanded in. That was part of the reason MM wanted out of the UK. Because when HMTQ knocks, you have to let her in. She just wanted to see her great grandchild.
* MM was exceedingly cruel to HMTQ, KCIII and PW, but she is the same with her family.
* Meghan also wanted to go to Balmoral when The Queen was dying so she could get pictures.
* He is going to piss off the entire peerage system in the UK and that is his base support. The palace courtiers job is to advise the King on such matters.
* He is also planning on cutting out most of the peerage from the ceremony which is a huge huge mistake.
* Most of the courtiers and staff are extremely unhappy with KCIII and his refusal to put up boundaries with his son and the fact that a coronation is a state affair not a family party. But again this may just be his way of getting his son and grandchildren home.
* The major concern is that KC3 essentially ruin the Monarchy and still end up without one son bc he either won't come home or bc something nefarious happens to him.
* One thing the palace may have forgotten is that this has to take place at the coronation.
It said the author had deleted the post but somehow I found it. I think some of the statements need to be taken with a pinch of salt.
Part 2
* I have said before that if Harry returns to the UK he will be required to see a psychiatrist.
* The couple also have a prenuptial agreement and as I've stated with DivorceWatch2023 there is a new pre-seperation agreement in order.
* When the book bombs it will change from DivorceWatch2023 to DivorceWarning2023.
* Ngozi Fumani (Marlene) is in a lot of trouble! It wasn't just her behind this idea, but the Lead Sussex Head and allegedly Meghan.
* Her charity and everything else she has touched is being investigated as we speak! She is likely facing criminal charges.
* The people who need to know, know. But Bouzy, the Squad, and whoever hired him and paid them are going to be exposed.
* It will be known they suppressed our Freedom of Speech and there will be a domino effect from this. Their leader will be exposed, even though it is known who it is.
* The money schemes and scams that were being run at the start of the marriage up until now are known and the IRS are biding their time. There was a lot of money laundering.
* The investigations and closing of charities and businesses will last years. It is a huge deal.
* I have been told that nothing is going to be done until after everything comes out, that way they can make the best and most informed decisions.
* The Royal Family is taking a breather during the holidays and just enjoying the time together.

Another Netflix docu-sh¡te, as if we didn't have our fill of the Harkles' twaddle. 'Inspiring leaders', do we need those two to tell us? And Greta does not inspire me (and many others). Inspiring leaders is what TBW wants to be, or worse, thinks she is.
Anger mounts over Camilla lunch attended by Jeremy Clarkson and Piers Morgan
Mon, 19 December 2022 at 1:49 pm GMT
Grossly unfair.
Camilla isn’t a clairvoyant - Clarkson had said nothing wrong when he was invited.
Not a word about H & * trashing that other woman, our 96yr-old, dying, Queen. Or do only `young’ ones of certain political views count?
They make me sick.
The attitudes attributed to Charles in the tea post don’t really jibe with Harry saying “My father won’t take my calls” and Charles wishing his son and wife all the best “overseas”. I see so many posts claiming to know exactly what Charles state of mind is and is intentions, labeling him a “Simp“, declaring that he’s going to give Duke of Edinburgh to Harry and reinstall the ginger Twatt to active service, blah blah blah. His actual words and demeanor thus far do not indicate any of this. I do not expect him to publicly denounce Spare, And as galling as it may be, I don’t expect him to revoke the titles either. I’m sure an invitation to the Coronation will be forthcoming as well. KCIII seems to be following in TQ’s footsteps of choosing the path of least drama. Blandly and vaguely acknowledging them as “family” while ignoring them as much as possible. I wouldn’t confuse this with actual support of Bimbo and Chimpo. It remains to be seen what poisonous bilge will be vented in Spare’s book, Particularly about Camilla, but the Crown’ s most potent weapon is silence. I think it would be a mistake for the palace to acknowledge a single item in the Netflix program or the book. More effective to quietly lift the super injunction on the media and let them tear strips off B &C while leaving no fingerprints. If Charles wants to ensure that he is the last King of the House of Windsor, kowtowing to Chimpo would certainly help that along. Charles studied history; is he that stupid?
I will leave that as a rhetorical question, but I certainly hope not. Until the recent Ngozi debacle, he was off to a brilliant start. Let’s not spoil it, Your Majesty.
Re the fear that 'something' may happen to Harry, didn't Doria's father die under cloudy circumstances (his dog allegedly tripped him) and Doria conveniently inherited the house?
My opinion is that Harry is going to be an ongoing problem no matter who has custody of him, whether it is his wife/handler/manipulator or his father/sibling.
This is truly shocking ... how dare they seek glory for themselves by using these people? Nelson Mandela? Albie Sachs? And it goes on ...

This is not good!
By the way, the documentary is a collaboration with the Nelson Mandela Foundation. I think they had a huge influence on the content. I have downloaded the latest annual report for the Foundation but the quality is too low for me to nake out the details of financials.
‘There are always people who are never going to be happy’: Toronto police chief hits out at Meghan as he rejects claim his force failed to protect her when she started dating Harry
* Police Chief James Ramer has responded to claims made by Duchess of Sussex
* She alleged that officers did little to protect her when she was living in Toronto
* But Mr Ramer has insisted his officers 'did an excellent job' ensuring her safety
* He also added: 'There are always people who are never going to be happy.'
. . .
He told the Toronto Sun newspaper: ‘I was deputy chief at the time, in charge of the special enforcement command that oversaw that situation, and can tell you the officers did an excellent job.
‘Our officers were extremely professional. I oversaw the area that protected VIPs and I fully support the work they did there.’
..........
TBW was not known in Toronto, whatever she might say, so she wasn't pursued by paparazzi. He's also right when he says that 'There are always people who are never going to be happy.'
Wow ... talk about American arrogance! I suppose the New York Times is full of stuff like this.
Interesting ... Neil Sean says every scene was rehearsed and for some there were multiple takes.
Caught out on another lie.
What disturbs me most is that young people support her and are experts online so they know how many lies have been exposed but do not seem to care.
I agree with your post upthread re the attitudes attributed to Charles in the tea post. I was only copying & pasting. I've come to the conclusion that for the time being, it's more prudent for Charles not to rock the boat. Denouncing the Harkles' accusations would only invite a counterattack from them.
@Sandie
There was another article in the DM today about the NY Times. Absolutely sickening and deranged.
NYTimes sparks outrage over opinion piece demanding that Britain's 'racist' Royal Family is dismantled and suggesting 'beacon' Meghan had to pay with 'her life' to marry into the institution
Article is the latest by the New York Times to criticize the UK
--------
The article in the NYT is by a Roxane Gay. Surprise, surprise, she's a 'person of colour', so will blindly defend her 'sister'.
I couldn't read any more of that piece of garbage. I presume the NYT is woke?
I thought KCIII doesn't issue the invitations; that is up to the man that does the planning for the ceremonies..
The despicable duo would like people in America think that, it isn’t the case. It’s actually quite personal. For William’s wedding he had a say in who attended from friends and family. He had to invite the other royal families and other dignitaries, but it’s far more personal after that. The King’s coronation will no doubt have the dignitaries as well, but regard to family, that’s his choice. Lady C said Edward VIII expected an invitation to his brother’s coronation, it wasn’t forthcoming! 😁
Gretha Thurnberg and Gloria Steinman are not leaders; they are activists. Waleed Aly is a lecturer and TV personality. Stephen Curry is a basketball player ... very impressive guy but a leader? Siya Kolisi is a rugby player but also the captain of the national team and led the team to World Cup victory. These are all impressive, exceptional and inspiring people, but not all of them for leadership. (Those I have not mentioned obviously were or are leaders.)
It is like her podcast ... she misuses a term to suit her agenda. I am perhaps being too draconian about the definition of leadership, but I just get the feeling that they inserted this word because they want to be assiciated with it and not because it fits the series.

Wow ... talk about American arrogance! I suppose the New York Times is full of stuff like this.
New York Times has been the American Communist Party News for a very long time.
My two cents from the above posts:
~ Lady Hussey wanted to meet with Marlene herself. The apology was not from BP - it was from Lady H to Marlene. Marlene mouthing off on National TV is what drew the attention to the charity. How the Harkles drew that the Palace apologized to Marlene therefore they will apologize to us....is beyond me.
~ Of course * wants to be involved in the talks - this IS her life with H and she is being shut out. She must have really been p.o.'d at being shut out of the Sandringham Summitt, and one can drew their own conclusions regarding H to Balmoral when HMTQ was dying.
~ KCIII wants a reconcilation. I believe that. So who is King - Charles or Harry, as this is about control.
DM is late to the party! I suppose the publication of articles such as this is the price we pay for freedom of speech. The alternative, which the woke fanatically pursue, is to embrace fascism and oppression, which is really not good for humanity. What I find most disturbing is that many, including the youth, embrace such views even in the absence of evidence and when all evidence shows that it is not true.
Mandela would never support the divisive and destructive sentiments and views the idiots pair encourage; nor would he approve of their lavish material lifestyle.
On the other hand, the review posted at the link above is supposedly from a liberal media outlet. I am relieved that true liberals do still exist.
I like your expression "manure-disturber", it's very colourful! You could also say shit-stirrer, which in *' case is very apt.
@Humor Me
KCIII wants a reconcilation. I believe that. So who is King - Charles or Harry, as this is about control.
.....
I think Charles does want a reconciliation as a father. I believe he is very sensitive and must be hurting to have lost his son. It's only natural. That said, it doesn't follow that he wants him back in the fold as a royal. As a son who is not involved in the RF in any shape or form, yes but not as a working royal. I'd say William is rather involved behind the scenes and wouldn't countenance H's possible return to royal life.
'Prince Harry and Meghan Markle announce they have 'organised Christmas gifts for more than 30 reunified and refugee families' at the US and Mexico border'.
Did they dip their hands into their pockets? (Rhetorical question). What about gifts to Thomas Markle? Anyway, true philanthropists keep their donations quiet.
I always get the sense that they do these stunts to get attention and bolster their false image.
Lovely to make sure vulnerable and people in dire straits get Christmas presents, but why make a big announcement? If they need to be accountable to people who gave them the money they are using for stunts like this, then make detailed annual reports and financial statements available.
The royal family do have to announce what they do because they serve the British public and are financially supported by the public to do so. PR is part of it (and my personal opinion is that they sometimes get too caught up in this aspect), but it is mostly about accountability.
I think the duo and their supporters do not understand the difference.
Millions of people all over the world help others every day and do not make a public announcement nor look for recognition and praise. Churches have made it their business to do just that for hundreds of years.
I really am disturbed about the example they set and the values they teach the selfie generation.
This version has her collapsing on the driveway as she went to greet her friend who arrived to stay.
The NYTimes is hanging on by a financial thread. Every year I read of layoffs and the corporation has had to rent space in their building to pay for taxes, etc. It no longer has the status as the newspaper of record owing to their obvious political bias.
I absolutely believe the King wants Mole back within the family, Lady C has been saying this too. However, I also agree it absolutely doesn’t mean he’d ever have a public royal role again. I don’t think the royal family desire it and the British public wouldn’t stand for it. 🫤
Yankee Wally back on youtube and on twitter - @yankeewally2
Yay! the bad guys lose another inning!
Jacinda Arden makes it quite clear that her involvement in the latest documentary had nothing to do with the duo, who 'hijacked' the project at a very late stage.
Good on Charles! I think there definitely is hope for him if he made this move.
In need of image rehabilitation?

And yet they live in California, a place where the division between the people that are wealthy beyond avarice and the poorest of the poor with increasingly few in between is horrific. They can't be bothered to do anything to alleviate the poverty where they actually LIVE. They have security guards to shoo away the poor. Oh, you're going to help 30 illegal invader families? What about the well-being of the families in California whose jobs are being legislated out of existence?
Next installment of analysis of mockumentary coming up from The Behaviour Panel. These guys are experts but are usually fair.
Jacinda Ardern makes it clear that her implication was with the Nelson Mandela Foundation. She never spoke or was implicated with the *s.
“ Oh, you're going to help 30 illegal invader families? What about the well-being of the families in California whose jobs are being legislated out of existence?”

Yes, exactly! 🤬
The Body Language Panel video has been posted. It is long-winded but has some gems so stick with it. They picked up body language signals from him that the chance of divorce is very high. I found that interesting but I have always thought that the relationship is toxic but there is a mutual co-dependency that will keep them wedded for many years, if not a lifetime. Anyway, I hope they analyse all the videos because they always manage to pick up something that I and others miss.
Girl with a Hat said: Jacinda Ardern makes it clear that her implication was with the Nelson Mandela Foundation. She never spoke or was implicated with the *s.
Can you imagine working on what you believe to be a worthwhile project, only to have a couple of pretenders trying to bask in reflected glory being the spokesmen for your hard work? Even worse, with the S&M show, a large number of people are going to suspect it as being fraudulent, and then you are forever associated with their fraud.
There are plenty of people in this country LEGALLY who need help. The Harkles don't care about them. They don't care about the "refugees" either. They just want publicity.
and, with the revelations about Twitter and the FBI being involved in social media to control information, I think that the whole trend about Disinformation is dead in the water. In fact, people who jumped on that bandwagon are going to be laughed at. Markled again!
@Swamp Woman, THANK YOU! The vast majority of people swarming our southern border are NOT refugees but rather economic migrants with a dose of terrorists, drug smugglers, and sex traffickers thrown in. Thousands of children disappear into sex rings, while tens of thousands of Americans die from fentanyl ODs. My transplant surgeon told me that most of their organ donors these days ODed.
There are plenty of people in this country LEGALLY who need help. The Harkles don't care about them. They don't care about the "refugees" either. They just want publicity.
The *only* reason for the open borders are to facilitate the flow of illegal narcotics and underage sex trafficking. The abused children are not going to be turned loose when their purchasers tire of them as they get older because they can't take the chance of an older child testifying against them. Government officials that agitate for open borders are profiting from all of it, all of the death, violence, overdose deaths and ruined lives.
The Meghan and Harry Reality Show took a stand and it wasn't with the righteous.

Princess Beatrice gave Harry and Meghan the nod to film at Queen's cottage
Princess Beatrice, one of the few royals still in communication with Harry and Meghan, gave her permission for them to film at the Queen's outsize Wendy house at Windsor Castle for their Netflix entertainment. Called Y Bwthyn Bach, it was a sixth birthday present to Princess Elizabeth from the people of Wales in 1932. In 2010, HM passed custodianship of the house to Princess Beatrice, who oversaw a year-long renovation before inviting Andrew Marr inside for The Diamond Queen for the BBC in 2012, the first time television cameras had been allowed in. But when she allowed access to the Montecito Two did she know they would be smirking over their tea as they monetised one of the Queen's most private retreats
when vacationing in Istanbul before * met her victim, I mean future husband, she took identical pictures at the identical spots that Cressida, Hairy's ex, did. Cressida posted on instagram, and so did *.
Interesting how detailed her stalking plan was. Somebody put in a lot of time and effort to come up with that plan, and I'm not sure she's sufficiently focused.
Considering that before Harry’s first wife stalked her way into his life, Harry seemed to prefer blondes, so it’s a wonder she didn’t bleach her hair blonde.
Phrases that come to mind are beyond having a narcissistic personality. Bat guano crazy — deeply.
Can you folk explain why so many others are so many intent on punishing us now? After all, America won her independence in 1776, almost 250 years ago.

I would love to know the full story. Based on rumours, she tried to get Windsor Castle and so hyped up why Windsor was so special to her that the Queen scrounged around for something for them on the Windsor Estate and all she had to offer was Frogmore Cottage (5 cottages about to be renovated). Other accounts say she thought they were been given Frogmore House - imagine the shock when the car pulled up at Frogmore Cottages!
@Golden Retriever
Belated, much appreciated
thanks.
Glad you enjoyed it 😜
Sorry, I closed twitter and didn't grab the link.
Charles and his disgusting son were in Istanbul to mark the 100th anniversary of the battle of Gallipoli and * posted in her Tig "48 hours in Istanbul will change your life", plus there were some other indicators that they met up. For example, there was the opening of Soho House in Istanbul at the time, and both were supposedly invited.
The person who posted on twitter also made a comment on Netflix or on Netflix' youtube channel, and the comment was deleted by Netflix.
Right at the start, I wasn't the only one to think * was a plant, if anyone remembers that far back.
I remember. I agreed. It was 'conspiracy theory' territory. Funny how most of those conspiracy theories have been confirmed.
“(I) was so incensed i markled myself!” That is HILARIOUS!
Thank you for the best laugh I’ve had in ever so long; I can’t stop chuckling.
Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukkah, Seasons Greetings, and/or a Festivus miracle for all Nutties.

Maggot a plant? For who though? I thought this notion was eliminated and dismissed due to the fact she was deemed a narcissistic gold digger looking for a British boyfriend, by so many. She espouses Woke nonsense and word salad which has its followers.🫤
Or you meaning a plant for elsewhere? 🥴
Princess Beatrice… the betrayer?
Did Andrew’s eldest daughter know what Meghan and Harry were filming when she let them shoot at the Queen’s private residence?

Their ranks may be dwindling, but Mr. and Mrs. Meghan Markle do have a few key supporters left on the other side of the Pond. What their fabulously rehearsed “fly-on-the-wall” documentary set in stone is who was gone for good: Wills and Kate. The poor Waleses were absolutely slandered. In fact, the only realistic thing about the whole show was the visceral hatred the Sussexes had for the pair. Harry despises his big brother almost as much as Jeremy Clarkson hates Meghan, and would certainly see him strung up in the streets, but of course, you can’t print that in Britain.
Team Windsor may be pretty strong in numbers, but the “we-just-want-to-be-normal-but-don’t-you-dare-forget-the-title” team do have two major players: the Princesses of York. Princess Eugenie, the youngest daughter of Prince Andrew and Sarah Ferguson has always been, unapologetically, team Sussex. Throughout the whole Megxit fallout, Eugenie has been publicly spotted with Meghan and Harry and even made a few cameo appearances in the new Netflix doc. In the first episode, which debuted two weeks ago, the royal is seen partying alongside Meghan and Harry the night before their star-crossed romance was made public.
Her older sister Beatrice is a bit more complex. She keeps to herself, and usually offers the same stance on public relations that her dearest granny did. Keeping schtum. But now, she has become the latest victim of being royally screwed by the disloyal duke and duchess, as it comes to light that it was Princess Beatrice that, intentionally or unintentionally, gave Meghan and Harry the go-ahead to film in the Queen’s private residence. After the monarch said no.
According to one royal source it was Princess Beatrice, Harry’s cousin, that let them take the Netflix film crew into the Queen’s outside Wendy house; what we don’t yet know is whether she was aware of what was being filmed or why. It was there that the duke and duchess laughed and smiled candidly for the Netflix cameras, sipping tea and sitting in child-sized chairs. Such fun! Perfectly sized for the delinquent toddlers.
Y Bwthyn Bach, which means ‘The Little Cottage,’ in Welsh, was given to the Queen, so now falls under the King’s Crown Estate. But in 2010, the late Queen passed custodianship of the house to her Princess Beatrice, who organized a year-long renovation to the house before inviting journalist Andrew Marr inside for his three-part BBC series, The Diamond Queen, in 2012. It was the first time television cameras had been allowed inside the house, which is usually reserved for younger members of the family.
As Beatrice was fiercely protective of her granny, it seems unlikely that she knew what the Sussexes were up to when she granted them access. It is even more unlikely that she knew they’d be smirking over their tea as they counted their cash from the inside scoop of one of the Queen’s most private residences… after the Queen had said no. Maybe Beatrice will now learn from her kind-heartedness. Nothing is ever sacred, especially in Hollywood.

Too bad HRM QEII didn't send the Harkles a Roomba instead of a waffle iron.
/Or maybe she did.
The thing is, a smart anything is/can function as a spy device.

I'd say that since intentionally allowing filming inside the Wendy House would have been contrary to Bea's otherwise hands-off approach to the Harkles and respect for Granny, I'm willing to give her the benefit of the doubt that she was unaware that they'd be taking a film crew. Bea is notoriously private herself and this would not jump to the front of her mind as the reason the Harkles wanted to see the house. Cousin Harry probably lied to her through his wonky teeth and told her that he wanted to show Meghan (Welsh for 'pearl', you know . . !) Granny's Wendy House. Maybe he said they wanted to take a portrait there for a Christmas card . .would that have been permissible? Camilla took a charming photo of herself inside the Wendy House for one of her book clubs. It's the Sussexes so you can be sure permission was granted through plenty of omission or outright fibbing.
It's in the vein of "We did SO ask permission to use the name Lilibet!" As far as I know, Beatrice hasn't had anything to do with Harry or his wife since the wedding apart from this instance so I think she was snowed. Depending on when this happened, she may have still not been aware to be sufficiently on her guard around the slimeballs.
Narkle is systematically destroying every single relationship inside the House of Windsor, not just Harry with his relatives, but she has sowed discord now between the previously very close York sisters and William no longer trusts his York cousins either. And Narkle LOVES it . . all this pain and drama, tears and shouting and acrimony--SHE did this. It's her grand achievement.
Ardern, Steinem, and Thunberg are hardly role models or leaders anyone should follow. So of course the Harkles would glom onto them.
And it does appear that some do have cameras and it can create a privacy problem.

(I hadn't know that existed).
Edward had his father’s blond hair as a child, but as he’s gotten older, he’s the spitting image of The Queen. He looks the most like her of all her children. He’s got her eyes for sure.
I would be very surprised if Beatrice gave them permission to film inside the dollhouse for their mockumentary. Nope, it did not happen.
I also remember that the decision to split the offices and for the duo to move to Windsor was announced during or just after that big tour which she used to show a pregnancy that was not showing. Numerous sources say that William kicked them out (him and Catherine took over that apartment in Kensington Palace). That does not make sense because TBW is not a team player and would want to have her own office, but I have realized that she (and her deluded husband) probably thought that they could take control of the office and have the future Prince and Princess of Wales under her control, because she was so popular and she was going to modernize the monarchy!
Unfortunately, the only people who can tell us the full truth will never do so - the Prince and Princess of Wales. But maybe one day one or more of their staff will be allowed to write a memoir, and they will have receipts in the form of emails and may even be keeping diaries.
King Charles is continuing with his 'modernizing'. The Queen and Princess of Wales take over ceremonial roles as Colonel of the Grenadier Guards and Colonel of the Irish Guards.
The following article is more clear about who is replacing whom:

Well, it's a hypothesis.
I can think of two major nation states and a couple of minor states which would be more than happy to sow unrest and destruction in the UK (one of which already has a long track record of it) but think it wise not to mention their names, also a movement of closely similar ideology, to judge by its symbol.
I don't think * herself is immune from being manipulated. She thinks she's smart but we've seen plenty of evidence to the contrary. She has a low cunning but I can't imagine her declaring `Get thee behind me, Satan', if another party promised her world domination if she took their advice and their thirty pieces of silver.
We've seen plenty of evidence that her narcissism prevent her from reading the true motivation of others - think of how she attributes any response unfavourable to her as the result of jealousy. I think that she could be bought with abundant flattery and lots of cash and never for one moment questions why someone is paying court to her. She knows already - its because she's wonderful and it's her due.
Just a thought.

A great example of how an actress can still work and fit into the royal family. This is what she says about the royal family:
"I cherish my growing closeness to the senior members of the royal family who are so hardworking, uncomplaining and brave in the face of relentless and brutal media attention, criticism, lies, undermining and fictional TV programmes – and always so good to me that I’m honoured to know them."
The grounds at Royal Lodge are huge and there are lots of very big trees. They had a cameraman from Backgrid with them. The 'Doll's House' is shielded from the Royal Lodge by trees. However, the parking area is right by the 'Doll's House' and in clear view of Royal Lodge. To take a professional cameraman with them, without permission, would have been very risky.
One of the Yorks gave them permission to access the 'Doll's House' with a paparazzi photographer, either with the full knowledge that they were going to monetize the images or under the impression that the photograph would be used for some valid reason. (Perhaps an image, with the children, to be used for a Christmas card.)
Unless one of the Yorks talk (I count on Sarah for that), we will never know the true story, but we do know that the the couple in the photograph are dishonest traitorous grifters.
I doubt that the King will say anything nor sanction the Yorks in any way, but the duo from America should never be trusted again.
But timing on that. That's the kind of thing you do with your kids. That's what's off to me. IDK. Maybe before kids, before anyone had an inkling of the looming storm in the distance?
However, DM has the auto-video playing, so one can’t help but see the video when scrolling past. This may be a stretch, but: It makes me wonder if they are trying to reveal something else via the video without directly saying it. Look at her physique. The only comments permitted appear to be sugarbots and benign/generic criticism, not questions about the shape of her tummy. But surely I’m not alone in the wondering?

My opinion
I tried to find the filming dates, but I couldn't. In DM's photo, I noticed that MM has shorter hair. And I thought that H&M might have been allowed into the dollhouse when they were still working members of the RF and not in return for the Queen's Jubilee. What can explain the absence of children......but I could be wrong.
