If you're a Beatles fan, you'll know that in the fifty years since the group went its separate ways, almost everyone involved with them has sold his or her story. Only one major figure has not: Jane Asher , who was Paul McCartney's girlfriend for five years during the heyday of the group, and accompanied him on the famous trip to India in 1968. An actress, Jane went on to become a TV personality and famous cake-baker. She has never spoken about her time with McCartney and dislikes being asked. Until recently, the Sussex saga had included a similar figure: Trevor Engelson, Meghan Markle's ex-husband. Trevor has never spoken about Meg. But he has done well for himself: he married a wealthy woman , continues to work as a producer , and seems to have a loyal (and multi-racial!) circle of friends , unlike some people we know. He appeared to have excused himself from the whole soggy mess. Until yesterday, when he was papped. Driving his black Porsch...

Do you think he bought Picasso`s or did Fergie replace the paintings furnished with the two homes by fakes and sold the originals?

In April 2019, the Times had a bombshell story about what was happening behind the scenes at Kensington Palace and Buckingham Palace as courtiers tried to figure out what to do about Prince William and Kate on one side, and the Duke and Duchess of Sussex on the other side. There were multiple quotes and revelations in this piece which proved to be accurate. Not only accurate, but prescient about the real fear (within the palace) that they were simply going to lose Harry and Meghan’s star power if they didn’t properly manage them. Palace officials were talking openly about sending Harry and Meghan away, outside of the UK, but in an official capacity with some kind of title and job, like governor-general of Canada or Australia, or UK trade ambassadors. In Spare, Harry confirmed that those discussions took place as well. Within all of the “how do we harness the Sussexes’ rock-star power” discussions, there was Prince William, like a bump on a log, his insecurities front and center. A source told the Times: “People are telling William, ‘Don’t worry. Your influence will grow and Harry’s will fade.’ This is peak Harry.”
Within this same Times piece, sources confirmed that William had been “reaching out to senior figures in the media as he prepares for kingship and by the apparent decision of those same newspapers to side with the palace over Meghan and Harry by peddling the most negative coverage of the duchess’s relationship with her father, Thomas Markle.” One source said, “The danger to them is that Meghan is going to be bigger than Diana.” And that’s why William was 100% behind the effort to simply get Harry and Meghan out of the country: “In some ways it would suit William to get his brother out of the country for a few years and Meghan as far away as possible.” Well, obviously, Russell Myers’ new book, William & Catherine, has completely reimagined this royal history.
Eh, similar has come out of the Sussex camp before (think Scobie book which she did/didn't assist in) and other media pieces - how the people in the palace were quaking in their shoes about how powerful the Duo were and similar fear of them by members of the royal family. Really. Can you picture William or Catherine (or even Camilla) hiding behind a sofa crying because they are afraid of one or both? that somehow one or both now has more power? Contrast that with the image of Catherine in the golden dress? Not so scared.
Do I think that the palace tried to come up with ideas, things to do, places to stay for them? yes. I think they tried long and hard to come up with something to help them. So that would be "true". When you mix some truth with "this" is how I view things which does not match the reality of the others , it can sound very believable because you know this or that part is true ... so you might conclude that perhaps the rest "ought" to be equally true.
As for this making * sail even higher in the public than Diana - as above but note it is focused on her and not him. Besides how? how does negative about her father translate to sustained (read life long or close to life long) major historical legacy for the next multiple generations? (and who might want that? him? nah, but she might as it could strengthen a victim legacy .
Do I think William wanted they out of the country? well sorta as in hopes they might find something else to do, focus on far away and less meddling in his future life as he tries to keep all the plates spinning in a post King Charles world. I think he saw the potential for the future problems, maybe not in detail which we have seen so far. Decisive.
