I’m happy to see Doria there but can’t help but think all the fawning people are a little hypocritical for loving that she accompanied Meghan to an event but if Carole picks up George from school she’s labelled a schemer who just wants to get in the paper.

Oh there are a ton of hypocrisies in the situation that I won’t list because people already know them but the thing that’s most troublesome is that she arrived in their taxpayer funded means of travel despite having no right to. She is not our representative. I love Doria but transparency about the spending of our unelected officials and trust between the public and the royals is a bigger thing than one individual and given that this is the third time in their relationship Harry and Meghan have misused taxpayer funds, I am sighing right now. I hate to be that person that drags everyone back down to earth but royals don’t exist to be cute and adorable. They have a job and as part of that job they have set terms that they have to stick by- letting your relatives who aren’t representatives of the country use taxpayer funded means of travel is not sanctioned and totally inappropriate. It was inappropriate when Chris O’Neill did it in Sweden and I called him out then, so I’m doing it here too.
