Born just three-and-a-half years after VE Day 1945, HRH Prince Charles Philip Arthur George of Edinburgh was very much a post-war baby. Even his christening, on 15 December 1948, was a reminder of the impact of the war. It could not take place in the Private Chapel at Buckingham Palace, where his mother had been baptised, because it had not yet recovered from wartime bombing. The beautiful…
You had predicted November is gonna be make or break for them, and we are seeing that. With dm’s headlines on jihadi john and 19 other terrorist links to megsy’s first charity endeavour, it is BAD. And now they have been exiled to frogmore cottage (not frogmore house). The pics of that cottage on DM are depressing to say the least! 2/3 (there’s a third part too, sorry)
I don’t know how December will go for harkles, but you have also predicted “happenings” for Jan Feb! I do not believe in annulment theory, especially now with the kid but i cannot be more excited for next year!! Pleaseeee do continue to post some more dates to look forward to. So yes, very well done!!! The fun has finally begin! 3/3
I don’t have a whole lot of time right now, but here’s what I can give you for now.
1. I don’t have anything more to say about the baby. I feel like I’ve pretty much said what I wanted to say here and here.
2. I feel bad for the ladies of the community kitchen; they don’t deserve such associations, but there’s not much that can be done from a public relations perspective at this moment.
3. The last glimmers of love and light in Harry’s mind about this marriage will go away at the beginning of the new year, like January 1st-ish. Like, go away as in extinguished in his mind. No more happiness that was there previously.
4. I’m sure Megs will think things are going better for her than Harry thinks they’re going for him, even if there’s huge amounts of discord. Her ego trip will still be in action until March 2019.
5. Sadly, the possibility of Prince Philip passing away could be happening between February 22 and April 22. Or maybe it’s probably. Haven’t looked that deeply at it, but I know that it’s possible.
6. Spring is going to be a sucky time in the UK next year, including Brexit.
7. (And this is going to be the longest part.) You know, once Harry & Megs announced they were pregnant, I started doubting that an annulment would be a possibility because even if the baby didn’t make it to term, I didn’t think the BRF would try that because it would be a public relations nightmare. Until the last couple of weeks when things started imploding bigger than I expected. And I think you have to take all the upcoming Brexit drama into that. The UK is running a difficult dasha (timing sequence) from January 2018 to the beginning of December 2020, so the mood in the country–economically, politically, socially–probably isn’t going to get drastically better until the end of 2020.
The other parts to consider would be a) Meghan’s tax situation. It’s not about her not filing her taxes or the IRS auditing her. It’s about having the UK’s head of state having one of her family members send financial paperwork–that they desperately try to keep private–to another country. It reveals some of the inner workings of the monarchy to people who aren’t part of that monarchy. When I start googling information about divorce in the UK–aside from the things I’ve already posted–one thing that becomes clear to me is that any divorce between these two idiots (aka Harry and Megs) will not be resolved quickly. It can take up to 12 months for the final decree to be issued. Also, they wouldn’t be able to file for divorce until May 20, 2019, so if the BRF needs to drop a hot potato ASAP, then they’ll have to find another way. And the IRS will consider these two dunderheads married until it has been finalized. So if no final decree has been issued by 31 December 2019 but instead on 02 January 2020, then the BRF will still have to help Meghan with her taxes for the 2019 tax year because they’re still married at the end of the year. And I would bet that they would not want to send another year’s worth of BRF financial information to the IRS.
And b) Harry and Megs being put out to pasture at Frogmore COTTAGE at Windsor. It’s not even a rumor but published on official letterhead. Like, what is so bad right now that they need to forgo any of the–surely–easier and closer options such as St. James Palace or Buckingham Palace? Moving to Windsor instead as “senior royals”?? Like, what is SO BAD that Harry and Megs canNOT stay in London? And that move right there tells you that the BRF is done with them, and that normal things such as all the polite, patty-cake games are over with. They are a political and public relations liability. And it will probably get worse next spring, not better.
8. Still waiting for the current Mercury retrograde period to finish next week. I’m still wondering–after all the articles and things that have already happened–if there is going to be an even bigger finish to it or not.
I’m not sure I believe that they were told to leave early. I think they left early voluntarily. I think Charles would want his younger son there as long as possible.
I suspect Megs would want to leave early because it’s not about her, and she’s not into celebrating other people when she can’t be the star. Harry has to leave because his wife wants to leave.
Barack had always felt a special fondness for Queen Elizabeth, saying that she reminded him of his no-nonsense grandmother, Toot. I personally was awed by her efficiency, a skill clearly forged by necessity over a lifetime in the public eye. One day a few years earlier, Barack and I had stood, hosting a receiving line together with her and Prince Philip. I’d watched, bemused, as the Queen managed to whisk people speedily past with economic, friendly hellos that left no room for follow-up conversation, while Barack projected an amiable looseness, almost inviting chitchat and then ponderously answering people’s questions, thereby messing up the flow of the line. All these years after meeting the guy, I was still trying to get him to hurry up.
One afternoon in April 2016, the two of us took a helicopter from the American ambassador’s residence in London to Windsor Castle in the countryside west of the city. Our advance team instructed us that the Queen and Prince Philip were planning to meet us when we landed and then personally drive us back to the castle for lunch. As was always the case, we were briefed on the protocol ahead of time. We’d greet the royals formally before getting into their vehicle to make the short drive. I’d sit in the front next to ninety-four-year-old Prince Philip, who would drive, and Barack would sit next to the Queen in the backseat.
It would be the first time in more than eight years that the two of us had been driven by anyone other than a Secret Service agent, or ridden in a car together without agents. This seemed to matter to our security teams, the same way the protocol mattered to the advance teams, who fretted endlessly over our movements and interactions, making sure that every last little thing looked right and went smoothly.
After we’d touched down in a field on the palace grounds and said our hellos, however, the Queen abruptly threw a wrench into everything by gesturing for me to join her in the backseat of the Range Rover. I froze, trying to remember if anyone had prepped me for this scenario, whether it was more polite to go along with it or to insist that Barack take his proper seat by her side.
The Queen immediately picked up on my hesitation. And was having none of it.
“Did they give you some rule about this?” she said, dismissing all the fuss with a wave of her hand. “That’s rubbish. Sit wherever you want.”
I’m interested in this but also cynical and think more than likely they’ll have him be overly dramatic, exaggeratedly grumpy, and “whiny.” Because he’s everyone’s favorite royal punching bag.
There’s a lot of good planetary aspects from now until early October, so I don’t think Philip will pass before Eugenie’s wedding. Perhaps after the wedding in late October.
I haven’t exactly taken another look at that again. But if someone else is for sure saying he’s going to pass in October, then I would go for late October, not early October on that.
I have not seen that one yet, but then I haven’t exactly had the time.
I don’t believe Philip will pass before Eugenie’s wedding though. There’s a lot of positive energy happening before her wedding. Perhaps sometime after the wedding though.
