“Can Meghan keep her hands off Harry for just 5 minutes? I get they are in love and happy, and that’s great. But stop trying to distract people by acting all cute and instead focus on what’s really important: the charities you’re visiting and the people you’re meeting.“ – Submitted by Anonymous
We are the last generation who can hear from these survivors directly. Do not take that lightly. Do not waste that opportunity. Do not forget your freedom isn’t infinitely guarenteed. And do not, do not, let it happen again.
Really truly, watch the video, reblog it. Teaching about the holocaust is so necessary for our generation before it slips under the rug and people forget about it.
No one loves the spotlight the way these two love the spotlight. They are true Kardashians who want to live their lives in full view of the public. I laugh whenever I remember that people were so worried about whether Meghan could endure “life in the fishbowl.” She loves the fishbowl! This has been her dream!!
I wonder if that’s why he’s so nervous. He has never been independent and now he’s splitting from his family and putting his entire life in the hands of someone he barely knows.
I promise never to say anything bad about you to anyone, ever, although I can’t promise not to roll my eyes, make finger-down-my-throat motions, or mime choking myself to death.
I agree never to reveal anything about your finances, except for all the money you owe me for movie tickets I purchased online for both of us, which you somehow forgot all about reimbursing me for, or brushed off by insisting, ‘I’ll get them next time.’
I will refuse to add devil horns, a disfiguring mustache, or a crudely drawn facial penis to any photo of you, unless I’m really bored at the office or whatever.
When a prospective employer of yours contacts me as a reference, I will never make a spit-take sound, inquire about mandatory drug testing, or congratulate said employer on ‘not believing the Internet.’
There’s certainly a double standard because no one would talk about it if it were a woman, and I would say… Why? Because are women expected to do it and men aren’t? And why aren’t men expected to do it, and why haven’t men done it before? Does it show vulnerability? Does it exhibit this vestigial, kind of puritanical shame over the human body and human intimacy? Yet violence and self-flagellation, self-hurt, hurting one another, we can do, because that’s what we’ve been taught culturally is okay? I don’t know, but it certainly seems to be an odd thing.
I agree that although Charles (and HM) are notoriously thrifty, there is no price too great to ultimately protect the monarchy itself. Charles knows that the moment the RF are seen as “just celebrities,” their whole reason for existence (and taxpayer funding) goes out the window. So it may cost him upfront, but it will be worth every penny in the long run to save the crown.
I also suspect that he knows that by paying more for the separation now, he could be saving a lot in the long run. The fame and money is her oxygen and as you’ve mentioned before, she won’t stay around long if she doesn’t have top billing and unlimited funds. She didn’t sign up to do lunches with the garden club in a 8 year old dress.
W&K will get the best staff, the more high profile events and goodies (as they should.) The kids will continue to slowly get more exposure. It’s amazing when I look back how much of this was already beginning to happen. We were all noticing and commenting on it but just not sure if it was part of a larger plan. I think now we can say for sure it was. The more serious, heavy events for Will; the regal (yet sturdy) wardrobe and accessories for Kate (including the RFO, and Queen Alexandra’s necklace); holding the Cambridge kids back at H&M’s wedding, the photo of H&M virtually shunned outside of E’s wedding…
It’s incredible to me how much this could possibly mirror Edward’s “separation.“ “Go ahead, go live your fabulous celebrity life, but you have to do it away from us." They may have allowed Harry to marry Meghan and given her the goodies to a point because they had no other choice (Harry played that R card very early with the statement) but they WILL not allow these two to sink the whole ship. This is the crown slowly lowering these two in a lifeboat, and eventually they will cut that rope.
Thanks for sending this in!
“She didn’t sign up to do lunches with the garden club in an 8 year old dress” is absolutely right. She actually tried to fit in right after the wedding, with the fug pink Givenchy and salad bowl hats and all that crap. It did not work for her and she knows it.
Harry and Meghan want to be Brangelina and the brf has been through this before and they know how it ends. They’ll let Harry and Meghan do it, but they’ll make sure the main branch is protected.
I’m totally for this. William has been very clear that he did not want to be a celebrity, but Jason’s tabloid-friendly media strategy flirted with that status heavily (which is how they ended up with Meghan). I’m glad they are now backing away.
I think we’ll see even less “official” duties for Harry and Meghan after this tour. They will end up going full celeb.
I am not sure why you think this makes Harry and Meghan look good. Yes, each anecdote starts with a statement as to how fantastic Meghan is and how everyone loves her, but the substance is rather bitchy toward the Harkles.
They sucked up to Charles because he was paying for the wedding and were mean and snipy thoughout the event.
Then they backed out of appearing in PC’s documentary, even though Chuck basically saved her wedding.
And she showed up without a hat at Chester. I’m amused about the “did not realize” phrasing as Meghan was working with Sam Cohen at the time. Of course she realized.
“I used to really dislike Camilla, mainly because I loved Diana and the public disliked Camilla. As I got older and learned more about both women (I was a child when Diana passed), I really feel for Camilla. I looked more into her and her charities and they’re the same sorts I would champion. I’ve warmed greatly to her in the past few years and she and Charles are adorable. (Charles though I still have issues with.)“ – Submitted by Anonymous
“The bravery and courage Mette-Marit showed us, made a strong impression. We never considered denying Haakon the love we ourselves fought for for nearly nine years. And now Marius came into our lives. I went to the attic and found old toys.”

There’s a book coming out about PC, and there’s an article on the dailymail. Apparently, PH had a meltdown before his wedding. Can you do a reading on the meltdown. Thanks! I know you’re busy…
Just pulled the cards for this and this is what I got.
I think this stemmed from or was more so an argument (Letter/House).
Someone lied to the other (House/Clouds/Letter) and lots of misunderstandings in the convo.
I think Charles (Bear) was trying to help Harry out with something regarding the wedding and public perception (Cross/Bouquet) and Charles was confused on how to respond to him (Clouds/Bouquet). I feel like this is a conversation they’ve sort of had before (Bouquet) but was ignited because of the wedding.
Harry wasn’t taking responsibility for something (Clouds/Cross) and wanted his family to come to the rescue and save him (House/Cross). I think regarding the Thomas Markle and all the scandal leading up to the wedding (Lily/Garden/Cross/Bouquet).
Harry was acting like a spoilt child (Mountain/Child/Clover). He was upset he wasn’t getting his way. Harry stopped accepting his help at one point (Child/Clover) but was acting very needy (Moon/Man) for his father and family’s public help and acceptance. He wanted them to fight for him and Meghan more in the public and not leave her basically to hang and figure it out on her own like they did lol(Man/Clover/Garden/Mountain).
Charles wanted to help him a little bit (Heart/Bear) but Harry closed him out emotionally (Heart/Tower/Key) and was like “whatever”. I think Harry wanted more access to something and Charles said no (Tower/Key) which irritated Harry. Sort of like closing the door in his face type of deal (Key/Scythe).
I feel like this convo took place at night time or during a meeting or retreat somewhere before the wedding (Moon).
