Like I said. That visit to oprah and the last minute invite to the wedding wasn’t for nothing. Oh no but they still innocent, and her interview is a bigger paycheck now that the wedding has happened.
Thanks for sending this in! I can just imagine the Royal staff scrambling to find stands and vessels that would make this crap cake look like something decent.
I’m still having a hard time wrapping my head around the idea that this is supposed to be a royal wedding cake. Oh, well, I guess it fits them to a “t.”
Obviously there will be no traditional wedding cake at any of their christenings.
What this wedding shows is that the royal family is open for business, but not in a great way. It’s widely known that it’s difficult to get access to the BRF, whether you’re a British designer or a celeb hoping to mix with them at an event. I use to work in the celeb branding/events industry in London and there’s no way any kind of money would’ve got you into W & K’s wedding.
Large charity donations by a mega celeb + repositioning M & H’s brand as international, well connected humanitarians = win win for both parties. I love a good wedding, but this wedding reeks of tack and vulgarity. I thought that the fake floral arch was actually quite beautiful but couldn’t help thinking that it was there as a ‘step and repeat’ backdrop for celeb arrivals!
This is not modernising the monarchy. Mark my words, there’ll be plenty of pay-to-play scandals to come.
THIS.
A lot of people suspected that money could buy you access, but it had to be A LOT OF MONEY and it provided very little access and you had to be super discreet about it.
Now they are merching cupcakes and private clubs and cars and middle-market Canadian jewelry and it’s A LOT more obvious. They did a freaking Jaguar ad!!!! Plus the guest list and seating placement, of course.
And, yes, it was deliciously vulgar. The whole point of the BRF is that they are supposed to be above tacky product placements and celebrity back-scratching. Harry and Meghan, however, are definitely not above any of that crap.
If you have to speculate if someone loves you and wants to be with you, chances are they don’t. It’s not that complicated. Love, in most cases, betrays the one feeling it. Don’t waste moments waiting and wondering. Don’t throw away your time dreaming of someone that doesn’t want you. No one is that amazing, certainly not the one who would pass you up.
Yep, that’s what we’ve seen since the engagement announcement. The hot messes dig themselves into a hole and then the BRF swoops in and gives her a royal event to fix it. I think that’s going to be the way of things for a while.
Actually, I don’t think her relationship & living together with Cory meets the standard for common-law marriage in Ontario. Canada leaves it up to provincial jurisdiction.
Like I said before, I need to check the British law. Don’t forget Cory, she was in a civil union according to the canadian law. 😘😘
In Ontario, the Ontario Family Law Act specifically recognizes common-law spouses in section 29, dealing with spousal support issues; the requirements are living together continuously for no less than three years[13] or having a child in common and having “cohabited in a relationship of some permanence”. The three years must be continuous, although a breakup of a few days during the period will not affect a person’s status as common law.
I don’t disagree with you that a figure like that might come up in a google search. However, those celebrity net worth figures tend to be highly speculative and generally based on gross – instead of net – income. Honestly, I’d be surprised if she were worth more than $1M on paper before marrying Harry. She always lived in a modest rented home in Toronto, which, to me, is evidence against her having a seven-figure net worth.
Wakanda will no longer watch from the shadows. We can not. We must not. We will work to be an example of how we, as brothers and sisters on this earth, should treat each other. Now, more than ever, the illusions of division threaten our very existence. We all know the truth: more connects us than separates us. But in times of crisis the wise build bridges, while the foolish build barriers. We must find a way to look after one another, as if we were one single tribe.
wanted to put a picture but did not work. At w and k wedding, family and Friends got thé best Seats. How do you justify putting Oprah and clooneys etc before your mother’s brother and sister. Especially when you have no qualms using said mother for your pr. Diana would be mortified at thé end of thé day she was still an aristo what they did IS so rude.
Thanks for sending this in!
The Cambridge wedding was notable precisely because you had commoners sitting somewhat as equals with the royal family. That’s why it got so much praise as a family wedding.
The Sussex wedding is notable because the friends and family were all superseded by celeb guests. It was very Hollywood. That’s Meg’s environment. She ditched her normal family and friends for the C-list celeb circle of Suits in 2011 and now she’s ditching her C-list celeb circle for an A-list celeb circle.
Part 2/2 …Did you notice how QUIET it has been around her Coat of Arms? Haha, Daddy’s little escapade robbed her of that little treasure. Bet she held her breath until she turned blue… er.. ish, and Harry gifted her that aquamarine ring instead. Bottom line though: Meghan Markle’s Coat of Arms got cancelled. Boom. I’m baffled why nobody picked up on the radio silence on the coat of arms thing, it would have been plastered all over. Glad to have you back btw! 🙂
– One of the biggest fears writers face is burnout, or “writer’s block”. However, there’s always a way to look at the positives in a situation. Please take the following to heart: Not actively creating is okay, as long as you continue to your goals in another way.
Do not ever beat yourself up over not having the momentum to keep creating actively, 24/7. You need days where you relax and research and find inspiration. It’s not laziness. It’s an important part of the creative process. There’s a fabulous visual by emcheeseman on Twitter that was made for artists and explains this really well.
The Three Stages Of The Creativity Cycle
There are three stages to the creativity cycle; Action, The Middle, and Recovery.
The Middle Ground
If you’re coming down from the action stage, you’re not quite burnt out, but you’re also not as full of creative energy as you might have been last week. Your creations aren’t popping out as quickly and you’re finding that you take more breaks, do less in one sitting, and would rather take it slow and figure out some world building for upcoming scenes or write some experimental blurbs, rather than keep writing at full speed.
Or, if you’re coming out of the recovery stage, you’re not at 100% yet, but you have the motivation to do something, such as the activities I used as examples above.
During The Action Stage
You’re actively creating. You’re, how one would say, on a roll. Your visions and ideas are coming to life and you’re using all of your energy to create, rather than research or recharge. You should be using the momentum you’ve built up in the middle ground to write, and write a lot.
The Recovery Stage
You have had enough of writing for hours and hours at a time and you need some rest. Your brain is tired and you’re finding it more difficult to get excited about your project. It’s time to let yourself breathe. Give yourself time to do absolutely nothing, distance yourself from your project, and take in some material to help you get inspired again.
You need to input content into your head. Read, watch tv shows, watch movies, go out in the world, try new things, have new experiences, visit new places, etc. This is super important to this stage. If you don’t consume other work or things that will help you generate ideas once you have the energy again, you will not bounce back to the high energy production phase you hope to be on again.
So What?
Just remember that creativity, no matter what art form you practice, is a cycle that you can’t stop in one place. Nobody can always be in a place where they can happily create every single day without faltering. You’re human, you’re an artist, and you need to accept that there are multiple ways you can work toward your goal, even when you’re “burnt out”. It’s all part of the process.
Happy writing!

Meghan is stupid. Her wedding dress will ultimately go down as boxy and potentially ill-fitting. The exquisite tailoring on Kate’s McQueen dress is more evident in comparison.
Moreover, choosing a French label instead of a British or Commonwealth one? Absolute PR fail. They keep trying to push the designer’s name Clare Waight Keller), but it’s who Waight Keller works for and who made it that is official. No one says Kate’s dress was a Sarah Burton dress!
The guest list was very much Meghan and Harry’s choice- same with william and kate when it came to family and friends- although I would put this one solely at Harry’s feet as it’s not her responsibility to invite his family. I honestly have no idea why they weren’t invited. They seem as surprised as anyone else. I’d be really hurt if I was the Gloucesters or Kents, had given my entire life to serve the monarchy, and my children who grew up with the boys weren’t invited but people they’ve met twice were. I get that they should be allowed a lot of control over their wedding guest list but he is a prince and it was partly taxpayer funded- costing more than any wedding in a long time- so I think that not recognising the families of lifelong public servants and instead inviting almost strangers is kind of cold of Harry.
Fewer GPs are choosing to work in poorer areas but more are joining surgeries that look after wealthier populations, new official figures reveal.
The exodus, uncovered by Labour MP Frank Field, is exacerbating the existing “under-doctoring” of deprived populations – the lack of family doctors in places where poorer people live.
Experts said the widening divide between rich and poor areas in GP numbers – which is one of England’s starkest health inequalities – would force the least well-off to wait longer for an appointment, even though they are generally sicker and die earlier than the rest of the population.
“A decade ago the country was beginning to make some serious inroads into the under-doctoring of the poorest areas. What these grim figures show is that in recent years that progress has not only stalled, but actually gone into reverse,” Field told the Observer.
“The most worrying trend here is the number of GPs ceasing to serve people towards the bottom of the pile, while at the same time people in the wealthiest areas have benefited from an even better service. Vulnerable people are having to suffer in silence without being able to see a GP.
“Here’s another example of everything going in the wrong direction if our goal is to equalise health opportunities and outcomes. It is a new appalling face of inequality in modern Britain.”
There were 8,207 GPs working in areas containing the most deprived quintile of the population in England in 2008. But by last year that number had fallen to 7,696 – a drop of 511 – according to the response to a written parliamentary question Field asked recently.
But over the same decade the number of family doctors working in the most prosperous fifth of the population increased from 4,058 to 4,192 – a rise of 134, public health minister Steve Brine told Field.
Fuck keeping affluent people alive, help us instead
I just wanna point out that there were a few spots at the wedding. Some of them were oprah, the bishop, her mom, some people from Harry’s charity, and serena. Besides that all of the black people that had anything to do with the wedding were WORKERS, including the one who was opening their car doors at the church.
I feel sorry for Doria since Megs wouldn’t even invite any of Doria’s siblings. Doria’s family was literally shunned so Clooney and other celebrities could sit on Meghan’s side of the aisle.
Around $40 million (american dollars), that’s what is said everywhere, although, it is estimated ‘for real’ in $30 million. (Dollar lost a little value to pound. For you to buy £1,00 with dollars, you need $1,3470).
Exactly, but he was too “chillexed”, but he is more into it than she is.
If you love a flower, don’t pick it up. Because if you pick it up it dies and it ceases to be what you love. So if you love a flower, let it be.Love is not about possession. Love is about appreciation.
GOOD QUESTION! I felt sorry for her, she was there by herself, without one single familiar face (👈🏻 read again). And a comment that I will write on here: some people are complaining about Charles being a gentleman and walking and chatting with her. Just one question: What did you expect? Them to leave her walking by herself, in the middle of a total complete environment from hers, talking to her buttons. Really?!
