#King George and Queen Rowena's Image Tour

[simshousewindsor]

Cameron Dorly [SNN]: His Majesty King George I met with Pope Francis XVI during a surprise visit to the Vatisim on Thursday.

Cameron [SNN]: Francis Benedict XVI, the Holy Pope, is Chief Pastor of the worldwide Cathlosim Church and Head of The State of King's City. Pope Francis is a friend and close spiritual advisor to many monarchs like the Sovereign of Windenburg and Oasis Springs, and several Americreek Presidents. 

Cameron [SNN]: “The meeting, also attended by Queen Rowena, focused on the need to promote interfaith dialogue, harmony, and coexistence, as well as safeguarding the Christian presence in the region. Many believe the unannounced visit is an attempt by the palace to repair Queen Rowena’s image.”

Shon Gableton [SNN]: “The College of Cardinals, or more formally the Sacred College of Cardinals, is the body of all cardinals of the Cathlosim Church. As of 29 December 2022, its current membership is 64, of whom 25 are eligible to vote in a conclave to elect a new pope. Cardinals are appointed for life by the Holy Father to serve as his principal assistants and advisers in the central administration of church affairs.”

Shon [SNN]: “The College includes Cardinals Abraham Criste, Walter Tesmond, and Luke Nicholas who were present during the royal visit. Cardinal Tesmond commended Windenburg’s efforts, under His Majesty’s leadership, to safeguard the Christian presence in the region as an integral part of the country’s past, present, and future, and its demographic composition.”

Cameron [SNN]: “King George held a short audience with Pope Francis that also covered the latest international developments and the need for joint action to achieve peace. The ongoing war between North and South Marvania was also discussed.”

Anderson Cooper: It’s been a busy 2 days for the royal family! We have to start with Windenburg’s hottest news! Princess Lara and Anthony Mercier-Jones are Sims Gala official!

Shon Gableton: Yes, Anderson! Not only did the Princess surprise everyone by attending last nights Simsopolitan Gala, her date was Anthony Mercier-Jones, her rumored boyfriend!

Shon: Princess Lara walked the red carpet stunning everyone with Jones, her rumored boyfriend on her arm. The moment ended months of dating speculations. Her Royal Highness wore a unique choice though, the Amelia Coronation Dress by @thedevilliers​, which did fit the theme of Custom Couture Classic wear. The Gala was held at the historic Simspolitan Museum of Art in Greater Easton.

Anderson: The pair walked the red carpet more-like a celebrity couple rather than a Royal couple, breaking royal protocol by giving the paparazzi and screaming fans a kiss! Looks like we have a new hottest couple alert!

Anderson: King George, along with Queen Rowena, was spotted in Buckingsimshire boarding the Royal Train yesterday. Their Majesty’s travelled over 400 miles, to the south Windenburg town of Frankfurt, to attend the funeral of Marvin Bagley III, husband to King George’s first cousin Princess Viola of Hastings.

Anderson: Twins, Vester and Viola, are the only children of the late His Royal Highness Prince Albert, Duke of Hastings. The Duke, King George’s uncle, died before the twins were born.

Shon: Oh yes! Although both were given the title of Prince and Princess, Vester was not bestowed his fathers Dukedom, right?

Anderson: Correct. Which led to many petitioning, then, King Edward II to grant Prince Vester, what many believed, his rightful Dukedom. Many even speculated the Prince would be granted an Earldom through letters patent. It never happened. 

Shon: Princess Viola arrived at the chapel with her daughter, Lily, Prince Vester and his wife, Hattie.

Anderson: His Majesty arrived shortly after and was seen departing just before Princess Viola and family. King George has not been seen with his cousins in several years which has many royal watchers thinking those petitions to his father have finally made it to his desk.

Shon: Forget the politics, let's talk fashion! Queen Rowena looked absolutely chic wearing the grey Barbie Sweater from The Timeless Collection by @sentate​ x @rustys-cc​.

Shon: We also got a first glimpse at The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge who attended last nights 53rd Annual Royal Navy Academy Ball in Brindleton Bay; their first official night of the Commonwealth Tour. The Duchess wore the Camilla Dress by @sentate​ x @rustys-cc​ pairing it with simple jewelry while Prince Rainier stayed in his Navy whites.

Anderson: First day of the Commonwealth Tour was a success. I doubt we will get anymore images from inside last nights super exclusive event but rumors are The Duke and Duchess shined on the dance floor! Their Royal Highnesses had downtime today and will resume their schedule tomorrow with a tour of the Naval Ship Destroyer followed by a Youth Field Day event at Brindleton Bay Stables.

Shon: New Supreme Court Justice, Judge Keisha Bottoms, is scheduled to visit Buckingsim Palace tomorrow to meet The King, before officially joining the Court and becoming Windenburg’s 6th Justice next week. Bottoms will fill the seat left vacant after Justice Grinsley’s death. The Royal Family looks to have a busy week ahead!

THIS CIRCUS

[Buckingsim Palace, Windenburg 5:53 PM WST]

King George: We have a lot to talk about.

Prince Louis: We do indeed. First up, Operation Scorpion... You told me about the deal and the players and the fake deed but you still haven't told me who you owed the money to. What debt are we in?

King George: Going HEAVY first, I see! We are not in any debt.

Prince Louis: Who did you owe money to? You said we would lose everything!

King George: We would have lost everything if the deal fell through or the scandal broke.

Prince Louis: That’s not what you meant. You should’ve seen your face. You were in a panic. It was more than the deal. Something or someone had you spooked. You were afraid. I know you.

King George: Do you know your kids? They are really causing this family, ME particularly, stress! Do you know how many calls and conversations I had with my staff on approvals and requests and increased budgets for a royal wedding I KNOW only your wife wanted to have? The Duchess of Kent doesn't know drama but she knows how to spend my money!

Prince Louis: Margot has nothing to do with this.

King George: You’re right. Your son! And then he elopes!? Do you know he wasted $268,000 simoleons of taxpayer money? We don't want the Commonwealth to start with the “abusing public money” cries. The Crown will need them to perform several royal duties to help recoup that loss. Maybe a small tour will help to repair the damage done to their image.

Prince Louis: Acceptable.

King George: Now, about your daughter...

Prince Louis: Yeah, no-one saw that train coming. I’m sorry! Anna has, firstly, been devastated her marriage ended while also trying to help the children understand what’s happening. With the separation out in the press now, paparazzi have descended upon her in Sulani; so-much-so that she can’t be an effective Ambassador.

King George: So she wants to quit?

Prince Louis: She wants to quit. I don't blame her. I know you didn't have time to speak with her while at Sandringham but she is embarrassed about it all. She feels that she let you down, that she let The Crown down.

King George: She didn't let me down! She has been through a lot. We will do everything to protect her and the children. I will have Lord Samuel submit the paperwork to have her moved back to Windenburg immediately! We will handle the Ambassadorship later. I believe one of the 3 bedroom apartments at Kensington House is available. I will allow her to stay there.

Prince Louis: That would be perfect! Having them at Kensington with us would be lovely. We’re figuring it out, brother. Together! But what we’re not doing is playing chess together because I am whooping your butt!

[Buckingsim Palace, Windenburg 7:20 PM WST]

Queen Rowena: You both realize it’s dark out now. How much longer are you going to play?

Prince Louis: We just finished.

Queen Rowena: Oh! Who won?

Prince Louis: SOMEONE “accidentally” knocked the board over. He... I mean, “someone” was losing.

Queen Rowena: George! You didn’t!

King George: What happens on the board, stays on the board, LOL! Let’s chat in my office, Marty.

Queen Rowena: Good night, Prince Louis.

Prince Louis: Good night, Your Majesty.

King George: Do you want a drink?

Prince Louis: No, but I do want answers. You still haven't told me who you owed the money to. What’s going on?

King George: There is nothing else to talk about with the deal. It’s all handled.

Prince Louis: Are you sure? If this isn't handled and it comes back to bite us, brother...

King George: It won't. I have it under control.

Prince Louis: You have a lot under control these days, George. You need to start giving Kate more. She should be getting as much knowledge from YOU as she can.

King George: I know.

Prince Louis: I don't think you do. She will be the first Queen of Windenburg. I don't plan on you dying anytime soon but she should be helping you more; seeing the Monarchy in full scope.

King George: Well, once the stress of Operation Scorpion dies down I will be much less stressed.

Prince Louis: I should get going. Glad we had time to talk and work through this circus. It was great playing chess with you for a few hours, although you totally cheated!

King George: Hahaha! Hey, those kinds of accusations can get you executed! Good night, Marty. Text me when you get home.

Prince Louis: You may not get it. You know the reception in this big palace is horrible, haha! Good night, brother. I love you. Get some rest. I don't know if it’s stress or you’re just lacking a good night’s sleep but you look very tired!
