The DM's Excerpts - Charles III: New King, New Court

Robert Hardman (who also wrote Queen of Our Times, published 2022) has written a new book about the British Royal Family. The Daily Mail is serializing parts of the book over four days, from 12 - 15 January 2024. Here are the links. If anyone has any others, feel free to share them in the comments.

If you don't want to give the DM clicks, I've included highlights below. (My browser doesn't recognize archive.vn or archive.ph as a valid domain so I can't create or access those links.)

TL;DR--

The day the Queen died, 12 Jan 2024

Secret summits over making Charles regent in Queen's last years, 13 Jan 2024

How the royals have dealt with a torrent of allegations from Harry and Meghan, 14 Jan 2024

Harmdan's intimate portrait of a woman who dances at Abba concerts, jabs the King with her handbag and 'knows when to wink at a bishop,' 15 Jan 2024

Excerpt #1, 12 Jan 2024

Highlights:

The last time most of her staff saw The Queen was at the pre-dinner cocktails the evening of September 6th. She was happy, chatty, and in a good mood. (September 6th was the Boris Johnson-Liz Truss transition.)

It was sheer luck that Anne and Peter were at Balmoral during this time. Anne was passing through for work, Peter was preparing for a shooting party he was going to host over the weekend (which ended up cancelled). Also Sarah Chatto was nearby.

On September 7th, The Queen planned to attend the Privy Council meeting as it involved new Cabinet officials being installed. She eventually cancelled on medical advice. This was the first signal to many that she wasn't doing well.

Charles and Camilla were on the western side of Scotland for a series of engagements September 7 - September 8. The morning of September 8, Anne called Charles to come to Balmoral at once. On the helicopter to Balmoral, everyone was reviewing the Operation London Bridge papers. They arrived at Birkhall around 10:30am and traveled to Balmoral in a borrowed car.

William was called around breakfast time and informed of the situation, including that was on his way to Balmoral. Charles himself called William (and Andrew, Edward, and Harry) that they should also come. After Charles's calls, Kensington Palace began coordinating with Royal Lodge (Andrew's office*) and Bagshot Park (Edward's office*) on travel to Scotland. William and KP did not reach out to the Sussexes because betrayal, and they felt the responsibility should have been on the Sussexes to make contact. (*Not really their offices, but it's the easiest way to keep them separate so you know who I'm talking about.)

Everyone was disturbed by Harry's inclusion of these events, especially the "Meghan's not coming/she's my wife/Kate's not coming either/that's all you had to say" bit, in his memoir. Harry's recollection of how he was notified of The Queen's death isn't true - he claims no one was talking to him but actually Charles and the palace had been trying to reach him repeatedly. The calls weren't going through because he was in the air. (Interesting that he'd check the BBC first as opposed to calling back after seeing a dozen of missed calls...or not springing for the wifi package...)

Liz Truss, the new PM, was in a G7 conference call on September 8th when she was notified of the situation in Scotland. She bowed out of the call early and quickly. The G7 leaders knew what was happening.

Charles was rather close to Balmoral when he received the call that The Queen had passed. William, Andrew, Edward, and Sophie were on the way to Balmoral from the Aberdeen airport. Charles called them himself to let them know.

The Archbishop of Canterbury was in France on a personal holiday. He and his wife began preparing to return home after seeing the palace's first statement about The Queen's health. They drove home overnight so Welby could make an address in the morning.

Excerpt #2, 13 Jan 2024

Highlights:

The Queen had been quite ill in her final year. She knew and was aware her time was ending that summer.

A regency would have been created had she lived as long as The Queen Mother because everyone was fearful of a health condition flaring up in public.

Planning for Charles's accession and coronation began in 2015. Sir Alderton, his private secretary, created a "training video" of the accession/transition then that Charles, Camilla, and William watched in the evening of September 8th during their private dinner at Birkhall, while Princess Anne hosted the rest of the family at Balmoral. If Harry wasn't such a dick (my word, not Hardman's), he'd have been part of the Birkhall dinner but he wasn't and there were very serious concerns he would write about it in Spare.

The announcement of The Queen's death was delayed because family members hadn't been informed yet. (I think it was Harry they were waiting on, per the events in the first article.)

The royals were very touched by the outpouring of public affection for The Queen, themselves, and their family. Camilla was struck by how supportive the crowd was of her. Anne was touched by the tractors, horses, and the crowds that lined the roads in Scotland. It was a six hour drive, and she and Tim had had snacks in their car but they both felt it would have been rude to everyone that came to see the procession and pay their respects to be seen eating.

Camilla sobbed through Charles's first speech.

The Privy Council were concerned that the political upheaval in the government would cause problems for the accession, transition, and royal mourning.

It was William's idea for him, Kate, and the Sussexes to do the Windsor walkabout together. He organized it in two hours. No one found it easy or enjoyable.

Excerpt #3, 14 Jan 2024

Highlights:

The Queen felt she had to say 'yes' when Harry contacted her about naming his daughter Lilibet and she was very angry with him for it. (Reading between the lines, it sounds like the decision was presented by the Sussexes as "fait accompli" and The Queen took offense.)

The Sussexes tried to force the palace to go along with their version (that they had asked The Queen for permission) but the palace refused to play. They also tried to intimidate the press with legal action if anyone didn't report "their" version of events, even going so far as threatening the BBC with a lawsuit.

Everyone at the palace rolled their eyes about the Sussexes getting the RFK "Ripple of Hope Award." They felt that the "legacy" the Sussexes were being rewarded for was laughable, especially when compared to Charles's work.

The Caribbean gets its news through the US media. (I believe this confirms the theory that Sussex PR influenced the Caribbean's coverage of the Royal Family)

William saw Harry's comments in the Netflix documentary that they're expected to marry someone who fits the mold as an attack on Kate and he's been furious since. He feels betrayed by Harry having discussed their relationship so freely, thinks it's an intrusion of privacy.

Neither William nor Kate have read Spare but they are aware of what's being said and their staffs have briefed them.

Harry's version of events when The Queen Mother died is totally made up. (In Spare, Harry says he was alone, it was springtime just before Easter, and he took the call himself, but actually he was in Switzerland skiing with Charles and William and all three were told together by an aide.)

It's very suspicious that Spare largely skips May 2018 - March 2020. The palace thinks it'll be covered in the second version or Meghan's memoir.

The door is open for Harry and Meghan to return but they'll have to make the first steps since Charles has given up.

Anne's seat the coronation in front of Harry was a last-minute change so she could leave more quickly after the service in the procssion. She was concerned about keeping her hat on since it was "decent-sized" but she was told to keep it on.

Excerpt #4, 15 Jan 2024 - TBD

Highlights

It's been a difficult transition to Queen for Camilla, but everyone believes she handled it well. Her family finds it surreal.

Camilla doesn't mind being second fiddle to Charles.

She still has her Wiltshire home, Ray Mill, which she bought after divorcing Andrew PB. She still visits and stays there to this day.

Everyone walks a bit on eggshells around Charles because he's a bit temperamental, but Camilla steadies him.

Camilla likes her rooms hot. Charles like his rooms cold and windows open.

Charles skips lunch. Camilla does not.

Camilla keeps Charles running on time when he gets chatty.

Camilla is hands-on with her charities and patronage.

I find her sister is overstaying her welcome. After her starring role in the coronation documentary and now her interviews with Hardman for the book, it's too much and feels like she's trying too hard.

Other stories by Hardman from his book:

Foreign Office officials 'ditched buses for dignitaries' at coronation after backlash at the Queen's funeral, 13 Jan 2024

Brigadier who helped carry Queen's coffin was at a wedding in Corfu, 13 Jan 2024

Queen's funeral rehearsal was a comedy of errors as even the band went AWOL, 13 Jan 2024

Prince Andrew could be 'far more damaging outside the loop,' 14 Jan 2024

The DM's other royal reporters - Martin Robinson, Rebecca English, Natasha Livingstone - are publishing "recaps" of Hardman's excerpts. Some of Rebecca English's stories are augmented by her own sources. Here are a few:

Insiders revewal how the Queen was so upset by Harry and Meghan's Lilibet decision that she told aides 'the only thing I own is my name. And now they've taken that': The royal row taht troubled Her Majesty in twilight of her reign, 15 Jan 2024

'For William, this was the lwoest of the low,' 15 Jan 2024

Camilla was given the affection nickname 'Lorraine' before seh became Queen, 14 Jan 2024

Harry and Meghan likely caused Queen 'distress' in her final years over naming of baby Lilibet, 15 Jan 2024

The Queen's final years were overshadowed by Harry and Meghan's hunger for publicity, 15 Jan 2024

Also, these are reminding me of some things Harry and Meghan (Harry mostly) have claimed and Hardman's articles are debunking them. I need to do a bit of research to check if the dates on what I'm remembering line up with the timeline Hardman is presenting. I'll do a separate post on that since this is already quite long.

Chrysallis (WIP Title)

As mentioned in my blog description, I am working on a book like that of Keeping You a Secret by Julie Anne Peters or If I Was Your Girl by Meredith Russo.

It chronicles the journey of a trans girl in her final year of high school. She hasn't realized she's trans yet. But the more she talks to Skylar, a transfemme person in the same grade who has recently started medical and social transition, she starts to realize that she may not be so happy in her body after all.

i have my "classic albums" playlist on which is only albums i consider no or very few skips and cohesive albums i enjoy listening to in whole, a lot of nostalgic stuff from when i was a teen but new ones too, and i totally forgot about the dawnseeker by sleepthief and that is an album that completely transports me back to middle school, specifically reading keeping you a secret by julie anne peters bc i would read that book listen to this album and then lay around being emo bc my first girlfriend burned me that CD so i would listen to it while thinking about the Emotional Turmoil of our tween non relationship lol.

so i can't hear that album without thinking of it as Very Very Gay despite knowing nothing about the artist or all the different vocalists on each track. highly recommend if you're into like new age (whatever that means)/electronic vibey music w great difft women vocalists

#megamazing #some music can make me nostalgic sometimes but i listen to often enougu that i don't associate so strongly w one time #but i really listened to this for a few months then rarely ever again regularly #so adding it to a playlist is like WHOA hello there memories #Spotify

I recently got back into reading after not reading much this year. My poor Goodreads challenge is at the lowest its every been. This year I just haven't been in a huge reading mood. Normally I read a little bit throughout the year and make a big dent in my reading challenge even if I don't complete it. Though typically I aim to read about 100-110 books and normally end up reading about 60-70 depending on how I'm feeling during the year.

Now that its the end of the year my reading mood suddenly kicked in full drive. I've been able to finish several books already this month. One of which was sitting on what I like to call my pile of shame for several years. I've also recently bought a lot of books to add to the pile of shame, lol. Whoops.... XD Any who today I organized one of my main bookshelves. It was due for a dusting, plus I've been meaning to go through and see if there were any books that I'm not going to re-read. I ended up with a small stack of books that will be finding a new home at my local library. A few months back I purged a whole tote full of books from years of collecting. I rarely get rid of my books but normally when I do I have a huge stack to donate.

Unhauling:

Fallen, Torment, Passion by Lauren Kate (I've had these for years and I don't see myself continuing the series.)

Vicious by V.E. Schwab (I liked it well enough but I don't see myself reading the next book any time soon. Honestly Eli was insufferable and I don't know if I want to read his pov.)

American Gods by Neil Gaiman (I intend to read this but my copy is a really old paperback. I'd rather read it in hardback or ebook form.)

Unspoken, Untold by Sarah Rees Brennan (I adore this author but this series just wasn't for me. I have the last book and I intend to finish it but after I'll be unhauling it as well.)

All Of Us Villians by Amanda Foody (This was a DNF for me sad to say. It had a strong premise and I heard there was LGBT rep so that's another big plus for me. But I only got one chapter in and I just couldn't.)

A Darker Shade Of Magic V.E.Schwab (Another DNF for me. I tried reading this and just felt myself bored. Which is a shame cause I love this author and the covers to this series were so bomb.)

Keeping You A Secret by Julie Anne Peters (One of the first LGBT books I've ever read. To be honest there is better rep out nowadays and I don't feel the need to hold onto this anymore. It was good for a read but I don't see myself reading it again.)

The Wrong Girl by R.L. Stine (Fear Street was my jam in my teen years and I still enjoy a lot of the older titles. But this particular one is a part of a newer series and I just didn't care for it too much. So its gotta go.)

So This Is Ever After by F.T.Lukens

(I am so sad that I didn't like this book! The premise sounded fun and the cover is a work of freaking art! I'll probably have to make a post about what I didn't like about it. But the short version is I was very annoyed for a good chunk of the book.)

there are very few wlw book rec lists on this site so i’m making one myself goddammit

anyway here are some wlw books i enjoy that you should read bc i’m wlw and i told you to. i tried to make it as concise as possible. each title has a link that leads to a site where you can buy the book online + look at the cover.

we are okay by nina lacour genre: realistic fiction, coming of age summary: marin's the only one left on her college campus during winter break, because marin's the only one who feels she has no home to go back to. between whatever happened with her grandfather and whatever happened between her and her... friend (is that what hannah is to her, anymore?) she'd rather just wait out the snowstorms on her own. but then hannah comes to visit her, and she's forced to figure things out for herself. why you should read it: wlw character whose story arc doesn’t revolve around being wlw but rather growing up and dealing with the death of a family member which is honestly really refreshing, some nice early college vibes i really like, generally just a nice fresh story. writing style is *chef’s kiss* content warnings: none.

the miseducation of cameron post by emily m. danforth genre: realistic fiction, coming of age summary: a book about the life of cameron post, starting with the first time she kisses a girl and following her through the premature death of her parents, summer swim meets, learning about what it means to be lesbian, getting outed and shipped off to conversion camp, and eventually straight up running away. why you should read it: written in a way that makes it easy to read, character voice is clear and fun, cameron is just incredibly relatable and i love her so much oh my god. the ending is so good its all so good i am literally begging you to read this book. content warnings: homophobia, internalized homophobia, parents who aren’t accepting, somewhat in-depth descriptions of conversion camp and mild conversion therapy, referenced recreational drug use, self harm and suicide of minor minor character but still potentially triggering.

the pros of cons by alison cherry, lindsay ribar, and michelle schusterman genre: realistic fiction, humor summary: three girls enter three conventions going on in the same convention center; vanessa's there for the fandom con. pheobe's a percussionist on a school field trip to a band competition. callie's tagging along to her dad's taxedermy convention. naturally, the three meet, and shenanigans ensue. why you should read it: teenage lesbian character who is openly and comfortably lesbian and its a part of her identity and she’s chill with it?? yes!!! she has a crush on a nonbinary character??? double yes!!!! also generally a very funny book, and all the protagonists are wonderful. warnings: none.

laura dean keeps breaking up with me by mariko tamaki genre: realistic fiction summary: freddy can't figure out what's up with her... friend? girlfriend? laura dean. too focused on her own problems, she starts to distance herself from her friends and more important parts of her life. a beautifully drawn (this one's a graphic novel!) coming of age story. why you should read it: graphic novel so its a quick read, the art is stunning, the secondary characters are complex and have their own arcs and are a wonderful supporting cast, also we have yet another teen lesbian character who is comfortable with her identity and i love to see it. warnings: teen pregnancy mention and underage sex mention (between an adult and an older teenager)

wilder girls by rory power genre: horror summary: when the horrible virus called the tox first started infecting the girls at raxter boarding school, the government swore to help them. it’s been over a year now, and no cure has arrived. as more and more girls pass away with each passing day, hetty and her friends, reese and byatt, are determined to make it out alive. why you should read it: holy shit okay in general this is just so well written and compelling and the characters are strong and we got casually queer characters and yeah it’s great. don’t read if you want a happy ending, though. warnings: mild body horror and mild gore

keeping you a secret by julie anne peters genre: realistic fiction, romance summary: early 2000s lesbians baby!!! plus annoying stepsiblings who actually end up being pretty cool, dumping your douchebag boyfriend, and that spicy side dish of questioning your sexuality because the new girl at school? hot as fuck. why you should read it: if you want to read abt a protagonist having Feelings abt a girl for the first time and combating internalized homophobia, this is your book. if you don’t want bittersweet endings that aren’t exactly what you’d call ‘feel good’ i’d recommend you move on. an easy read (i tore through it in a day). warnings: homophobia, internalized homophobia, parents who aren’t accepting.

on a sunbeam by tillie walden genre: science fiction, adventure, romance summary: a ship floating through space, its crew’s job to restore old buildings among the stars. two girls at a boarding school, falling in love amidst the trials of academic life. slowly the two plotlines intertwine, intersect, become one. why you should read it: graphic novel and the art is so fucking stunning i can stare at it for hours, there are literally no men in the whole book just women and nonbinary characters and its never explained they just don’t exist in this world, science fiction but its written like fantasy, this whole book is just so fucking cool oh my god, also its free online bc it was originally a webcomic so uh you can read it here if you’re broke like me. warnings: none.

the difference between you and me by madeleine george genre: romance, realistic fiction summary: jesse is the founding (and only) member of the national organization to liberate all weirdos. emily’s the vice president of the student council... and she has a boyfriend. what happens as the two accidentally fall into an affair? why you should read it: it’s a quick read that keeps you on the edge of your seat a surprising amount for a realistic fiction teen romance type book, there is pining and it’s great, in general fun if you like the whole star crossed lovers type thing. plus we got some wlw’s being friends with each other which is refreshing! no forced romance between wlw characters. warnings: internalized homophobia star-crossed by barbara dee genre: realistic fiction summary: when twelve-year-old mattie signs up for the school production of romeo and juliet, she expects to have some fun with her friends and learn a bit about acting. what she doesn’t prepare for is falling for gemma, the funny, smart, and beautiful girl the director’s cast as juliet. mattie’s never had feelings for a girl before; between balancing her theatre and her new crush, she’s in for quite the school year. why you should read it: written at the middle grade reading level so it’s easy to get through. also no internalized homophobia from wlw protagonist which is wonderful! there tends to be a lot of that in these types of books but in this one it’s more of a quick thought of “huh i’ve never had a crush on a girl before” and then “is this normal?” and then “bah i don’t care she’s fucking pretty” and honestly? same. warnings: none. princess princess ever after by katie o’neill genre: fantasy summary: they’re two princesses and they’re in love and it’s a short graphic novel what more do you need. why you should read it: they’re two princesses and they’re in love and it’s a short graphic novel what more do you need. warnings: none.

disclaimer: this list is obviously limited as it is contained to only books that i’ve read and that i was thinking abt at the time i made this post. fellow wlw’s please feel free to add on, but if you do i’d love it if you could add a short summary and any content warnings that might apply (as opposed to just saying a title and the rep in it).
