Big Brother Google thought I might enjoy learning about the Grosvenor Family 🤷‍♀️.

So I created a poll for royal watchers. Please answer the questions below:

RICHER THAN ROYALTY

I love Letizia's hatred of hats. She's worn them only a few times - single figures - and I think whenever it's expected she'll wear one she spends the whole time trying to work out the smallest amount of material she can put on her head and still have it be classified as a "hat"

"Today I think of my great-grandmother Crown Princess Margareta. She was born Margaret of Connaught at Bagshot Park in 1882 and married the Swedish King to be, Gustaf Adolf. Even though her life was all too short, she had a great impact on our country with her openness and liberal values."

- Crown Princess Victoria during her visit to the United Kingdom.

When you have the courage to stand up to a bully

she backs down.

I slowed this way down so you can really see the body language here.

I remember reading that Catherine was bullied as a young girl at her school, Downe House. Meghan isn't the first mean girl she's faced.

Body language says it all. Guilt, fear and the realization that she will face consequences for all the hateful things she's done and said are flashing across Meghan's face.

Karma is only a bitch if you're one, too.

Favorite Looks Worn by the Duchess of Cambridge on Overseas Visits/Tours (9/?)

I adore everything about this look, except the hair. I would’ve preferred it be in a pony tail with the high collar.

Harry needs to be publicly flogged

Will that be enough for people? It has been noted here on social media for years that the best way to deal with a narcissist is to ignore (grey rock) them. It has been posted over and over again that it is the tack to take.

Yet the social media doyennes want more. They want him paraded around the social media sphere to be flogged, then tarred and feathered, then paraded around to inflict as much shame as possible upon him.

Alas, the man has no shame. The response to Spare has sealed Harry and Meghan's fate. Meghan began to seal her fate with the Deal or No Deal podcast and The Cut interview. Bloggers like myself can point out how done they are, yet the social media doyennes WANT MORE.

Harry and Meghan are well to the right of the decline stage in this chart. Child actors quit Hollywood. Products get discontinued.

King Charles has already indicated that Harry and Meghan's life is overseas. He does not have to do anything further. Harry and Meghan are irrelevant. They are grasping to the last vestiges of popularity. It only remains for Fleet Street and the US gossip rags to begin to ignore them. We'll probably have to wait until after the divorce for that to happen.

Here We Are Again, And The Trouble With Royal Mail

Last July, I wrote about reshoring your business. There are lots of good reasons for this, and if you sell internationally you may find that the last month will have reminded you that this might still be a good idea. This time last month (11th January) the Royal Mail suffered a cyberattack and the processing of outgoing overseas mail ceased. It’s now just over a month later, and STILL the system…

Kinsey Schofield: Meghan is absent from celebrity charity events because she & Harry overshadow the cause. LA Restaurants regularly turn down Harry & Meghan due to security demands.

This is actually a good conversation because Paula allowed Kinsey to speak.

Kinsey believes Jill Smoller could be the godmother.

Diana's brother won't allow Meghan to visit Princess Diana's gravesite.

Kinsey is in touch with Trevor's friend who knows Meghan and labeled her "thirsty"

Allegedly it was a York sister who overheard Meghan tell Harry that Diana told her (during yoga) she's proud of them for attending the Jubilee.

"Peace and freedom are not laws of nature, given once and for all. They are assets, more fragile than we think, that require something from each of us, big and small." - Crown Princess Victoria at the Bundestag for Germany's National Day of Mourning, 13th November 2023
