I thought they were late taking off because her sister was delayed at work.
I think whining about an amazing opportunity like going to Gordonstoun is emblematic of how deeply entitled He is and was. I’m sure he was as much a prisoner there as H was really on the front line. The teachers would’ve been tiptoeing around him from day 1.
A lot of people, especially in high profile marriages, seem to operate on this idea that casual sex is ok provided it doesn’t threaten their position as the spouse & I think she was following that.
Andrew’s ego and manipulative behaviour seem perfectly welcome though as was the fasc uncle Windsor but it is definitely different rules if you are in the bloodline vs married in.
I will say their marketing that convinces people that this is some gourmet trendy stuff is amazing. Same is true of five guys. At British five guys it’s at least £15 for burger and chips in a plastic diner - I mean you could get a decent meal in a nice restaurant for that!
I’d say a big factor is C&D’s relationship existed in the heyday of the paparazzi and the tabloid press and as we have mentioned one is clearly more photogenic than the other.
On a related note, I love Grey Gardens and I can see why Jackie wanted to get outta there.
Very insightful point. If you are too vapid to be a celeb UN ambassador then….I don't think she would have cared about filling seats at the UN had there not been pictures of the auditorium. I sometimes work at or go to these types of events, and very often all that is videoed and pictured is the speaker and the presentation.
I can't remember if H had a presentation along with his speech, if he didn't, it's not the UN's fault, because the Sussexes gave very little visual for edited-down highlights (I say highlights advisedly) or follow-up for publicity/posterity. Their laziness is demonstrated one again.
Plus, really bad move from M!
The UN is possibly one organisation she could (have) continued work (or 'work' in her case) - now they will be recoiling from the couple too.
Anybody still thinks M is a good hustler?
I suppose one would also go through the various indignities of being a courtesan in the hopes of never having to hand out your CV again at the very least too.Paid 'ladies' don't talk. That's partly why they get paid.
Plus, silence is mutually beneficial
Hence why no-one has 'yacht girl' on their CV
How ironic in a few decades he’d have some awful American guests all of his ownQE visited him as did Prince Charles.
Edward suffered from throat cancer in the years leading up to his death, so when Queen Elizabeth II, her husband Prince Philip, and their son Prince Charles paid a visit to the Duke and Duchess of Windsor during a state visit to France in May 1972, he wasn't well enough to properly receive them. Still, the Queen reportedly spent a few private minutes with him that day — and, as is seen in season 3 of The Crown on Netflix, the Duke reportedly rose from his bed to bow to her.
Accounts of this meeting with the Duke and Duchess of Windsor vary, but according to many, it was a somewhat awkward one. The Queen was reportedly not a fan of Wallis, and she grew "annoyed" with her at times. Still, she allegedly greatly appreciated that her uncle put so much effort into paying her the "final courtesy" of bowing.
The Queen Visited the Duke of Windsor Days Before He Died
Queen Elizabeth II visited her estranged uncle Edward VIII, a.k.a. the Duke of Windsor, in France before he died. Here's what really happened that day.sg.news.yahoo.com
Prince Charles’s account:
Wilson refers to prince's diary entry, in which Charles describes arriving at the duke's Parisian residence to find a party full of the "most dreadful American guests I have ever seen." Charles added, "The whole thing seemed so tragic—the existence, the people and the atmosphere—that I was relieved to escape it after 45 minutes."
The historian believes that Charles likely wrote this with an audience in mind, and would have downplayed any positive experience he might have had. Still, Wilson says, "Never meet you heroes, they say, and how right they are to say it." He adds, "I think he was unsettled by the grand style in which the Windsors lived, maybe he thought they were living in some ordinary town-house in an anonymous Parisian street. I think he was also miffed that there was a party going on when he arrived, whereas he viewed such an historic meeting as something which should stand alone, not dovetailed in with the Windsors' hectic social commitments."

It was written and edited for publication and circulated by his press department I’m sure.
I suppose we can all just be happy we were spared a bronzer stained spaghetti strap at least
From what I can see CBK’s appeal seems to be based on simple clothes, minimal make up and striking natural long hair.Imo M is not even a cheap copy of CBK. Good grief, enough with this so-called ‘channeling’. TBower needs to rewrite that chapter. Sheesh.
How Meghan has been channelling Carolyn Bessette-Kennedy's wardrobe
Meghan, 36, chose a camel skirt and black polo top for her first official engagement with Prince Harry in Nottingham. The ensemble is strikingly similar to one worn by Carolyn Bessette.www.dailymail.co.uk
Am I the only one who is on Al-Fayed’s team? He was understandably devastated by losing his son and prior to that Him being rejected for citizenship was total BS - hate preachers and terrorists have citizenship but not the guy running a London institution- makes no sense.
This is the one I’d say it was the obvious rip off of and it makes sense. Of course she’d never acknowledge it as though she’s not adverse to borrowing a WOC’s looks when it suits her all the women she vocally pays homage to are the likes of Ivanka and Angelina…..Lady C was very upset about the Bower insinuation that Methane was inspired by CBK’s wedding dress. The two dresses are nothing alike. Lady C went to FIT after all. She correctly pointed out Methane’s dress is a bad cover version of Princess Angela of Lichtenstein’s dress, which she designed herself.

Did Meghan Markle’s Wedding Dress Nod to Princess Angela of Liechtenstein?
The gowns are so similar.
I can only stand to read a few pages at a time, and only when I have nothing better to do. Harry really does not come off well in the book. So bitter, dumb, rude, and entitled. What really shocked me was bower’s portrayal of him as being so desperate not to lose meghan. Like she is some great prize! It’s amazing how she sold him the idea that she is the second diana. He is so stupid and yet so arrogant at the same time. He totally deserves the hell that his life must be with her.Came across another ridiculous Bower mistake in chapter 36. When discussing ZZZ’s support of BLM, Bower states Abraham Lincoln owned slaves. NO HE DID NOT. Geez!!
Trying to power through the last of the book tonight. While it affirmed my feelings for ZZZ, it really opened my eyes to what an entitled nitwit Handbag is.

That makes two of us!
If we're talking about fashion inspo... That one time she tried to cosplay Michelle O and failed miserably
