Being a rather old Canadian, I'm a bit of a royalist, but I still think although a meet-and-greet may be tiring, at least someone is at home doing the laundry, cleaning, cooking, checking on the kids and chauffeuring you back and forth.
Imo younger people handle these things better is a myth. Plenty of examples where they do not. In fact, can we be sure that younger people did not cause this mess? Perhaps they were a bit inattentive when they should have been much more alert. Imo. Skill, knowledge and competence matter so much more than age.
Of course, it all is. I cannot imagine the enormous pressure to appear in full makeup with perfect hair, perfect clothes, etc. on a regular day. No path is as easy or as carefree as Disney & Vogue present it. These calls for her to get back to work are absurd imo. Because people have been so demanding and sometimes downright mean, I hope she takes more time off. Let the chatterati chatter. Rise above it, Catherine.
I seem to recall reading in the past that younger staffers had been hired at KP and BP to bring new perspective and knowledge, but sometimes there is no substitute for experience.
I'm pretty sure the "elf ear" is an illusion created by tucking her hair behind her ear, and then some of her hair is falling forward over the ear creating the pointy ear look. We know she does not have pointy ears. And if the facial puffiness was due to meds she may be off them now and lost the puffiness.
Please reread my post. I did not say that younger people handle things better. I said that I thought that new blood would be more into social media and tech better.
Exactly how it happened here, us locals gave William and Catherine the privacy they deserved, lots of people saw them out and about doing normal day to day stuff. It was an open secret as the where they actually lived, we all knew but no one said a word. It was only after they moved that the press printed pictures of the house. We classed them (and still do) as one of our own and we looked out for them.
Exactly, my mum was on certain meds, a few days her face and hands were puffy then for a few days they'd be normal. This happened lots of times over the course of 12 months.
Unfortunately, there have been some fairly egregious acts by the press over the past few decades. The phone hacking scandals, the leaked recording of Charles’ phone conversation with Camilla, Martin Bashir tricking Diana into giving him that infamous interview, to name a few examples. BP isn’t blameless either since they leak when it suits them but then expect the press to put up with half truths or radio silence at other times. The press has lost a lot of credibility over the years as their reporting has become more slipshod and their ability or willingness to fact check their stories continues to erode. I don’t follow the British publications so I’m not sure if any of them were involved in spreading the Rose Hanbury rumors but that’s a case of the press (whether it be foreign or local) just running a very damaging story with no proof and no fact checking. The ability to use social media to shape the narrative has also fundamentally changed the BRF’s relationship with the press. I just see the relationship between the press and the BRF becoming increasingly adversarial as the press struggles to stay relevant as a source of reliable information. It’s pretty sad when Reddit forums post information faster and often more accurately than the traditional press.
Maybe they are bots not people I often wonder but then there are so many crazies now who knows poor people need helpThis is fascinating. People have lost their dang minds. This is obviously fueled by the media to generate clicks and sell newspapers/magazines. Sad.
