Even celebrity cheque's get "lost in the mail", ha ha! :)

Well said Chen Bao Jun! The DNA perspective is certainly very interesting and anything but clear (clear as mud, as we say hereabouts!), but I certainly do envy those children their clearly traced paternal history. I haven't as yet had a DNA test done, instead relying on old fashioned research...

I must disagree with you on this one HenRach! In the business they are in (celebrity), they need to be acutely aware of the optics of a quasi-royal visit to a former British colony. This could all go downhill very quickly if they are seen as having an "all expenses paid" jaunt to a country...

I hope they were able to mark the occasion of their anniversary in a lovely way!

Yes! They also get a lot of clicks, a lot of comments, and a lot of money from their Sussex articles.

A statue has been unveiled of the late Queen Elizabeth II in Rutland. https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-england-leicestershire-68870129 I think its lovely and I particularly like the inclusion of her corgi's, which adds a touch of whimsy to an otherwise formal statue!

To put it plainly, its not what they know but who they are. Its all about the optics! ;)

Well done! I've been known to slip a mag or two over the top of Murdoch mag's too. RF Members united, ha ha!

I think it was important for William and Catherine to have the time to tell their children what it all meant, and to reassure them that she is getting the best of care and will be well. This also gives their children a little bit of emotional armour and the ability to deflect any fears that...

I do hope he will be well enough to visit!

It had to be serious enough to warrant such a long recovery period, and as it turns out, it is. Having been touched by this disease like so many people, I feel much empathy for Princess Catherine. I hope that now she has made a public statement, the media backs off and she and her family are...

I'm baffled at the stupidity of those people. I'm sure they were offered a massive financial incentive by someone, but honestly, how on earth did they think they could get away with it? Ridiculous.

I really love seeing her in blue's and greens!

Such a stunning outfit, I'm so glad she wore it again!

I was commenting specifically on the inclusion of the link to their website that was mentioned above, not the rest of the content, but yes, there is still plenty of information on the royal website! :flowers:

It will be lovely to see her at her first official engagement after Easter, but it is nice to see her looking happy and relaxed in this unofficial footage!

I wouldn't say the Palace are "okay with it" (the Sussex website), rather they are just being pragmatic and saying "go here if you want to read more"!

This would be a smart move, in my opinion, as at the moment it doesn't seem like it is anything more than a landing page. They need to capitalise on their recent media attention (or furore, however you want to look at it!), so for the sake of this business getting off the ground I hope they...

I agree with you, using her maiden name would have been so much smarter, as well as timing her launch so that it didn't clash with an event held in her mother-in-law's name. For a woman who wants to be seen as a strong, independent feminist etc, she hasn't demonstrated any level of standing on...

I thought it was unfortunate timing. Instead of a fresh new focus, it only magnifies the negativity surrounding them. If only they could see that. ETA: Before I get flamed, I think its a great idea for Meghan to try this avenue. I just wish she could leave off the one-upmanship and stand on...

How sad, I have really enjoyed watching her in so many things. What a sad loss.

Facebook, Whatsapp, Youtube, Instagram, WeChat and Tiktok are the top social media platforms where content can be and is monetized. Facebook has 3.05 billion users, Whatsapp & Youtube - 2.7 billion users, Instagram - 2.5 billion users etc. For comparison, Twitter has about 450 million users...

Teenagers (the real experts in photo editing) the world over are rolling their eyes at this kerfuffle! The ones I've spoken to have all said "she made very basic errors but nobody in their right mind cares". Ha ha! :)

In a nutshell, its all about money. That famous line from The Godfather springs to mind, "Its not personal. Its just business." The media and monetized social media can't do their business (make any money) if they don't have daily access to pictures or information about the royals, in this...

^^ Agree, its all just noise. Meanwhile the media and socials are all tallying up their clickbait likes, just like Mr Scrooge counting out his money! I think we can all see who the winners are with this debacle.
