What wonderful news! I have to admit this came as quite the surprise to me as I thought they were done, but I’m sure they’re all very excited. Perhaps they’ll have a boy this time!

It will be very interesting to see what happens once Haakon inherits the throne. It does seem as if her parents have indulged and enabled her as she’s gone about her various “business” pursuits and hobbies all while living a rather lavish lifestyle... I’ve known several people whose parents have...

Are they moving back to England?

Does Durek have a lot of money? I know he’s been touted by people like Gwyneth Paltrow but I assumed that he was schmoozing off of ML... seems like it’s the other way around? I get the sense that she is not a particularly stable person right now in many senses of the word, and is very...

I actually think this is pretty great. I’m sure they’ll honor some very worthy people who are doing great things to make the world a better place!

I know I’ve been a tough critic of theirs, but I don’t think that they should remain “unseen.” For me, and I think many others here would agree, they’re private citizens now and are free to make their own income now in whatever legal way they wish... and their chosen way of doing that is to go...

I have a confession: I thought that Janetti’s spoof Instagram series was funny at first in a rather “this is ridiculous” way... but then it started getting really mean (toward Charlotte, toward Camilla, toward Meghan- especially Meghan- toward Kate) and I didn’t like him poking fun at George’s...

I certainly hope that William and Harry’s relationship will heal over time, and time and space will certainly help things, but I have a feeling that as of right now none of the things you say the Sussexes should do to help amend the situation from their end (stop using their titles and playing...

My theory all along has been that this whole thing- leaving the UK for California, separating themselves from the royal family, starting their philanthropic foundation and making their own private income- was driven (at least in part) by Meghan’s unhappiness living in the UK and being a working...

I thought they were using those fancy Sunshine Sachs PR folks? I’m sure their approach to PR is a world away from the PR of someone advising the royal family.

The “raindrop” concept isn’t a new one for the Sussexes. In an interview with Marie Claire about voting, Meghan said, "One of my favorite quotes, and one that my husband and I have referred to often, is from Kate Sheppard, a leader in the suffragist movement in New Zealand, who said, 'Do not...

Obviously human carelessness and greed has resulted in the current climate crisis, which includes things like pandemics. But phrasing it in the way he did (or agreeing with the person who phrased it so poorly) was definitely in poor taste on Harry’s part. It definitely does sound a bit like “you...

I definitely think that you're right about them wanting to build their "compassionate" brand, and building a brand does indeed include a lot of marketing. So that's going to mean that they'll need to be photographed doing charity activities and meeting with others, will need to be seen...

It's all such a strange time in forming the different "bubbles," because I'm sure Camilla's children as well as William and Kate may have others that they are in contact with too (ex: are William, Kate, and the kids meeting with the Middletons or Pippa and her family? Are Camilla's children...

I definitely think this is one of the biggest downsides to them leaving the fold. It was a very sad coincidence that COVID-19 happened right when they were trying to venture out on their own and probably prevented many of the actions that they WOULD have been doing otherwise, but members of the...

The quote that really jumped out at me was, “For me it’s about putting the do’s behind the say’s, and that is something that WaterBear is going to be doing: capitalising on a community of doers. There’s a lot of people that say, but this is about action.” The Sussexes have been “saying” a lot-...

I think that part of that difficulty about the lack of visibility is that they don’t have an official media platform like they did when they were working members of the royal family or like I’m sure they will once Archewell gets up and running. It’s hard to gauge how someone is doing from a few...

I think you really phrased a conflicting feeling I have been having as well. I was very moved by the piece and wholeheartedly believe that it is genuine... but it’s a bit of a “boy who cried wolf” syndrome. So much of what the Sussexes have done has been self-serving or to seek attention and...

The first two and latest two seasons could be two different shows, and not just because of the time jump and change in actors. The first two seasons were still highly fictionalized, but I think overall it was a positive portrayal of the Queen and her transition from a young woman with the weight...

I do find the contrast in public reaction to Meghan’s revealing her miscarriage and other royals or members of the royal family who revealed their miscarriages or losses very telling. I do want to say that the vast majority of reactions that I’ve seen have been sympathetic and supportive, but on...

They want privacy from INTRUSION into their private lives, things like paparazzi shots or having information released without their consent. This is something that Meghan wrote by her own choice and I’m sure she and Harry discussed whether they wanted to share it or not. It would be different if...

The only thing I have to say that may be considered “critical,” and it’s not about the piece itself (I thought it was beautifully written and her pain- and Harry’s- was very apparent): it’s time for them to drop the titles. They aren’t working royals anymore and so as private citizens are free...

While most people here will no I am no fan of H&M, I do have to say that they aren’t opposed to sharing things from their private lives at their own discretion and prompting. For instance, the pictures of Archie at Windsor rather than on the hospital steps. This falls into that category I think...

This was one of my favorite parts about the piece. While the woman of course is the one experiencing the physical pain, no one mentions the emotional pain that both the woman and her partner are feeling. The partner is often forgotten in all of this. I mentioned above that one of my best friends...

Miscarriage is one of the most tragic things a person can experience, and her words were beautifully said and heartbreaking to read. One of my best friends had a miscarriage earlier this year and we grieved for her and her loss together. While I know she’ll get criticized for bringing in the...
