    The Duke and Duchess of Sussex and Family, News and Events 9: August 2023 - July 2024

    Didn't in one of his hacking lawsuits (I'm too lazy to check which one), Harry claimed that there's a "secret agreement" between "the Palace" and the press so he could only filed it after he left as his reason for passing the statute of limitation? And now in this interview he said he talked a...

    Royals at UEFA Euro 2024 in Germany: June 14 – July 14, 2024

    Congrats to the semifinalists. Three monarchies in the semifinal means royal appearances are guaranted for the rest of the tournaments. Whatever the outcome in the final, whether it's Spain vs England, France vs England, or Spain vs Netherlands, we'll have 17th century warfare. My prediction is...

    The Future of the British Monarchy 2: Sep 2022 -

    I don't think you can compare it to JIF. The last abdication was "only" 2 centuries ago and prior to that abdication was practically a tradition and the one who didn't mostly died young (the one i can think that lived past 60 is Emperor Showa). We couldn't say the same about past British...

    The Duke and Duchess of Sussex and Family, News and Events 9: August 2023 - July 2024

    Harry is not the only celebrity mentioned in the court paper. Names like Mariah Carey and Jay-Z are also mentioned there. And his name is only mentioned once (page 63): The events covered in this lawsuit are ones that happened between September 2022 to November 2023 in which Harry has already...

    Princess of Wales Undergoing Cancer Treatment

    Did they? Yet, this story even reached Japan: Fake King Charles death story spread in Russia, Ukraine So despite the various PR moves BP did, still speculations existed to the point that UK Embassy needs to issue official statement. Yes, it didn't make any wave in social media (not even in...

    The Duke and Duchess of Sussex and Family, News and Events 9: August 2023 - July 2024

    Speaking of the Guardian, they have this article: Labour backs away from press reforms after Prince Harry’s phone-hacking court victory I doubt this decision has anything to do with Harry, but I don't think this is the result he had in mind when made that "slaying the dragons" statement.

    The Duke and Duchess of Sussex and Family, News and Events 9: August 2023 - July 2024

    I hope this will bring some sort of closure so he can move on. Because even though he said this lawsuit is not about money, this is a civil lawsuit so that's all he will get (plus a half apology). No one will be sent to jail (it's been reported that no subsequent investigation by the Met...

    The Duke and Duchess of Sussex and Family, News and Events 9: August 2023 - July 2024

    After his holier-than-thou statement about William's settlement on his phone hacking lawsuit, wouldn't it be rather hypocritical of him if he settles? Then again, double standard seems to be one of his notable traits, so who know? I'm sure if he settles, he (and his supporters) will be more than...

    :previous: Off course, because it's always everyone else's fault. Although I don't think wasting his money to pay lawyers for unnecessary lawsuits as "smart". But that's just me, since maybe if those lawsuits can stroke his ego then it wouldn't be "unnecessary" for him. And another plot twist...

    The Royal Family Order (RFO) and other Royal Orders and Decorations 2: Sep 2022-

    Or maybe it has something to do with cost? Medals are basically just ribbon and metal disk, while even if (I suspect) RFO will no longer made from ivory and substitute with glass surely it will still be adorned by diamonds. Yes, the late Queen got her grandpa's RFO when she's 9, but it was a...

    "End Game" by Omid Scobie - 2023

    CMIIW, but the 2019 monarch photo is the 3rd time it's taken, right? The 1st one Harry was even there, the 2nd one Royal Post used it for stamps. And suddenly, the 3rd time it happened Harry took it as a slight (and thrown tantrum over it)? Can someone please make it make sense? It's not like...

    "End Game" by Omid Scobie - 2023

    Well, Harry said with his own mouth in front of camera that it's an "unconscious bias", not racism. Or somehow Scobie knows better than Harry? I've also seen part that Scobie said that he has been excluded from royal engagement by KP after Finding Freedom. So since this book mostly cover what...

    Succession and Membership Issues

    I'm not saying Hisahito will be forced to marry a chosen girl tomorrow. It's illegal anyway (the legal marriage age in Japan is 18 with parents' approval, 20 without parents' approval) And what is "love match"? Here's a story: When he was 16, Michi-no-miya was presented with several selected...

    General News about Frederik, Mary and Family Part 19: September 2023 -

    I appreciate your need to defend Frederick, but in Frederick's case, there are photographic evidences of him walking with a woman then entering and leaving a building which is said to be the woman's house where she's at that time living alone. While for William's alleged "affair", it was a...

    Which Country Could Become A Monarchy?

    Nepal riot police rout protesters seeking restoration of monarchy Is there really any possibility of Nepal becoming monarchy again? Is it genuine or just some kind of anti-government protest? IIRC, there was pro-monarchy rally some months ago.

    Succession and Membership Issues

    Just random thought, Fumihito married at 24 then had his first child not long after. So I wouldn't be surprised if Hisahito follows the same pattern of marrying young and having kid straight away but in his case, his first born would be a son (public don't need to know how it happens). I really...

    But few days ago she said he didn't stay the night at her home (even though there are pictures indicate the contrary). If Fred does the above, then it will turn into a case of "who's lying? Why lied, do they have something to hide?"

    General News about Frederik, Mary and Family Part 19: September 2023 -

    Well, considering there's also time when royals can just throw people to the dungeon as they please, would today's people be okay if they do it now? For a younger brother to kill his older brother to seize the throne? If today's royals are suppose to treat their staff with respect, human to...

    General News about Frederik, Mary and Family Part 19: September 2023 -

    How sad it is when people start to view fidelity in marriage as an exception while affairs being accepted as a norm (what's the point of marriage then?) Putting royals in common folks' standard feels like an oxymoron. They are what they are, in their position, because their lineage makes them...

    General News about Frederik, Mary and Family Part 19: September 2023 -

    I want to believe that Frederick doesn't commit infidelity. But some comments here make me wonder, what constitutes as affair/cheating? Because I get the impression from some comments that it's only counted if there's feeling involved, so it's like if he stayed the night and something did happen...
