    The Duchess of Cambridge's Daytime Fashion Part 30: July 2021 - March 2022

    Perhaps they had a private farewell engagement with representatives of their hosts.

    Duke and Duchess of Cambridge: Platinum Jubilee Tour of The Caribbean 19-26 Mar 2022

    Good question. A Washington Post editorial was highly critical of the tour, if not openly disdainful.

    This. Jamaica and the Bahamas are very different countries.

    The Duchess of Cambridge's Eveningwear Part 11: November 2021 - September 2022

    The wardrobe is all worked out ahead of time, with the dress code agreed upon by the hosts and visitors. If Catherine showed up in a ball gown and everyone else was wearing day dresses, I would say that would be a big mistake, but that hasn't happened here. Catherine's dresses have matched the...

    I don't know if Samantha has a case or not. What I do know, however, is that people are neither all good nor all bad, and most of the time each person on either side of a conflict owns some aspect of the truth. She seems to be someone who has struggled with many aspects of her health, and that...

    General News for Queen Elizabeth II: April 2021 - September 2022

    It sounds like your grandmother has a strong constitution!. In Ontario, the vast majority of deaths from COVID-19 since the start of the pandemic have been in people 80 years and over. The next highest group is age 60-69. COVID does not treat the aged well. Just today we had three new outbreaks...

    The Prince Andrew and Jeffrey Epstein Controversy 1: 2010-2022

    The vast majority of these cases are settled out of court. Andrew could have done all the things, some of the things, or none of the things of which he is accused. Unless the settlement includes an admission of guilt, it is wrong to assume that a settlement is an admission of guilt. It is...

    General News for The Prince of Wales and The Duchess of Cornwall 1: Feb 2015-Sep 2022

    The COVID-19 virus mutates when it runs unchecked in populations. Some mutations will be cause more severe illness, and some will cause less severe illness. It probably cannot be eradicated, but serious disease and unchecked mutation can be controlled by vaccination. If we engage in magical...

    MMM...I can't see a blouse. Only a sweater. Which I like.

    The Duchess of Cambridge Picture Thread: All Years

    In my view the photos are an attempt to situate the DoC in the context of the BRF and William's eventual succession. I don't mind the style, but my first thought was that they were heavily edited ("airbrushed") and/or overlit. The images seem rather flat to me, I think that is the reason. It...

    The Royal Foundation of the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge 1: Ending Sep 2022

    Of course it was pre-recorded. That was obvious by the setting. Given that the Duchess is not a highly trained pianist, it was the wise thing to do. Still laudable.

    General News for the Cambridge Family Part 3: March 2017-September 2022

    "The question about the Cambridge's work ethic - especially Catherine - related to her number of engagements this year. I have her on 117 so far while she did 130 last year and 130 for 2019 so she hasn't actually 'stepped up' this year but done less than she did last year which saw the country...

    Names and godparents for Beatrice and Edo's first child

    The original christening gown is no longer worn. One or more replicas has been made and worn by later royal babies.

    The Duchess of Sussex's Daytime Fashion Part 5: November 2019 - April 2022

    With most of her outfits, Meghan has a huge problem with tailoring and fit. She is beautiful, but she is very short-waisted and so she needs to make an extra effort to have properly tailored outfits.

    Sunshine Sachs has organized a great deal for Harry and Meghan.

    General News for the Cambridge Family Part 3: March 2017-September 2022

    It isn't about being "near a covid case" it's about being a "close contact." Our public health unit (small city in Canada) defines close contact as "interacting with someone who has been identified as a + COVID-19 case either 48 hours before the person began having symptoms or 48 hours before...

    Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis, General News 4: Apr 2018-Sep 2022

    I totally agree. They wouldn't do this unless it was really necessary. Disciplining the child in public may embarrass or demean the child and would be captured by photographers for all eternity.

    Birth of Lilibet “Lili” Diana Mountbatten-Windsor: June 4, 2021

    I wish the Sussexes health and happiness. I also cringed when I heard the name "Lilibet." We can never know what the Queen thinks of this, and she loves her grandson and his family. The name, however, clearly emphasizes their link to the monarchy. I can hear them now, however: "We wanted to...

    The Duke & Duchess of Sussex and Family, News and Events 4: April-June 2021

    It's pretty hard to ignore if you have Apple TV+, as the program is headlined on the landing page, with a picture featuring Harry and Oprah. Make no mistake, Harry is the draw here. I am not watching. As I have said before, Harry has the right to share his feelings, but he does not have the...

    The Duke & Duchess of Sussex and Family, News and Events 4: April-June 2021

    It is possible that he wanted a separate office staff because he and Meghan weren't getting along with the people they were working with. Perhaps they wanted total control. It is also possible that Meghan was offended by someone on staff and she thought that the only workable solution was to be...

    Maybe Archie likes waffles and such a gift would allow Archie to have waffles for breakfast, although it would be an odd request.

    The Panorama Interview: November 20, 1995

    I do not believe that William said or thinks this either. What he said was very clear. The interview was exploitation at its worst, and the fallout was great.

    The Duke & Duchess of Sussex and Family, News and Events 4: April-June 2021

    Most people do not object to Harry's leaving royal work. Of course he could have done these things as a member of the BRF and of course he can do these things outside of the BRF. Of course he loves his wife. He is free to talk about himself and his wife and whatever angst they are feeling. He is...
