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

    Ouch, forgotten about the jetset princesses. In my defence, they’re not working as representatives of the royal family, bar a visit to Germany many years ago. HLM giving into her prefered son again.

    He is “just” a HRH prince being the second son of a son of the King. His older brother got the title (duke of Kent), there wasn’t any title for Michael. And she, Marie Christine, takes his name, she’s not a princess in her own right. Right now I think there are only three princesses in their own...

    "End Game" by Omid Scobie - 2023

    'I'm as frustrated as everyone else. The book I wrote, the book I edited, the book I signed off on, did not have names in it'. Nuances.

    "End Game" by Omid Scobie - 2023

    So, aparently, there was a draft with the names and there was a final version without the names. This fact makes Scobie a liar. Again. https://www.thetimes.co.uk/article/omid-scobies-agent-sent-draft-of-endgame-naming-royals-in-race-row-jjtvfxvr6 And the archived link: https://archive.is/9zp8v

    That would make life unlivable. They were family. If they were to supervise the excitement for a future baby what’s left from the life’s joys?

    "End Game" by Omid Scobie - 2023

    After all the brouhaha, this book doesn’t bring anything new. I don’t care about naming the people they accuse of being racist because I didn’t care about their accusation since it was first made. Anyone with an ounce of spirit of observation would have known before that interview that the BRF...

    So the latest version is that Scobie got the scoop about the content of the letter from some servant from Clarence House? And “the Princess of Wales” was Camilla?

    Nope. “Our staff sensed the friction, read the press, and thus there was frequent bickering around the office. Sides were taken. Team Cambridge versus Team Sussex. Rivalry, jealousy, competing agendas—it all poisoned the atmosphere. It didn’t help that everyone was working around the clock...

    There’s not enough money in three solar systems to pay me to badmouth my family. My father, my brother, my siater in law.

    You had me laughing at “strategic thinker”! Thank you! (I mean, if her plan was to waste the biggest chance one can have, of course)

    That’s how I see it also. Just a lucrative opportunity.

    Because no other member of the family had the nerve to write books/give interviews/make netflix series about the family.

    "End Game" by Omid Scobie - 2023

    I shared earlier the beginning of the chapter on the Queen’s death. The paragraph immediatly after is below. There was at least a second phone call with Charles. At least that’s what Harry says: “Then came another call from Pa. He said I was welcome at Balmoral, but he didn’t want…her. He...

    THAT is the thing. William did not, ever, publicly said anything untoward about Harry. It is Harry who washed his dirty clothes in interviews, series and his book. Also, for what is worth. I work in the air traffic navigation services. A flight like that does not need a slot. It is either...

    Yes and no. “ “. But that day—September 8, 2022—a call came in around lunchtime. Unknown number. Hello? It was Pa. Granny’s health had taken a turn. She was up at Balmoral, of course. Those beautiful, melancholy late-summer days. He hung up—he had many other calls to make—and I...

    Yeah, but the only ones complaining about others’ leaks (and the ones who inflicted so much pain and hurt) are the Sussexes. It’s not about big deal or not, it’s about doing it.

    And what if, big if, the private jets and everything else was paid by Invictus? That’s the innuendo I feel in that inquiry. (No need for the King to pay, they have a very public government funding for Invictus.)

    Oy! It can be nothing, it can have legs into something bigger. “Their spokesman was also asked if Harry and Meghan cover their own travel, accommodation and security costs during Invictus, the last one being held in Dusseldorf, Germany, in September.”...

    The activities of the RF are known in advance from various sources, the court circular being probably the last on the list. What someone sees as “decent” someone else may see in a different perspective. That’s one of the things the army of staff the RF has have to consider: how does it look from...

    Harry himself talks about this in Spare. How people do get better housing, different attention and so on after getting married. He insists on this - that they have to get married to get a different status and perks. And that it doesn’t happen in a hurry. He knew, we don’t know how much she...

    Of course not, and she had one by the time they left, it’s Harry before marriage who didn’t have one. But it layed the narrative.

    It’s always like that with a new married in, the higher on the LoS position the worse the storm in the press. Had they taken their time, it would have allowed her to be prepared.

    It’s another assumption. Not having a relation doesn’t mean not knowing him. It was said in the article that the professional relation was between his partner and Wootton. At the end of the day, there’s no proof of leaks, or at least not yet. The article sounds like an extract fom Spare. And...
