The scene at the Commonwealth Day service last year where Kate is totally ignoring the witch becomes more understandable the more I read about the way 'Haz/Eeyore' and Megain were behaving. I have no doubt that Kate would have loved to have turned around and knocked some of her enamelled teeth out, to wipe the perpetual smug little smirk off her public actress face. It would have made brilliant TV but of course we can't have that sort of behaviour in public! The Palace has successfully goaded them into lashing out and making themselves look even nastier, if that were possible. :-bd :))

Probably signed his autograph book.

For the curious and innocent may I point you towards:

If you have yet to sip your morning coffee or are looking forward to a light luncheon, look away now.

I think that The Times has it in one here:
The newspaper had claimed several sources said Meghan had craved rejection and that she wanted to be a victim so her “unbearable experience” would convince Harry that they had to leave the UK.

An alternative view?
The Duchess of Sussex is a woman who fell in love with a man. That’s it. Unfortunately for her, this man happened to be a British prince
I am informed that it was not so much love at first sight but last man standing.

Just to match the evening news, channel hopping and there on 3 channels. At least the truth is out, she didn't like being told what to do.

Dry your eyes princess. Many of us spend a large part of our lives following rules. The further up the tree the more restrictive they are.

Would today's creme de la creme accept having a dress code every evening? A bar bill capped each month. Not permitted to have a female in your room, or visit hers?

Being required to stand for hours on a parade. Having ones leave stopped for a VIP visitor. Having to clean and polish everything even after professional cleaners were supposed to have done the work.

To do a fod Plod after an airshow we didn't want to do in the first place?

Why did we put up with it? Well a chance to play with Auntie Betty's play set visiting exotic places in the world and being paid to do it. And occasionally getting killed in the process.

Grow up princess. You are not in a grotty quarter either.

Only just looked at this. I thought that it was a spoof. Seems to be real. Glory be.

Odd that the alternative view is written by a NR.

Ex-A, apparently its a Hollywood thing, you get given designer clothes, then you get to keep/sell them. Royalty get clothes and one pays for them.

I understand that as a goodwill gesture, the FO is setting up a visit to Paris next month. Adverts placed by HMG in Exchange & Mart for a White Fiat.

They say 46% of people understand a joke and 54% of the others laugh.

I think I am somewhere in between 😏
