She was short-changed by Betty, she should have been 'Princess Nutmeg'.

Princess Nutmeg paying tribute to the victims of the latest US massacre in complete solitude, except for
Vogue and other media photographers and her Netflix crew who somehow found out she was going to be there.

If Henry the Eighth didn't say it,he should have " an arse to build a Kingdom on". But I ask again why do we still keep going round and round this sonobuoy? They are a pair of nonentities, why are you guys still paying any heed.

Because it's fun to mock the afflicted and always has been. And far from being nonentities they are Important People, why, they say so themselves! who have set themselves on a high pedestal ready for us to throw coconuts at. Their true function in life, which it's wrong to deny them.

I zoomed at that from the answer of our esteemed member OFSO. It was a good response when I read it.

Daily Mail:
Royal fans today bemoaned the absence of Archie and Lilibet* from the Queen's Platinum Jubilee celebrations as an animated Meghan Markle appeared to playfully 'shush' other children within the family.

*VR?

Animated in the sense that Tom and Jerry were animated? Although far less amusing of course, and without the coloured housekeeper often seen doing the dishes in the kitchen, or taking a Tenis Raquet to Tom's backside.

(I infer no relationship between Markle's ancestry and that of a certain cartoon charactor, although in truth Harry is proving to be an excellent Tom. )

They are managing to shove them into the background at the Jubilee. But, whenever photographed Nutmeg has this stupid actress false grin all the time. It really makes me want to smack her in the face. Also see that they lowered the windows on their car, against security advice, to wave to the crowds. Thought that they were worried about security there.

I see Harry has his Platinum gong now. Did Grannie relent and slip it to him yesterday?

They have really been shoved into the background at this shindig. Don't know why they bothered to go. I am sure that HMQ was pleased to see her latest great grandchild so for just that it was worth them going across.

Perhaps one last olive branch to return to the firm?

If some photographs of the St Paul's service haven't been doctored and show what appears to be Mrs Mountbatten-Windsor wired for sound (or 'content' as Netflix would call it) , then I would think any olive branch will have been shredded then well and truly burnt.

I am sure that if it is true it will have been picked up by The Royal Household and it will be another black mark.

Then they left before the end, in an exec jet of course.

It has been commented that the whole Royal Family were very regal throughout the celebrations whereas Nutmeg just wanted to be a celebrity.

They flew out from Farnborough. Bet the duty bods at Northolt were pleased they didn't have to wear their No1s and stand in a row to see them off.
