@RE_DailyMail
I was a Royal follower during the Diana years so Camilla was not one of my favorites at first. But her humble attitude & dedicated service to the Monarchy has won me over. This is much deserved 👏🏼👏🏼
@RoyalReporter
His mental state is genuinely concerning. He thinks Di was chased by paps b/c Dodi wasnt white??! Di was chased by paps no matter who she dated! And MM was never chased by paps. In fact, early in courtship, she (or one of her friends) *called* the paps to get photos of her.
“Meghan failed to grasp the simple truth that, constitutionally, she wasn’t quite Kate’s equal. And that is nothing personal, nothing racist, nothing sinister, nothing bad. It is just the way it works when you are a not-so-merry wife of Windsor”
I’ve followed the Royal family since the 1990s but only recently learned
#PrincePhillip
enjoyed oil painting. I had no idea! My fave piece is The Queen at Breakfast>>
“In your statement preceding your departure from Royal duties you pledged to always uphold the values of the monarchy. Well, Sir, you have a mighty strange way of showing it! How does your professed loyalty square w your present outbursts of spite & anger?”
Meghan Markle is playing word games through her lawyer again. She denies “bullying” specifically (see below) but technically, has not denied she mistreated, intimidated or abused her staff. Reminds me of Clinton & his “I did not have sexual relations with that woman” speech 😳
I will never forget when Kate met little Diamond Marshall in Canada. Diamond was beyond thrilled to meet a “real princess” & yet was so shy when the moment came. Kate & Will were both so very sweet with her. ♥️♥️

I’m conflicted. Richard is correct that mistakes can happen & I’m glad he was honest about it. But this was a horrible mistake to make with very serious accusations being hurled at Prince William as a result. Can more be done to correct the situation?
@havendalegirl
Not at all. I asked our lovely colleagues at ITV last night to see if they had recorded that part of the conversation. They kindly did today so we were able to set the record straight. These things happen. Everyone makes mistakes. The important thing is to be honest about it.
I’m no fan of Meghan Markle but there’s misinformation floating around. When she was seen on Thurs 8/10, she was in Summerland,CA (coastal town next to Montecito). Very distinctive building. No “therapist” at that location but there’s a dentist, two beauty/skin care places, etc.
@chrisshipitv
I really don’t understand the need for this photo shoot? In the US, we celebrate Veteran’s Day this Wednesday (11 Nov). It’s a federal holiday even. Why not celebrate with the rest of America on Wednesday? 🧐
29 April 2011: At their reception, William & Catherine had an eight-tier fruitcake decorated with over 900 leaf and floral touches created by baker Fiona Cairns. Kate requested flowers symbolizing each of the four nations in the U.K.

At the Queen Mum’s funeral in 2002, many men in the family wore their military uniforms (except Edward). I expect we’ll see the same for Philip’s funeral. Curious as to what
#PrinceHarry
will wear. He did earn rank of Captain in the Army. Can he wear a dress uniform now?Thoughts?
I just adore this moment with Prince William & Catherine at the hospital in Pakistan. So sweet of them to have “tea” with this little girl ♥️♥️

In response to Knauf’s statement, the duchess concedes in her witness statement: “In light of the information and documents that Mr Knauf has provided I accept that Mr Knauf did provide some information to the authors of the book and that he did so with my knowledge, for a…
@rjmyers
Good. H. returning in ANY capacity is not a good idea. He’s proven to be untrustworthy & a liar. He’s shown zero remorse for anything he’s said & done. He is not fit to represent the Monarchy. The public will not accept him after everything he’s done.
Yes, Prince Louis’s bike has no pedals. 😁 It’s a Balance Bike meant for 2-3 year olds. Not meant to have pedals, stabilizers, training wheels, etc. They help younger children build the core cycling skill of balance. 🎂
#PrinceLouis
You know what’s telling about this…when The Times printed their article about Meghan abusing her staff at KP, no libel action from the Sussexes. Doesn’t that just tell us everything we need to know?
Prince Harry has launched a new High Court libel action against the publisher of the Daily Mail... his team not currently revealing what it's all about
@chrisshipitv
I think that’s a fair point. Sarah Ferguson, in her autobiography, explained how humiliating & wretched it was to be called “Duchess of Pork” in the UK headlines. Just because a woman has gained a little weight!? I always felt
@SarahTheDuchess
was treated unfairly in the press 😞
@theroyaleditor
I’m American & many I know feel this way (if they even know who she is at all…) I’ve have extensive family in CA and we’ve yet to meet a MM fan there “in real life.” 😬
HMTQ loved her son so it was hard for her to deal w Andrew. Charles, as his brother, is able to be more decisive. Charles has a hard time being firm w son, Harry. I anticipate Will, as a brother, will have no problems being decisive w H when he is King
@MirrorRoyal
Don’t give in Charles. If they’re going to be “demanding,” they can stay home. It’s an honor to attend the coronation, not a right. They’re GUESTS.
Super nanny Jo Frost commenting on Prince Louis’s energy & the parenting style of Catherine & Prince William. She has made some excellent observations in this post 👏👏👏
@scobie
@theipaper
H was not “forced” to be financially independent. He left by choice & H&M’s statement in Jan 2020 said they wanted to be free to make money & be financially independent. H has received millions from Di AND Charles so he’s quite rich! It’s simple H—live within your means.
2/“You have claimed that your father and his wife have leaked stories to the press. Have you ever leaked anything to the press? Did you tell Gayle King about your conversation with William following the Oprah interview?…”
@chrissyteigen
Meghan has chosen to give a huge public interview with Oprah while pregnant. I certainly don’t want her baby to come to any harm. But there’s two sides to the story and her former staff have the right to tell theirs now just as she has chosen to tell hers

A puppet would cause footsteps to be heard. Can’t see the roof to the left. Someone could be controlling the puppet from up there. Video ends before the figure moves too far away from edge of building
Harry & Meghan said in their interview a friend recommended they go into streaming on Netflix and Spotify because when they left the UK “they had no plans”? 🤔
@donnaw102
@UKRoyalTea
She waited until the Queen was laid to rest. Its fine to comment now on the Sussexes atrocious behavior since the Queen died. Go after H&M for their constant leaks to the tabloids et al this past week over petty & imagined grievances.
On 10 July 2019, Kate & the kids came to watch Prince William play polo at the Billingbear Polo Club. Loved her dress & Louis sucking his thumb. 💗So fun to see them eat lunch while Charlotte & George were sitting in the boot of the car 🙃

@KaylaAdams___
I feel so bad for the staff. This isn’t just a one off story. There is a pattern of Meghan & Harry mistreating staff again and again and again. And it continued in the US! God help the staff who work for them now. 😔
@TheWomensOrg
Thank you for the correction. But why is your original Tweet w MM credited as the author of that quote still up? Please delete as its causing confusion.
@MirrorRoyal
It’s not a family event. The balcony should be for working Royals only. It was their choice to leave the job and disparage the “family.” Actions have consequences. End of story.
@UKRoyalTea
@Murky__Meg
This is not good. On many levels. I think we all knew they allowed friends to share details but to have their staff and PR team directly involved in Finding Freedom? What on earth were they thinking? 😬
@RoyalReporter
I don’t envy William & Catherine today. Respect to William for answering as best he could given he was literally walking into an engagement when the question was asked.
I can see the concern. The parents at this preschool have to follow strict COVID guidelines (ie they’re not even allowed to enter the site) but two strangers & their photographer don’t have to follow these same guidelines? 😬😬
@GMA
Which “social justice” work would that be? They’ve barely done anything in the 2 years since they’ve left the RF?? There really was no one more worthy of this award? That’s depressing
@theroyaleditor
That doesn’t make any sense. Charles has offered him a place to to stay, right? He will be perfectly safe if he is with Charles or any of the Royals attending the event.
7/“When you saw these stories, what prevented you from challenging the narrative? You have been very clear of your unhappiness when your family fails to correct mistruths in the media. How is this situation different?” 👏👏👏👏
3/“…Has Omid Scobie ever Tweeted criticisms of Harry’s family with your knowledge or at your request? In your mind, is there a difference between leaking the truth?0
@scobie
He may not have shouted or yelled but he still used foul language with the Queen & said, “I don’t know what the hell is going on but this woman...” Harry’s team is now denying he even said that. (Curious use of the phrase “this woman” as well. 🤔)
@Murky__Meg
I just don’t understand why Meghan continues to make choices like this. The silly theater photos couldn’t wait? How can she say she supports women & purposely overshadow a domestic violence speech/event? Actions do not match her words. Again! 😢😢
@PageSix
I have no problem with her writing letters or lobbying senators. But she literally does it on her “Duchess of Sussex” letter head & signs it Meghan, Duchess of Sussex. Beyond ridiculous for her to use her UK title while lobbying US politicians. Why not just use her married name?
“Princess syndrome is a psychological condition that is about exhibiting behaviour akin to in fairytales…I think that when it comes to Meghan, there are traits – her reflex to look at things externally, her overemphasis of herself and this idea that others revolve around her.”
@ThePerezHilton
@DuchessDearly
I don’t understand them. Why don’t Harry & Meghan just concentrate on actually BEING good people? Stop lying, no more drugs, serve the community, get out of the public eye, live w/in your means…Then they won’t have to spend $$$$ on PR to try to convince us they’re “good people.”
@philibetharchiv
Yes. And they have direct quotes from staff and emails. It’s been heavily researched & well written (which is good b/c they know the Sussexes have no problems suing news organizations)
@valentinelow
Agree. His perception of reality and facts is very off at times. He and Meg also contradict themselves constantly. When it’s pointed out to him, he gets defensive & upset. It’s a worrisome pattern of behavior
@danwootton
“Trin said she was 1 of 8 Sussex Squad members who had a password to the Henryscousin account.” There is zero evidence she shared this account w anyone. The SS used her name exclusively when speaking w her on Twitter. Only now does she say others had access to the account.
Exactly! Why hasn’t Meghan Markle sued
@thetimes
over the story they ran about her bullying her staff? (Hint: there must be evidence she did.) Her actions speak louder than her words.
@AussieHealth2
@angelalevin1
And even that isn’t true because he said in 2017 (below) that his brother & others convinced him to start seeing a counselor three years prior to that time. So. Many. Contradictions.
6/“Regarding Archie’s skin color, you seemed to imply in the Oprah interview that your family—or at least one member of your family — is racist. Yet recently, you told a British journalist that neither of you ever called your family racist — that that claim came from the media…”
@PatriciaTreble
@BaronessBruck
What a load of tosh. He couldn’t “protect” MM when they *lived* in the UK but he says he’s able to “protect” HMTQ in a quick visit from CA??
I don’t usually spend too much energy on determining if celebs have photoshopped a photo. But what the heck did they do to Meghan’s thumb in this one? The other image is a public photo of what her thumb should look like.
#photoshopfail
@people
Hey
@people
why not ask MM’s former staff about her “trail blazing feminism”? Doubt they’ll paint such a rosy picture after they suffered harassment & abuse while working for her. MANY being young women themselves…😞
@PageSix
2/ Her married name is Rachel Meghan Mountbatten-Windsor. Not Duchess of Sussex- that’s a title & was a gift from the Queen. MM also told Gloria S that we should be “linked not ranked” yet she uses her rank whenever possible, even in the US where it’s not recognized. Ridiculous
Happy Birthday to The Duchess of Cambridge! Not only is she beautiful & kind but I truly admire her commitment to her young children & her husband, while also serving the Monarchy. ♥️♥️

@scobie
Good! I hope more staff are allowed to break their NDAs. If H&M have nothing to hide, they should also allow their former staff, nannies etc to break their NDAs so the truth will be known (vs the “truth” M&H are so desperate for us to believe)
Absolutely a must read. Valentine Low must have had access to many direct sources to print such details, esp knowing Harry & Meghan could sue. I’ll post some of the most striking excerpts below…
Prince Harry is looking nervous. He’s got to tell the Queen that he and Meghan are about to detonate a bomb under what has, until then, been a very successful autumn tour. And he’s not looking forward to the prospect
@Newsweek
Absolutely. I’m an American who is sick of her half truths &!flat out lies. She got caught lying to the court! Who does that? Her high staff turnover is an indication she’s awful to work for. Release KP staff from NDAs so the victims of her bullying can openly tell their story
