Hi, I can assure you that us ordinary Joe public from the UK did not hound the palace for news of Princess Catherine, we did know exactly where she was and respected her privacy !!
All the Sewer Squad demanding 'proof of life' and then saying the photo was photoshopped or the woman shopping with William was a body double … 😠👿😠👿
King Charles really does LOVE CATHERINE. SHE IS THE DAUGHTER HE NEVER HAD!
YES, he does. Poor little Megsie: that why she starts selling plates now... she smashed a lot recently and buys in bulk anyway ;-)
@@yasmeen6790 I figured she would go to a high end thrift store to get her dishes to break
Yes, I think Princess Catherine loves King Charles too. Plus she gets along very well with Queen Camilla. Plus Catherine always acts respectfully and from the beginning always tried to fit in by learning the protocol.
o8hrs If he really loved her he would do something about his beloved younger son
I love the way he always refers to Catherine as his beloved daughter in law 💖. That must really get get under Meghan’s skin 😁
Catherine should be very careful of anyone selling apples from any orchards.
Meg loves her Disney Princesses, Snow White anyone?
😂😂😂
Amen on that!!!
Ooohhh I get you, must warn the real princess
😂😂
I can remember the way the York girls treated Catherine - really stupid to do that to the future Queen x
They still do it or at least Eugenie’s does. It’s written all over her face 😅
Jealousy. I think Bea knows where her bread is buttered but l can't stand Eug.
Media are back peddling, We only wanted Catherine to Rest and take time to Recover.
I’ve always thought that Eugenie was Harry’s mole in the family .
Think many do !
I think so. Rumour has it that she was given the hard word just before Christmas.
So, she snubbed Catherine, but shines up to Icky Rachel? 🤔 Sounds like Eugenie picked the losing team, and cooked her own goose. Icky Rachel and Hairball can have her.
She used to be. IMO after her son was shown in the Netflix series Princess Eugenie is no longer team Suss-ex. All stories and pictures of their great friendship are pre Netflix show.
As HG Tudor says, the paid PR puff pieces are bringing up the past to control the present.
@@Anna_Key I hope this is true! I want to like Eugenie...
Question - how can Harry and Meghan have reached out PRIVATELY to PW and PC if we are hearing it in a newspaper or Media outlet? Makes you wonder hmmm 😂
It is always just lies upon lies upon lies upon lies. Never anything else.
I seriously doubt they spoke directly to William and Catherine. They likely were able to get a message passed to them through a high ranking staffer at Kensington. It wouldn’t surprise me if William didn’t change his number or blocked the Sussex duo from contacting him.
Okay, I'll start by identifying that I'm an American who married a Brit and we live in the Midlands. When Harry first started appearing with Ms Markle at things, I vaguely recognised her from "Suits", but everyone here just wanted Harry to be happy. Nobody seemed to be saying anything negative here, either in the press or on TV or just gossip in the area where I live. Where I live, it's mostly positive about the Royals, and Harry had been put in good light for awhile as far as the public saw.
When Megxit was announced, again, the general vibe was "what makes them happy". Maybe people felt a little confused about the idea of "part-time Royals", and the notion that the late Queen (I imagine gently but firmly) resisted that suggestion. And it was after that that gossip started that Meghan was being bullied by palace staff because of her being mixed race. My husband never accepted that. He said that the Queen dealt with people of all colours and creeds and nationalities and so on, and treated everyone, rich or financially struggling or in-between, with courtesy and good manners. This wasn't her "public face" while privately she (and others among the Royal family) might have had prejudice? Utter nonsense. These imagination starved gossips probably didn't even casually come face to face with even a fifth of the variety of races etc whom the Royals encounter regularly. Consider who she has guested in the Palace over the decades of her reign. It's honestly beneath just ignorance to pretend that the late Queen, the late Duke of Edinburgh, King Charles, or any of the current working Royals would enable staff to behave badly or disrespectfully to Meghan or anyone else in their circle.
You are a lovely lady, Shauna. Hope you have a very happy Easter! Please get your boys their own chocolate (I approve you protecting your eggs though).
Meghan is Meghan. She has been gunning for the royal family long before she met Harry. Just read the article Meghan wrote about Catherine in 2014.
I had never seen suits or meg the famous American actress 🤔
@@isabelwright8910 Probably just as well. I wasn't a Suits fan as such, but I had seen a couple of the early episodes in the first season.
Thank you for that Nancy, we did want the best for Harry and his chosen love and were so pleased that she was of colour. Not one person, that I know, ever mentioned her skin tone, only her personality.
My opinion is that MM was jealous, of the love that Harry had for Princes Catherine. I'm sick of hearing news out-let's talking about the brothers at war. It's one brother and his wife, at war with everyone, that stands in her way. She wants power and Dollars, at any cost.
The children, will be next, she is a Narcissist and will always put herself before them.
Thank you Nancy for stating clearly what we all feel about the terrible accusations that gave since been proved wrong. The title of the book Revenge was spot on: Meghan has been exacting revenge for not getting her way by using the lowest means she can.
With all the mooted reconciliations between the Royal brothers that poor bloody olive tree must’ve lost all its branches by now!
Notice all the 'reconciling' posts all come from Camp Harkle, and then the King sends Henry off after 12 minutes, doesn't tell him a thing about his illness or that of Princess Catherine.
It is a mere twig 🤔
There is no reconciliation.
I don’t know who they think they are trying to fool with this constant reconciliation BS. Even under normal healthy circumstances they are not wanted or trusted and during illness they’d be wanted even less
That olive tree is as real as the imaginary Parkle 'children'.
Roll up for Meghan’s Ghost Tour…for an extra $50 she’ll show you how to ghost your family
😂😂😂
She starred in Hallmark films. One was titled Dater's Handbook.
How to corner a guy and steer him into marriage.
She could be a guest lecturer at a University. Maybe she could start her own.
It worked for Trump. For a while anyway.
😂😂😂
Brilliant!
Thanks! That made me laugh out loud!
Eugene was really rude at church, pushing Catherine. Well, the joke's on her. "Commoner" Catherine is beloved and appreciated by everyone with a functioning brain😊
I wish the media would stop talking about olive branches. Henry and Rachel would need to ship an ‘orchard ‘ (get it) 😂😂😂 of olive trees.
William has nothing to offer an olive branch for.
Brilliant but the Roots would walk Straight back to original Spot.
I agree
Totally agree. And bending over backwards to appease Harry!
Her PR is very busy again from misleading stories in online publications for nearly two months now to olive branches and self-aggrandizing articles
Olive grove
I have spoiled free ranging backyard chickens who poop everywhere all the time. I don’t see Megan spending one minute taking care of her “rescue” chickens much less cleaning up their poop when she works practically zero on her charity and podcasts.
She's lurking around LA restaurants and hotels making 'deals' or trying to
No she is alligning herself with powers that be through Archewell to get control over social media. There is a huge push on that going on
I too have rescue chickens …. It definitely requires care !!!
we should be seeing photoshopped heart string setups soon from meagain...
Easter eggs from her rescue chickens.

I've commented on heaps of channels that it was all driven by the press, NOT the public!!
Right. Then they claimed that Russia, China and Iran did it.
Agree. I've been saying that the press, especially in the US, can keep on all the live long day but the public doesn't automatically affect buy it like they did years ago. The Public isn't agreeing and the press can't change their minds.
Right. Me too. Outrageous. The public saved the day. I don't consider trolls and bots as the public. The media have been feeding the trolls non stop and now conflate the public with those vile idiots to escape their responsibility. I hope they enjoy the hopefully massive unsubscribing.
The people in the uk who stole the health records committed a crime under the data protection act as did the people who bought it. The police are involved , I hope they prosecute.
Press and online trolls initially, but I guess the public was engaging in it to keep the story alive. It’s hard to isolate who’s at fault because the one force drives the other, and it becomes a vicious circle. If we don’t watch things, or comment on them, eventually things would die down. But yah, the press took this story and RAN with it. And some journalists have had to apologize for demanding that Catherine go out in public or make some sort of new statement. It’s ridiculous
No Haz! William is not interested. Go away and never come back.
If Eugenie that Catherine was a commoner why is she friends with Markle, the yacht girl.
Good comment
Maybe because Princess of wales will one day be Queen while the DOS would always remain at a lower level than a Princes (Eugenie)
Eugenie and Rachel visit Soho House. That explains it all, no class.
The public was never to blame. I was hsppy to wait till Easter and have to say I was furious at the rubbish being put out in the media. Shauna sip, sip prosecco tonight🍾🥂 Have a fab Easter. 🐰 hope you and family enjoy❤
Ich auch. Sie sind die einzig i interessante und beste. UA-camrin 🇩🇪💗
I dont think mm was hounded at all. She calls the paps now, still plays victim
She did that back in 2016 November too when she went to a very public lunch with Markus Anderson to an expensive restaurant in Toronto and the Daily Mail UK article kept gossiping about her secret dates with Harry.
So she kept forcing Harry to give a declaration via Kensington Palace that they should leave her alone.
According to Spare, she kept complaining to Harry all the time in those days how much she suffered from being chased so often.
All their footage in the docudrama showed NO people around them, much less photographers, and the one delivery guy.
Her and Harry were the most upset when true things leaked out. He admitted as much in Spare! He tries saying in an interview that “the Palace briefed the media daily with lies” because he will say anything to take heat off her! Even pretend that he already had an issue with William.
Jesal's interview about how she "contacted" him in order to get photographed in Toronto, London & even India is still available to watch here on UA-cam. The DM wrote about her walk back & forth in front of their offices to bring attention to her "relationship" with Sparry.
@@ytcomms3945yes that’s was the first red flag for me. I was like what??? I’ve sen no footage of her being hounded and not many news stories so why was Harry putting out this unprecedented statement to media to back off from her.
God, the media make me physically sick to my stomach, seriously.
Meghan wish she was hounded by the press. She is not and never was. She calls the papa in herself. She gets one photograph and cried to Harry about see they are bothering me.
That poor guy he could have been Uber eats just trying to get someone’s pizza delivered before it gets too warm
I have a feeling that this is one of the things about Harry that she used to attract him because of his need to protect his mother even though he was just a child when she died.
😂😂 definitely house coat.
Well known that she was a laughing stock in the Toronto Police Department. Always calling them that she was being stalked, yet there was never anyone outside her house, other than the normal parked cars on the street with no on in them.
Difference with Highgrove and Megs website is King Charles started the Highgrove one to be more sustainable and all the profits goes to his charitable causes such as the prince's trust.
Happy Easter all 🐰🍫✝️
I’m sure M will donate proceeds from her “Orchard” to charity too!
@@KatherineSpinks-cu9io lmao, I'm sure she wont.
Donate to charity not a hope
@@KatherineSpinks-cu9ioYou must be joking.
@@KatherineSpinks-cu9io😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Yes I can just imagine dear Charles toddling down the hospital corridor. As they've known each other 20 odd years now, they share a special relationship I'm sure.
I like to think so 💕
The “toddling” comment actually made me feel bad for poor Charles. I thought it was in reference to his discomfort after his prostate procedure, rather than his age.
Yes I can see that - he does walk a lot normally so should be ok. Love the word though - sounds like me first thing in the morning 😂x
I've heard someone else commenting on the picture of Charles toddling down the hospital corridor - they suggested he was wearing a back fastening hospital gown with his bum on display!
And she has been rock to William, also a sister to harry… his darling boys. But hope he can be firm now that the monarchy and the wales is under constant attack. He needs to discipline the Yorks and Sussex, in order to protect the wales. Getting a bit GOT 😅
Rachel was never hounded nor photographed by the paparazzi as she was deemed uninteresting, old, not high profile, not really a looker. The British press had standards. Poor thing. So, she had to buy backgrid or Misan to be photographed. Allegedly.
Hollywood directors termed her uninteresting and very ordinary, so didn't have any roles that would fit her.
Eugenie is the one who was feeding information to H&M and she was the one who introduced Nutmeg to Harry
I have some sympathy for the residents of Montecito. I wonder if their properties have plummeted in value.
Probably!
I read something this morning that Monteshitshow was sold Oct ‘23.
The visuals of the bridge breaking up was horrifying! At least it wasn't peak hour traffic.
Just how quickly can the character of a community be destroyed by having a bad egg move in next door. I operated a home daycare. I taught the children how important it is to care for others. I was the youngest homeowner in my neighborhood for many years. We would rake leaves, leave May Day bouquets on the doorknobs of everyone, making special gifts and expressions of love. The children and I forged the most precious friendships. I see my “children” occasionally, it makes me feel so good that they always greet me with the most delicious hugs and enthusiasm having run into me. Somethings were never the same after a few beloved neighbors passed on.
@@thevintagereadIn German the plant is called 'Sauerklee' - 'sour clover'.
Not in my name Shauna - I was quite happily waiting until after Easter before we heard anything about Catherine. I was giving her the time she asked for. And we're still not quite at Easter !!!
The American UA-camrs that base their channels on pro-Meghan, anti-Catherine stories have driven the "where's Kate" nonsense. The rest of us knew exactly where she was.
And with what Princess of Wales was dealing !!! No doubt that it was serious .
Yes, and we Americans know exactly who started MSM up! They seem to control People TMZ Vogue etc....
@@christinecandelier7380 Yes. I'm confident that Catherine has been & is receiving the best of care and will make a full recovery. Still, what she is dealing with is serious and frightening for her, William and their children.
Earlier I heard that Harry was DEMANDING AN APOLOGY FROM WILLIAM AND CATHERINE BEFORE HE WOULD AGREE TO RETURN TO CARRY OUT ROYAL VISITS.
IN HIS WILDEST DREAMS.
Coffee and Shauna. Best way to wake up ❤❤❤
Picturing KC toddle to visit Princess Catherine is such a heartwarming thought.
Agree, best way to start my day!
Absolutely ❤❤
The image in my head of KC toddling down a hospital hall involves a plaid robe with velvet collar, distinguished dark slippers and a polite request for darjeeling for his beloved Catherine.
I have always thought that the awful hats the two York girls wore at William and Catherine's wedding were their way to try and disparage and ridicule the connection
I always called them "The Ugly Sisters" who had as much dress sense as their Mother. They seem very entitled (thanks to P. Andrew) and looked down on Catherine from the start. Princess Catherine has more class in her little finger than both of them.
Those hats!!! I would love to hear Shaunas take on them!
They just ended up looking ridiculous.
I agree. The York sisters wanted to take attention away from Catherine and shine it on themselves when they wore those ludicrous hats to W and C's wedding. It worked! That moment is preserved for posterity. They will remain laughingstock through the ages. Good.
@@pamelacole2756 Yes I know they did and I applaud them for that, but I am not so sure that it was the intention from the start. I believe that they were taking the p*ss.
I certainly have heard that Princess Eugenie does not like the Princes of Wales (Catherine).
I have read that also. Considered her a commoner. Some of William’s friends also. She proved William has excellent taste and judge of character!
She showed it very clearly in her body language and utterly rude behavior when in public. It was quite obvious, and in stark contrast with Beatrice's behavior. I truly think that she feels overshadowed by Catherine
Eugenie is part of the Soho circle of mean girls are are *almost* someone important. Mischa Noono, Megan, Eugenie, Cressida, Markus. Catherine is a very different character and that was never her crowd. I think all of the Yorks have been glowing embers of inferiority since the day they were born. Such a stark difference between the way Princess Anne and Prince Edward’s families interact with the Wales family. Andrew and Harry are two mushrooms off the same toadstool.
Remember the hats worn by the sisters to William & Catherine’s wedding? They were outrageous. Definitely trying to draw attention from the bridal couple.
Isn't Sarah, her mother, a commoner?
Oh my gawd! You shared my Angel kisses and called me a “gentleman”. Thank you! Absolutely thrilled.
Ian
Well you are! My pleasure 💗💗💗
I read years ago the William doesn't like Andrew, thinks he's arrogant, entitled and lazy. William was the one who stood firm against Andrew, and said Andrew has to step back from the monarchy when the Epstein story came to light. Prince William will be a very good king when the time comes. Thoughts and prays to Princess Catherine
I am with you. Beatrice snd Eugeney cannot be trusted. No public support from them for Caterine after the video announcing her cancer diagnosis.
In fairness, there's been no public support from any family members - except HMTK - and that's the way it should be IMO.
I would support Beatrice.
@@kymmcculley7840 Beatrice improved very much, in all ways, since marrying the excellent Edo. He seems to keep her on the straight and narrow, and dilute some of the bad influences from other Yorks. However, a working royal, going forward, must be completely loyal, trustworthy, and have sound judgment. The working family simply could not sustain another troublesome working member, and taking a risk on Beatrice is not a good idea. It's a pity, because Edo would make an excellent working royal.
Why should they make a public statement.?
@@kymmcculley7840 Me too.
Indeed, wind down those electric windows.
Absolutely, no one in the public that follow the Royals was pushing for the media to get more information, let alone harass them.. Actually I noticed that an overwhelming amount of people were commenting for and to the media to leave her alone.
I have actually re-watched William and Catherine Wedding in 2011 on Historic events.. It is so amazing to look at the difference between now and then , only what 12 years ago , it is almost like a different world, just looking at the crowd. But I noticed the way the Bride and groom looked at each other and they still look at each other like that to this day..
Beautiful.
I agree. Most of the comments I read asked the media to leave Princess Catherine alone.
Every member of the public I know, were disgusted with the way Catherine was being bullied by the media.
As you said, we all knew she was going to be taking time off, to recover, until after Easter.
In fact, the public don't see her every week, or month, so were not remotely bothered.
It was really offensive to see how evil the press were behaving.
They should feel very shameful, and deserve to lose millions of viewers.
I won't watch Piers Morgan's channel after that, and there will be thousands like me.
He behaved disgustingly. ☹️
Kinsey Schofield was crying about the way the media had treated Catherine. Probably crying for her own 'career' as she was one of the first.
Every week there are two types of articles - A (Royal Member of the Family) wants to reunite Harold and Prince William! the other one is Harold and his wife will return to UK as royals on their own terms! (all of this wishful thinking and propaganda from Camp Harkle)
I'm hoping that in a decade, the stupid stories will die out. They will never be working Royals again. It will become apparent in time.
My older brother always spent all of his pocket money within a couple of day, but I was always a saver. One day he came to my room and asked me to give him some money, I told him if he couldn’t make his money last for a week, that wasn’t my problem. A few hours later he pushed a note under my bedroom door. It was a ransom note, he had stolen my favourite barbie (ballerina barbie, she had a beautiful tutu & a crown). He demanded I give him my pocket money or “Barbie would get it”. I refused, about 20 minutes later he called me outside, he had made a noose & hung Barbie from the garage roof. I just laughed it off & went back inside. A while later I heard a bang & went outside, he had stuffed her with firecrackers & blown her head off.
I remember going to my Dad with Barbie’s body & her half melted, charred head. Poor Dad really tried to be sympathetic but he was suppressing the giggles the whole time. My brother did get in trouble but my favourite Barbie was never the same, it’s hard to pirouette with your head constantly falling off 😆
Aaaaw!! 😭😭 Pesky brothers!! 😈😂
He sounds like a Harry terror!
Thank you for a good laugh ! Almost glad I never had a brother!
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
That is a sad story. And your brother was mean.
Agreed - really mean brother - watch your back
I've always thought that Eugenie resented Catherine. I think that Beatrice has matured alot and has a better relationship with them.
Beatrice adored the Queen. Also, I think her marriage to the lovely Eddo, and being a mum has matured her a lot.
Her husband probably set her straight. Fighting families aren't fun to be in.
I also think they tricked her into giving them the key to QEII's play house. That upset her greatly.
No one knew how MM was when she was dating H to begin with.
I DO REMEMBER Meghan walking up and down, in and out of the side gate to Nottingham Cottage carrying her canvas shopping bag and she wore a baseball cap pulled over her eyes. She was trying to get the media to photograph her, but only one photographer bothered 😂😂😂😂
I'm an American and I remember that specifically because whoever photographed it noted that there's a separate entrance for the Royals and their guests. It was being done deliberately.
But then that's when I thought maybe she doesn't know? I and everyone I knew were very pro her and happy that Harry had found someone nice. I thought she was pretty.
And then that hateful despicable disgusting interview. I was enraged that they would even consider airing that when Prince Philip was dying in the hospital.
Catherine was hounded terribly while dating William!
It was the media and press who fed the trolls. Seeing the news on media like talk tv and GB news all backtracking but not to worry the public are putting them in their place and reminding them what they did.
Trusting family secrets with certain people is like giving a toddler a bag of glitter - messy and bound to end up everywhere."
Whatever the mattress actress wears looks awful, that dress/coat thing by Carolina H was just horrible as is most of her designes that I have seen. Did you see that the AP agency that killed the Princess of Wales photo has just lost a large American contract. They've been Markled.
Gannet which is USA Today and 200 local papers. The second one is McClatchy which publishes Miami Herald, Kansas City Star and others.
The funniest thing about that housecoat cape thing Rachel wore (even funnier than how it looked on her) is that Hilary Clinton had already been photographed wearing it first. Is she seriously taking fashion inspiration from Hilary? Or is Rachel trying to ingratiate herself to Hilary? And if so, why?? I have read numerous times in the past about the York sisters' (and their mother's) jealousy, disdain & catty treatment of Princess Catherine. All seemingly stemming from the fact that Catherine was above them in the royal hierarchy and therefore they had to curtsy to her even though they themselves were born princesses and she a lowly commoner. Apparently they also hated all the media attention she received and that's why they would always wear those ridiculous hats to events. To ensure they got more coverage & photos in magazines and in turn, Catherine less. I doubt William was ignorant to it all then, nor forgets it now.
I completely agree.
Hmm interesting thought about those hats. I’ve always thought they just had dreadful taste. It was only when Beatrice married Edo that. she began to look elegant.
The coat looks like Lucille Ball’s cleaning housecoat when she was pregnant.
Yes! That’s it!
Great description.
It so does!!!🤣🤣🤣
😆
My gosh yes! I just commented that a minute ago on someone else's post. Exactly what I thought of except, to be honest, this coat is prettier and would've looked nicer on someone tall who could carry it off.
I agree Eugene needs to step back. I have no doubt HARRY has put this idea in her head. She needs to keep out of it!!
Any money of mine must NOT contribute towards M’s clothes wardrobe! Charity only.
Watching now!! Putting the ‘sip’ into ‘gossip’…enjoy those choccy eggs for us Shauna
Putting the ‘sip’ into ‘gossip’ - love it - brilliant!
😅😂😅😂❤
Good one! Well done you!
Oh dear ! That's all I can say about Meghan's outfit 😳 As for the public being blamed for the media hysteria over Catherine, every news channel hyped the story ! All the comments from the public rubbished them. Gaslighting 🤔
When you look at the past together at Christmas performances when the Royal Family greet each other, I notice Princess Eugenie does not really speak to Catherine, Princess of Wales.
Yes I’ve noticed that!
Princess Beatrice's and Husband Edo always seem happy in the Wales company, Edo always looks genuinely happy when interacting.Jack on the other hand not so much.
Andrew fell out with Charles years ago over protection and jobs for his daughters.
I think Harry wife had it easy with the press, not like the others wives where the press was in their face constantly... I think TOW was disappointed and not to happy that she wasn't treated like the rest of the women where the press was concern... ❤
They are saying it was Russia and Chinese bots! Yea right!
I think they were part of it but some were just too specific to be done by anything but a human commenting on something I said on this channel. I’ve never seen anything like what I saw here last week.
In my opinion Bouzy was heavily involved. Just like half of Meagains subscribers are bots very probably bought from him.
Chẳng phải Nga hay Trung Quốc ,của mấy người cả ,ném đá con người ta khi bệnh tật là vô nhân tính nhất ,giờ đổ vấy cho người khác .
They clearly did not research it well enough, or else they would know that Ragland has numerous bots she bought in 2018/19 and bots she bought in India at the beginning of this year
@@annatjienilsen539 but China and Russia are piling it on too. They, Russia falsely announced King Charles demise. He’s been seen in public many times since.
I am so happy that you still have a sister, a brother and a mother. Really really appreciate that.
Agreed.
Just think that one day Eugenie and Beatrice will have to bow to Princess Catherine!
I think they already have to curtsey to her, don't they? Ever since she married William, I would have thought. Would someone truly knowledgeable please confirm or correct.
And refer to her as Your Majesty. I believe Beatrice and Eugenie have to curtsey to Princess Catherine when she is with Prince William but not if she is without him.
@@whitefox2336 I think you're right. The wife's status depends on whether she is with her royal husband or not. It's all rather convoluted, IMO.
With Catherine, real family relationships are important. I think King Charles must appreciate this.
Good morning all !!
Coffee with friends.
Happy Easter to all that celebrate.
The head rests in cars can be pulled up and the big spikes can be used to break windows. This is apparently a safety design but not many people seem to know about it
But would you have time? 😂💕
It is hard to pull them off, I've tried just even re-positioning them.
@@thevintageread you have quite a bit of time before the car fills. The window hammer/seat belt cutter, suggested above is a good investment.
@@thevintageread I have a window hammer/seat belt cutter. When my daughter was little she was forbidden to take it out of its spot behind my seat. I wanted (and still do) to know exactly where it is. I would only buy cars that had roll down windows till about 10 years ago when they stopped making them. I "get" your concern!
When I had my dogs I would give them an Easter egg hunt (one dog at a time). I would hide doggie treats and such around the back fenced in yard. Oh how I miss that. I love the TRUE meaning of Easter......Christ has Risen indeed!
Great story, and yes---🕊️✝️
I loved the story of the stuffed elephant. I want to share my stuffed animal story. I am a fifth generation Floridian just for perspective. It was the Christmas of my 9th year and my mother got me this lovely cuddly stuffed pink frog with a beautiful gold crown. I adored him the moment I met him. I was a freakishly imaginative child who created entire personalities around ALL of my stuffed animals. Within seconds I was sure this frog was an Ausie! He said his name was Sydney. By the time I reached my 60th year poor old Sydney finally completed disintegrated. I cried for him. My husband sought out another frog with a crown for me! This one is green and he calls himself Brisbane! Long live the spirit of Sydney and my freakish imagination! SIP!!!
You are absolutely right about Eugenie
I find it strange that Eugenie was so snooty about Catherine yet appears to have welcomed the SoHo barfly with open arms.
Megsy know andrew very well 😂
William already knows H wants something from him. It was said that H wanted half of the proceeds of the Duchy of Cornwall, that it "wasn't fair' that W got all of it.
I bet Harry didn't want any of the responsibility that came with the Duchy.
King Charles was completely financing him for years from Duchy of Cornwall and I am sure that would have continued
@@deeshires8721KC said that the Dad ATM is closed.....why do you think the nastiness towards the RF...
Thatvis why he got the giant share of Diana's estate as well as from his great grandmother's estate. William got very little
By that logic charles should've shared Duchy income with his siblings. Why didn't Harry asked charles to share it with Andrew, Edward and Anne?
Still, after more than fifty years, we still repeat Johnnie Craddock's famous sign off, "I hope all your scones look like Fanny's" Ah, innocent humour!
😂🤣💗
😅😅😅
I don't know, could look like banana sundaes these days! (Sorry, it's late. Should have gone to bed. Couldn't help myself! Night.)
😂😅😂
Never heard that expression nor know who Johnnie Craddock is/was. Thx for the chuckles. Best wishes from Adelaide; South Australia🦘🐨🇦🇺💐
Catherine was also hounded until shortly before the marriage, chased through an airport, her car surrounded multiple times, etc.
Agree with you, the Yorks are quite uppity! I'm not a great fan. Then Catherine comes along and shows them how to be royal! Serves them right! And I agree William has a very long memory... As Harry should know. It is either a stupid or stupidly brave person that touch William's family. Behind that warmth is a very steely and uncompromising resolve. I will not cross him...
Truth!
From a Brit's perspective, yes our tabloids are basically seen as parasites (to put it mildly), they don't mind piling on anyone (as demonstrated by the Catherine photo chaos). But I remember the overall reaction to Meghan and Harry being positive for quite a long time. Harry was always popular (despite a few missteps) and people were happy he'd found someone. Even leaving the Royals for the US had as much sympathy as suspicion. It was only when the endless PR campaign never seemed to stop (as parodied by South Park), the media tactics were just so blatant and see-through, including mentioning the Royal Family every other week.
I stopped buying newspapers in 2007. Never had one in the house since Reason- the Madeleine McCann story, what was being reported was not what the actual facts were in Portugal. The way they talked of the Portuguese Police and people was appalling. We had shifted to the Times shortly beforehand as it had switched from broadsheet to tabloid size . Suited me as I’m tiny.
However hated the lies and blind following if the parents despite many red flags.
We used to like the sun 2-in 1 cryptic/straight crosswords so my mum and sisters would take turns buying it, however they would immediately hide it on a folder or large handbag. We were rather snobby and would not be caught dead with the Sun on our person.
Hoping I’ve improved my shallowness but still will not buy newspapers. I’ll research online and check many sources rather than have one source.
@@whoseturnisit9733 I have stopped the Telegraph. Have read it for over 30 years as I thought it was a serious reporter of news. Having read that this is the only paper H&M will give news to and having noticed the 'leaning' recently towards those two and the last reporting of Catherine The Princess of Wales, I am now done. Also done with the BBC.
I am an English Monarchist.
Don't forget the poor girl, who is now in a,wheelchair, she was abused by Harry, the RF paid her millions 😢
Absolutely. I was never a total fan but public and press found H fun and wished him happiness. IMO Oprah finished everything.
I think you are spot on about Eugenie, I don’t think she would be trusted by William.
I suspected it was more serious that reported but it wasnt my business and she has the right to say or not say whatever she wants about her health. I refused to gossip and just said let her have her space and her privacy. Horrid trolls!
I’m the youngest of 5. If we heard sirens they told me the police were coming to get me for ripping tags off the pillows. I remember being terrified!
Oh no! That’s mean 😂💗
80s/90s - it was packs of photographers, crowded around the girlfriends/fiancées in the UK, shouting at the women, blocking their cars, in essence, assault. HRH Catherine, Princess of Wales, withstood less, but was still fairly badly harassed - in print as well: Waity Katie. Rachel had NONE of that because she was old (not some 19 or 20 yo), divorced, American, and not particularly interesting - think about it: mid-30s actress, no real acting resume, headed for permanent shelving due to aging out (because there's always a bazillion ACTUAL 20-somethings waiting in the wings who will work cheap to get that break), AND Henry had dated around, was old, and THE SPARE. Plus the World had HRH Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge. And like Mary Poppins, she was practically perfect in every way.
The world may have been intrigued as to what Henry was thinking, rushing into marriage with a divorced American actress, but they were past their prime. And just not that much of a story. Perhaps had they done this in their 20s, it would have generated more interest. But likely not; Rachel has always giving off that "smug b*tch" vibe, and that puts people off pretty quickly. Had she not had the "novelty" of being bi-racial, she might have seen a lot more negativity from the very beginning. And it is unlikely Henry would have received permission to marry - there were sufficient red flags to warrant a "no".
So let them say they were hounded...they are legends in their own minds only. The World knows the truth.
Catherine was really hounded. They used to wait for her to leave her apartment and their were swarms of them all yelling out to her and saying awful things to try and get a rise out of her. I remember they'd also swarm Catherine and Pippa late at night when they were coming home from the nightclub. One video comes to mind because Catherine wouldn't remove her hand from over her face and she was pleading with them to leave her alone, she sounded terrified. There's also one video where she's walking through the airport with her father and Pippa and they are calling her a whore and saying awful things to get her to look in their direction so they could get their shot. I can't imagine how hard it would have been for her father not to say something to defend her. It was just awful. Rachel wishes she received that kind of attention. That's what she wanted so she'd look popular, she has zero idea what it's like to be hounded in that way.
@@mezzamuddle she was and it was inexcusable, but it was "milder" compared to the "Diana" initiation due to law changes; Rachel faced none of that, and that was the main point
A lot of UK media people are saying that it was the mother's Day photo that caused the hysteria. Nope.
Vicars should be allowed to just live in the houses that come with their Church, they take care of their flock, are available at all times for there flock they should be given free housing.
My husband and I are Brits who have fond (aka terrified) memories of Mrs Cradock. When we heard that "Harry's Wife" was launching a cooking show we immediately said "MeMeMeAgain is going to become the NEW FANNY" 😁
I actually met Fanny Cradock in a works lift.1960s She and Johnny were doing some sort of reception 'do' for work. Imagine the TV look magnified in close quarters. !!
Thank you. Another enjoyable gossip. I remember Catherine’s first Carols evening. She and William were greeting the family guests. Eugenie very pointedly ignored Catherine but spoke to William who obviously saw the slight. Eugenie embarrassed herself that night in front of everyone. I think she has continued to attend those Carols evenings, which shows that Catherine is the bigger person.
You read the book MEET Me at the Lake so we don't have to.
Now you eat the chocolate eggs and the bunny so we don't have to. Thanks. You are very generous to us.
I am aren’t I 😂😂😂
Enjoying a “gossip whilst cooking my lunch in Cyprus. ❤
Your stories of your childhood memories bring mine back to me. Climbing oak trees and sucking nectar from the little blue fairy flowers growing in the grass. Never knew what their horticultural name was. I look at these modern housing developments and I feel sad that there is so often not even room for a tree to grow or even one left behind after clearing. The children living in these areas will never know the trepidation and exhilaration of climbing a mighty oak.
Oh! You just reminded me! We moved from California to Illinois & mom showed us how to suck the nectar from those little flowers! That was so “country” to me. 🥰
I'm wondering if those are honeysuckles - that's what we have in America and we did the same. They smell delightful in the summer along with the singing of the cicadas. Actually intoxicating is a better word
No I don't think you are being unfair re Eugenie. In fact, I thought your response was spot on and was just thinking I wish you worked for the Palace.
Wishing all the viewers for the upcoming religious observance, easter for the christians, Eid for the muslims and Passover for the jews, BLESSINGS to all.
We have a small tool that I keep in my door, that breaks the window immediately.
It's small and would fit in a purse.
PS. The freckle story is so funny. My sister has red hair and freckles. Years ago I would call her at her office and just say, 'is Spot available' and they would just put her on the phone. With a giggle, of course.
Shauna, I'm an American who has been following the Royals since the wedding of Prince William. I have a question. Why do the press and others constantly call Princess Catharine, "Kate"? Isn't that rude?
I was mortified when US past President Trump treated HRH Queen Elizabeth very arrogantly during his visit. And then I was horribly embarrassed at US President Biden not attending the coronation of King Charles. Really? What could have been more important than that historical event? And now, Pres. Biden's press secretary refers to the Princess of Wales as the Dutchess of Cambridge. How archaic!! Could she not have fact checked? Could she not have gotten this one thing correct in sending best wishes from our government ???
No US President has attended a coronation, why would Biden, not a fan of the man, but it's a non-story.
US presidents have never attended any coronation, inauguration, investiture, or the like. Traditionally, heads of state do not attend another head of state's coronation, etc. (so as not to take attention from the new monarch/celebrant is what I gathered). The heads of state who did attend KCIII's coronation were the ones breaking with a tradition of many centuries' standing.
Biden disdainsl his English heritage _ he only wants to be Irish and support the IRA.
Someone else wrote the statement and she just had to read it, probably couldn't make any changes to it, even if there were errors.
My parents owned a restaurant in Connaught Street, London, in the sixties. The Singing Chef. My Dad sang and played guitar after he finished cooking. Fanny and Johnnie Cradock used to visit regularly and got on very well with my parents. I sometimes escaped into the restaurant when I started crawling and would investigate ladies' handbags if they were under the table. Fanny used to bring a handbag and a clutch. The handbag, containing odd bits and empty cotton reels, went on the floor under the table. Whilst the clutch, containing personal items, makeup, perfume, etc, was placed on the table beside her. Dad wrote a lovely obituary for her when she died after seeing some reports that were very derogatory.
What lovely memories. The fact that many people still remember Fanny & Johnnie just goes to show how popular they were all those years ago; TV gold.
Love the display!! They taste virtually delicious!!😁❤️🇨🇦
The pile on hit me out of nowhere! I was satisfied with her pre operation explanation! I just don’t get it!🤷🏻♀️
Hahaha stop giving m ideas!!🤣
If I put on any weight, you're in trouble. 😅😂😅
@@alidabotes6264 hahaha
I’ve been to Highgrove. Not for a tight budget, but I bet ARO will be many more times expensive. Regardless, Highgrove would provide infinitely more value than ARO ever could.
Probably Temu repackaged.
Would love to see the gardens of HighGrove. I did see a special of King Charles taking you through his gardens. Breathtakingly beautiful!
@@deeshires8721 It was a lifetime experience and memory. I hope you can go. I will try to find that special to watch!
Eugenie is a double agent 😮
Katherine was hounded too. She was followed from morning til night and called all sorts of names. One time she was called a sl*t by a photographer just to try to get a reaction. Not once did that girl complain about it. That’s when they all knew she was special and a keeper.
Re: lighthouse keeper- guessing extroverts are not the ones that work in a lighthouse!
Good point 😂💕👏
Sipping with you from UK. I'm sipping a fruit tea. Love your generosity in eating the chocolate eggs for us all... My contribution will be to drink wine with you all later.
😂💕 Thanks!
A friend of mine had a brother who was trapped in his car with his family after a traffic accident. He said it was awful not being able to get them out before the car was cut apart around them. So my friend bought car glass hammers for EVERYONE he knows for Christmas one year. They can be gotten in auto supply stores and kept in the door pockets. It's a special tool which will fracture the window and can then be used to hammer the remaining glass out. There is a lot of danger of cuts in these situations, but clearly there are cost-benefits to be measured in each situation. If you're drowning or on fire or something, yeah. But if the rescuers are on the way and things are stable, maybe just try for calm ...
I can just see His Maj toddling down the hall in dressing gown (probably tartan) and slippers (probably purchased in 1972), cleaners and nursing staff and and all dropping a curtsy as he toddles past, mops and tin trays dropping in all directions. Shades of “Carry on King”. God bless and keep him.
Kindly humorous . Lovely xx That would make a good cartoon picture which I am sure the King would appreciate. He does have a sense of humour against himself.
@@gwendolineknox784 He does, doesn’t he. Otherwise I would not commit the lèse majesté. He would probably cheerfully own up to the tartan dressing gown and the ancient comfortable slippers. And, as for the Carry On reference, he probably also remembers the inimitable Hattie Jaques, and possibly even the daffodil.
There was a report going around that there would be a "virtual tour" coming, and for extra $$ you could see the kids....right, which ones...
Ouch! 😂💕
You could see the kids -- but only from the back. Big woop. Who would pay for that? LOL.
Happy Easter to all who celebrate! 🐣🌷Sip!
I live in East Tennessee (Appalachia) Wonder if we're neighbors of a sort? ❤
@@trussell9899 Indeed! I’m here in eastern kentucky, right in the beautiful Appalachian foothills. Howdy, neighbor! 🌄💙
I am in the Appalachian foothills on northeast Alabama. So we are all neighbors. A friendly wave to y'all 👋
I'm not a Christian, born into another faith. But born in the UK, love doing traditional things, like making a lamb roast, turkey at Christmas, home looks like Grotto. Always buy the expensive chocolate eggs after Easter, when they've been reduced. There's always a biblical film on, tear up, when Jesus is dragging his cross on his back. So traditional, without the faith.
@user -tt3The world would be a kinder place with more people expressing your acceptance of others and their traditions
I do believe King Charles III is of that disposition. He wanted to be "Defender of Faiths". I think that is fine as long as those other faiths do not overpower the faith of the host Country. There is room for everyone. Everything in moderation.
@@gwendolineknox784 Amen to that.
YES, I thought the thing MM was wearing was a frumpy housecoat! Also one size larger than she should, as usual!
Greeting from Poland! Time for dinner, bon appetit everyone.
Bon appetit 😋
I read (somewhere) when Catherine married William, the York girls ran to Granny (the Queen) to demand that Catherine curtesy to them. The Queen confirmed this as proper hierarchy however if William was present the girls would need to curtesy to William and Catherine. So, W&C combatted the jealous duo by William always escorting Catherine, and Catherine maintaining her own counsel and not joining the Yorks by herself. When I heard this story, I thought big mistake princesses, Catherine will outrank you and the born princesses will be less and less important as time moves on. P.S.- I always notice Eugenia’s body language around Catherine, I think it’s very transparent that she is still jealous of Catherine and feels negatively toward the future Queen. Beatrice seems to be better at hiding her feelings or is growing up! Just my opinion, Beatrice’s husband Edo has done wonders for her image, style and maturity.
Why credit a man with a woman growing up and improving herself?
@@Polopony Sometimes an immature woman needs an enlightening nudge from her man.
At Catherine's wedding,the two York girls,with their hideous head gear,and their demoralising,sarcastic treatment of Catherine,brings to mind,the appearance and behaviour of the two step sisters in Cinderella.
No York women please. My spidey sense is up with them !
What a brilliant idea Shauna about the car going into water ❤
