That all sounds as if it old very much be true, rumours from staff don't seem to have ever reached the media (here or abroad) as far as I'm aware; yet now there seem to be a few "leaks".I am ( as always ) about 2 threads behind!
Mild scoop here - I know someone whose other half works in/for the BRF. We are just FB fiends, but we do have a very close friend in common. They have always remained tight-lipped, but they have gone lockdown "bonkers" and started blabbing, as the staff are incandescent with rage. Our mutual friend met them for a drink this evening ( yay for open pubs! ) and this was said ( not verbatim ). Charles is in a state of paralysed shock. The Queen is protected and oblivious. However.....come the day HMTQ passes, a plan is afoot not to inform Harry until minutes before it is public, leaders of commonwealth countries will know before he does, because of fear of leaks, and the powers that be will wait for him to contact them about funeral attendance and will not chase/organise for him. If HMTQ ever falls ill and is in danger of passing, it will not be made public until her passing, to avoid "unseemly" ( yes that is verbatim ) publicity from "California" ( verbatim ), ( same goes for Charles coronation ) If accurate and not the beer talking ( this person has never uttered a word before ) , It is so sad it has come to this........... ( note - i have protected gender and timescales to avoid outing source - I proofread this about 15 times! - edited so much that I hope it makes sense )
If I were in RF I'd make formal statement about HMQ dying/ill etc the second I'm putting the phone down from Caifornia, to allow for no time for leaks or statements from over the pond.
Keep going down the pub with your lovely friend please x
