Harry & Meghan #61 A Blight at the Oprah !


Latest news from Harkleland is that Harry and Meghan have graciously decided to quit run away step down step back from the taxing duties of royal life for the sake of their mental health, whilst maintaining the Queen’s values from their mansion in Montecito. Or so they tell us daily in at least a dozen press releases.

Meanwhile, Harry has been finding privacy with unassuming shy guy James Corden on top of a double-decker bus in Hollywood, accidentally ending up all over CBS Late Late Show, Instagram and YouTube invading his family privacy by revealing all about chats with the Royal Grandparents, and his unusual fixation with waffles and crocodiles. A search party has been sent out to find the missing second episode of the Archewell Spotify Cringecast.

The phoney bidding war to screen Oprah & the Harkles on March 8th hots up. No-one in the UK has actually bought the rights yet but don’t worry guys, Discovery Channel are in the final round against ITV. BBC, Netflix, Amazon, Channel 4 and Sky said 'Nah, we're good thanks'.

We await the outcome of the costs hearing in THE DUCHESS v ANL, due on March 2nd in the wise hands and savage pen of Lord Justice Warby.

Well done @cosmo girl for thread title and thanks @Baguette for the new thread. So where do the Netflix employees go to from the Oprah interview? Obviously the Netflix content that we’ve been promised but what else?

Thanks for new thread Baguette and Cosmo girl.

Harkles say they want to control their privacy and that's why they hate the nasty press. What they really mean is they dont want any criticism or anything negative.

I really hope Warby is tougher with her than the last case. He surely has to be "surprised" or "miffed" that he fell for her intensive privacy crap then 2 days later...... well we all know

So far, what the Harkles are actually planning to deliver for Netflix is a mystery. They floated some ideas about their first year in the USA, a documentary about Black Lives Matter and some worthy cartoon series but nothing has been heard for months. Although Harry mentioned them so many times in the James Corden chat, it looks like there is something coming.

Is it wrong of me to hope that ITV pull out and leave the Discovery Channel to air the Oprah interview? Maybe in between Season 7 of Bitchin' Rides and Deadliest Catch would fit nicely?

Obviously the birth of the second sproglet will buy some time for output as Megs will take maternity leave but I just can’t see what else they could possibly plan to do. Once the interview is out of the way, it just seems to me that they will be waiting for the offers to come in.

Think they will be waiting a long time 😂

"Tourre Bakahai on Twitter: "James Cordon: "OK, so I've got an exclusive interview with someone being projected as one of the highest paid showbiz stars in the world." Result: Rehearsed conversation fizzles out after a few minutes & they end up on an assault course straight out of low-budget kids' TV." / Twitter"

Prince Harry and Meghan hunt for new UK mail address as Clarence House severs ties

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex face a scramble to make arrangements for their correspondence after decision not to return as working royals
www.telegraph.co.uk www.telegraph.co.uk


The joy of receiving a note from a member of the Royal Family, in response to a card or a letter, has long been keenly felt by well wishers from across the globe.

But the Duke and Duchess of Sussex now face a scramble to make new arrangements for their correspondence after the Prince of Wales withdrew his financial support for the mail service provided by his team at Clarence House.

The couple’s decision not to return to the royal fold as working members of the family means that all professional ties will be severed from the end of next month.

For practical reasons, that will include arrangements relating to their mail, the Sunday Telegraph understands, meaning that well wishers might have to start posting their cards to the US instead

The Correspondence Section at Clarence House, comprising around four members of staff, has traditionally handled the Sussexes’ mail, as well as that of the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, Prince Charles and the Duchess of Cornwall.

Thousands of letters and cards are received each month for each member of the family, all of which are carefully sifted and organised, with the majority generating polite replies on monogrammed paper, franked from Buckingham Palace.

While the Prince of Wales receives the most post, the volume of letters trickling in for the Sussexes is thought to have dwindled since they moved abroad.

But sackfuls are still received, with notable spikes around birthdays, Christmas or significant announcements.

The process is funded by the Prince privately, and while not a significant cost, still amounts to tens of thousands a year, comprising staff costs, overheads, stationary and stamps.

One issue understood to be behind the decision as well as that the royal office would also have no prior knowledge of events, campaigns or announcements made by the Sussexes that might prompt a sudden spike in mail.

A source close to the Sussexes said their new arrangements had yet to be determined, but pointed out that there was a Los Angeles address for the couple’s Archewell Foundation on their website.

However, they will have to move quickly to deal with the expected deluge of congratulatory messages when the Duchess gives birth to their second child in early summer.

The couple’s highly anticipated interview with Oprah Winfrey, to be broadcast in the US next Sunday evening, will also generate a significant response.
The 90-minute special, understood to have been recorded over two days at their Santa Barbara home earlier this month, will almost certainly ruffle feathers as they discuss their decision to quit as working royals.
An aide said audiences could expect the couple to expand on issues raised by the Duke in his interview with James Corden, broadcast last week, in which he discussed everything from his son’s first word - crocodile - to the “toxic” British media that had been destroying his mental health.
Gayle King, a friend of Ms Winfrey and a CBS anchor, claimed the chat show queen had told her the interview was “'the best she has ever done.”

It's so quintessentially British.

The Prince of Wales shows his extreme displeasure at his wayward younger son by the ultimate sanction: withdrawing the use of his Correspondence Section.

Savage.
