It's a beautiful photo. Very genuine expressions on both of their faces. It's one of my favourite photos of any of the RF. It's a bittersweet image now.This photo really stood out to me while I was skimming through the various news articles shared in this thread earlier today.
Isn‘t it a lovely, sweet picture? The Queen is genuinely smiling broadly and Hazza is trying his best to stifle a laugh. It really touched me and made me feel very sad for what both he and the RF have potentially lost. There is genuine affection there between a grandma and grandson. What a bloody shame eh? He has been a fool, a complete and utter fool.
I hope she cuts ties before 7th march.Hoping that Prince Philip pulls through.
(Hi not new to Tattle, but just found you (this forum). I'm a total anti - Harry and Meghan person. Hoping the Queen will cut ties with them on March 31st. Also, I was gobsmacked with Meghan's court win. I hope that will be rectified!)
He's as thick as pigshit, though. He's been afforded all manner of support, financial, emotional. Threw it all back in Granny's face.This photo really stood out to me while I was skimming through the various news articles shared in this thread earlier today.

The only thing I remembered was there being a to-do about the newsreader's tie colour so I looked it up and the broadcast is on youtube here.They can't well say 'this is it, lads, he's not got long left'. Hence the usual platitudes.
I can't remember much about the Queen Mother passing away, which is the last comparable death, so it's hard to say how it was reported. 24 hour news channels existed then, but all I remember was a BBC Newsflash saying she had died, can't even recall much of a build up.
I wish TQ could change their titles to, say, the Count and Countess of Sussex. That way when they get introduced, folks could accidentally (sorry -- not sorry) lean into a mispronunciation of the Cunt and Cuntess of .... As it is now, they are avoid French-speaking countries as she would be pronounced "La Douchesse" which hopefully is how she was introduced in Morocco.I hope she cuts ties before 7th march.
Then there will be no active link to the RF and they can't have their interview introduced as the DandDoS.
Thing is, HMTQM was fairly well liked. She was seen as quite a benign figure who did OK during the war, liked a drink and a flutter on the horses. She'd also seen off Wallis Simpson, who older people fucking hated. I remember my Granny had a real visceral hatred of WS.I'm new to this thread, only on thread #2 but wanted to see what everyone was saying about Philip. Even though I've never liked Harry, I couldn't stand Meghan as soon as she turned up (she reminds me of my sister who is a severe narcissist so Meghan set off multiple major red flags for me and I've been so confused why everyone seems to love her so I'm pleased I've found like-minded people here.)
I do hope Phillip pulls through, if only so that when he does die, the Queen can be at his side rather than have him shut away from her in hospital. I wonder if he does die and the Oprah interview goes ahead if they'll mention his old quotes in a "the old racist royal family ways are dying off, look at the new type of royal family" sort of way.
The only thing I remembered was there being a to-do about the newsreader's tie colour so I looked it up and the broadcast is on youtube here.
Also found an article from Peter Sissons explaining about the broadcast and how it had been previously planned for wall-to-wall coverage when she died but the head changed it after 9/11 because they thought it would be insensitive to give her death the same amount of airtime.
Oprah still has a lot of influence and a lot of friends here. I wouldn't go out of my way to piss her off.
John Humphrys also with baby bump in inverted commas! Second journalist who has written a piece for the Daily Mail that has done so!
I dont think her being American matters at all.......I don't think it's anything to do with being American. For me its totally about her behaviour and it started with those stupid bananas before it was even confirmed they were a couple. The blatant dropping hints here there and everywhere and then Haza firing off at the press to stop hounding her and to leave her alone and yet there was nothing in the press about her at all only the staged photos she had set up.
Zara's facial expressions said it all!.... and the style of the preacher at her wedding, was 'unusual' for British viewers, because he gushed so much and didnt stop talking!
Yes I noticed that too! The gloves are off.John Humphrys also with baby bump in inverted commas! Second journalist who has written a piece for the Daily Mail that has done so!
The journos just don’t give a flying fuck anymore! He would be a good interviewer but as much as I don’t agree with him at times, Piers Morgan would also be quite fun!!Yes I noticed that too! The gloves are off.
Shame it isn't him interviewing them, he'd be great
I expect we'll see loads more of this, as its very difficult to sue in the UK for opinion pieces - there's a defence of 'are these views a reasonable person could have held?'. No one wants to head to court to have the judge find that the reasonable person might well think that you are a useless cunt.Yes I noticed that too! The gloves are off.

I'd prefer John, Piers is too hectoring for me. He does my head in.The journos just don’t give a flying fuck anymore! He would be a good interviewer but as much as I don’t agree with him at times, Piers Morgan would also be quite fun!!
Good point actually! Put them on Jerry Springer and bring out the RF and Thomas Markle one at a time as a kind of intervention for Hazza. Let Brenda come out and rip him a new one accompanied by her Corgis. That’s your Netflix contract fulfilled right there!I'd prefer John, Piers is too hectoring for me. He does my head in.
