princess 1,712 Report post Posted October 21, 2020 ENTERTAINMENT LAWYER 10/20 **5** The alliterate one is desperately trying to testify virtually in her upcoming trial. She doesn't want to travel and she doesn't want to have to deal with the crowds of press. If she does have to be present for the trial, she wants a waiver of the 14 day quarantine period so she doesn't have to spend Christmas with the in-laws. The month of January is going to test the limits of the marriage. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hoyaheel 1,874 Report post Posted October 24, 2020 New book about Prince Philip excerpt https://www.townandcountrymag.com/society/money-and-power/a34346906/prince-philip-revealed-book-excerpt-andrew-harry/ Here they don't say anything about Harry's personal military rank being removed, just his Royal patronage rank. Did we discuss that here or was it on Twitter someone told me? I get confused 😉 t was decided that Harry, who holds the rank of major in the army, would lose his position as Captain General of the Royal Marines, but the title would remain in obeyance with no one else being appointed in his place until April 2021, when there is an agreed review of the situation.

I don’t remember discussing it here but it might have been! I also don’t see how they can take away a rank he earned through actually serving in the armed forces? I thought all that was going was the stuff awarded by virtue of being part of the RF. 🤷🏻♀️ 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wordsworth 703 Report post Posted October 29, 2020 Is it wrong that I read this about the delay to autumn 2021 “The judge said the trial, due to be held in January 2021, was adjourned for "confidential" reasons after a request by Meghan's lawyers.” and immediately assumed Meghan is pregnant and (understandably) doesn’t want to have to travel and go through this?

Well, everyone seems to be hinting that is the reason. Good catch Wordsorth! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wordsworth 703 Report post Posted October 29, 2020 Wiki suggests the step back was from honorary military appointments, which are the ones mentioned here, and shows his service related rank separately, but I don’t know enough about ranks versus appointments to know what’s going on to be honest! He appears to have been promoted in rank even after leaving service, does that make it honorary? 🤷🏻♀️ https://www.marieclaire.com/celebrity/a31987565/prince-harry-devastated-give-up-military-titles/ 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hoyaheel 1,874 Report post Posted November 10, 2020 So I'm finally trying to finish S3 of The Crown so I can be ready for S4 when it comes at the end of the week (next week? soon....) Up to the Prince of Wales investiture, ep 5. I like to read a couple of blogs that analyze the Crown (attempting to tell truth from tv, sometimes). Is this true - Prince of Wales isn't an hereditary title? But created from Letters Patent? I had NO idea. Seriously, 40 years of reading English history (fiction too) and this never came up??? [I got that from this blog, not the tv show, so I'll have to investigate....] https://www.rachaeldickzen.com/blog/2019/11/24/overanalyzing-the-crown-s3e6-tywysog-cymru 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hoyaheel 1,874 Report post Posted November 19, 2020 That article isn't totally accurate. Harry & Meghan's evening reception was at Frogmore. The luncheon reception immediately after the wedding was at St George's Hall....

princess 1,712 Report post Posted November 19, 2020 ENTERTAINMENT LAWYER 11/18 With the new court documents filed, it is looking more and more like the alliterate former actress is going to be writing a very large check to the people she sued. The sooner she can settle, the less she will have to pay. The vast majority of the time, if there is a settlement, the person who sued gets the money. In this case, it will be the opposite, but people just glancing to see she sued and that it was settled, will assume she won. She knows this. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Only 9 years old! I thought it was young too. I assume they’ll get another, I read Kate’s brother has a lot of dogs from the same litter so they’re clearly a dog family. Although my parents lost their last dog at about the same age, she developed stomach issues and they tried everything but in the end it was kinder to let her go.

They definitely did not want to be seen. Emptying their home and handing over the keys is a pretty strong sign Harry and Meghan have no plans to return. It appears they are tying up loose ends as they plan to extend their stay in the U.S. perhaps permanently." Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
