Welcome to The Aristo Pod! My name is Vanessa, join me for a lighthearted chat of the developments involving members of the British Royal Family. Expect a fun conversation on everything going on within the institution, delving into topics like PR, politics, fashion, and just an overall appreciation of what the British Royal Family does at home and abroad. This is not investigative journalism but merely commentary. Always head to the palace for the most up-to-date, unbiased, and confirmed information. You can also find me at TheAristoPod.tumblr.com.
As 2021 comes to an end, the bible of modern royal fashion has released its annual tally of the wardrobe costs of several royal women… and HRH The Duchess of Cambridge is first, with a wardrobe worth €100,000. Join us as we discuss prices of bespoke clothing, the tally, the impact it can have on Catherine's popularity, and whether it's an issue or not that royal women wear such expensive clothes during a pandemic.
The Duchess of Sussex is suing Associated Newspapers over the publication of a letter she wrote to her father, but her defence... lacks a bit of coherence and tends to contradict itself. Join us on this first part as we discuss the claims made against the Kensington Palace Communications Teams and why their response to the negative articles Meghan faced were appropriate and in line to what they'd previously done.
What is the British Royal Family during lockdown? How is the family dealing with the distanced events? What's up with Charles and William's relationship? Will Harry and Meghan return? Join us as we answer all these questions and more!
William and Catherine have just returned to the U.K. following a three day visit to the Republic of Ireland, the first by members of the Royal Family since Britain's departure of the EU. Join us as we go through the importance of the visit, the events, the fashion, and how the couple has opened up and become more comfortable in their roles—and how they couldn't keep their eyes off each other whilst doing so!
On the first episode of The Aristo Pod we will go through Harry and Meghan's latest statement outlining several points agreed after discussions with the Royal Family on their new roles. Join us as we discuss their plans, why the tone of the statement has ruffled some feathers, and how this can possibly affect their work going forward.
