What happened to Meghan's celebrity friends?*With Love, Meghan*, reportedly struggled to attract the A-list star power many expected, leading to a somewhat underwhelming reception for the Duchess of Sussex's foray into the world of cookery programming. Despite her well-documented connections to high-profile figures such as Oprah Winfrey and Serena Williams, neither appeared on the show. Instead, the series, filmed at a farmhouse near the Sussexes' Montecito residence, features a lineup consisting largely of close friends and lesser-known personalities, including her longtime make-up artist Daniel Martin and former *Suits* co-star Abigail Spencer. A source speaking to *The Sun* suggested that securing guests had been a challenge. “They struggled to book guests. They had a real hard time, and it shows,” the source claimed.

The debut of *With Love, Meghan* on Netflix has sparked an avalanche of commentary, with critics offering a less-than-glowing reception to the Duchess of Sussex's latest venture. While some see it as an earnest attempt at a new chapter, others have dismissed it as “gormless lifestyle filler,” with *The Guardian's* Stuart Heritage going so far as to suggest, "It might be the Sussexes' last TV show."That's one of the better reviews.Unlock an ad-free podcast experience with Caloroga Shark Media!

Armed Forces Invictus Centre, Abuja, Nigeria As the Duke of Sussex, 40, prepares to head to Vancouver, British Columbia, for the next Invictus Games, one of the newer nations to join the Paralympic-style contest for wounded, injured and sick veterans and armed services members has taken the next step forward. Ground has been broken at Nigeria's new rehabilitation building for wounded service members, called the Armed Forces Invictus Centre. Kick-off for the construction of the venue in Abuja began in January 2025. King Charles & Prince William Throw Tantrums While Yes Ma'am: The Secret Life of Royal Servants kinda goes in on everyone, author Tom Quinn (in an excerpt from The Times) said that King Charles and Prince William are "prone to tantrums if things are not done to their liking." He also spoke to a former staff member who said, “They both get irritated very quickly. They are very picky. It comes naturally to them.” Kate Middleton Treats William Like a Fourth Child One former staff member claims (in an excerpt from The Times) that William's prone to tantrums if things don't go according to plan, adding that Kate treats her husband like a child: “I don't know where William would be without Kate — she hasn't had everything done for her throughout her life, so she calms him down when he gets a bit fractious. She said he sometimes has to be treated as her fourth child.” Prince Andrew New Court Filings Prince Andrew has been hit by a double blow after two new court filings heaped further pressure on his relationship with King Charles III. The first appeared to show him telling Jeffrey Epstein "we'll play some more soon!!!!" in an email sent after he claims to have cut ties with the New York financier. And in the second it emerged Prince Andrew was hoping to raise billions of dollars in China in part using his relationship with Yang Tengbo, who British intelligence officers now believe is a Chinese spy. __________________________________________________________ Sources: People | Prince Harry Celebrates Another Key Step in His Invictus Games Journey: https://people.com/prince-harry-celebrates-invictus-games-center-nigeria-exclusive-8786296 Cosmopolitan | Prince William, King Charles Have Tantrums: https://www.cosmopolitan.com/entertainment/celebs/a63686751/prince-william-king-charles-tantrums/ Cosmopolitan | Kate Middleton Treats Prince William Like a Fourth Child: https://www.cosmopolitan.com/entertainment/celebs/a63686858/kate-middleton-treats-prince-william-like-fourth-child/ Newsweek | Prince Andrew's New PR Car Crash is a Headache for King Charles: https://www.newsweek.com/prince-andrew-pr-car-crash-king-charles-2025041

Netflix is raising their rates... AGAIN, and people are somehow blaming Meghan and Harry despite Netflix signing SEVERAL multi-million dollar contracts for many years prior to signing their contract with the Sussexes. Let's dissect the ridiculousness. The Ethiopian government will reportedly be demanding that King Charles return "immoral" artifacts that have been kept in Britain since the 1868 Battle of Magdala. Per a report published by The Telegraph on Friday, Jan. 24, officials in Ethiopia's capital of Addis Ababa will be pushing for the return of items from the Royal Collection as well as treasures kept elsewhere in the United Kingdom, such as the British Museum. The items kept by the King are sacred to the Ethiopian Orthodox Tewahedo Church, per the outlet, which also notes that the government in the United Kingdom will be asked to support Ethiopia's push for the items' return next year. The Ethiopian Heritage Authority will lead the move for the return of the items alongside the Ethiopian Orthodox Church, according to The Telegraph. EXCLUSIVE: The memoir of a choreography teacher who secretly taught Princess Diana to dance is to be turned into a 90-minute feature documentary. Canadian producer-distributor Sphere Media has secured rights to Anne Allan's ‘Dancing with Diana: A Memoir‘ and will co-produce it with Alan Clements' Glasgow-based Two Rivers Media. Sphere Abacus, the sales arm of Sphere, will shop the doc internationally. It's early days for the project so no network or streamer is attached yet. Scottish-Canadian dancer and London City Ballet mistress Allan was the late Princess Diana's dance teacher, and co-choreographed her ‘Uptown Girl' routine at London's Royal Opera House, which she surprised Prince Charles with in 1985. Allan's memoir, which recounts the performance, was released last year.

The Duke of Sussex has reached a shock legal settlement of at least £10 million with the publisher of The Sun, despite having previously vowed to go to court.News Group Newspapers issued an apology, admitting to “serious intrusion" into the Prince's private life and "incidents of unlawful activities" by private investigators working for The Sun. But is this the end of Harry's fight with the press?As a royal editor for 13 years and still closely connected to royal circles, Camilla gives her take on the settlement; where Prince Harry lost the public's support in his campaign against the tabloids; and what it was like to report on the Sussexes.Producers: Lilian Fawcett and Georgia CoanPlanning Editor: Venetia RaineyExecutive Producer: Louisa WellsSocial Media Producer: Rachel DuffyVideo Editor: Andy MackenzieStudio Operator: Meghan SearleEditor: Camilla TomineyOriginal music by Goss Studio Hosted on Acast.

Prince Harry will get his long-awaited day in court against Rupert Murdoch's British tabloids on Monday, as his lawsuit against News Group Newspapers for unlawful gathering of private information finally goes on trial in London. Harry is one of only two plaintiffs left from an original group of about 40; the rest, including the actor Hugh Grant, have settled with News Group. The other plaintiff, who is also scheduled to take the stand, is Tom Watson, a former deputy leader of the Labour Party, who alleges that News Group hacked his phone and targeted him for political reasons. Vanity Fair's latest article about Prince Harry and Meghan Markle follows a familiar pattern from the British tabloid playbook. As Harry's court case against Rupert Murdoch's News Group Newspapers over unlawful practices gains traction, articles like Vanity Fair's conveniently surface to distract and discredit. Instead of acknowledging the Sussexes' positive impact, like Meghan's community work or Harry's advocacy for veterans, Vanity Fair recycles baseless claims. This isn't a coincidence. The timing aligns with a strategy to undermine Harry's fight for media accountability while overshadowing the Sussexes' accomplishments. By dissecting the motives and tactics behind that article, we can expose how it serves as a distraction from the media's unethical behavior and a weapon in a larger smear campaign. Watching Meghan's many critics rage-post about fairly standard elements — like the show reportedly being filmed in a rented property not far from the Sussexes' actual home — it's clear that most of them were always going to hate the show. But this rebrand as the duchess of domesticity is a very shrewd move for Meghan nonetheless. The show's concept appears to combine the fantasy of Meghan as a princess in exile while reactivating parts of her pre-royal public persona, when she ran her own lifestyle website, The Tig. With so many eyes on Meghan, she might finally be allowed to change — and more crucially, sell a different narrative about herself.

In the wake of that scandal they've desperately tried to divert attention away from their shady business, but their ploys only serve to highlight how sinister they really are. Prince William continues with his earthshot charade despite his and Charles' duchies making a fortune off of businesses and projects that worsen climate change... not help it. He has also made grand statements declaring his intent to end homelessness, only to find out his and Charles' duchies not only charge their patronages rent, but often times at market rate... and even ABOVE market rate. Couple that with the fact that several of their residential properties rate F and G on a standard rating scale (with A being the best). They're PR rehab only spotlights how they are contributing far more to the problems they pretend to care about resolving. It also appears William used Earthshot to stake his claim in Africa, as he has been known to be quite territorial over his presence their in an attempt to best his far more credible and philanthropic brother, Prince Harry. But Willy also seems to be using his latest trip to get closer to Heidi Klum, as his office personally asked her to attend his trip, all news coverage has involved her and him equally promoting the organization and attending events (including a barbecue on the beach), his wife isn't in attendance, and after all that Heidi admitted she didn't exactly know what Earthshot was. Is playboy willy looking to replace Rose Hanbury as his alleged mistress? While Kate was left behind while William globetrots, he's still using the fake "family man" image to further his one-sided competition with his brother, even copying his nickname. When it was revealed in 2020 that Prince Archie calls Prince Harry, "Papa", confirmed by a monogrammed leather folder he carried around New York on official business, now 4 years later William is sporting a bracelet allegedly given to him by Charlotte with the same name. Prince William has never been known to wear bracelets, let alone handmade bracelets like Prince Harry who's spoken about how each of his bracelets have a deep meaning, but William has also never been known to be called Papa... until now. CopyKate and Workshy WIlly are equally yoked. The ploys didn't work, as William was met with protests throughout his trip. After squaddies put up a wall of defense around the Sussexes, Charles, Camilla & Co have used to media to aim at William and Andrew. With Charles now claiming he is severing financial ties with Andrew over his friend with Epstein. Meanwhile Charles was friends with Jimmy Savile and Peter Ball.... even after their crimes were publicized. So his seperation from Andrew isn't related to Epstein, it's just another way to hoard wealth. Lastly, the #WhereIsKate conspiracy theories were blamed globally on Squaddies. Now the Sussex Squad definitely asked questions about the royal family's strange behavior at the top of 2024, and Kate's fake photoshopped pictures didn't help, but the actual crux of the conspiracies are now being revealed as a vast online network tied to UK Government Sanctions for Russian Disinformation. Kate NEVER HAD CANCER... she had precancerous cells according to her husband. Precancerous cells doesn't mean you have or will get cancer. it simply means a person has an increased risk of cancer, which should serve as a reminder for them to stay current with medical screenings. ________________________________________ Contact Me: Call: (305) 699-5548 Email: HelloSharion@Gmail.com Creator Collab Sheet: https://forms.gle/WMhmSQy4vJfs95X39 Brand Collab Sheet: https://forms.gle/CuWmKLUrx86xwyNV6 Hashtags #HarryandMeghan #PrinceHarry #PrincessMeghan #DuchessMeghan #MeghanMarkle #RoyalFamily #SussexSquad #SharionSade #brf #InvictusGamesFoundation #InvictusGames #IGF #IAM #IAmInvictus #InvictusGamesVancouverWhistler2025 #InvictusGamesVancouverWhistler #WeAreInvictus Sources Deadline | https://deadline.com/2024/11/king-charles-cuts-prince-andrew-cash-backlash-over-jeffrey-epstein-friendship-1236165275/ The Guardian | https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2022/apr/06/prince-charles-repeatedly-sought-jimmy-savile-advice-documentary-claims The New York Times | https://www.nytimes.com/2019/05/10/world/europe/prince-charles-peter-ball.html The New York Post | https://www.yahoo.com/entertainment/prince-andrew-38m-mansion-falling-195109468.html Heidi Klum Doesn't Know Much About Earthshot...

Today could be a monumental day in the saga of Harry and Meghan.With Trump and Harry reportedly far from friends, there's speculation that a future President Trump could, in theory, give the Duke of Montecito a one-way ticket out of the U.S. Royal watcher Hugo Vickers weighed in, saying, “I wouldn't be at all surprised if Trump suddenly said, ‘Right, I'm sending Prince Harry out of this country.'” Other royal experts think the Sussexes new Portugal pad is just a vacation spot. Richard Fitzwilliams was quick to point out that Harry and Meghan probably aren't looking to replace their California home base anytime soon. Fitzwilliams also didn't hold back on calling Harry's drug-use revelations in *Spare* “extremely foolish.” As for Trump actually making a scene by ejecting Harry, Fitzwilliams doubts it, saying it's unlikely he'd want to risk a public fiasco with the royal family.Unlock an ad-free podcast experience with Caloroga Shark Media!

Introduction: Minutes 0 to 5:45 Chandra and I both watched The Perfect Couple and loved it! Chandra also loved the fourth season of Emily in Paris. Royals: Minutes (5:45) to 24:15 After our last podcast Kate released a video with her family announcing that she was cancer free. It was self absorbed and the British media criticized her for it. King Charles is said to have disapproved too. It was reportedly Kate's idea, which makes a lot of sense. There were stories after that about how we weren't going to see Kate for a while and how her schedule wasn't going to get back to normal until the spring. We heard that she went to a ballet performance recently and that she's been having private meetings. This week Kate and William helped grant a 16-year-old cancer patient's wish to photograph an investiture ceremony, which was really nice. The Waleses were possibly motivated by Harry's recent press and the comments from Buckingham Palace about Kate's video. Last week Prince Harry was in New York for a series of appearances. He also was on the Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon to tour his haunted house, which was fun. Cameron Walker of GB News tweeted that Harry is a veteran and that he was surprised that he got scared for that reason. Over the weekend Harry dipped in and out of London to attend the WellChild Awards. He didn't see his dad at all. When we recorded Harry was visiting Lesotho and South Africa. While Harry was getting so much positive press in New York, the British press tried to attack the Sussexes on two fronts. One was that Harry and Meghan must be having relationship problems because Meghan wasn't with him on these trips. We heard she was sick maybe she has covid and/or she just wanted to stay home with the kids. Then they dusted off that old chestnut about Meghan being mean and making her staffers cry by asking them to do their jobs and sending them email. It was unhinged and they got some US outlets to run it this time, including The Hollywood Reporter. They got one specific story about Meghan allegedly screaming at a florist in 2018, however the florist for her wedding went on the record to say it was great to work with her. The lack of specifics about what Meghan allegedly did is so telling. The Sussexes pushed back against these lies with an US Weekly cover story including quotes from people who work with them and went on the record. Of course Meghan and Harry are thoughtful, kind bosses. The reaction to the US story was unhinged. We wonder why The Hollywood Reporter parroted British talking points about Meghan circa 2018. William tried doing a bunch of stuff as Harry was getting press. He posed in front of some new London Air Ambulance Charity helicopters with David Beckham and he visited a company called Enso where he changed a tire. This week there was a story that Victoria Beckham doesn't like Meghan, but it seemed manufactured by the press. Prince William tried to poach Chef Jose Andres by putting him on the board of Earthshot, but Andres made it clear that he's still good friends with Harry. William still has that unattractive patchy beard because he wants Harry's style and life. Comments of the Week: Minutes (24:15) to end Kaiser's comment of the week is from sevenblue on the post where Tom Parker Bowles calls Charles “the loveliest man in the world.” Here's a link the photos Chandra mentioned where Camilla is scratching her vag. I remember when Camilla went maskless to a cooking event right after Charles tested positive for covid. My comment of the week is from Pinkosaurus on the post about Olivia Nuzzi filing a complaint with the FBI against her ex-fiance. Thanks for listening bitches!
Although The Royal Family shared birthday wishes for Prince Harry's 40th birthday, they cropped Meghan Markle out of a photograph. The Royal Family's official X (formerly Twitter) account posted: “Wishing The Duke of Sussex a very happy 40th birthday today!” alongside a picture of Harry from a 2018 royal engagement in Dublin, back when the Sussexes were still working Royals. The Prince and Princess of Wales shared the same message and used a photograph from a visit to Dogpatch Labs, a Dublin tech hub, where Harry and Meghan had met with entrepreneurs.However, in the original image, Meghan was seated next to Harry. For the birthday wishes, the photograph was cropped to exclude her, focusing solely on the Duke. Conspiracy minded folks may be disappointed by this fun fact. The Independent reports although Meghan was included in the original image alongside the duke, the cropped version simultaneously appeared on Getty Images alongside the full photograph in 2018.

Introduction: Minutes 0 to 4:15 I watched Thunder Force on Netflix and loved it. Chandra had to subscribe to ESPN+ due to DirectTV's feud with Disney. She is watching In the Arena with Serena Williams. Royals: Minute 4:15 to 21:00 The last time we recorded the Sussexes had arrived in Colombia. They pulled off that trip like professionals and the optics were amazing. Colombia's Vice President Francia Marquez said that Harry and Meghan's visit really highlighted tourism. We heard that it only cost Colombia less than $60,000 to provide security for them. The Sussexes did a great job making photos available to agencies. Emily Andrews let it slip that Buckingham Palace had talking points about this trip. King Charles went to Southport last week to visit the families of children who were murdered in a knife attack. Charles has been staying in Scotland at his smaller home, Birkhall, while other members of the family stay at Balmoral. Kate was seen headed to church there on August 25th. There was a story in GB News that Zara and Mike Tindall were being asked to relieve Prince William and Princess Kate. There's an undercurrent that William and Kate are incapable of doing their jobs. Prince Harry made a secret visit to the UK last week to go to his uncle Robert Fellowes' funeral. Harry stayed at Althorp with the Earl Spencer. You could tell that the Windsors were super mad they didn't know about Harry's visit ahead of time. The Windsors are mad at how much the Spencers support Harry. There's been a narrative in the British press that Harry wants to come back to the UK to do royal work. It's clearly coming from William's side. This narrative has been pushed by William for years. Chandra thinks this storyline is an attempt to distract from what's going on with Kate. Toward the end of this month Prince Harry is going to be in New York solo for UN climate week. He's going to speak at the Clinton Global Initiative. Prince William will not be going to NY on behalf of Earthshot despite pathetically trying to copykeen Harry's trip last year. We wonder why William and Kate didn't do any events during the Sussexes' trip. Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie: Minutes 21:00 to 31:30 This week both Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt premiered their movies at the Venice Film Festival. Angelina is starring as opera star Maria Callas in the biopic Maria. She is getting Oscar buzz for that and it's coming out on Netflix. Braad is starring with George Clooney in the Apple streaming movie Wolfs. It was supposed to come out in theaters but that's not happening. Brad Pitt made his red carpet debut with Ines de Ramon. Brad and Angelina are covering People Magazine this week with the title “Brad and Angelina, their 8 year divorce, Can they Finally Move On,” as if Brad's legal battle against Angelina is mutual. The whole narrative comes from Brad and it's the same garbage we've seen from him for years as he uses legal means to continue to try and punish Angelina for leaving him after he abused her and their children. Brad Pitt looks pulled and puffy recently. There's been a shift in public perception about Brad Pitt, especially since Shiloh changed her last name. Comments of the week: Minutes 31:30 to end Chandra's comment of the week is from It Really Is You, Not Me on the post about Justin Theroux's engagement. My comments of the week are from HeatherC and Indica on Rosie's post about Oasis potentially adding US dates to their tour. Thanks for listening bitches!
According to a source quoted by Closer UK, the Sussexes had been “rejected” by Kris Jenner, a decision possibly influenced by the declining public opinion of the couple. The source suggested that Meghan, who initially had reservations about working with the Kardashians, was “humiliated” by the snub, especially after she had come around to the idea of collaborating with the famous family.The source elaborated, saying, “No doubt they [Harry and Meghan] felt they were lowering their standards a little by associating with the Kardashians, so to end up being rejected by them is a pretty big blow.” The rejection is seen as particularly damaging given that Meghan had begun to warm up to the potential partnership and was reportedly excited about the prospect.Unlock an ad-free podcast experience with Caloroga Shark Media!

Is the Faux Royal Tour just another attempt to create “content?”The Express reported on an eye-witness claiming “[the Sussexes] have made sure that they have their own photographer present so that the images sent out are carefully selected," "There is also a videographer capturing key moments so that videos can be sent out to the press, but there's also another camera crew filming their every move."PR Expert Eric Schiffer told Newsweek "No one's going to care in the United States. "This is a snooze fest in the United States, and frankly it looks like a continued piece of evidence in the kind of whiny activities that the two do.Unlock an ad-free podcast experience with Caloroga Shark Media!

Introduction: Minutes 0 to 7:15 We recorded on Friday this week instead of Thursday as usual. We both loved the Olympics and talk about our favorite events and athletes. Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni: Minutes 7:15 to 18:45 Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni are costarring in the film This Ends with Us. The book is by Colleen Hoover and it's been criticized as romanticizing domestic abuse. I've read that the movie does the same thing. Justin Baldoni is directing the film, he bought the rights and hired a screenwriter. People noticed that he skipped the London premiere and that he hasn't posed with Blake Lively or done press with her. They also noticed that Blake and the author Colleen Hoove unfollowed Justin on Instagram. The Hollywood Reporter said that Lively and Baldoni's feud started in post-production, when Blake commissioned a separate edit of the film. Chandra thinks that Justin's edit is likely the one that made it to theaters. Blake's husband Ryan Reynolds also rewrote a key scene. THR next reported that Blake screened her own edit of the film at a book event for Colleen Hoover in June. It looks like she tried to take creative control of the film. At first we got vague stories that Baldoni created a difficult work environment. The stories about why people hate him were suspicious to me. He also is said to have made Blake feel bad about her postpartum body. Baldoni has hired the same PR crisis management firm that Johnny D-pp and Brad Pitt use. TMZ then reported that Blake felt uncomfortable around Justin because he kissed her too long in a scene and because he asked her trainer how much she weighed since he had to pick her up and has a bad back. An older interview from 2016 recently came out where Blake and Parker Posey were meangirling a Norwegian interviewer, ignoring her and talking to each other instead. This is how Blake has always been. Blake has been promoting the movie like it's a frothy romance and Justin is being serious and measured in his promotion. His production company has partnered with an anti domestic violence foundation and he has been talking about ending the cycle of abuse. Royals: Minutes 18:45 to 25:15 None of the major royals went to the Olympics in Paris. Will and Kate just recorded a brief video congratulations with celebrities afterwards. They didn't congratulate any of the individual athletes. The Daily Mail recently reported that Kate is still undergoing preventative chemotherapy, that she's still recovering and that we probably won't see her until Remembrance Day. This is the type of story we get about Kate every six months. Earlier this month the Sussexes gave an interview to CBS Sunday Morning on behalf of their new initiative through Archewell called The Parents Network, to provide support and resources for parents to protect their children from online harm. They included parents who had lost children to online bullying and to drugs purchased online. It's a great cause. Meghan was asked about her past suicidal ideation, which she opened up about during her interview with Oprah. I play a segment from their CBS Sunday Morning interview. Harry and Meghan have been working on this cause for some time. A couple of weeks ago it was reported that the Sussexes have accepted an invitation to visit Colombia. We didn't realize it would happen so soon. Harry and Meghan are in Colombia now and the photos and videos coming out are incredible. They're so warm and natural with people. They have been meeting with the Vice President Francia Marquez, they went to a theater performance and participated in a panel about Internet safety. Marquez saw their Netflix series and that's why she wanted to meet Meghan! Politics: Minutes 25:15 to 33:30 While we were off, Kamala Harris chose Minnesota governor Tim Walz as her running mate. Chandra thinks that Harris has a soft spot for dorky white men. We loved Harris and Walz's joint video interview. We hope she does more cooking videos. We want Harris to go on Hot Ones. Trump has been having a meltdown over Harris. He called her beautiful in that lispy interview with Elon Musk and may be conflicted about her for that reason. He hates being called weird. The Kamala HQ coms department does such a great job. Comments of the Week: Minutes 33:30 to end Chandra's comment of the week is from Agnes on the post about Brad Pitt and George Clooney covering GQ magazine. My comment of the week is from Beana on the post about Mark Zuckerberg commissioning a seven foot statue of his wife, Priscilla Chan. Thanks for listening bitches!
We're exploring a completely new era this week, so buckle up your sword belts, pour yourself a jug of mead and grab that armour! Phil's guest today is Steve Tibble, author of a brand new book on the dark (and VERY dark) side of the Crusades, which he describes as being like a two hundred year pub fight! Steve is a great storyteller and his book is full of incredible insights into a time few of us know much about. Before that Phil reports on the latest news from Montecito. As Harry pursues his own crusade against the British press, Meghan has been talking some more about her mental health problems and - maybe - dropping a few hints that she'd rather Harry move on from his legal battles back in the UK. Phil has always been more sympathetic to the Sussexes than Andrew - and most of our audience it seems. Is it time, he asks, for a bit more of our sympathy to go Meghan's way?You can buy Steve's book - and thousands more - here...https://www.amazon.co.uk/Crusader-Criminals-Knights-Went-Rogue/dp/0300276079***We now have a Thank You button (next to the 'three dots') for small donations that help support our work***Looking for the perfect gift for a special scandalous someone - or someone you'd like to get scandalous with?

According to royal commentator Gareth Russell, Meghan is reportedly planning a "tactical rethink" following the end of her and Prince Harry's Spotify deal, which has been described as a source of embarrassment for the couple. Their multimillion-dollar agreement with Spotify was reportedly terminated last year due to the Sussexes' failure to meet productivity benchmarks. After the Spotify setback, Meghan announced a new partnership with Lemonada Media in February. However, this new project has been postponed until at least 2025 as Meghan shifts her focus to launching her ldog biiscuits and jam brand, American Riviera Orchard.Unlock an ad-free podcast experience with Caloroga Shark Media!

According to the Daily Express,Kate Middleton is considering a trip to Paris next week with her husband to attend some Olympic competitions. Princess Anne and her husband, Sir Timothy Laurence, are currently representing the British Royal Family at the event. Princess Anne, a former Olympian and member of the International Olympic Committee, also serves as the President of the British Olympic Association.A source close to Catherine told the Daily Express, “The Princess would love to go to the Olympics. She has such fond memories of London 2012 and is keen to go to another Games while it's so close to home.”Meanwhile, as semi-experts in Royal Watching, we'll think the chances just greatly increased as the Waleses and the Sussexes fight for tabloid space.Prince Harry and Duchess Meghan are preparing for their next international venture, announcing plans for a trip to Colombia from August 15 to 18. This will be their first joint visit to the South American nation, where their focus will be on supporting mental health activism and promoting safer online environments for young people.The couple was invited by Colombia's Vice President Francia Márquez, who outlined their itinerary in a statement. "During their trip, The Duke and Duchess will join me in visiting Bogotá, as well as the Caribbean and Pacific regions of Cartagena and Cali,” Márquez said. “In these vibrant locations, they will have the exceptional opportunity to engage with leaders, youth, and women who embody the aspirations and voices of Colombians committed to progress. In addition to these meaningful interactions, The Duke and Duchess will experience the rich heritage of Colombia.”This visit to Colombia marks the Sussexes's third joint international trip this year, following their previous trips to Canada in February and Nigeria in May.

Introduction: Minutes to 6:15 I loved the Fall Guy and am on the second season of AMC's Interview with the Vampire. Chandra enjoyed Challengers. Royals: Minutes 6:15 to 21:30 We've talked for years about this common narrative from the British Press where they'll come up with something the Sussexes need to attend and cover it endlessly. They've done this with Hugh Grosvenor's wedding since the invitations went out in December. Roya Nikkhah, a journalist who regularly gets exclusives from William, reported in The Times that Harry and Meghan weren't invited, which was not true. Then we heard that Harry was invited, but he declined. Chandra thinks that story was pushback from Hugh and Harry to William's narrative. They tried to spin it like Harry declined because William is going to be an usher and Harry is jealous or something. People magazine reported that Harry and Hugh talked on the phone and realized that it would be best if Harry didn't come. We haven't seen Kate since Christmas apart from her video announcement. We've heard Kate is not likely to be at Trooping the Colour on June 15th. She's also not expected to attend any events around the state visit from the Emperor and Empress of Japan on June 25th to 27th. William was asked about Kate this week by a WWII veteran during events ahead of D-Day. William said she's getting better. Just last week People and US claimed that Kate was seen out running errands including making a trip to a chocolate shop with William. This is very bizarre messaging. It seems like Buckingham Palace and Kensington Palace are not on the same page. Much of the narrative is to protect William. Kate is covering US Magazine, and the article is getting a lot of attention on social media because of the quote that “she may never come back in the role that people saw her in before.” Richard Eden in the Daily Mail said a couple of weeks ago that Kate might not be seen until autumn and then Tom Sykes in the Daily Beast reported from sources that she won't be back until next year. It feels like a different narrative keeps taking over and being taken back. Shiloh Jolie: Minutes 21:30 to 26:15 Shiloh Jolie, who is now 18, filed to have Pitt officially dropped as her last legal name. She hired her own lawyer and filed the paperwork herself. We've previously heard that Vivienne, who turns 16 next month, is only using Jolie as her last name, and that Zahara is only using Jolie as her last name in college. Brad Pitt and his children have been estranged for years since he abused and terrorized them on an airplane in 2016. A source told People that Brad Pitt is “aware and upset that Shiloh dropped his last name. He's never felt more joy than when she was born. He always wanted a daughter.” Brad and Angelina already had daughter Zahara for a year when Shiloh was born. All of Brad's statements to outlets about this have been self-centered and lack any remorse or responsibility. We hope the public sees him for who he is soon. Comments of the Week: Minutes 26:15 to end Chandra's comment of the week is from Miranda on the post about Trump getting convicted finally. My comment of the week is from Jennifer on the post about Jennifer Lopez canceling her tour. Thanks for listening bitches!
