Becoming the next Oprah — a powerful and influential media mogul — does not feel far-fetched at all."

Maybe the next Jerry Springer

@bigheadfred

Other than Springer having had an IQ that was probably double that of Okra,is there an actual difference?

Oprah is D...U....M "dumb". Anyone that has ever heard her  talking without an ear bud in her ear,where she is making her own decisions about what to say can testify to that. The woman actually  tried to film a road trip with  her and her female main squeeze Gail to show they were just "reglar folks,a-drivin ah car cross de cuntry",and when she stopped for gas,couldn't figure out how to do it. Couldn't even find the filler flap.

Meghan Markle’s estranged half-sister predicts separation from Harry: ‘They are at an impasse’

By Jesse O’Neill
May 4, 2023

Meghan Markle’s estranged half-sister thinks the Duchess of Sussex and Prince Harry are on the outs — and alleges her reluctant royal relative is trying to upstage King Charles III’s Saturday coronation.

Samantha Markle, 58, based her breakup claim on Meghan’s apparent rebuke of a kiss-camera smooch from Harry when the pair showed up at a Los Angeles Lakers game last month — spilling the gossip during an interview with GBNews released Tuesday.

“It’s so different and so inconsistent with her character,” Samantha told the outlet. “Previously in all the photographs she was pining over him, putting her hands all over him, grabbing his hands, grabbing his back.

“So what’s up with this? Is this a symbol of separation? This is different. This is seemingly a statement on her part that she’s not all that touchy feely right now.

“It’s kind of sad. It’s telling the rest of the world, all of us, that they are at an impasse and maybe they’re making decisions to part,” said Samantha, who has not had a relationship with Markle, 41, since 2014, according to The Irish Mirror. The two share the same father, Thomas Markle.

Queen Elizabeth publicly called Harry meeting ‘evil’ Meghan a ‘complete catastrophe’: report

By Lee Brown
May 5, 2023

Queen Elizabeth II publicly signaled that she regretted that her grandson Prince Harry met his wife Meghan Markle — calling her “evil” and their courtship a “complete catastrophe,” according to an explosive report.

The longest-serving monarch “saw through Meghan Markle” and made the uncharacteristic remarks at a reception in Balmoral in August, weeks before her death, a source close to the royals told The Spectator.

“At the drinks before the dinner, a small group were talking to the monarch and she explained that Harry meeting Meghan had become a complete catastrophe and described her as evil,” the source claimed.

“Everybody’s eyebrows hit the ceiling,” the source recalled.

“It was out of character for the queen to use such a word as ‘evil’ to describe Meghan, but she saw straight through her.

This woman dealt in her career from Churchill to this wench.  I think over those 75 years she built up a good repitorie of reading people pretty well, and recognized the Farkle Factor pretty quicky.

Meghan and Harry's plan to destroy the British monarchy didn't count on this happening
Meghan and Harry have in effect declared war on the royals, starting with the nasty Oprah interview in 2021

By Nile Gardiner | Fox News

After months of uncertainty, Prince Harry eventually decided to attend the coronation of his father, King Charles III, in Westminster Abbey on May 6. Harry’s wife, Meghan Markle, will not be there, however. The Duchess of Sussex has decided to stay in Montecito, California, while the Duke travels to London.

Harry’s visit across the Atlantic is expected to be brief and takes place amid increasing acrimony with his brother, Prince William, and his wife, the Princess of Wales. Reports in London suggest that many members of the royal family will be keeping their distance from the increasingly toxic Harry, following his salvo of attacks against the royals in his highly controversial memoir, "Spare."

Both Harry and Meghan have become increasingly unpopular in the United Kingdom since the release of "Spare" and their hugely hyped Netflix documentary, which debuted last November. They have, in fact, become two of the most disliked celebrity figures in the U.K. today. Their standing has also taken a major hit stateside, where the satirical show "South Park" delivered a devastating takedown of the royal couple in a recent episode.

Undoubtedly a key reason for Meghan’s decision not to attend the coronation was fear of being booed on the streets of London, a scene that would be immensely damaging to her carefully cultivated brand.

Another factor was the humiliation of being relegated to second-tier status as "non-working royals," which denies them the right to appear on the Buckingham Palace balcony during the coronation celebrations.

Quite honestly, the fact that Harry feels compelled to come to the coronation, and will apparently swear fealty to Charles as king, and the fact that Meghan is not coming with him, is, under the circumstances, quite a win for the royal family.

Monarchy’s future ‘really well set’ as British royals have ‘100 year plan’ for survival: Royal expert

Royal expert Nick Bullen discussed the future of the monarchy during Saturday's coronation, predicting that the Royal Family will persist, especially given the show of support at Saturday's coronation.

"I think the future of the monarchy is really well set," Bullen said. "I've made programs with the royal family and we've talked to them about how they operate a 100-year plan. They're not even thinking about when William takes over or even when George takes over. It's when George's grandchildren take over, so they're always thinking 100 years ahead."

"I think people in Britain really want the royal family still," he added. "The other options just aren't really things that we'd consider."

He cited a survey that looked at what Americas thought of the royal family, where 34 million Americans said they were avid royal fans, while another 35 million said they were truly fascinated by the royal family. ........

REVIEW: 'The Windsors at War: The King, His Brother, and a Family Divided'
Dominic Green   
May 7, 2023

Two houses, each alike in indignity. For there can be no dignity when the world knows your business because your exiled brother and his American wife are complaining about you to the media. The Meghan and Harry saga is what Sigmund Freud and Elizabeth II would have recognized as "the return of the repressed." For decades, the late queen feared a return of "Uncle David," known to the world as Edward VIII, and his wife, the erstwhile Wallis Simpson of Baltimore. Elizabeth II lived long enough to see her nightmare come true, with Prince Harry bringing some second-son energy to the role of entitled manchild and Meghan Markle adding a touch of the Norma Desmond as she clings to the biggest role of her life (though she did not attend this weekend’s coronation).

History repeats as farce with a Netflix contract. Edward and Wallis were tabloid material at the time. The difference was that while the British media obliged Buckingham Palace by suppressing the story of the king’s romance with a divorcée, the American media had fun. This pattern endured after 1945. While the royals did their best to pretend that Edward and Wallis did not exist, Edward and Wallis sold England by the pound in the United States. Prince Harry may be too slow to see it, but in escaping The Firm, he has merely sidestepped into another family business.  ...

Was Edward a posh twit with good intentions, or was he a traitor by choice? Did he serve his country by trying to avert another world war, or did he betray it in its hour of peril? The evidence that Edward was a posh twit is massive and incontrovertible. The evidence about his motives will always be partial. It is also ambiguous, because securing peace between Britain and Germany would almost inevitably have returned him and Wallis to Britain and the throne. ...

George, a decent chap who struggled with a stutter and smoked himself to death, became a hero for sticking it out under the bombs. Edward was parked for the duration in the Bahamas, where he continued to hang out with Nazi sympathizers, griped about living in a "third-class British colony," and engaged in dodgy schemes for self-enrichment. He felt "acute pain" at his demotion and became an acute pain in the neck.

Once, both brothers were just posh twits with good intentions. Today, George is the patriot king and Edward the Nazi-loving traitor. This polarized image is pretty accurate. Wallis loved the Nazis more, but Edward, like many posh English twits at the time, valued Adolf Hitler as a potential ally in protecting the British Empire from the Bolsheviks and the Jews. He was making pro-Hitler statements in public as early as 1935. When Edward was pushed off the throne in 1936, a secret British civil service memo reported that Hitler was "very distressed at the turn that affairs had taken in this country, since he had looked upon the late King as a man after his own heart, and one who understood the Führerprinzip." ...

'I was exasperated': Prince Harry's ghostwriter J.R Moehringer tells of tensions between them while working on Spare and reveals their relationship became so fraught that he shouted at the royal in row at 2am

By Richard Eden Diary Editor For The Daily Mail

Published: 11:59 EDT, 8 May 2023 | Updated: 16:07 EDT, 8 May 2023

Tensions between the Duke of Sussex and the rest of his family are so bad that Mike Tindall once publicly joked that the royals would like to throw a few punches at him.

Now, Prince Harry's ghostwriter, J. R. Moehringer, has revealed that their relationship became so fraught while they were working on the book Spare that he started shouting at the King's younger son at one point.

'I was exasperated with Prince Harry,' Moehringer admits, 'My head was pounding, my jaw was clenched, and I was starting to raise my voice.

'And yet some part of me was still able to step outside the situation and think, ''This is so weird. I'm shouting at Prince Harry''.

'Then, as Harry started going back at me, as his cheeks flushed and his eyes narrowed, a more pressing thought occurred: ''Whoa, it could all end right here''.'

Prince Andrew 'is refusing to budge' from Royal Lodge as he demands a summit with King Charles — and a bit of dignity from his brother

    Prince Andrew is refusing to move out of his £30m home Royal Lodge in Windsor
    King Charles feels Duke should leave the home and move into Frogmore Cottage
    It is understood Royal Lodge is earmarked for Prince William and his family 

By Daphne Barak For The Mail On Sunday

Published: 16:42 EDT, 13 May 2023 | Updated: 16:45 EDT, 13 May 2023

Prince Andrew will not move out of his £30 million home, Royal Lodge on the Windsor estate, putting him on collision course with King Charles.

The Duke of York is digging his heels in and refusing to vacate the 30-room mansion, his home for more than 20 years.

Charles has let it be known that Andrew should leave the house, where he lives with ex-wife Sarah Ferguson, and downsize to Prince Harry’s former home, Frogmore Cottage.

It is widely understood that Royal Lodge, once occupied by the Queen Mother, has been earmarked for Prince William and his family.

As first revealed in The Mail on Sunday, the King is cutting the annual £250,000 subsidy that the late Queen gave to Andrew – meaning he can no longer afford the upkeep for the mansion.

This is quite a predicament for King Charles and how selfish of Andrew.  I think Charles has been more than generous towards his brother in spite of his scandals. 

I don't know British law, but there has to be a way to oust him.  Between Harry and Andrew, Charles has a handful.
