On the young Queen Elizabeth...

“The serious, almost prim figure in the modish suits and frocks reading her careful speeches, the austere military form in the sidesaddle at the Trooping ceremony, the dazzling fairy queen at the ballet do not seem to bear much relation to a bouncy country matron in tweeds. It is hard to remember sometimes that this is the same girl who likes to lead a conga line through the palace, dance eightsome reels all night and hum Cole Porter’s Night and Day in her husband’s ear.

“One woman told me that every time she wears Lanvin, men fall in love with her. Another told me she wore Lanvin to face her husband’s lawyer because she felt protected. If I can make men fall in love with women and if I can protect women, I think I can die peacefully.”

— Alber Elbaz (Lanvin)

“He is someone who doesn’t take easily to compliments but he has, quite simply, been my strength and stay all these years, and I, and his whole family, and this and many other countries, owe him a debt greater than he would ever claim or we shall ever know.” - Queen Elizabeth II

Dear Aunt Lilibet,
We are deeply saddened by the news of the passing of our dear Uncle Philip.
In these painful moments, we want to convey our deepest condolences on behalf of the Government and the Spanish people, as well as all our closeness and support. We will never forget the occasions we were able to share with him and the legacy of service and dedication to the Crown and the United Kingdom that he has always had by your side.
Our thoughts and prayers are with Your Majesty and with the whole family.
With all our love and affection,
Felipe and Letizia

Ok so disclaimer: This is a post about my opinions about this week. I'm basing it on things that I've read and/or seen. I'm not claiming any truthfulness but I'm claiming ownership of what I write here. Deal with it.

I honestly thought that this whole debacle was gonna end after Henry and Meghan decided to leave the RF. Then after that, I thought it was gonna end with their big business announcement with Spotify and Netflix. Then, I thought it would end after Finding Freedom extraordinaire was published. Then I thought it would end after she won the case against the MoS (gotta say that petition of writing an apology in the same font as they run the story made me laugh so baaaaaaaaad. That's the type of petty I want to achieve). And then the Oprah confirmation hit. Now, I want to say it was a confirmation because I've known for a while this was in the making, the news of this cooking for two years wasn't a surprise for me but, as many other things I've heard over the years, this was something I didn't want to be true. But that's another story.

I'm gonna talk about the Oprah interview so here we go:

I feel like I could have written this myself.

Does she know that Beatrice and Eugénie got their security taken away when they became 5th and 6th in line? 🤨 Does she know it’s *legally* not allowed for Archie to be a Prince or Princess? 🤔 How do I know more about this than her?!?!
