I’ll say it again: I really appreciate the fact that Angelina Jolie and her legal team are fighting back publicly against Brad Pitt and his whirlwind of abusive bullsh-t. Over the past week, we’ve been focused on Brad’s lawsuit against Angelina for her sale of Nouvel (her half of Chateau Miraval), and Angelina’s countersuit. In some new filings last week, Angelina’s lawyers asked the judge to order Pitt to turn over all of his communications related to the onerous NDA he wanted Angelina to sign, to force her to stay silent about his years of physical, emotional and financial abuse. Jolie also said that Pitt’s physical abuse began before the 2016 plane terror. Well, Brad Pitt is really mad that people are talking about how he beat his wife and children. He wants us to know that he’s really glad he has Ines de Ramon in his life.

Amid Brad Pitt’s ongoing legal battle with ex Angelina Jolie and her new claims of past abuse, a source tells PEOPLE he’s dedicating his attention to moving forward with work and girlfriend Ines de Ramon.

“The long-drawn drama with Angelina used to really get to him, especially the custody drama and abuse allegations,” the source says of Pitt, 60, who shares six children with Jolie, 48: Maddox, 22, Pax, 20, Zahara, 19, Shiloh, 17, and twins Knox and Vivienne, 15. “It’s been very stressful for him to have to defend over and over again. But since things don’t seem to change, he’s trying to move on with his life.”

Pitt and Jolie have faced off over custody (though they’ve been ruled single, their 2016 divorce is still not finalized) and are currently locked in a legal battle over ownership of their French winery Château Miraval. Meanwhile, Pitt is focused on his upcoming Formula 1 (F1) racing movie, which he is in the middle of filming. The source says he also “finally feels happy again” with de Ramon, 34, “by his side.”

“Although he’s always been surrounded by trusted friends, he still had years when he felt very lonely,” the source continues. “Sharing his life and living with Ines now makes his very happy. Ines is great. She doesn’t come with any baggage and is able to just support him.”

Other friends close to the Academy Award winner “just [want] him to be happy,” the source says. “He’s certainly not perfect. He’ll be the first to tell you. [But] he will continue to push back legally.”

A rep for Pitt declined to comment, though a friend of the actor familiar with the litigation over the years maintained to PEOPLE, “This is a pattern of behavior — whenever there is a decision that goes against the other side they consistently choose to introduce misleading, inaccurate and/or irrelevant information as a distraction.”

[From People]

“Whenever there is a decision that goes against the other side…” Hilariously, it looks very much like Pitt is losing across the board in all of his lawsuits and legal issues. Several weeks ago, insiders and Angelina’s lawyer told Entertainment Tonight that a huge chunk of Pitt’s unhinged lawsuit against Jolie has already been thrown out. Pitt is also getting his ass handed to him by Yuri Shefler, the French authorities and a Luxembourg court.

“The long-drawn drama with Angelina used to really get to him… It’s been very stressful for him to have to defend over and over again” – he is literally the one suing Angelina over her completely above-board sale of Nouvel. He is the one drawing out the “drama” and has been for years as Angelina has taken every measure she can to extract herself legally, financially and physically from him.

Soon after Kensington Palace’s Mother’s Day frankenphoto fiasco, CBS brought Tina Brown in to offer her royal-expertise on the situation. Brown was pretty harsh, saying that the “wheels had come off” Kensington Palace and that the whole “missing princess” thing was massively mismanaged. A few days after Brown appeared on CBS, she ended up flying to London. It felt like she was actually doing some leg work to figure out what the hell was going on. She talked to her sources in the palaces and royalist media and she was seemingly still on the trail when Kensington Palace published the Princess of Wales’s big cancer-announcement video (on March 22).

Days after the video was published, March 25, the New York Times published a guest op-ed written by Brown. I covered it here – Brown said that the royal courts are constantly lying and have done for decades. Her sources told her that “the turmoil behind the scenes has been intense, resulting in what has felt like a series of baffling press screw-ups” at Kensington Palace. Then she wrote about what’s really been going on, which is that William and Kate have been frozen with anxiety because of their proximity to the throne and that “Catherine is battling more — much more — than cancer. A tidal wave of premature responsibility is crashing in her and William’s direction.” What was interesting about Brown’s NYT column was that it felt mostly accurate and it sounded like this was the general assessment from real royal sources too, that William and Kate were being crushed by their own sense of inadequacy. What was also interesting is that very few outlets covered Brown’s NYT column two weeks ago, but suddenly, in the past two days, American and British outlets are running quotes from it.

Prince William is reportedly in “frightening proximity” to ascending the British throne amid His father King Charles III’s ongoing battle with cancer.

“The almost simultaneous news of Charles’s cancer has put William and Catherine in frightening proximity to ascending the throne just when they had hoped for a span of years to parent their children out of the public eye,” journalist Tina Brown claimed in a New York Times essay published on March 25. William and his wife, Kate Middleton — who is also battling cancer — share three kids: Prince George, 10, Princess Charlotte, 8, and Prince Louis, 5.

The former Vanity Fair editor-in-chief asserted that the idea of William becoming the reigning sovereign has spurred much stress for the couple.

“The prospect of it, I am told, is causing them intense anxiety,” she wrote. Brown also claimed that several scandals surrounding the royal family — including Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s estrangement from the royal family as well as Prince Andrew’s ties to convicted pedophile Jeffrey Epstein — have put William and Middleton “under unmanageable pressure.”

“Catherine is the most popular member of the royal family after William,” she wrote, adding, “The future of the monarchy hangs by a thread, and that thread is her.”

Brown furthered that William, 41, and Middleton, 42, are burdened with more responsibilities than just her health condition.

“A tidal wave of premature responsibility is crashing in her and William’s direction,” she said. “Frozen, unready and with Catherine now seriously unwell, the Prince and Princess of Wales await the awesome burden of the crown.”

Similar coverage has appeared in The Independent, Us Weekly, InStyle and on and on. Why the two-week delay? Why are Brown’s comments suddenly making all kinds of headlines? Part of it is that Buckingham Palace has seemingly ordered radio silence across the board for the past week or so, and people are going back to some weeks-old gossip. But I also think that there’s a reason why Brown’s column is getting more traction right at this moment. It will be very interesting to come back to Brown’s piece six months from now to see if she was right on the money.

The Princess of Wales is still recovering at Anmer Hall, in Norfolk. Part of me still believes that Kate has been in Norfolk for much of the past four months, but who even knows at this point. Kate and Prince William’s staffers are still based at Kensington Palace, not Windsor and not Norfolk. Back in the day, sources used to let it slip that William and Kate would often disappear for weeks and months at a time without checking in with their office, and I believe that’s probably the case at the moment as well – during Kate’s months-long disappearance, we heard that Kate’s staffers had not been told about what was going on with her health-wise, and staffers basically hadn’t spoken to her since 2023. Well, the KP staff are managing to fill their time in the absence of their Top CEO – they’re sending out thank you notes to anyone sending get-well cards to Kate.

Kate Middleton could be your royal pen pal. As the Princess of Wales, 42, receives cancer treatment, fans may want to send the royal a letter or card filled with well wishes.

On April 6, X user AllexmarieHoll1 shared a short note they said they received after sending a card to Princess Kate following the palace’s announcement that she had undergone abdominal surgery in January. The fan’s royal reply on Kensington Palace stationary said, “Thank you for your kind well wishes to Her Royal Highness. The Princess of Wales. Your thoughtful gesture is very much appreciated.”

Many royal fans have been sending members of the family mail for special occasions such as birthdays, holidays, wedding anniversaries and major events like last year’s coronation. (Prince William and Princess Kate’s team even reportedly responded to a young girl who invited Prince George to her birthday party!)

AllexmarieHoll1 shared they sent their latest correspondence to Princess Kate at:

“HRH The Princess of Wales
Clarence House
London SW1A 1BA United Kingdom.”

Although Princess Kate, Prince William and their three children live primarily in Windsor, their London base is Kensington Palace. According to other royal fan sites, mail can also be sent to them there by using the address: “Kensington Palace London W8 4PU.”

[From People]

Why are you, a royalist and Kate fan, sending get-well messages to Kate at Clarence House, a place she has never lived in her entire life? Surely royal fans know that her office is in Kensington Palace. Anyway, I was curious about what the messages looked like, and I found a photo here at Hello – it’s the most basic print-out using a large font, with absolutely nothing personalized to suggest that Kate has actually replied. They don’t even have an autopen for her signature and no one would handwrite “-C” at the bottom of the thank you. The Waleses’ flunkies are truly just phoning in their jobs.

Last week, tickets went on sale for tours of Balmoral, the Windsors’ privately-owned Scottish castle. This is the first time in history that Balmoral will open to the public in any way, and the tickets were snapped up quickly. Last week, Buckingham Palace also expanded their tours, so that people can pay extra to see more of BP, especially the famous “balcony.” Those tickets were also snapped up. King Charles’s biographer Robert Jobson went on and on about the brilliance of Charles’s decision to open up two of his twelve homes for paying visitors. But at least someone is pointing out that Charles is opening up BP and Balmoral specifically because those are Charles’s two most loathed palaces and castles. The Mail even quoted good ol’ Norman Baker, who is constantly reminding everyone that Charles hordes real estate and extensive cash reserves tax-free.

The King calls Buckingham Palace ‘The Big House’, and while he intends to move there in 2027 when its £369million refurbishment is complete, those close to him insist he is ‘no fan’ of the royal home. His decision to open up Buckingham Palace and Balmoral Castle to the public reflects his emotional detachment from them – and a need to bring in money for their upkeep, royal experts told MailOnline today.

The King is said to be a firm believer in ‘the living tradition’, namely that a house which is not lived in becomes a museum. But some believe tours costing up to £100 suggest both homes are heading that way. The Queen rarely stayed at her London home after the pandemic – preferring Windsor Castle – and before then only used six of Buckingham Palace’s 775 rooms.

Former BBC royal correspondent Michael Cole has said Charles’ decision to open up Buckingham Palace and Balmoral after just a year on the throne shows he has ‘no great affection’ for them – even verging on a dislike. He said ‘The King dislikes Buckingham Palace and wants to open it up more to visitors. He is not comfortable living there and goes there only to conduct official business – for instance for the Prime Minister’s “audience of the King” usually on Tuesday evenings’.

‘He also has no great affection for Balmoral, hence his decision to make it more accessible to the paying public. He always stays at Birkhall, his late grandmother’s cosy, comfy home on the Balmoral Estate. It is the King’s instinct and wish to make the monarchy more accessible, making changes that would not have been contemplated while his mother was alive and on the throne’.

Many believe that Charles will do all he can to stay at Clarence House – just a five minute walk from Buckingham Palace. His home on The Mall has been revamped and furnished by Charles and Camilla with their own pictures, artworks and priceless antiques. He is unlikely to relish moving in 2027, when he will be 78.

One source said recently: ‘Charles is no fan of “the big house”, as he calls Buckingham Palace. He doesn’t see it as a ­viable future home or a house that’s fit for purpose in the modern world. He feels its upkeep, both from a cost and environmental perspective, is not sustainable’. It is also no secret that he and Queen Camilla prefer living at Birkhall, the late Queen Mother’s home seven miles from Balmoral.

Mr Cole says that Charles is more likely to go to Buckingham Palace to board his helicopter then spend the night there. He said; ‘Charles goes there to go to the grounds to board a helicopter to go somewhere he prefers — another of his residences, Sandringham House, Balmoral Castle, Highgrove’.

When asked where could be next Mr Cole said the royal residence in Norfolk – although it would be a wrench given his mother’s affection for her “Dear old Sandringham”, as she called it. He said: ‘The Queen loved Balmoral but she loved Sandringham, also personally owned by the monarch, even more’.

Former MP Norman Baker, an expert on King Charles and royal finances, told MailOnline it is all about trying to ‘rake in even more money’. Mr Baker believes like Buckingham Palace, Balmoral and Sandringham should be brought into public ownership, rather than be privately owned by the Royal Family. He said: ‘We need a full investigation by the Public Accounts committee into royal finances’.

[From The Daily Mail]

From what I can see, Norman Baker is practically the only person in England who says sh-t like “we need a full investigation into royal finances” with any kind of regularity. He’s right too – while it’s clearly a good move for Charles to open up Balmoral to tours, it is a private residence and Charles is pocketing that money. The BP tour money goes back into the upkeep of the royal estates though, and in fact, BP tours only started after the big fire at Windsor Castle, and the government refused to fully finance the repairs and refurbishment. As for what Michael Cole says… it’s also accurate. Charles hates BP as a residence and he doesn’t want to move in, ever. He also hates Balmoral. I think he actually likes Sandringham though, he’s made a point of staying there quite a bit already.

We last discussed country music star Morgan Wallen in February 2021, while most people were still social distancing because the Covid vaccines were not widely available. Wallen went out for a drunken night on the town, in Nashville, with some of his good ‘ol boy bros. They got sh-thoused and rowdy, and made their way back to Wallen’s home. In the middle of the night, they started screaming at each other outside of Wallen’s home, and one of his neighbor’s recorded Wallen yelling at one of his friends and calling the guy the n-word. What happened next was surprising in several different ways – Wallen was widely condemned by country music’s gatekeepers and elder statesmen, his music was pulled from country music radio stations and Wallen quickly gave a thorough apology where he promised to use this incident to educate himself. He also asked his fans to stop defending him, that what he said was indefensible.

Well, Wallen largely weathered the storm. His apology worked, his career rebounded quickly, and he’s continued to be a very successful country star, although I still cannot name one of his songs. From what I gather, the February 2021 was not the first or the last problematic incident for Wallen, but he has not been publicly caught saying racist sh-t again (fingers crossed). That being said, that man just got arrested and charged with multiple crimes because of a particularly drunken night out in Nashville.

The country singer Morgan Wallen was arrested early Monday in Nashville on charges of reckless endangerment and disorderly conduct, after he was accused of throwing a chair from the roof of a downtown bar, according to reports. Mr. Wallen, 30, a superstar who had last year’s most popular album, and who had just opened his latest tour with two shows at a stadium in Indianapolis, was arrested and booked by police in Nashville, according to court records.

WTVF, a CBS television affiliate in Nashville, reported that Mr. Wallen is accused of throwing a chair from the sixth story of Chief’s, an establishment on lower Broadway — an area of the city full of honky-tonks and concert venues — that had just been opened by another country star, Eric Church. The chair hit the ground near where some police officers were standing, and staff members at the restaurant told officers that Mr. Wallen had been responsible, the station reported, citing the police.

Mr. Wallen was arrested on three counts of reckless endangerment, a felony; and one count of disorderly conduct, a misdemeanor. He was released early Monday and has a court date set for May 3. In a statement, Worrick Robinson, a lawyer for Mr. Wallen, said: “Morgan Wallen was arrested in downtown Nashville for reckless endangerment and disorderly conduct. He is cooperating fully with authorities.”

[From The NY Times]

This sounds less like Johnny Cash and more like Biffington Von Wasp misbehaving at a frat party. Yes, someone could have been seriously hurt and Wallen should be incredibly grateful that he avoided killing, hurting or maiming anyone when he threw the chair. I absolutely wonder about the circumstances around this and whether that contributed to what Wallen was charged with. Because it sounds like there was possibly a brawl or something else was happening (apparently, his ex just eloped and he was in his feelings about that, but is that it?). It’s not like Wallen was just having a cocktail and he decided to simply throw a chair off a roof for the hell of it. Bonkers. Anyway, if Morgan Wallen wasn’t canceled for saying the n-word, he probably won’t be canceled for reckless endangerment.

I still find it extremely suspicious that someone (who??) organized a British church service to celebrate the tenth anniversary of the Invictus Games. It feels like an enormous set-up by the British government, working in cahoots with the British media and the royal family. Back in February, it just appeared fully formed and on the schedule: an anniversary service to which Prince Harry was “expected” to attend. Granted, this could be an attempt to convince Harry and the Invictus team to select Birmingham as the host city for the 2027 games, although that is also a huge f–king trap too. But for now, the focus is on will-he-or-won’t-he come back to the UK in May. And, as always, will Meghan join her husband? Will they bring their children? Will they meet with King Charles or Prince William? This whole gossip storyline gets recycled for each new “thing” those people invent as a reason why Prince Harry “must come back.” Speaking of, the Sun published exclusive comments from Richard Fitzwilliams:

Richard Fitzwilliams exclusively told The Sun: “The best way of resolving the rift [between Harry and William], if it is to be resolved, is to do it privately. With Catherine and the King’s illness – that is an enormous game changer even when there are deep family rifts. The two very senior members of the royal family, are very, are seriously ill, and you can’t really predict what’s what’s going to happen. So, as I say, the Sussexes do spring surprises. This has happened before, and you never know what might happen in the coming weeks or months. But I don’t think Harry would do anything without Megan’s consent.”

Mr Fitzwilliams went on to speak about the Invictus games being a potential turning point in their relationship. The expert previously hinted a reunion could be possible when the Duke visits the UK in May to mark the tenth anniversary of the Invictus Games. It would be Harry’s first time in Britain since his sister-in-law, Princess Kate announced she is receiving preventative chemotherapy for cancer after abdominal surgery in January.

The royal biographer continued: “We don’t know but things can happen that you don’t expect? And you look at the time scale between now and the Invictus games – It’s still quite the time. It’s perfectly possible Harry could come over before then to see his father, whether or to what extent he might see William and Catherine, or whatever I simply don’t know. But Megan is very unpopular in Britain. She knows that any appearance she’d make here would make headlines, and they wouldn’t necessarily be favourable,”

Mr Fitzwilliams has already previously claimed that Meghan would make the final call on whether Archie and Lilibet visit their family across the pond. He claimed: “Meghan has the say. There’s no doubt Harry wishes to convey he is a very devoted family man and will put them above everything else. Just like William. If Meghan didn’t want to come she could never be forced to. It would be extremely unlikely Harry would come over with the kids without Meghan….the problem is Meghan isn’t obviously keen on visiting Britain because she is not popular here. Nor is Harry, but it’s different for him. She’s asked for this. If she comes there will be a huge amount of adverse publicity because of the way she has acted for the past four years. On top of that you have the issue of Archie and Lilibet who are completely blameless.”

[From The Sun]

“If Meghan didn’t want to come she could never be forced to” – he sounds almost rueful, like “dang it, if only we could drag her back to the UK so we could continue to abuse her!” And this: “If she comes there will be a huge amount of adverse publicity because of the way she has acted for the past four years.” The way SHE has acted? These people are so helplessly addicted to hating Meghan, they live in their own little worlds. Anyway, the larger point is that royalists are going to fuss over this for the next month: is Harry coming for the Invictus thing, will Meghan come with him, will either of them speak to William or Kate. I hope the Sussexes avoid the trap and announce at the last minute that they’re not coming. Perhaps even send Princess Beatrice and Edo in their place.

Last week, Tori Spelling and Dean McDermott finally pulled the plug on their 18-year marriage. Dean and Tori have been threatening to get a divorce for probably a decade at this point, but hadn’t gone through with it because neither of them had the money to do so. Tori’s been spilling some lukewarm tea about their breakup over on her podcast, misSPELLING. During last week’s episode, she revealed deets about the fight that finally broke their marriage. This week, she elaborated more, revealing that she angrily threw a loaded baked potato and stomped off into the room she shares with her kids. Tori and Dean have five children: Liam, 17, Stella, 15, Hattie, 12, Finn, 11, and Beau, seven. During the story, she dropped the tidbit that she and Dean also haven’t slept in the same bedroom in three years. And it’s not because they like their space. It’s because they didn’t like each other.

Tori Spelling is offering more insight into the state of her marriage to Dean McDermott prior to their split. On Monday’s episode of Spelling’s misSPELLING podcast, the Beverly Hills, 90210 star finished detailing her story of the June 2023 fight between the exes.

In last week’s episode, Spelling shared the comment McDermott made that led to their split, revealing, “He said, ‘Ugh, I’m so sick of this. I have been picking up Tori Spelling’s s**t for 18 years.’ And I f**king lost it.”

In part 2 of the episode, Spelling talked about the aftermath of that comment, in which she threw her loaded baked potato on the ground and stormed into “our bedroom.”

She went on to clarify the “our” she was referencing.

“Me and the kids — because Dean and I didn’t sleep together for three years, different bedrooms. His choice,” she shared.

Spelling said that McDermott had previously claimed they didn’t share a bed because there was a pig in there, but she denied this claim, saying a baby pig slept in their bed one night per the vet’s recommendation in 2017.

“I was following orders. It was used to snuggling and it needed that for a few nights,” she explained. “But when it peed between us, he was like, ‘The pig’s leaving the bed.’ And I was like, ‘Understood.’ And that was it. That was the only night the pig was in the bed.”

The mother of five insisted, “The animals and kids didn’t come between us in the bed.”

She added that another excuse her ex made for not sleeping in their bed with her was because she slept with the TV on.

“I had the TV on for distraction to distract my life, just to zone out and be entertained,” she said, later adding, “I don’t even sleep with the TV on anymore, isn’t that ironic?”

[From ET Online]

There is soooo much to unpack here. Tori has revealed before that she shares a bedroom with four of her five kids, which…okay. There is probably something to unpack there, but what I really want to talk about is Tori sleeping and cuddling WITH A PIG! That would be a deal breaker for me too! And it peed in the bed with them?! Gross. “The animals and kids didn’t come between us in the bed.” It kinda sounds like they did in some way, shape, or form, at least from Dean’s perspective. I did laugh at her confession that she threw the loaded baked potato, though. Is that going to be this year’s “throwing ketchup?” I hope those two really are done with each other because it’s pretty clear that they were wrong for one another from the sordid, dramatic start.

In January 2021, Ioan Gruffudd told his wife Alice Evans that he was leaving her and filing for divorce. Alice promptly went off the deep end and showed us all while Ioan was getting the hell out. The fact that Ioan moved on very quickly with Bianca Wallace was a big part of Alice’s drama as well – Alice began publicly attacking Bianca online and in interviews, and many believed/knew that Alice was also creating fake social media accounts specifically to troll and abuse Ioan and Bianca. In 2022, Bianca and Ioan were finally granted a three-year restraining order – Alice could no longer contract them in any way. Alice has violated that restraining order multiple times in myriad ways. A few days ago, Bianca posted a statement about Alice’s restraining order violations and just how unhinged Alice has been online:

Bianca Wallace has launched an extraordinary attack on love rival Alice Evans, accusing her of ‘stalking, harassing and abusing’ her and fiancé Ioan Gruffudd. Following their acrimonious split in March 2021, Gruffudd and Evans have been locked in a very public legal battle, resulting in slanging matches that threatened to overshadow their respective careers.

Now Wallace, 31, has broken her silence on the saga, claiming that she has been inundated with messages from followers who claim to have been sent abusive messages from Evans, 55, and revealing she feels it’s her duty to ‘shine a light on bullies and abuse.’ She also repeated Gruffudd’s claims that Evans had set up fake social media accounts with the purpose of harrassing them after a restraining order banned her from mentioning him on social media.

In a series of Instagram posts on Thursday, the Australian actress went on to share 4512 pages worth of social media posts in which Evans had mentioned her or Gruffudd, 50, as well as links to court documents detailing the three-year restraining order he took out against her as a result of the relentless posts.

She began by sharing: ‘I want to say thank you so much for the love and support I have received. I believe the time has come to shine a light on bullies and abuse because they only hold power when hidden in the darkness. Bullies and people who harass others want us to believe that we are alone, but we are not. Bullying thrives in the darkness. It makes people afraid to do anything lest it get worse. I’m encouraging everyone to keep sharing your experiences. Continue reporting to the authorities. Always reach out for support. Although some of what I have mentioned happened over the last few years, I want to be very clear – The harassment and abuse has not ceased. It has continued unabated and is being directed far more broadly than just us.’

Wallace went on to claim that Evans had breached a three-year restraining order put out against her in August 2022. She continued: ‘On 13 November 2023 at 10:56am LA time, I received an email from the detective informing that the current investigations did find this persons phone number linked to at least one of the fake accounts being used to stalk, harass, and post defamatory claims. I want to stress that people who do this need to be held accountable for their actions, and as I have mentioned, I won’t allow anyone to bully or abuse me ever again. If you so wish to view the supporting evidence mentioned in my previous post, most of it, minus what is currently ongoing, is already publicly available. I found the following links containing the information on Google and there is a lot more publicly available information.’

Wallace went on to share the links to Gruffudd’s court filings for the Domestic Violence Restraining Order as well as the actor’s filings for joint custody with Evans of their daughters Ella, 14, and Elsie, 10. In a final blow, Wallace shared a link comprised of 4512 pages worth of social media posts in which Evans had mentioned her or Gruffudd. She ended her series of posts by writing ‘Keep being the light.’

[From The Daily Mail]

Once you understand Alice’s absolutely unacceptable behavior over the past three years, it really gives everyone a new perspective on Ioan’s decision to leave her, right? Like, in the beginning, I even believed that Ioan could have handled the situation better and that he was likely cheating on Alice. But watching this all unfold… I hope he has great lawyers and that he and Bianca find some peace eventually, because Alice is going to spend the rest of her life making everything as hellish as possible for them. And their poor daughters – the amount of therapy those girls are going to need over the course of their lives should not be underestimated.

Here are some photos from today at Buckingham Palace. It was a special event – French soldiers were given “the honor” of taking part in the Changing of the Guard ceremony at the palace. It was organized specially to mark the 120th anniversary of the Entente Cordiale, which was a series of agreements signed by the UK and France to normalize their diplomatic and economic ties. King Charles and Queen Camilla were no-shows – they’re either still at Windsor Castle or they’ve already traveled to Birkhall in Scotland for the week. They sent the Duke and Duchess of Edinburgh, aka Edward and Sophie, in their place. Sophie and Edward hosted the French diplomats and inspected the French troops.

Edward looked fine, although he seemingly got a pretty bad haircut, one which makes him look kind of sickly. Sophie wore a maxi dress and a long overcoat. Is it really that cold in London right now? While the colors are “spring,” the ensemble looks so heavy. Meanwhile, the Ephraim Hardcastle column in the Mail is trying to make some of this sound like a snub directed at French president Emmanuel Macron. President Macron is the new Prince Harry!

Edward and Sophie’s deputising for the King at Monday’s 120th anniversary of the Entente Cordiale highlights the failure to invite French president Emmanuel Macron on a state visit.

With French soldiers taking part in Changing the Guard for the first time and his ambassador playing a key role, Emmanuel must be wondering when Charles will give him the nod.

His predecessors made a record five state visits during the reign of the late Queen, with every president from de Gaulle in 1960 to Sarkozy in 2008. Only Francois Hollande was never asked. Is Macron also to be denied the honour?

[From The Daily Mail]

There’s always so much talk (in America) about how QEII met almost all of the American presidents during her reign, but they never talk about all of the French presidents she met. I had no idea she met everyone but Hollande. I looked it up – she did meet Macron several times but I don’t think she ever gave him a state visit (or he never asked). Charles and Camilla made a state visit to France late last year and it seemingly went well. So I don’t think Charles is snubbing Macron, I think Charles has just been slow to get going on the show-pony aspect of the monarchy. Charles’s first year as king should have been full of tours AND state visits. It was not and now Charles has cancer and this year will not have much traveling or any state visits, probably.
