0:03 Callaroga Shark Media. Hello and welcome to Palace Intrigue. I am your host, Mark Francis, Prince. Harry has made significant lifestyle changes since Mary Megan Markle, one of which was giving up his passion for hunting. Known for his love of blood sports, Harry once posed to with a water buffalo he had hunted in two thousand and five. However, in twenty twenty, he reportedly made the choice to sell a pair of bespoke hunting rifles valued at around fifty thousand pounds. The private sale was allegedly made to a buyer who appreciated the guns for their craftsmanship rather than their royal connection. He bought them because he wanted them, not because they belonged to Harry. But he was quite chuffed when he found out. A friend of the buyer shared with the son, adding they are beautiful examples and he's very pleased with them, but he's not the sort of person who wants to boast about the royal connection.
0:59 In an interview with Radio Times in April twenty twenty, British primatologist doctor Jane Goodall, a friend of Harry and Meghan, mentioned that she believed Harry had given up hunting for good under Meghan's influence. When asked if Harry and his brother William were conservation advocates, doctor Goodall responded, yes, except they hunt and shoot. But I think Harry will stop because Meghan doesn't like hunting, so I suspect that is over for him. She also remarked on Harry's dedication to conservation despite his shifting circumstances, adding I don't know how his career is going to map out, but yes, I've been in touch, though I think he's finding life a bit challenging just now. The shift came before Harry and Meghan's relocation to North America, first to Canada and THENTO Los Angeles. As their lives have continued to change, Harry's commitment to conservation appears to endure, albeit with adaptations reflecting his new life with Meghan. In Spare, Prince Harry delved into the complexities of royal family dynamics and record an unusual Christmas gift from his great aunt, Princess Margaret, whom he referred to as Aunt Margo, recalling a family Christmas at Sandringham where the royals gathered to exchange gifts on Christmas Eve, Harry chose the smallest present in his stack, a package labeled from Aunt Margo. When he opened it, he found a biro pen. Surprised, he looked over and said, thank you, Aunt Margo. She remarked on its supposed significance, but Harry remembers it as a rather chilly gesture, thinking that is cold blooded. The Duke reflected on their sparse relationship, revealing he barely knew Margaret despite the twelve and a
2:29 half percent of DNA they shared. Describing her impact on family gatherings, he noted she could kill a house plant with one scowl. Harry saw parallels between their roles and spares and the royal family, his to William and Margaret's to Queen Elizabeth. He observed the similarities in sibling rivalry and competition, saying her relationship with Granny wasn't an exact analog of mine with Willie, but pretty close. This poignant comparison highlighted the pressure and complexities both spares faced within the monarch's rigid hierarchy. Meghan Michaels, pensed for wearing beige and neutral tones, has been well noted, a choice. She explained in her Netflix docuseries as a way to avoid overshadowing Queen Elizabeth II, who was known for her colorful attire. However, Meghan has frequently stepped out in bold red looks, the color she returns to time and again for its powerful impact.
3:18 According to stylist Kate Jones from the House of Color, red represents power, opulence, passion, and love. It's an eye catching choice that communicates confidence and strength, traits that Meghan seems keen to emphasize. Red also suits every skin tone, says Joan, making it an ideal shade for anyone willing to take the spotlight from glamorous gowns two perfectly coordinated accessories. Meghan has embraced red for various high profile events. Notable appearances include a scarlet Carolina Herrera gown at a Los Angeles charity gala, a striking Sophia dress at twenty twenty Mount Batten Festival of Music, and a red ensemble at New York's Salute to Freedom gala in twenty twenty one. Meghan's love for red dates back even further. She was seen in The Hugh as early as two thousand and six on Deal or No Deal in contrast to her understated colour choices. While in the UK, Meghan's frequent use of rad now seems to underscore her independence and confidence. Red, a color also favored by the late Queen for its visibility in crowds, appears to carry an empowering message that resonates with Meghan's public image today more pallace in just a moment. Queen Camilla's decision to modernize royal traditions included the introduction of Queen's Companions, replacing the centuries old title of Ladies in Waiting. While their roles are largely similar, the Companions perform fewer intimate duties and have a more discreete ceremonial focus. One of their more peculiar responsibilities ensuring the exclusivity of lavatories for the Queen during royal visits, a task Lady Catherine Brooke, one of the six Companions,
4:52 handles with expertise and poise. Lady Catherine, affectionately known as Kate, brings a wealth of aristocratic experience to her role as the daughter of Lady Susan Hussey, who served as Queen Elizabeth, the Second's most senior Lady in Waiting for over sixty years, Kate has a first hand education in royal protocol. Her late father, Baron Marmaduke Hussey, also had deep ties to the royal family as chairman of the BBC and a trusted figure in royal circles. Married to Sir Francis Brook, a baronet and longtime royal representative of Ascot, Lady Catherine's connections to the royal family are undeniable. Her mother's legacy as head of heads among the ladies in waiting undoubtedly shaped her approach to her new role, ensuring she upholds the intricate etiquette required in royal service. The Queen's companions, or women of impeccable social standing married to landowners or titled figures, receive a modest stipend for their work, yet the true compensation lies in the honor and prestige of serving the Crown. Where the scouting laboratories, while managing ceremonial duties, their contributions perfectly enduring blend of tradition and modernity within the monarchy. The Queen revealed her unusual but nutritious snack of choice raw peas straight from the garden during a recent school visit and slow. The Queen said, I tell you what I really like, eating peas straight from the garden.
6:11 If you take them straight from the pod, they are delicious and really sweet. I take all my grandchildren down to the garden and they spend hours and hours eating peas. Peas are indeed a powerhouse of nutrition, rich in vitamins, C and eat and zinc and antioxidants. According to the British Hard Foundation, eating peas, beans or pulses daily can even help reduce cholesterol levels. But raw peas aren't the only healthy habit in Queen Camilla's repertoire. Her son, food critic Tom Parker Bowls, has previously revealed her preference for protein packed breakfasts like scrambled or cheesy baked eggs. Whilst he's not opting for eggs, porridge with honey is a favorite. Tom also noted that her love for traditional British fair extends to dishes like chicken casseroles, locally sourced steaks, cottage pie, baked salmon, and roast chicken. For lunch, Camilla reportedly favors lighter meals such as fish, salads, almonds and avocados, a choice she's encouraged King Charles to adopt as for beverages.
7:09 The Queen Consort has long enjoyed red wine, a tradition stemming from her child. Reflecting on her father's influence, she recalled, my father was in the wine business, so as children we used to take wine and water. I have drunk it ever since. He always said it was his medicine and it kept him going. He used to take two or three glasses a day. And there you have it. Would like to email us addresses the Palace Intrigue at gmail dot com.
