Caloroga Shark Media. Hi, and welcome to Palace Andry Gay,

2
00:00:13.560 --> 00:00:16.760
I'm your host, Mark Francis. US Weekly gave Meghan the

3
00:00:16.879 --> 00:00:19.519
cover story for which We're Thankful on a holiday weekend,

4
00:00:19.600 --> 00:00:23.719
with the headline on her own terms. They write, Once

5
00:00:23.800 --> 00:00:26.120
upon a time, Megan Michael was a TV actress who

6
00:00:26.120 --> 00:00:28.480
worked on a successful show and been a popular lifestyle

7
00:00:28.519 --> 00:00:31.280
blog called The Tig on the Side in her adopted

8
00:00:31.280 --> 00:00:34.399
home of Toronto, where Suits filmed for several seasons. She

9
00:00:34.439 --> 00:00:36.679
spent most of her time hanging out with her cast mates,

10
00:00:36.840 --> 00:00:40.320
practicing yoga and taking her beagle Guy for walks. Then

11
00:00:40.359 --> 00:00:44.439
she met Prince Harry, and insider said Meghan has transitioned

12
00:00:44.479 --> 00:00:47.799
from actress to royal to entrepreneur. She's worn many hats,

13
00:00:47.799 --> 00:00:50.520
but she believes age and experience have prepared her for

14
00:00:50.560 --> 00:00:53.119
a bigger purpose in life. She's very happy with the

15
00:00:53.200 --> 00:00:56.520
role she's carved out. A source close to the Sussexes

16
00:00:56.520 --> 00:00:59.159
tells US Weekly Meghan has a great group of friends

17
00:00:59.159 --> 00:01:01.600
who are all success in their own ways who she

18
00:01:01.679 --> 00:01:05.280
really trusts. In addition to famous powers like Serena Williams

19
00:01:05.280 --> 00:01:07.319
and Ellen de Generes, she has a group of local

20
00:01:07.400 --> 00:01:10.239
mums she sees regularly. The first inside is says the

21
00:01:10.280 --> 00:01:13.079
duchess has become very close with neighbor and Bumble founder

22
00:01:13.120 --> 00:01:16.280
Whitney wolf Heard, and a second source says she's tight

23
00:01:16.359 --> 00:01:20.439
with entrepreneur Jamie Kern Lima. Harry meanwhile, has a small

24
00:01:20.480 --> 00:01:22.879
group of close friends, says the second source, noting that

25
00:01:22.920 --> 00:01:27.319
he keeps his inner circle tight for understandable reasons. Ar

Is mentioned as if that's a thing, we actually had

27
00:01:29.959 --> 00:01:32.840
to google them. It's American review Orchard. A source to

28
00:01:32.920 --> 00:01:35.920
US Weekly says Row will likely be very much in

29
00:01:35.959 --> 00:01:38.120
line with whom Megan is as a person. She loves

30
00:01:38.159 --> 00:01:40.760
hosting events, and she's very thoughtful about how she treats

31
00:01:40.760 --> 00:01:44.120
her guests whenever they come over. In April, celeb powells

32
00:01:44.159 --> 00:01:47.799
like Chris Jenner, Chrissy Tiger, Mindy Kayling, Garsel Beauvet, and

33
00:01:47.840 --> 00:01:50.439
Tracy Ellis Ross got a sneak peek when Megan sent

jam nestled inside Baskets Fresh lemons her Netflix series is

36
00:01:57.519 --> 00:01:59.319
going to be a take on her day in the

37
00:01:59.359 --> 00:02:01.920
Joy of Living, reveals the third source, and in the

38
00:02:01.959 --> 00:02:04.239
show will include little things she's learned in terms of

39
00:02:04.280 --> 00:02:08.240
being a modern day hostess. In the Daily Mail, Richard

40
00:02:08.360 --> 00:02:10.400
Eden writes about the news that the paperback edition of

41
00:02:10.439 --> 00:02:13.680
Spare has no new material and Harry will not be

42
00:02:13.759 --> 00:02:17.280
doing any interviews. Per Eden, the fact that Harry is

43
00:02:17.319 --> 00:02:20.039
not giving interviews at this time round is further evidence

44
00:02:20.039 --> 00:02:21.919
of what royal sources have been telling me for some

45
00:02:22.039 --> 00:02:25.120
time that he is increasingly desperate for a reconciliation with

46
00:02:25.159 --> 00:02:28.680
his father as well as the wider royal family. There

47
00:02:28.719 --> 00:02:30.560
is no doubt that Harry wants to patch things up

48
00:02:30.599 --> 00:02:33.680
with the King. Once Sourcers said his father's cancer treatment

49
00:02:33.680 --> 00:02:36.919
has given things an added sense of urgency. It's safe

50
00:02:36.919 --> 00:02:38.960
to assume this is the main reason Harry won't be

51
00:02:39.039 --> 00:02:42.199
updating his tawdry memoir with new comments about his relations

52
00:02:42.400 --> 00:02:44.039
So so why he won't be trying to sell more

53
00:02:44.080 --> 00:02:47.280
copies of Spare with appearances on chat show sofas. But

54
00:02:47.360 --> 00:02:49.840
will it work? It may encourage the King to start

55
00:02:49.879 --> 00:02:51.960
taking Harry's calls again, but there needs to be an

56
00:02:51.960 --> 00:02:55.039
awful lot more water under the bridge before William would

57
00:02:55.039 --> 00:02:59.199
even be prepared to consider a reconciliation. Pallas in Trigo

58
00:02:59.240 --> 00:03:05.759
be right back. Lady Louise Windsor, the twenty year old

59
00:03:05.840 --> 00:03:08.360
niece of King Charles and the daughter of Prince Edward

60
00:03:08.439 --> 00:03:12.080
and Sophie, is reportedly considering a career in the military.

61
00:03:12.319 --> 00:03:14.879
If she pursues this path, she could become the first

62
00:03:14.919 --> 00:03:18.840
female royal to join the armed forces since her late grandmother,

63
00:03:18.919 --> 00:03:21.960
Queen Elizabeth I. Currently in her second year at the

64
00:03:22.039 --> 00:03:25.479
University of Saint Andrews studying English, Lady Louise has expressed

65
00:03:25.520 --> 00:03:28.319
interest in the military, diplomacy or law as a potential

66
00:03:28.360 --> 00:03:31.719
career path. A source share that she has become particularly

67
00:03:31.840 --> 00:03:34.560
enthusiastic about the army cadets and is keen on the

68
00:03:34.560 --> 00:03:37.319
idea of serving the King and country through a military career.

69
00:03:38.120 --> 00:03:40.479
This potential career choice would follow in the footsteps of

70
00:03:40.560 --> 00:03:43.120
Queen Elizabeth I, who made history during World War II

71
00:03:43.199 --> 00:03:45.680
as the first female royal to serve as a full

72
00:03:45.719 --> 00:03:48.759
time member of the Armed Forces. The late Queen joined

73
00:03:48.800 --> 00:03:53.719
the Auxiliary Territorial Service as Junior Commander, despite initial resistance

74
00:03:53.719 --> 00:03:55.800
from her father, King George the Six, who believed that

75
00:03:55.800 --> 00:04:00.000
her royal duties should take presidence. In his book Elizabeth,

76
00:04:00.039 --> 00:04:04.159
An Intimate Portrait Royal expert Gile's Brandreth reveals that Queen

77
00:04:04.199 --> 00:04:06.800
Elizabeth was her time was nearing its end in the

78
00:04:06.840 --> 00:04:09.800
final months of her life. This insight was provided by

79
00:04:09.800 --> 00:04:12.879
doctor Iron Greenshulds, the Moderator of the Church of Scotland,

80
00:04:12.879 --> 00:04:15.280
who spent time with the Queen of bow Moral shortly

81
00:04:15.319 --> 00:04:18.600
before her passing. According to doctor green Schulds, the Queen

82
00:04:18.639 --> 00:04:20.920
accepted her fate with grace, saying that her faith was

83
00:04:20.959 --> 00:04:23.680
central to her life and that she had no regrets.

84
00:04:24.079 --> 00:04:26.639
Queen Elizabeth the Second, and known for her deep Christian faith,

85
00:04:26.680 --> 00:04:28.439
took her role as Supreme Governor of the Church of

86
00:04:28.480 --> 00:04:32.000
England very seriously. Her devotion to her faith was evident

87
00:04:32.040 --> 00:04:35.439
throughout her life, often referenced in her speeches and public addresses.

88
00:04:35.839 --> 00:04:38.600
Kenneth Mackenzie, the chaplain of bow Moral, noted the Queen

89
00:04:38.680 --> 00:04:42.120
railing missed church services, underlining the importance of her faith

90
00:04:42.199 --> 00:04:45.399
even in her later years. Brandreth also shared in his

91
00:04:45.399 --> 00:04:47.360
book that he had heard rumour suggesting the Queen may

92
00:04:47.360 --> 00:04:50.560
have been suffered from myeloma, the type of bone marrow cancer.

93
00:04:51.000 --> 00:04:53.720
This would have explained her increasing tiredness, weight loss, and

94
00:04:53.759 --> 00:04:56.600
the mobility issues she experienced during the last year of

95
00:04:56.600 --> 00:05:00.759
her life. Myoloma, which often affects the elderly, commonly causes

96
00:05:00.800 --> 00:05:05.040
bone pain, particularly in the pulvis and lower back. As

97
00:05:05.079 --> 00:05:07.240
the final weekend of summer wins down, it was soon

98
00:05:07.279 --> 00:05:11.040
be timed to take out swimming indoors. Buckingham Palace, know

99
00:05:11.199 --> 00:05:14.319
and worldwide for its grandeur, holds many secrets within its walls,

100
00:05:14.600 --> 00:05:17.040
one of the more surprising being a small and rather

101
00:05:17.120 --> 00:05:20.199
basic swimming pool. According to Elissa Anderson, the late Queen

102
00:05:20.199 --> 00:05:23.519
Elizabeth the Second's former Press secretary, the pool, commissioned by

103
00:05:23.600 --> 00:05:26.120
King George the sixth in nineteen thirty eight, is both

104
00:05:26.240 --> 00:05:29.439
cold and modest in size. Despite his unassuming nature of

105
00:05:29.439 --> 00:05:32.160
the pool has played a role in royal life, particularly

106
00:05:32.199 --> 00:05:35.680
for the younger members of the family. Princess Diana famously

107
00:05:35.759 --> 00:05:38.560
used the pool, and it is believed that Princess William

108
00:05:38.560 --> 00:05:41.600
and Harry learned to swim there. Royal staff could also

109
00:05:41.680 --> 00:05:43.839
use the pool when it wasn't occupied by the family,

110
00:05:43.959 --> 00:05:47.000
along with other amenities like the tennis courts. However, the

111
00:05:47.040 --> 00:05:50.759
pool's simplicity contrasts with the palace's opulent surroundings, and it

112
00:05:50.800 --> 00:05:53.319
reportedly wasn't a favorite of the late Queen Elizabeth I,

113
00:05:53.759 --> 00:05:56.839
who rarely used it. Over the years, the pool has

114
00:05:56.879 --> 00:05:59.600
been a private retreat for various royals, including the current

115
00:05:59.680 --> 00:06:02.800
King the Third during his childhood. However, Charles, known for

116
00:06:02.839 --> 00:06:06.000
his environmental advocacy, has recently had the pools heating reduced

117
00:06:06.120 --> 00:06:10.079
to conserve energy, making it even colder. In addition to

118
00:06:10.120 --> 00:06:12.800
the pool, Buckingham Palace boasts other luxuries like a private

119
00:06:12.839 --> 00:06:15.800
sinilar used by staff, a dedicated post office run by

120
00:06:15.800 --> 00:06:18.560
a Royal mail and even a personal atm tucked away

121
00:06:18.560 --> 00:06:21.439
in the basement. These lesser known features contribute to the

122
00:06:21.519 --> 00:06:26.040
palace's unique blend of historical significance and modern convenience, and

123
00:06:26.160 --> 00:06:28.560
with the summer holidays ending, Kit and William are catching

124
00:06:28.600 --> 00:06:31.319
grief for how much time they take off. In a

125
00:06:31.360 --> 00:06:34.839
recent episode of The Royal Roundup, royal commentator Russell Palmer

126
00:06:35.160 --> 00:06:37.519
noted that while William and Kate may have been working

127
00:06:37.560 --> 00:06:41.040
behind the scenes, they have taken significant time off, particularly

128
00:06:41.079 --> 00:06:44.759
to spend with their three children. Royal expert Richard Fitzwilliams

129
00:06:44.759 --> 00:06:47.360
also commented on the situation, suggesting that the couple might

130
00:06:47.399 --> 00:06:51.079
face pressure to increase their number of official engagements. He pointed

131
00:06:51.079 --> 00:06:53.199
out that it's uncommon for both parents in a family

132
00:06:53.240 --> 00:06:55.759
to have twelve or thirteen weeks off during their children's

133
00:06:55.759 --> 00:06:58.920
school breaks, which might draw some scrutiny despite the general

134
00:06:58.959 --> 00:07:02.879
goodwill towards them. In contrast to Princess and The Princess

135
00:07:02.959 --> 00:07:05.000
Royal continues to be the most active member of the

136
00:07:05.079 --> 00:07:08.360
royal family, completing two hundred and fourteen engagements in twenty

137
00:07:08.399 --> 00:07:11.360
twenty two. King Charles closely followed with one hundred and

138
00:07:11.360 --> 00:07:14.680
eighty one. Prince Edward and Sophie, Duchess of Edinburgh were

139
00:07:14.680 --> 00:07:17.480
also noted for their commitment, with one hundred forty three

140
00:07:17.519 --> 00:07:21.399
and one hundred and thirty eight appearances respectively. The disparity

141
00:07:21.439 --> 00:07:23.879
in workload between William and Kate and the rest of

142
00:07:23.920 --> 00:07:26.560
the royal family has led to some speculation they may

143
00:07:26.600 --> 00:07:29.319
have to step up their public duties in the near future.

144
00:07:29.879 --> 00:07:32.560
