00:00:03.200 --> 00:00:15.000
Callaroga Shark Media. Hello and welcome through Balance Intrigue. I
2
00:00:15.000 --> 00:00:18.879
am your host, Francis. It seems Meghan Markel has taken
3
00:00:18.920 --> 00:00:21.839
another hit on the social front, as a source claims
4
00:00:22.160 --> 00:00:25.440
Victoria Beckham is not bothered about the reported rift between
5
00:00:25.480 --> 00:00:28.039
her and the Duchess of Sussex in The Daily Mail.
6
00:00:28.120 --> 00:00:32.039
Richard Eden's source tells him Victoria never really liked Meghan.
7
00:00:32.640 --> 00:00:35.600
Eden reminds us David was once so close to Harry
8
00:00:35.640 --> 00:00:38.119
that he and Victoria were among the guests when the
9
00:00:38.159 --> 00:00:41.039
Prince married Meghan Marchael at Saint George's Chapel, Windsor in
10
00:00:41.119 --> 00:00:44.759
twenty eighteen. But the Beckhams have now distanced themselves from
11
00:00:44.799 --> 00:00:47.079
the Duke and Duchess of Sussex for reasons they are
12
00:00:47.159 --> 00:00:51.280
even more fascinating than anyone outside their circle realizes. As
13
00:00:51.439 --> 00:00:54.039
Eden tells it, when Meghan returned to her native Los
14
00:00:54.079 --> 00:00:57.799
Angeles to find paparazzi camped outside her mother's home, the
15
00:00:57.840 --> 00:01:00.320
Beckhams offered the former actress the use of the six
16
00:01:00.399 --> 00:01:03.479
bedroom Italian style villa in the city, where she was
17
00:01:03.479 --> 00:01:06.879
waited on by their staff, and after Meghan moved into
18
00:01:06.959 --> 00:01:10.480
Nottingham Cottage at Kensington Palace. Victoria, whose fashion label was
19
00:01:10.519 --> 00:01:13.560
expanding into beauty products, gave her advice on makeup, and
20
00:01:13.599 --> 00:01:15.560
a member of her staff provided her with help on
21
00:01:15.920 --> 00:01:19.560
facials and hairdressing free of charge. Of course. When news
22
00:01:19.560 --> 00:01:22.760
of the Beckhams generosity made the press, however, Meghan, who
23
00:01:22.799 --> 00:01:25.640
was said to be outraged the Beckhams, denied that they
24
00:01:25.680 --> 00:01:30.079
had leaked any information, but hypersensitive reportedly, Harry and Meghan
25
00:01:30.159 --> 00:01:33.719
became distrustful of them. While David and Victoria did go
26
00:01:33.799 --> 00:01:36.239
on to attend Harry and Meghan's wedding ceremony, they were
27
00:01:36.280 --> 00:01:39.239
not invited to the evening reception, which was attended by
28
00:01:39.239 --> 00:01:43.920
some show business figures the SUSSEXSS barely knew. Despite that snub,
29
00:01:44.079 --> 00:01:47.000
David agreed to Harry's request to fly to Australia, where
30
00:01:47.040 --> 00:01:50.000
he was hosting the Invictus Games. He celebrated competition for
31
00:01:50.079 --> 00:01:53.200
injured servicemen and women. Later that year, he made the
32
00:01:53.319 --> 00:01:56.079
arduous twenty two hour journey from London to Sydney, only
33
00:01:56.159 --> 00:01:58.599
to discover that the Duke would not see him or
34
00:01:58.640 --> 00:02:02.799
even be pictured with him. Eden's source says both David
35
00:02:02.799 --> 00:02:05.439
and Victoria put great importance on family and would never
36
00:02:05.480 --> 00:02:07.799
ever turn on their relations the way that Harry and
37
00:02:07.920 --> 00:02:12.280
Meghan did. The truth is that Victoria never really liked
38
00:02:12.319 --> 00:02:14.919
Meghan much. She was friendly and welcoming to her, but
39
00:02:15.039 --> 00:02:19.840
is not bothered about staying touch. Recent polls show increasing
40
00:02:19.879 --> 00:02:22.960
public support for David Beckham to receive a knighthood from
41
00:02:23.039 --> 00:02:26.319
King Charles. The former England football star who received an
42
00:02:26.319 --> 00:02:29.400
Obe in two thousand and three, has been making frequent
43
00:02:29.439 --> 00:02:33.240
appearances alongside the Royals, fueling speculation about a potential honor.
44
00:02:33.520 --> 00:02:37.080
An Express poll of over six thousand readers revealed fifty
45
00:02:37.159 --> 00:02:40.280
nine percent in favor of Beckham receiving a knighthood thirty
46
00:02:40.360 --> 00:02:44.840
nine percent against two percent undecided. Despite his popularity, Beckham
47
00:02:44.840 --> 00:02:48.120
was notably absent from the King's recent birthday honours list.
48
00:02:49.479 --> 00:02:51.960
Prince William has shared a heartfelt reason for not attending
49
00:02:51.960 --> 00:02:54.319
the twenty twenty four Summer Olympics in Paris, and it
50
00:02:54.360 --> 00:02:58.280
all revolves around Cap Middleton's health. William was reportedly planning
51
00:02:58.280 --> 00:03:01.199
to show his support for Team g B, but ultimately
52
00:03:01.240 --> 00:03:05.159
decided against it. During a visit to the Brittley Community Pool,
53
00:03:05.599 --> 00:03:09.159
William responded to Team GB olympians Tom Dean and Adam
54
00:03:09.199 --> 00:03:12.719
Petty about whether he had attended any Olympic events. Referring
55
00:03:12.759 --> 00:03:15.800
to Pete, who had tested positive for COVID at the Games,
56
00:03:15.879 --> 00:03:18.520
William said, no, I was so keen to come, but
57
00:03:18.560 --> 00:03:21.000
I have to say, after reading someone's interview about COVID,
58
00:03:21.000 --> 00:03:24.039
I decided, because my wife was obviously having chemo, that
59
00:03:24.080 --> 00:03:27.080
I didn't want to risk bringing COVID home. So Adam
60
00:03:27.199 --> 00:03:29.400
very kindly reminded me that it was still a thing.
61
00:03:29.800 --> 00:03:31.680
But we watched the whole thing. We were glued to
62
00:03:31.759 --> 00:03:35.639
it every day. William also revealed his family's love for swimming,
63
00:03:35.719 --> 00:03:38.840
noting that Prince George has developed an interest in scuba diving.
64
00:03:39.120 --> 00:03:42.280
George loves scuba diving, he shared, recounting a moment when
65
00:03:42.280 --> 00:03:44.280
they took him underwater at the age of ten, which
66
00:03:44.319 --> 00:03:48.039
he enjoyed immensely. Prince William lost his voice cheering on
67
00:03:48.120 --> 00:03:51.960
Aston Villa as his lifelong team secured their first Champions
68
00:03:52.080 --> 00:03:55.400
League win at home in over forty years against Bay
69
00:03:55.439 --> 00:03:58.919
in Munich. The emotional rollercoaster was palpable, from the high
70
00:03:59.000 --> 00:04:01.400
of thinking paw Touris had scored to the low of
71
00:04:01.400 --> 00:04:04.639
a disallowed goal. William was a sight to behold, cheuring
72
00:04:04.719 --> 00:04:07.919
passionately and embracing fellow fans enjoy. By the end of
73
00:04:07.960 --> 00:04:10.560
the match, he candidly admitted, I've lost my voice. I
74
00:04:10.599 --> 00:04:14.840
can't quite believe it. Forty two years William was reportedly
75
00:04:14.840 --> 00:04:17.079
feeling quite uneasy about the fate of some very special
76
00:04:17.160 --> 00:04:19.920
jewels that once belonged to his late mother, Princess to Hannah,
77
00:04:20.240 --> 00:04:24.800
particularly those incorporated into Meghan Markel's engagement ring. Meghan, who
78
00:04:24.839 --> 00:04:26.879
was given the ring by Prince Harry in twenty seventeen,
79
00:04:27.399 --> 00:04:31.160
wears a piece featuring two diamonds from Diana's personal collection
80
00:04:31.759 --> 00:04:35.639
flanking a central stone from Botswana. Initially, Harry designed the
81
00:04:35.720 --> 00:04:38.279
ring with a plain gold band, but less than two
82
00:04:38.319 --> 00:04:42.279
years later it underwent a subtle redesign, sporting a slimmer band.
83
00:04:42.639 --> 00:04:44.839
When Meghan was first spotted with it at the twenty
84
00:04:44.920 --> 00:04:47.759
nineteen Trooping the Color event. However, see he has seen
85
00:04:47.759 --> 00:04:51.199
Meghan attending several significant occasions without the iconic ring, including
86
00:04:51.240 --> 00:04:54.240
a Ghala in May where it was purportedly being fixed,
87
00:04:54.399 --> 00:04:56.920
and most notably at this year's in Victors Games. This
88
00:04:57.079 --> 00:05:00.639
absence has raised eyebrows, particularly as Royal insign a puzzled
89
00:05:00.639 --> 00:05:04.680
and concerned about its sudden disappearance. A source speaking to
90
00:05:04.879 --> 00:05:07.480
New Idea magazine revealed that William is quite anxious about
91
00:05:07.480 --> 00:05:11.160
the whereabouts of his mother's precious stones. The insider claimed
92
00:05:11.480 --> 00:05:13.519
it's safe to say his has set off alarm bells
93
00:05:13.560 --> 00:05:17.199
at the palace. William was reportedly reaching out through mutual friends,
94
00:05:17.560 --> 00:05:20.079
expressing his desire to know what's going on. The source
95
00:05:20.079 --> 00:05:23.040
emphasized that the connection to his mother's legacy is vital
96
00:05:23.040 --> 00:05:26.120
for William's stating her jewelry is an important part of
97
00:05:26.160 --> 00:05:29.000
it and his memories of Princess Diana wearing each piece
98
00:05:29.120 --> 00:05:32.800
will never go away. William has jumped into the ongoing
99
00:05:32.839 --> 00:05:36.000
debate on whether Strictly Come Dancing is a rigged affair
100
00:05:36.480 --> 00:05:38.920
while giving a cheeky nod to Kate's love for the show.
101
00:05:39.519 --> 00:05:41.920
During a recent royal engagement, he met Tom Dean, the
102
00:05:41.920 --> 00:05:45.879
first contestant to be booted off the dance floor this season. William,
103
00:05:45.879 --> 00:05:48.160
in a moment that was pure gold for gossip lovers,
104
00:05:48.319 --> 00:05:50.759
shared that the Princess of Wales as a massive fan
105
00:05:50.839 --> 00:05:54.680
of the program, saying Kate absolutely loves it. Of course,
106
00:05:54.800 --> 00:05:56.879
the Prince didn't shy away from sharing his thoughts on
107
00:05:57.000 --> 00:06:00.000
Tom's early exit, likely sensing the strings of a fixed
108
00:06:00.040 --> 00:06:08.480
conspiracy brewing amongst fans, pallasentrigue to be right back, Big

has expressed her admiration for Kate, praising her amazingly brave
111
00:06:15.879 --> 00:06:19.040
fight against cancer. In a recent interview with Hello magazine,
112
00:06:19.120 --> 00:06:22.399
Sophie described Catherine as wonderful. Hey, we've done that a
113
00:06:22.399 --> 00:06:24.920
few times, noting that it was uplifting to see her
114
00:06:24.959 --> 00:06:28.160
at Wimbledon. She remarked, it was so cheering to see her.
115
00:06:28.439 --> 00:06:31.160
Beautiful as ever, She's been amazingly brave and is doing
116
00:06:31.240 --> 00:06:34.639
so well. Sophie, who married Frederick Windsor in two thousand
117
00:06:34.639 --> 00:06:37.800
and nine, has her own royal connections. Her husband is
118
00:06:37.800 --> 00:06:40.639

119
00:06:40.720 --> 00:06:43.800
a second cousin once removed to Prince William and Harry.
120
00:06:44.600 --> 00:06:47.120
The couple has two daughters. Their family ties reflect both
