Hello and welcome to pallast Intrigue. I am your host. Mark.
3
00:00:19.079 --> 00:00:23.839
France's King Charles enjoyed a lighthearted encounter with an unexpected
4
00:00:23.920 --> 00:00:28.000
guest at Clarence House on Tuesday when a heritage cow
5
00:00:28.160 --> 00:00:32.399
named Poppy caused mild chaos during a reception for the
6
00:00:32.719 --> 00:00:36.679
King Charles the Third Charitable Fund. The Monarch was seen
7
00:00:36.840 --> 00:00:40.159
laughing as Poppy, a prize winning cow from a Duchy
8
00:00:40.200 --> 00:00:43.039
farm in Sussex, knocked over a small table and stepped
9
00:00:43.039 --> 00:00:46.119
into a hedge. Moments later, she was spotted relieving herself
10
00:00:46.159 --> 00:00:49.640
on the garden pathway, much to the amusement of those present.
11
00:00:49.920 --> 00:00:52.960
Her handler apologized with sorry about your garden, to which
12
00:00:52.960 --> 00:00:56.119
the King good naturedly replied, don't push her back into
13
00:00:56.119 --> 00:01:00.840
my boxed hedge. The morning concluded with Charles cutting into
14
00:01:00.840 --> 00:01:03.840
a Waitrose fruit cake before raising the knife in the
15
00:01:03.880 --> 00:01:06.560
air and telling guests I hope you enjoy the cake.
16
00:01:08.040 --> 00:01:10.519
Megan Michael's father, Thomas Mikel, has said to be trapped
17
00:01:10.519 --> 00:01:15.120
inside his apartment in the Philippines following a powerful earthquake.
18
00:01:15.439 --> 00:01:18.400
The eighty year old, who relocated to the country earlier
19
00:01:18.480 --> 00:01:20.920
this year, for what was described as a fresh start,
20
00:01:21.400 --> 00:01:24.920
now finds himself unable to leave his high rise flat
21
00:01:25.000 --> 00:01:29.560
after Tuesday's tremor. His daughter, Samantha Mirkle, confirmed the situation
22
00:01:29.640 --> 00:01:32.079
in a post on AX, writing, my father is stuck
23
00:01:32.120 --> 00:01:34.359
on the nineteenth floor of a building in the Philippines
24
00:01:34.400 --> 00:01:37.439
after a massive earthquake, and he can't walk and he
25
00:01:37.519 --> 00:01:41.200
is trapped. The United States Geological Survey reported the quake
26
00:01:41.239 --> 00:01:44.079
at a magnitude of six point seven, striking near the
27
00:01:44.120 --> 00:01:48.560
eastern Visayois region. Residents in affected areas were urged to
28
00:01:48.680 --> 00:01:53.799
move inland amid concerns of aftershocks and secondary hazards. Mister Markle,
29
00:01:53.840 --> 00:01:57.000
who moved with his son, Thomas Michael Junior, has reportedly
30
00:01:57.040 --> 00:02:00.799
found life in Southeast Asia a difficult adjustment due to
31
00:02:00.799 --> 00:02:04.799
the climate and cultural changes, a source told The New
32
00:02:04.879 --> 00:02:07.239
York Post earlier this year, Thomas and his son took
33
00:02:07.280 --> 00:02:09.840
the plunge and moved to Southeast Asia. It's been hard,
34
00:02:09.879 --> 00:02:12.560
but they have each other. No word yet on if
35
00:02:12.680 --> 00:02:17.479
Megan and Harry have offered to help mister Michael. It's possible,
36
00:02:17.560 --> 00:02:20.000
Meghan is busy with other projects. The Duchess shared a
37
00:02:20.080 --> 00:02:22.639
new post on the Instagram page for her lifestyle brand.
38
00:02:22.719 --> 00:02:26.560
As Ever, the photograph, apparently of her Montecito garden, was
39
00:02:26.599 --> 00:02:29.840
overlaid with the handwritten message let me tell you about
40
00:02:29.919 --> 00:02:31.879
the birds and the bees, and the flowers and the
41
00:02:31.919 --> 00:02:35.199
trees and the moon above. In the caption, she continued
42
00:02:35.240 --> 00:02:39.439
the lyrics from Jewel Aikins nineteen sixty five Songwriting and
43
00:02:39.520 --> 00:02:44.520
a Little Thing Called Love. The handwriting, featuring Michael's trademarks
44
00:02:44.599 --> 00:02:48.280
swells and Flourishes, drew mixed reactions from fans. While some
45
00:02:48.319 --> 00:02:51.479
praise to the personal touch, many admitted they struggled to
46
00:02:51.520 --> 00:02:54.759
make out the words. So hard to read, one user wrote,
47
00:02:54.800 --> 00:02:59.439
while another added, can't either ridiculous writing. Others were more
48
00:02:59.439 --> 00:03:03.960
blunt in the criticism, with one commenter remarking, Rachel's calligraphy
49
00:03:04.080 --> 00:03:08.080
isn't calligraphy. It's cursive on a caffeine rush. But sure,
50
00:03:08.120 --> 00:03:11.280
if you squint hard enough, every doodle is a designer font.
51
00:03:11.719 --> 00:03:14.080
A new report claims Megan may be weighing a return
52
00:03:14.120 --> 00:03:17.639
to acting after disappointing figures for her latest TV venture.
53
00:03:18.120 --> 00:03:20.960
A source tod Radar online, Megan put her heart into
54
00:03:20.960 --> 00:03:23.719
this show, but the ratings are not what she hoped for.
55
00:03:24.039 --> 00:03:26.919
That leaves her at a crossroads. People in the industry
56
00:03:27.080 --> 00:03:30.000
still see her as an actress first and foremost, not
57
00:03:30.039 --> 00:03:32.599
a lifestyle guru, and she's being urged to go back
58
00:03:32.599 --> 00:03:35.319
to her roots. But going back to acting is going
59
00:03:35.360 --> 00:03:38.280
to be a humiliating journey. The truth is she was
60
00:03:38.319 --> 00:03:40.479
a terrible actress and no one in Hollywood is going
61
00:03:40.520 --> 00:03:43.000
to want to cast her in big projects as she
62
00:03:43.120 --> 00:03:46.400
is also seen as toxic. She is doomed to chase
63
00:03:46.520 --> 00:03:50.000
something that will not succeed, like everything else she touches.
64
00:03:50.840 --> 00:03:54.280
Another industry source pointed to financial pressure as a factor,
65
00:03:54.439 --> 00:03:57.479
explaining everyone knows money is a real factor here. Megan
66
00:03:57.479 --> 00:03:59.800
has been determined to carve her own identity beyond the
67
00:04:00.560 --> 00:04:03.960
but if the lifestyle projects stall, acting remains a strong
68
00:04:04.159 --> 00:04:12.479
option more palasin just a moment. Hey, it's October and
69
00:04:12.520 --> 00:04:16.319
that means Halloween is coming, And we have a couple
70
00:04:16.319 --> 00:04:21.199

82
00:05:05.480 --> 00:05:09.160
from your friends here at Caloroda Sharkmedian. We told you
83
00:05:09.199 --> 00:05:11.519
how the hard working Princess of Wales may have missed
84
00:05:11.519 --> 00:05:14.600
out on her rugby duties but did find time for
85
00:05:14.680 --> 00:05:18.240
Harry Potter. We are now learning she narrowly avoided an
86
00:05:18.319 --> 00:05:21.720
awkward overlap with Prince Andrew. According to The Daily Mail,
87
00:05:22.079 --> 00:05:25.720
the Wales children met the young actors playing Harry, Hermione
88
00:05:25.839 --> 00:05:29.199
and Ron and even explored the replica Scottish Highlands built
89
00:05:29.240 --> 00:05:33.399
for the production. Prince Louis reportedly enjoyed a highlight moment
90
00:05:33.519 --> 00:05:35.800
a short ride on the Hogwarts Express built on a
91
00:05:35.800 --> 00:05:39.720
half mile track just behind them Wales Famili's Adelaide cottage residence.
92
00:05:40.120 --> 00:05:42.000
It was so special, Kat and the children met the
93
00:05:42.040 --> 00:05:43.959
young actors and the director on the set. There was
94
00:05:43.959 --> 00:05:46.240
only one night of filming there, so it really was
95
00:05:46.319 --> 00:05:50.079
a magical ticket, a source said, adding as for Louis,
96
00:05:50.079 --> 00:05:51.600
he got the chance to ride on the train with
97
00:05:51.639 --> 00:05:55.639
the driver. He seemed to absolutely love it. Crew Members, however,
98
00:05:55.759 --> 00:05:57.800
were said to be stunned when the Duke of York
99
00:05:57.920 --> 00:06:01.079
arrived at the set on another day with his grandchildren.
100
00:06:01.639 --> 00:06:05.519
Andrew lives nearby at Royal Lodge, which adjoins Windsor Great Park,
101
00:06:06.160 --> 00:06:08.720
will have a Kate sighting today as the Princess is
102
00:06:08.759 --> 00:06:12.759
her Royal Highness, a royal honorary air commodore will visit
103
00:06:12.800 --> 00:06:17.600
a ref conningsby and inside, it tells Radar Online, Charles
104
00:06:17.600 --> 00:06:22.000
depends on Catherine more than most realize. He values her composure,
105
00:06:22.360 --> 00:06:25.360
her sense of discretion, and her steadiness. He has even
106
00:06:25.360 --> 00:06:28.480
spoken of her as that daughter he'd never had. However,
107
00:06:28.560 --> 00:06:32.240
the source revealed that such closeness isn't coming without consequences.
108
00:06:32.560 --> 00:06:36.480
It stirs unease in other quarters. Even a senior aide
109
00:06:36.519 --> 00:06:39.759
seconds at this statement, saying that Charles clearly draws strength
110
00:06:39.759 --> 00:06:42.879
from Catherine. One of the main reasons for their bonding
111
00:06:42.959 --> 00:06:46.199
is the way Middleton has handled the demands of royal duty.
112
00:06:46.600 --> 00:06:50.560
Her demeanor has won the monarch's lasting admiration, but a
113
00:06:50.560 --> 00:06:53.639
growing influence inside the palace is obvious and that makes
114
00:06:53.720 --> 00:06:57.800
some people uneasy. Plane to the aid, the Princess of
115
00:06:57.800 --> 00:06:59.959
Wales now sits at the heart of three key RelA
116
00:07:00.000 --> 00:07:03.399
relationships with William, the King and with the Queen. But
117
00:07:03.560 --> 00:07:07.720
alongside the respect Kate commands, there's also jealousy and unease,
118
00:07:07.879 --> 00:07:11.079
a palace insider said, adding that when one figure becomes
119
00:07:11.160 --> 00:07:15.680
so close to the king, it doesn't go unnoticed. Prince
120
00:07:15.680 --> 00:07:18.000
William has offered a rare glimpse into his official duties
121
00:07:18.040 --> 00:07:20.959
at Windsor Castle, sharing a behind the scenes video of
122
00:07:21.000 --> 00:07:24.600
his meeting with the Crown Prince of Qwait posted on
123
00:07:24.639 --> 00:07:28.079
the Prince and Princess of Wales's social media accounts. The
124
00:07:28.199 --> 00:07:30.879
clip showed William arriving at the castle in a sertain
125
00:07:30.920 --> 00:07:34.680
tie before greeting His Highness Sheikh Sabah Al Sabah. The
126
00:07:34.720 --> 00:07:38.160
pair were seen shaking hands and speaking inside the residents,
127
00:07:38.399 --> 00:07:41.560
with shots of Windsor Castle inter cut throughout. While royal
128
00:07:41.600 --> 00:07:45.560
audiences are often private, King Charles typically has official photographs
129
00:07:45.600 --> 00:07:48.879
taken with visiting dignitaries. William's decision to post a video
130
00:07:48.920 --> 00:07:52.199
online continues the trend he and Princess Kate have embraced
131
00:07:52.240 --> 00:07:55.879
of using social media to offer more personal insights into
132
00:07:55.920 --> 00:08:00.560
their lives and work. That approach, sources suggest, extend to
133
00:08:00.600 --> 00:08:04.120
William's future coronation. One close aide told The Sunday Times,
134
00:08:04.120 --> 00:08:06.439
he is really thinking how do we make this coronation
135
00:08:06.800 --> 00:08:09.959
feel more relevant in the future. He is mindful of
136
00:08:10.000 --> 00:08:12.160
the fact that in twenty years time or whenever his
137
00:08:12.240 --> 00:08:15.319
time comes, how can the coronation be modern but also
138
00:08:15.439 --> 00:08:20.399
unifying to the nation and the Commonwealth. William has spoken
139
00:08:20.519 --> 00:08:23.399
movingly about his late grandmother, Queen Elizabeth I and a
140
00:08:23.399 --> 00:08:27.279
new episode of Apple TV's The Reluctant Traveler. In a
141
00:08:27.279 --> 00:08:31.240
preview clip, host Eugene Levy asks the Prince of Wales
142
00:08:31.319 --> 00:08:34.960
if he misses his grandmother. William responds, I do, Actually, yeah,
143
00:08:34.960 --> 00:08:38.080
I do miss my grandmother and my grandfather. It's been
144
00:08:38.159 --> 00:08:40.519
quite a bit of change, so you do sort of
145
00:08:40.600 --> 00:08:43.240
you think about them not being here anymore, and particularly
146
00:08:43.279 --> 00:08:46.240
being in Windsor. For me, Windsor is her She loved
147
00:08:46.240 --> 00:08:48.720
it here, She spent most of her time here. Showing
148
00:08:48.759 --> 00:08:50.360
you around today is very much a case of trying
149
00:08:50.399 --> 00:08:52.360
to make sure I'm doing it in the way she'd
150
00:08:52.399 --> 00:08:55.399
want you to see it. He also highlighted one of
151
00:08:55.440 --> 00:08:58.320
the Queen's greatest passions. She had her horses here as
152
00:08:58.360 --> 00:09:00.440
well as you can imagine. It was a big deal
153
00:09:00.480 --> 00:09:04.519
for her, so that's why she loved it here. Buckingham
154
00:09:04.519 --> 00:09:07.240
Palace is confirmed that the Princess Royal made an unannounced
155
00:09:07.320 --> 00:09:09.960
visit to Ukraine on Tuesday, where she drew attention to
156
00:09:10.080 --> 00:09:14.320
what were described as the traumatic experiences of children living
157
00:09:14.360 --> 00:09:17.759
on the front line of conflict. During her program, Princess
158
00:09:17.759 --> 00:09:20.879
Anne laid a toy bear at a memorial dedicated to
159
00:09:21.039 --> 00:09:24.159
children killed since the beginning of Russia's full scale invasion,
160
00:09:24.600 --> 00:09:26.879
and spoke with young people said to have been taken
161
00:09:26.919 --> 00:09:30.279
from their homes by Russian forces. She also met President
162
00:09:30.440 --> 00:09:33.600
Vladimir Zelenski to discuss both the United Kingdom's support for
163
00:09:33.840 --> 00:09:38.639
Ukraine and the country's continued resistance, and also met female
164
00:09:38.639 --> 00:09:42.960
police and Armed forces officers working to protect women and children,
165
00:09:43.320 --> 00:09:46.720
visited a rehabilitation center where she spoke with injured veterans,
166
00:09:46.919 --> 00:09:52.639
and toured the historic Saint Sophia's Cathedral in Kiev, and
