0:00 A Calarogu Shark Media. Hello and welcome to Palace Intrigue. I am your host, Mark Francis. We are learning more about how Prince Harry and Meghan Markel apparently managed to arrive at Highgrove for their private meeting with King Charles without being spotted, and it seems they may have received some accidental assistance from Channel. According to a report cited by The News International, Higrove was hosting a Chanel event honoring students who had completed an elite twenty four week embroidery course on the same day as the Sussex reunion. That meant there were already a significant number of vehicles entering and leaving the estate. When Insider explained, there was a large number of cars coming and going from Higrove for the Shanell event, which allowed the Sussexes car to blend in and help them to enter the estate without being spotted. Harry and Meghan are said to have arrived for their meeting with the King sometime between three point thirty and four in the afternoon, remaining at Highgrove for more than an hour. Apparently, people around Harry suspected something significant was about to happen even before reports of the reunion emerged, when Observer recalled Harry arriving at the National Exhibition Center near Birmingham for his Invictus engagement with a noticeably upbeat demeanor. The observer said, Harry turned up at Invictus with a massive smile plastered all over his face.
1:18 Everybody was looking absolutely delighted. It wasn't just acting Liam Maguire, his UK aid looked absolutely like the cat that had got the cream as well. Then rumors started to go round that they were going to Highgrove. Megan has reportedly found herself on the outside of one of fashion's biggest events, with a new report claiming last year's appearance at Balenciaga left such a poor impression that she was not invited back. According to Royal reporter Paul Frolic, the Duchess of Sussex was absent from Balenciaga's Fall twenty twenty six cochure show in Paris, despite her friendship with the fashion house's creative director Pierre Paolo Piccioli. One source was blunt about the reason. Oh God, no, she was not invited. What happened last time.
2:00 There's no way Pierre Paolo would have back after last year. He wanted to be about the clothes, not her. Meghan attended Piccioli's debut Balenciaga show last October, but the visit generated headlines that had little to do with fashion. She was reported to arrive just before the show began, prompting claims that the late arrival irritated some guests, including former Vogue editor and a win tour She also faced criticism after video appeared to show her laughing as a model stumbled on the runway. Then after the show, Megan shared an Instagram photograph of herself and friends riding through Paris to the car with their feet up, drawing criticism because the image was taken near the tunnel where Princess Diana died. The report also revisits comments made by Piccioli after the event, when he explained that Meghan had personally contacted him about attending.
2:48 She reached out and she said she'd love to come to the show. There was no strategy or big orchestration, he told the cut Afterwards, Representatives for the Sussexes described Megan as one of Piccioli's collaborators, a description that reportedly did not go down well with some people connected to the fashion house. One source told Frolic a collaborator, who does she think she is? Beyonce? Here is po Pollo's first show for Balenciaga, and she basically claims some sort of credit for it. It's unbelievable. The article also notes that Meghan was absent from a Chanell event held at Highgrove on the same day she privately met King Charles and Queen Camilla with Prince Harry, Archie and Lilibert. Frolic suggested the Chanel gathering may even have helped disguise the Sussex's arrival at Highgrove by blending their vehicles into the traffic entering the estate. Fashion commentator SHAWNA. Kay argued Meghan's absence from both events spoke Volumes, saying, it's extraordinary if it always high end fashion houses, that would kill for any royal to wear anything that they produce, and Meghan is scurrying through the gate train to be anonymous while this huge Chanell event is on at Highgrove House. Radar Online is reviving long running speculation about Megan Markle's appearance featuring a celebrity plastic surgeon who believes the Duchess of Sussex may have undergone a handful of subtle cosmetic procedures over the years. Dr Anthony Yune reviewed photographs of Megan spanning from her teenage years, through her time on suits and into royal life, stressing that any changes he believes he sees are modest rather than dramatic. Looking at images of Meghan in her late teens and mid twenties, he describes that period of her natural appearance. Here she is
4:20 at age seventeen, and here she is at the age of twenty five. This is who I considered to be the natural young Megan Markle, before she may have had anything done, he said. Uton pointed to what he described as the shape of Megan's nose and lips at the time. When you take a look at her nose, she has a very characteristic nose. She has a bit of a round tip. She has a little bit of width. Also, take a pick at her lips. She has nice, full lips that anybody would die for. By the time Megan was starring in suits, Youne believes her appearance had changed slightly, he said, very conservative thinning of her nose and maybe even a little projection added to it. He also suggested her lips appeared very subtlely plumped. She is a gorgeous woman. These changes are very very subtle, and to somebody who's not a train die, it may not be so obvious.
5:02 Yun went on to address persistent speculation about botox, but said he was not convinced Meghan had been using it extensively. Referring to photographs taken before her twenty eighteen wedding to Prince Harry, he argued that visible movement in her forehead suggested otherwise. That's a classic case of no botox. He said. Botox paralyzes and weakens muscles, preventing them from contracting, and if you've got a lot of botox in your forehead, you can't do this. Megan will be back on TV screens later this month after Australian broadcast has confirmed the air date for her guest appearance on Master Chef. Australium. Channel ten announced that The Duchess of Sussex's episode will air on Sunday, July twenty six at seven pm, promoting it as one of the biggest moments of the current season.
5:43 In a post announcing the broadcast, the network said Meghan Duchess of Sussex joins the hashtag Master Chef au Kitchen as a guest judge, bringing her love of food entertaining in seasonal produce to one of the competition's most memorable challenges. The episode was filmed in April during Megan and Prince had visit to Australia, the couple's first trip down Under together in several years. Preview footage shows the Dutchess taking her place alongside the other judges, dressed on a black outfit as she samples dishes and offers her thoughts during the challenge. Interestingly, Meghan is not the first member of the Royal family to appear on Mastershef Australium. King Charles and Queen Camilla also featured on the program during a visit to Australia in twenty eighteen when Charles was still the Prince of Wales or Palace In Just a Moment, Meghan Michael is reportedly furious, as Royals always seem to be, over suggestions that she and Harry used their children as leverage during discussions surrounding last week's family reunion with King Charles and inside I told reality tea to her, this is about as low as it gets. To have people tearing her down and making hurtful and untrue claims is bad enough, but dragging her children into it is just beyond the pale. What makes it a thousand times worse is that she's sure a lot of this ugly narrative is being sanctioned or even pushed by people behind the palace walls. She can't believe anyone would seriously suggest she and Harry are using Archie and Lilibet to blackmail the King to get what they want. As far as Meghan's concerned, that's twisted thinking and completely beneath her. The source added that Megan worries Archie and Lilibert will one day read the stories being written about them there. You're going to
7:14 grow up and potentially read all this poison someday. So it boggles her mind that people could be so cruel inside it, said Royal biographer Andrew Lowney believes the success of the reunion with King Charles may depend on whether that silence holds. Speaking after news of the meeting emerged, Lowdie said it was an encouraging development. But warned. It all now depends on whether Harry's side begins to leak stories. The previous experience suggests the Sussexes can't resist leaking stories and trying to leverage this contact and there you have it.
