On the eve of his trip to Bogota, Prince Harry loses his Chief of Staff..
Harry will not attend the funeral of his uncle Robert Fellowes, who passed away on July 29 at the age of 82. Fellowes, the husband of Princess Diana's sister Lady Jane, had a distinguished career serving Queen Elizabeth II as her private secretary. Despite the familial connection, Harry's absence from the funeral is reportedly due to ongoing security concerns in the U.K.
Harry's concerns about his safety in the U.K. have been well-documented, and he has expressed reluctance to bring his wife, Meghan Markle, back to the country due to these fears. The couple is currently focusing on their visit to Colombia, which they apparently find safer than London.

00:00:03.200 --> 00:00:12.359
Callarogus, Shark Media, Hello and welcome through Palace intrigue and
2
00:00:12.519 --> 00:00:17.359
posted Francis. Prince Harry's chief of staff, Josh Kettler, has
3
00:00:17.440 --> 00:00:20.719
left his position after just three months, adding to the
4
00:00:20.760 --> 00:00:25.120
list of staff departures within the Sussex's team. Kettler joined
5
00:00:25.160 --> 00:00:27.640
the Archwall team in May of twenty four, just before
6
00:00:27.679 --> 00:00:31.559
the couple's tour of Nigeria, where they promoted Prince Harry's
7
00:00:31.559 --> 00:00:34.679
in Victors Games. He also accompanied Harry during a visit
8
00:00:34.719 --> 00:00:37.880
to London for a thanksgiving service for the Invictors Games
9
00:00:37.920 --> 00:00:41.159
at Saint Paul's Cathedral, though he was unable to arrange
10
00:00:41.159 --> 00:00:44.159
a meeting with King Charles the Third. While the departure
11
00:00:44.200 --> 00:00:47.159
was reported as a resignation by The Daily Mail, sources
12
00:00:47.200 --> 00:00:50.119
suggested it was by mutual consent, as Kettler had been
13
00:00:50.159 --> 00:00:54.280
hired on a trial basis. The Sussexes have experienced significant
14
00:00:54.320 --> 00:00:58.280
staff turnover, with eighteen reported departures over six years, an
15
00:00:58.320 --> 00:01:00.600
average of three a year. His high turn of a
16
00:01:00.679 --> 00:01:04.719
rate has fueled speculation and discussion, particularly against the backdrop
17
00:01:04.760 --> 00:01:08.159
of past allegations that Megan Michael was a difficult boss,
18
00:01:08.359 --> 00:01:11.640
a narrative that earned her the nickname Duchess Difficult in
19
00:01:11.680 --> 00:01:14.959
the British press. The Independent remind us that some of
20
00:01:14.959 --> 00:01:17.239
the previous de Archers, which included the manager of the
21
00:01:17.359 --> 00:01:21.480
company that makes TV programs and films, Bennett Levigne, quit
22
00:01:21.560 --> 00:01:24.280
in January after two years at the firm. He worked
23
00:01:24.319 --> 00:01:28.159
on the couple's Netflix documentary before making his exit. Oscar
24
00:01:28.200 --> 00:01:31.000
nominated producer Ben Browning left us the couple's head of
25
00:01:31.120 --> 00:01:35.760
internal content in January last year, a month after Rebecca Sananis,
26
00:01:35.799 --> 00:01:38.879
who was hired to produce Megan's reported twenty five million
27
00:01:38.879 --> 00:01:43.560
dollars Spotify podcast. Archetypes, quit in December of twenty twenty
28
00:01:43.640 --> 00:01:46.519
two as head of audio at Archwell. The president of
29
00:01:46.519 --> 00:01:50.840
the couple's charitable foundation, Madonna Deiani, stepped down after a
30
00:01:50.920 --> 00:01:53.640
year and a half at Archwell that same month. Harry
31
00:01:53.640 --> 00:01:55.959
will not attend the funeral of his uncle, Robert Fellows,
32
00:01:55.959 --> 00:01:57.879
who passed away on July twenty ninth.
33
00:01:57.840 --> 00:02:00.239
The age of eighty two. Fellows, the husban and of
34
00:02:00.280 --> 00:02:04.400
Princess Diana's sister, Lady Jane, had a distinguished career serving
35
00:02:04.439 --> 00:02:07.719
Queen Elizabeth the Second as her private secretary. Despite the
36
00:02:07.760 --> 00:02:11.039
familial connection, Harry's absence from the funerals reportedly due to
37
00:02:11.039 --> 00:02:15.360
ongoing security concerns in the UK. Harry's concerns about his
38
00:02:15.400 --> 00:02:18.159
safety in the UK have been well documented, and he
39
00:02:18.199 --> 00:02:21.360
has expressed reluctance to bring his wife, Megan Markel back
40
00:02:21.400 --> 00:02:23.879
to the country due to these fears. The couple is
41
00:02:23.879 --> 00:02:27.599
currently focusing on their visit to Columbia, which they apparently
42
00:02:27.639 --> 00:02:30.759
find safer than London. A friend of Harry's told The
43
00:02:30.840 --> 00:02:33.199
Daily Beast, it's just all very sad. The idea that
44
00:02:33.199 --> 00:02:35.360
he wouldn't be there to support Jane and her grief
45
00:02:35.639 --> 00:02:39.840
would have been unimaginable a few years ago. Harry and
46
00:02:39.879 --> 00:02:42.479
Megan are reportedly set up to be manipulated during their
47
00:02:42.560 --> 00:02:46.000
upcoming tour of Columbia, as allegation's surface that the visit
48
00:02:46.039 --> 00:02:49.639
is intended to divert attentionent from political scandals plaguing the country.
49
00:02:50.280 --> 00:02:52.280
Harry and Meghan are said to arrive in Columbia on
50
00:02:52.360 --> 00:02:55.080
Thursday for a four day tour invited by the country's
51
00:02:55.159 --> 00:02:59.000
Vice president, friend C. M. Marqures. According to the authorities,
52
00:02:59.039 --> 00:03:01.319
the couple will engage with leaders, youth and women who
53
00:03:01.360 --> 00:03:05.080
embody the aspirations and voices of Colombians committed to progress
54
00:03:05.319 --> 00:03:09.159
while also experiencing the vibrant locations of Bogatar, cut Hena
55
00:03:09.199 --> 00:03:12.479
and Keli. However, concerns have been raised that Sussexes are
56
00:03:12.479 --> 00:03:15.159
being used as political pawns by the left wing government,
57
00:03:15.599 --> 00:03:19.159
which has been embroiled in corruption scandals. A prominent lawyer
58
00:03:19.159 --> 00:03:22.080
in Bogata told The Mail on Sunday, I'm sure Megan
59
00:03:22.120 --> 00:03:24.759
and Harry meanwhile, but everyone here is talking about how
60
00:03:24.840 --> 00:03:28.599
obviously they are being manipulated. Of course, their star power
61
00:03:28.599 --> 00:03:30.639
will be used to bring attention to poor people in
62
00:03:30.680 --> 00:03:33.800
certain areas of culture in Colombia. But the reality is
63
00:03:33.840 --> 00:03:36.680
the Colombian government has been drowning in scandals since it
64
00:03:36.759 --> 00:03:39.800
came in two years ago. They need something to appease
65
00:03:39.840 --> 00:03:43.240
people at home and make them look good abroad. Security
66
00:03:43.240 --> 00:03:46.240
concerns are high in Columbia, with UK government travel advice
67
00:03:46.400 --> 00:03:50.599
warning of potential terrorist attacks, kidnappings by armed groups, and
68
00:03:50.639 --> 00:03:54.599
the ongoing conflict in Cocaine turf wars. The US government
69
00:03:54.680 --> 00:03:58.240
classifies Columbia as a Level three or Orange risk, advising
70
00:03:58.280 --> 00:04:02.319
travelers to reconsider travel due to crime and terrorism. That's said, apparently,
71
00:04:02.360 --> 00:04:06.680
some believe it's safer than Bow. Moral Francier Marquez, who
72
00:04:06.759 --> 00:04:11.520
invited the Sussexes, has faced several assassination attempts, leading to
73
00:04:11.599 --> 00:04:14.439
increased security measures, including the use of a black Hawk
74
00:04:14.479 --> 00:04:18.720
helicopter for her commute. Marquez has defended these measures, pointing
75
00:04:18.720 --> 00:04:22.240
to the dangers she faces. On Sunday, King Charles was
76
00:04:22.279 --> 00:04:25.240
seen making a dangerous drive through Scotland to attend a church.
77
00:04:25.600 --> 00:04:28.279
The risk loving monarch drove himself to church with the
78
00:04:28.560 --> 00:04:31.839
equally thrill seeking Queen Camilla in the passenger's seat. At
79
00:04:31.920 --> 00:04:34.680
least one photo was taken by the invasive paparazzi, which
80
00:04:34.800 --> 00:04:38.439
showed Camilla waving to onlookers stunningly. A source told Okay,
81
00:04:38.639 --> 00:04:40.720
Meghan is debating whether to bring the children with her,
82
00:04:40.720 --> 00:04:43.519
as she feels they're old enough, especially Archie, to enjoy
83
00:04:43.560 --> 00:04:45.839
a trip like this and meet people from different cultures.
84
00:04:46.279 --> 00:04:48.800
She's well aware that it would bring extra attention and
85
00:04:48.839 --> 00:04:50.360
that if the four of them are pictured on the
86
00:04:50.399 --> 00:04:54.360
tour it again adds to their brand. Angel Eleven told
87
00:04:54.399 --> 00:04:57.759
gb News it doesn't look good. They aren't representing the royals,
88
00:04:58.040 --> 00:05:01.879
but they are trying to. They break themselves away completely.
89
00:05:02.240 --> 00:05:04.600
They don't have the right to do this, it will
90
00:05:04.600 --> 00:05:07.439
be very annoying for the King and infuriating for William.
91
00:05:07.920 --> 00:05:09.360
I think they are going to do it because they
92
00:05:09.399 --> 00:05:11.839
will stay in a four figures some room. But I
93
00:05:11.879 --> 00:05:15.720
think it's impossible. The butt is Sophie Wessex went to
94
00:05:15.879 --> 00:05:19.000
meet these same woman Meghan is meeting the Vice President.
95
00:05:19.319 --> 00:05:21.439
She spoke about women not treated well and went to
96
00:05:21.480 --> 00:05:23.879
look at what could be done. I was astonished when
97
00:05:23.920 --> 00:05:25.720
I read that, because she is close to the royal
98
00:05:25.720 --> 00:05:27.800
family and they don't seem to mind her doing it.
99
00:05:28.199 --> 00:05:29.920
So it can't be as bad out there as what
100
00:05:30.000 --> 00:05:34.399
is being made out, but it's still dangerous. Royle likes by.
101
00:05:34.439 --> 00:05:36.800
Tom Quinn told The Mirror there was little chance of
102
00:05:36.839 --> 00:05:40.040
Harry being invited to bow Morral this year. Quinn said,
103
00:05:40.279 --> 00:05:42.279
with kath and Charles in a difficult place, the last
104
00:05:42.319 --> 00:05:45.000
thing the family needs is Harry a bow moral. Everyone
105
00:05:45.040 --> 00:05:47.360
knows that it couldn't be done without also inviting Meghan,
106
00:05:47.480 --> 00:05:50.160
and that's a step too far. Meghan has always been
107
00:05:50.160 --> 00:05:52.639
seen as the main driving force behind Harry's public attacks
108
00:05:52.639 --> 00:05:55.360
on the family. William and Charles know that inviting Harry
109
00:05:55.439 --> 00:05:58.040
without Meghan is just to give Harry another subject for
110
00:05:58.079 --> 00:06:02.279
the sequel to Spare that Harry is riding. Megan has
111
00:06:02.279 --> 00:06:05.000
always been seen as the main driving force behind Harry's
112
00:06:05.000 --> 00:06:07.680
public attacks on the family. William and Charles know that
113
00:06:07.759 --> 00:06:11.040
inviting Harry without Meghan is just to give Harry another
114
00:06:11.120 --> 00:06:13.920
subject for the sequel to Spare that Harry is writing
115

Palace intriger we rat back. Sophie was out being fabulous,
116
00:06:21.839 --> 00:06:23.560
this being the kind of story that normally would go
117
00:06:23.560 --> 00:06:26.360
to Kate soph He visited Guernsey ahead of a small
118
00:06:26.399 --> 00:06:30.319
ship's race. Joshua, described by the BBC as a man
119
00:06:30.360 --> 00:06:33.319
with curly brown hair, shaved sides, brown beard, smiling with
120
00:06:33.360 --> 00:06:35.720
blue eyes, wearing a blue shirt and a small black
121
00:06:35.759 --> 00:06:37.959
life vest, said it was an honor to have the
122
00:06:38.040 --> 00:06:40.959
Duchess on the boat. He said, she really got involved
123
00:06:41.040 --> 00:06:43.120
straight away. I'm honored to have her on the boat
124
00:06:43.160 --> 00:06:46.759
and show her what the charity does. Everyone that she
125
00:06:46.879 --> 00:06:49.360
chatted to and talked to was amazing. Her Royal Highness
126
00:06:49.399 --> 00:06:51.240
was asking us what we do on the boat, what
127
00:06:51.279 --> 00:06:54.680
how long term plans were. Lauren mackenzie added, very cool
128
00:06:54.759 --> 00:06:57.199
to meet the Duchess. She said. We took her out,
129
00:06:57.480 --> 00:06:59.600
we got sailings. She had a little helm and had
130
00:06:59.639 --> 00:07:02.000
a little chat to her, which was nice. She was
131
00:07:02.000 --> 00:07:03.920
steering the boat for a while, doing some of the
132
