Royal Expert Says Prince Harry Could Return - But Not With Meghan

0:03 Calorogus Shark Media. Hello and welcome to Palace Intrigue Game your host Mark Francis. Royal biographer Tom Bauer says Prince Harry could in theory find a route back into the Royal fold, but only if he came back alone. Speaking on The Royalist Podcast, Bauer argued there may be a world in which Harry could be given a role and brought back into the institution, but said that idea falls apart as long as Meghan remains in the picture. Bauer, whose book Betrayal powered a seat in the fight for the future of the Royal Family, has already stirred a controversy, has long taken a hard line on the Sussexes. On the podcast, host Tom Sykes raised the argument also floated by Tina Brown, that the Royal Family might be better off bringing Harry and Meghan back into a limited international role rather than keeping them at arm's length. Baoer was blunt.

0:54 I think Harry would like that solution, he said, but Meghan definitely would not want to live in London. She doesn't want to be part of Britain. She wants to be a star in California. So I think that as long as they're married. This is a completely untenable solution. Bauer also said it's only a recipe for more and more sensational danger because Megan would always look for a way to complain. She can't be satisfied. She can't she doesn't want to be part of the British royal family. He went on to suggest that even if some kind of return were attempted, the British public would not be receptive. Referring to Tina Brown's view, Baoer said she did not fully grasp the mood in Britain, adding even if she groveled, they'd feel, well, you're not growfling enough. They're really angry with her. So I don't believe that is the solution.

1:36 Whatever you do with the Sussexes, you couldn't rely on them to be discreet and silent and obediate for very long because of what their own needs. Selfishness in the end would trump everything that the Windsors might offer them. And that is the problem. There's no easy solution, if there is a solution at all. The trouble really is that both King Charles and Prince William haven't found a way to neutralize the danger and I don't know if there is a way that's the problem. Radar Online reported the Prince Harry and Meghan Mikel appeared to have a tense exchange during the recent trip to Jordan, with the outlet suggesting the moment reflected deeper strain behind the scenes. The couple had traveled to the country for a two day visit focused on global health and humanitarian work, including an appearance at the Zatari refugee camp near a Man and a discussion forum hosted by the World Health Organization.

2:25 According to the report, one inside a claim that during a football activity at the youth center, the pair exchanged a few sharp words. For a brief moment, Harry and Meghan exchanged intense words, Saw said. Whether it was the busy forty eight hour schedule or another matter can't be known, but the exchange raised eyebrows. A representative for the Sussex's denied there was any confrontation during the trip or any trouble in the marriage. Still, the report claims Meghan quickly shifted back into public facing mode after the moment, with one source alleging this was Megan's show. Harry looked as if it was just along for the ride. Radar also suggests Meghan used the trip to strength and international connections, particularly during the WHO event, where the report says she was speaking with United Nations representatives. One source claimed that Megan has long had ambitions in that direction, saying there were several UN representatives at the WHO forum and she seemed keen to network, so she wasn't going to let any personal issues get in the way. In the eyepaper, James Ball writes producing a Netflix drama about Polo was hardly a clean break from British aristocracy. He tells us it doesn't necessarily feel like television or even entertainment is truly their route to happiness. They certainly seem to have struggled to make audiences happy with Love Meghan, the lifestyle show the couple made for Netflix, was supposed to be about the joys of homey domesticity, but guest segments often looked like hostage videos. While the show wasn't actually painful to watch, it was painfully boring. Harry's biggest contribution to the couple's old Netflix deal, apart from his Invictor's Game series,

3:57 was a documentary about Polo, in which he Barre featured and which sunk without a trace. Despite this, Netflix and the Sussexes alike are returning to the world of Polo, this time as a drama which the former Royals will executive produce. Is this what starting afresh looks like? Though? Really, this whole phase of Harry and Meghan's life was supposed to be about carving out an income and an identity free of the British Royal family. Polo is never going to mark a clean break from the British aristocracy, even if the show is somehow a triumph heated rivalry after all, showed audiences combined to TV dramas about sports they know and care nothing of if the plot is right. But even if this show somehow breaks the trend of the Sussex's subpar television run, it isn't going to do anything to carve out an independent identity for them. Polo is the stuff of windsor not Montecito. The Sussexes are rapidly getting caught in the same trap that seems to catch anyone cut a drift of the British royal family, used to a certain lifestyle and in need of the funds to sustain it. They have to find an income. They have to find that all anyone who wants to finance them is only interested in their connection to the institution they have just left. The more they try to define themselves on their own terms, the more it turns out their identity is just semi detached. British Royalty More Palace in just a moment, Buckingham Palace has announced a series of garden parties to be held this summer at both Buckingham Palace and the Palace of holyrood House. Three events are scheduled to take place in London, with a fourth

5:28 to be held in Edinburgh. The parties are intended to recognize frontline workers from across the UK, with the first event of the season placing particular emphasis on their contribution. The gatherings will celebrate individuals who serve their communities through volunteering, charitable work and roles in the emergency services. The London garden parties are set to take place on May sixth, eighth, and twelfth, while the event Palace of Holyrood House in Edinburgh will be held on June thirtieth. In addition to the main events, two themed garden parties will also take place over the summer. One will mark the fiftieth anniversary of the King's trial, while the other will be the annual Not Forgotten Association Guarden Party, both hosted at Buckingham Palace. Details which members of the royal family will attend or expected to be confirmed on the day of each event.

6:13 The announcement comes amid reports that Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie may not attend Royal Ascot this year. One source said, I've spoken to my friend who works at ASCOT and they said the goals have been told they can't be there this year. Beatrice has taken at the hardest. She's been completely blindsided by all of this. A separate source added Ascot is out of the question and claimed the royals have been told they can't be photographed with the girls for the rest of the year. The King is facing criticism from some commentators after a series of royal honors were revoked, prompting debate about the value of the system. According to notices published in the UK's official public record, The Gazette, the King has ordered the removal of several honors from recipients of the Order of the British Empire in recent weeks. Such removals typically occur when recipients have been convicted of crimes, found guilty of misconduct, or disciplined by professional regulators. Among those stripped of an honor is former Scotland rugby player Stuart Hogg, whose MB was provoked after he admitted to abusive behavior towards his estranged wife, Gillian.

7:15 The formal noticed states the King has directed that the appointment of Stuart William Hogg to be a Member of the Civil Division of the Most Excellent Order of the British Empire, dated thirtieth December twenty twenty three, shall be canceled and annulled, and that his name shall be raised from the Register of the said Order. Hogg had received the honor of the twenty twenty four New Year's Honors for services to rugby. He previously played for Glasgow Warriors, earned more than one hundred caps for Scotland, and toured three times with the British and Irish Lions. Several other individuals have also had their honors removed following criminal convictions or disciplinary rulings. Ian Ashbold, who received an MB in twenty sixteen, lost the award after a criminal conviction. Lloyd Hamilton, awarded an MBE in twenty eleven, also had his honor revoked following a conviction. Angela Middleton's twenty nineteen MB was annulled after officials concluded she had brought the honours system into disrepute. Nigel O'Connor, who received an MBE in twenty fifteen, and Tony Riley, awarded an OBE in twenty eleven, both lost their honors following professional censure. Paul Allen Rose, founder of Barrows Al Sanctuary in Cumbria, had his MB removed after he was convicted of animal welfare offenses. Rose was sentenced in May twenty twenty four off depleting guilty to two counts of causing unnecessarily suffering to a protected animal and one count of failing to insure animal welfare under the Animal Welfare Act. Other recipients whose honors were revoked included Annat Shah, who had received an OBE in twenty twenty,

8:47 and Graham Trueheller, who had been awarded an MB in twenty ten. Both lost their distinctions after findings that their conduct brought the honors system into disrepute. Some Royal observers say. The number of removals sparked discussion about the meaning and value of such awards. One source familiar with the honor system said, when you see this many titles being canceled in such a short time, it inevitably leads some people to ask whether the whole system begins to look a bit meaningless.
