00:00:03.200 --> 00:00:15.000
Calorogus Shark Media. Hello and welcome to Palace Intrigue. I
2
00:00:15.000 --> 00:00:18.800
am your host, Mark Francis. Former Royal butler Paul Burrell
3
00:00:18.879 --> 00:00:22.079
has dismissed speculation of a divorce between Prince Harry and
4
00:00:22.160 --> 00:00:26.320
Megan Markel, stating that they're shared financial ambitions ensure their
5
00:00:26.480 --> 00:00:30.519
continued partnership. Burell said, I personally think there are no
6
00:00:30.640 --> 00:00:34.000
signs of divorce because Harry would lose too much. I
7
00:00:34.039 --> 00:00:36.439
think Meghan and Harry have a common goal to make
8
00:00:36.479 --> 00:00:39.320
themselves as rich as possible in as short a time
9
00:00:39.359 --> 00:00:42.119
as possible. I think that balance works together for the
10
00:00:42.159 --> 00:00:45.039
sake of their brand, their marriage. It's all the same thing.
11
00:00:45.280 --> 00:00:48.600
I think Meghan actually retains a fascination for lots of people.
12
00:00:49.479 --> 00:00:52.320
Burell also reflected on what he perceives as a departure
13
00:00:52.320 --> 00:00:54.679
from the values instilled in Harry by his late mother,
14
00:00:54.719 --> 00:00:58.280
Princess Diana. Harry and Meghan have a very privileged lifestyle.
15
00:00:58.399 --> 00:01:01.759
Harry has always had that, Megan has long aspired for it,
16
00:01:02.079 --> 00:01:05.040
but now they share that lifestyle. I always circled back
17
00:01:05.040 --> 00:01:06.959
to the fact that Harry's mother taught him long ago
18
00:01:07.319 --> 00:01:10.319
that the price for a privileged lifestyle is public service.
19
00:01:10.879 --> 00:01:13.120
Harry seems to have forgotten this lesson now and he
20
00:01:13.159 --> 00:01:17.040
lives a celebrity Hollywood lifestyle that's totally different from his
21
00:01:17.280 --> 00:01:21.200
royal one. King Charles is reportedly considering a significant shift
22
00:01:21.239 --> 00:01:23.920
in the lineup of working royals, with the possibility of
23
00:01:23.920 --> 00:01:28.480
bringing Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie into official duties. Royal
24
00:01:28.519 --> 00:01:31.239
expert Katie Nickel told the Son, when you look at
25
00:01:31.239 --> 00:01:35.239
Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie, they've been very much encouraged to
26
00:01:35.280 --> 00:01:38.200
go and live independent lives of the Royal family, to
27
00:01:38.280 --> 00:01:41.280
earn their own living, not to be dependent on taxpayer
28
00:01:41.359 --> 00:01:44.519
funded security, not to be a drain, I suppose, on
29
00:01:44.560 --> 00:01:46.879
the public purse. So it would be a step in
30
00:01:46.920 --> 00:01:50.519
a different direction. Nicol noted that Beatrice's presence at the
31
00:01:50.640 --> 00:01:54.000
royal family's Christmas Day gathering was a notable sign. I
32
00:01:54.040 --> 00:01:56.560
think possibly it is being looked at. I mean, Princess
33
00:01:56.599 --> 00:01:59.120
Beatrice was there on Christmas Day. That was a sort
34
00:01:59.120 --> 00:02:01.519
of very visible pres presence for her. They're sort of
35
00:02:01.560 --> 00:02:03.959
welcoming her back into the royal fold. I know that
36
00:02:03.959 --> 00:02:06.519
both Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie are keen to do some
37
00:02:06.680 --> 00:02:10.000
royal work around their jobs and their home lives. If
38
00:02:10.000 --> 00:02:12.879
such a move materializes, it would mark a departure from
39
00:02:12.960 --> 00:02:16.680
King Charles's initial vision of a slimmed down monarchy, one
40
00:02:16.719 --> 00:02:19.520
that saw Beatrice and Eugenie remain outside the core group
41
00:02:19.560 --> 00:02:24.400
of working royals. However, with fewer senior royals available for engagements,
42
00:02:24.599 --> 00:02:29.360
their involvement they become a practical necessity. Prince Harry is
43
00:02:29.400 --> 00:02:32.280
reportedly considering a hybrid relationship with King Charles and the
44
00:02:32.280 --> 00:02:34.639
rest of the royal family as Meghan Michael's influence in
45
00:02:34.680 --> 00:02:38.520
their marriage continues to grow. According to royal expert Richard
46
00:02:38.520 --> 00:02:42.479
Fitzwilliams speaking to Fox News, Harry is in exile. He
47
00:02:42.560 --> 00:02:45.639
chose it's lonely and he will undoubtedly miss his friends
48
00:02:45.639 --> 00:02:48.560
and family. There is no sign whatsoever the reft in
49
00:02:48.599 --> 00:02:51.639
the royal family healing. King Charles and the Prince and
50
00:02:51.680 --> 00:02:55.479
Princess of Wales have to put it mildly, other priorities.
51
00:02:55.800 --> 00:02:59.120
I think Meghan is undoubtedly the dominant person in their relationship.
52
00:02:59.439 --> 00:03:02.080
I don't he wishes they had managed to arrange a
53
00:03:02.199 --> 00:03:05.960
half in half out arrangement with the royal family, especially
54
00:03:06.000 --> 00:03:10.039
as his military links meant so much to him. Meghan
55
00:03:10.080 --> 00:03:14.159
Markle's longtime friend Lindsey Jill Roth, has penned a heartfelt
56
00:03:14.240 --> 00:03:17.080
tribute to the Duchess of Sussex in her new book
57
00:03:17.520 --> 00:03:21.520
Romances and Practicalities, A Love Story Maybe Yours In two
58
00:03:21.639 --> 00:03:25.560
hundred and fifty Questions So Long, title, Roth, who met
59
00:03:25.560 --> 00:03:29.840
Meghan at Northwestern University, included a dedication celebrating their enduring friendship,
60
00:03:30.080 --> 00:03:33.319
which he kept a secret until the book's release. Meghan
61
00:03:33.400 --> 00:03:36.719
Sussex Meg to be sisters by choice. Still thinking the
62
00:03:36.759 --> 00:03:39.439
same thing at the same time after all these years,
63
00:03:39.719 --> 00:03:42.159
no matter how many miles between us, is my favorite
64
00:03:42.199 --> 00:03:46.240
part of our unbreakable bond, Roth wrote, adding I carry
65
00:03:46.280 --> 00:03:50.120
your heart. I carry it in my heart. Meghan served
66
00:03:50.159 --> 00:03:53.800
as Roth's maid of honor. In twenty sixteen, Women at
67
00:03:53.800 --> 00:03:56.680
Home dot Com took a look at Carol Middleton's approach
68
00:03:56.719 --> 00:04:00.240
to family mill times, which brings a distinctly moral, axed,
69
00:04:00.280 --> 00:04:04.360
and inclusive vibe compared to traditional royal customs, and it
70
00:04:04.400 --> 00:04:07.280
seems to be influencing how Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and
71
00:04:07.319 --> 00:04:11.719
Prince Lewis experience family gatherings. While the royal family historically
72
00:04:11.719 --> 00:04:14.840
adheres too strict a dining etiquette, complete with separate meals
73
00:04:14.840 --> 00:04:18.680
for children until they master polite conversation. Carol encourages her
74
00:04:18.720 --> 00:04:22.000
grandchildren to join the adults at the table. Much earlier.
75
00:04:23.000 --> 00:04:25.199
Carol shared her thoughts with a telegraph in twenty eighteen,
76
00:04:25.240 --> 00:04:28.079
explaining that children should dine with adults as soon as
77
00:04:28.079 --> 00:04:30.959
they can sit up properly. She added, as a family,
78
00:04:31.040 --> 00:04:33.319
we try to have as many mills together as possible,
79
00:04:33.360 --> 00:04:36.279
because that's when you talk and have fun. For Carol,
80
00:04:36.439 --> 00:04:39.199
her kitchen in her Berkshire home is the heart of
81
00:04:39.360 --> 00:04:43.519
family life, often hosting informal kitchen suppers in a shared
82
00:04:43.560 --> 00:04:48.240
space where conversations flow freely. By contrast, Royal tradition is
83
00:04:48.279 --> 00:04:50.800
typically kept young royals at a separate table until they've
84
00:04:50.839 --> 00:04:54.680
mastered proper cutlery skills and dinner etiquette. Former Royal chef
85
00:04:54.800 --> 00:04:59.000
Darren McGrady revealed that at Sandringham Christmas celebrations, the children
86
00:04:59.040 --> 00:05:02.279
always ate in the nursery until they were old enough
87
00:05:02.319 --> 00:05:05.720
to conduct themselves properly at the dining table. Royal expert
88
00:05:05.800 --> 00:05:08.759
Ingrid Suard also noted that the Queen Elizabeth I held firm
89
00:05:08.839 --> 00:05:11.040
to this rule, though King Charles may have relaxed it
90
00:05:11.079 --> 00:05:14.639
slightly in recent years. Even so, it seems William and
91
00:05:14.680 --> 00:05:18.399
Kate have embraced elements of Carol's more casual, family focused ethos.
92
00:05:18.680 --> 00:05:21.399
Their home and the hall, which features a spacious kitchen
93
00:05:21.439 --> 00:05:25.439
with an eating area, reflects a preference for relaxed family mills.
94
00:05:25.680 --> 00:05:28.680
According to Sally Biddell Smith, author of Elizabeth the Queen,
95
00:05:29.079 --> 00:05:32.079
The Life of a Modern Monarch, The Queen once remarked
96
00:05:32.079 --> 00:05:35.040
on this during a visit, saying I can't understand why
97
00:05:35.040 --> 00:05:40.040
everybody spends their time in the kitchen. Queen Camilla's facialist
98
00:05:40.199 --> 00:05:44.279
has nothing but glowing praise, literally and figuratively for the Royal,
99
00:05:44.399 --> 00:05:48.240
calling her beautiful on both the inside and outside, revealing
100
00:05:48.240 --> 00:05:51.600
that her skin is incredibly young. Deborah Mitchell, the skincare
101
00:05:51.720 --> 00:05:54.800
expert behind Heaven Health and Beauty, has been treating Camilla
102
00:05:54.839 --> 00:05:58.120
for nearly two decades and recently received a Royal Warrant,
103
00:05:58.279 --> 00:06:01.399
an honor granted by the Queen to record trusted suppliers.
104
00:06:02.120 --> 00:06:04.040
Camilla was one of the first to try her anti
105
00:06:04.120 --> 00:06:07.279
aging b Venom products, which supposedly smooth wrinkles in a
106
00:06:07.360 --> 00:06:10.639
way that even Botox can't. The Queen is reportedly a
107
00:06:10.680 --> 00:06:14.439
dedicated fan of Mitchell's treatments and at home skincare range,
108
00:06:14.800 --> 00:06:18.959
using them religiously between appointments. Mitchell also hinted that she
109
00:06:18.959 --> 00:06:21.759
has other royal clients, including King Charles, though she'll only
110
00:06:21.800 --> 00:06:24.560
be able to say more once she secures a warrant
111
00:06:24.600 --> 00:06:31.600
from him. Pallas Intrigue will be a raback in March.
112
00:06:31.720 --> 00:06:34.480
Land Rover will pay tribute to the late Queen Elizabeth
113
00:06:34.600 --> 00:06:38.680
II with an exclusive exhibition in Miami, showcasing five iconic
114
00:06:38.800 --> 00:06:42.480
vehicles from her personal fleet. The collection will include land
115
00:06:42.560 --> 00:06:46.120
Rover Series, Defender and range Rover models used by the
116
00:06:46.160 --> 00:06:49.920
Queen during her remarkabook seventy year reign. The exhibition will
117
00:06:49.920 --> 00:06:52.839
feature several historic vehicles, including two of the earliest Royal
118
00:06:52.959 --> 00:06:56.279
land Rovers, the first land Rover Series one State Review
119
00:06:56.399 --> 00:06:59.199
vehicle and another series one owned by the royal family.
120
00:06:59.519 --> 00:07:02.040
The exhibits is set to take place on March first
121
00:07:02.079 --> 00:07:06.519
