00:00:03.200 --> 00:00:14.320
Calaruga Shark Media, Hello and welcome Toro Palace injury Aga

2
00:00:14.400 --> 00:00:16.960
a'm your host mark for answers. It has been reported

3
00:00:16.960 --> 00:00:19.760
that US President Donald Trump may soon be invited to

4
00:00:19.800 --> 00:00:24.280
spend time at Bawmoral Castle alongside King Charles. The prospect

5
00:00:24.280 --> 00:00:28.079
arises as Prime Minister Kiir Starmer travels to the United

6
00:00:28.079 --> 00:00:30.120
States this week, a journey that could pave the way

7
00:00:30.160 --> 00:00:34.079
for an invitation to be extended. Historically, mister Trump has

8
00:00:34.119 --> 00:00:37.079
been hosted at both Buckingham Palace and Windsor Castle, but

9
00:00:37.119 --> 00:00:40.600
a sojourner bow Moral is now emerging as the obvious choice,

10
00:00:41.079 --> 00:00:44.119
owing to his Scottish heritage and the proximity of his

11
00:00:44.200 --> 00:00:48.159
golf course. The government sources noted Balmorral, the cherished summer

12
00:00:48.200 --> 00:00:52.079
retreat where the monarch traditionally resides, often in the company

13
00:00:52.079 --> 00:00:54.520
of the extended royal family, has rarely played host to

14
00:00:54.719 --> 00:00:59.359
US presidents. In fact, only one previous American leader, Dwight D. Eisenhower,

15
00:00:59.560 --> 00:01:02.399
visited the castle in August of nineteen fifty nine, when

16
00:01:02.399 --> 00:01:04.959
he accompanied Queen Elizabeth the Second and former Prime Minister

17
00:01:05.040 --> 00:01:08.760
Harold McMillan. The report, initially published by the Son suggests

18
00:01:08.799 --> 00:01:11.760
that the invitation could be conveyed shortly after mister Starmer's

19
00:01:11.840 --> 00:01:14.599
arrival at the Oval Office for talks with mister Trump.

20
00:01:15.079 --> 00:01:18.480
A Whitehall insider remarked, he's already been to Windsor and

21
00:01:18.599 --> 00:01:22.280
Buckingham Palace, so Balmoral is being talked about. Everyone knows

22
00:01:22.359 --> 00:01:26.359
he loves Scotland and it's near his golf course. In

23
00:01:26.400 --> 00:01:28.680
related developments, The Mirror has indicated that the King and

24
00:01:28.719 --> 00:01:30.439
Queen are preparing for what is said to be the

25
00:01:30.439 --> 00:01:34.239
most extensive royal tour of their reign, a veritable charm

26
00:01:34.280 --> 00:01:37.599
offensive across the United States and Canada. The tour, which

27
00:01:37.599 --> 00:01:40.560
would mark King Charles's first visit to Canada as monarch,

28
00:01:40.799 --> 00:01:44.680
is viewed as an opportunity to bolster diplomatic ties at

29
00:01:44.680 --> 00:01:46.959
a time when the United States is on the cusp

30
00:01:47.159 --> 00:01:50.439
of celebrating the two hundred and fiftieth anniversary of American

31
00:01:50.480 --> 00:01:54.840
independence in twenty twenty six. Preliminary discussions between governments are

32
00:01:54.879 --> 00:01:59.640
already under way, with an official invitation from Washington expected imminently.

33
00:02:00.120 --> 00:02:02.359
The Mirror further suggests that the North American tours are

34
00:02:02.400 --> 00:02:05.159
likely to be scheduled for the spring of next year. However,

35
00:02:05.280 --> 00:02:07.840
in light of the King's ongoing cancer treatment, A visit

36
00:02:07.879 --> 00:02:10.400
by the Prince and Princess of Wales is being considered

37
00:02:10.439 --> 00:02:14.000
as a contingency, although the prevailing preference is to host

38
00:02:14.080 --> 00:02:17.840
their majesties themselves. It is noteworthy that this would be

39
00:02:17.879 --> 00:02:20.319
the first time a British monarch visits the United States

40
00:02:20.360 --> 00:02:22.919
since two thousand and seven, when the late Queen Elizabeth

41
00:02:22.960 --> 00:02:26.479
undertook one of her five royal tours. As Prince of Wales,

42
00:02:26.599 --> 00:02:29.439
King Charles made more than twenty official visits to the US,

43
00:02:29.919 --> 00:02:34.199
underscoring his long standing connection with the nation. A government

44
00:02:34.240 --> 00:02:37.439
source elaborated on the significance of the forthcoming tour, stating

45
00:02:37.879 --> 00:02:40.240
this will undoubtedly be the biggest tour of the King's

46
00:02:40.280 --> 00:02:43.439
reign so far, a huge undertaking for a British monarch

47
00:02:43.520 --> 00:02:46.280
to be hosted in the United States. Americans love the

48
00:02:46.280 --> 00:02:49.439
British royal family and it is a great opportunity for

49
00:02:49.520 --> 00:02:52.680
both sides to reaffirm the special relationship in such an

50
00:02:52.680 --> 00:02:55.960
important and historic year for the US. The King has

51
00:02:56.000 --> 00:02:59.039
been especially keen to travel to Canada, a country and

52
00:02:59.120 --> 00:03:02.159
people he holds so much affection for. It will be

53
00:03:02.199 --> 00:03:06.639
a charm offensive on both science yet Buckingham Palace remains

54
00:03:06.680 --> 00:03:09.439
decidedly tight lipped on the specifics of these plans, with

55
00:03:09.800 --> 00:03:13.000
one palace source observing there are new current dates in

56
00:03:13.039 --> 00:03:15.680
the diary for their majesties to tour either Canada or

57
00:03:15.719 --> 00:03:20.080
the USA, or active palace planning taking place for either option.

58
00:03:22.560 --> 00:03:24.680
Royal expert Jenny Bond has spoke to The Mirror about

59
00:03:24.680 --> 00:03:26.919
Harry and Meghan now sharing pictures of their children in

60
00:03:26.919 --> 00:03:30.639
the lead up to Meghan's Netflix show. She said they

61
00:03:30.639 --> 00:03:33.919
are clearly fiercely protective of their children, and I think

62
00:03:34.039 --> 00:03:36.960
much of that stems from Harry's experience of having cameras

63
00:03:37.000 --> 00:03:38.960
trained on him when he was a little boy and

64
00:03:39.120 --> 00:03:42.199
ever since. He showed his contempt for the cameras when

65
00:03:42.240 --> 00:03:45.080
he was very young sticking his tin. He showed his

66
00:03:45.120 --> 00:03:47.879
contempt for the cameras when he was very young, sticking

67
00:03:47.919 --> 00:03:49.479
his tongue out as he sat in the back of

68
00:03:49.479 --> 00:03:51.520
a car with his mother. She told him to stop

69
00:03:51.520 --> 00:03:54.879
it very quickly. Of course, seeing only glimpses of them

70
00:03:54.919 --> 00:03:57.479
makes them even more interesting to the public, and it

71
00:03:57.520 --> 00:04:00.280
brings extra attention to whichever video they are a peer

72
00:04:00.360 --> 00:04:03.879
in which is commercially valuable. Sooner or later, they are

73
00:04:03.879 --> 00:04:06.800
bound to release pictures of the children. Otherwise there's a

74
00:04:06.800 --> 00:04:09.319
real danger that the paparazzi will follow them until they

75
00:04:09.439 --> 00:04:11.840
get what they want in the hope that a newspaper

76
00:04:11.919 --> 00:04:14.199
or magazine somewhere in the world will buy the pictures.

77
00:04:15.000 --> 00:04:17.839
Some Royal watches are shocked that Harry would allow the photos.

78
00:04:18.120 --> 00:04:21.560
Royal expert Duncan Larkholm tells Okay Magazine. Being a Royal

79
00:04:21.639 --> 00:04:24.000
isn't like being a celebrity. You're stuck with it, and

80
00:04:24.040 --> 00:04:26.800
I think Harry struggles to accept his kids are to

81
00:04:26.800 --> 00:04:31.199
some extent public property because they're royal. He adds that

82
00:04:31.279 --> 00:04:34.480
it's an almost impossible task to keep them out of

83
00:04:34.480 --> 00:04:38.160
the limelight forever. Royal expert Jack Royston tells his son,

84
00:04:38.560 --> 00:04:40.439
I still cannot make out for the life of me

85
00:04:40.560 --> 00:04:43.439
why Megan didn't do a Suit's reboot. Acting is what

86
00:04:43.639 --> 00:04:47.000
first forged a relationship between Megan and the American people.

87
00:04:47.439 --> 00:04:50.439
It's been so successful and loved again. I cannot work

88
00:04:50.480 --> 00:04:52.399
out for the life of me why she didn't just

89
00:04:52.519 --> 00:04:56.560
do a Suits relaunch. It's a crazy decision. Reality TV

90
00:04:56.680 --> 00:04:59.920
star Bethany Frankel said, I think the reason Megan can't

91
00:05:00.079 --> 00:05:02.160
win for losing is that there is a lack of

92
00:05:02.279 --> 00:05:05.839
identity and understanding as to exactly who she is to

93
00:05:05.920 --> 00:05:09.399
the audience. In a profile piece about Greg Gutfield, the

94
00:05:09.439 --> 00:05:11.839
late night host on Fox News, Greg mentioned Megan by

95
00:05:11.879 --> 00:05:14.680
saying nobody likes a person less than the person who's

96
00:05:14.680 --> 00:05:17.879
obvious about their thirst for status. She decided that she

97
00:05:18.040 --> 00:05:20.639
was going to just walk into Oprah's world like I'm

98
00:05:20.680 --> 00:05:23.000
going to be a lifestyle guru. I don't care who

99
00:05:23.040 --> 00:05:25.680
you are. You hate people who cut in line. She'd

100
00:05:25.720 --> 00:05:30.879
cut in line. Fox News host Raymond Arroyo was more harsh, saying,

101
00:05:31.360 --> 00:05:33.040
as Ever is already the name of a New York

102
00:05:33.079 --> 00:05:36.959
based clothing line in existence since twenty fifteen. It's unbelievable.

103
00:05:37.040 --> 00:05:40.800
Her logo isn't even original. The Duchess of Sussex can't

104
00:05:40.839 --> 00:05:44.160
help create anything that doesn't suck X. There's the only

105
00:05:44.199 --> 00:05:47.079
thing left for her to launch, a Montecito consignment store.

106
00:05:47.160 --> 00:05:51.720
Call has been. Arroyo also mentioned the upcoming Netflix show

107
00:05:51.959 --> 00:05:53.759
She's Going to Cook. The only thing not on the

108
00:05:53.759 --> 00:05:56.639
menu was humble pie. Apparently she should do something on

109
00:05:56.680 --> 00:06:00.959
family relations and how to destroy them intrigua, but right back,

110
00:06:04.600 --> 00:06:07.519
Sarah Ferguson is reportedly in talks with producers of ITV's

111
00:06:07.639 --> 00:06:11.879
Loose Women to join their illustrious presenter lineup. Sources reveal

112
00:06:11.920 --> 00:06:14.560
the proceedings have advanced to the stage where Fergie is

113
00:06:14.600 --> 00:06:17.120
set to embark in a full trial week on the show.

114
00:06:17.480 --> 00:06:20.079
A source told The Mail Sarah is finding a way

115
00:06:20.120 --> 00:06:23.040
to balance a potentially well paid presenting job with her

116
00:06:23.120 --> 00:06:25.879
charity commitments and her main job as an author. She

117
00:06:25.959 --> 00:06:27.839
has been told there will be a chair with her

118
00:06:27.920 --> 00:06:29.680
name on it whenever she is ready to become a

119
00:06:29.680 --> 00:06:33.399
full time Loose Woman. The former royal, who has previously

120
00:06:33.439 --> 00:06:35.800
appeared as a special guest on Loose Women, as also

121
00:06:35.879 --> 00:06:40.000
forged a close bond with Coronation Street actress Sally Dinovore,

122
00:06:40.560 --> 00:06:43.519
sharing a mutual understanding born of their own battles with

123
00:06:43.560 --> 00:06:47.639
breast cancer. In later moments, even Christine Lampard has chimed

124
00:06:47.639 --> 00:06:50.439
in with a humorous quip suggesting that Sarah might be

125
00:06:50.600 --> 00:06:53.959
just the queen that Love Island's Joey has been searching for.
