The Duke and Duchess of Sussex and the Prince and Princess of Wales viewed tributes and undertook a walkabout at Windsor this evening. It is a rare sight many never expected to see -- a show of unity in honour of Her Majesty. I have a great deal of news and updates to share but just wanted to post several videos first.
Prince William and Princess Kate, the new Prince and Princess of Wales, and the Duke and Duchess of Sussex have arrived at Windsor to greet crowds of well-wishers outside Windsor Castle.

I will have a full post shortly with details of funeral arrangements and the day's events.
Thanks Charlotte. I am so moved to see them zinsi and wish that this unity continues. Really, each of them must make an effort to live in harmony from now on. They must understand that only their unity can put an end to all this outpouring of hatred. Really it's good to see lzs like that๐
ReplyDeleteGoodness! That is not a sight I thought I'd see.
ReplyDeleteI forgot Charlotte to say that I feel your great happiness to see them reunited in this way and I share it too. It's not easy to see people we like in conflict and when these 4 show us how they are welded it does us a lot of good.
ReplyDeleteYou couldn't have summed up my sentiments more aptly Ghilou.
DeleteThank you for expressing this so well, Gilou.
DeleteWhat a poignant surprise. I'm glad the brothers came together publicly; I am sure the Queen would be proud they did this. I do feel sorry for the princes; I would not like to grieve in public. But I understand their grief is shared with a nation. I wish W&K and H&M well during this time, and hope the UK press shows some restraint vs. continuing mean-spirited narratives. Thanks for the quick post, Charlotte! -op
ReplyDelete@Ghilou 19:11: I do wish that were true. However, it's my observation that Camp Hatred is firmly entrenched and has ringleaders with significant access to and clout in the media and press. No action (or even absence of action) will go without vitriol from the Haters. It's an unfortunate element of public discourse now-a-days, and not only in regards to the Royal Family.

Yes it's unfortunately true Philly but thank God the majority of the public is not fooled. Pray that these 4 young people learn lessons and choose to impose harmony by remaining united.
DeleteI agree.
Delete@Philly 19:58, I agree with you completely. All I can do is applaud Meghan for her apparent serenity. In the video where she is hugging the woman, just down the line is another woman who is clearly avoiding contact with Meghan. She shakes all the hands extended towards her. And moves on gracefully.

Despite everything these miserable little tabloids would have us believe, the British people love Meghan very much. When I go to the United Kingdom I am always touched by all the compassion and understanding they have for Meghan judging that her integration was not well managed by the royal family because Meghan unlike the other sisters-in-law came with so much of "weaknesses" (color, nationality, blackmail on the part of his family etc etc) which have been well exploited by the haters. But what a pleasure to see that Meghan takes it upon herself and has been above all this nastiness.
ReplyDelete@Ghilou 19:58, Well said: Meghan rises above. Again and again.
DeleteRenee
It absolutly warms my heart to see these two couples working together again. The late Queen would be proud.
ReplyDeleteI think Charles had some part in this, and that would be a very good thing. William seemed very pleasant, pointing out things to Harry and Meghan at one point. I won't analyze it further, but it is excellent to do this. I'm glad William offered and I'm glad Harry accepted. Sometimes you have to act right before all your feelings get onboard, and this is a good and long overdue start. I think Meghan being from California is more disliked than being biracial -- I live in Texas and people here seem to hate Californians. Kate is absolutely perfect for her role; Meghan is perfect for her different role. They should be celebrating that the two women are in their perfect roles! :) But back to today -- I truly did not think I'd see it judging by recent events, so kudos to William.
ReplyDeleteThe masthead on the HRH Duchess Kate blog is beautiful and extremely fitting for the current solemn affairs. Just wondering why it wasn't also on this blog - it seems as though it would help to remind us all that our focus right now is (rightly) on Her Majesty, Queen Elizabeth (May she rest in peace).
ReplyDeleteThank you for reminding me. I had intended to do so and was sidetracked. It would be most appropriate.
DeleteI love Megan and think she and Harry are a beautiful couple. I love both of them.
