What great timing Thomas Markle has(!) Perfect day of the year to stir up trouble(!)

Thomas Markle asks: Why can't I meet Archie? | Daily Mail Online

Thomas Markle asks: Why can't I meet Archie? Meghan Markle's father has stayed silent since she gave birth hoping, in his own words, that becoming a mother would 'mellow' her and they could heal their rift. Now in frustration, he speaks out
  • Thomas Markle feels he is being unfairly vilified and cut out of his grandson's life
  • He says has only ever seen a picture of his new grandson Archie on the internet
  • Mr Markle takes issue with Meghan's celebrity friends launching attacks on him
  • He also says Meghan's claim she paid her own way through college is untrue
  • He said: 'I always hoped that I would be as close to Meghan's child as I was to her'

I wonder how much he got paid for this story. I doubt if this made any love points with Meghan

Meghan and Harry 'speed up plans to leave Britain and consider Los Angeles' in snub to Prince Charles plans for an estate in Herefordshire

Meghan and Harry 'speed up plans to move to Los Angeles' after private jet press | Daily Mail Online

I really wonder if there is any truth to this. I would be shocked if Prince Harry let his Father and Grandmother down by moving abroad and abandoning his role within the monarchy.

Thomas is once again pouring gasoline on his relationship with his daughter and Grandson. He is a disgrace.

Hope you had a lovely birthday @Niner

Their vacation was fewer days than many people have.

I can easily see how Meghan is homesick for California. I have been to England twice, once in the Summer, and once in the Fall. It was drizzly for a few days, even in the Summer. And chilly. Maybe it was an aberration, but I think that was pretty normal, because then it was warm for a few days, but always seemed rather damp or humid.

If they have enough money, why not go live in Malibu for part of the year? Meghan probably wants to attend movie star events. It would be sad if they are so rich and famous that they have to stay locked up in their house because of security.

I know the weather is so bad here most of the year I am on high strength vitamin d medication. I don't think Malibu would give them the privavcy they need. A security gated estate in beverly hills seems more appropriate if Prince Charles is willing to pay up.

Meghan grew up in the Los Angeles area and is certainly aware of the traffic. I rather doubt that this is a consideration.

I can't help wondering if Meghan's ultimate goal was to return to "Hollywood" as a "Royal"? Perhaps Meghan has aspired to continue her work as an actress and would now have the money and clout to advance an acting career. If Meghan were to settle into her "comfort zone" in the Los Angeles area, I doubt she'd return willingly to "royal" environs.

True as a HRH she would have a police escort and royal protection officers so traffic wont be an issue. I don't think the Duchess of Sussex wants to or can be an actress anymore she knew she would have to give that up before getting married. Can you imagine if she had to film something like a kiss or worse a love scene and the embarassment that would cause the Duke and the Royals? She is one of the most famous women in the world now and does not need to spend hours and hours a day on set. I think her goal is to be a force for change and good like Princess Diana but have a great standard of living too.

I cannot imagine why they would move to the US. They have a lovely home with huge acreage. No fires. No earthquakes. . No random mass shootings.

The Duchess probably misses her Mother lots and probably hates her every move being criticised and condemned by the British press. I have to wonder though if these moving abroad stories are part of the palace's PR strategy and they are really going nowhere and it is all nonsense.

After spending almost 3 million on renovations on frogmore (at the peoples expense) and now a move? If true people should be outraged.

I can tell you that I am homesick for California! Come this November it will be 3 years since I left. BUT! Am going in mid September - back to California - but just for a high school class reunion.... I've had this song in my head in the last few days! LOL!


And back in the mid 60s - I used to go down to Malibu beach for a day of sun!

She has not lived by her mother for quite awhile. Canada is nowhere near her mother

What a wonderful story. I have met many sailors who travel the world and they say Capetown is their most favorite.

I love how they showcase 15 organizations that are change makers.

I imagine most people have never heard of the work these organizations do. Very positive approach.

Happy Birthday!

I tried to put Latvian Birthday Cake | Klingeris | Recipe | Just Desserts | Cake, Sweet bread, Birthday cakein a Latvian birthday cake but I cannot load the image.

Did you get to celebrate the Baltic Way? If so, it must have been breathtaking.
 
Thank you human! :) I'll go to the link and see what my Latvian cake looks like! I hope it's delicious! :D

No - not in the original one. Last time I visited Latvia under Soviet rule was in 1984 - and then after FREEDOM!! in 1994. First time was in 1977 - seemed like going back to the 50s there! :eek:

Anyway - don't want to take the thread off TIARAS!! LOL!

edited to add: Oh I love Klingeris - extra powdered sugar for me! LOL!

I was thinking the same thing. Why not? But they should pay for it themselves, not the British people. IMO
