The British Royal Family #2

There is a separate thread for all that shenanigans!
NY - Billionaire Jeffrey Epstein arrested on sex trafficking charges, 6 July 2019

Ahh...Thank you. I'll try to delete it.

She's not technically royal as she is William & Harry's cousin on Diana's side. She is 31 and her alleged fiancé is 60. Reminds me of the famous Mrs Merton question, which in this case would be: "So, Kitty, what first attracted you to the multi-millionaire Michael Lewis?"

I obviously know nothing but I am not fast to judge. She must have some family money and she is doing pretty well as a model. Between the end of my first marriage and marrying my husband who is the same age as I am, I dated a man who was 20 couple years older than me. I was quite attracted to him and it was a "real" relationship. The age difference didn't make a difference to the two of us and had nothing to do with why it ended, which was amicable.

Woah, we thought "Randy Andy" was bad for his string of ladies, check out Alexandra's dad

Her father — the Queen’s uncle, Prince George, Duke of Kent — was a man for whom the phrase ‘not safe in taxis’ (with either sex) was invented.

Burdened with a libido the size of an elephant, he bedded ladies and the occasional chap before and after his marriage to Princess Marina, grand-daughter of George I of Greece.

I haven’t read the article yet - thanks for posting it CMC. Princess Alexandra looks so good for being 80 years old!

Anyone need a job? I had no idea what Princess Alexandra looked like until just now, we never hear much about her. I've heard of her children and I think one or two of her grandchildren might have featured in recent royal weddings.

Interesting that she was 6th in line to the throne at birth, now bumped down to 53rd!

Wiki: Alexandra was born to Prince George, Duke of Kent, and Princess Marina of Greece and Denmark. She is a first cousin of the current British monarch, Queen Elizabeth II, and since her mother was a first cousin of the queen's husband, Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh, she is also his first cousin once removed.

They have some powerful genetics, living actively to a ripe old age.

Look at the sweet expression on Queen Elizabeth's face as she is greeted by Princess Alexandra.

Congrats. Considered yourself "crowned"

Police scold TMZ for reporting Kobe Bryant’s death before families could be notified

This is a horrific example of North American paparazzi which for some reason MM and PH felt wouldn’t be as bad as British paps. Disgusting.

Damn, can't open that link in Europe but can imagine the gist of it. Disgraceful and immoral behaviour.

It’s interesting to watch Prince William being introduced at the beginning of the video. He inclines his head to the first woman as she bows. Almost reflexively. And both he and Kate really give the appearance of sincere interest in what is being said to them. I love the way Kate allows the little grey headed grandmotherly woman near the end to sort of cling to her hand and Kate places her hand on the woman’s shoulder. They both give off the air of truly caring about the citizen of the country. They will make an excellent King and Queen Consort (did I get it right that time?).

“It also upset police who suggested the speed in which TMZ had reported the news — a little more than an hour after police said they received reports of a downed aircraft — outpaced that of officers who were seeking to notify the family members of victims.”

That’s the gist. I can’t even imagine what it would feel like to find something like that out in such a way! One can certainly understand why Harry wouldn’t want Archie in all the middle of that, although I’m afraid he’d be better off in Great Britain.

The DM could use some help with its photo captioning lol

"Steven Frank, 84, with his two granddaughters Maggie, 15, and Trixie 13, was photographed holding a pan his mother used as a boy"

Well, these days you never know, lol.

Truth! lol

I don’t consult TMZ so I have no idea, but I wonder if they were also responsible for reporting that Fox died with Kobe (he did not). But this is why I refuse to look at their site, even though they are often right in their first reporting. Same with DM. I just refuse to give clicks to unethical news sources. I can wait five minutes or five hours for a more credible and trustworthy source to give me the scoop.

I’m really surprised ITV are not concerned about the royal family blacklisting them from future interviews and documentaries because of there treatment of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex on Good Morning Brittain.
Thomas Markle is like a broken record it’s the same tripe he says over and over again it’s never anything new. I can’t believe a Father could do this to his own daughter it is disgusting and disgraceful whether you like the Duchess of Sussex or not.

Has the Royal Family ever blacklisted media for Duke and Duchess of Sussex treatment?
