U.K. Reconsiders Flag-Flying Policy for Royal Birthdays Ahead of Prince Andrew's 60th

Prince Andrew: Bells of Westminster Abbey to ring for Duke of York’s 60th birthday as councils exempt from celebration

Westminster Abbey bells to ring for Prince Andrew’s 60th birthday despite Epstein controversy

Good he is an absolute disgrace. The bells of Westminster Abbey ringing for him needs to be cancelled now too.

This could mark the end of their royal service possibly IMO
Sigh...

PH might come back by himself for that event, imo. MM didnt stay long long the last time before the exit drama.....

I also arranged play dates altho back then we just called it "coming over for tea" . I think H and M will be drawn to families who understand the challenges re things such as confidentiality and security. Trust will factor hugely.

Jennifer's children are 11 years old. Archie isn't yet 1.

That's not really what I would call a play date.

On the other hand, M will be about 50 when Archie reaches 11.

IMHO

How do you mean? About MM being 50 that is?

I personally enjoyed having parent friends with children of all ages, even children older than my own, especially if 8 thought they’d done a good job raising them. Not what I’d call a play date, just a visit where Archie would most likely play on a blanket with some toys and perhaps some interaction with the older children while the parents visit. I’m not familiar with this family at all so who knows if it’s a good thing or not. But a friend for PH would be a good thing so I hope it works out that way.

The statement from the Queen regarding their exit was that the change would take place in the Spring. The JPM event was prior to so how does this affect taxes on the funds collected?

It'll take time. Everything is still recent. We have to remember that outside of his royal duties Prince Harry has no other skills to offer. Hopefully he will find other topics to talk about when he gives speeches or else it will be difficult for him to make money.

He will end up learning the hard way that maintaining a millionaire lifestyle requires making millions of dollars and it's not always easy to do if you don't have money making skills.

This is why he needs Meghan Markle so desperately in order to become an "independent" man. He has no clue what it's like to be a self-made millionaire or turn what he has into mega millions.

MM will be 50 yrs old when Archie is 11 is what the poster stated

Well if the Globe says it happened, it must be true. The Enquirer will probably verify it

I am sure anyone would like a check like that. Everyone has the right to form their own path but IMO they didn't think things through enough. This episode is a hot mess... MOO
