The British Royal Family #4

<modsnip: quoted post was removed>

Since their charity website domain got hacked several times to music videos that describe them in a poor light, ppl will get desperate to have a better image. Harry, just Harry will never get his quiet life unless they move back to Frogmore where no pics can be taken. His royal ties will not immune him from LA cameras. Go figure.... MOO

They don't want the quiet life though, that's so obvious. I can think of many places to live that would ensure a quiet life, but paparazzi central is not one of them. MM can't stand being out of the news for long. Why not take the perfect opportunity to hibernate for months during this Covid19 pandemic if that is so?

Correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't Markle say she wouldn't live in the US while Trump is President? I'm not going into the politics of it, of course...just pointing out what I'm pretty sure she said v. what she is doing.

If Harry bought in to her spin on the paps in the US being different he will soon find out that in some ways they are worse than the UK. In the UK chances of them showing up on CCTV are slim to none. RF security measures are firmly in place to prevent that.

Anywhere they go there will be Paps, she is fully aware of this. Imagine Oprah being seen on CCTV delivering food. The irony...

Well, we see why they volunteered - so they could get the director of Angelfood to post about it on their IG page.

Question about Harry's status in the US - can he live there long term because he is married to a US citizen? My niece married someone that lived in the US and it took them a few years to get it all sorted out. Just curious what his status is there?

I don't think they have made any statement indicating that they plan to live in the US but it wouldn't be difficult for him to stay for an extended period of time. I can't remember the correct term but it applies to those who have unique skills/talents, which is how Canadian entertainers and athletes can get things sorted out much quicker than the average person.

Not sure she actually said that. I think it was just a 'source' that told a paper she wouldn't

How the Queen has become Britain's best-known cultural icon

From portraits to pop: how the Queen has become Britain's best-known cultural icon
Her Majesty is instantly recognisable

The hair, the handbag, the unchanging profile – the Queen's features are instantly recognisable shorthand for the best of British. While she would never regard herself as a mistress of spin, our remarkable monarch has created the most potent of personal brands, one that has inspired artists from Andy Warhol to Lucian Freud. Not to mention fashion designers and filmmakers. Director Danny Boyle even made her the star of his 2012 Olympics opening ceremony, persuading her to perform a brilliant cameo opposite Daniel Craig's Bond, which saw her grandsons roaring their approval, cheering: "Go Granny!"

Her uniquely long reign has coincided with the rise of modern pop culture. So each successive generation views the Queen through the prism of their own concerns. As Her Majesty turns 94 on 21 April, we look at this colourful cultural legacy.

Photos at link.
I love the one of Her Majesty with her hands in her pocket. Kind of a 'funky' look for her IMO.

What time are we supposed clap on April 21st - was that 8pm London time? So that would be 10pm my time.
TIA!

5 ways the royal family are staying in touch during the coronavirus lockdown

5 ways the royal family are staying in touch during the coronavirus lockdown
The royals have been self-isolating in their respective homes

The coronavirus pandemic has affected all manner of things, from the way we work to the way we communicate with one another. Like the rest of us, the royal family have adjusted to life under lockdown. They too have been finding ways to keep in touch with each other, their friends and their charities, as people adhere to social distancing and self-isolation measures.

At HELLO! we take a look at how the royals, including the Duke and Duchess of Sussex and the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, are keeping in contact during the COVID-19 crisis.

The royals have been using apps like Zoom to carry out their royal duties and keep in contact with their patronages, but it's also been revealed that they have been using video conferencing to keep in touch with one another too.

In a BBC interview, Prince William said: "We’ve been talking to all the family online. And it’s been a really good way of keeping in touch and seeing each other. As you can imagine, the younger generation are a little bit more tech savvy, but only just, I think we're getting there now. The family are getting a little bit more used to being able to contact each other and pressing the right buttons and not dropping the computer halfway through." Kate added that family video calls can get a little hectic with their youngest son Prince Louis, who keeps wanting to press the red button!

The Duchess of Cornwall has also reportedly been keeping in touch with her own grandchildren via the Houseparty app, as she and Charles isolate in their Scottish home, Birkhall.

I had thought the GMA thing was an interview but apparently its just a clip from a behind the scenes shoot for the doc

Meghan Markle To Talk About ‘Elephant’ On Monday’s ‘Good Morning America’

"ET Canada understands that Meghan will not be giving a live interview but instead the programme will be showing clips from the making of the documentary with the former actress that were recorded a long time ago."

Yikes. I hope they use something more secure than Zoom.

No, she said it during an appearance on the Tom Wilmore show. She called him divisive and misogynistic among other things. It is on Youtube..

Well she's not wrong there. I could only find a clip of her saying about him being misogynistic, not about not living in the US while he's president.

Just like Harry put down Boris. Legit royals keep politics out of their role. They both need to get communication coaches. MOO

I think when it comes to rich/famous people there are different categories that they can use for permanent residency.

Any Briton (as long as they qualify by things like not having a criminal record) can stay in the US for 3 months at a time on the Visa Waiver Program.

I don't remember the rules for already-married couples where one is a US citizen and one is not....Normally people would decide in the engagement period where they'll live as a married couple and then do the fiance visa route, which can probably take as little as three months to get the process running and move over to the States for the wedding, and then you have to do interviews to prove that it's a genuine marriage, wait for the Green Card for permission to work, etc. And I think the actual 'forever' permanent residency comes in about 2 years. All of this requires payment of fees and lots of paperwork and stuff.

But as they're already married, they'd require the spousal visa if they wanted to live there permanently. Otherwise they could do three months a year without anything more than the Visa Waiver Program. The spousal visa is probably a similar timetable to the fiance visa, and the final part is permanent residency, it has nothing to do with citizenship which is a different process and not required to live permanently and legally in the USA.

I can't imagine Harry would go for US citizenship, but if he did, I think it's about five years after permanent residency comes through that a person can apply for citizenship.

Getting a green card will be hard for him. A lot of rules unless she sponsors him. We have several visas too but he wont qualify for the diplomatic visa that has less rules. He is going to get taxed a lot if he chooses not to become an American and polls are not looking good for that route. MOO
