This is just a reminder: the Princess of Wales’s second annual Christmas piano recital will air on ITV on Saturday, Christmas Eve. Last year’s Together at Christmas event did not get much in the way of viewership, plus Kate sort of kneecapped the carol concert by making everything about how she played the piano… in a prerecorded bit which was then spliced into the broadcast. I wonder if the same thing will happen this year, since clearly Kate does want it to be all about Kate.
This year’s carol service is dedicated to the late Queen Elizabeth II or whatever. There were Paddington Bear ornaments on the Christmas trees, and I would imagine some people said some words about QEII’s legacy. Kate also recorded a couple of previews, which I’m sure count as separate events. I don’t know how many takes Kate needed, but she made an effort to soften her glass-cutting fake posh accent. She also wore a very sparkly ensemble. Part of me wonders if she started doing these carol events because she loves the costume changes. Next year, we might even get a Christmas Ode to Buttons.

Is it me or is everything they do now dedicated to the dearly departed queen? Seems like they just can’t quit her since they cling to her like a life raft.
Kate probably used the Queen to get ITV to agree to broadcast her concert this year.
They use the queen for an array of reason. Number 1 because she was loved by the people. And most people think it’s nice if you do something in memory of a loved one. I also assume they want to showcase that they were close to the queen. Although in reality i believe the queen might not have been the greatest fan of kate.
“The Queen” is the cover all shield for anything. Rarely criticised by the media when she was alive and now inviolable because she’s dead, invoking her memory covers your royal a**e for whatever it is you do (or don’t do). The BRF are going to milk that for as long as they can.
I mean…she only died 3 months ago. It’s my first holiday without my grandmother too, so I get it on that level.
It’s gonna be the first Christmas without the queen giving her speech and also she’s barely passed 3 months. It would be odd if they didn’t mention her in a time where everyone is supposed to gather for the holidays and spend time with loved ones. I don’t find this odd at all and don’t think it’s a calculated move. I lost my grandpa this year in august and we are honoring him during the holidays when everyone is around.
They need the late Queen’s legacy to stay relevant since none of those Britain-based Windsor-Mountbattens are interesting on their own…..
Spot on @Freddy. Members of the BRF invoke the QE2’s name for relevancy and faux feelings. Seriously. Uncle Hooker’s & Blow (thumbs up to the poster that came up with that name) wouldn’t have felt okay saying over the last few years that the Queen should step down for W&K if there was any true emotional attachments to QE2. UH&B was completely comfortable doing so. No f*cks given. Much like Dan Wootton and his articles re: W&K vs. Charles.
It’s like how the BM insert the Sussexes into almost every story about the BRF. They don’t get the same number of clicks unless the Sussexes are mentioned even when it has nothing to do with them.
🤔And also has a brown, female body seemingly strategically placed. Maybe I’m more sensitive to or aware of it?🤷🏾♀️
That’s a softer accent? It still sounds to me like every word is an effort. I’d really be curious to hear what her every day accent sounds like.
At least I could understand (most of) it. Usually I have absolutely no idea what she’s saying! Baby steps, lol.
Hell,yeah things feel quite different this Christmas… British citizens are freezing in theirbloody homes and some eating mouldy food with the blessings of the Torie government and evidently the RF.
That accent is still so put-on, though. It is a bit better, people likely won’t need subtitles like one usually does to know what Kate is saying, but still.
I have a mental image of her behind closed doors at home, cigarette in her fingers, yelling in a Cockney accent, “George! Get yer arse up the apples and pears!”
Lol I am picturing something similar. Like if you were her staff it would shock you the first time you heard it because it’s so different from her public speaking voice.
If you have Netflix, I urge you to watch the Windsors, a satirical show that gives Carol Middleton just the worst accent ever. I can hear the differences in Brit accents but I don’t generally know where they’re from, but I can tell this one is bad.
I get the feeling that she sounds just like Bridget Jones, which is neither the poshest nor the least posh of accents.
Omg 😂😂😂😂
Dammit!! I have a similar jacket I was going to wear for Christmas eve! Is this the universe telling me not to?
I think it’s a cute jacket! Wear it xx
You should wear it! It’s all in the styling 🙂 I still think about how Meghan styled that black tweed jacket with jeans earlier this year, around the Invictus Games. Kept it from looking stuffy!
Agree with this. That jacket could fun and festive, styled appropriately. Sparkles are fun this time of year.
I was thinking jeans & a slim white T or camisole underneath, with black flats or booties. Or Doc Martens.
Wear it! She’s copying you now! Sparkles forever!!!
the nipple stripes are totally unnecessary
My first thought: Nice sparkles!
Second thought: Are those pocket edges (?) supposed to be supportive? 😂 Because that is weird placement.
Rock that jacket!
It’s a cute jacket! Go out there & have some fun!
@Slippers, all you’re way too in the now to be wearing that jacket. My gran wore that same sweater over thirty years ago. Def do up the sparkly but not in that old trachten style!
TBH it looks like something an 80-year-old would wear onboard the Queen Mary, completely with weird nipple button/emblems.
Sophia from Golden Girls wore it better
I always wonder whether wales kids get embarrassed by their mom’s fake accent . I wonder what they make of it and this fake persona. Plus I’m very curious how prince william and rest of his family think about Kate faking her accent . It almost feels like trolling . Maybe that’s why none of the royals seems to like Kate.
Her wiglet is back and her face is getting worst everyday. She is not happy and something going on bts. Her uncle calling for Sussex to come back , so once again William might show interest in Kate for their mutual hatred for Meghan. Without meghan , William doesnt have any reason to talk to her. Children schedule might work out with his secretary.
Are the kids going enough to understand the class implications of the fake accent? Most kids recognize that their parents have different public personas. But these kids know a lot of secrets about their parents behind the scenes.
I think Louis gave us a preview of what they might think of her.
Louis definitely did. Putting his hand over her mouth signified everything about what those kids think. They must be stressed to death at witnessing the double-lives their parents lead. It’s why they sadly always look so miserable and withdrawn in public.
I’ve been waiting to see if anyone else connected the dots regarding Louis’ treatment of his mother to what he must witness at home.
If Louis was imitating what he sees at home, I may feel a tad sorry for Kate. That’s highly toxic behavior coming from a spouse. Cheating is bad but disrespecting your spouse in front of young children is building generational trauma, which Wills should well know.
I see they made sure have a black woman prominently shown in the trailer. She’s gross.
Lots of POC! Once again not sure why, at this point, any BIPOC/BAME person would agree to take part in anything having to do with that racist family.
I also noticed the Tindall thug got a cameo but no one else in that family did. What’s that all about?? Was the guy he greeted another rugby player?
That feels like stock footage to me. The actors didn’t know the specifics of how it would be used.
It looks like those were some of the people invited last year and mainly people who looked “diverse” were used in this ad. If it is stock videos, omg, that doesn’t seem very royal
If they used stock videos/photos, I await the same level of outrage they sputtered upon realizing some of the shots in the H&M trailer were from other events.
I noticed that too. Sheesh. But where is she from?
She has softened her voice. My guess is since this year’s concert is a tribute to the Queen that Kate is not going to do anything special during the programme.
Poor Charlotte on that front page. She must be thinking why am I in it? Again?!?
And right above that headline screaming about people dying. That paper is something else.
Whoa guys, did you SEE how DIVERSE the ad was?? No WAY can they be racist tw@ts with people of different ethnicities in their trailer!! We have it all wrong!!
I actually wonder if their cutting a second trailer showcasing black and brown people was in response to Camzilla’s BFF’s violent op ed. So this is the response of the “very much not a racist family.” See! Look at all these POC coming to my keen concert!
Either that or it was done after that nightmare video of Cams being awkward with the children and holding that little girl’s sleeve while looking like the wicked witch. I don’t blame them for dedicating xmas to the Queen or whatever. But I do blame them for pushing that Paddington thing so hard. She had lunch with him one time lol.
Damn, I forgot about Camilla taking the little girl by her sleeve. When you add that together with Camilla appointing Susan Racist who harassed Ms. Fulani and Camilla did nothing about it, then Camilla (again) invited a guy for lunch and two days later he wrote a violence racist fantasy about Meghan. So, Camilla is really feeling her oats as queen consort and is representing her husband in a telling way.
Also was that Mike Tindall in that one shot? Looks just like him.
She looks so weird in these pictures, with the black jacket and then the red sparkly dress. When I look at them and then look at the pic of her on the Mail in the burgundy, she doesnt look at all the same. Is that because the sparkly ones are full face, and the Mail is more of a profile? Or is that the Mail pic is photoshopped?
Anyway such a lot of promotion for a one night event. Are people going to actually watch this? I wonder how long before iTV or whatever says “sorry, no” if the ratings continue to be dismal.
I checked the TV schedules and this is actually being broadcast at the same time as the BBC’s “Carols from King’s”, which is also a carol service which has been going for years. It’s also up against “His dark materials” and “Home alone”.
They have managed to rope in a few celebs (Catherine Zeta Jones, Hugh Bonneville – they are obviously flogging the Paddington thing to death). But I still think it will struggle to get the viewers.
That’s obviously why they’re trying to make it all about the Queen – to drum up some interest.
@Jensa, Home Alone? On Xmas Eve? Well there go Kate’s ratings right there 😂 I’m a grown-ass adult and would watch Home Alone (again) instead of Kate’s Kate-centric mess.
What? How did this happen? Catherine Zera Jones is in Wednesday, which is on Netflix! I hope they encourage her to disavow that evil company, promise to never appear in the show again, and convince H and M to leave Netflix, too! The horror!
I’m starting to think the RF must be getting a kickback with this Paddington Bear thing. Like, for every bear somebody buys the RF gets a cut or something. Have they ever connected themselves so obviously to something like this before?
Hugh was at Cowmilla’s luncheon. Makes me wonder about him now!
@Jan90067, are you confusing Hugh Grant with Hugh Bonneville? I’m not finding anything that says HG was at Camilla’s lunch with Jeremy & Piers.
In a winter where many Britons will have a hard time affording heat or food this ding dong is trying out a new outfit for every promo. When will they get fed up of her nonsense?
Weeelll, you say that @Becks1 but here is how Hello magazine described her in this very jacket…
“the 40 year old wore her hair in an unfussy side parting and her glossy waves had a certain post-salon perfection vibe about them. Exuding her signature regal radiance, the princess opted for an understated make-up moment, consisting of a dash of mascara, her trademark defined brows and a peachy flush across her cheeks”
Lol.
Signature regal radiance.
I wish you could see my face right now, LOL.
“trademarked defined brows”… which are going in different directions.
🤮
That woman doesn’t leave the house without a cake load of foundation. They must be taking the piss out of her because there is nothing natural or fresh or minimal in what she does.
“Understated makeup”?!?!? Hahahahahahahahahahaha!!!
Since when?
@Nic919: “… there is nothing natural or fresh or minimal in what [Kate] does.”
^^ Much less anything radiant or regal, FFS! 🤪
In the main pic she looks like they did a Face Swap photoshop with her and Emma Stone and stopped halfway. I think she’s got new veneers, which are contributing to the overall uncanny valley look.
I hope the ratings tank worse than last year… I don’t know how anyone can stomach these vanity projects of these useless lazy welfare recipients who do nothing to help anyone but themselves.
So much self-promotion for her plinky plink, me me me event. CP Haakon played guitar on a Christmas recording years ago, benefits to their Foundation, and he did no where near this much self-aggrandizing about it. Her OTT behavior and sparkly outfit is even more offensive than usual given what people in the UK are facing now.
I get anxiety listening to her talk, it sounds like she’s losing oxygen, she reminds me of Nicole Kidman in the final scene of Moulin Rouge, saying her dying words….
In all seriousness though, I get the general impression that Kate has mental health struggles of her own and that we should be empathetic.
In videos of her chatting to guests she looks over it & just exasperated by the job.
I think she arrived separately at the Carols to greet everyone on her own and chat.
It would hurt to know Harry protected Meghan ultimately but that your husband cares more for the title than you, I think that would be a worst betrayal than flings.
I think he would put pressure on her without even trying to look a certain way. He looks so proud of her when she dazzles at events – and that’s great but it’s not a healthy way to be after 3 kids – the expectation your wife be a trophy.
I’d like to see this whole monarchy crumble for what it does to women.
In Kate’s shoes I would think it would be hard to see everything that Harry walked away from for Meghan and realize that William very likely wouldn’t do a fraction of that for her.
And we should be empathetic to burgendy Color bully Kate – why???
Thank you! This b!tch is evil. She lied about Meghan, sent her uncle out to talk trash and involves her kids in stunts to bully the Sussexes. If she’s in a hell of her own making, then oh well. She hung around and ran after William for ten years. She wasn’t a teenager like Diana who was bamboozled and pressured into joining this circus.
Exactly! It’s important to point out Kate’s evident struggles, but in no way should anybody feel sorry for her. She fought for this life and if she’s suddenly realising that it was all for nothing, then that’s on her. She bullied out her only potential ally for the sake of her own racist and misogynistic self-hating ideology. No sympathy should ever be applied to a person like this.
William never looks proud of Kate, he barely acknowledges her and can’t even tolerate her touch.
@Feeshalori, that’s what I was thinking….when has William even LOOKED AT Kate in the last few years, farless looking proud of her when she “dazzles”?
@Ali: “He looks so proud of her when she dazzles at events.”
IMO, neither part of this comment is true. Khate does not ‘dazzle,’ albeit sometimes the sparklies on her gowns might. LOL! And as others have noted, since when has Cain EVER looked at Khate proudly??? Not ever, not even when she walked down the aisle in her wedding dress! FFS, Cain TOB never even turned around to look at his bride. Contrast that behavior with the besotted visages of Harry and Jack as they gazed lovingly at their respective brides!
@Ali: ” I get the general impression that Kate has mental health struggles of her own and that we should be empathetic.”
Those who wish can be ’empathetic’ toward this mean girl. 🙄 I’m not gonna waste my energy on that. Her own cruel actions, inactions, and pettiness render her undeserving.
Kate probably cares about her title more than she cares about William, too.
Yeah I do feel like the way she speaks is slightly effortful, it doesn’t mean she has mental illness though! It’s a skill and also a talent. She’s worked on it and improved but might not enjoy it, it is what it is
I’ve never noticed William even looking at Kate when ‘she dazzles’ at big events, let alone looking proud of her. I agree, though, it must suck to be with a man who bristles with disdain at your very presence.
hmmm….no. As long as you tell yourself she deserves it then no, you don’t need any kind of empathy or sympathy — fire away.
Kate chased this life for a decade, debased herself as the secret convenient bedmate when other women turned The Prince down, bullied his younger cousins – all for title and position. She chose to marry a man she didn’t love, a man who doesn’t love her, in exchange for a royal life. She did that, not her stage mummy. Those were Kate’s choices, just as she continues to do jack sh!t in the royal job and chose to bully and abuse Meghan. Kate. Is. No. Victim. She’s a user, abuser, racist, and bully – just like William.
I would say, I think she did *love* him. Or thought she did. Haven’t you ever had that sickening longing for someone and not been able to… make different choices?
Kate never would have put up with this arrangement, starting as the secret cheating bedmate, if she didn’t want The Prince and all that came with it. The love/adoration has always been for his position not for manchild William.
If she is that unhappy she can get a divorce. Her mother in law set the precedent for it. But she’s staying because she wants the prestige, the title and promise of a higher one and she wants the stolen jewels and tiaras. And she chose to attack her own sister in law, who would have been an ally, because she is a deeply insecure and envious woman.
She owns this. It’s what she wants.
I would have trouble leaving the royal security. I don’t know if they negotiated that before her marriage. I wouldn’t want to be hounded
@Nic919
This ^^^
What a typical Kate stan response, cws. She’d be allowed to live at Adelaide until she remarried or the youngest turned 18, which would provide security. She’s also be given a smaller security detail when she flits off on holiday. She wouldn’t be left to fend for herself as Harry and Meghan have been.
Kitty Keen ‘hounded’? She wasn’t even hounded during the dating years. The only times she really faced paps was 1) the day after their most public breakup 2) her birthday when she and her family expected a proposal and it didn’t happen. The pap pics after the breakup were staged, with Kate carrying empty boxes out of PP and loading them in he car. Clubbing nights? She was given the option of being snuck out the front. She’d go to the ladies, fix her makeup, and go out the front because she wanted to be papped with Willam.
The ONE TIME they were followed? It was because they drove away from the club, no one followed. They drove back around to the front of the club, rolled down the windows, called out to paps to show they were in the car, and one fell for the bait. THEN they filed a complaint about being followed. Even the birthday tennis photos with Tanna were prearranged, with Carol(E) taking him a blanket to keep him warm while he was photographing Kate. For years the Middletons kept close ties to many paps, contacting them for photos of Kate with William to have for their family albumn.
She would get security if there was a divorce. Diana did not have it because she did not trust the security but they wouldn’t do that this time. Besides she’s not staying in the marriage simply because of security reasons. She wants the title, the people bowing to her and access the duchy money and eventually the sovereign grant. She sacrificed her dignity and self respect to always be available for William during the dating years, something no other woman does unless she is paid to do so.
And it was all working out fairly well until Meghan showed up and did the princess job in a much better way, able to give speeches and cover though issues with skill and most importantly to kate, Meghan is younger looking, more popular and prettier without even trying. With a spouse who treats her with respect and love.
Sorry Ali, but when does Kate ever dazzle at events and have her husband look proud of her?
His normal ranges from boredom to disdain when it comes to his underachieving but spendthrift wife. He’s over it.
I don’t understand the purpose of the sparkly red promo and then the sparkly black promo? Like I literally don’t understand the logistics or reasoning? I’m not hearing it’s a charity concert but is it?!
I know we shouldn’t compare because it is so sad but I’m actually laughing my ass off imagining the Sussexes doing two separate vaguely California-themed photoshoots to promo the doco! Like… why?!
Hmm, but Netflix did release more than one trailer, so maybe that’s why we’re getting two promos for the carol service.
2 or 20 nobody cares about this stale event unless you have insomnia
Maybe because the other promo featured ugly clothes and a dirty floor and that sad tree. This one is a little better. I guess KP wanted a second shot.
@SAS, when I read your comment a vision popped into my mind: Meghan and Harry doing a SNL “Californians” style promo in blond wigs and all the cast 🤣🤣🤣
YES Janet! Exactly what I was picturing lol!
I’m not usually this person, but something is going on with the left side of her face.
The eyebrow’s been wonky for a while, but now the lower part of that side of her face is IDK less engaged? Like the motion and energy of her speech and expressions are driven by the right side and the left just follows along? I’m not a doctor or med-spa expert so I’m not sure how to describe it. Sure, one can have natural differences from one side of the face to the other, but this is new-ish for her in the last year or so.
Botched over use of Botox
Botched botox. 😜😜😜
And no one claim it’s natural and Kate’s left eyebrow has always been wonky.
THAT IS NOT TRUE.
https://stylesatlife.com/articles/kate-middleton-without-makeup/
Did this article just yas b*tch some of the most frumpiest looks from Kate? Like she just looks bitter and plain
@Tan, I can only fathom this was written by AI.
One of the pics it says she looks good in …. is Pippa, not Kate. Lolz.
AI or Russian troll nonsense! So weird how it went on and on about no makeup, when there was just one picture with minimal makeup. And Pippa. 😂
That article just proved two things to me: how much Kate’s face has actually changed since her 20s (and its not just losing weight), and how much better she looked in the early-ish years of her marriage. The stress and tension were not evident.
Hilariously nonsense copy but one thing those pictures did highlight for me is how much worse Kate looks without her ‘signature glossy waves’ framing her face. When she has her hair back, she looks a lot plainer – as we saw most recently in that really awful picture of her on the balcony for the Remembrance service. Maybe this is why she is so obsessed with wiglets…
I have noticed weirdness on one side of her face for quite a while too, it looks completely frozen, and like it’s drifting downward. It’s v weird.
Also, thank you for the link! I clicked through. Lots of pics of Kate pre surgical changes, and one “family photo” of her that she isn’t in. 😆
Agree with Becks1 that her face in those early makeup-free shots is free of tension, noticeably not strained. Two other things: her hair tones being darker – and not the awful warm/reds of recent years – suited her much better; and it seems she squints a lot now, makes her look hard faced perhaps contacts or glasses would improve her look
It’s like the left side of her face have fillers that have started to slide. She has cheek “definition” on the right side, and her left side looks much fuller. Makes no sense to have happened “naturally”. Smile also only lifts on the right. Botched botox for sure.
Also looks like she’s wearing eye makeup on her right eye, but not her left…? Doesn’t she look in a mirror before going out?
Lol, who wrote this cloying article? And they misidentified Pippa as Kate in the group photo #11.
Been noticing the left side of her face for a long time. It’s less noticeable when she’s smiling. Even videos from ten years ago, when she’s talking, look at her mouth and you can see the asymmetrical movement. Maybe I notice it because I have this issue too (mine is my right side) and I’ve tried to figure out what causes it and how I could inexpensively fix it for years. My jaw clicks open on the atrophied side and is super tight on the opposite side. So it could be overdevelopment on one side from TMJ which causes atrophy on the other. I’ve wondered if it could be very mild Bell’s palsy, too. Kate had some sort of tumor surgery removal when she was young, don’t know which side, but maybe that impacted the nerves on that side.
It’s the face she deserves
The bags under her eyes! She looks like she has been crying for days, just tired and miserable.
Side note: I read “The King’s Speech” and was like “they watch the movie together? Wild!” 🤣
I noticed that too. As if her eyes are tight and super dry-looking. She looks like she’s been crying the night away watching Harry & Meghan’s documentary over and over and wondering why her Willy doesn’t touch her that way.
I think she looks like she stays up late drinking and crying. She always looks like she has hangover skin.
I don’t think what Will does or doesn’t do with respect to Kate is the whole issue. The way she has always centered herself, always trying to attract attention, she truly must have pictured herself picking up Diana’s mantle – the young, glamorous, beloved royal figure. Never got the memo about doing actual work like Diana so how successful she would have been under other circumstances is questionable. But then Meghan showed up. She was pretty, and new, and also married to Diana’s son. For a while, especially after H&M left, Kate probably thought she had the upper hand, in what was really a non-existent competition.
At this point though, having turned 40, wouldn’t be surprised if the choice Kate made – putting up with a husband who didn’t love her in exchange for status, money, jewels and attention – looks like a lousy bet. After the recent run of Meghan successes (e.g., Archetypes), and now the worldwide reception of the documentary, Kate must know on some level she’s never going to overtake Meghan, copy keening or no. Plus she sees in Harry what a loving partner is like, while her husband can barely treat her with respect.
I felt a momentary sympathy for her; she’s been a stone cold b*itch where Meghan’s concerned and I credit her with full agency, but I sense there’s dysfunction there, reflected in her extreme thinness, constant need for new clothes, cosmetic procedures, etc. Maybe she just looks better by comparison with Camilla, who I consider a purposely evil, racist piece of trash.
Ultimately, though, I just hope the kids are alright, and that’s about it.
Kate has always had pronounced bags under her eyes, it is genetics. See Carole and Pippa. Kate had a bleph during the girlfriend years along with the rhinoplasty. In her next tune up, she might have the lower bleph redone.
Please Kate, I beg of you, stop pronouncing “recognising” that way.
Yes, thank you, real accent in that dropped G
It’s insane how they have co-opted Meghan’s ideas, imagery, and phrasing. “community”, “inspire”, “connection”. There entire social media ideas is from Meghan. They went from 600k followers to millions after she started dating Harry. They even co-oped their social media manager after the sussexroyal account was closed. When Meghan did a advert video with a videographer for together she was mocked and heckled. Then of course the book was a smash hit and generated half a million for the hubb. It’s disturbing to witness in real time on such a large scale this attempted co-opting of someone’s entire being.
@zebz, I just put it together, no pun intended, that she stole the title of her program from the Hubb kitchen cookbook. I’d not noticed it before but damn that’s sneaky and petty trying to erase the first ‘Together’ from public awareness
I notice it every single time this concert is mentioned. M’s
“Together, Our Community Cookbook” title is being grafted onto KKKhate’s desperately-needed-project for this useless, empty vessel of a person.
Kate stole the word Together from Meghan’s cookbook and slapped it on her Christmas special. Last year I suspected she was mimicking Meghan’s cookbook title, but wasn’t so sure. But after this past year of Kate persistently hijacking Meghan’s ideas and style, it’s now plain as day.
Vogue Instagram has a post up about Kate in this sweater and there is a strong voice condemning Kate and the Royals for their silence regarding their treatment of Meghan. I have never seen that degree of unified support for Meghan. The tide has turned.
Oh Harper I didn’t scroll enough to read your comment before posting
No problem @one of the marys. We are on the same wavelength.
Outside of royalists who are the same as racists at this point , anyone with human compassion would state that the clarkson article was disgusting and condemning it is an easy thing to do. The silence from all of them, her family, is deafening.
And it’s hilarious that they pretend kate went through the same thing when in fact the PM went to Kate’s defence over far milder and less direct criticism when Hillary Mantel said kate was simply a mannequin to display for the family.
Anyway they look like the racist assholes they all are and the world is seeing them for who they are, despite the tiaras and sashes.
KKKate is aging real bad real fast
I did not like the Paddington skit at all. This is too dragged out. Kate still can’t play the piano
Her diction is getting worse. Luckily subtitles were included, otherwise I wouldn’t have understood most of what she was saying. It begs the question, what are they going to do next year? It’s safe to say a large majority of people didn’t really care for the Queen’s death to begin with. She was 96 and it was largely expected, especially since when Phil died last year. The fact this institution is still riding the coattails of the Queen all in the name of ‘legacy’ and ‘honour’ is laughable. I bet ITV wouldn’t have even commissioned if for a second year if the Queen didn’t die. Last year’s ratings were pitiful and I should think this year’s will be just the same.
I’m really struck by the front page with the “cheeky swipe” contrasted with potential deaths..
I hope all of our UK celebrities are safe and warm for the holidays!
Very sad. Everything is a repeat.
I have a suggestion for Kate, based on the empty words she uttered — utt-ahed — in this promo: Try going “above and beyond” to support your sister-in-law, who’s faced disgusting racism from your pals in the royal rota.
The hateful Kate praising strangers for helping others is just galling.
It’s all such a joke, this talk of togetherness and Christmas spirit coming from a woman – and by extension, the RF – who attempted to drive a pregnant woman to suicide and to this day continues to brief against her. Christmas is a time for love and light and family. These people have no love in their hearts and their spirits are so dark. They know what they did. They may think that because they’re “royals” they have every right to do anything they please, no matter how heinous, but deep down they know they’re wrong. This is why they’re looking so aged and awful: they’re rotting from the inside out. Their racism and hatefulness seeps out and shows on their faces.
They think the Black Duchess has no right to exist and they tried to destroy her. History won’t be kind to Kkkhate and the Windsors.
🥱 I’m bored
same. it’s like groundhog day
She looks as if she’s been crying a lot the night before. I saw the same sad “crying” face in Boston. Something is definitely up.
I see Spaniel locks.
I guess I’ve been on CB too long because I read that as Pegginton bear…
Happy holidays all!
Cute jacket, if it’s a cropped one. Makes me think of Meghan’s black cropped jacket with jeans at
Invictus, Netherlands. That’s three different outfits for one carol service for us to admire.
She hasn’t stopped spending. New Self-Portrait blazer. Spend it while you can! The Daily Mail sucks. It’s already demonizing the workers who are underpaid and overworked. They haven’t done the costs of her yearly wardrobe yet, but I bet there will be plenty of Harry and Meghan hate pieces. Over six figures on clothes during a cost-of-living crisis. Great look Kate. No time spent helping the underprivileged.
There is no way she hasn’t spent at least half a million pounds in new clothes this year.
That could have gone to a raise in salary for the nurses in the NHS.
Sophie’s simply reiterating their myopic view of themselves in that society.
It is embattled and intrenched, so much that words like ‘reconcilation’ etc used in retelling of the saga seems ridiculous on its face.
What would have been more telling would have been to have an announce-ment and silence, until it was broadcasted.
No stupid articles clothed with aspirational nonsense.
That would have meant less work for some in the media.
Fittingly so!!!!
(Do care that it is not a proper sentence.)
Wrong article .
This comment is for Sophie’s Winkleman’s item in the Spectator.
This recording wil be considered a day’s work and one engagement.
What the French Toast did I just read?
So…a bully antagonizes a kid every day, spreads all kinds of lies about the kid. And years into it, the kid finally pops the bully in the mouth. The kid stands up – provides the receipts detailing all the lies the bully has told and puts the bully on blast. The whole school cheers. They hate this bully anyway – everyone wishes he’d just move out of town already.
The mom of the bully and his dumb ass aunt: “I’m so proud of this young hooligan for not retaliating against that kid. He was just grace under fire when the kid hit back! He’s not gonna stoop to that level…”
Is it me or do her hands look like those of a 70 year-old? Holy.
Eating disorder.
This woman has no self-respect or dignity whatsoever. She’s constantly out there doing the ‘look at me’ act. She really wants to be treated like a ‘star’, but she has no charisma and no personality whatsoever.
Is it just me or is the NHS and ambulance worker gaslighting headline positioned like this rather damaging in its contrast with the Keen being xmas keen? The UK health system is failing and crumbling in realtime right before our eyes and the layout of the DM just connects Keen/the Windsors to it /helps underline their useless triviality, right?
She gives me the creeps. She’s a pod person.
That commercial is like something from a local PBS station. I love PBS. I support my local station. But with the resources they have, they should be able to do better than this? It feels amateurish.
“Remember the memories,” everyone! If that makes sense to anyone. Everyone associated with the Pegginton family is an incompetent idiot and moron.
Diana did that one time on stage dance and got berated for it. But keen is praised for making the concert about her shows her lack of talent and Charles and the totals praise keen to the skies
Charles and the royal family and yes Diana had talent
Has anyone here seen the user comments under Vogue’s Kate post? Apparently they’re quite vicious and the Twitter Sussex squad is saying it’s not them. Wondering if it’s worth trying to remember my password lol
Just took a look to see for myself. You’re not kidding. The tide is turning. https://www.instagram.com/p/CmfRHzMuTol/
Thanks for posting the link Yikes — you can only hide behind your hair for so long.
Thank you @yikes! Going to check it out now as Christmas was…well, Christmas lol Twitter Sussex squad was enthused as well!
I don’t even think she is playing the piano herself. Either the camera work is bad or she is just pretending to tap.
Didn’t chuck tell them to do more. I don’t see chuck and Wales teaming up against Harry all the time. I think they fight their own battles amongst themselves. I mean Will having to kiss Camilla on the cheek. Get real he is the vindictive one.
Will misses his human shield and he is trying to not be passed up in succession. I can see Peter; Anne son getting a shot if chuck’s crew don’t step up.
@Emily of course I do, Henry VIII broke away from the Catholic church to marry Anne and formed his own church…..so what.? I enjoyed the choir at the carol service, what’s your point? Should I carry some senseless hatred for all anglicans? Good grief!
I am so over the Paddington Bear jelly sandwich thing. Is anyone else or does this jelly sandwich stand alone?
