The Invictus Games in Dusseldorf are coming up soon! Invictus is coming to Germany from September 9th through the 16th. Prince Harry will absolutely be there throughout the games and it’s my hope that Meghan joins him for the whole week. At last year’s games, Meghan was there for about three days, which was spectacular, but… yeah, I just hope she’s there for the whole shebang. Anyway, there’s something else happening around that same time, people! Baldemort is coming to New York on September 18. We shall call this Prince William’s Don’t Forget About Meeee Tour.
Prince William is making the trip across the pond! The Prince of Wales, 41, will return to the United States to attend the second Earthshot Prize Innovation Summit in New York City on Sept. 19, Kensington Palace announced on Wednesday.
Co-hosted by The Earthshot Prize and Bloomberg Philanthropies, the Summit will unveil the fifteen 2023 Earthshot Prize finalists who are trailblazing climate solutions to repair our planet by 2030. The Summit, held during New York Climate Week, will also convene previous Earthshot Prize winners and finalists with policymakers, global business leaders, philanthropists and climate activists to scale their innovative solutions. Michael R. Bloomberg, Global Advisor to the Winners of The Earthshot Prize, will also address the assembled guests.
The 2023 Earthshot Prize awards ceremony will take place in Singapore on Nov. 7. There, five winners across the Earthshot categories — Protect and Restore Nature, Clean Our Air, Revive Our Oceans, Build a Waste-Free World and Fix Our Climate — will be announced as the recipients of £1 million each to help implement their environmental solutions.
Prince William will spend two days in New York — both Sept. 18 and Sept. 19 — and also undertake a number of additional engagements and meetings.
Something similar was thrown together at the last minute last year, only William had to cancel his trip to New York when his grandmother died. Hilariously, Peg’s big New York “tour” was only conceived when Harry was invited to speak at the United Nations one year ago for Nelson Mandela Day. Remember the hysterical crying and screeching from Salt Island when Harry spoke at the UN? William demanded that he be allowed to speak at the UN too, only it looked like Michael Bloomberg could basically only arrange for William to conduct meetings in some United Nations conference room. I absolutely expect that William will try to do something similar for this trip. Jealousy is basically the only thing motivating William at this point. Also expect the Windsors to act up something fierce during the Invictus Games.

Somebody get Michael Rappaport on the horn to follow him around for his visit.
lmao! Just what PWilly deserves.
One would think that William would do this in Singapore. For years William did not STEP FOOT on American soil. Now it looks like he is trying to do this yearly to promote a prize that NO ONE CARES ABOUT!
Wish he would continue to stay home, this reeks of desperation. Like people in America will forget the Invictus games or Prince Harry just because Peggy comes to NYC.🙄 As an American I can say I’m sick of the BRF.. start going to commonwealth countries and leave us alone we are happy with the Sussex’s and the BRF just represents racist hate, unfathomable greed, and pure arrogance we have enough of those people here already we don’t need more from a country we fought to be free of centuries ago.
One of the many best things about H writing his memoir is that the world KNOWS who this family and especially his brother is. The world knows how he treated his American SiL. (Sticking his finger in her face in front of her husband no less, and sending knauf to scuttle her lawsuit, still raises my ire). He has some nerve showing up in her country. There is no fixing that rep, and he will never live this down and will never reach the heights his brother has no matter what he tries. So suddenly making multiple trips to the country where his brother escaped to only gets him side eye, everyone sees you bud, we see you. That ‘why cant I have Africa’ says so much, nothing he does seems genuine. He exudes no passion for any of it.
Wannabefarmer–you know, this is something I never can figure out. How does a person get through life not interested in anything worthwhile? Especially a person who has everything–and more. How empty and awful do you have to be to be that sad?
He’ll come to New York for his little visit and absolutely nobody will care, as usual, because the press will be too busy discussing Invictus, and whatever Meghan wore to Invictus, or if Meghan was even at Invictus, or whether or not the kids went.
Will the British Press be respectful of him or will they chase him around the city, trying to find out where he’s staying?
The only thing that will be noteworthy about this “tour,” will be the oppressive weather.
Can you say loser in New York? Loosa! Go prune some rose bushes Willy, the adults are working and you cannot do what your brother does cause you don’t have the heart or work ethic. Loosa.
The only thing that would make it newsworthy is if he announced his divorce during the summit. Lolol otherwise he will be met with boos and annoyance.
People should dog him everywhere he goes with, ‘this is Meghan country’, ‘America is team sussex’, ‘apologize to your SiL and brother’ signs.
“Not Our Prince” signs, like “Not My King” for Charlie.
Hee. “Meghan Rules.”
Is keen going. Will is desperate for.attention in the USA
Believe me, the UK 🇬🇧 is NOT BIG ENOUGH for William’s EGO 🙄
It is a sad state of affairs…
Oh, no. Don’t you know that their children come first and at least one of them is home when they get back from school, bathed and tucked into bed. Right??? Isn’t that the “story” why they were given an explicit reason to not take on too many patronages for the sake of their children?
Invictus Games continues to be a thorn in their side, I love it. As for this lil trip…..ok. At least the Earthshot (what a terrible name) folks aren’t out of sight and out of mind as soon as the award show they aren’t invited to is done.
It really does, they’re planning their whole life and schedule around it 🤣
Is Catherine not coming so they can actually ✈️ in as many 🌎 💉 🏆 as possible.
It’ll look 😞 on William if this time around he doesn’t have the actual nominees or past 🏆 with him in 🆕 York
@s808 they’re probably planning a state visit around those dates as we speak. K and her team are consulting her Meghan moodboard (and cross examining with the whatmeghanwore site) which already has nearly everything crossed off at this point 🙄
I just keep thinking back to reading Spare- the number of times Williams reacted with jealousy and Harry was like- i don’t get it- you have won, you have a family, you have status and success. Harry: i want to do invictus- William: but veterans are MY thing
Harry: I want to do a project in Africa- William: But Africa is MY thing
– can i point out here that Africa is a continent- plenty of room for all the separate projects???
Bless his heart. He just seems so very unhappy.
Does he even know what he wants? (aside from taking whatever Harry has?)
That’s it: taking what Harry has. That’s Peggy’s sole ambition and desire. After reading Spare, I thought to myself that Peggy is just plain abusive. And abusers want to abuse, period.
Yup–outdoing Harry is probably the only thing William cares about–or lives for.
This is the first time I read about the different categories.
Two days in NY during climat week? This is supposed to be his big interest, and he’s not staying longer?
We don’t need him here in NY any longer than that. Heck, we don’t need him here at all! I will certainly be focused on Invictus.
I fully understand you! It’s so obvious climat is a PR cause for him, not something he really cares about.
If I can make it there
I’ll make it
Anywhere
It’s up to you
New York, New York (pretty please?)
Peg is like look at me god damn it! I’m important too(not). The lengths they go to to be relevant here ( or anywhere really). I think Peg should stay home and do what he does best. NOTHING.
It’s embarrassing to watch.
@susanCollins, yes Susan the pnis with teeth is desperate to turn more and more Americans away from Harry and toward him. His ego and vanity make even trump look like a shrinking violet! I wonder if keen and the kids will be with him as a backing group or keen and George! For someone who wants to save the planet he’s a bloody hypocrite, yep two return long haul flights so close together. What’s the betting they will launch massive publicity drives to drum up crowds and run sycophantic articles in every American paper and TV channel. They are desperate for Harry to be forced out of the US and back to the UK
I think that he is banking on using Bloomberg in NYC to possibly get a major network to hype this up as much as possible. I think he is leaving Katie because him with her makes him uncomfortable and brings out the worst in him. He’s probably going to give some type of interview full of lies about his concern for the environment. I can’t forget the Amy Robach hot tape where she revealed that she knew about Epstein and Andrew but was convinced to ignore it so that they could get more royal access. I think the time has come for that access to really be used for this man baby. Expect there to finally be something that puts him in the UN giving a speech or something to copy his more attractive, successful and loving little brother.
I’m sure Faux News, the NY Post, and all the other Murdoch-owned media properties will fawn all over Peggy. It’s going to be radio silence from all the others. Even the NY Times had very little to say about the last Earthshot visit. No one CARES. Even the media outlets that do cover him will do so because they want to put one over on H&M — not out of any interest in him.
@Mary Pester: You wonder if Keen and kids will be with him? If necessary, William with get down on one knee and sing “Mammie” on Broadway. Boy, I’ve never seen a man that needy for attention. It’s like he must have it all.
As an American, I also vote that William et al go to the Commonwealth countries from now on, and leave us the hell alone!
The pnis with teeth – perfect description – that man can’t – doesn’t know how to – actually smile – he just grimaces and bares his teeth – even his ‘smile’ is aggressive
“If necessary, William with get down on one knee and sing “Mammie” on Broadway.”
🤣😂😂Only if he wants to get a royal butt-kicking from justifiably-irate POC New Yorkers–and everyone else. 😂🤣🤣
Lord yes, he’s Fredo. I can handle things! I’m smart! I want respect!!
Prepare for the keens to start doing double engagements during Invictus week. And they will absolutely play up the pda. Who knows maybe keen will actually succeed in getting that kiss. They will pull out all the stops just to steal the attention away.
I think will won’t want pda and Kate Will and try as she usually does.
You got that right! Bully boy will need an additional guard whose sole purpose is to keep Waity’s hand off his ass.
They haven’t had a public kiss since their wedding day, and it was awkward looking. I highly doubt they would ever do another public kiss.
We will absolutely get pictures of the kids, that’s basically the only thing that works to get them attention anymore. Their first day of school will be around then, wonder if we’ll get pictures of that. (they don’t usually do those unless its someone’s first day at a new school, so I generally wouldn’t expect it, but the timing might be too tempting for them to ignore….)
William and Kate don’t want to visit the Commonwealth lest there be a repeat of the Caribbean Tour where their PR was an epic fail— a total disaster. The people there completely showed them that they want them out of their sight for good. That tour was meant to secure the monarchy but, after the big disaster, now the security of the monarchy is in a precipice.
William wants to invade New York. He thinks the people of NY will grovel at his feet and lick his a.. because of his title. I think people there will snub him. New Yorkers don’t care about royalty.
This is great. Hopefully this means that the royal rota will not be at the Invictus Games but will follow William instead. My thinking is the Wellchild Awards will be either just before or just after the Invictus Games. If it’s after, William is going to be overshadowed by Harry being in London.
Yeah, I think WellChild will be held around that time, especially since they had to miss the last one due to the Queens death.
I believe the royal rota will follow the money. They will all be with Harry. This is just like when William and Kate toured Pakistan in 2019 and Meghan and Harry headed to the Endeavor Awards ( the iconic photo of them under an umbrella ); most of the royal rota and photographers left W & K in Pakistan to attend Meghan and Harry’s Endeavor Awards. The royal rota know who/where they can make an awful lot of money. They are in denial; they wouldn’t admit even to themselves that William and Kate are boring royals. And no matter how they embiggen William and Kate these two remain to have zero appeal.
Do the royal rota have to apply to attend and cover IG? I can’t imagine Harry will want them there
Already shrugged off by Boston, he’s going to try to get NYC excited. Won’t work.
William has been wanting to stake a claim on nyc ever since the Sussexes did that mini tour there with the mayor at one world trade. It was pretty soon after that when there was all the talk of Will and Kate wanting to compete with the Sussexes and fight over America. But William go eat at Melba’s in Harlem?
Ofcourse not! There are blacks and peasants at Melbas! Plus they will expect him to pay!
He’s so needy for American attention. It’s embarrassing at this point
It really is. I laughed at so many of the tweets under that People story…..just lots of “who cares?”
Which is sooo oddd, because they look down on Americans.
Not really. They may claim they do but, if you look at their actions rather than their words, you’ll see something entirely different. It’s sort of like, “We’re very much not that much of a racist Klan” or whatever. Look at the conduct, rather than the words with these people.
Why is this even an announcement? Just go then go home. Also don’t do any pr out in the public where we have to pay for extra security.
Will he stage a 2 hour car chase to imply the paps are desperate to get his photo too?? (Not to joke about the Sussexes terrifying experience, but W’s copy-keening is real).
Is Kate too busy doing school runs to bask in the glow of her burgeoning / bursting celebrity status? Since where she goes, the celebrities follow…My guess is she is pissed she cannot attend as Will is working on his “hot single dad solo engagement schtick”.
William desperately and pathetic attempt to steal attention from Harry is so Bizarre he has the British media in his back pocket none of his deeds become public . He rich beyond belief and doesn’t do nothing yet his jealousy of Harry and Meghan will be his undoing. His sad attempt to make earthshot into something as big as Harry projects is pathetic.
It’s real proof of what a small man William actually is. He has all the money and resources at his disposal to do so much good, but this is where he chooses to focus his attention. He’s a child.
Hope earthshot gets investigated by a proper journalist because this is a vanity project. They’re spending more money on promotions and propaganda than actual climate change.
Can’t wait to the clearly planned pap photo of Willy slumming it in on a commercial airline conveniently leaked to deux moi
Is he going to address homelessness during his visit to NYC and say he will solve it in 5 years.
It seems like a real sickness. To have so much – and be wanting what someone else has all the time. It seems all consuming to William. It’s sad. What an unhappy life to live. Especially when theoretically you’re the chosen- but out of that bubble, and once Garry came into his own – you don’t ever measure up.
Stop trying to make fetch happen, Willy
I’m seeing this differently than the rest of you! I see this “tour” as piggy backing on the goodwill that the IGs generates. TOB knows he can’t upstage the games but, he will make damn sure he basks in the reflective glory and use Invictus to his advantage. By “flying” out to NYC so close to the end of the games, he is hoping people will see Earthshot as having the potential to be as successful as Invictus.
Laura D, I don’t think people will put those two things together. They’re very different. I just don’t think there’s that much interest in him. In fact, his base here are MAGA and they are not going to be happy that he thinks climate change is real. I hope people show up with signs that say, “Not My Future King”.
I’m with you on this, I saw it as him trying to piggy back on Harry’s coat tails, it is really Pathetic of him.
He is so beyond pathetic at this point. This still won’t get coverage. And unfortunately, that’s all this about. Hopefully Bloomberg was able to get some serious people involved so that these innovators can actually get some work done.
Will this trip be considered his 2023 Super Bowl tour? 🧐
The guy is reaching so hard for relevance somewhere, anywhere. I wonder if he’ll ever get what he’s searching for. He is failing daily but the tabloid propagandists are working overtime to boost his image with their spins, even printing fake stories about the Sussexes to help boost him up. No working out so far.
At least at the UN event he’ll be surrounded by people flown in from around the world so he would not be embarrassed like he was when he went to Scotland for his flopped homelessness tour and no crowds were there to greet him. 🤷♀️
But will they be flown in or just appear on video like last year 😂
Anyone care to guess what the “number of other meetings and engagements” are? Is that number currently at zero while KP makes desperate phone calls trying to pry an invitation somewhere?
I think he’s going to go with photo ops to make himself seem important and respected and I think its just going to fall flat, much like the Boston trip.
That’s the headscratching part about KP….they just don’t learn. Boston was a flop last year. Stop trying to make yourselves superstars in the US. People who like them like them as celebrities, not as serious philanthropists or experts. They want to see Kate in a fancy gown with big jewels and Will in a tuxedo attending a movie premiere. their US fans don’t care about their initiatives etc.
I think you’ve got it Gabby–they’re currently trying to find stuff for him to do, people for him to meet.
Stay in the UK, William.
You are not popular in the US, this will bite you in the ass.
@heykay, how I would love to see people carrying big signs that say “NOT OUR PRINCE” 😂😂
Mary Pester, great minds think alike. I just finished commenting above that I hope people have signs that say, “Not My Future King”. I like yours better!
Ugh, hope that doesn’t screw up our already messed traffic!
Ps: we don’t care for this chump in New York , we just love Harry and Meg!
This man is petty, mean spirited and a gigantic baby. After the car chase this is his plan to woo NYers as he believes the Sussexes have lost favor there. He’s gonna pose with that stupid mayor Eric Adams as well as do certain PR geared outings.
I’m sure he heard news that the polo match for sentabale was planned in Singapore and hurriedly rushed to announce earthshot was taking place there as well.
dude you’re gonna be king, inherited a large estate and an entire country press is kissing your ass and you’re still not satisfied.
Wasn’t last year’s Innovation Summit sort of a weird non-starter affair? I remember it being one day at some hotel, 9-4, with like 25 speakers scheduled to say something over Zoom. It was posted on the Bloomberg Philanthropies site, but didn’t get any press.
Yeah, but last year’s also happened during the Queen’s funeral. It was also hastily thrown together bc it was only done in competition to Harry’s UN speech. I don’t think they had much time to plan.
It could have been an email.
And he’ll launch another super-duper project that will never get off the ground and no one will remember what is was supposed to do that it didn’t. Jealousy and competition, huh, Willy?
It’s such a great idea to fly to another country for TWO DAYS to promote climate awareness.
Try to restrain your excitement, New Yorkers.
Nothing says environmentally conscious like holding two global events a year . Twice the carbon emission damage but I’m sure not twice the fun
I’m sure New Yorkers will be delighted with how much it screws up traffic.
Also, the petty in me hopes Meghan goes to part of Invictus, then makes a stop in NYC to hang with some friends… right around the time Sir Peggington gets there.
I am absolutely that petty. Not sorry.
Is is safe to assume the newness of the title(s) have worn out and it is back to ;-
“I want what Harry has?”
“I want what Meghan has?”
@wellwisher, I’m just worried that he will get Biden to appear or Jill, as they are keen on green energy. Then he will really have gained a foothold in America
I’m not sure I’m understanding this. Are the winners being flown into New York to participate in climate week? And then are they going to be flown to Singapore to get their prize. Or are the winners going to be on zoom and high profile board members will be featured like Queen Rania and former New Zealand prime minister Jacinda Ardern? Why don’t they present the awards in New York and treat the winners to some of the activities of the week? That’s what would be done if EarthShot were a serious attempt to find solutions and not a vanity project for an ineffectual British crown prince?
Tamsin, it sounds like the September meeting will be announce the 15 finalists. They along with previous winners will get to talk to “policymakers, global business leaders, philanthropists and climate activists to scale their innovative solutions.” Then they will have the awards ceremony in November in Singapore. I have no idea if any of the finalists will be present. They should combine these and hold only one Earthshot event. I have no idea why they think holding two makes sense.
I have a very radical idea. Why don’t they hold these events in the UK? Are the Tories telling him no–there is no climate change? Or are we going to be saddled with this nitwit every year from now on?
They hold these events here because New York is arguably the world’s biggest media hub that gives guaranteed worldwide coverage–if the subject is worth covering, that is. 😂
This is sad. William recently showed up to an event in the UK and no one cared. He walked past empty barricades. Instead of meeting with his team and trying to figure what he can do to generate interest in the monarchy or figuring out why there is no interest he’s chasing Harry. If no one cared in the UK why would they care in the USA?
This man needs to get therapy and figure out why he’s obsessed with taking things from his little brother. Once he fixes that hole he needs to figure out how to protect his kids from the media. They don’t look as carefree as he did when he was their age. His reign and his children ought to be his priority not Harry.
Also there is something repugnant about William coming to the USA every year while working with Charles to make it impossible for Harry and his family to visit the UK safely.
@B,well said
@B. William’s utter hatred of his brother Harry is gnawing at him.
Will the prize winners actually be there this year or on a Zoom screen? Does Kate get to wear another neon green dress?
Yawn.
This fool is absolutely desperate to crack the USA isn’t he. It’s starting to get embarrassing.
Harry is a tough act to follow, Wills.
But you already know that.
How silly that Pegs thinks he can conquer NYC. 😆
His “charm offensive” will be utterly underwhelming!
Yawn. Does anyone give AF about this douche?
Agree with a lot of the comments above. 😊. WK hardly comes to the US and now it’s like almost a yearly visit. Well, they know in the back of their mind the US was a prized colony that they had lost. And right now Harry is more popular in the US than William(conducted by their own polls) and thats driving him mad..lol.. At the same time, a lot of Americans are just getting tired of their condescending and arrogant tones. Even some of the MAGAs are getting sour of them 😄.
Wills seems to be a masochist.
It’s like he wants to go out and prove to himself and the world that he can match — TOP — his little brother. But he won’t, and will just get angrier, more bitter and resentful. And on many levels, he knows this, he knows his events will flop and he will suffer in comparison, but still he does it anyways.
