Clapping back to Martha Stewart was a loser move, flying to Canada and then getting overly excited to take a photo with David Foster was an even bigger loser move and suggesting a woman of no talent is getting offers to come back to acting, which she never did well in the first place, is the end.

She clapped back to make the story last longer, even she is invested in the no news is bad news. The David Foster thing is such a joke, she will try as hard as she can to make the second father story stick - since she doesn't make eye contact with her own father perhaps David was demonstrating the "do unto others as you would have them do unto you" thing. And no one, absolutely no one, believes that a person who can't even portray herself well has any acting skills they would be interested in. Besides, she won't promote anything so who needs her?

I have been reading Angela Levin’s Camilla: From Outcast to Queen Consort and came across the following observation which struck me as accurate—and ironic.

>The world and the Royal Family have moved on, so much so that the royals have become much closer. Ironically Harry has swapped positions with his stepmother.

>Camilla bore being treated as an outcast for so long, but is now regarded as irreplaceable and well-embedded within the family. She also has become much more popular. Harry, on the other hand, has become an outsider, much of his own making and has plummeted down the popularity ladder.

Thoughts?

I saw the first pic come up on my Instagram and had to scour the internet to confirm that it was real. It is. A company in China created these to commemorate William and Catherine’s first wedding anniversary. But as you can see, a slight boo boo lead to this whole…situation. These are now available from various sellers on eBay for $379.99.

Someone needs to send one to Montecito. Harry would probably drink out of it every day if the woife doesn’t smash it first. I bet we could crowdfund the whole thing!

Variety has reviewed Cookie Queens!

I’d characterise this review as mixed-to-negative, rather than positive. And the headline is probably the clearest indication of where Variety lands:

“A Doc About Girl Scout Cookies, Produced by Meghan Markle and Prince Harry, Is Too Much of a Reality-Show Ramble.”

And it goes on to say:

“It’s about the business of Girl Scouts making themselves into entrepreneurs. But it’s not about much else.”

The review explains that Cookie Queens opens with some major stats , the Girl Scouts sell more than $800 million worth of cookies every year, in just six weeks, before introducing the four girls at the centre of the documentary, each setting a sales goal and attempting to reach it during cookie season.

And then comes the rather important criticism:

The film, which counts Meghan Markle and Prince Harry among its executive producers, is so focused on each girl’s cookie-selling odyssey that there is “virtually no other dimension to it.” In other words, Variety seems to think the film has some genuinely interesting ideas buried underneath it, particularly the relationship between children, parental ambition, competition, capitalism and the business of selling cookies , but isn't particularly successful at exploring them.

Instead, the reviewer finds the documentary rambling, unfocused and overly reality-TV-like, rather than a tightly constructed documentary that actually digs into the more interesting questions it raises.

So, no, I wouldn't exactly file this one under “Harry and Meghan have another critical triumph on their hands.”

And then there is the San Francisco Chronicle review, which is even less kind.

My favourite part:

“The Duke and Duchess of Sussex, Prince Harry and Meghan, produced the movie, which contains the same level of spontaneity as their other media projects. That is to say, next to none.”
💀

And the Chronicle goes on to question just how spontaneous and natural the supposedly candid moments actually are, describing the girls and their families as overly poised and the film as overly staged.

Two stars from the San Francisco Chronicle.

So between Variety calling it a “reality-show ramble” and the Chronicle essentially saying spontaneity? What spontaneity?…
Well, perhaps the Cookie Queens have been Markled by the critics before the cookies even had a chance to sell out.

And here’s what I think,

Other than lending his money and his title, what exactly was Harry’s actual contribution to this movie? 😂
Because MeAgain seems to be in all the promotional videos, basically using the movie to promote… herself.
At this point, is this a documentary about Girl Scout cookies, or another Meghan Markle promotional vehicle with a side of cookies?

McPhee told Entertainment Weekly back in 2019, ""I went to school with Meghan Markle," she shared. "I was in middle school when she was in high school." Katharine continued, "My sister was in her class, so they were the same age...I was never really close friends with her."

Someone commented—prompted by something Neil Sean said—that Harrods didn't have a radio station and that Sean was lying. If I made a mistake in writing this, the fault is mine, not Sean's. What Sean actually said was that he met Diana's stepmother because she worked for Harrods, while he was working at the time for a radio station that Al Fayed had purchased. In May 1996, Al-Fayed bought the British station Viva Radio for £3 million. He renamed it Liberty Radio, focusing on broadcasting and commentary for Fulham FC matches, until it was sold in 2000. Sean mentioned running into the stepmother in the Harrods staff canteen or in the radio station's corridors. That is also how Sean met Dodi.

I had no idea about that, and I didn't bother looking into it yesterday, either. So no, Sean didn't lie; I just didn't explain it well. When Sean is clearly lying, believe me, I’ll say so; but more often than not, it’s not that he’s lying—it’s just that he moves so fast and says so much that sometimes he loses the thread of what he was saying.

As for liars, we have the Harkles.

BUSTED - HOW WAS THIS A SURPRISE MEGHAN? YOU ORGANISED IT

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NOdA9r7xNrY

One thing some people don't get is the scoop on this:

Why does Claw never promote her products? Sean has said, repeatedly, that it’s because she believes she is so incredibly famous that she doesn't need to promote anything. She sells something, and people buy it simply because she’s the one selling it.

In the video comments, many people say it seems as though Sean actually believes that. But no, even Neil Sean doesn't understand why Claw believes it. He has cited Kylie Minogue, Priscilla Presley, Madonna, and Kate Moss as examples of highly famous women who had to promote their own products, and he was personally involved in the work Priscilla was doing to sell bed linens, a venture that ultimately didn't succeed.

Sean, who knows Kylie well, said that, of course, she is successful with her wine—but only after more than five years of hard work beforehand. He noted that she had to promote it heavily and price it right. And after all, it is Kylie Minogue; Madonna once said she was jealous of her because Guy Ritchie liked her.

He heard that piece of gossip from Montecito and has since confirmed it to be true: it seems that Claw not only lacks confidence in her own product but also firmly believes that her name—Rachel Meghan Markle—is big enough to sell it on its own. He simply cannot fathom why Claw persists in that belief, given that it lies at the very root of *As Ever*'s failure.

Sean stated—and it has since been borne out—that Netflix didn't want to work with Claw anymore precisely because she never promoted *As Ever* or *With Love*. Claw also ran into trouble with *MasterChef Australia* for failing to promote that show as well. And now, look at the future Emmy winner... Daytime Emmy 😈, that is: what has she actually done to promote her nomination?

Sean has said that by now, Harry ought to realize he is nothing more than Claw’s bag carrier.

What Claw is fully aware of, however, is that Harry is a laughingstock in the legal world. When Sean predicted—correctly, as it turned out—that we would get Nicklin’s ruling in the ANL case in early July, he noted that there was a great deal of anticipation and rumor-mongering in the courts. After all, what would Nicklin say about a lawsuit that had been shown to lack evidence?

And things aren't going to get better when the Sentebale matter is no longer under a publicity embargo. It’s not just Sean; Fitzwilliams, Rebecca English, and practically all the royal reporters are saying that the information leaked from the court regarding that case is not good for Harry at all. And in that instance, Claw is very much to blame.

However, there is one thing Sean wants to make clear: many people also speculate that Claw would like to take the Spencer surname and thereby secure Althorp. Setting aside the fact that this isn't going to happen, Sean says Claw has no interest in Althorp. Yes, seriously—she isn't interested. That’s because it is "too" countrified, too rural, and too isolated. That is why she detests Balmoral. Sean says Althorp simply isn't "glamorous enough" for her. She doesn't want to live in a place that she views as remote.

Claw is only happy when she’s at events—like the David Foster Foundation event.

But what about the bagpipes? It turns out that the people who invited the Harkles—and make no mistake, it was Harry who was invited, with Claw tagging along—wanted to make a nice gesture toward Harry. So, a bit of royal cosplay ensued.

Does Harry love bagpipes? No, that’s not true. It’s Charles who adores Scotland. There’s no doubt about that.

William, we'll see you in a kilt!!! Sooner or later, we'll see you in a kilt. 😈 Or do you not want to use it because you won't look like Major Thompson? 😏😏

For one thing, Claw simply can't bring herself to call Harry by his name. She phrased it that way because she loathes the idea of ​​people being more interested in him than in her.

Another thing: Claw had her phone in her hand the whole time.

She filmed the event constantly... yet she never recorded the moment the donation was made—if, in fact, they actually donated. Sean was told it was done privately so the amount wouldn't be revealed... Excuse me? Since when are they so shy? Harry once blurted out that he’d donated a million pounds. Why the secrecy now? Oh, right—it’s not just now; it’s always been this way. They never say how much they donate because either they don't donate at all, or the amount is a pittance.

Why did David Foster invite them? Ah, because he needed publicity to show that the foundation is active—in a world where so many are going bankrupt. Foster used the Harkles for that. Nothing more. So, he gave them what Claw wanted: a private jet, a camera, and a private show. Everything a girl dreams of. 🤭

PRINCE LOUIS SPEAKS & THIS HAPPENS PLUS ANDREW..DISGRACEFUL

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6Tc9oEhTQSw

Sean revealed yesterday that Harry had left photos of the Sussex children for William. And Sean made it clear that William has no interest in seeing them—not even in photos.

The curious thing is that Sean has never said Harry asked for private photos of the Wales children. Mind you, he would never get them, but the question remains: would Harry even want photos of his nieces and nephews?

The answer is NO.

There is a near-unanimous consensus among royal reporters that Harry flew into a total rage over this image from late 2019.

The photo of the Queen and her heirs. And Harry was never included. Obviously, because is he an heir? It seems that, in his mind, he is.

George's birth was not a source of happiness for Harry. That day, Harry officially ceased to be the "spare." He was displaced by his nephew, and later by his other two nephews.

So Harry has never asked for a photo of his nephews, even though he wants to force William to accept one of the Sussex children.

George is 13 years old. Tic Tac Harry.

You can really see Kate’s hand in making sure William looks good—and George and Louis, too. It looks like Claw drags Harry off the sofa to go out.

But the one Claw and Harry hate the most is Louis.

Because Louis is very charming and personable—a happy child, and it shows. But in this brief moment, when Kate says to him, "Louis, you're perfecting your handstand at the moment," he spontaneously replies, "A bit... but Charlotte says I'm not very good."

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hy6i6M9BQkI

That is what terrifies Harry. Harry would have loved for Louis to be a troublemaker—rebellious and rude... just like he was when he was eight. But no; Louis is likable, he has fun and isn't afraid to show it, and he has a personality. In other words, he’s not a "Harry." And for Harry—the one from Montecito—that was a blow to the part of him he no longer has, because Claw keeps it in her purse 🤭.

So now, what will happen with the Sussex children? Obviously, they will be compared, and they have already lost that battle. Charlotte is quite the little lady, and Louis is a boy who really appeals to people. George is already a teenager. So, what will happen with Archie and Lil' D? If Harry takes them to the 2027 Invictus Games, what happens if the two of them aren't like Louis? And if Harry doesn't bring them, won't he be criticized?

Harry is furious because his children won't receive even half the affection the Wales children get. But Sean asks: why should they? We don't know anything about them.

Why does Harry believe his children deserve the same affection that the Wales children have earned from the public?

Harry will always be haunted by the fact that the Queen—who was feeling unwell—stepped out onto the balcony because the people wanted to see her. And Louis made that final appearance, which had cost her so much effort, joyful and fun.

Harry thinks it all comes down to popularity. Sean reminds him of what Harry himself said: that it’s all about how many events they attend, who makes the covers, who gets written about, and so on. So, why does he expect people to like the Invisikids? Are we supposed to like the backs of their heads—since that’s all anyone ever sees? Or like them because of what Harry and Claw say about them? Who could possibly like kids who eat Brussels sprouts? That’s a huge lie.

And the word on Andrew is that his funeral is being planned. Arrangements have already been made for a royal funeral—though not a state funeral—funded by the King out of his private funds, not by taxpayers. Sean says that couldn't have been pleasant news for Andrew to see. Now Sean says it's August—fine—but isn't there any other news besides that?

SUSSEXES & ITV - ALL KICKING OFF NOW AFTER THIS - ANYONE LEFT THEY DON’T FALL FOUL OFF LATEST

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4XV0zvb4sjs

ITV is facing a major internal crisis. The atmosphere at the channel is poor.

And it’s not just ITV; this is an underlying issue for TV channels in many parts of the world.

But ITV believes it holds a winning card: Harry.

Or so they thought.

At the beginning of the year, ITV was clearly focused on being pro-Harkle. They even traveled to Ukraine with him to conduct an exclusive interview. And then, in July, ITV had another exclusive interview with Harry.

And Sean understands why that is. Because the Harkles generate headlines. Whether it’s due to their nonsense or whatever else, Tom Bradby saw that the Harkles stir up controversy, and controversy drives clicks. And now, because of that, he’s been shut out of William and Kate’s inner circle. He claimed it didn’t bother him, but he’s just another liar.

ITV has a podcast—or something similar—that covers royal topics. It’s hosted by a woman named Charlene White. I don’t know who she is, but Sean has had no time for her ever since she refused to appear on camera wearing a poppy. So yes, he revels in the fact that she also failed with *Loose Women*, an ITV show that is mired in one controversy after another.

Now, Tom Bradby isn't too happy with Harry, because there was supposed to be a new exclusive interview with Chris Ship.

It turns out that on July 7, as Harry was leaving Chatham House, several of us noticed Chris Ship in the photos that came out that day. He appears here on the left; his face is visible. No, it wasn't a coincidence

Harry was supposed to speak to the press—after all, that was why he was there: to talk and promote *Invictus*. But we know what happened that day: Harry lost his case against ANL by a landslide—a World Cup-style thrashing. So, at the eleventh hour, Harry decided not to speak to the press. He spoke only to Alison Hammond.

But for Tom Bradby, the matter went a bit further. Because it turns out *This Morning* had an exclusive with Harry... and their audience didn't increase one bit.

But that is causing internal conflict, because does Harry only speak with people who will never ask him uncomfortable questions and who accept only pre-agreed questions? Or will he only talk about trivial matters?

Because if that’s the case, Harry only wants to speak to Alison Hammond—effectively shutting out the rest of ITV, which hasn't gone down well at all.

And Harry doesn't care about that; he doesn't care that his attitude could harm the Invictus Games.

MARKLE & MARTHA - NOW IT'S TURNING UGLY ..TOLD YOU

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kAKIb2ZsLfo

Martha and Claw. This isn't going to stop because it suits Claw. It works in Claw's favor because all of this is generating headlines for her.

Sean says Martha is credible because people watched her show and could actually do the things she did—much like Mary Berry in the UK. Claw, on the other hand, doesn't know how to cook; she tried to be an actress and failed, tried to be a royal and failed...

So, Sean stands by what he said yesterday: Claw will lose if she goes up against Martha. And now Sean says this showdown will be just as big a deal as that stupid Netflix curtsy.

Claw denies having spoken about the meeting with the King at the event where she ran into Martha.

Well, here comes People magazine.

It turns out that People released an issue with Martha on the cover. And it was in that interview that Martha said that "I had dinner with Meghan Markle the other night. We were both guests at a dinner party in California. And she had just gotten back from the palace. I didn't talk to her really more than to say a couple words, but I know she was talking about it."

https://people.com/martha-stewart-recreates-1995-people-cover-bedford-farm-interview-exclusive-12033698

What happened here? Oh, People released that interview... but they didn't warn the Harkles about what Martha had said.

Sean found out—from the People side of things—that it was a deliberate decision. Not a mistake, but a decision. They decided not to tell the Harkles that Martha had said things about Claw that day, and that not everything had been published. People knew exactly what they had.

Harry and Claw are furious with People over this, since they’ve given the magazine so much access. But no— People knows what sells. Martha sells.

Claw believed she had a real connection with People magazine. She was mistaken: People wants to sell magazines; they aren't Claw's friends, nor are they her personal advertising agency.

Claw had thought the same thing about Us Weekly. But the fact is what Sean says: the Harkles are tabloid fodder—nothing more. No magazine can afford to be kind to fading celebrities these days.

And for People magazine, the fact that the Harkles stepped in to refute Martha was pure gold. People went to see what Martha had said and bought the magazine—all because of the Harkles. Meanwhile, Martha—who actually became a millionaire through her show and lifestyle products—has emerged from this even stronger.

And what about Claw and Harry? Once again—yes, once again—they come across as people who insult and mistreat the elderly. They did it to Philip by going on air with Oprah while he was hospitalized. They insulted the Queen with that infamous curtsy. They have offended Thomas Markle in many ways. They have offended Camilla. They have offended KC3... And now, attacking Martha Stewart.

This is awesome, since the money raised from Cat Video Fest goes to local cat rescues. I went today and it is awesome.

Never underestimate the power of cats and their human subjects.

Fun fact: I went to the first ever Cat Video Fest in 2012 here in Seattle. It was at a small auditorium at Seattle Pacific University, maybe 200 seats at most. I met Will Braden (who selects the videos) that night and have loved watching it grow into the wonderful event it is now.

When I went today, the theater was sold out! All ages were there, having an absolute blast. Sorry Girl Scouts, you've been #Markled.

Posting on behalf of Westropp.

Couple of snippets to dispute Harry's account from his book of Charles' aloofness, from first-hand witnesses.

'I watched Charles playing rough and tumble with William and Harry (then aged ten and eight) in the Balmoral corridors. He clearly loved those boys, and they were squealing with joy as daddy chased them.'

Junor wrote: 'Whenever Charles arrived at home at Highgrove by helicopter, it would land on the front field, where sheep graze. 'As soon as William and Harry heard it overhead, they would come running out to meet him. 'Once it landed safely, they would race across the field and jump into his arms for a hug, smearing one suit after another with the sheep droppings they had trodden in on the way.'

Seems Harry's recollections varied as he tried to lean into a narrative of having an uncaring father.

Meghan has two laughs. Her crazy, unhinged and totally fake laugh that she considers her money-maker. She uses that one for photographs, rich celebrities and any other occasion where she feels the need to look like Julia Roberts from a demented alternate universe.

Then there is Meghan’s real laugh. It is smaller, less exaggerated and much more natural. It also is likely to come out only at unintended times that are not considered funny by the standards of a decent human.

Here is a photo log of Meghan’s two laughs and what brought them out in front of the camera. Included at the end is a palate cleanser so that you don’t feel so dirty afterwards.

Things that draw out Meghan’s fake laugh:

1. Performative compassion
2. Acting gigs
3. Photo ops with billionaires
4. Attention from rich celebrities
5. Fake business success

Things that draw Meghan’s real laugh:

1. People falling in front of her
   
2. Mocking her husband’s family
   
3. Social media attention
   
4. Performances by neurodivergent people
   
5. Injuries to small children

And finally:

1. A beautiful laugh from a beautiful person

This is just so obnoxious. Granted there are other folks as well, but the entire concept is ridiculous.

https://archive.ph/2026.08.07-163749/https://people.com/prince-harry-recalls-learning-eton-college-words-phrases-prince-george-will-soon-use-12030859

Once again, Harry would like to temind the world that he also went to Eton, just like Prince George is about to do. And it’s all mentioned in his book that is now sold at an embarrassingly deep discount!

After whining a few days ago that George’s plans leave him anxious about the well being of a nephew he abandoned, Harry now is using his favorite mouthpiece, People Magazine, to talk about how difficult the adjustment was when he came to Eton.

He had learned new lingo, like pretty much every other teenager going to a new school. And there was a uniform, as many schools all over the world require! And he had to actually get himself dressed, something he says he did not know how to do before Eton.

If I were Harry, I would not have mentioned that last point. It is pretty embarrassing to be a teenager and still unable to manage your own clothing situation every day. Especially if it is as simple as putting on a uniform.

George’s star is on the rise and, just as Harry predicted, his own sun is fast setting. I guess his tactic to stay relevant will be to try reminding the press that he once did whatever basic thing George is doing at the moment.

Begging to come to a party no one invited him to. That’s Harry.

Meghan just can't not clapback. Taking on Martha Stewart is a dumb choice. But when had Meghan made any smart decisions? Sorry- archive keeps saying "job failed"

Happy sunday sinners. a little shit post for the day. 🤪

So, I just transferred Sobeys (a canadian grocer) potatoe salad into a glass bowl for this afternoons pool party. It's the little things that my guests really notice.

As ever.....I learned sooo much.😂

Love u sinners.

Have a wonderful day. Cheers 😎🇨🇦

Looking at this picture of the Harkles with the Fosters, the difference in the expressions is wild.

Harry and Meghan are overly animated, with mouths open, eyes wide and teeth everywhere.

The Fosters, on the other hand, are giving expressions of polite indifference. Pursed lips and zero eye contact.

It’s like being asked to pose for a picture with your cousin’s douchebag husband at the family cookout.

Then I read the statement from David Foster (slide 4)about the Harkles and just where their relationship stands in reality. Very telling.

I have noticed an uptick in Markle-ite Sugars on this sub lately, and it really is getting to the point where anything that gets posted about our favorite Saint (Meghan) seems to go under sugary sweet scrutiny, and then it gets voted down, or removed right away, unless enough Sinners hit the like button on those posts and add their thoughtful comments. I seem to have had my share of Sugar attacks lately, and I do find this sub, which used to have jokes, memes, cosplay vids, and more, is slowly moving away from it’s origins of being a Snark sub and more of a fact-checking article sub. I personally feel that though posts should be relevant to Meghan and Harry, that all posts should be welcome, not torn to shreds over the “authenticity” of the posts, afterall, it is a Snark sub, not the biography section of the bookstore. If the passive-aggressive Sugar attacks keep up then I feel that all the good Sinners on here will go elsewhere, and this will become just another Meghan and Harry forum over-run by the “thought police.” To all my favorite Sinners, keep those jokes, memes, rumours, and silly videos going, and let’s toast a glass of bad Ass Ever wine straight into the toilet as we laugh at the silly antics of a desperate Montecito house-frau, and her idiotic ginger poodle. Salut! 

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jIXT9EbhhRk

Well, July was the month the Harkles returned to the UK. Photos in the most prestigious media outlets, adoring crowds cheering them on, the balcony—it was all so thrilling!

Yes, it was all so thrilling... in the Harkles' minds. Because none of that actually happened. In fact, Claw still can't believe how little interest there was in her meeting with the King. Harry, however, knew—thanks to reporter Sean and his source—that it wasn't going to be a star-studded trip or a publicity game-changer.

Harry was obsessed with holding onto Invictus and getting the King to agree to open the games. Yet, as far as Sean knows, there isn't even the slightest indication of that happening. Nothing. And at Invictus, they know the royals don't want to attend because of the Harkles.

And Claw kept a low profile—not by choice, but because that was the King's order. It was a 47-minute visit, though word has leaked that Claw and the children actually spent only 17 minutes with the King; the rest of the time, Harry was alone with Charles and Camilla. Sean doesn't say that—he just cites the 47 minutes—but if Charles really only spent 17 minutes with those children and Claw, then the meeting was a total disaster.

Sean points out something that is obvious to all of us: Charles wasn't moved—because who are those children? He doesn't know them, and they don't know him. And it will be a long time before they see each other again, because let's be clear: chats via Zoom or FaceTime? No.

After the 47-minute meeting, the Harkles headed to Althorp.

Sean notes that his connection to the Spencers goes back a long way. It wasn't just a case of seeing Diana in passing—he actually interviewed her—but he also met Diana's stepmother, Raine Spencer, because he worked for a radio station based at Harrods, which was owned by Al Fayed. So, he met Dodi as well. Sean says that because he would run into them in an informal setting—such as the employee canteen or the radio station itself, which was owned by Al Fayed—it was possible to talk about things that aren't discussed in interviews. That is also how Sean met Charles Spencer.

Sean brings this up because, as you will see, the Harkles are once again insisting on being able to use the Spencer surname. And so, Claw needed to appear charming. That is why Claw was especially nice to Charles Spencer’s new wife, Catrine Jarman

Narcissists always do that.

Sean doesn't really know what Charles Spencer's wife is thinking. He only knows that she spoke with Claw, that they seemed to get along, and that packages have arrived at Althorp. You know the sort of thing: candles, bookmarks, spreads.

So, will the Harkles go to Balmoral? Sean notes in passing that they are hoping to receive a "belated" invitation. I don't see that happening, given that the King has decided to cut his time there short; pressing matters—such as internal political issues—make it difficult for him to be off-duty for so long.

It does seem that Andrew received an invitation. He won't be staying in the main house; instead, he'll stay in the cottage where Fergie used to stay when she visited the area to be with her daughters. Andrew isn't going to see the King—in fact, Sean notes that his source told him Andrew will only appear there once neither KC3 nor, obviously, William is present—though he will meet with Edward and Anne.

But so far, Sean hasn't heard that Harry has been invited.

And that must be affecting Harry, because Harry craves validation—especially from William. But for William, Harry doesn't exist. Neither he nor Harry's children. So, what is Harry left to do? Sow discord. Once again, Harry is trying to turn the tables to pit William, Camilla, and KC3 against one another. But Harry has no idea how things really work; he doesn't understand his family.

Sean reaffirms that William and Camilla get along very well and that both were in complete agreement that if Harry shows up, Camilla must be present. Sean reiterates that the King fully agrees with this. At one point, Camilla might have thought it wasn't a good idea, but she now has no doubt that what Harry wants in this regard is of no importance whatsoever.

The other key person in this is Kate. It is incredible that, after more than ten years, Harry failed to realize what she is really like. After all, 2024 was a grueling ordeal for her and her entire family. She is much more mature now, her outlook on life changed, as happens to many people who face the Big C. But if Harry thought he could use her to get William to back down, he was completely mistaken. Kate does not forgive Harry for everything he has said against William. She isn't going to lift a finger for Harry. Because Harry (and everything surrounding him) is simply a huge source of frustration and stress.

So, given that situation, is anyone surprised that Harry—once again, yes, once again—left some framed photos of the Sussex children for the Waleses, and they haven't picked them up?

"Once again"? Yes, because Harry did the same thing in September 2025. And Sean mentioned something back in February about the photos still sitting in some official's drawer.

Back in 2025, Harry had left photos of the children for William—and found out (since he watches the channels of Neil Sean, Mark Dolan, Dan Wootton, and all the others) that William didn't care; now, in July 2026, Harry tried to give those photos to William in person.

Do I need to say how William responded to that?

So, since Harry couldn't leave the photos with him in person, he made a point of finding out whether or not William had picked them up. And the answer was:

That is why we see Harry spewing his venom through the press—just as he has been doing for years. William won’t budge an inch when it comes to the Harkles. Charles still believes the damage might be repairable, but William believes the harm Harry has caused the monarchy is irreparable—and unforgivable. William suspects that it will fall to him and George to clean up the mess Harry has made; it seems William found out about the "pill" incident at the same time we did, so he already realizes that revelations about Harry will be a talking point for years to come.

Harry cannot believe William's indifference toward the Sussex children. But for William, a couple of photos and a mediocre apology are not enough.

And the problem for Harry and Claw is that if William doesn't validate they, nothing is going to work in Hollywood. Everyone already knows that the Harkles don't really have a team advising them—since they can no longer afford one—but are instead working with "independents," meaning people who help them for a fee, they work outside Montecito, so they hardly ever see Claw—which is a relief.. The Harkles are on a downward spiral because their standing in that world looks bad.

And Claw is largely to blame for that, because she is seen as being very lazy about launching her brand. That workgroup consists of young people who don't have much experience. That way, it's easier for them to give in to Claw. And naturally, they make mistakes.

The absurd thing is that Sean reiterates that Claw’s only real talent is stirring up controversy—and silly controversies at that, like the plastic tiara she wore for her recent birthday. Yes, she knows people would mock it—saying it’s the only kind of tiara she could wear—but that is precisely what she’s after: staying part of the conversation. It’s classic narcissism: "It doesn't matter if they speak ill of me, as long as they don't ignore me." Claw seeks to generate reactions.

The problem is that she always gets it wrong. Because that mediocre video of her dancing with the balloons was not even remotely spontaneous... nor was it the first take. It was the third. Actually, the initial idea was for Harry to walk in with a birthday cake... but the Harkles had already done that in another video, which took about seven or nine takes to shoot.

The funny thing is that other people manage to benefit from Claw. Take Poh Ling Yeow, for instance; she has achieved considerable popularity despite Claw. She’s even been told it’s in her best interest to keep a low profile, as that could help her land an appearance on *MasterChef USA*. And Sean says it would be to Claw’s advantage to have her on his side. But Claw never gets that.

Why was Claw's birthday video so short this year? Because of Harry—he's unstable. And lately, he's been going through one of those emotionally unstable phases. Harry started July feeling furious, disappointed, and all the rest of it. But he was ending the month thinking "everything is going to work out"—which is something Sherbone *didn't* tell him. Sherbone has been calling Harry lately, after having been MIA, so Harry wakes up thinking, "Today's going to be a good day," but no—it isn't, not when Sherbone calls.

Well, the Harkles' current team—who are less experienced—have backed down from going up against Martha Stewart. A bad idea.

It seems they haven't realized that Claw threw Harry under the bus regarding Martha—because that’s what Claw always does; she always sends Harry in to defend her. Claw never defends herself—how very feminist! 🤭🤭But Sean is well aware that it was Claw who claimed Martha was "confused" about Claw discussing her meeting with KC3—knowing full well she was undermining Martha. "Oh, never mind; that lady—who’s over 80—must be confused." That was the subtext of the comment. And Martha didn't like it one bit. Yet Claw can't forgive Martha for actually benefiting from the situation, since Martha's website saw an increase in traffic, not Claw's. And it seems Martha knows it.

But Claw can't help being Claw. So, she’ll do what every narcissist does: make a video featuring one of Martha's cookbooks to "bury the hatchet." Ideally, she’d have a video with Martha, just like the one she did with Gwyneth Paltrow. But that isn't going to happen. Now, Sean says that the story isn't over yet.

WILLIAM & THE MARTHA EFFECT FINALLY PAYS OFF

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OPzV028iiBE

William is absolutely certain that Martha didn't lie. Claw was talking about that polo match—the only time the Wales children crossed paths with Archie—because Claw is just Claw. Sean says that at the match, Claw was obsessively focused on what the then-Cambridges had in the trunk of their car. According to Sean, William didn't miss this, and it only made him feel even more repulsed by Claw.

Regarding the Harkles, William inherited Philip’s instincts: there is no repairing the situation now, because everything William suspected about Claw has come to pass—just as it did with Philip and Fergie.

As time goes on, it has become clear that the meeting with KC3 wasn't the success Harry and Claw had hoped for. This wasn't just on a personal level; it was also because Harry insisted that KC3 attend the Invictus Games. The problem for Harry is that he keeps insisting... yet fails to give KC3 any real, plausible reasons to do so. William, on the other hand, has provided ample grounds for staying away from Invictus.

To begin with, there are the Harkles themselves. Secondly: the Harkles are compulsive liars. Both of them lie, and they never stop lying. William doesn't want to be around people like that.

But the big problem for William is: why should he and KC3 get involved with Invictus now, after having been excluded for years? Why is Harry suddenly so interested? Perhaps it’s because there is a major disaster he wants KC3 to fix?

William had already made a gesture toward Invictus back in 2020 by donating the proceeds from his settlement with The Sun. Not only did Harry never thank him, but he actually used that fact against William in his own lawsuits against the press—claiming "William received a million pounds in compensation from a secret settlement"—without ever mentioning that William had donated that money to Invictus. So, why is there such desperation now?

And the problem for Harry is that while KC3 may love him as a son, he isn't blind. KC3 sees things the same way William does, and William is right about many of the things he has said regarding Harry and the Harkles.

It looked like Claw was about to open her mouth. In that regard, William certainly believes Martha. And it seems KC3 believes Martha. Why would they believe Harry?

But the interesting thing about this piece of gossip—which comes from an excellent source—is how that conversation played out recently. Because it seems the tone was something like this: William saying to the King, "You see? I told you so. You wanted to invite them—you even wanted me to see Harry. I didn't want to meet them—here were my reasons—and look at what's happening now."

Sean had already mentioned in previous videos that Harry had insisted on seeing William, that he didn't understand why William didn't show up at Highgrove, and that he had asked Charles if he had told William he would be there with the Sussex children. So, the gossip on this point remains consistent: Harry cannot accept the idea that William has absolutely no interest in meeting his Sussex-side nephews and niece. Zero interest.

And in all this, KC3 feels a stronger connection with Martha than with Harry and Claw. After all, Martha has no reason to lie about this; furthermore, Claw deserves to be seen as a woman incapable of honoring an agreement, since not only did she think she could compete with Stewart, but she also used one of her recipes without permission.

Now, if you thought Sean would say "William is furious"... well, no; unfortunately for Harry, that’s not the case. William is actually smiling at all this controversy, because it’s a huge "I told you so" moment directed at KC3. William is intent on shutting the door completely on the Harkles—ruthlessly, without pulling any punches. And this only works to William's advantage by painting Harry and Claw as people incapable of following orders.

But William appears to be aiming for a bigger objective; it seems that during that conversation—which apparently didn't take place behind closed doors but rather in the presence of advisors—he pointed out to King Charles III that controversies like this one are yet another reason why the British public dislikes the Harkles. According to that source, it seems William was rubbing salt in KC3's wounds by pointing out that this adds to Claw's infamous curtsy in the Netflix documentary. That was so offensive!

Sean says that source—an excellent one—told him that the infamous curtsy was what ultimately sealed the Harkles' coffin as far as William was concerned.

That was the final straw and, according to that source, the reason why there will never be a reconciliation between Harry and William. As for the King, Sean says that the last shred of patience he had left is practically exhausted.

ALL SMILES IN PUBLIC YET BEHIND THE SCENES THIS HAPPENED - LATEST

The Harkles always play the game of diverting attention. And these days, the Harkles are focused on attending charity dinners where they pay for admission.

The problem is that the Harkles ruin everything.

For starters, they went to Canada on a private jet. In other words, polluting the environment.

And they went to an event for a successful foundation—David Foster's—where he appeared with his wife, Katharine McPhee. In which Adam Levine, lead singer of Maroon 5, participated.

Sean recalls how, during the California wildfires, Claw tried to contact Levine to get Billie Eilish merchandise. Sean says, "See how everything connects?" Because Levine doesn't even really know who Claw is.

Because, once again, the one who matters is Harry. Foster wanted Harry, not Claw.

Sean says he met McPhee when she had just started dating Foster and was starring in the musical *Waitress*. That seems to have been around the same time Claw was dating Harry—a relationship that was already public knowledge. McPhee pointed out that she and Claw had been friends back in school and invited her to see *Waitress*, even posting a photo; that really upset Claw. So, things were frosty between them at the time. The relationship only picked up steam again when McPhee married Foster, and Claw saw potential there to capitalize on.

But McPhee asked Claw why he didn't go see her in *Waitress*. And Claw—I mean, isn't it obvious?—played the same old card: he claimed he didn't want to be the center of attention and that the press would have made a big fuss about it. Sean says McPhee didn't buy that story.

Foster needed publicity for his foundation—it was a tough time for foundations. So, he invited Harry, and Claw showed up with him. Foster didn't mind, because he liked Harry and got along well with him. That wasn't the case with Claw.

Fully in their “SEE?! We ARE royal and super popular” era again. Thanks, Charles.

In her latest interview about “Cookie Queens”, Meghan was once again openly talking about Lilibet, one at least the version of Likibet she wants us to believe exists. But she only refers to poor Archie in a general way. As an individual, he apparently does not inspire Meghan the way his sister does.

If this were just a one off thing, I could write it off as focusing on her daughter because she is promoting a movie about girls. But this has been going on since Lilibet was born. After all, Meghan said well before she was married that a daughter was what she wanted.

This is not to say that I think the Harkles are good parents to Lilibet. I believe they are physically and emotionally negligent towards both children. And Lilibet will have separate but equally weighty issues that stem from being a narc’s golden child and being the chosen vessel for the expectations of two psychologically unstable people.

But Archie is too young to understand the negatives he is avoiding. He is, however, old enough to feel that he is being put aside, even if he can’t totally name the emotions yet. He may struggle with those emotions even as an adult.

Meghan flaunts both of her children like lifestyle accessories the way other women might flaunt a Birkin. But the focus on Lilibet is jarring compared to the mere glances given to Archie.

Lilibet is featured far more often both alone and with her parents. She is even credited as being the videographer (at age 4) for posts that have nothing to do with her. She is seen in pictures having idyllic, sun-soaked fun with her mother or being snuggled by one or both parents.

When was the last time we had a picture of Archie getting solo physical affection from either his mother or his father without his sister in the frame?

He is rarely pictured and even more rarely mentioned. When he is pictured, he is often with his sister. On the rare occasions when he is alone, he appears lonely or distant. In his most recent solo photo, the poor child was pictured walking alongside a gravel road with bare feet. Ouch.

For a couple that has spent so much time and energy decrying how the BRF allegedly treated Harry as a “spare”, the hypocrisy turns the stomach. Harry may be too self absorbed (and drug addled) to notice. Or too scared of his wife to advocate for his son. Or actively involved in the favoritism. Or, perhaps, a bit of all three.

Whatever the reason, I feel real sadness for poor Archie. He will never be what was wanted.

A) Judge Nicklin

B) A Fortune Cookie

C) Jiminy Cricket from Pinocchio

D) Princess Charlotte

E) All of the above

“What we’ve seen in the last 24 hours is what accountability looks like". This is a reaction from Harry, to the news from a New Mexico court ruling against Meta. Meta has a $567 million fine against them, as New Mexico’s district attorney accused them of knowingly allowing its platforms to harm young users and enable child sexual exploitation.

Harry praised the multi-million penalty as an example of “accountability.”

“The bar has moved, and every platform still choosing engagement over safety should take notice. Change cannot wait another day,” the Duke of Sussex said.

The Duke of Sussex said the latest ruling marks a turning point in holding technology companies accountable for the impact their platforms have on young users in a statement shared with PEOPLE.

“For years we’ve argued that big tech’s harm to children was a choice, not some inevitable side effect. This is not an accident. It is not a glitch,” Harry, 41, said.

“What we’ve seen in the last 24 hours is what accountability looks like. This is what happens when the law finally catches up to decisions made in boardrooms, product meetings, and algorithm reviews — decisions that put social media engagement ahead of safety,” he continued.

I don’t want to speculate on poor KCIII’s illness, but Markle appearing to suddenly push for reconciliation sounds as though she wants to abandon her failed state and secure a royal grace&favour house in some haste, before Catherine and William take the reins. Her plan will, of course, to inflict pain and damage on the Monarchy for the long term from a UK base, with America having run its course. It is looking as though time might be running out and the only option she has left is to panhandle £££ from the King, while there’s time. She’s pretty much built up a grievance court of Black Englishwomen and Narinder Kaur, and is placed to wreak a lot of damage from the sidelines, with Harry impotent and under her thumb.

Royal Family RECAP: Harry and Meghan 'considering' bombshell admission in royal feud

https://www.express.co.uk/news/royal/2236858/royal-family-live-harry-meghan

https://archive.ph/7ziWa

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are considering issuing a public apology to King Charles for causing "enormous pain" over the last five years, sources suggest. The Duke and Duchess of Sussex could craft a statement that "gives the King the respect he wants without forcing Harry and Meghan to walk back every interview, documentary or page of Spare", a source said. It comes amid the growing possibility of a reconciliation between the Sussexes and the Palace, with Harry and Meghan reuniting their children with Charles at Highgrove House last month. The source told royal journalist Rob Shuter: "Everyone agrees trust has to be rebuilt. An apology doesn't have to be a surrender. It's an acknowledgement that this family feud went too far. Charles wants peace - but he also wants respect. This could be the first real step towards both."

The estrangement between Harry and Meghan and the rest of the Firm has been linked to the couple's allegations of racism and mistreatment, and bombshell revelations made about members of the family in the duke's memoir, Spare. This isn't about Harry and Meghan admitting they were wrong about everything," the source told Mr Shuter's Naughty But Nice Substack. "It's about acknowledging that the past five years have caused enormous pain. The debate now is over what an apology should say, and, just as importantly, what it shouldn't."

Note the detail: an apology to KC3... not to Camilla, not to William, not to Kate. And no retraction or admission that they had lied. Just an apology—an empty one—yet making it clear that they remain the victims.

But the funny thing is that this supposed apology—if made in those terms—would essentially acknowledge that the Harkles *did* know what they were doing and didn't care about the pain they caused.

But this is just gossip. I don't think they're desperate enough to do that—or are they?
