Those giggles are genuine happiness.

Glad to see them growing in a healthy & nurturing family with a touch of normality & great support outside royalty from the Middleton sides.

It was just last year, that Prince William was invited to give an articulated and informed speech at the london climate week, at COP26 in Rio de Janeiro and the Blue Economy and Finance Forum in Monaco as President and founder of the Earthshot prize👌🏽
In Rio de Janeiro last year, he also gave another speech as the United for Wildlife summit as President and founder of the United for Wildlife and discussed the work done by UFW in toward that goal.
Today, Prince William was invited to speak on the Innovation to Impact panel at the Olympia London Tech Week, as founder and presdident of Homewards UK, to discuss how data and technology help in preventing homelessness, alongside some of the world’s leading tech voices👌🏽
Well then, when William talks about "his work", this is his actual work OUTSIDE of being a royal. This is his professional curriculum, those 3 national and international projects that he runs successfully.
And that is why it is very ignorant to compare him to other senior royals such as his Princess Anne and call him "workshy" because he does not do as many royal engagements as her.
ALL Princess Anne does as work are royal engagements. However, royal engagements are NOT all William does as work🔥
On top of his royal duties and responsibilities as Heir, on top of his patronages that are common to other working royals, William has a singular professional life as Presiding over these three core initiatives, Earthshot prize, UFW and Homewards UK;
He also has his responsibilities as Duke of Cornwall to run the billion pound duchy with all the problems to solve;
Put that in perspective and you realise that there is a great deal of work that goes behind running all these successfully, hundreds and hundreds of employees to manage, many meetings to attend, investors to meet, innovations to keep abreast off, and numerous problems arising in all directions..🔥
Yet where Most men in his position would focus on work and neglect the family side, William has found the perfect balance where he built his busy work schedule around his children's schedule, so he can still be a present as a father and do the home school runs with his wife, and take his children on holidays as well.
He also make time to enjoy some downtime with his mates and watch an Aston Villa football game.🤗
This does not describe a man who is "lazy" or "workshy". This is rather the protrait of a very disciplined, organised and intelligent man, who knows how to effectively prioritise in life so he can get everything done well and successfully. And that is the credibility that he has on the world stage🔥

Highlighting the role of data and technology in preventing homelessness at London Tech Week

In 1995, Catherine's parents had to pull her out from prep school and move her to a new school midterm, after she was viciously bullied. Her friend Gemma W. said of her sudden arrival:
"At 14, Catherine arrived suddenly at Malbourough. Apparently, she was bullied very badly at her previous boarding school and had to be pulled out. She looked very thin and pale, Shy and insular. She never spoke of her ordeal, and the identity of those who targeted her"😔
Indeed, Catherine was very introverted and rather than dwell on her pain, focused on adapting to her new school. She flourished, excelling in class and at sports and went on to be voted "person most likely to be loved by everybody" and got accepted to the exclusive Private university of St Andrews, where she met her future husband😍
Her friend Helen H said:
"Catherine arrived at Malbourough certainly looking very thin and pale. She had very little confidence and would cry herself to sleep at night. But she left here securing two A grades and a B at A Level and as one of the most attractive girls in the school."🥹☺️
In 2005, 8 years later, Catherine fell victim to harrassment and bullying yet again, this time at the National level by the press and paparazzi, after her identity as William's girlfriend was revealed to the world. Once Again, she endured with quiet dignity and a maturity bellying her young age of 23. After 5 years of Press abuse and a major breakup, Love won at last and Catherine married her Prince😍❤️
It was quite significant that When she finally married William, Catherine asked her guests to donate to "Beatbullying", a charity who gave a voice and supported survivors of bullying, instead of giving her wedding gifts❤️🥹
Fast forward now as a Royal, the harrasment and bullying that she endured from Meghan and harry for the past 5 years simply because to meg, she is just "The perfect Stepford wife" and meg felt "slighted" because she deserved more of the spotlight due to her "carreer"🤡
When asked why Catherine was bullied as a teenager, Helen Hay her schoolmate replied "because she was too perfect so she was picked on."🤡
In the same manner, the press harrassed and bullied her with cruel nicknames because she was scandal free🤡
Hating someone because she holds herself to a higher standard of moral character is called bitter jealousy.
In Contrast, Meghan gets backlash for her own mean words and actions. She is a Proven Liar who cannot get along with anyone and uses and discard everyone: her ex husband, her ex friends, her staff, her own father and sister and the royal family🔥
But because she is a narcissist, she choose to blame her victims of Racism, rather than take accountability for her own vileness.
Catherine knows all about being a victim of bullying and vile abuse. She just chose Resilience over Victimhood; And that is why, to me, she is an inspiring symbol of feminine grace under fire. As the Press recently dubbed her: "The steel in velvet gloves"❤️#LionessofWindsor

Meghan Markle basically admitted in her Netflix series that she wears a mask in public.

While she slammed William and Catherine for being too formal when she first met them, she inadvertently paid them the highest compliment: they’re exactly the same in private as they are on duty. There’s no performance.

Naturally, the royals carry themselves with dignity and poise while the world is watching, but Meghan’s comment just shows William and Catherine are being their authentic selves. They don’t switch it on and off. What you see is what you get.

Meghan also confused distrust for formality. She assumed William and Catherine would fall for her love bombing. Meghan likes to invade people’s personal space with forced hugs, but William and Catherine have boundaries. They didn’t just melt under her charm offensive. They weren’t simply going to accept her love-bombing and forced familiarity, with or without her bare feet and ripped jeans.😜

The Duchess of Edinburgh, joined by The Duke of Edinburgh, unveiled ‘The Plants with Purpose Garden’ at The Royal Windsor Flower Show this week.

🌳 Co‑designed by Her Royal Highness and Alan Williams, the garden showcases the importance of healthy soil, planting for pollinators, and encouraging people to consider more thoughtfully how food is grown.

The Duchess joined dedicated volunteers to help build the garden in the days before the show.

🌻This summer, the plants and garden features will be repurposed for local schools participating in a new RWHS Nature Studies Programme, extending the garden’s impact into outdoor learning.

Also In attendance at Peter & Harriet Phillips Royal wedding yesterday were Rupert Finch, Catherine's first university boyfriend before she fell in love with Prince William, accompanied by his wife of 13 years, Lady Natasha Rufus Isaac🤗
Some may have noticed that she was wearing the exact Beulah London dress Catherine wore 3 years ago to watch William play his annual polo charity match.
Well, there is nothing odd there, Natasha is actually Co-founder of the brand Beulah London and Catherine is a close friend of hers and has supported her brand throughout the years by wearing numerous Beulah London dresses😍
So yes, there is nothing odd there. In Catherine and Natasha's case, this is a story of your ex, (albeit hot ex), marries a good friend of yours and you literally marry your Prince charming and everyone live their happily ever after❤️

“What an honour it was to create these bespoke earrings for Her Royal Highness The Princess of Wales.

“🐝 the enduring symbol of Manchester, they represent unity, resilience and community, values that make the city so special.

“To see her wear them again for the second time is so profoundly meaningful. I am forever grateful.”

⛵️During a visit to Portsmouth, HRH met staff, volunteers, and young people involved with Tall Ships Youth Trust, a youth development and outdoor learning charity, and toured the new vessel before it sets sail on its first adventures.

The Daily Mail reports "Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie have never personally paid a penny in rent, despite living in exclusive palace properties for nearly two decades."
"A report by the National Audit Office has laid bare some of the cosy deals that working – and non-working – royals have benefited from when it comes to residences. These include Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor's two daughters, who perform no royal duties, but have been secretly subsidised for years by their grandmother Queen Elizabeth and now by their uncle King Charles."👌🏽
"Both women have their own careers, high-flying husbands and multi-million-pound homes elsewhere and are sure to face questions about why they could not pay their own way"🫠
Well, the Monarch can do what he wants with his private money and take care of whom he chooses so there is nothing illegal or truly scandalous here. HOWEVER, what this demonstrate once again is that an Apple tree can only produce apples👌🏽
Fergie and Andrew, a couple known for their abysmal moral character, entitlement to privileges and low class gritfing ways, were NEVER going to raise daughters to be anything but grifters themselves.
As my darling Nan likes to say: "One cannot teach others what One never learned to start with"🔥
Yes the late Queen and the King may have offered to pay for the princesses' rent out of love and affection for over 2 decades, but truly at what point in life does One stops grifting off an uncle or a grandmother?🤡
This reflects very poorly on Beatrice and Eugenie, educated, professional women gainfully employed, married, mothers, and STILL refusing to pay their own rent which they can afford😵‍💫
The irony of all this becoming public is that with the Andrew scandal, the press started digging into Royal finances but their main target was Prince William🔥
They were looking for dirt in his very private finances, to have a juicy scandal to publish on him. What they found out however is that he truly stands head and shoulders above the rest😏
Indeed, the future king who would have been expected to be the most spoiled one, the most entitled one and the one to benefit the most from every privileges entitled to his position, is the one living frugally by royal standard;
He is the one paying one of the highest income taxes in the country;
he is the one paying rent at full market value👌🏽
Thus, one of the best decisions KC made was to oppose making Beatrice and Eugenie working royals.
In view of all we have learned about the York family in the past few months, their consistent lack of integrity and their accute penchant for the easy life and grifting, it is clear that the entire house of York is a hard pass☕️
