00:00:03.200 --> 00:00:10.400
<v Speaker 1>Calorogus Shark Media Today, the journalists behind the Vanity Fair

2
00:00:10.439 --> 00:00:13.400
<v Speaker 1>piece shares what she thinks about Harry and Meghan Some

3
00:00:13.480 --> 00:00:16.239
<v Speaker 1>runners get surprised by the King in a motion for

4
00:00:16.280 --> 00:00:23.760
<v Speaker 1>the King to change supermarkets. Hello and Welcome to Palace

5
00:00:23.800 --> 00:00:28.879
<v Speaker 1>Intrigue and host Mark Francis, Vanity Fair journalist and appeal

6
00:00:29.320 --> 00:00:32.039
<v Speaker 1>whose recent feature on Prince Harry and Meghan Markle has

7
00:00:32.039 --> 00:00:35.119
<v Speaker 1>been labeled a hit piece by their supporters, has shared

8
00:00:35.119 --> 00:00:38.079
<v Speaker 1>her insights into the couple's journey in the challenges they face.

9
00:00:38.600 --> 00:00:41.759
<v Speaker 1>In a TikTok video, Peal reflected on the Sussex's efforts

10
00:00:41.799 --> 00:00:44.920
<v Speaker 1>to carve out a new role for themselves after stepping

11
00:00:44.920 --> 00:00:47.719
<v Speaker 1>away from royal duties. She noted that while the Duke

12
00:00:47.719 --> 00:00:50.880
<v Speaker 1>and Duchess of Sussex have launched ambitious ventures such as

13
00:00:51.000 --> 00:00:55.560
<v Speaker 1>Archwell Productions and the Archwell Foundation, their ultimate purpose remains unclear.

14
00:00:55.960 --> 00:00:58.240
<v Speaker 1>They seem to genuinely want to make the world a

15
00:00:58.359 --> 00:01:01.640
<v Speaker 1>better place, Pill remarked, but we're not sure exactly what

16
00:01:01.679 --> 00:01:05.319
<v Speaker 1>that means yet. Coming off Megan's Week of Bad Press,

17
00:01:05.359 --> 00:01:09.200
<v Speaker 1>pr expert Renee Smith tells the Express my advice to

18
00:01:09.280 --> 00:01:12.560
<v Speaker 1>my clients, Ninety percent of the time is to avoid

19
00:01:12.640 --> 00:01:15.840
<v Speaker 1>engaging with negative news cycles unless there is a direct,

20
00:01:16.000 --> 00:01:20.480
<v Speaker 1>irrefutable evidence like a video hardcore proof that demands a response.

21
00:01:21.319 --> 00:01:25.280
<v Speaker 1>Research shows that unproven allegations often fade from public consciousness

22
00:01:25.560 --> 00:01:29.760
<v Speaker 1>much faster when left unaddressed, as engaging can inadvertently extend

23
00:01:29.879 --> 00:01:34.560
<v Speaker 1>the media cycle and draw more attention to the claims. Sadly,

24
00:01:34.640 --> 00:01:37.760
<v Speaker 1>Megan Minkle's foray into podcasting has hit another snag as

25
00:01:37.760 --> 00:01:42.159
<v Speaker 1>her latest series with Lemonada Media faces delays. According to Hello,

26
00:01:42.319 --> 00:01:45.799
<v Speaker 1>the episodes were postponed, similarly to her previous with Love

27
00:01:45.920 --> 00:01:49.920
<v Speaker 1>Megan series, following the Duchess's decision to prioritize support for

28
00:01:49.920 --> 00:01:54.359
<v Speaker 1>those affected by the devastating California wildfires. Megan emphasized that

29
00:01:54.400 --> 00:01:57.439
<v Speaker 1>she wanted to focus on the needs of those impacted,

30
00:01:57.560 --> 00:02:01.920
<v Speaker 1>putting her podcasting plans on whole. This setback comes nearly

31
00:02:01.959 --> 00:02:05.000
<v Speaker 1>a year after Megan announced her partnership with Lemonadea Media,

32
00:02:05.120 --> 00:02:08.240
<v Speaker 1>where she expressed excitement about continuing her love of podcasting.

33
00:02:08.879 --> 00:02:11.360
<v Speaker 1>The move followed the high profile collapse of her and

34
00:02:11.400 --> 00:02:14.520
<v Speaker 1>Prince Harry's reported twenty five million dollar Spotify deal in

35
00:02:14.560 --> 00:02:18.319
<v Speaker 1>twenty twenty three. That agreement signed in twenty twenty under

36
00:02:18.319 --> 00:02:23.439
<v Speaker 1>their Archball Audio brand, resulted in just one podcast series, Archetypes,

37
00:02:23.520 --> 00:02:28.080
<v Speaker 1>which featured twelve episodes hosted by Megan. Despite an initial

38
00:02:28.199 --> 00:02:31.800
<v Speaker 1>joint statement from Spotify and Archwall Audio in June of

39
00:02:31.800 --> 00:02:35.120
<v Speaker 1>twenty twenty three, citing a mutual agreement to part ways,

40
00:02:35.360 --> 00:02:39.599
<v Speaker 1>reports suggested the split wasn't entirely amicable. Sources claimed the

41
00:02:39.759 --> 00:02:44.159
<v Speaker 1>couple fell short of meeting productivity expectations required to unlock

42
00:02:44.240 --> 00:02:47.120
<v Speaker 1>their full payout, As reported by The Wall Street Journal,

43
00:02:48.639 --> 00:02:52.639
<v Speaker 1>Charles surprised participants at the Sandringham Park Run event on Saturday,

44
00:02:52.719 --> 00:02:55.240
<v Speaker 1>joining them for a morning of celebration at the Sandringham

45
00:02:55.360 --> 00:02:58.800
<v Speaker 1>Visitor Center. Wearing cream trouser's brown coat and shoes, the

46
00:02:58.840 --> 00:03:01.599
<v Speaker 1>Monarch joined the runners, walkers for t and KKE as

47
00:03:01.639 --> 00:03:05.120
<v Speaker 1>they marked the one year anniversary of the Sandringham five

48
00:03:05.199 --> 00:03:09.080
<v Speaker 1>K Your Way Move against Cancer initiative. On the official

49
00:03:09.199 --> 00:03:12.560
<v Speaker 1>park Run UK page, a post celebrating the occasion read

50
00:03:13.000 --> 00:03:15.360
<v Speaker 1>not every day you get Royal approval at park Run

51
00:03:15.479 --> 00:03:18.439
<v Speaker 1>This morning, His Majesty the King joined Sandringham park Runners

52
00:03:18.439 --> 00:03:22.039
<v Speaker 1>in the cafe to offer his congratulations, including to the

53
00:03:22.080 --> 00:03:24.599
<v Speaker 1>Sandringham five K Your Way group as they marked their

54
00:03:24.639 --> 00:03:29.120
<v Speaker 1>one year anniversary. On Monday, Charles Marte historic moment as

55
00:03:29.159 --> 00:03:32.319
<v Speaker 1>the first British head of state to visit Auschwitz Berkenou

56
00:03:32.879 --> 00:03:36.400
<v Speaker 1>attending a profoundly moving ceremony to commemorate the eightieth anniversary

57
00:03:36.400 --> 00:03:39.560
<v Speaker 1>of the concentration camps liberation. The seventy six year old

58
00:03:39.560 --> 00:03:42.520
<v Speaker 1>monarch was visibly emotional, wiping away a tear as he

59
00:03:42.599 --> 00:03:47.080
<v Speaker 1>joined world leaders, European royals and Holocaust survivors to honor

60
00:03:47.120 --> 00:03:50.560
<v Speaker 1>the memory of the millions who perished there. The ceremony,

61
00:03:50.599 --> 00:03:53.280
<v Speaker 1>held in front of the notorious gates, bearing the phrase

62
00:03:53.759 --> 00:03:58.680
<v Speaker 1>work sets you Free, brought together dignitaries from many European nations. Survivors,

63
00:03:58.719 --> 00:04:01.360
<v Speaker 1>many now in their eighties and nine, also attended, sharing

64
00:04:01.360 --> 00:04:04.879
<v Speaker 1>their resilience in the face of unimaginable horror. Earlier in

65
00:04:04.919 --> 00:04:07.879
<v Speaker 1>the day, King Charles visited the Jewish Community Center in Krakow,

66
00:04:08.319 --> 00:04:11.159
<v Speaker 1>where he met Holocaust survivors and delivered a heartfelt speech.

67
00:04:11.719 --> 00:04:14.520
<v Speaker 1>He condemned violence and hatred, paid tribute to the six

68
00:04:14.560 --> 00:04:17.519
<v Speaker 1>million Jews murdered during the Holocaust, and honored the memories

69
00:04:17.519 --> 00:04:20.920
<v Speaker 1>of other groups targeted by the Nazi regime, including roma

70
00:04:21.120 --> 00:04:26.240
<v Speaker 1>disabled individuals, members of the OGBTQ plus community and political prisoners.

71
00:04:27.079 --> 00:04:30.759
<v Speaker 1>Charles remarked the responsibility of remembrance prests far heavier on

72
00:04:30.800 --> 00:04:33.920
<v Speaker 1>our shoulders, emphasizing that remembering the atrocities of the past

73
00:04:34.000 --> 00:04:37.480
<v Speaker 1>is a vital task. He praised Holocaust survivors for teaching

74
00:04:37.480 --> 00:04:40.360
<v Speaker 1>the world to cherish our freedom, to challenge prejudice, and

75
00:04:40.399 --> 00:04:42.560
<v Speaker 1>never to be a bystander in the face of violence

76
00:04:42.560 --> 00:04:51.040
<v Speaker 1>and hate. Palacentry will be right back. Kate Middleton may

77
00:04:51.079 --> 00:04:53.759
<v Speaker 1>soon add a new accolade to her royal resume, the

78
00:04:53.839 --> 00:04:56.839
<v Speaker 1>power to grant Royal warrants. If it happens, the Princess

79
00:04:56.839 --> 00:04:58.519
<v Speaker 1>of Wales would be the first in one hundred and

80
00:04:58.560 --> 00:05:01.560
<v Speaker 1>fifteen years to hold such an honor. The Royal Family's

81
00:05:01.600 --> 00:05:04.560
<v Speaker 1>website describes a Royal warrant as a mark of recognition

82
00:05:04.720 --> 00:05:08.240
<v Speaker 1>given by senior Royals to businesses or individuals that supply

83
00:05:08.319 --> 00:05:11.439
<v Speaker 1>goods or services to the royal household. Essentially, it's the

84
00:05:11.519 --> 00:05:14.399
<v Speaker 1>Royal seal of approval and a major coup for any brand.

85
00:05:14.959 --> 00:05:17.839
<v Speaker 1>Several Royal insiders say Charles is eager to grant this

86
00:05:17.959 --> 00:05:21.600
<v Speaker 1>privilege to his daughter in law. British broadcaster Helena Chard

87
00:05:21.680 --> 00:05:24.959
<v Speaker 1>told Fox News Digital. King Charles is extremely fond of

88
00:05:24.959 --> 00:05:27.319
<v Speaker 1>his loving and resilient daughter in law. He holds her

89
00:05:27.319 --> 00:05:29.920
<v Speaker 1>in high esteem. I'm sure he will be honoured to

90
00:05:29.959 --> 00:05:33.959
<v Speaker 1>implement a major royal first. The last Princess of Wales

91
00:05:34.000 --> 00:05:36.439
<v Speaker 1>to issue royal warrants was Queen Mary before her husband

92
00:05:36.480 --> 00:05:39.720
<v Speaker 1>George the Fifth took the throne in nineteen ten. Royal

93
00:05:39.759 --> 00:05:42.720
<v Speaker 1>expert Hillary Fordage noted that the honour would reflect charles

94
00:05:42.800 --> 00:05:45.720
<v Speaker 1>faith in Kate. As she continues to take on increasing responsibilities,

95
00:05:46.040 --> 00:05:49.839
<v Speaker 1>She'll have increasing influence as she's being groomed for such responsibilities.

96
00:05:50.040 --> 00:05:53.879
<v Speaker 1>This is due to her poise, intelligence, tact and reliability

97
00:05:53.959 --> 00:05:58.600
<v Speaker 1>as Charles gradually delegates responsibilities to the next generation. Kate's

98
00:05:58.600 --> 00:06:01.839
<v Speaker 1>influence on the fashion world has been well documented. The

99
00:06:01.959 --> 00:06:04.759
<v Speaker 1>so called Kate Effect is estimated to be worth over

100
00:06:04.879 --> 00:06:09.240
<v Speaker 1>one billion dollars in sales for British fashion brands. Designers

101
00:06:09.279 --> 00:06:13.000
<v Speaker 1>like Alexander McQueen, Katherine Walker and Jenny Packhan have benefited

102
00:06:13.040 --> 00:06:17.079
<v Speaker 1>greatly from Kate's wardrobe choices over the years. Ian Pelham Turner,

103
00:06:17.120 --> 00:06:20.199
<v Speaker 1>another royal expert, pointed out the economic impact of Kate's

104
00:06:20.240 --> 00:06:23.120
<v Speaker 1>style her endorsements by using a product or outfit have

105
00:06:23.160 --> 00:06:27.439
<v Speaker 1>already purportedly been valued at approximately four billion pounds or

106
00:06:27.480 --> 00:06:31.800
<v Speaker 1>almost five billion dollars to the British fashion industry. Sources

107
00:06:31.800 --> 00:06:33.959
<v Speaker 1>close to Kate say she is keen to recognize British

108
00:06:34.040 --> 00:06:36.480
<v Speaker 1>skills and industry in granting royal warrants would be a

109
00:06:36.519 --> 00:06:40.439
<v Speaker 1>meaningful way to support businesses close to her heart. Chard added,

110
00:06:40.600 --> 00:06:42.600
<v Speaker 1>you see the positive knock on effect. It's a win

111
00:06:42.720 --> 00:06:45.639
<v Speaker 1>win situation. What a coup receiving a royal warrant from

112
00:06:45.639 --> 00:06:49.920
<v Speaker 1>the world's favorite British royal. Leedle has boldly pitched itself

113
00:06:49.959 --> 00:06:52.800
<v Speaker 1>to King Charles as a contender to replace Weight Rose

114
00:06:52.800 --> 00:06:55.800
<v Speaker 1>as the royal supermarket of choice, hoping to secure a

115
00:06:55.839 --> 00:06:59.279
<v Speaker 1>coveted royal warrant. In an open letter shared on social media,

116
00:06:59.480 --> 00:07:03.680
<v Speaker 1>the budget only supermarket detailed its merits, emphasizing cost savings

117
00:07:03.680 --> 00:07:06.959
<v Speaker 1>and quality offerings. Leedle argued that the King could make

118
00:07:07.000 --> 00:07:10.160
<v Speaker 1>significant savings on his weekly shop, reportedly over one hundred

119
00:07:10.160 --> 00:07:13.639
<v Speaker 1>pounds by switching from Weight Rose. The letter humorously touched

120
00:07:13.639 --> 00:07:17.600
<v Speaker 1>on the monarch's dietary preferences, noting Leedle's readiness to supply

121
00:07:17.680 --> 00:07:20.519
<v Speaker 1>his favorite items from British grass fed beef and organic

122
00:07:20.600 --> 00:07:24.319
<v Speaker 1>free range eggs to Musley and his beloved Highland single

123
00:07:24.399 --> 00:07:27.759
<v Speaker 1>malt whiskey. The supermarket even touted its crusty sour dough

124
00:07:27.800 --> 00:07:31.480
<v Speaker 1>Ryan Award winning Ben Bracken whiskey is Royal worthy essentials.

125
00:07:31.920 --> 00:07:35.240
<v Speaker 1>Leedle wrote, those weekly Waightrose bills will be pretty hefty,

126
00:07:35.240 --> 00:07:37.040
<v Speaker 1>and we feel it's our duty to let you know

127
00:07:37.120 --> 00:07:39.399
<v Speaker 1>you could be making a huge saving with a simple switch.

128
00:07:39.480 --> 00:07:43.399
<v Speaker 1>To Leedle, just ask how many fans and there you

129
