Speaker 1: Calarogu Shark Media. Hello and welcome to Palace Intrigue. I'm
Speaker 1: Deep Crown filling in for Mark Francis today, who seems
Speaker 1: to have come down with a hum little bug. So
Speaker 1: King Charles obviously heard people complaining he hadn't addressed the riots.
Speaker 1: Charles has praised the community spirit and compassion that have
Speaker 1: emerged in response to the recent riots. According to Buckingham Palace.
Speaker 1: A Palace spokesman conveyed the King's heartfelt thanks to the
Speaker 1: police and emergency services for all they are doing to
Speaker 1: restore peace in those areas that have been affected by
Speaker 1: violent disorder. In his message, the King acknowledged the aggression
Speaker 1: and criminality on display during the riots, but emphasized the
Speaker 1: positive response from communities coming together. In a call for unity,
Speaker 1: King Charles expressed his hope that the shared values of
Speaker 1: mutual respect and understanding will continue to strengthen and unite
Speaker 1: the nation. Royal expert Tom Quinn tells The Mirror Harry
Speaker 1: is increasingly bored and looking back across the Atlantic, where
Speaker 1: most of his army and school friends still live and
Speaker 1: whom he never sees because they won't visit him in
Speaker 1: the States because they find Megan difficult. They are finding
Speaker 1: it difficult to get through the days and weeks of
Speaker 1: not having much to do. Megan is hugely driven, but
Speaker 1: she can hardly blame him for not being a commercial
Speaker 1: whiz kid, as he has only ever been trained to
Speaker 1: be a royal. Harry doesn't really have very much to
Speaker 1: do on a day to day basis. After he's taken
Speaker 1: the dog for a walk and may be gone for
Speaker 1: a drive, he has nothing to do other than support Megan. Megan,
Speaker 1: on the other hand, needs someone who has serious determination
Speaker 1: to succeed in the world. This has led to huge tensions.
Speaker 1: Royal expert Jenny Bond adds, I think we can say
Speaker 1: that it must be tough for Harry to have lost
Speaker 1: touch with virtually all his old circle of friends as
Speaker 1: well as his family, but we must assume that he
Speaker 1: feels that sacrifices were for the life he now has
Speaker 1: with the woman he loves and the children he adores.
Speaker 1: Meghan Markel's launch of her Dog Biscuits and jam brand
Speaker 1: American Riviera Orchard has encountered a significant hurdle due to
Speaker 1: trademark issues. Reports indicate that the brand's trademark application submitted
Speaker 1: four months ago has been flagged by the U S
Speaker 1: Patents and Trademark's Office for irregularities that need to be corrected.
Speaker 1: These irregularities reportedly involve the incorrect classification of certain products
Speaker 1: such as yoga blankets, picnic baskets, and recipe books. The
Speaker 1: Daily Mail reported that Meghan and Prince Harry's legal team
Speaker 1: have been informed of the issues and that the fees
Speaker 1: associated with these corrections could total around eleven thousand dollars. However,
Speaker 1: The Daily Express has clarified that receiving notices of irregularity
Speaker 1: and requests for clarifications is a standard part of the
Speaker 1: international trademark filing process. All necessary fees have already been
Speaker 1: paid and no further action is currently required from Megan's side.
Speaker 1: While this setback has delayed the anticipated launch of ro,
Speaker 1: it seems the situation is under control and the brand's
Speaker 1: debut is still expected to proceed once the trademark issues
Speaker 1: are resolved, which is good because we like reporting important
Speaker 1: royal news such as Megan releasing a new picnic basket.
Speaker 1: Prince William is reportedly furious that his brother Harry is
Speaker 1: set to receive a significant sum of money in the
Speaker 1: coming weeks. Sources claim that Harry is poised to inherit
Speaker 1: seven million pounds from a trust set up by their
Speaker 1: great great grandmother, the Queen Mother, upon turning forty on
Speaker 1: September fifteenth. Unlike William, who benefits from the Duchy of
Speaker 1: Cornwall wealth, Harry will receive a larger share of this inheritance.
Speaker 1: A source told Closer, William's pretty disgusted that once again
Speaker 1: Harry's going to be cashing out and taking millions back
Speaker 1: to his Montecito home without lifting a finger for it.
Speaker 1: There's nothing he can do about it, aside from shaking
Speaker 1: his head. But if it were up to him, Harry
Speaker 1: would not be getting this payday. William doesn't think his
Speaker 1: brother is in any position to be getting this hand out,
Speaker 1: and he's letting it be known that he thinks it's
Speaker 1: a pretty rotten situation. The idea that Harry's now cashing
Speaker 1: in on his great granny's inheritance leaves a very bitter
Speaker 1: taste in William and Kate's mouths. According to Closer, William
Speaker 1: believes that the inheritance essentially rewards Harry despite the terrible
Speaker 1: treatment he's shown them all, and that it is just
Speaker 1: wrong on so many levels. Some speculate the Queen Mother
Speaker 1: might have excluded Harry from the trust had she known
Speaker 1: the future discord he would cause within the family. Prince
Speaker 1: William's relationship with Queen Camilla has evolved significantly over the years.
Speaker 1: According to royal expert Hillary Fordwitch, Initially, William had a
Speaker 1: difficult time accepting Camilla, partly due to the painful and
Speaker 1: public breakdown of his parents marriage. Fordwich revealed to Fox
Speaker 1: News Digital that William couldn't stand Camilla at first, but
Speaker 1: has since come to appreciate her dedication to duty. Their
Speaker 1: bond has strengthened, particularly as they both supported their spouses
Speaker 1: through cancer treatments. Fordwich explained that Camilla has a calming
Speaker 1: influence on King Charles, a trait that William has come
Speaker 1: to value. However, according to Robert Jobson's book Catherine, Princess
Speaker 1: of Wales, Camilla has occasionally had to remind William of
Speaker 1: the royal hierarchy. For instance, there was an incident where
Speaker 1: William and Kate delayed Charles and Camilla, prompting Camilla to
Speaker 1: insist that they leave without them, subtly reinforcing the importance
Speaker 1: of punctuality. And respect within the royal family more in
Speaker 1: a moment. A woman who ordered copper wire from eBay
Speaker 1: was shocked to receive her parcel adorned with six collectible
Speaker 1: Princess Diana memorial stamps from nineteen ninety eight, each originally
Speaker 1: valued at twenty six p with the current cost of
Speaker 1: a first class stamp in the UK being one pound
Speaker 1: thirty five pence, the use of these older stamps was
Speaker 1: both unexpected and intriguing. The woman shared a photo of
Speaker 1: the parcel on Reddit, where others quickly chimed in with
Speaker 1: similar experiences from the same cellar. Another buyer reported receiving
Speaker 1: a package covered in historical train stamps from the seventies
Speaker 1: and eighties. The Express dusted off a traditional Kate's Wonderful
Speaker 1: article with the added common relatable spin. They write, Royals,
Speaker 1: They're just like us, Kate. The Princess of Wales particularly
Speaker 1: has shown she isn't afraid to travel like the rest
Speaker 1: of us. Last year, the Princess forty two was spotted
Speaker 1: taking an economy flight to Scotland with two of her children,
Speaker 1: while Prince William traveled with Prince George. A witness to
Speaker 1: such relatable behavior reported and yes, She was stunning, even
Speaker 1: gave me a smile while looking back at the row
Speaker 1: behind her to talk to her son. So, if you're
Speaker 1: ever sitting in thirty two F and you think you
Speaker 1: recognize the woman in the middle seat, it's probably Kate.
Speaker 1: And there you have it. Mark will be back tomorrow.
Speaker 1: Maybe I'm deep crown my thanks to John McDermott. This
Speaker 1: is pallace, intrigue and good times.
