Royal style & gossip: don't be fooled by the rocks that they've got, they're still Katie/Leti/Maxi from the block

What Kate Wore has a little piece on the interim stylist Kate is working with while her usual one is on mat leave:

whatkatewore.com/2019/04/05/all-about-kates-new-stylist/

Will be interesting to see if some of the new looks continue the usual lady's mat leave ends. I hope they do (still not sold on the Call the Midwife coat though)

Queen

Obviously not as many needing to be covered as the RF but a president and immediately family (spouse/children) would still need expensive security so it's not a cost that would entirely disappear if we became a republic.

Queen I don’t know WHAT you mean!

I like Ginnie's styling of Kate (so far) even more than Natasha's.
I wonder if Natasha will come back full or part time? If part time she could or would she job share the role with Ginnie?

It is so weird to read how much Camilla is admired. I remember when she was absolutely loathed. I hope time will make people forget their dislike of Meghan too.

I can't believe the previous King of Tonga's size (height and width)!! He is colossal

The fuschia outfit of Camilla's looks like my gran's lampshade...

I don't like Camilla and never will.
She was a selfish woman who didn't give a sh*t about being the OW despite there being children involved.
Not my kind of woman.

You can roll a turd in glitter but it's still a turd.

That’s beautiful bean

Sorry @FrugalKitty; I keep assigning Haakon to the wrong airing cupboard...!

They've done a very good PR job with Camilla. Surprising as people I know who've spent time with her say she's incredibly lazy and demanding.

Well good PR or not, I like Camilla. She looks genuine and fun.

Camilla demanding? I've heard she has the patience of a saint especially having to deal with all Charles' foibles.

I’ve read she mollycoddles Charlie all the time but also that she is good fun to be around.

I guess living separately helps a lot with the patience needed for Charles.

I'm afraid haven't managed to prise him off frugalkitty into my airing cupboard yet

The short clip from their wedding that accompanied that article was interesting. He looked over the moon but she looked quite wary and nervous. I guess she wasn't sure how she'd been received, given everything that had happened. His PR people certainly did a bang up job and I think by the time he ascends the throne there will be little doubt that she'll be made HM The Queen!

Well you've got till 11th April to get Haakon out your airing cupboards & back to Norway (oo er missus )

Prince William has been doing work experience with GCHQ etc

Hatchet job on PartyPices in the he DM. Someone has really got it in for them. I’m sure Richard Kay will be wheeled out in the next couple of days to write a flattering article.

Re: Ginnie Chadwyck-Healey, I really do hope she’s Kate’s temporary stylist and Natasha Archer is back after her maternity leave.
Kate has had a couple of hits, with the purple blouse and black pants. But there have been more misses. She’s put Kate in those horrible washed out colours ( the lurex mint dress with nude shoes in Dublin) and that hideous washed out Victorian nightie at the BP reception.

Also the customised bafta dress was worse than the Mcqueen original.
She must have picked the hideous gucci autopsy dress and put Kate in d&g. Kate really needs to sack the stylist and find someone she can trust.

I was in Selfridges again yesterday and they still have the two mint green Missoni dresses in stock, plus a lilac sleeveless version.

That was truly hideous

Rania in the most bizarre outfit. It looks like a raincoat mated with a prom dress
Then she has matching two tone shoes, and her handbag looks like she’s heading on an Easter egg hunt....

I actually feel sorry for her, she’s really lost her way fashion / looks wise in the last year.

Genuine question, if you have Botox/ fillers and then just stop, does your face eventually go back to how it should have been if you’d not messaged with it in the first place?

• messed not messaged

The Mail article is a real sour grapes piece. Sounds as if they have spent ages trying to find enough disgruntled employees to put it together.

I imagine the business has peaked though.
