Will we see any royals out and about anytime soon?

I think the Hewitt theory is long since debunked!

His hair seems thicker and darker. I wonder if he has had a James Nesbitt operation.

paradyning · 10/05/2020 20:54

Yes yes it's long debunked on this thread. I've been hearing stuff though since the mid 1990s on that score so follow my own path.

Would love to see the full length version of what GD MT is wearing to see her new grandson here. Looks very glam indeed. She also looks very youthful!

GDMT loves the slicked back hair! But rumour has it she isn't the nicest of people.

Crikey, how many names does one baby need? I'm thinking they're thinking he might be an only one so they've just used all the boys names they liked in one go Grin lovely news though, I love newborn babies, they're just yummy. Well, mine were. Not quite as yummy now they're teenagers admittedly.

Re. brooches....after my Nan died my mum asked if there was anything I'd like and I chose her turquoise brooch, because it's really pretty. I thought I'd have a safety clasp fitted and the jeweller was really sniffy about why I was bothering, told me it was worthless because it's not set in a good metal and completely missed the point of sentimental value which rather spoiled it for me to be honest. I think the point about jewellery is the sentiment attached to it, not what it's worth and let's face it, if you don't like something or if your fingers get too fat for your rings after having three kids Blush you won't wear it so it just ends up sitting in a jewellery box not being worn.

That Lux baby was a long time coming. Lovely news.

Harry is the image of his grandfather Philip imo.

DigOutThoseLemonHandWipes · 12/05/2020 11:16

Diana didn't meet JH until after Harry was born. Harry could not look more like the DofE if he was a clone.

QueenOfTheAndals · 12/05/2020 11:24

This photo is my standard response to "Hewitt is Harry's dad"!

@queen - that is a brilliant one. In mini on my screen, thought it WAS Harry at first.

CanIHaveAPenguinPlease · 12/05/2020 12:21

Are you me Queen That’s the one I always use as well!

MotherofPearl · 12/05/2020 12:23

Me too! I find it so irritating when people make this claim when it's so obviously untrue. Plus it must be hurtful for Harry himself.

DigOutThoseLemonHandWipes · 12/05/2020 14:51

Hewitt could squash the rumour by pointing out that they didn't meet until after Harry was born but he obviously enjoys the attention and no doubt money making opportunities that it creates. Just another one on the list of people that exploit the memory of Diana for their own ends with no regard to the impact that it has on her children.

QueenOfTheAndals · 12/05/2020 15:07

I thought he'd fallen on hard times and had to move back in with his mum?

OP posts:
justasking111 · 12/05/2020 15:24

I think I recall reading Hewitt had been very ill a stroke or something.

AppleKatie · 12/05/2020 15:27

I can only assume it’s bullshit not only because he is the image of Charles and Phillip but mainly because I don’t believe the royal family wouldn’t have DNA tested him as a kid if there was even a tiny shadow of a doubt.

If he wasn’t family his whole introduction to adulthood and subsequent handling would of been different imo.

Rhubarbisevil · 12/05/2020 16:28

Anyway, back to the eyebrows. Do you think he’s been introduced to Anastasia of Beverley Hills?

He has said that interviews over the years.

paradyning · 12/05/2020 17:44

I'll just have to agree to disagree and keep to frocks in future.
There is a dearth of Good Frocks at present

Kate was in an Altuzarra (repeat) dress in her latest Zoom (only worn in 2016, I think).

I like it, but always thought it was a Boden dress - not over £1700. It's only viscose and nylon too... not silk, wool or similar.

£1700 for that??

DigOutThoseLemonHandWipes · 12/05/2020 19:04

@ajandjjmum fair enough - I've never seen him do anything to shut down the rumours but I don't tend to seek out his interviews etc as the few I did see didn't address the issue in anything that couldn't been seen as hugely ambiguous (think "a gentleman never tells" type answers) so I assumed he was interested in keeping the speculation going but I suppose that could be down to editing so the a fault there is mine.

CanIHaveAPenguinPlease · 12/05/2020 19:08

That dress has made my eyes go funny.
