The Montecito diaries continue……..will it be Balmoral or bust?

No wonder poor Archie has flat feet if they never put shoes on him.
The cellophane wrapped flowers are naff too. If you were going to properly stage the photo the wrappers would be off. No attention to detail as ever.

Here we go.
Prince Harry’s security review delayed as nine former PMs need protection

Tje fact that Harold and his family were able to come and go from
the UK without anyone really knowing ( or caring) and without incident, really proves that he does not need 24hr police protection. He’s such a div.

I have seen her do this pose before . Is she finding something so hysterical that she can’t even look up ? Or is to show off rings ?

Meghan loves to troll, I always imagine her and Marcus going through the photos and deciding which ones to post that will generate the most discussion and controversy, (was Misan with them? He likes a b&W photo, hides a multitude)

I was reading comments by the squad saying that W and C’s video of George and Louis running barefoot on a beach was them trying to copy the free and easy lifestyle of the Sussex kids .

Yeah but what do they get out of it? Financially I mean? All it gives is more worldwide ridicule!

I really can’t imagine PW being happy with the flower pics. So crass!

And timed to coincide with the King opening the commonwealth games, a FU to everyone. So predictable.

I find this very funny. I can picture Meghan standing there, fists clenching and unclenching, eye twitching, screeching, ‘Look free and easy. That’s OUR schtick. Fucking hell…LOOK FREE AND EASY, ALL OF YOU. Dammit! NO!!!!! Do it again and GET IT RIGHT THIS TIME.Free and easy…GO!’

In other words RAVEC are focused on providing security for those currently under threat rather than people who are paranoid and have proven they are perfectly able to function without armed officers.

Incidentally that photo of the low key two Met officers next to Harry's dramatically posing private security officers is hilarious.

I rarely wore shoes as a child, they are all copying me.

The Met officers look thoroughly fed up 😂

I agree, I really don’t think they get anything financial out of it, but I do think a lot of it is to keep the spotlight on them, try to manage the negative image they have and along the way to throw in a few clapbacks at their critics. I also wouldn’t be surprised if there is a machiavellian twist to it, ‘oh look we just posted some family holiday photos and look at the ridicule it generates’, manipulating and calculating.

I think the Daily Mail may be having a laugh- their lead story is the Beckhams on holiday on the super yacht that they own....

Why would they be a priority when they don’t even live in the country? That’s what I don’t understand.
Why does someone who doesn’t live here need a full review? Or a rolling review?
The priority for ravec surely is people who are actually in the country?

Meanwhile she is wearing trainers on the beach and looking out at them in the sea in quite a rigid anxious way. Again, who is filming them?

Again, who is filming them?

Quite. This is what I don’t think she understands about authenticity. Happy family holiday pics are great, but these aren’t just happy family holiday pics. Someone else is there and has been commissioned or told to take photos, presumably, with an eye to how they can be presented to the world. It’s all very calculated and stops the photos from just being nice family memories.

Edited to add - The Wales family have someone come and film/photograph the kids for one day, and those images are used throughout the year. This looks like they travel with Someone Else who is some sort of constant 5th presence. It’s weird.

🤣🤣🤣 that’s hilarious! Tbh I was a bit uncomfortable seeing G and L run around barefoot like that. Ds2 got five stitches on the sole of his foot after cutting it on a sharp rock on the beach.

The 2nd photo of M and L walking to the beach, L has her scruffy leggings on again.

I love that they always time their photo dumps to clash with the RF. I find it hilarious. They probably think it’s very clever and subtle of them. Whilst the RF probably think it’s another example of them not being team players. Both sides are just miles apart in terms of ethos and understanding.

There might be some advantages to having them back, but stuff like this just reminds everyone it wouldn’t be worth the hassle. You’ve got to be behind the team. Logo before Ego if you want a sports analogy. They’re not even playing for the same logo. I don’t think they want to come back, because they’re making it so obvious that they dgaf about the logo.

Thing is, their looky-likey audition for a holiday ad campaign can’t compare with the actual royal family. The crappy backs of heads beach photos are ten a penny. Here’s one from a minute ago on my phone.

Seeing Sussex PR is a bit like watching Jemini trying to sing in tune at Eurovision (iykyk).

Why surprised? This completely proves she doesn’t do it intentionally. Imagine the exhausting logistics of cross-checking schedules just to avoid specific dates!

Weird anyone actually thinks a person should do that lol

So true.

One instance of something doesn't prove anything...

She has previous as fine you know .
Hiking on Coronation Day ?

Diana’s mother bought the flat for Diana and then she sold it shortly after Diana married. It was funded by an inheritance bequest so the proceeds returned back to her family management.
