Many thanks, @jeffgoldblum

Marking my place to discover what shenanigans will trigger the appearance of your cheese board! I don't think I'll have long to wait . . . .

Thanks Jeff!

We are living in such interesting times.

My eyebrows were raised

SulkingInTheCatio · 07/09/2026 18:55

Did love the fact that Charles can basically claim he has issued the statement out of concern for their privacy 😁

Following on from the last thread, I find the accusations on X as scurrilous and unlikely as the ones about the children. If they were accurate by now some actual concrete evidence, as opposed to rumours, would be forthcoming.

A new thread . How lovely .

Yes …it’s important to specify that they are only rumours with no actual proof.

Evening all. I didn’t even get chance to catch up and post on the last thread 🤣 so thanks for the new one Jeff 🙏.

So KC3’s letter….another masterclass from BP. Not quite up there with Recollections, but not far off.

What it’s saying so elegantly is “they made their bed and we expect them to lie in it. However, we also anticipate them trying to lie their way out of it by making demands to pretend/confuse a status they themselves rescinded to pursue personal commercial gain by shitting on the family and the country. So if in doubt/you suspect they are taking the piss, give us a call. “

What I found quite interesting about that letter was there was no “they remain much loved members of the family” like the last statement, though to be fair who does actually love them? KC will of course love his son though I suspect he doesn’t like him much at the moment, I don’t imagine he cares much for Meghan at all so the love is probably very thin on the ground, still the HAMs always have the Yorks…….

I too found that a glaring omission.
I wonder if by accident or design

I think it was on purpose. This wasn't a statement from a Father, like the speech after he became King. This was the Monarch giving clarifying instructions to the instruments of government. Family sentiments would be misplaced.

I definitely got a whiff of a cold dish called “Revenge”!

But H needs to be told.

There was a rumour that, as H left the meeting with KC, Charles said to Camilla “Harry never listens!” This was clearly meant to drive the message home.

MrsLeonFarrell · 07/09/2026 19:28

I suspect this was also a subtle warning to the press that attempting to pretend there are rival courts and then fabricating a war between them isn't going to work. Charles has learnt from the so called War of the Wales that there are no winners only losers in press battles.

Yes I’m going hoping this will nip that nonsense in the bud, the press with this “rival court” line has been growing legs, the statement has made a lot of them look very foolish indeed.
