Perhaps KC3 is funding the grandhamlets education.

Even so with one in reception or pre-prep and one in ks1 it should "only" come to around £20k depending on the school

I think annual fees are nearer £40,000 for both children, especially if A is doing fuller days. I know this shows my mean streak but I sincerely hope that the school they were at for five minutes charges them for the full term or at least the agreed notice period as they would be expected to give notice like any other set of parents.

I'd imagine fees are paid in advance & no refunds would be in the t&cs...
Harry & Meghan are so chaotic, erratic & disorganised... so unsettling for the children to pull them out like that.

Perhaps they had paid for terms in a few schools before they made their final choice it would explain how the two children got places in the new school so easily

This is chump change for a couple allegedly spending £5m annually for security (that they don’t even need)?
Literally down the back of the sofa money.

Harry’s probably made that easier for some of them by his flounce off and not keeping in touch. It's been said before that William and Charles are likely to be hurt by Harry's tales of 'no one helped me with my grief', but there may be friends in that position too, who have read these stories and thought 'right, so you've forgotten all about the long phone calls, visits to my house, weekends out to take your mind off things...might as well not have bothered...'

I believe the mother of one of those friends tore a strip off Harry after the OW interview. They certainly did have a proper support network of friends and family.

Did anyone see the recent clip of Ari (on Megan Kelly) discussing M and why she was dropped by him?

She must have a very special talent -:at falling out with everyone!

No, what did he say, @Karma2023?

I am very curious about this after his last comment.

TheOvertGardener · 10/10/2026 11:24

When asked where he thought Meghan Markle's career was heading during an interview with The Sunday Times, WME executive chairman Ari Emanuel replied: “Here's the great thing: I don't have to think about that anymore.”

Was that the one where he pretty much said she was a diva and he got other people to deal with her?

I do hope so but I'm sure I read that they were unmarked police cars and had blue flashing lights on their number plates.

I've not seen any footage showing blue lights and TBH those vehicles/that combination/that number of vehicles doesn't really fit with how at least some IPPs/VIPs travel.

TBH I'm inclined to agree that it does look awfully like someone took a run at a high end car rental outfit or decided to go out and buy the Action Man mini- presidential convoy kit.

I'll no doubt be proved wrong but to my amateur eye it doesn't look like any HMG would have provided.
