Let me tell you what happened in Leicester Square tonight, because it was better than the film. The Princess of Wales has not walked a red carpet since May 2022. In between came the year the family does not discuss: the surgery, the diagnosis, the video from the garden bench, the chemotherapy, the months when the country quietly counted the days. Tonight she walked one again. She wore purple. Deep plum, Jenny Packham, cut lower than she has ever dared, the colour of queens. Her hair was half up, so that you could see the earrings, and the earrings were Diana's pearls. At her throat, on a rope of pearls to the waist, hung an amethyst heart the size of a walnut. Queen Alexandra gave it to the Queen Mother in 1923, the year she married into the family. It has been worn through a war, an abdication and a century of clever men underestimating the women who wore it. This morning a book went on sale calling that Queen petty and the King a lottery winner on the morning Diana died. The family's reply to a week of it has been one sentence. Tonight the future Queen answered without one: she wore the Queen Mother's heart and Diana's pearls at the same time, and let the flashbulbs do the talking. And William. Black tie, half a step behind her on the carpet, in her light rather than his own, with the look of a man who walked behind a coffin at fifteen and has spent every year since making sure she would never be alone on a carpet, or in a hospital, or anywhere. She looked magnificent. Not because of the dress, though it was perfect, and not because of the necklace, though it was a hundred years of the family on a single strand. She looked magnificent because she looked well, and happy, and unafraid. The book will be in the bargain bins by Christmas. The amethyst goes back to the vault, until another woman wears it on another night for reasons nobody will need to explain. That is the difference between a family and a grievance. One of them lasts.

This headline is going to break Meghan Markle and Prince Harry to pieces. Expect back to back sources.

We must now treat Meghan Markle EXACTLY as we treated Princesses Eugenie and Beatrice for the sins of their father, Andrew.

Meghan Markle is going to claim that her father sexually molested her!

A Prince of England has gone mad.

BREAKING.

SURPRISE!!!!

World’s most useless thing!

The Meghan Markle that talks a long game about women and their voices, including claiming her voice was stolen by the Royal family (with references to little mermaid) has barely said anything. She is leaning into the trad wife, homemaker narrative just to sell jam. What a cheap b***h!
