I'm put in mind of that paparazzi photo of a pregnant Diana in a bikini. How times change.

I've never entirely bought into that explanation either. A person who's impaired, either from alcohol or drugs or both, is going to show some signs. And considering the high profile of the two persons he was driving for, surely someone would have noticed this, warned him off (or at the very...

Not to worry. I was curious is all.

I like Hello magazine for royal coverage and celeb news. It avoids the nastiness and speculation that the usual gossip rags (and far too many newspapers here in the UK) seem to favour.

The link to the ring photo isn't working. :sad:

"Snowdon: the biography" by Anne de Courcy The late Princess Margaret's ex-husband, Anthony Armstrong-Jones, Lord Snowden, has apparently given approval for a new bio on his marriage to Margaret. Anne de Courcy is writing the book and "reportedly had his full cooperation, was allowed access...

Hello magazine for January 22nd has a very interesting article on the man who know one has heard from. Hasnat Khan. His testimony at the inquest is the first time he's spoken publicly about his relationship with the late Princess.

Many congratulations to the Earl and Countess!

Now he is just creepy. His obsession with the whole business isn't normal.

Let's face it, as long as it shifts papers and boosts viewing ratings, the media will never let it drop. I was pleased however to hear it confirmed that the late Princess was NOT pregnant at the time of her death. Surely that was a no-brainer and it was one of the more ridiculous rumours that...

I appreciate the input ladies. Many thanks! I'll be looking for both the Gyles Brandrth and Caroline Graham books. That should hold me for a while. :flowers:

the Duchess of Cornwall - books? Is anyone aware of a good book or two on the Duchess of Cornwall? I'm interested in factual rather than speculative. :smile:

I read the two Andrew Morton books, some time back. I've no interest in the dirt put out by her ex butler, Paul Burrell or James Hewitt.

I think the Queen and Prince Philip's 60th wedding anniversary.

I like the photo. Made me smile to note the Queen and Princess Royal are ageing much more gracefully than the men. :innocent: Best wishes to Her Majesty, the Queen and the Duke of Edinburgh! :wine:

Your overlooking the fact that anyone being pursued by the press, generally have certain rules and boundaries that they have to work within in order to deal with the situation. Even Royals. Especially Royals. The media, on the other hand, can do as they please. You have to get a lawyer and a...

Hang on while I mail them a sympathy card. ;)

If anyone is shrewd with regard to the media, its the Royals. They've had to be for some time now. The public does NOT have the right to know everything. Whats more, we don't want to. The ordinary citizen would never tolerate, nor be expected, to tolerate the kind of intrusion into their lives...

I did! I did! I'd curtsey, but I don't know how. ;)

I see. Interesting. Thanks for the info. :smile:

Hi Ghazi. So, what exactly is a Sharif? Is it like a Duke or an Earl?

Something you need to keep in mind with regard to the British press; they love to denigrate. That applies to Royals as much as Joe Nobody. They display the worst sort of hypocrisy and cynicism and don't give a damn so long as it shifts print. I agree with the comments that Harry would appear to...

I often wonder how different the Throne of England would look today if Harry had known about chromosomes. ;)

Henry FitzRoy, by Henry's then mistress, Elizabeth Blount. He was styled the Duke of Richmond. Unfortunately he died in his teens of what we now call TB. At one point, there were rumours that Henry's second wife, Anne Boleyn, was responsible for his death. Something absurd about witchcraft...

Actually, no. I've not seen it yet. I'll be sure to read it though! Many thanks for that Elspeth! :smile:
