I just saw this article and I laughed out loud. people.com/royals/prince-william-kate-middleton-have-broken-cycle-troubled-royal-marriages/Particularly these: “ Taking lessons from both their parents' marriages, Prince William and Kate Middleton are a united front, prioritizing steadiness and stability in their marriage and for their children.” “ According to royal historian Robert Lacey, William's steady, stable relationship with his beloved Catherine makes for a sharp contrast to the generations of strained royal marriage before theirs.” Eye fucking roll. What lessons did W take from his parents’ marriage?? Like - don’t be a dick? I don’t think he took that lesson! Right? He definitely could take lessons on what NOT to do, but it doesn’t look like it. Harry, on the other hand, seems to have gotten the memo.

There are articles of that a royal "source" leaked that William blocked Harry and Meghan's request to have Lili christened at Windsor Castle. I know there has been speculation and leaks that they wanted to do it in the same location as Archie's christening and make it possible for the Queen to attend.
If this is true, I think it looks really petty and small of William and makes the Queen look really weak. You won't let your grandson christen his daughter on your property because your other grandson is mad at him?

This phrase "William's steady, stable relationship with his beloved Catherine" is vomit-inducing.
And in what world does "steady, stable," mean "rife with cheating rumors?"

A coworker has told me that the Diana musical on Netflix is awful. I watched this clip and lord, awful is an understatement. It's not even "it's so bad, it's so good." Who thought this was a good idea? I'm sure it's all about cashing on the never-ending fascination with Diana and her 60th birthday, but this is terrible. I'm trying to decide it if's better or worse than the VERY SERIOUS Diana biopic with K-Stew now that we've gotten a longer trailer. It's even worse with K-Stew saying more lines with her perpetual clenched-jaw stank face, looking like she's a child playing in a grown-ups closet, the terrible wig, the over-exaggerated clipped accent that sounds nothing like Diana. But yet some are acting like she's the second coming of Meryl. Emma Corrin is a million times better than this could ever hope to be. And I have no doubt that Elizabeth Debicki will be amazing as well.

Wow, that Diana musical clip is something.
I saw this on twitter this morning and was fascinated by how they made this costume change work:

A coworker has told me that the Diana musical on Netflix is awful. Elizabeth Holmes discussed the musical awhile back from the standpoint of fashion and why The fashion isn’t “accurate” and “couldnt be” from a stage show standpoint. all I could think of was it sounds awful and there’s no accuracy (which duh musical we have to suspend some disbelief) but what’s the point then? Making money I guess?

Both the musical and the K-Stew movie look terrible. 100% DNW to watch either.

It’s extremely cringe in both concept and execution. The more that I think about, the more it's pissing me off. Making a joke out of a doomed-from-the-start marriage and playing up the pain that entailed for all parties for laughs is pretty damn disgusting. JFC, let the woman rest in peace.

Excited for this! She wrote The Diana Chronicles which was very juicy! I have a feeling this will be just as good.

I don’t like to read those kinds of things. I feel like anyone truly in the know isn’t gonna write about it.

Tina Brown was deeply sourced on Diana, since she covered her back in the day. She’s been editor of Vanity Fair and The New Yorker, so she’s also many steps up from tabloid on the scale of journalistic integrity. However, at one point post-New Yorker she was deep into business deals with the Weinstein brothers, so we can continue dragging her.
