This is what I get for trying to take a nap and not being on my phone.
I think she's still alive, but very obviously dying. May she pass in peace

Update: Harry is going, Meghan is not. Wow. I wonder if that's because Kate isn't going? |

I thought Kate was going now that she's picked up the kids from school?

I suspect that she had a medical event since meeting the new PM. Perhaps a stroke?

Nature really has a sense of poetry. I know it's pretty typical Scottish weather, but it's pouring rain there now. It certainly fits the general mood.

Okay, so a bit of feels as I've rewatched these The Crown scenes.
Clearly, I don't royal except for mostly commenting on fashion/tiaras et al, but it's going to be so weird to hear "God Save the King."

Are the kids in Europe with Harry and Meghan? Maybe Meghan is staying with the kids. They don't seem to want the kids around his family, but she may need to explain things to Archie.

Pretty wild to think of when it's framed that way.

Do we know that anything will be said at 6, or just assuming that might happen since BBC suspended regular broadcasting until 6?

I can’t stop thinking about King George (allegedly?) technically died of overdose of pain meds bc his doctors wanted to be sure they could announce it in morning vs the evening papers.

I thought I had read that the children stayed in the US but I’m not positive I believe this is the case so maybe she is staying behind to get them to London? I just can’t see her not going with him unless she is doing something important |

I am sure Meghan will be there for services et al. She doesn't really know the Queen, and perhaps they are respecting wishes we aren't aware of.

CNN just said Wills and Harry were at Balmoral when they found out their mother died, I forgot that

I'm a bit behind on the live feed but the BBC reporter speculating that Meghan wasn't traveling to Balmoral because she "wouldn't be welcome" is some bullshit.

Has it been confirmed by Harry and Meghan’s spokesperson that she isn’t coming? They have said to only take news if it is from them.

Glad I'm watching Sky News, then, despite their previous mistake on who was traveling when. They've made no speculation on her not going, only reporting the update that she is not. Come to think of it, they haven't really mentioned Kate either. I appreciate this rather restrained reporting. Eta- I take it back. But someone talking on it now is only speculating she is staying away because Kate is, leaving it to just the grandsons travelling (which makes sense). At least they're not being scandalous about it. |

Props to the BBC live feed for saying, “It’s just after 5:00.” I was sitting here thinking we’d have to wait six hours for news. LOL at myself for being an American and thinking everything is about me.
