That’s why Anne’s kids have always worked. And Edward and Sophie have said they are raising their children with the expectation that they will need to work. Or marry well. |
It goes to Charles only on a technicality, as succeeding monarch he does not have to pay any estate tax on it. I am sure there are private arrangements where Charles was asked to set up trust and provide generous disbursements to his siblings and nieces/nephews. |
Anne was intelligent enough to give her kids the freedom to do what they chose with their lives. Everyone has to work, 73 year old King Charles has been flying around the country and attending engagements non stop for the past 4 days with little time to mourn his parent. That’s brutal. |
That's not really working. And if you really think about it, the royals don't really work. And then there is wills and Kate who hardly do anything at all. Esp Kate. |
She was not attacked relentlessly for her race. She was attacked because she was perceived as someone who didn't care to learn about the rules and traditions of a very old, very conservative institution she entered voluntarily, and for whining when things didn't go her way. |
Correct. The Diana catastrophe was fully preventable. Diana was also far from an innocent victim of tabloids. She courted their attention when it suited her, and invited them to follow her. |
No. That really is work on behalf of the United Kingdom More than intelligence, Anne has the character, grace and work ethic of her mother. She is the one who will fill the Queen’s role as the heart of Britain as she quietly goes about her extensive duties with no complaint or fanfare. She was the first woman to stand at the Prince’s Vigil for her mother and accorded the Queen a deep curtsey as her body arrived in Edinburgh’s cathedral Look for Anne to take a larger tile in support if Charles with her legendary competence and humility. The Sussexes can return to their American celebrity while the true riyals soldier on. |
Oh, come on. People like to tout Anne as "the hardest-working royal," but she isn't really working. She's keeping busy. She may deserve the title of "busiest royal" (I don't follow the royals enough to know the schedules), but appearing at ribbon-cuttings isn't work in the sense that she produces anything of value. |
But that IS the job. And if her presence produces more interest or funding to charitable causes, then yes, it is work. I mean do you think appearing on discussion panel is work? What about giving interviews? Delivering keynote speeches? That's not really "work"? That's the entire job description. Although in the case of Anne, she may have to rethink her rule of not courting the media. |
Dig you head out of your own ass and read the multitude of articles saying negative comments about her race or referring to her race in a derogatory way. You just make yourself look really stupid. Bonus points though for calling the person with suicidal thoughts a liar. That's exactly what they tell you to say to them. |
Yep the queen went after her like she went after Diana but this was no 20 year child. |
People on panels don't get chosen to appear because they are professional panelists. They don't get interviewed because they're professional interviewees. They aren't giving speeches because they're someone good at giving speeches in a vacuum. They get those opportunities (some paid, some not) because of something else they do or have done. Does her presence bring more interest or funding to a cause? Meghan worked with some organization to produce a clothing line, and I get how that would produce money, but the vague sense that the vague magic of a royal hovering in the midst seems like a much harder thing to prove, and it would be even harder to prove that whatever those appearances produce offsets the expense of having a royal family |
How did the Queen go after her? |
That is their entire job. None of the royals are sitting on the bench curing cancer. They don’t care if it displease you. |
Sorry to disappoint you but no that’s not how it works in societies that observe primogeniture, like aristocratic UK. |
