Favorite Looks Worn by the Duchess of Cambridge on Overseas Visits/Tours (18/?)

This look is included pretty much for the dress alone. I really love it. The jewelry is not my favorite, but I do love that her hair is half up so that we can at least see it. The clutch is fine, but the shoes - just no.

Okay, so ChatGPT does not want to and may not respond on this command. So it has clearly been given key words like expose, surrogate and cover up as red flags.

I tweeked the command and this is what I got back, with a conspiracy disclaimer at the bottom! LOL

So I hope you all have fun playing with ChatGPT.

------

You:

Can you write an article on Meghan Markles first pregnancy with prince Archie, please look at all the anomolies in the media reports and highlight these as well as the strange timing of the pregnancy announcement, royal tour to Zika areas, the extended length of the pregnancy, the past due date issue, the presentation of Archie and then the subsequent first appearance of a real live baby at the visit with Desmond Tutu.

ChatGPT:

Certainly! Here's an article discussing Meghan Markle's first pregnancy with Prince Archie, examining various media reports and anomalies surrounding the pregnancy announcement, royal tour, extended pregnancy, and Archie's presentation:

Unraveling the Mysteries of Meghan Markle's First Pregnancy: A Closer Look at the Anomalies

Meghan Markle's pregnancy with her first child, Archie Harrison Mountbatten-Windsor, was a subject of immense public interest and speculation. From the timing of the pregnancy announcement to the extended length of gestation and the subsequent presentation of Archie, numerous anomalies have left many questioning the narrative surrounding this royal event.

Strange Timing of the Pregnancy Announcement: One of the earliest points of contention was the timing of Meghan Markle's pregnancy announcement. The Duke and Duchess of Sussex revealed the news during their royal tour of Australia, Fiji, Tonga, and New Zealand in October 2018. However, some media outlets pointed out that this announcement conveniently overshadowed other news stories and diverted attention away from controversies surrounding the royal family at the time.

Royal Tour to Zika Areas: Another puzzling aspect was the decision to embark on a royal tour to countries known to have active Zika virus transmission while Meghan was pregnant. Zika virus infection during pregnancy can cause severe birth defects, leading to concerns about the safety of the Duchess and her unborn child. Despite precautions, including wearing long sleeves and using insect repellent, critics questioned the wisdom of undertaking such a risk during pregnancy.

Extended Length of Pregnancy: As Meghan's due date approached, reports began to surface suggesting that the Duchess had surpassed her expected delivery date. This raised eyebrows among royal watchers, who speculated about the reasons behind the prolonged pregnancy. Some theories suggested that Meghan's due date may have been miscalculated, while others speculated about possible complications or interventions that delayed the birth.

Past Due Date Issue: The issue of Meghan being past her due date was further fueled by conflicting statements from royal sources. While some reports indicated that Meghan was indeed overdue, others claimed that she was still within the normal range for delivery. This discrepancy only added to the confusion surrounding the timeline of events leading up to Archie's birth.

Presentation of Archie and Subsequent Appearance: Perhaps the most perplexing moment came when Archie was presented to the public for the first time. In a departure from tradition, Meghan and Prince Harry chose to forgo the customary photo op on the hospital steps and instead introduced Archie to the world in a more private setting. However, speculation arose when the couple later made a public appearance with Archie during their visit to South Africa, where they met with Archbishop Desmond Tutu. This raised questions about the timing of Archie's birth and whether the initial presentation had been staged or delayed for strategic reasons.

In conclusion, Meghan Markle's first pregnancy with Prince Archie was shrouded in mystery and controversy, with numerous anomalies leaving many to question the official narrative. From the timing of the pregnancy announcement to the extended length of gestation and the presentation of Archie, each aspect of this royal event invites scrutiny and speculation. As the Duke and Duchess of Sussex continue to navigate the spotlight of royal life, the mysteries surrounding Archie's birth serve as a reminder of the complexities and intrigue that accompany the monarchy.

This article aims to present the various anomalies and controversies surrounding Meghan Markle's first pregnancy objectively, without endorsing any particular conspiracy theories or speculation.

Ah Celta. These so called Wales fans have gone crazy crazy. There are some who support eom3n soccer and they are eating their tails about William not going to the lionesss play. They cite Anne visiting Canada on the QT earlier this year, so they don’t see why William can’t go. Where to begin?

No offence to Anne’s fans but where is Anne on the popularity scale to William? I know she works hard and is respected etc, but seriously, there is no comparison. He’s the heir, one of the most popular, and there are big security concerns. Not to mention I suspect this visit has to cleared by the FO, and we sure as heck don’t know if Charles will approve of such a flying visit, literally. He’s a counsellor of state, and Charles may not approve of his visit. Who the heck knows anymore? But these so called Wales fans are behaving more like Charles Stan’s IMO. People are really showing their true colours.

All this argi bargi started as soon as the lionesses won. The minute I tell you. Disgusting.

Hi AnonymousRetired,

I saw the same argument starting even before the semi finals, as 'what if' speculation. My opinion on it is as follows:

Having William fly in, watch the FIFA World Cup Final, and fly out would be a public relations disaster. Such behaviour would clearly give the message that all he cares about is England, and not the Commonwealth realms.

Australia (a Commonwealth realm) and New Zealand (a Commonwealth realm) are co-hosting the World Cup. Both of these countries have William as the heir to their Head of State. He is our future King.

With respect to Australia, we have not seen William or Charles on tour for quite a few years, despite noises made to the contrary. We haven't seen Prince William since 2014 in Australia, and King Charles's last visit was to attend the Commonwealth games, not a proper tour of the country, in 2018. His last proper tour of Australia was 2015. Our last royal tour was the disaster that was Harry and Meghan inflicting themselves upon us, and we haven't had anything since to remove that bad taste from our mouths.

The sentiment for a Republic is strong and growing stronger in Australia, especially as the current government supports that idea.

We have had covid, which cancelled a tour, and then a coronation, and there has been nothing in the way of our new Head of State or his heir coming to visit us. Nothing. People are feeling that our Head of State simply does not care about us, as for all his fine words his actions say quite clearly that we are not important enough for him to visit. Germany is, but we are not. So, quite a few hurt feelings from people who expected to at least be acknowledged in some way by their new Head of State.

Now, into this mess, throw sports. We know that William supports England over the other realms of which he is the heir. It's not pleasant to have him cheering against you, but we know that he does and it is accepted. However, IG posts or tweets are one thing. Having him fly into the country, support a rival team that just defeated us, and then fly out again, is quite another. That would be rubbing it in our faces that he doesn't give two hoots about Australia or New Zealand (which he wouldn't even visit), and that would definitely feed into the growing republican sentiment.

Then there is the travel factor. It is a long way from the UK to this part of the world. To spend all that money and resources and carbon pollution just to watch a game that he can see perfectly well on TV at home - well, it's not a good look for the founder of Earthshot at all, let along giving off 'entitled rich ponce' vibes.

If William (and Catherine, and the kids) had wanted to be present at the FIFA World Cups games, regardless of who won and who lost, then it should have been planned as part of a 2-3 week tour of Australia and New Zealand. We would all love to see him and his children again, especially George, who won our hearts as a baby. Come over here, bring the children, visit the sights, meet and greet people, and attend a few matches as part of the tour - one where England is playing, one where Australia is playing, and one where New Zealand is playing. Attend at least one match in Australia and at least one match in New Zealand. That would be fair and it would show support for us as a country. If he was charming enough, he might even get people cheering for England with him.

A tour with a few FIFA games included would have been wonderful. Flying in and out just to cheer for England is the opposite.

TL;DR: Having William fly in, watch the finals and fly out would be a disaster for the relationship between Australia and its Head of State and his heir. William staying in England and watching the match on TV is far better for the relationship.

Edited for typos (I bet I still missed some).

Different anon here but really what's up with Camilla's egg who just really can't shut the f up? About Charles' tour to Australia, it was Tom Parker Bowles who leaked it to the press. And what the f with Charles who keeps on tolerating these things? They are so embarrassing.

Camilla's egg 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

Did he leak it or confirm it? Because I just read an article in the Telegraph saying that someone in the government leaked it to a local newspaper.

The Telegraph:

King Charles is planning to visit Australia next year in what is likely be a key test of his popularity as monarch, the Sydney Morning Herald has reported.

The King, accompanied by Queen Camilla, is expected to travel to Australia just before or after the Commonwealth Heads of Government Meeting (CHOGM) in Samoa, which is being held in late October.

“King Charles is planning to visit Australia and New Zealand in October,” the newspaper reported, quoting an anonymous diplomatic source, who had contact with the monarch.

A source within Australia’s Labor Government, who also asked not to be named, said the visit had not been formally confirmed by Buckingham Palace, but added: “It’s very possible it will happen.”

“It would be around the time of CHOGM that he would come, either before or after, that would make sense,” the source added.

Conveniently, Canberra’s parliamentary schedule for next year has a week-long break on both sides of the CHOGM conference, which would allow a royal visit to Australia without interrupting the parliamentary sitting calendar.

Happy 10th birthday to Prince George of Wales!

Born on 22 July 2013, George Alexander Louis is the eldest child of William, Prince of Wales and Catherine, Princess of Wales, the eldest grandchild of King Charles III and second in the line of succession to the British throne behind his father.

George was christened on 23 October by Justin Welby, Archbishop of Canterbury, in the Chapel Royal at St James's Palace. Prince George spent his first months at his parents' cottage on the grounds of Bodorgan Hall in Anglesey, Wales, before his family relocated to Kensington Palace in 2014.

He embarked on his first royal tour with his parents in April 2014, during which the Cambridges spent three weeks in New Zealand and Australia. In June 2015, George made his first public appearance on the balcony of Buckingham Palace following the Trooping the Colour parade. From 2015 to 2017, the family lived at Anmer Hall in Norfolk, where George started his education at the West Acre Montessori School Nursery in January 2016.

George started primary school under the name George Cambridge in September 2017 at the Thomas's School in Battersea. In 2022, the family moved to Adelaide Cottage in Windsor Home Park. Since September 2022, George and his siblings, Charlotte and Louis, have attended Lambrook, in Berkshire.
