King Charles has already “read the riot” to his troublesome son Prince Harry, it has been claimed, making it clear in no uncertain terms that there will be “consequences” if his autobiography Spare or his and Meghan’s revealing Netflix documentary harms the royal family .
Royal biographer Tom Bower says his sources tell him Charles made various threats to Meghan and Harry and warned them if they go ahead [attacking the royals] they will find themselves ostracized in ways they cannot believe.
That could include the most dramatic rebuke of all – the removal of all royal titles from the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, as well as those of their children Archie and Lilibet. Yes, the very titles they rely on (especially in the US) to sell their grievances for millions.
If they cross the line, they should of course become royal exiles – a painful decision for King Charles but necessary to preserve the monarchy. Charles spent most of his adult life preparing for this role. Can you imagine how furious he would be if his plans for a modern, streamlined, hard-working monarchy were blown up by the Sussexes within months of his accession to the throne?
The king will be particularly concerned that the book might belittle Camilla. Harry believes that she broke his mother Diana’s heart and she may be struck by his sense of self-righteous retribution.

There are also rumors that both William and Kate have goals on their backs.
Also since the interview with Oprah Winfrey, Charles, Camilla, William and Kate have repeatedly stretched olive branches into the Sussexes, most notably during the Queen’s funeral. The couple were included in key royal ceremonies and Harry watched over the Queens’ coffin in full military uniform, which he is no longer allowed to wear as a non-working royal.
Both were embraced by the royal family for the whole world.
The Sussexes were safe as long as the Queen lived. She had a soft spot for Harry. It’s different with Charles on the throne, even though he loves his son. If Harry and Meghan go too far I believe he will strip them of their titles and throw them out.
And I suspect that people across the country, fed up with their testy, rampant, money-making antics, would rejoice and yell, “Three cheers for the king!”

I love the £1,200 earrings Kate Moss wore with a Saint Laurent dress in New York, as I own an almost identical pair. The only difference is that I bought mine at a flea market in Ibiza for £20. I wonder if Kate left them with green stains on their earlobes too?
Shame on the police
My friend Barry, who applied to be a police officer in the quest for thousands of new officers, now knows why he was not accepted despite passing the grueling physical, psychometric and written tests with flying colors.
A report shows that robbers, domestic abusers, flashers and even some with ties to serious organized crime – or with a history of predatory behavior – have been accepted.
Barry didn’t realize that being a criminal gave you a better chance of becoming a pc.
How awful that an effigy of Liz Truss is set to burn on Bonfire Night in Kent, complete with Larry, cat #10, snuggling up against her leg! Some respect please for the Moggy, now 15, who has endured Cameron, May, Johnson, Truss and now Sunak – and is more popular than all of them.

The Hunger Games star Jennifer Lawrence says she lost herself in the hit trilogy, adding, “I felt more like a celebrity than an actor.” Maybe she’s still struggling to come to terms with how her $160 million net worth is stifling her acting talent?
Amazon’s chief scientist Rohit Prasad envisions a world where Alexa anticipates what we should do, hear, or even which holiday to choose. When I asked Alexa for ‘Happy Party Music’, she was playing Bob Dylan’s Knockin’ On Heaven’s Door. Based on that, I imagine she would hand me a ticket to Kyiv – just one way!
Cha Cha does not cheat us
Strictly’s Fleur East downplays the controversy after she and dance partner Vito were given a second chance in the Dance Off after falling to the ground on their first attempt.
Second chance for failed dancers? A dance off that isn’t really live like viewers thought? The most woke Strictly of all time has lost more than a million viewers – the shine really comes off the ball in this latest fiasco.

Too bad it’s Hancock’s family
While Matt Hancock’s constituents feel let down as he joins I’m A Celebrity, my thoughts go out to his “very private” wife, Martha, who has been married for 15 years, and their three children, the youngest of whom is just eight years old when he was his mother for his married lover Gina Lollobrigida (or is that Colandangelo)? Weeks of reporting on social media becomes torture for them.
Emma Corrin, the star of Netflix’s Lady Chatterley’s Lover, insists the sex scenes aren’t in vain but are “entirely justified in their (the actor’s) experience,” whatever that means. Then how does Corrin justify the six nude sex scenes in the two-minute trailer?
Meghan’s toe is out of this world!
Finally something to love about Meghan. Like most women, she has misshapen feet after years of wearing stilettos. What’s even more adorable is that her second toe is extra long – a bit like ET’s second finger. ET, too, was cruelly dumped in a foreign country and cried out to “go home.”

James bites back critics
Jewish director James Gray dismisses criticism for casting Anthony Hopkins in his semi-autobiographical film Armageddon Time, rather than a Jewish actor. No one criticizes Nebraska’s Marlon Brando for playing an Italian New Yorker in The Godfather, he says. Also, no complaints about young dogs playing the girl in Lassie films.
Pictures of singer-songwriter Jennifer Lopez in full makeup wearing a black bra and lacy satin pajamas during a “writing session” shame me. Sitting here during my “writing session” in my lucky old leggings and faded M&S underwear, no makeup and my hair in a ponytail.
And I will not share the picture with my dear readers!
migration clock
- Home Secretary Suella Braverman was bold and right to call the arrival of tens of thousands of illegal immigrants an “invasion”. Imagine how Islington’s leftie-hug-a-migrant people would feel if that number hit their area?
- There is a possible solution to the overcrowding of migrant reception centers. We built seven Nightingale hospitals during Covid, why not use the same speed and expertise to build safe detention centers rather than farm people across the country?
- One reason the majority of people are outraged by the arrival of boat migrants is that they are being accommodated in three-star £6million-a-day hotels, while a million Britons who have paid their dues are still on waiting lists stand for accommodation.
- A sight for sore Suella to arrive in Manston in a Chinook helicopter so she could “see the coast”. Such grandiose stunts did not work with Liz Truss.
