The world has been subjected to a malevolently planned week of Sussex PR, with several promotional video clips released, more Archewell staff seemed to have disappeared, but at least the dreadful podcast has finished. All of this was timed to coincide with the Earthshot Prize event in Boston that William and Kate were attending. Add to the mix a Sussex cult fan claiming racial abuse at an event held by Camilla, where the accused was none other than the late Queen’s most trusted lady-in-waiting, Lady Susan Hussey who has 60 years of service to the Monarchy under her belt. Let’s say the Queen was still with us, would this have happened? Would the Sussex fan have accused Camilla of racism because she didn’t wish to answer her questions on her ethnicity? As she had already publicly accused Charles and Camilla of domestic violence against TW (without a shred of evidence), it is probably likely if Camilla was not the Queen Consort.
What we have left is a sport of sorts as Netflix released the teaser trailer on the Sussex reality documentary (that they denied was a project 2 years ago), and the comment section has not been muted. The comments are 92% negative, and the latest count after 3 days is 228k dislikes v 20k likes, where it struggles to hold on to one star.
The media have fallen into the trap of reporting on the duo, bar a couple of left-wing outlets who have been focusing on the actual news such as the war in Ukraine and the World Cup (England are 2-0 up as I write, and won 3-0!). However, perhaps Netflix left the comments open as a means to extricate themselves from the loss making deal at some point, or are they stupid enough to ignore the voices of the public whose subscriptions they depend on for their existence?

A snapshot of TW apparently helping out at a homeless shelter on Thanksgiving is ‘leaked’. No one really cares because they expected some kind of photo op and leakage, and the story was ignored.
A US handbag brand called Cuyana, issue a press release to state they are donating 500 handbags to the UK charity SmartWorks, and credit TW as a partner because she is the patron. The press release mentioned TW and her quotes, but not much about the charity itself which one would assume was the aim of donating to a charity. What use is the publicity when the brand is unknown in the UK, and is it purely a marketing write off?

TW attends the Women’s Fund gig in Indianapolis where TW speaks at the Downtown Marriott. Apparently, tables were donated, where we assume that they were given away because they were unsold. Guests were treated to framed photos of TW masquerading as ‘Pretty Woman’ at a polo game, and a photo of TW and TOS. Photos of TW at the event are released where she sports a self-tanned face, but a pale neck and pasty legs. Apparently she arrived by private jet around 5pm, and left by 8:30pm, before the event finished and flew back to California. Images show her leaving Indiana and gesturing at staff at the hotel.
The final podcast from Spotify is aired, and Hilary Rose and other poor journalists who were tasked with listening and reporting on the whinge fest can finally have a rest. What was it about? Who cares, there were men in it and none that many outside of the US will have heard of.

For some reason the Invictus Games releases a promotional video 10 months before the games are due to start (September 2023), where the black and white video features TOS looking smarmy as ever. The question is why does TW appear when she is not the patron, is not a veteran, and has never been in the military? She might be the spouse of the patron, but the charity is supposed to be about veterans and is not a platform to promote TOS and his wife to enhance their PR for their business ventures. This is the day that William and Kate arrive in Boston for the Earthshot Prize, and even the sugar media could not pretend that the video was released to upstage them. TW has been doing this since she wedged her foot in the door of Kensington Palace, so what did the RF expect? If you don’t stop bad behaviour, then it continues!
On the same day, Ngozi Fulani (aka birth name Marlene P Headley, aka Ngozi Headley-Fulani, aka Ngozi M P Headley-Fulani) who runs a charity called Sistah Space, accused a royal aide of racist abuse for asking her about her ethnicity given that she had arrived in a national costume and had an unusual surname. Let’s call her Marlene as her parents had named her—Marlene then said that she would not identify the ‘racist’ but then proceeded to post an alleged interaction between them, identifying her as Lady SH. Methinks that is the exact opposite of not identifying who someone is by using their title and initials!
Lady Susan Hussey resigned, apologised and offered to meet with Marlene to offer a personal apology for any offence caused. Initially, BP and KP reacted in fear as Lady Hussey resigned as a Lady of the Household, but it soon became clear that Marlene was a race baiter, and had publicly accused the RF of being racist and abusive over the years (with no evidence), and that she was an activist for BLM. She had even singled Charles and Camilla out as abusers, claiming they had abused TW on a public platform. Even the masses paused, and black people have been calling Marlene a race baiter, and stating that if that interaction happened with them, that they would not be offended or consider it racist. The People are actually criticising BP for reacting and treating Lady Hussey with such disrespect after 60 years of service and wish for her name to be cleared and her position reinstated. A petition has been set up where people can express their views on the matter.
A woman called Professor Duchess Harris promoted her book ‘Racism and the British Monarchy: A Meghan Markle Reader’ with a screenshot of allegedly, the child known as Archie perched like a petrified prop on TW’s lap. The image was later deleted from her Instagram account, but had already been shared across social media platforms and also media platforms. The child depicted bore little resemblance to previous images that were published of the child known as Archie.

The Counsellors of State Bill is passed, with a vague reference claiming that the Royal Family will endeavour to only use CoS who are working members of the RF. Unless it is in black and white and enshrined in the law, it pretty much means diddly squat, as an assurance is not legally binding and can be altered at will.
Netflix release the teaser trailer of ‘Harry and Meghan’, with some staged poses of TW and TOS looking in love, TOS claiming he had to protect his family, and TW claiming when the stakes were so high, it makes sense to hear their exaggerated version of events. The stakes? I guess she means losing money, reputation, titles, and status? Images show TW crying and clutching a moon bump in the words of Sarah Vine.
Didn’t TW also state during the Oprah interview that this was their story and they would never speak about it again? No one believed the story that was really ‘Spot the truthful statement’, so do they think by repeating it with staged images that it will convince people of their sad tale of being forced to leave the UK which TW had planned before the wedding?
There is controversy over some of the stills used, one being a stock image of some paparazzi (misrepresentation), and an image of the duo leaving BP when permission for their private photographer had not been approved, thus breaching security protocols. Could BP have a legitimate claim in legally halting the documentary with unauthorised images of BP being used based on security issues? This is a private entrance that was used by the Queen and members of her family, and violates her privacy and the security of Buckingham Palace.
The best part of the Netflix trailer is the 30k + sarcastic and honest comments on the sad plight of TW and her prince, and watching the 228k dislikes increase daily versus the 20k likes. Can Netflix honestly claim that they backed a winner? Do they really think people would subscribe to watch something when they bother to dislike a trailer?
2 December
A Christmas video message to Scotty’s Little Soldiers with TOS as Spiderman is released. These charities will keep enabling TOS while C3 allows him to retain his titles and by failing to extricate himself from the Sussex toxicity.
3 December
Mandana Dayani the president of Archewell leaves her role, and a Sussex statement claims that she was only given the role to cover parental leave (of 19 months). Her PA Sarah Reich also left, and other members if staff are rumoured to have jumped ship as well.
