Imagine what Queen Elizabeth thought about the shenanigans from Sarah and Diana at age 30 and 32 when the Queen herself was a world leader at age 26. There is a real difference in maturity and responsibility.
IMO Sarah has always been a loose cannon. She gets herself into trouble. She married Andrew, but she couldn’t handle his unique personality. The half in and half out has never worked. It certainly would not have worked for the Harkles as they wanted to be king and queen along with William and Catherine if they couldn’t have it all alone. They are not team players. They would have sabotaged the Wales as they are very selfish deranged evil creatures IMO. The Harkles are not nice people.
Andrew's unique personality 😂😂😂😂😂😂that made me laugh! Oh dear, Andrew certainly is unique. Like Harry they are "simple and unique". Made my Monday with a laugh 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
She seems like the kind of person to me, who believes she is a target anyway, so she might as well behave like (she thinks) everyone believed she would ... , and that everyone is against her no matter what she does.
@@alma-wiyes there may a sort of self sabotage... but not completely unconscious. I think she is very hungry for attention, and manages to get her feed
Gosh. This means that in fact, Andrew and Sarah only divorced technically, as a cynical money making enterprise, but in reality have never actually been separated, as we have seen in the fact that she lives with him at Royal Lodge even now. They really are the forerunners of H&M, in short, and that is evidently where M got her idea for half in half out from, but turbocharged it. Clearly M studied, and learned a lot from, the York family, during the years she 'knew' the various members of it whilst she was stalking H. The more I hear about the Yorks, the less I like them.
I heard her daughters paid for the Mayfair townhouse and that she is not allowed to sell it. Her daughters know her bad trackrecord with money @louise7552
Sorry Shauna I've stuck with you on this Sarah book but it still hasn't changed my mind of her .with her antics no wonder that in the end Philip banned her from attending any of the get togethers ,.
@@swissuz thank you for your comment, I don't think Sarah has really learnt anything from her past behaviour, but we still giving her the benefit of the doubt, I'll just draw a line under it. But I'll stay for the last couple of chapters cos I always need to see it through. 😂
@barbara,... yes she was banned from being anywhere near RF or their residences.Only mooched back in when he was ailing and he didn't care. Bit of a mean girl too,like Eugenie I feel.
Let's face it, they had good qualities, no doubt, but were both immature. Sarah was selfish impulsive and greedy and Diana was temperamental, manipulative, vengeful and not particularly bright. Acting like 15 year old's when you're twice that age? Yikes. Just makes you feel even more sorry for the late Queen.
Poor Queen Elizabeth, dealing with Diana, Sarah, and then Meghan. It is exhausting to listen to all the madness. Imagine having this day in and day out
I had the impression that the Windsor wives were victims of the “Firm” and despite their efforts were never given a fair chance. But listening to Fergie’s story and some of Lady C’s commentary about Diana changed my opinion. For all their qualities, Fergie and Diana lacked depth, sophistication and intellectual maturity to adapt. Wallis was rejected because of her unsuitable social status at the time but she was a sophisticated social climber while Meghan is an obvious narcissistic grifter. Catherine is such a good example of how a Windsor wife can be successful with her emotional maturity, strong sense of self and a quiet confidence. Catherine also married William for the right reasons and this shows in how much William flourished as a husband and father. Sadly, very much unlike his younger brother.
There are some similarities between Megain and Wallis Simpson, but Wallis Simpson did not behave badly in public and she never dressed inappropriately.
Wallis wasn't Online !!! She was scathing about people ("Cookie") but more or less discreetly; if she'd had a laptop and made friends with the Press........😒
@@gwae48 Wallis did make fun of the Royals to many people. But it rarely got into the papers as the Royals had more control of the press in those days.
It sounds like the two women could get up to a lot of trouble and it apparently didn't bother them in the least. The poor Queen and Phillip must have been very concerned about their behaviour.
It reminds me of when I was a parent of teens and really had to watch their friends and even spouses before they settled down. The Queen and Prince Phillip suddenly had four adult children along with their spouses, girlfriends, extended friends, and cousins! Their family was out of control and it was about to take a really devastating implosion in 92~ This is so interesting to see what built up to that point.
While I greatly admire QEII, and I'm not saying she was negligent, I would assume her parenting style and her meddling into their relationships is largely to blame for all of this.
Sometimes I feel a little guilty about this, but I find it amusing how crazy some of the behaviors are among some of the less mature members of the Royal family. I'm always a little surprised, though, when they actually write books about their behavior. Apparently, it takes a lot to embarrass them.
Having read this book before, I find my opinion of self-centered Sarah has not softened. She truly takes no responsibility. The staff story does not surprise me.
No, it's well known that she didn't get along with them. Diana even advice sophie against joining royal family and warn her about royal courtiers treatment of women who joins royal family.
@@swissuz I think it was Sophie’s choice of clothing and hair styles. They were close to Diana’s and she was accused of trying to get to be another Diana.
I have always thought that Sarah is the ultimate grifter and survivor. She trampled over Alan Starkey (read his very interesting version of Sarah) and still, apparently, remains high handed with the staff. Would love to know truth regarding Sarah and JE.
In the U.S. Fergie was celebrated for her candor, and free-spirit. In reality, she’s a self-indulgent whiner. I used to like her but find her behavior ridiculous. I would expect more from a royal. I am loving the book and your comments, Shauna.
JMO, I think Sarah literally threw away a wonderful advantaged life/opportunity. She was no child bride and I'm certain any assistance, protocol etc., would have been readily available for her. She's always come off as immature and entitled. Even on Eugenie's wedding day she just had to act common,( galloping over to the crowds, post wedding television) instead of waving ,smiling and letting her own daughter shine. She's learned nothing from her past mistakes, just regrets getting caught out.
I think Diana and Fergie were very immature ,Fergie is as daft as a brush and Diana made everybody's life hell . If Diana couldnt be happy then nobody could be. Sophie and Edward really have done the Queen proud. Harry truely is his mothers son . Jealous , immature and spoilt and Meghan just makes him worse
I do agree that the plan was agreed upon with Sarah and Andrew. And it’s still in play. Sarah has continued to live under the same roof as Andrew, write books, do tv etc. all the while remaining in the enclave of the RF. If Meghan had followed Sarah’s playbook, the UK would have two vipers within the bosom of the RF. I am intrigued why KC3 has welcomed Sarah back into the fold.
@joricardochard2824 I think King Charles and Fergie have bonded over their mutual cancer battles and are now supporting each other through their recovery. I also think Charles understands the affection between Fergie and Andrew. Maybe he thinks if Fergie can keep Andrew happy, he will not be such a challenge to manage now that he has no formal role in royal duties supporting the monarchy. I've always believed that idle hands are the devil's workshop. I hope Charles can find something productive for Andrew to do with his time, i.e. serving as a park ranger for Windsor Great Park, so Andrew can have a sense of purpose to his life. It would also justify Andrew's continued dwelling in Royal Lodge and provide him with the financial means to continue the maintenance and upkeep of such a grand manor. I often hope that Charles will sort out the "Andrew dilemma" and not leave it to Prince William to have to deal with when he becomes King.
@@lisalivingston6473 the problem with Andrew continuing living in Royal lodge is that Charles had to pay 3 millions each year for Andrew's house protection if he move to frogmore cottage then his security will be covered by government because frogmore comes under Windsor crown estate therefore protected by government
@@krishnavyas313I wonder what would happen if Charles stopped paying for Andrew's security? He should be treated just like Harry and pay for his own security.
@@lisalivingston6473 the difference is Harry himself left royal duties and Andrew was forced to give up his royal duties. When Andrew left royal duties was told to keep his mouth shut, and he wasn't getting any money because he was no longer working royal then Queen Elizabeth agreed to pay for his security and up keep of royal lodge (childhood home of the Queen, George VI before he became king lived in royal lodge as his country home,the mum also used it after death of George VI and left it to Andrew on 99 years of lease). Many article that I have read says that charles promised late Queen that he will look after Andrew. Then sarah got breast cancer after she recover from that and now she has skin cancer. It will look cruel if charles stop supporting them financially. May be if charles don't support them, then Andrew also write tell all book or do more interview for money and embarrasse Royal family.
@@krishnavyas313Good point! Looks like Charles is stuck with this deal his mum made and Prince William will inherit his parasitic uncle. The threat of Andrew writing his own scathing memoir must be truly awful for the family.
Sarah seems to be telling on herself in this book and may actually be proud of it. You know, we all know that one friend who was always the instigator or the one to suggest those capers which didn't always end well. That outing on the quad bikes WITH the future queen of England was so completely risky. How easy it would have been to hit a tree stump or large rock and have one or both go flying? Fergie's role in the Monarchy was destined to be cut short. Apparently, there was about to be a huge sigh of relief@
It's so fascinating to put all the stories from the different books you have reviewed together. Neither Fergie or Diana come out of it that well in regard to their behaviour behind the scenes or their treatment of those whose job it was to advise and look after them. At least William and Edward struck gold in their choice of marriage partners, an achievement in a world where divorce is now common.
Diana and Fergie were immature for their age. Especially considering they both had two children which usually makes ppl mature sooner that they would otherwise have.
I'm old enough to remember the press always taking a go at Fergie. And now, knowing how Di used to play to the press, I actually would not be surprised if she didn't "help" matters along while being nice to Fergie's face. At the same time, it truly seems that Fergie was out of her league in being a member of the RF. One wonders, had Andrew actually spent more time with her during the first few years, how different their lives might have been? Wasn't it said that Di & Andrew would have been a better match - Di certainly wasn't a good match for Charles!
I don't think Diana and Andrew would have good match because Diana complained about how charles was workaholic and didn't gave her much time, she had same complained about Dr. Khan. And hear sarah and Andrew only met 42 days in a year for 1st 5 years of their marriage and then the saprated. From this book Andrew came across as unbothered by bad treatment of his wife by midea and palace, and he was more inattentive husband than charles. Andrew didn't support her and didn't even once he stood up for her. And like charles, Andrew was also more of country man then a city guy. Diana didn't enjoy country life.
The "real" Sarah was on full display several times after she separated from Andrew. Who could forget her attempting to sell access to Andrew to a (fake) Sheikh? OR if you wish to see her in full flight arrogantly dealing with those "lesser" than her, you have only to view the Australian 60 Minutes interview where she "tantrum-ed" before the cameras. Sorry Sarah, I'm not buying what you have to sell in this memoir. Thankyou Shauna for a great expose of this royal character.
Ive always thought that Fergie didnt really care how she was perceived, that she wanted to do what she wanted to do and that was that. So she might have said, sarcastically or not, that she let down the monarchy, but upholding the monarchy did not seem to be one of her priorities.
I am recognizing something here. I hope I’m not insulting people who are very well off here as I tell this story. But the well off part is important. When I was young I got to know several people with Sarah like behaviours. I was invited to take a ride in a very expensive car a young wealthy woman had been given by her father. It was the dead of winter in the Canadian prairies. Instead of the short around the block ride I expected I was treated to a terrifying ride through a snow and ice storm. We plowed our way through snow banks that had built up on the highway. There was no one around and if we had gotten stuck we would have frozen to death. We ended up in a different province at an expensive hotel for an expensive breakfast after hours of this dangerous drive. The ride home was just as perilous. When I expressed concern she just stated that daddy could buy a new car if she wrecked it. I had no way to get back home and I had to report for work. That’s the point. I had a boss to report to. If she tarnished her reputation she would still have an income. I wouldn’t. Over and over again i have seen this ‘Devil May Care” behaviour funded from Daddy’s bank account. I’ve seen the family buy the school grades and pay to get their children off the hook too many times. It doesn’t end well. Alcoholism, drug addiction, divorce, suicide, death by abortion, is in the cards for these people. In some level they know that those who have to pay their own way are actually more successful and happier. The moral is this: let your children learn the hard way. Let them experience reality. Let them grow up and not remain infantile. I’ve seen too much!
Told ya fergie's an asshole😊. Shes full of it. If her stories are true, driving a quad over a golf course would have done thousands of pounds in damage not to mention the work involved in fixing it, the day before a golf tournament! Thats nasty. & Knocking on that guys door when they have to be ready for anything the queen wants or anything that happens, equally nasty. I think she and andrew were forced by the queen (probably moreso Philip 😏) to seperate. Its as if both of them didnt want to. What people dont realise is that the aristocracy right up until Diana & Fergie's generation considered it very normal to have affairs. Its what they did for fun at their country houses, shooting weekends, parties etc. andrew doesnt seem too upset that she was cought, as we have seen they are still together. (Funny how as a 'single' prince he has never been linked to anyone else 🤔 apart from the guifre/epstein fiasco). No gold diggers after him? No one tempted him? It was a public seperation but not a private one. And as for Diana leaking the story, that shows just how devious and manipulative she was yet we are to believe Charles was always a cold hearted monster when we see the opposite from him? Queen of hearts? 💕 Charles is a saint for never publicly slating her.
There were stories out about 10-20 years ago that Andrew was seeing various ladies in his social set but all very discreet. So no one who wanted publicity or attention. While Sarah lived with Andrew, I think it became more friendship to raise the girls and afford Sarah protection.
Diana catfished Charles. In a interview, years before he took up with Diane, Charles said he felt the key to marital happiness was having common interests and hobbies. Diana pretended to love hunting, fishing, long walks in the country and Balmoral. Once the ring was on, the game was over. Charles was too much of a gentleman to break the engagement.
I think the senior courtier who gave telling off to sarah was her cousin and Diana's brother in law Robert Fellows. That's why he didn't hesitate from giving telling off to royal Duchess
I’m not sure these stories smack of entitlement Shauna. I think they smack more of embellishment, or even fabrication! 😂 Based on her recent behaviour, for instance at the Christmas service and more recently at Cannes, I’m not sure Sarah is capable of learning from her mistakes.
Sarah was embarrassing in the engagement interview i cringed. She was like a big red Labrador jumping all over the place i died inside from second hand embarrassment 😳.
I am growing to really dislike these privileged people, who are so wrapped up in themselves and don't appear to appreciate what they have or the role and responsibility of the royal family. Overindulged overgrown children. Not speaking of the wonderful Charles, William, Catherine, Anne, Edward and Sophie and their ilk,of course.
Unfortunately Sarah was her own worse enemy. She never took accountable for her actions or behaviour. It was always someone else. Very similar to the other seconds sons wife
We saw fergies behaviour last Christmas on the walk to church with the family .. running off to hug & talk to people in the crowd as they acknowledged her, one of her daughters had to go and physically pull her away & back to the pathway to church . Geez is she going to wreck her new opportunity at rejoining the family traditions or will she self sabotage again ? This is the first chapter I’ve joined in on in some time & the last until it finally ends. I’m looking forward to the next choice of book to review that doesn’t involve the Duchess of disaster .
@jeangodding6348 Your comment made me remember how Fergie broke away from Princess Beatrice at Princess Eugenie's wedding as she spotted a family friend in the crowd outside the church. She was excited to see her friend, and afterwards she sheepishly rejoined her daughter who was patiently waiting for her on the steps of the church so they could go in together to be seated. I think Fergie was a ball of nervous energy that day. Her youngest daughter was getting married, her oldest daughter was preparing to read an excerpt from The Great Gatsby (and did a fine job considering that she is dyslexic) and she was going to be in the presence of the Queen and Prince Philip for the first time in a long while.
@@lisalivingston6473 yes despite what she might say in her own book, we consistently see her inappropriate behaviour in royal circles as well as everyday people’s s spheres where only the slightest bit of common sense would suffice . Whatever it is that manifests this poor behaviour is still present , we continue to see her bizarre ( drunken ? ) antics on stage as recently as the Cannes film festival this year .. she hasn’t evolved much in these last few decades of opportune rehabilitation .
I remember a child at my children’s school dressing up as “Fergie off on holiday” at Halloween. She had long red hair and carried a little case with a doll handing out of it while carrying another doll. It was very amusing at the time
I agree Shauna Sarah the victim lol poor Sarah I think the tall tales she tells are exaggerated or made up the ones with no proof they happened and Harry did the same 😂😂😂😂
Hang on a minute! Why was she gripping a rosary? She was married in the church of England, and there's no use of a rosary in the church of England I grew up in. 🤔
There actually are "high church" Anglicans who do use rosaries privately. But my guess is that Fergie had one that perhaps had been given to her by a Catholic dignitary or she had picked up somewhere because it was pretty. Then she just used it as a sort of rabbit's foot. I certainly can't imagine her using it as a disciplined devotion, saying the rosary prayers, etc.
Diana and Fergie sound like spoilt brats messing around on the quad bike, etc. It makes me a bit mad that people still idolise Diana. She caused a lot of trouble. The royals must have breathed a sigh of relief when Edward chose Sophie, and William chose Catherine.
In a way, Diana couldn’t win in the situation with Sarah . I read that Charles once had said to Diana, “why can’t you be more like her?” I suppose he was comparing Sarah’s bubbly personality with Diana’s moodiness, but when Diana joined in Sarah’s shenanigans, Diana was criticized . I remember seeing a video of the two couples on a ski slope , Diana and Sarah giggling and elbowing each other so much so that Diana almost slipped. Charles grabbed her arm to right her, the irritation plainly showing on his face , and Diana obviously pulling her arm from his grasp .
Remember earlier Sarah wanted to impress everyone was getting along with everyone, was following every advice and was work horse that's why charles told Diana to be like sarah.
As I was listening to Dianna & Sarah's bratty, and childish behavior. It dawned on me how, truly respectful and mature, Catherine has always been. Poor Queen Elizabeth.
So glad I found you shauna! You're a tonic! I agree with everything you say. You're brilliant. Sarah & Andrew deserve each other - both awful & egotistical!
I'm having a pretty clear notion that the two "ladies" must have helped themselves to a few drinks from the housebar before going on these joyrides ...
Poor Sophie 😮..what a awful thing to do to Sophie and Edward 😢. I smell a Henry Wallis Sarah Rachel combo burger 😂😊. All cut from the same rags huh😂. I really was sitting on the fence about Fergie. But got on a bit of a lean after hearing the bits n juices😂from her book so far. So I made a point of watching how Fergie carries herself in recent times...obviously understanding shes just come through the hell of cancer .But her arrogant side really is quite obvious isn't it. I like Beatrice. I think shes adorable ❤ .
I believe it was Diana not Fergie who told where Sophie lived. Diana was Jealous of Sophie when she came onto the Scene. Sophie was. And still is a Beautiful Caring Women. But Diana's nose got put out of Joint. In my Honest Opinion. Diana did Alot of Sneaky things and Sarah got the Blame for everything. I'm not saying Fergie is Perfect far from it. But neither was Diana.
At the end, when you said you didnt believe her contrition any more, I had exactly the same thought as you just before you said it. I think she is still using the same tactics today and that , rather than being an overgrown puppy who didnt mean to make the puddle on the carpet, she knows exactly what she is doing and the outcome that will occur. It strikes me that both Fergi and Diana were entitled brats who never grew up. If we had a woman who married in to our family and behaved in the manner these two did they would be frowned upon too. In fact it makes me wonder if half of Dianas wonderful work was a calculated ploy by Diana to improve her image, purely to try and make Charles look bad. She was manipulative enough and from Fergis account doesnt seem to care much for others unless it suits her. Like meghan I find it difficult to believe that someone who would treat family like that and be so disrespectful could really truly care about those outside. I have often thought over the last years that perhaps harry has married his mother. I also am intrigued by the idea that the divorce was planned by both Andrew and Fergi so she could make them some money. That would explain why they are still living together wouldnt it! Another thought provoking read! Wonderful Shauna - thank you. I didnt get a notification of your live so sadly missed it and had to listen after it was over. My fault as I didnt go into the community bit.
Echoes of Scott Morrison’s trip to Hawaii in that insistence on going skiing. Just because you can, doesn’t mean you should, unfortunately when you’re a public figure you are in the crosshairs because you are privileged
What I find interesting about Sarah and Andrew, is that despite both of them having multiple relationships before they wed, after they divorced, neither has had a significant other.
Does the Church of England use the rosary? I’ve only heard of Catholics using it, though I’ve read that the rosary given to Diana by Mother Teresa was placed in her hands in the casket.
As usual you hit the nail on the head, so much going on behind the scenes and hardly any truthful admissions. RF making the same mistake with H&M as they did with Diana. Nobody calls them out or defends themselves from accusations so will take what 30 years for all the mud that is being slung by H&M to finally be cleared up? Fergie and Diana were a couple of entitled brats and everyone just covered up their antics. Fergie should be kept from the public eye, she is not very nice and I’m afraid she and Prince Andrew have been terrible examples for their daughters, so I don’t trust either one of them either. A family of deceitful hearts and envious souls. It shows on all their faces.
I don't hate Sarah - but neither do I like her. She has always seemed to me to be pretty self-centered. Willing to instigate trouble - but never willing to accept the consequences. It's always someone else's fault. I'm not a fan. Not to mention her willingness to cover-up for Andrew's repulsive behaviour; he really is a CREEP (IMO).
Maybe some exuberant youths will bang on Sarah's door at midnight for funsies. Some people only realise how scary and annoying it is when it happens to them, instead of by them. It's high ignorance. Besides, it's scary enough to get a phone call late at night, let alone a knock on the door.
I love your videos Shauna! This is rather off topic but, I have had many co-incidences in the recent past after listening to old records or songs and the very next time I tune into your current video there they have been on your bookshelf, from Sherbet to Wings now to David Essex. I don't know why I'm telling you this. But, its coincidence is weirdly wonderful.
Fergie and Diana had a falling out. Fergie likes to gloss over all that. The midnight Door knock etc shows how juvenile their behaviour truely was. Sarah never really acknowledges her poor choices as she’s always got an excuse. The more I listen to her narrative I agree that the Harkles and Sarah are on the same track.
IMO, there is actually nothing in life that you can be half in or half out and achieve any true measure of success🌻Something/someone always suffers or falls by the wayside when you don't give your best effort. The Queen was right you have to be all in. I think that Sarah et al forgot that the BRF is a business not just a family.
Since 2020, I have never known The Royal Family to be this exciting !!! Why bother with a soap opera on mainstream TV when you can just follow these characters and their shenanigans 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I find it hard to believe the story about Sarah and Diana going off for a spin on a quad bike and the Daimler. WHY WOULD THOSE BE LEFT WITH THE KEYS IN THEM TO BE STOLEN??
Look at the parents behaviours and values and there front and centre is one of the reasons that I can't bring myself to trust their offspring. I don't agree that they should be promoted to senior royal positions. Too much inherited baggage.
Imagine what Queen Elizabeth thought about the shenanigans from Sarah and Diana at age 30 and 32 when the Queen herself was a world leader at age 26. There is a real difference in maturity and responsibility.
IMO Sarah has always been a loose cannon. She gets herself into trouble. She married Andrew, but she couldn’t handle his unique personality. The half in and half out has never worked. It certainly would not have worked for the Harkles as they wanted to be king and queen along with William and Catherine if they couldn’t have it all alone. They are not team players. They would have sabotaged the Wales as they are very selfish deranged evil creatures IMO. The Harkles are not nice people.
Andrew's unique personality 😂😂😂😂😂😂that made me laugh! Oh dear, Andrew certainly is unique. Like Harry they are "simple and unique". Made my Monday with a laugh 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
But this is about Fergie, not the Hrkls ...
And she is still a loose cannon
Comparisons are always interesting. It’s sometimes history repeating itself. The word sabotage,is unique and frightening!
The trouble with Sarah is, she makes herself a target then moans when the shooting starts
Exactly like Meghan
She seems like the kind of person to me, who believes she is a target anyway, so she might as well behave like (she thinks) everyone believed she would ... , and that everyone is against her no matter what she does.

It's easy to not like them.Sarah fit right in, although she is more likable these days.
I've always thought that when Sarah was caught selling info on Andrew that Andrew was involved. They were doing these things together for money.
Actually, Fergie just bought her own place. Must have got wind of Andrew getting evicted. 😅
As bad as Sarah is, I can't stand Andrew. He's such a... well, I shouldn't type the word on YT.... lol

She does not strike me as a person of much substance.
Court jester is a great way to describe Sarah’s less than royal behavior .
Court jesters had to be very savvy and shrewd. One wrong move and there would be big consequences.
A court jester could never be a loose cannon - or else he wouldn't have survived long.

And Princess Catherine.
Prince philip : "I thought you have grown out of flirting with staff."
I had the impression that the Windsor wives were victims of the “Firm” and despite their efforts were never given a fair chance. But listening to Fergie’s story and some of Lady C’s commentary about Diana changed my opinion. For all their qualities, Fergie and Diana lacked depth, sophistication and intellectual maturity to adapt. Wallis was rejected because of her unsuitable social status at the time but she was a sophisticated social climber while Meghan is an obvious narcissistic grifter. Catherine is such a good example of how a Windsor wife can be successful with her emotional maturity, strong sense of self and a quiet confidence. Catherine also married William for the right reasons and this shows in how much William flourished as a husband and father. Sadly, very much unlike his younger brother.
Excellent comment.
So is Sophie.... That's why both The Late Queen and PP accepted Catherine for their grandson's future King 👑
I the firm was victim of these two vindictive, immature women.
Wallis was also a divorcé, a big no-no for a king, back in the day.
Do any of them ever think twice .
But of course not, they were Princess Superstars!!
No!
It appears they, as far as I can tell, rarely think once, never mind twice.
PS. Fergie’s story is like listening to a teenager misbehaving and not understanding why she’s always the one caught and punished. So juvenile.
There are some similarities between Megain and Wallis Simpson, but Wallis Simpson did not behave badly in public and she never dressed inappropriately.

Wallis did make fun of the Royals to many people. But it rarely got into the papers as the Royals had more control of the press in those days.
It sounds like the two women could get up to a lot of trouble and it apparently didn't bother them in the least. The poor Queen and Phillip must have been very concerned about their behaviour.
Concerned? I would have thought livid
It reminds me of when I was a parent of teens and really had to watch their friends and even spouses before they settled down. The Queen and Prince Phillip suddenly had four adult children along with their spouses, girlfriends, extended friends, and cousins! Their family was out of control and it was about to take a really devastating implosion in 92~ This is so interesting to see what built up to that point.
While I greatly admire QEII, and I'm not saying she was negligent, I would assume her parenting style and her meddling into their relationships is largely to blame for all of this.
Sometimes I feel a little guilty about this, but I find it amusing how crazy some of the behaviors are among some of the less mature members of the Royal family. I'm always a little surprised, though, when they actually write books about their behavior. Apparently, it takes a lot to embarrass them.
The lack of self awareness in the true sense is astonishing.
Having read this book before, I find my opinion of self-centered Sarah has not softened. She truly takes no responsibility. The staff story does not surprise me.
Come to think of it, did Fergie and Diana get along with Sophie? My guess is no because I think Sophie is way too decent for them.
No, it's well known that she didn't get along with them.
Diana even advice sophie against joining royal family and warn her about royal courtiers treatment of women who joins royal family.
Sophie has had her nightmare of being likened as a Diana 2.0 I can't remember the whole story.
@@swissuz
I think it was Sophie’s choice of clothing and hair styles. They were close to Diana’s and she was accused of trying to get to be another Diana.
Sarah is middl
Well, my opinion of Sarah was low when we started this book, and it goes down with each chapter. What an annoying person she is!
Same here, terrible woman
My opinion of her was always low. She’s brash
I have always thought that Sarah is the ultimate grifter and survivor. She trampled over Alan Starkey (read his very interesting version of Sarah) and still, apparently, remains high handed with the staff. Would love to know truth regarding Sarah and JE.
I’d say JE exploited her excessive spending and found an easy way to gain control over those two royal clowns
Andrew Lownie’s book should tell us a lot more!!
Yes im sure sarah was the one who involved Andrew, cos he's just her type and Andrew will do anything for Fergie
In the U.S. Fergie was celebrated for her candor, and free-spirit. In reality, she’s a self-indulgent whiner. I used to like her but find her behavior ridiculous. I would expect more from a royal. I am loving the book and your comments, Shauna.
JMO, I think Sarah literally threw away a wonderful advantaged life/opportunity. She was no child bride and I'm certain any assistance, protocol etc., would have been readily available for her. She's always come off as immature and entitled. Even on Eugenie's wedding day she just had to act common,( galloping over to the crowds, post wedding television) instead of waving ,smiling and letting her own daughter shine. She's learned nothing from her past mistakes, just regrets getting caught out.
I think Diana and Fergie were very immature ,Fergie is as daft as a brush and Diana made everybody's life hell . If Diana couldnt be happy then nobody could be. Sophie and Edward really have done the Queen proud. Harry truely is his mothers son . Jealous , immature and spoilt and Meghan just makes him worse
She seems a bit childish to me. Just like Harry and his wife.
I agree - very immature with no tjoughts to consequence. I believe her life goal is just to have fun and raise heck.
Good lord Sarah what a fool at that time and today still a fool
The biggest problem is that they don't ask what they can do for the country, they ask what the country can do for them!!
I do agree that the plan was agreed upon with Sarah and Andrew. And it’s still in play. Sarah has continued to live under the same roof as Andrew, write books, do tv etc. all the while remaining in the enclave of the RF. If Meghan had followed Sarah’s playbook, the UK would have two vipers within the bosom of the RF. I am intrigued why KC3 has welcomed Sarah back into the fold.
@joricardochard2824 I think King Charles and Fergie have bonded over their mutual cancer battles and are now supporting each other through their recovery. I also think Charles understands the affection between Fergie and Andrew. Maybe he thinks if Fergie can keep Andrew happy, he will not be such a challenge to manage now that he has no formal role in royal duties supporting the monarchy. I've always believed that idle hands are the devil's workshop. I hope Charles can find something productive for Andrew to do with his time, i.e. serving as a park ranger for Windsor Great Park, so Andrew can have a sense of purpose to his life. It would also justify Andrew's continued dwelling in Royal Lodge and provide him with the financial means to continue the maintenance and upkeep of such a grand manor. I often hope that Charles will sort out the "Andrew dilemma" and not leave it to Prince William to have to deal with when he becomes King.
@@lisalivingston6473 the problem with Andrew continuing living in Royal lodge is that Charles had to pay 3 millions each year for Andrew's house protection if he move to frogmore cottage then his security will be covered by government because frogmore comes under Windsor crown estate therefore protected by government
@@krishnavyas313I wonder what would happen if Charles stopped paying for Andrew's security? He should be treated just like Harry and pay for his own security.
@@lisalivingston6473 the difference is Harry himself left royal duties and Andrew was forced to give up his royal duties.
When Andrew left royal duties was told to keep his mouth shut, and he wasn't getting any money because he was no longer working royal then Queen Elizabeth agreed to pay for his security and up keep of royal lodge (childhood home of the Queen, George VI before he became king lived in royal lodge as his country home,the mum also used it after death of George VI and left it to Andrew on 99 years of lease).
Many article that I have read says that charles promised late Queen that he will look after Andrew.
Then sarah got breast cancer after she recover from that and now she has skin cancer.
It will look cruel if charles stop supporting them financially.
May be if charles don't support them, then Andrew also write tell all book or do more interview for money and embarrasse Royal family.
@@krishnavyas313Good point! Looks like Charles is stuck with this deal his mum made and Prince William will inherit his parasitic uncle. The threat of Andrew writing his own scathing memoir must be truly awful for the family.
Sarah is a loose cannon.
Yep. Still is.
Apparently so is RACHEL RAGLAND...
Sarah seems to be telling on herself in this book and may actually be proud of it. You know, we all know that one friend who was always the instigator or the one to suggest those capers which didn't always end well. That outing on the quad bikes WITH the future queen of England was so completely risky. How easy it would have been to hit a tree stump or large rock and have one or both go flying? Fergie's role in the Monarchy was destined to be cut short. Apparently, there was about to be a huge sigh of relief@
It's so fascinating to put all the stories from the different books you have reviewed together. Neither Fergie or Diana come out of it that well in regard to their behaviour behind the scenes or their treatment of those whose job it was to advise and look after them.
At least William and Edward struck gold in their choice of marriage partners, an achievement in a world where divorce is now common.
Diana and Fergie were immature for their age. Especially considering they both had two children which usually makes ppl mature sooner that they would otherwise have.
I enjoy your videos Shauna and having grown up when Diana & Fergie were working royals i think your analysis is spot on 😊
Thanks so much
I'm old enough to remember the press always taking a go at Fergie. And now, knowing how Di used to play to the press, I actually would not be surprised if she didn't "help" matters along while being nice to Fergie's face. At the same time, it truly seems that Fergie was out of her league in being a member of the RF. One wonders, had Andrew actually spent more time with her during the first few years, how different their lives might have been? Wasn't it said that Di & Andrew would have been a better match - Di certainly wasn't a good match for Charles!
I don't think Diana and Andrew would have good match because Diana complained about how charles was workaholic and didn't gave her much time, she had same complained about Dr. Khan.
And hear sarah and Andrew only met 42 days in a year for 1st 5 years of their marriage and then the saprated.
From this book Andrew came across as unbothered by bad treatment of his wife by midea and palace, and he was more inattentive husband than charles.
Andrew didn't support her and didn't even once he stood up for her.
And like charles, Andrew was also more of country man then a city guy.
Diana didn't enjoy country life.
The "real" Sarah was on full display several times after she separated from Andrew. Who could forget her attempting to sell access to Andrew to a (fake) Sheikh? OR if you wish to see her in full flight arrogantly dealing with those "lesser" than her, you have only to view the Australian 60 Minutes interview where she "tantrum-ed" before the cameras. Sorry Sarah, I'm not buying what you have to sell in this memoir. Thankyou Shauna for a great expose of this royal character.
Ive always thought that Fergie didnt really care how she was perceived, that she wanted to do what she wanted to do and that was that. So she might have said, sarcastically or not, that she let down the monarchy, but upholding the monarchy did not seem to be one of her priorities.
Have the Alarm set. Congratulations 🎊 and already jumped to 70k recognition well deserved 👏 👏👏 SIP 🥂
Yay! Thank you!
I am recognizing something here. I hope I’m not insulting people who are very well off here as I tell this story. But the well off part is important. When I was young I got to know several people with Sarah like behaviours. I was invited to take a ride in a very expensive car a young wealthy woman had been given by her father. It was the dead of winter in the Canadian prairies. Instead of the short around the block ride I expected I was treated to a terrifying ride through a snow and ice storm. We plowed our way through snow banks that had built up on the highway. There was no one around and if we had gotten stuck we would have frozen to death. We ended up in a different province at an expensive hotel for an expensive breakfast after hours of this dangerous drive. The ride home was just as perilous. When I expressed concern she just stated that daddy could buy a new car if she wrecked it. I had no way to get back home and I had to report for work. That’s the point. I had a boss to report to. If she tarnished her reputation she would still have an income. I wouldn’t. Over and over again i have seen this ‘Devil May Care” behaviour funded from Daddy’s bank account. I’ve seen the family buy the school grades and pay to get their children off the hook too many times. It doesn’t end well. Alcoholism, drug addiction, divorce, suicide, death by abortion, is in the cards for these people. In some level they know that those who have to pay their own way are actually more successful and happier. The moral is this: let your children learn the hard way. Let them experience reality. Let them grow up and not remain infantile. I’ve seen too much!
Told ya fergie's an asshole😊. Shes full of it. If her stories are true, driving a quad over a golf course would have done thousands of pounds in damage not to mention the work involved in fixing it, the day before a golf tournament! Thats nasty. & Knocking on that guys door when they have to be ready for anything the queen wants or anything that happens, equally nasty. I think she and andrew were forced by the queen (probably moreso Philip 😏) to seperate. Its as if both of them didnt want to. What people dont realise is that the aristocracy right up until Diana & Fergie's generation considered it very normal to have affairs. Its what they did for fun at their country houses, shooting weekends, parties etc. andrew doesnt seem too upset that she was cought, as we have seen they are still together. (Funny how as a 'single' prince he has never been linked to anyone else 🤔 apart from the guifre/epstein fiasco). No gold diggers after him? No one tempted him? It was a public seperation but not a private one. And as for Diana leaking the story, that shows just how devious and manipulative she was yet we are to believe Charles was always a cold hearted monster when we see the opposite from him? Queen of hearts? 💕 Charles is a saint for never publicly slating her.
As a former golf course groundskeeper myself, it nearly made me sick to my stomach to hear that part.
There were stories out about 10-20 years ago that Andrew was seeing various ladies in his social set but all very discreet. So no one who wanted publicity or attention.
While Sarah lived with Andrew, I think it became more friendship to raise the girls and afford Sarah protection.
Diana catfished Charles. In a interview, years before he took up with Diane, Charles said he felt the key to marital happiness was having common interests and hobbies. Diana pretended to love hunting, fishing, long walks in the country and Balmoral. Once the ring was on, the game was over. Charles was too much of a gentleman to break the engagement.
@@l.h.2543
Imagine the difference if Charles had been allowed to marry Camilla instead? It boggles the mind.
Her late Majesty the Queen, never referred to people as servants. It was always staff.
I think the senior courtier who gave telling off to sarah was her cousin and Diana's brother in law Robert Fellows.
That's why he didn't hesitate from giving telling off to royal Duchess
Agree Shauna. She was quick to blame others and pull the sympathy card out. She was sorry alright but only that she’d been caught
🇦🇺🦘🐨❤️💐💛🩷
Diana had borderline personality disorder and i think Sarah has this personality disorder as well
Love you Shauna. Such a talented and great personality. Sip❣️
Made my night! (Now to get my BIG head to bed!) 😂
I’m not sure these stories smack of entitlement Shauna. I think they smack more of embellishment, or even fabrication! 😂
Based on her recent behaviour, for instance at the Christmas service and more recently at Cannes, I’m not sure Sarah is capable of learning from her mistakes.
Poor Queen Elizabeth, gaining 2 troubled, daughters in law. Doesn't seem they ever helped.
Sarah was embarrassing in the engagement interview i cringed. She was like a big red Labrador jumping all over the place i died inside from second hand embarrassment 😳.
I am growing to really dislike these privileged people, who are so wrapped up in themselves and don't appear to appreciate what they have or the role and responsibility of the royal family. Overindulged overgrown children. Not speaking of the wonderful Charles, William, Catherine, Anne, Edward and Sophie and their ilk,of course.
Yes.
Unfortunately Sarah was her own worse enemy. She never took accountable for her actions or behaviour. It was always someone else. Very similar to the other seconds sons wife
We saw fergies behaviour last Christmas on the walk to church with the family .. running off to hug & talk to people in the crowd as they acknowledged her, one of her daughters had to go and physically pull her away & back to the pathway to church . Geez is she going to wreck her new opportunity at rejoining the family traditions or will she self sabotage again ? This is the first chapter I’ve joined in on in some time & the last until it finally ends. I’m looking forward to the next choice of book to review that doesn’t involve the Duchess of disaster .
Only a few chapters to go :) I've loved it!
It's interesting.
@jeangodding6348 Your comment made me remember how Fergie broke away from Princess Beatrice at Princess Eugenie's wedding as she spotted a family friend in the crowd outside the church. She was excited to see her friend, and afterwards she sheepishly rejoined her daughter who was patiently waiting for her on the steps of the church so they could go in together to be seated. I think Fergie was a ball of nervous energy that day. Her youngest daughter was getting married, her oldest daughter was preparing to read an excerpt from The Great Gatsby (and did a fine job considering that she is dyslexic) and she was going to be in the presence of the Queen and Prince Philip for the first time in a long while.
@@lisalivingston6473 yes despite what she might say in her own book, we consistently see her inappropriate behaviour in royal circles as well as everyday people’s s spheres where only the slightest bit of common sense would suffice . Whatever it is that manifests this poor behaviour is still present , we continue to see her bizarre ( drunken ? ) antics on stage as recently as the Cannes film festival this year .. she hasn’t evolved much in these last few decades of opportune rehabilitation .
I remember a child at my children’s school dressing up as “Fergie off on holiday” at Halloween. She had long red hair and carried a little case with a doll handing out of it while carrying another doll. It was very amusing at the time
I agree Shauna Sarah the victim lol poor Sarah I think the tall tales she tells are exaggerated or made up the ones with no proof they happened and Harry did the same 😂😂😂😂
Brilliant... can't wait for the next episode
Hang on a minute! Why was she gripping a rosary? She was married in the church of England, and there's no use of a rosary in the church of England I grew up in. 🤔
There actually are "high church" Anglicans who do use rosaries privately. But my guess is that Fergie had one that perhaps had been given to her by a Catholic dignitary or she had picked up somewhere because it was pretty. Then she just used it as a sort of rabbit's foot.
I certainly can't imagine her using it as a disciplined devotion, saying the rosary prayers, etc.
Good grief. It’s amazing. How do they choose these women ?
She loved to play the victim 😂
And who does that remind us of?🤭
Thank you Shauna - I don’t think I would have ever read this book but i appreciate you did and have shared it with us 😊
Diana and Fergie sound like spoilt brats messing around on the quad bike, etc. It makes me a bit mad that people still idolise Diana. She caused a lot of trouble. The royals must have breathed a sigh of relief when Edward chose Sophie, and William chose Catherine.
In a way, Diana couldn’t win in the situation with Sarah . I read that Charles once had said to Diana, “why can’t you be more like her?” I suppose he was comparing Sarah’s bubbly personality with Diana’s moodiness, but when Diana joined in Sarah’s shenanigans, Diana was criticized . I remember seeing a video of the two couples on a ski slope , Diana and Sarah giggling and elbowing each other so much so that Diana almost slipped. Charles grabbed her arm to right her, the irritation plainly showing on his face , and Diana obviously pulling her arm from his grasp .
Remember earlier Sarah wanted to impress everyone was getting along with everyone, was following every advice and was work horse that's why charles told Diana to be like sarah.
Congratulations on reaching 70K subscribers, Shauna! That's wonderful! Cheers...sip! 🥂🍾
Onward and upward! You are one of the best: witty, insightful, compassionate, non-judgemental. Thank you, Shauna!
Am so enjoying the reading of Sarah’s book and your thoughts on it. Thank you.
Good morning. 6:30am here in ⭐️ Texas 🇺🇸
hello, Cam. New Braunfels here. Where are you?
I havent been following the other chapters but i do wonder how much of her story is "embellished"
Good morning from Scotland just love your shows 😊😊😊 Oh must be my age its afternoon here 😘😘😘
Ditto ...and where has our summer gone 😏
@@margaretmckee7710 lol...Summer isn't officially here until June 21st! 😊😊😊
Sarah always struck me as having the poise and polish of a bull in a china shop.
Wonderful retelling and analysis, Shauna. Thank you for your thoughts and this channel.
As I was listening to Dianna & Sarah's bratty, and childish behavior. It dawned on me how, truly respectful and mature, Catherine has always been. Poor Queen Elizabeth.
It's not sarah related but have you watched Lost beyond Pluto's HEY AFP? I found it really enlightening. Love you reads and your comments
I seem to remember reading that Sarah referred to Sir Robert Fellowes as Mr Zed. He was a cousin of hers and was Diana's brother-in-law.
no one ever thinks that Andrew didn't love her and couldn't wait to get rid of her..... how much time did they spend together????
I doubt that because they are still living together.
So glad I found you shauna! You're a tonic! I agree with everything you say. You're brilliant. Sarah & Andrew deserve each other - both awful & egotistical!
Enjoying this book but my thoughts are Im finding Sarah a bit of a Flibbertigibbet.
Agree. My visual is a big red Irish setter puppy on high speed.
Fergie strikes me as a relentless fun seeker…zero impulse control. But she always gets out of fixes by being “a big hearted person” 🙄
I'm having a pretty clear notion that the two "ladies" must have helped themselves to a few drinks from the housebar before going on these joyrides ...
Hi from Brissie Shauna, great work always
Thank you! Cheers!
Poor Sophie 😮..what a awful thing to do to Sophie and Edward 😢.
I smell a Henry Wallis Sarah Rachel combo burger 😂😊. All cut from the same rags huh😂.
I really was sitting on the fence about Fergie. But got on a bit of a lean after hearing the bits n juices😂from her book so far. So I made a point of watching how Fergie carries herself in recent times...obviously understanding shes just come through the hell of cancer .But her arrogant side really is quite obvious isn't it.
I like Beatrice. I think shes adorable ❤ .
I believe it was Diana not Fergie who told where Sophie lived. Diana was Jealous of Sophie when she came onto the Scene. Sophie was. And still is a Beautiful Caring Women. But Diana's nose got put out of Joint. In my Honest Opinion. Diana did Alot of Sneaky things and Sarah got the Blame for everything. I'm not saying Fergie is Perfect far from it. But neither was Diana.
@@micheletorimaru9348I think Diana could be very vicious
All of the Yorks are entitled grifters.
At the end, when you said you didnt believe her contrition any more, I had exactly the same thought as you just before you said it. I think she is still using the same tactics today and that , rather than being an overgrown puppy who didnt mean to make the puddle on the carpet, she knows exactly what she is doing and the outcome that will occur. It strikes me that both Fergi and Diana were entitled brats who never grew up. If we had a woman who married in to our family and behaved in the manner these two did they would be frowned upon too. In fact it makes me wonder if half of Dianas wonderful work was a calculated ploy by Diana to improve her image, purely to try and make Charles look bad. She was manipulative enough and from Fergis account doesnt seem to care much for others unless it suits her. Like meghan I find it difficult to believe that someone who would treat family like that and be so disrespectful could really truly care about those outside. I have often thought over the last years that perhaps harry has married his mother. I also am intrigued by the idea that the divorce was planned by both Andrew and Fergi so she could make them some money. That would explain why they are still living together wouldnt it! Another thought provoking read! Wonderful Shauna - thank you. I didnt get a notification of your live so sadly missed it and had to listen after it was over. My fault as I didnt go into the community bit.
Congratulations on hitting 70k ❤❤❤
Echoes of Scott Morrison’s trip to Hawaii in that insistence on going skiing. Just because you can, doesn’t mean you should, unfortunately when you’re a public figure you are in the crosshairs because you are privileged
Bit like knock down ginger played by KIDS! They were a bloody pain! Plays the Pity card like someone else we know Shauna. ❤
What I find interesting about Sarah and Andrew, is that despite both of them having multiple relationships before they wed, after they divorced, neither has had a significant other.
IMO Sarah was always a loose cannon , but I don't believe she was ever ventictive towards Queen Elizabeth and the Royal family.
Agree…
Does the Church of England use the rosary? I’ve only heard of Catholics using it, though I’ve read that the rosary given to Diana by Mother Teresa was placed in her hands in the casket.
Some do and some don't. If it's a high church, as in strictly following catholic ( with a little "c") liturgy, sacraments.etc
@@swissuz thanks
As usual you hit the nail on the head, so much going on behind the scenes and hardly any truthful admissions. RF making the same mistake with H&M as they did with Diana. Nobody calls them out or defends themselves from accusations so will take what 30 years for all the mud that is being slung by H&M to finally be cleared up? Fergie and Diana were a couple of entitled brats and everyone just covered up their antics. Fergie should be kept from the public eye, she is not very nice and I’m afraid she and Prince Andrew have been terrible examples for their daughters, so I don’t trust either one of them either. A family of deceitful hearts and envious souls. It shows on all their faces.
So Fun, thanks!
Glad you enjoyed it!
I think Fergie was the original grifter.
I cant wait for the next episode... Feels like aaagggeeesss to go before the next one 😂
Monday night x
Your recaps are wonderful. From Brooklyn NY
I don't hate Sarah - but neither do I like her. She has always seemed to me to be pretty self-centered. Willing to instigate trouble - but never willing to accept the consequences. It's always someone else's fault. I'm not a fan. Not to mention her willingness to cover-up for Andrew's repulsive behaviour; he really is a CREEP (IMO).
Maybe some exuberant youths will bang on Sarah's door at midnight for funsies. Some people only realise how scary and annoying it is when it happens to them, instead of by them.
It's high ignorance.
Besides, it's scary enough to get a phone call late at night, let alone a knock on the door.
I love your videos Shauna! This is rather off topic but, I have had many co-incidences in the recent past after listening to old records or songs and the very next time I tune into your current video there they have been on your bookshelf, from Sherbet to Wings now to David Essex. I don't know why I'm telling you this. But, its coincidence is weirdly wonderful.
Oh wow! That’s really cool 😂
Fergie and Diana had a falling out. Fergie likes to gloss over all that. The midnight Door knock etc shows how juvenile their behaviour truely was. Sarah never really acknowledges her poor choices as she’s always got an excuse. The more I listen to her narrative I agree that the Harkles and Sarah are on the same track.
Diana, was devious and used the Press, and it seems even Fergie.
30 something and riding a quad bike at midnight? I'd be in bed by 10:00pm!
IMO, there is actually nothing in life that you can be half in or half out and achieve any true measure of success🌻Something/someone always suffers or falls by the wayside when you don't give your best effort. The Queen was right you have to be all in. I think that Sarah et al forgot that the BRF is a business not just a family.
Since 2020, I have never known The Royal Family to be this exciting !!! Why bother with a soap opera on mainstream TV when you can just follow these characters and their shenanigans 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I find it hard to believe the story about Sarah and Diana going off for a spin on a quad bike and the Daimler. WHY WOULD THOSE BE LEFT WITH THE KEYS IN THEM TO BE STOLEN??
Stolen by who ? The estate is on private land with tons of royal protection officers & thousand of acres that are owned by the monarch
Look at the parents behaviours and values and there front and centre is one of the reasons that I can't bring myself to trust their offspring. I don't agree that they should be promoted to senior royal positions. Too much inherited baggage.
And the York sisters were vicious to Catherine for years. No pass for them due to that if no other teasons.
Half-in and Half-out will never work. One would get all the benefits but not have to do the necessary work, they could do their thing.
