    *Larry Burkett's book on "Giving and Tithing" drew me closer to God and helped my spirituality. 2020 was a year I literally lived it. I cashed in my life savings and gave it all away. My total giving amounted to 40,000 dollars. Everyone thought I was delusional. Today, 1 receive 85,000 dollars every two months. I have a property in Calabasas, CA, and travel a lot. God has promoted me more than once and opened doors for me to live beyond my dreams. God kept to his promises to and for me*

      Agreed
      Just because Harry and Meghan repeatedly claim this, it doesn’t mean it’s true.
      The pair bang on about “leakings and planting of stories to the press” to divert attention away from THEM doing just that and is absolutely no proof at all that others engage in it.
      Brittany, don’t believe their lies. Why would Prince William suddenly start doing it now when he’s never done it before? Why would anyone in the royal family feel the need to engage with the press when they’d never done this before in an unsolicited fashion? Yet Meghan herself has form for this. Her MO has been self promotion and self publication and using all her friends and contacts to benefit herself. So Meghan leaking stories makes sense and also Meghan leaking lies in order to achieve some aim or retaliate against criticism also makes sense. But don’t for one minute believe Meghan’s claims of the royal family engaging in her own dirty games just because she says it as part of her deflecting and projecting.
      No one but Meghan leaks stories to the press.

I suspect the York Princesses will be gradually seen more, unofficially, stepping in and supporting until becoming full-time, in the fullness of time and their young children have grown. I'm thinking years here and not months. Most commentators want things now, when it's not necessary.

    There's no way William's friends are speaking with Richard Eden. William is not stupid, and he would be well aware of the situation. The Queen wanted William and Catherine to take the time to raise their family because she never got the chance to do that. I don't have a problem with the way they have done things. Look how well adjusted The Wale's children are? The way they are being raised goes a long way in avoiding another Harry type situation.
    There is zero chance of Harry and his IGLBW wife returning. They are not needed, and they didn't really do much when they were still part of the royal family. Rachel only did 72 engagements in 18 months, and most of those were less than an hour. You can't have people like that who are so selfish and want to be stars as part of the royal family. They need to work together as a cohesive unit, and H&M were never going to be able to do that.
    There's no way Zara is interested in becoming a working royal. She has her life sorted out very nicely, and she's not going to give that up.
    William and Catherine also do a lot of engagements that the public isn't aware of as well.
    I think Beatrice and Lady Louise will be the best option if William's looking for support.

    I really don't know how I feel about this "report." It's not 1 of my favorites b/c u seem to b dissing the Wales' for wanting to b there for their children, who at this time are probably scared of what's happening with their mum and William is concerned about his wife. They need to spend more time together, we're never promised tomorrow and u Brittany being a Christian should know that and respect that they are all going thru something together as a family and the workload can take a backseat for a little while! Let them enjoy their summer breaks and being together and raise their kids the best way they can so they don't turn out like H (not knowing where he fits in b/c he's the "spare") They will at least know without a doubt that the are loved more than just a person in the LOS. I am in no way a fan of the Sussex at all! But love the Wales'!

    I agree with what you are saying about Catherine and William and the danger of sliming down too much. I live in Canada and we should have received the visit of Princess Ann. Now, nobody is coming in her place. Very good reflection you are having here. Again, I agree. The visit to shake hands and meet people to encourage people who work to help society is the most important. The Earthshot prize is very well but I am very wary of the money those big corporations are giving. They will want something back. And the notion of it beeing a contest goes against the idea that the monarchy should rally everybody together.

This being one from each of Charles’s siblings to start with being the eldest from each of the cousins. Zara would also be good at a later date. This is after getting rid of Harry from ever being a working Royal again. No way should he ever be allowed back after the way he has behaved and what he has done.

    There was a guardian article that argued that although abolishing the mornachy would be akin to wishing the British weather to be less rainy, there is a need to keep the institution leaner to avoid the apathy or republican sentiment from thriving. Further the mornachy usually reinvents itself sublty in a measured manner and is not guided by world dynamics, just look at the issue of diversity in employment while govt institutions are quick to be politically correct in that sense the monarchy still maintain their old way of doing things since maintaining tradition is what they do best. W has had his grandparents and parents blessings in how he conducts himself and that is sufficient confirmation that he will do what's best when the time comes. Finally I would caution you on trusting sources referring to themselves as W's friends and the best confirmation we have is the fact that during C's health crises we heard nothing from their friends even when her bullying was at its peak. Good work though Brittany. May you reach any milestone you so wish.

    Brittany!
    You mentioned Princess Anne doing a couple of royal engagements a week (prior to her recent health concerns and hospitalisation). A couple a week? No!! Our Princess Royal performed a couple a day!
    She is by far one of the busiest working royals carrying out well over 700 events a year. Whether they are local or not and whether they are of a smaller template than the large, showy public affairs doesn’t matter, work is still work and bearing in mind her age, she really does follow in her mother’s footsteps and puts duty and service first and before her own needs and wants.
    Just wanted to make that point because saying Princess Anne does “a couple of engagements a week” is just so off the mark and doesn’t represent how hard she truly does work for the monarchy.

      Every reign is different. The number of family and their ages shifts from reign to reign.
      The numbers matter less than the loyalty. There is NO pressure in the monarchy to meet the workload of QEII’s reign. Her cousins, their wives, and her family were ALL younger.
      It obvious that William is including Beatrice. Eugenie should be excluded due to her loyalty to the Sussexes.
      Including more minor royals WON’T help, because they won’t have the same cachet.
