  • Meghan Markle's interview was gut-wrenching to watch as a new mom

    CNN ^ | Oct 2019 | Kara Alaimo
    On Friday, ITV news released a clip from an upcoming documentary which showed Meghan, Duchess of Sussex, holding back tears as she acknowledged the challenges she's faced as a newlywed and mother in the spotlight. "Thank you for asking. Not many people have asked if I'm OK, but it's a very real thing to be going through behind the scenes," she said, before confirming, in the words of her interviewer, that she "isn't really OK." It's no surprise that Meghan is struggling. Our society's lack of concern for the well-being of new moms is terribly disturbing — and it's even...

    Just 25 guests were present at the baptism today, which saw Archie Harrison Mountbatten Windsor christened in a private chapel at Windsor Castle, but the couple only released photographs celebrating with their immediate family. In a touching tribute to Harry's mother, Princess Diana's sisters Lady Jane Fellowes and Lady Sarah McCorquodale were prominent in the official picture. In the second image, which was black and white, Meghan was seen gazing into Harry’s eyes as the proud father looked down at Archie, while placing a hand on his wife’s arm.

    There was a time when people aspired to a world where race was an afterthought. It was always a tough slog, but we’d moved closer and closer over time. Then something funny happened – a political party realized they could benefit from division and that unity was bad for business. Unity would require a debate on issues and their merits, which was one they had been losing, so they opted for backsliding; divide to conquer. If you divide people into groups it is much easier to win. Groups of people are easier to manipulate than millions of individuals. It is easier...

    She kept the world guessing for weeks over what she and Prince Harry would call their first born, and stunned royal watchers when the pair eventually revealed the baby's name was Archie. Fans and experts alike praised the couple for shunning more 'traditional' monikers in favour of Archie, which means 'brave', and is often used as a shortened form of Archibold. Now friends of the Duchess of Sussex have claimed the former actress took inspiration for the little boy's first name from a beloved family pet. A former close friend of Meghan revealed that the ex-Suits actress and her mother...
  • BBC broadcaster Danny Baker fired over tweet comparing royal baby to chimpanzee

    05/09/2019 4:25:04 AM PDT · by rightwingintelligentsia · 35 replies
    Broadcaster Danny Baker has been fired from his role at the BBC over a now-deleted tweet comparing Meghan Markle and Prince Harry's newborn son to a chimpanzee. The widely-circulated post showed an image of a couple holding hands with a chimpanzee wearing a hat and coat, alongside the caption: "Royal Baby leaves hospital". The BBC Radio 5 Live broadcaster was accused of mocking the Duchess of Sussex's African-American heritage, with Archie Harrison Mountbatten-Windsor, who was born on Monday and will be seventh in line to the throne, becoming the first bi-racial British-American royal. Following widespread criticism, Baker again took to...
  • Archie Harrison: The meaning behind the royal baby's name

    05/08/2019 4:36:15 PM PDT · by CondoleezzaProtege · 55 replies
    BBC ^ | May 2019 | Francesca Gillett
    Archie means "genuine", "bold" or "brave" - and is more popular in Britain than the US. It was originally a shortened form of Archibald but is now often used as a name on its own. And, rather fittingly, Harrison - a name which was originally used as a surname - means "son of Harry". Mountbatten-Windsor is the surname which was created in 1960, combining the surnames of the Queen and Prince Philip when they married. The double-barrelled name was a concession to the Duke of Edinburgh, who was said to have complained that his children would not bear his name....

    OK, this...is CNN. Meaning CNN could go even lower, drilling through the rock to fall into some netherworld. Though the original tweet has been deleted, the question and quote remain in the original article. (The Daily Show's Amber Ruffin, among others, captured the original in all its unglory.)

    Just hours after Prince Harry and Meghan Markle revealed their newborn son to the world, the child’s name has been announced. The Duke and Duchess of Sussex have named their child Archie Harrison Mountbatten-Windsor, the couple revealed via Instagram. The Queen was told of the child’s name when she met him for the first time today, following Meghan and Harry’s two-minute interview at Windsor Castle.

The seventh-in-line to the throne, who was born at 05:26am on 6 May 2019, hasn’t yet had...

    So, Meghan Markle, the American biracial wife of Prince Harry, did it. She managed to have their baby (a boy) on her own terms. Which is to say, at an undisclosed location — although we all know the young British royal couple has been holed up at their Windsor home with the fairy tale name of Frogmore Cottage, we don’t know where she actually gave birth — and on an undisclosed timetable. We all found out about the birth when Harry and Meghan announced it on Instagram. (Buckingham Palace announced it too.) Nor did Meghan submit to the postpartum photo...

    “It’s funny, I’ve actually been joking the last few weeks. I had seen this documentary on Netflix about feminism, and one of the things they said during pregnancy was ‘I feel the embryonic kicking of feminism.’ I loved that, so boy or girl, whatever it is, we hope that that’s the case with our little bump,” the Duchess of Sussex said Friday at an International Women’s Day event. Her comment was in response to a question onstage when asked “how that bump” was treating her. The crowd responded with warm choruses of laughter. Markle joined a panel of high-profile female...

    Kensington Palace did something it hasn't done in months today: Issue a statement about a false story circulating about Meghan Markle and Prince Harry. Vanity Fair reported a day ago that Meghan and Harry are planning to raise their first baby gender fluid. The Palace called this "totally false." A source told Vanity Fair's Katie Nicholl that “Meghan has been talking to some of her friends about the birth and how she and Harry plan to raise their baby. Her exact word was fluid. She said they plan to raise their child with a fluid approach to gender and they...

    “Meg is extremely faithful,” a longtime friend tells PEOPLE in this week’s cover story. “We pray a lot together...She has had, and especially has now, a very close relationship with God.” Meghan, 37, was baptized into the Church of England in a secret ceremony last spring ahead of her wedding to Prince Harry. And the intimate service, which was a significant nod to Harry’s grandmother, Queen Elizabeth’s role as head of the Church of England, had special meaning for Meghan, as faith is a key pillar for her. “A deep sense of gratitude and humility has guided her,” the friend...

    Meghan Markle, 37, and Prince Harry, 34, will become parents in a matter of weeks when the Duchess of Sussex welcomes their first baby. Body language expert Judi James told Express.co.uk Prince Harry’s body language appears to show how much more protective he has become of his wife, as well as seeming to be “in awe” of her. “Their body language became more mirrored and even more exclusive than it had before. Harry’s eye-gazing with Meghan on the beach during their first tour shows such intense focus that it seems someone is trying to tap him on the shoulder to...

    One of the smartest things our Founding Fathers did was resist the urge to follow most of human history and rid this country of the concept of nobility. And thank God they did. If they hadn’t, we’d be “subjects,” subservient to the state and a ruling class. The eternal wisdom of the men who created the United States of America was on full display again this week thanks to the different ways two babies are being treated by our old colonizers. The Royal Family in England welcomed a new baby this week, little Prince Louis Arthur Charles. And good for...
