“Woke Royals”

MEGHAN MARKLE and Prince Harry’s appeal to US audiences has been questioned by a marketing expert who claims “Americans just aren’t into them” after one of the pair’s Netflix projects was axed by the streaming service last week.

Harry and Meghan’s return to the UK risks becoming the ‘focus’ of the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee, royal experts warned tonight – after the couple announced their comeback just minutes after it was revealed they were banned from the Buckingham Palace balcony.

A sensational statement at 3pm said the couple – as well as the Duke of York – would not be invited onto the balcony for Trooping the Colour, the spectacular start of her long weekend of celebrations.

Former President Donald Trump had some harsh words for Prince Harry, calling him an “embarrassment” for turning away from the British Royal Family.

The former reportedly made his comments during his upcoming interview on Piers Morgan Uncensored wherein he voiced his displeasure with Harry’s marriage to Duchess Meghan Markle.

It’s been an international enigma for the last two years: Who really owns the lavish Vancouver Island estate where Prince Harry and Meghan wintered in 2020 as they reportedly hashed out their plan to step back from official royal duties?

Is it the Russian-born billionaire who several media outlets linked to the property? Is it Canadian mining magnate Frank Giustra, as (erroneously) reported by the New York Post’s Page Six?

CBC and Radio-Canada found the answer, and it does indeed involve a Russian, but it wasn’t easy — it took an international leak of tax-haven data, access to a company’s internal records and intense research. All that, experts say, shows once again just how opaque Canada is when it comes to assets like real estate and who owns it.

This Oligarch should have his assets seized just for inflicting Woke Harry and Meghan on us.

Prince Andrew had “no choice” but to reach a settlement with Virginia Guiffre as his “head was in a vice”, a lawyer who previously represented survivors of deceased millionaire paedophile Jeffrey Epstein told Breitbart News in an exclusive interview.

It is an image now burned into my brain: Prince Andrew, in the eaves of Buckingham Palace, trying to explain to me why he thought a Newsnight interview might be a good idea.

He wanted to get across his innocence. He wanted to tell me he had never met the woman who was accusing him of sex trafficking. He wanted to try and prove that it hadn’t been him in the now-infamous photograph in Ghislaine Maxwell’s house – an arm flung around Virginia Giuffre.

And as he prepared his defence, something became very clear to our team: that this interview – albeit without any legal bearing whatsoever – would have to be as forensic as any court document. The questions were what any journalist would want to ask. But they were asked in a way that would make them a legitimate public record.

A PHYSIOTHERAPIST claims ex-client Prince Andrew tried to hug her after NAKED massages in his bedroom.

Emma Gruenbaum says he was her creepiest customer after sessions at Royal Lodge, Windsor.

The 50-year-old speaks out today after Andrew’s legal team said his sex-case accuser Virginia Giuffre “may suffer from false memories”.

Emma was a 34-year-old sports massage therapist at the Wentworth Club in Surrey when she started treating Andrew’s ex-wife Sarah Ferguson in early 2005.

Prince Andrew’s legal team are diving headlong into the mud and planning to paint his accuser, Virginia Roberts Giuffre, of being on par with twisted Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell.

The Duke of York will give evidence under oath next month in London as part of the civil sexual assault case against him.

Virginia Giuffre is suing Prince Andrew in the US, and the prince has repeatedly denied the allegations.

He will face a deposition, which means giving evidence to lawyers for use in court.

A date has been set for 10 March in London – which has been described as a neutral location.

Prince Andrew is approaching the toughest legal fight of his life and one thing is sure: it won’t be cheap, whatever the outcome.

The disgraced royal is facing seven-figure legal fees — at least — if Virginia Giuffre’s sexual abuse suit goes to trial, according to two lawyers surveyed by Bloomberg, while the cost of settling is expected to be well in excess of $5 million. With a personal fortune estimated by his private bank at 5 million pounds ($6.8 million) in 2017, funding the fight will be a challenge.

… The prospect of a jury trial follows the prince’s attorney’s decision on Wednesday to file legal papers strongly resisting sexual abuse claims brought against him by his accuser, Virginia Giuffre. In the papers, Andrew’s legal team denied the allegations and then sought to blame Giuffre for being partly responsible for her abuse. That move has been criticized as “cruel” and “inappropriate” by legal experts.

Prince Andrew’s legal team has filed legal papers in which the Royal denied all of Virginia Roberts’ sex abuse allegations as he prepares for a bitter court battle in the United States.

The papers, filed today by Prince Andrew’s legal counsel Andrew Brettler, contained a detail rebuttal of all of Roberts’ claims and also requested that the Royal be granted a trial by jury.

The Duke of York’s official rebuttal comes after a motion to dismiss the case on a legal technicality at the beginning of January was denied, and could see Prince Andrew himself take the stand in New York to argue his case in front of jurors.

You have to wonder at his lawyers.

He thought he knew best in responding to the Epstein scandal — and now he’s paying the price.

Who’d have thought a 95-year-old woman, who’s just lost her husband of seven decades, could be so utterly ruthless? Who could know she’d stand ready to desert her favorite child? And who could imagine that she would put her business — “The Firm,” as she calls it — ahead of her nearest and dearest.
