bitchy | Sean Combs sentenced to 50 months in prison, with time served it’s 36 months

Sean Combs’ sentencing hearing was held on Friday, October 3. Months ago, Combs was convicted of two counts of transportation for prostitution, but acquitted of sex trafficking and the RICO charge. His lawyers asked for a reduced sentence because Combs “got sober” in jail, where he was being detained before, during and after his trial. His lawyers said it was the longest Combs has been drug-free in his adult life, and he now blames his drug use on all of his degenerate, abusive behavior. So, what happened at his sentencing?

Sean “Diddy” Combs was sentenced to 50 months in prison after being convicted on two prostitution-related charges back in July. Since he will get credit for time served, he will be in prison for 36 months — or three years. The judge also sentenced Combs to five years of supervised release and imposed a $500,000 fine against him — the maximum fine allowable.

When Judge Arun Subramanian sentenced him, Combs had his head lowered, with his shoulders hunched and his hands clasped.

Prior to being sentenced, Combs apologized to his former girlfriends, friends and family, calling his behavior “disgusting, shameful and sick.” He said his children “deserve better,” and said that he’d failed his mother as a son.

Subramanian said a lengthy sentence was necessary “to send a message to abusers and victims alike that exploitation and violence against women is met with real accountability.”

Earlier in the sentencing proceedings, Assistant U.S. Attorney Christy Slavik told the judge that Combs’ “respect for the law is just lip service.” Slavik said Combs, 55, had already booked speaking engagements as early as next week, anticipating a possible release from prison.

“That is the height of hubris, your honor,” Slavik said. “Even now at sentencing for his conviction for two federal crimes … he doesn’t fully grapple with how his actions got him here.”

[From People]

It should have been life in prison. It should have been fifty years. But… fifty months isn’t nothing. Three years isn’t nothing. I hope he ends up serving a full three years. What I’m afraid of is that Combs’ lawyers are going to march right into the Trump White House and ask for a pardon or a commutation, and I believe Trump will give it to Combs as well. When that happens, we should be outraged, but not shocked in the least. They’ve been telegraphing that for months.

bitchy | Sophie Chandauka is closing Sentebale’s UK office & canceling polo fundraisers

by jummy84 October 6, 2025
written by jummy84

Back in March, Prince Harry and Prince Seeiso resigned as patrons for Sentebale, the charity they co-founded in honor of their mothers. Sophie Chandauka was the reason why they stepped down – as Sentebale’s chair, Chandauka was looting the charity’s reserves and blowing money on high-priced “consultants” who didn’t do anything or bring in any extra money. When the board of trustees asked Chanauka to step down, she ran to the British Charity Commission and lied her ass off, claiming that she was being bullied by racists. She kept giving unhinged interviews and making a horse’s ass out of herself for months. During that time, the Charity Commission investigated both sides. They cleared Harry and everyone else of bullying and harassment, but they did nothing to rein in Chandauka’s sinister actions within Sentebale.

To this day, Chandauka is still Sentebale’s chair, though almost all of the original trustees have resigned in disgust. In August, we learned that Chandauka mothballed Sentebale’s Children’s Center in Lesotho, a center which provided critical care to kids with HIV. We also learned that she’s blowing through the cash reserves of the charity, and she fired almost all of Sentebale’s London staff. Well, on Friday, Chandauka finally revealed Sentebale’s current finances, and she and Iain Rawlinson – a longtime associate of Prince William – also announced that they closing Sentebale’s London office. Not only that, but Sentebale will no longer have fundraising polo matches.

No more polo matches: Sentebale has scrapped its fundraising polo matches after a row with the Duke of Sussex. The charity based in southern Africa said it would stop using the sport as a way of raising money as it distances itself from the Duke after a bullying and racism dispute. Funds raised from the Sentebale ISPS Handa Polo Cup – which the Duke personally took part in – represented 18 per cent of the charity’s income last year. However, a report into its yearly accounts published on Friday showed that polo would no longer feature as the charity’s flagship fundraiser.

Iain Rawlinson the weasel: Rawlinson, a member of Sentebale’s board of trustees, told the Telegraph: “These polo games, which attract great generosity from high-net worth individuals or funds who want to support the charity – those events definitely have their place. We’re not being critical about that as a concept. The reason for [dropping it] is it puts quite a lot of pressure on individuals, and it can mask structural weakness in the financial model of the charity.”

Rawlinson on Harry’s generosity: As an example, he cited the Duke’s £1.2m donation from the proceeds of his memoir, Spare, as masking “the fault lines in the financial model which had really been producing losses since 2017… Those problems can be summarised by saying there was a very narrow but very loyal donor base for the charity. But it also masked the very high level of cost…where those costs could only be borne by the virtue of the generosity of Prince Harry.” He explained that what future donating organisations would like to see is “a more resilient financial model, which is not dependent on a single patron, for example”.

No more London office: Elsewhere in the accounts, the closure of Sentebale’s former London office, which was costing the charity £650,000 yearly, was listed as part of an effort to reduce £1m a year. Mr Rawlinson said: “If you have got a £600,000 plus cost in the centre of the organisation, which is not programme specific and can’t be recovered through programmes, you have to go and do events. You have to lean on the patron to play polo, you have to do all of that type of thing. And then that creates a certain modus operandi in the organisation.”

[From The Telegraph]

The Telegraph’s report also included quotes from Chandauka, which read as corporate double-speak, lies and bullsh-t. Don’t even bother. They’re still doing the most to blame Harry for… financially supporting a charity HE founded to honor HIS mother. They have a grudge against Harry for… giving millions of dollars to Sentebale and organizing polo fundraisers. They claim that model wasn’t sustainable. Well… we’re seeing Chandauka and Rawlinson’s sustainability in action. They lost the Sentebale polo matches’ main donor. Most of the old donors left with Harry and Seeiso. Chandauka is looting the reserves to pay for “consultants,” and they’ve now mothballed Sentebale’s Children’s Center in Lesotho AND closed Sentebale’s London office. I thought Sophie had all of these big plans, I thought her expensive consultants were fundraising rainmakers? Why is Sentebale struggling so badly under Chandauka and Rawlinson’s leadership if they’ve gotten exactly what they wanted?

bitchy | Eugene Levy wasn’t ordered to avoid asking Prince William about his brother

by jummy84 October 6, 2025
written by jummy84

I ended up watching one episode of AppleTV+’s The Reluctant Traveler. I’ve never watched the show before, and I’m probably not going to start. The whole feel of the “Prince William episode” was awkward. Many are putting the blame squarely on William’s shoulders, but I’ll admit something: William would not have come across quite as badly as he did if Eugene Levy knew how to interview people. That was the fundamental problem – Levy’s job isn’t “journalist” or “celebrity interviewer” or “professional conversationalist.” He was just trying to take a tour of Windsor Castle when all of this got thrown onto him. Levy’s stilted discomfort added to William’s dullness, awkwardness and rizzlessness. The show’s editors left in all of those awkward pauses, they left in the lack of segues, they left in William’s habit of making some awful comment about how he doesn’t know anything about history, laughing at himself and then glancing quickly over to Levy, who was never laughing. It looked like William was just performing a series of rehearsed monologues while Levy blinked and tried to spy the exit. Hilariously, Levy has been giving interviews in the wake of this episode, and the only thing people are asking HIM is “why didn’t you ask William about Harry and Meghan??”

Eugene Levy is explaining why he steered clear of asking Prince William about his estranged brother Prince Harry and sister-in-law Meghan Markle during their much-talked-about sit-down at Windsor Castle. The Canadian actor and comedian, 78, joined the Prince of Wales, 43, for the Oct. 3 episode of The Reluctant Traveler on Apple TV+. Speaking to ITV News in an interview released Oct. 2, Levy said he was not told to avoid the topic of Harry and Meghan — but chose not to bring them up.

“Were you ever told you couldn’t ask questions, for example, about Harry and Meghan? Did you find that was just something you didn’t want to go near?” the reporter asked.

Levy replied, “I was not told I couldn’t ask anything, but it wasn’t really, you know, up to me, to get into that. I had no interest in asking him about that, because it was, you know, very delicate issue and certainly not up to me to get into it.”

“I think there were other things, you know, I could lead the conversation to that might be interesting for him and interesting for the world to hear, but that was something I wasn’t necessarily interested in getting into,” Levy continued.

[From People]

“I was not told I couldn’t ask anything.” First of all, I don’t believe that. I think somewhere, someone at the palace sent some AppleTV producer an email saying “tell Levy to avoid Sussex questions.” These are the same f–king people who were micromanaging Meghan’s necklaces and Suits scripts after all – it’s simply not believable that they would send big dummy Peggington in there with his rehearsed speeches and expect him to field questions about Harry and Meghan on the fly. Second of all, that’s the reason why Willy gave this “interview” to Levy – because he’s not a professional journalist, because of course there were no follow-up questions, because of course Eugene Levy was told that certain topics were off-limits and he adhered to those rules. Meanwhile, in an interview with Town & Country, Levy claimed that he genuinely didn’t know that he would be meeting William until he got to England and he was already filming there.

Eugene Levy wasn’t planning to interview Prince William when he went to Windsor Castle. The veteran actor didn’t even know he was going to meet the future King until he was in the UK to film an episode for season three of his Apple TV+ series, The Reluctant Traveler With Eugene Levy. “The only thing I knew was when I was on camera filming the episode and found out I got an invitation from him to come to Windsor Castle,” Levy tells Town & Country. “I didn’t know he was gonna be on the show.” Even then, Levy thought it was only going to be a tour around the castle at best. He didn’t realize he was about to spend the better part of the day in conversation with Prince William.

Levy tells T&C he was pleased that the Prince felt comfortable enough to speak about those [personal] issues with him. But he admits there’s one lingering question he still wishes he had asked. “I was sorry I didn’t get a chance to ask him why he picked this show for an interview quite this extensive. I wish I had asked him that,” Levy says. “There must have been something about [this show] or about me that made him feel that this could possibly be a very good vehicle for him to do it. It appears he was familiar with who I am because of American Pie, but there must have been something else.”

[From Town & Country]

“Even then, Levy thought it was only going to be a tour around the castle at best. He didn’t realize he was about to spend the better part of the day in conversation with Prince William.” You can really feel that within the episode too, that Levy was completely unprepared to spend that much time with a prince who had nothing else to do. William had no meetings, no events, no school run, no kid’s football practice. It came across that way too, that William simply has a lot of time on his hands and he refuses to fill his time with meaningful work or tasks or even hobbies. Anyway… there are already a lot of thinkpieces and KP clean-ups on this, so this week should be pretty fun.

bitchy | Duchess Meghan stepped out for the Balenciaga show at Paris Fashion Week

by jummy84 October 6, 2025
written by jummy84

In the past two years, there have been HUGE reshuffles at nearly every major fashion house. It’s a pretty crazy moment for fashionistas and people who study the fashion industry. During Paris Fashion Week, many of the new creative directors of the most recognizable brands in the world gave their debut collections. One of those new chief creatives? Pierpaolo Piccioli’s first-ever collection for Balenciaga after 16 years at Valentino.

The Duchess of Sussex loved wearing Piccioli’s Valentino designs, and on Saturday, she stepped out for her first-ever Paris Fashion Week to attend his debut collection with Balenciaga. I’m assuming that the Balenciaga team styled Meghan, because that’s how most of these “celebrity appearances” at fashion shows work – you get to wear something fresh from the runway and the designers’ stylists want everything to look on-theme. Meghan wore all-white – elegant white trousers, a billowy white button-down and a white cape. She also wore black pumps and carried a black bag. I’m assuming the shoes and bag are Balenciaga as well – Balenciaga has always done some majorly coveted handbags, and I hope they’re prepared for the Meghan Sussex bump. From Hello! Mag:

Meghan, who teased her arrival in the French capital with an Instagram story overlaid with the French track “Viens on essaie” by Vitaa and Julien Doré, was there “in support Pierpaolo Piccioli, who recently assumed the role of Creative Director for the House”, a spokesman for Meghan tells HELLO!.

“Over the years, the Duchess has worn a number of designs by Pierpaolo. They have worked closely together collaborating on design for key moments on the world stage. She has long admired his craftsmanship and modern elegance, and tonight was no different,” said the spokesman. “This evening reflects the culmination of many years of artistry and friendship, reflected in her support for his new creative chapter at Balenciaga.”

[From Hello]

Nice. As I’m writing this, I’ve completely avoided the British tabloid coverage of this. I assume that it will take them a good 12 hours to get their talking points from the palace. What else?? As Vogue pointed out, while this is Meghan’s first-ever appearance at Paris Fashion Week, in her pre-Sussex era, she attended shows at New York Fashion Week, including the runways for Tory Burch, Peter Som, Wes Gordon and Misha Nonoo. Meghan also ran into Anna Wintour at the show and Anna sounded very, very pleased to see Meghan in Paris. American Vogue cover WHEN?? It’s honestly past time for an American Vogue cover. PS… Meghan stepped out in black after the show!!

bitchy | George Clooney: ‘I have normalcy, I drive my kids to school every morning’

by jummy84 October 5, 2025
written by jummy84

This week, George Clooney has been promoting Jay Kelly, his latest film. It’s directed by Noah Baumbach and I read one scathing review of it at the Daily Beast. The review notes that the film is “saccharine, toothless, and cheesily meta” and it’s “straining to thread a needle so that it bittersweetly laments its A-lister’s shortcomings while nonetheless forgiving him for them.” And on top of all that, Laura Dern plays Jay Kelly’s publicist. HARD PASS. Anyway, I wanted to note something I was thinking about as Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban’s marriage suddenly crashed and burned this week: one week ago, I definitely would have said that the Clooneys are much more likely to split than Keith and Nicole. Especially given the vibe around George and Amal for the past year. But according to George, everything is going swimmingly in his marriage and his family. From some of his assorted interviews:

His routines: “I have normalcy. You know, I drive my kids to school every morning. I have normalcy — except for this [premiere]!”

He isn’t suffering from a “what does it all mean” crisis like Jay Kelly: “There wasn’t that many similarities, in a weird way. Because he’s a guy who’s just so sad about his career and his life because he didn’t have friends and family, and he surrounds himself with people that just, he paid. I’ve been very lucky to have great family and great friends, and my kids actually like me still. They’re young.”

His big life lesson: “The greatest lesson I learned is to marry the right person, which I did. And so, it has been nothing but an honor and a pleasure to be married to my wife.” George, 64, also shared that he and Amal, 47, marked their latest anniversary by going out to dinner together.

[From People Magazine]

The bloody school run! Did I miss a memo or something? When did “the school run” become the sole barometer for “a humbling experience and an equalizer among men?” The way Prince William goes on and on about the school run, you’d think it was the most important aspect of parenthood. As for his marriage… well, who knows. I certainly wouldn’t want to be married to a ratf-cking drama queen, but Amal certainly appears to be in it for the long haul.

bitchy | Mail: Ariana Grande & Ethan Slater’s relationship is currently ‘struggling’

by jummy84 October 5, 2025
written by jummy84

In the summer of 2023, a huge gossip story broke over the course of several weeks. Ariana Grande left her then-husband, then we learned that she was seeing her costar Ethan Slater, and that was the reason for her divorce. Then we learned that Ethan was married and he and his wife just had a baby not even a year before he met Ariana. Two marriages destroyed, all because of an on-set love affair. Well, Ariana and Ethan have given it a go ever since. They’ve been together, they’ve tried to have a real relationship. And obviously, Ariana is starting to get bored. It sounds like Ethan isn’t really into it either. From a Daily Mail exclusive:

Ethan Slater thought he was stepping into a fairytale when he fell for megastar Ariana Grande on the set of Wicked nearly two years ago… but the happy ending looks further away than ever for the couple. Back then, both left long-term partners: Ariana split from realtor husband Dalton Gomez, 30, after two years of marriage, and Ethan, 33, left his high-school sweetheart and now ex-wife Lilly Jay, 31.

Cue the social media meltdown. Fans roasted them as ‘homewreckers,’ memes went viral faster than Ariana’s ponytail whipping around her head. Then Lilly herself went public with a viral essay calling Ariana ‘not a girl’s girl’, spilling on what it was like to lose her high school sweetheart to a Broadway star.

The Spotlight hears that Ethan (once best known for playing SpongeBob SquarePants in a musical) has since mended his relationship with Lilly as they co-parent their three-year-old son. But insiders say he often looks like a man caught between the life he had and the globe-trotting whirlwind he signed up for with Ariana. One source adds, ‘He sometimes wonders if he should have stayed in his quieter world; the contrast is brutal.’

Because Ariana is busy: touring arenas, rehearsing the sequel Wicked: For Good and juggling media appearances. All of which, my source says, have left Ethan struggling to keep pace – especially while being an involved dad to his son.

‘He loves her, but he’s drowning in the circus of her life,’ one insider explains. ‘He’s used to a controlled Broadway stage, not sold-out arenas screaming for every move. Even when he’s home, he’s mentally halfway through the tour or rehearsals. It’s exhausting just watching him try to keep up.’

Just days before Ariana’s big VMA night in September, Ethan was spotted quietly in Jersey City with Lilly and their little boy, co-parenting duties in full swing. Meanwhile, Ariana was surrounded by brother Frankie, stylist Law Roach, Lady Gaga and basically her own mini army. Ethan? Nowhere in sight.

Their last public appearance together was, incredibly, in late April at a preview of Little Shop of Horrors, supporting Ariana’s Victorious co-star Liz Gillies – and before that, the Oscars in March, where they were photographed hugging and chatting all night. Sources tell The Spotlight that the intensity of Ariana’s schedule – combined with the shadow of her high-profile exes and past fleeting romances – has created tension.

I hear the couple won’t confirm, or deny, any split until after Wicked: For Good premieres, in an attempt to keep the attention off their relationship. But behind the curtain, I’m told, the fairytale has ended. Ariana is flying, and Ethan is somewhere in the wings, missing the calm he left behind.

[From The Daily Mail]

That last part is critical – there probably won’t be a big split announcement until after all of the Wicked promo. That being said, it’s not like Ari and Ethan really put their relationship front-and-center in the promotion last year. They even kept their distance on red carpets, and they were only photographed together behind-the-scenes at some awards shows. Anyway, this sh-t is as much of a cliche as Keith Urban. We all knew how it would play out as soon as we learned of their affair. Ethan blew up his life for a couple of years with a pop diva who only does three-year relationships, max.

bitchy | Samantha Markle calls out TMZ & the Daily Mail for the ‘Thomas is fine’ stories

by jummy84 October 5, 2025
written by jummy84

This week, Samantha Markle popped up online to claim that her father, Thomas Markle, was stuck in a building in the Philippines following a massive earthquake in the country. Samantha put the blame squarely on the Duchess of Sussex’s shoulders, because clearly, if Meghan would only allow the white trash side of her family to exploit her, then Toxic Tom wouldn’t be in the Philippines in the first place. Well, funny story. Toxic Tom called up TMZ and said Samantha was lying. I added an update with the TMZ link in the post a few days ago, but here’s the story:

Thomas tells TMZ … he’s safe in his hotel room, and in no way is he “trapped” and “unable to walk” … claims made by his daughter Samantha Markle on X, in which she said her dad was stuck on the 19th floor of a building after a massive 6.9-magnitude earthquake shook the province of Cebu on Monday.

Thomas tells us his hotel wasn’t even impacted by the quake at all, adding “The epicenter was 100 miles from here.”

As for his daughter Samantha’s claims, Thomas says he hasn’t even spoken to Samantha, so he isn’t sure why she claimed he was trapped.

Instead, TM insists he’s living pretty well, adding … “I’m currently sitting on the couch in my hotel room, with my feet kicked up and watching Charlie Chan movies. I’m quite comfortable.”

[From TMZ]

Many outlets updated their stories, and some outlets devoted new pieces on what seemed like a breakdown in communications between batsh-t crazy father and daughter. The Daily Mail did a new story in which they linked back to TMZ and basically called Samantha crazy.

Well, funny story. Samantha is now calling out the Daily Mail, and she’s posted a bunch of text messages between herself and the Daily Mail editor Caroline Graham, who was in the Philippines with Thomas Markle? Previously, Graham also moved down to Rosita, Mexico to coach Tom and exploit him against Meghan. Samantha is also calling out TMZ and saying that Thomas never spoke to them either? Here’s my larger question: why the f–k is the Daily Mail’s Caroline Graham still *this* invested in Thomas Markle? They’ve already proven that they can get him to repeat their unhinged scripts, they’ve already paid him to sell out every single thing about Meghan. It’s been seven and a half years since Meghan cut him off – she’s not going to suddenly change her mind. This is sunk-cost fallacy on the Mail’s part.

bitchy | Royalist: Princess Anne ‘delivered an epic snub to Harry’ by visiting Ukraine

by jummy84 October 5, 2025
written by jummy84

Do you remember King Charles’s coronation in 2023? Do you remember how it was scheduled on Prince Archie’s fourth birthday? Do you remember how much of the energy before, during and after the coronation was devoted to Prince Harry and Meghan Sussex? For months, the coronation storyline was “will the Sussexes be invited” and “will they come?” When Meghan skipped it, they were enraged and they wouldn’t shut up about why she didn’t come back to allow them to scream at her and abuse her. Even the coronation itself felt like it was all about Harry, what he was wearing, who he spoke to, how long he stayed (he left England immediately following the Chubbly), and most importantly, how Harry was “snubbed.” That was a major storyline: sure, the king’s son came to the coronation, but we’re still going to punish him for his crimes of living in California! One of those snubs was… Princess Anne wearing a plumed hat, with a feather blocking some of Harry’s view. Seriously. I bring all of this up because Tom Sykes claimed that “Princess Anne Delivers Epic Snub to Harry in Ukraine.” You see, Harry visited Ukraine last month, and Anne visited the country this week. Here’s Sykes’ take.

Remember the coronation feather? That giant plume on Princess Anne’s hat, which just happened to block Prince Harry’s face from the cameras as he sat in Westminster Abbey for his father’s big day? At the time, there was chatter that Anne herself had wondered whether she should remove it, but she didn’t, and the message, intentional or not, was unmistakable: the showrunners of this soap opera know how to deploy their bit part actors with ruthless efficiency.

Well, they’ve done it again. For, today, it emerged that Anne was parachuted into Harry’s patch — Ukraine — and not just Ukraine, but the very territory you’d think was reserved for Harry alone: the rehab centers, the veteran recovery programs, the Invictus turf.

Other than the, uh, entire itinerary, the contrast couldn’t be sharper. When Harry went to Kyiv last month, his trip was shrouded in secrecy. His meetings weren’t photographed. A rumored encounter with Zelensky has never been confirmed. Harry brought along a friendly Guardian journalist and photographer, and fell, inevitably, into the trap of talking about himself. The predictable result was that the memoir, his father, and his grievances made headlines, rather than what the trip was supposed to highlight: the recovery of wounded veterans in Ukraine. Noble work, yes, but muddied in execution.

Anne? No fuss, no Guardian interview, no Netflix crew, no need to explain or complain. Just the pictures: shaking hands with Zelensky, sitting with amputees in physiotherapy, watching disabled veterans in the gym, poking her nose into the “salt rooms” used for mental and spiritual rehabilitation (yeah, we can do touchy-feely too, pal). Straightforward duty, photographed, packaged, and broadcast by both the palace and the Ukrainians.

Crucially, Anne was there officially, at the request of the British government. Harry had “permission” to go, sure, but Whitehall was visibly uneasy about him freelancing on geopolitics. They couldn’t stop him, but they could make sure he was upstaged. Enter Anne: the hardest-working royal, the archetype of service without ego, beaming out images that Zelensky and Harry weren’t ever going to be allowed to deliver.

Harry’s camp said that Anne’s trip was “great” and that “anything that shines a light on Ukraine is to be welcomed.” Harry is passionate about the cause; he has shown that. But I still can’t help wondering whether, for Meghan and Harry, seeing his aunt beam out the very images he was denied, it all felt very like the coronation feather all over again.

[From The Royalist Substack]

It IS the coronation feather all over again, but not in the way Sykes means. It’s another version of the feather because the Windsors are obsessed with Harry, and they have constantly shown that 90% of what they do and the decisions they make are all for an audience of one: Harry. Anne’s trip didn’t overshadow Harry’s trip last month – Anne’s trip exposed (yet again) that the Windsors are desperate to ride Harry’s coattails and colonize his life and achievements. It’s actually not a flex to admit that the whole-ass British government threw a tantrum and begged President Zelenskyy not to publish his photo with Harry. It’s an admission of how far the British monarchy and government will go to thwart, harm and marginalize Harry through official channels. Also: Harry’s trip was photographed. He was photographed meeting with veterans, he was photographed receiving personal gifts, he was photographed visiting the Alley of Heroes. Ukrainians spoke openly about how they feel like Harry has a Ukrainian spirit, a Ukrainian soul. They admire him and they want to see more of him. Harry’s trip got much more global attention than Anne’s. I would be willing to bet that Harry’s trip got more attention within Ukraine as well.

bitchy | Did Princess Kate wear a grey suit on purpose, as a reference to Prince Harry?

by jummy84 October 4, 2025
written by jummy84

Yesterday, Commodore Keen wore a grey Bella Freud suit to an RAF base. The Princess of Wales was appointed the Royal Honorary Air Commodore in 2023, and this was her first-ever trip to RAF Coningsby. I’ve included more photos of her visit in this post. Anyway, I didn’t have much to say about Kate’s suit yesterday. It was fine – appropriate, sedate, professional. If I have one criticism, it’s that Kate actually needs more of a flared or straight legged trouser – the subtle taper of the trousers is unflattering, imo.

Well, it didn’t even occur to me yesterday that Kate was actually sending a “message” by wearing a grey suit. Where else have we seen “grey suit” written and discussed ad nauseum in the past week? That’s right, Prince Harry’s clapback on the Sun. Harry didn’t actually say “the men in grey suits,” but he referenced nefarious people behind the scenes who are trying to sabotage his reconciliation with his father. Diana was the one (I think) who coined “the men in grey” term in reference to her biggest opps, the palace courtiers. Diana’s youngest definitely shares her hatred for these shady figures pulling the strings and manipulating the Windsors. So… Kate’s message is that she can wear a grey suit as well! She’s one of the shady courtiers turning father against son and brother against brother! Honestly… that’s on brand for Kate. We’re long past the Linchpin Era, when Kate tried to convince everyone that she alone could repair royal relations. She’s in her Men In Grey era now.

During this visit, Kate also “revealed” that Louis wants to become a fighter pilot. When she next visits a garden, she’ll say Louis wants to be a gardener. When she next visits a mill, she’ll say Louis wants to work in fashion.

bitchy | Eden: ‘Senior government figures are also keen’ for the Sussexes to reconcile

One week ago, the Daily Mail’s Richard Eden had a funny/odd exclusive: there is a sinister plot to undermine the Prince and Princess of Wales! Considering William and Kate are regularly undermined by lace-front wigs and task-heavy gophers, I didn’t think much of Eden’s reporting. It was basically a rehash of Brit tabloid reports about the Sussexes in the past month – something about Harry’s desperation to educate his children in the UK (a lie) and how Harry is begging his father for a royal property (another lie) and how Charles is seriously considering “bringing the Sussexes back” when Harry and Meghan haven’t even apologized for forcing Will and Kate to be such racist a–holes! Well, Eden is still on the case in this week’s column: “How senior Government figures have joined ‘Establishment plot’ to bring back Harry and Meghan, I’m told. I exposed scheming against William and Kate last week… now there’s a twist even I didn’t see.” This reminds me so much of the breathless four-sentence headlines the Sussexes have inspired when they do things like “take a trip to Jamaica” and “post a photo for a holiday.” Anyway, the main thrust of Eden’s column:

Two days after I exposed a sinister Establishment ‘plot’ to undermine the Prince and Princess of Wales and bring back the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, accusations were made public last week about a rival conspiracy. The claims emanated from Prince Harry himself, who decided to voice his suspicions that unnamed ‘sources’ were at work trying to ruin his hopes of a reconciliation with King Charles and, eventually, the rest of the Royal Family.

Harry was moved to issue a public statement after The Sun newspaper ran a front-page report suggesting last month’s reunion with his father had been more formal than expected. It was claimed the duke had been left feeling he was being treated as an official visitor, rather than family. In his response to the story, Harry’s spokesman said the claims were ‘pure invention-fed, one can only assume, by sources intent on sabotaging any reconciliation between father and son’.

The ‘sources intent on sabotaging any reconciliation’ – the duke’s words – are understood to be officials or courtiers who work for the King….Harry’s decision to make public his claims of ‘sabotage’ vividly illustrates the seriousness – I would say desperation – of his hopes for a reconciliation with the King.

His appetite for a reunion is, however, leading the duke down the dangerous path once taken by his late mother, Princess Diana, who became increasingly convinced that ‘men in grey suits’ were to blame for her difficulties. Encouraged by the lies told to her by the BBC’s rogue reporter Martin Bashir, she agreed to give the explosive Panorama interview that ruined her relationship with the Royal Family forever and, in Prince William’s words, contributed significantly to the fear, paranoia and isolation of her final years.

There is no evidence of a plot against Harry. The Sun’s report is likely to have been the result of second-hand whispers from who-knows-where? In my experience, Harry’s remaining friends and colleagues in California are just as gossipy as the ones he left behind in this country.

The real plot is the one I exposed last week, which involves a relentless public relations campaign waged by the Sussexes aimed at restoring the California-based couple to the affections of the British public. It is worrying King Charles has been drawn into this, aided by some key figures of the Establishment behind the scenes.

Since last week, I have heard claims senior Government figures are also keen for Harry and Meghan to reconcile with the Royal Family. Many on the Left hailed the mixed-race American actress as a symbol of change in the Monarchy when she married Harry in 2018 – and still yearn for her return. While they may be happy to ignore the deeply hurtful claims she has made about Princess Catherine and others, I don’t believe there should be any reconciliation unless it is accompanied by genuine apologies from the Sussexes for the damage they have done.

[From The Daily Mail]

“…Leading the duke down the dangerous path once taken by his late mother, Princess Diana, who became increasingly convinced that ‘men in grey suits’ were to blame for her difficulties…” To quote Nirvana, “Just because you’re paranoid, don’t mean they’re not after you.” Yet another Daily Mail columnist invoking the late Princess Diana to suggest that if Harry continues to wage a war against the men in grey, he’ll end up like his paranoid mother. If the men in grey are not pulling the strings, why are they working so hard to gaslight Harry and threaten his life?

As for this: “I have heard claims senior Government figures are also keen for Harry and Meghan to reconcile with the Royal Family. Many on the Left… still yearn for her return.” LMAO. I mean, I wouldn’t be surprised if there were some Labour figures who were more pro-Sussex than many of the Tories prancing through the British government in the past fifteen years. You also have to remember, there was a revolving door between Downing Street and Kensington Palace in particular – the Tory elders have taken a special interest in grooming William to be the compromised moron king of their dreams. That being said, remember when Boris Johnson revealed that he really liked the Sussexes and he knew they were great for the monarchy’s future and he apparently begged Harry to stay? I truly wonder whether the Starmer government has pushed the palace to soften on Harry this year.
