The Invictus Games were the focus of the royal tour itinerary this weekend. On Monday, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle visited Fraser Island.As previously announced, they travelled there together and Royal Meghan then went to rest, rejoining Harry later in the day.

As I wrotelast week, Meghan’s pretty much wearing the same clothes over and over again. There’s not much variation to the shapes, the colours.It’s a uniform. Because, perhaps, the clothes don’t have to be the story. The baby is the story. And …well…

I told you. I told you on Friday that where Princess Kate was never a belly-cupper, not through three pregnancies, Royal Meghanwould totally be a belly-cupper. OF COURSE she’s a belly-cupper. At one point today I was actually afraid that we’d see a royal double belly-cup whenHarryandMeghanwere walking along the dock and stopped to gaze out onto the water:

With the sun high in the sky and a warm breeze soothing their skin, it was the perfect karaoke video moment. You know. You’ve seen the visual many times before. As she lovingly caresses the life growing inside of her, he comes up from behind and puts his hand on hers, marking the spot where they created one whole from two parts.

Sorry. I just passed out from all the emotion. And relief. Because somehow Harry resisted the urge to turn the moment into a Hallmark card. Maybe he’s saving it for the conclusion of their trip, like fireworks that go off at the end of a party to celebrate the undeniable success of the tour. And it has been an undeniable success. Which is the subject of Tom Sykes’slatest piece for The Daily Beast- 苏塞克斯人的成功对其他皇室成员意味着什么?特别是剑桥,威廉和凯特,因为正如汤姆·阿克利(Tom Archly)所指出的那样,“遮蔽约克并不重要”。1zplay这是指哈利和梅根的怀孕宣布和尤金妮公主的婚礼的时机。但是随后汤姆继续说:“遮蔽约克并不重要”时,将黯然失色的剑桥实际上可能很重要。1zplay

Prince William, in private, reportedly has a temper. Prince William, in private, is also supposedly more like his father than we think in that he doesn’t like being overshadowed. Diana overshadowed Charles. Which is why some royal insiders believe thatKatehas intentionally always made sure to NOT be too sparkly so as to not overshadow her husband.

几个月前,有报道称,威廉was unhappy when Kensington Palace scheduled an event for him and Harry and Meghanon the same day, resulting in shared coverage and maybe slightly more coverage for the then-engaged couple. The crowds that Harry and Meghan are drawing on this tour so far are said to be as big, if not bigger, than the crowds for the Cambridges – with Big G – a few years ago. And that’s great news for the monarchy in general. But… as Tom Sykes concludes:

What remains to be seen is how serenely William and Kate will cope with Harry and Meghan’s soaring profile, if, as seems entirely likely, the all-star Sussexes continue to claim a larger slice of global and domestic attention than the decidedly drab Cambridges.

Maybe what we’ll see is much more engagement from the Cambridges. Maybe what we’ll see is both the Cambridges taking their game to the next level. Maybe in 2019, they won’t be so “drab” after all? Royal Boy Sh-t. It’s the best sh-t!
