"I had to check with my wife and the British Government to make sure it was OK." Oh Harry, he actually said that out loud.

Meghan and Harry begin fifth day apart as Duke delays trip home to US

Story by Dorothy Reddin, GB News

Prince Harry has extended his visit to Ukraine, leaving him and Meghan Markle spending a fifth day apart as his humanitarian work continues.

The Duke of Sussex flew into the UK on Monday before travelling on to Kyiv after an invitation from the Ukrainian Government.

Harry, 40, has not confirmed when he will return to California, where Meghan remains with their children, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet, meaning the couple are now apart for a fifth consecutive day.

The father-of-two said he wants to do "everything possible" to help thousands of military personnel seriously injured in the three-year war with Russia.

Accompanied by a team from his Invictus Games Foundation, Harry is announcing new projects to support the rehabilitation of wounded veterans and to expand sport-based recovery programmes across the country.

Ukraine’s Government estimates that about 130,000 people have been left with permanent disabilities since the conflict began, making rehabilitation a key national priority.

Speaking to the Guardian on an overnight train to the capital, Harry said: "We cannot stop the war but what we can do is do everything we can to help the recovery process. We can continue to humanise the people involved in this war and what they are going through.

"We have to keep it in the forefront of people’s minds. I hope this trip will help to bring it home to people because it’s easy to become desensitized to what has been going on."

The Duke explained that the visit was sparked by a chance meeting in New York with Olga Rudnieva, founder of the Superhumans Trauma Centre in Lviv, which treats wounded amputees.

He recalled: "I bumped into Olga in New York. It was a chance meeting, and I asked her what I could do to help. She said, 'The biggest impact you have is coming to Kyiv.'

"I had to check with my wife and the British Government to make sure it was OK. Then the official invitation came.

"In Lviv, you don’t see much of the war. It is so far west. This is the first time we will see the real destruction of the war."

Ukraine first entered the Invictus Games in 2017, but its involvement has taken on a new urgency since Russia’s invasion.

The competition, which Harry founded in 2014, provides an international sporting arena for wounded veterans. Reflecting on the Ukrainian team’s appearance at the 2022 games in The Hague, Harry said: "It was remarkable. Every one of the participants had a journey to get to those games, but nobody from any of the other competing nations was going back to war.

"That is why the Ukrainians stood out. Everyone felt an immense connection to them. Some of the competitors were being pulled off the battlefield and were going back to the battlefield. It means so much to us, because it means so much to them."

While in Kyiv, Harry is scheduled to meet Ukrainian Prime Minister Yulia Svyrydenko and spend time with 200 veterans at the National Museum of the History of Ukraine in the Second World War. The Invictus Games Foundation has also been supplying sports equipment and expanding local recovery programmes.

From someone who works in the entertainment industry:

"One colleague in particular, who has worked in the industry for 25+ years and has a stellar reputation in getting along with everyone (or at the very least, being able to find common ground), has told me he’s “never met anyone like that” and if he were to cross paths with her again, on any another project, he would opt out rather than sign on. When she got with Harry, my colleague said H didn’t know what he was in for.

Not naturally warm': Hollywood star reveals awkward Meghan Markle encounter

Australian actress Rebel Wilson says Meghan Markle wasn’t “as cool” as Prince Harry when she met the couple in the US, claiming the Duchess of Sussex wasn’t “naturally warm”.

She knew what she was doing!! Consequently, each time she's chauffeured around a city, the ILBW will cover up her cruelty with NEW video footage (AS IF!!), only to remind us that she is indeed-- The Deceitful Duchess

Meghan Markle truly believes she was put on this earth to tell us what we're doing wrong and how SHE has all the correct answers. As a wise woman once said, "...if Meghan Markle's doing it, then I'm doing the opposite. "-GRITS Gal

Another rebrand for Meghan Markle with her very very very very very very good author/college friend who she re-friended via Instagram. Instagram is a platform she hasn't used since Boomerang was a thing. 🤔

Observations from Attendees in the Saint Reddit Community:

Oh my God. Went in just in time to hear Meghan offer her parenting spiel about asking a child to “tidy” up something, the child saying, “But that’s not my mess.” And Meghan countering, “Yeah but it’s your home.” She paused afterwards and the audience stayed dead silent. She immediately did that weird glare that she does and I got out of there. Not tonight Satan. Those kids must be terrified of her. Also her kids are way too young for those kinds of retorts to be effective. Moron.

That’s 3 minutes of my life I’m never getting back. Courtney just answered a question about continuing on with family traditions that her children cherish and not surprisingly, Megs was dead silent during that part. But then Megs had to chime in with how difficult it can be to make tea for 6-8 people so she suggest having lots of self-serve options on the stove. Um, Meghan, your OWN COMPANY SELLS TEA!!!!

Plus she dragged out the old chestnut of how meeting people at the door barefoot helps put people at ease which is a) not true when your feet are as gnarly as hers are and b) a dig at William and Catherine because we know how stuffy and uptight they are.

Her whole take on hosting seemed to be very lazy, encouraging guests to help themselves to food and drink right from the stove.

There was also a comment about ‘you know how much I love fragrance” which I hope to god isn’t foreshadowing her launching a perfume. It’s a cheap way to get into the beauty sector, but there’s nothing about MM that makes me think I want to smell anything like she does 🤮

Author Courtney Adamo and Meghan Duchess of Sussex Compare Notes on Creating a Home Filled With Joy."

Have only been watching for a few minutes, but the actual author has to fight to get a word in. Courtney has five kids between 8 and 20, so has actually done a lot of parenting.

Word salad, check! SO MUCH word salad. "The learning". "Anchors to". "What does that look like?". Etc., etc.

Anecdotes about Lili, who is of course "a strong personality", check.

Bare arms, check.

Black dress exposing chest and back, check.

Tight bun, check.

I,I,I and me, me, me, check.

Okay, the Q&A has started, and the moderator has handed it over to Courtney. Good. Courtney has teenagers, so she is getting questions on that.

After watching for 45 minutes, what is most striking is how natural the moderator is when speaking, and so is Courtney, in contrast to Meghan who is more performative and uses a higher tone in her voice when she wants to make a point.

Here's Courtney. She offers online courses on "Nurture", "Tweens and Teens" and "At Home With Kids" for $150 a pop, and has a weekly newsletter in addition to her book and ebook

She really exposed her lies in this.

Also why are people still giving this Charlatan a platform? Why?!!!! Has Saint Meh meh not figured out by now that what makes her unlikeable is her pretending she lives a perfect life and is joyous all the time, when we, who have eyes, see that all is not well? That maybe just maybe, if she acknowledged some stress in her otherwise perfection of a life, that she will be more palatable? Instead she continues to sell a pretend perfect facade that has visible cracks.

‘Joy’ is when she revels in the misfortune of others. A sick pleasure.

Well, you had Marie Kondo and her “this /sparks/does not spark/ joy” line, and before that the “Joy of Cooking” and the “Joy of Sex.” These lifestyle people are all clones of each other, all trying to make a buck off the same old mundane things that their analytics tell them will prompt a large segment of consumers to part with their money."... Compare Notes on Creating a Home Filled With Joy."

No thanks.

Recalling that dinner via Emma, Meghan is simply not this comfortable or showy around beautiful, wealthy Black women. They are not intimidated and she hates it.  I'm dumbfounded by Black female defenders. She doesn't give a rat's arse about the Community. We have yet to see her with ONE Black family member; Dorian doesn't count. Why can't those ignorant defenders see the obvious? As a Black woman, this boggles the mind.

Bah that’s Markle. Gotta give it her own spin and rename a comfort blanket or ‘blanky.’ Like how she says ‘learnings ‘ instead of ‘learned.’

She’s so effing weird!

Just had a glance at X. Some videos there. The poor author couldn’t get a word in sideways

So, another claimed close friend of Meghan not invited to the wedding. How close could they be when Meghan could invite a whole cathedral of total strangers but not her claimed close friends.

Does she show her feet? I feel like we haven’t seen her feet in a while.

In the US - SPRING BREAK LASTS ONE WEEK!! You did not “backpack France in under 7 days!!

Courtney Adamo is Madame's "longtime friend and sorority sister" from Northwestern. "We backpacked France one spring break."

Spring Break lasts one week. How much of France can you backpack in a week? I guess she wasn't doing it on foot...I couldn't even back pack the UK in a week. Can take fricking hours just to commute to work. Another load of BS from madam.

No more than three full days on a beach or a yacht in the South of France. Probably the latter to get some pocket money … the rest is taken up travelling to and fro.

Oh finally, someone from Northwestern. She’s really pulling out the stops“Creating a Home Filled with Joy” !!!?? Take me to the foot of our stairs and find me a glassy of sherry, what utter rot. The force of the narcissistic delusion overload is of near nuclear proportions.

Wouldn't watch it  if you paid me 

No prizes for guessing who came up with the title for that gabfest. What’s Mehgan’s obsession with joy?

Meredith said, "Everyone knows you as a bitter complainer. We need to turn that around. Now you're all about joy."

I wonder if Scott Rouse will analyse this one? And what is it that makes her so unlikeable? Is it that, as you say, we can see all is not well but she adamantly says otherwise? She's the verbal and visual equivalent of nails on board at these presentations.

If I remember correctly, body language expert Scott Rouse said a higher tone indicates stress and deception. He used Meh-meh’s screechy ‘Yes’ as an example when Jamie Lima asked her if she was gonna be married to Foxy Hawwy forever.

What else is expected of a not only mentally shallow, but hollow and, devoid of any form of talent person.

Haven proven with numerous hand scrawled receipts to not being able to front line, talk less of host anything of note, the Saint of Desperate Grifting and Lying, like a Tick sucks up paid / lobbied for Awards, in her behind the scenes crawls from one hosted event to another, in her bid to achieve relevance.

Her hail Mary being that she in her delusional fogged mind thinks she is competing for relevance with the Princess Catherine, the Princess of Wales.

To borrow from my vibrant 15 year old mixed race niece, "It, truly sucks to be Meghan Markle"

This whole thing sounds painful.

Isn’t this the same as that bookstore she once visited?

That one time when Oprah made her brain do a factory reset.

Thanks for the recap. Sounds like I'd rather watch paint dry.

Well, this sounds truly insufferable. Thanks for taking one for the team.

Boy, isn’t Duchess Dumbarton doing a media and PR blitz that continues to be meaningless, insignificant, boring, and insufferable. What a waste of time and effort all around.

She is just angering people on her continued fake joy when everybody knows her world is falling apart with the end of her NF show, As Ever flop, unhappy marriage, and the greatest of all: the threat of the removal of her beloved titles. She is tone deaf to the general mood about the BRF (caused by the Yorks’ I might add).

Ahh, so that’s why they’re “long time friends”, they were both members of the same mostly-white sorority.

Here is the backpacking in France clapback.

How much backpacking can one do one Spring Break?

I, I'm, I've, me, my, mine... almost never do words pass her lips without referencing herself.

It must be exhausting to be around.

The hag is so boring.

It’s always funny how these “longtime friends” pop up when she is getting blasted and then promptly disappears into the ether.

I’ll say it again: Ruby Franke 2.0

Was reading comments on other sites and Courtney does come in for criticism. But to be fair I've looked at her sub stack and she dosn't rub me up the wrong way like madam and seems to genuinely love her kids and family. She lives in Australia and has lived in London previously. She appears to be quite successful so not sure why she needed to pair up with Madam.

They backpacked France together in one spring break!? My @ss they did.

Either the expressions when they drink the wine or Courtney saying, "No thank you" when offered the swill.

Her numbers are in the toilet, keep it that way.

Take a 2 WEEK break from creating content about her failed podcast. Don't feed the Spotify/Apple Charts by listening &/or downloading! Don't feed her SEO by "chatting" via social media or in YouTube videos:

🚫 No hate listening

🚫 No downloads

✔ Ignore it

This is her last ditch effort to climb the charts while also attaching herself to the social media (& online mob) of a bonafide celebrity brand. If you want to learn about the guest, YouTube has a plethora of videos from her recent book tour and past videos about her fashion lines.

In the promo, we heard that the ILBW is nurturing a southern addition to her family of multiple personalities. Personally speaking as a true southern gal, hearing "y'all" come out of her valley girl mouth is an insult and another sign of anxiety and desperation. I imagine the many men (who dodged a bullet when she discarded them) breathing a collective sigh of relief each time someone in their group text shares the latest reason for them to drop to their knees and thank G-d for shielding them from a lifetime of hell on earth.
