I don't know who James Corden is?
Edited to say, I googled him & you can keep him too.
He played a character called "Smiffy" in Gavin & Stacey. Now he's a chat show host in LA.

Just know that if you find a skiff washed up on your western shores with Harry, Meghan, and James Corden in it, it was probably me who shoved them off

Harry and pregnant Meghan hit back and said: “We can all live a life of service‘.

(Actually, l think it’s being described as a ‘rebuke’ rather than a ‘retort’.)
I don't get it. What is she saying exactly?

I think Meghan and Harry may be referring to this quote.....

“As we lose ourselves in the service of others, we discover our own lives and our own happiness.”

Consider it? He'd be at it like a rat up a drainpipe with Me-again pushing him from behind or more probably dragging him behind her.

Perish the thought, TAT!

That's quote I am unfamiliar with, but I will tuck it away for consideration and sharing. Thank you for that!

Re: Line of Succession

God forbid, but if ever tragic circumstances led to Harry being appointed then it would surely initiate a constitutional crisis and the end of the monarchy.

Re: Line of Succession

I didn’t realise until l looked that little Archie is 7th in succession.

My mind has just gone a bit haywire... fast forward to the year approx 2040.. less than six deaths occur and Meghan and Archie refuse to comment!!
