Princess Beatrice, Princess Eugenie get with an incredibly hard
Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie have just hit a roadblock with an ‘incredibly hard’ time overwhelming them, an expert fears.
The expert in question is former BBC royal correspondent Jennie Bond.
She spoke to The Mirror about everything and said, “As for [Princesses] Beatrice and Eugenie, anyone with a heart must surely feel sorry for them.”
Because “It seems they have had to witness their parents’ public humiliation time and again. And that must be incredibly hard when you love someone.”
She also didn’t end there and instead added a few loving anecdotes about the Duchess of York as a mother and said, “There’s no doubt that Sarah has been a brilliant mother to her girls, and they will protect her and love her through thick and thin. And that’s just as well, because this really is worse than anything Sarah has been through before. And I fear there is more to come.”
For those unversed, the fallout relates to her leaked email correspondence with the convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.
The email contents released by the Mail on Sunday show her apologizing to the fancier. Later on her spokesperson claimed she had to apologize because of ongoing threats of lawsuits.
The actual email is as follows;
“I know you feel hellaciously let down by me. And I must humbly apologise to you and your heart for that.”
“You have always been a steadfast, generous and supreme friend to me and my family. I am apologising to you today for not replying to your email or reaching out to you. I was bedridden with fear. I was paralysed.”
“I was advised, in no uncertain terms, to have nothing to do with you and to not speak or email you. And if I did – I would cause more problems to you, the Duke and myself. I was broken and lost.”
“So please understand. I didn’t want to hurt Andrew one more time. I was in overriding fear. I am sorry.”
As a result she’s since been kicked off three charities almost, the Teenage Cancer Trust, Children’s Literacy Charity, The National Foundation For Retired Service Animals and the British Heart Foundation.
Drake has drawn attention on social media after liking a comment aimed at ex Serena Williams.
The rapper, 39, posted tennis-themed photos with Sexyy Red on November 17, captioned, “I said tennis lesson she said where’s the bracelet or the necklace.”
Under the post, one user commented, “Serena Williams upgrade,” accompanied by two fire emojis. Drake appeared to approve by liking the comment, which led another user to call him “messy for liking” it.
The interaction comes months after Williams, 44, told Time her cameo in Kendrick Lamar’s Super Bowl halftime show was “absolutely not” a dig at Drake.
Williams was spotted dancing during Lamar’s performance of Not Like Us, a song widely interpreted as a diss track aimed at the rapper.
She insisted her appearance was a nod to her 2012 London Olympics celebration and added she “would never” mock her ex.
Williams described her relationship with Drake as long-standing and said she has “never had negative feelings towards him.” Drake previously referenced her in his 2013 song Worst Behavior.
Australians younger than 16 will be removed from Facebook and Instagram on December 4, tech giant Meta said Thursday, as Canberra prepares to enforce sweeping laws banning teens from social media.
From December 10, Australia will force social media platforms, including Facebook, Instagram and TikTok, to remove users under the age of 16 or face hefty fines.
Meta said that it would start removing teenagers from its platforms ahead of the ban coming into force.
“From today, Meta will be notifying Australian users it understands to be aged 13-15 that they will lose access to Instagram, Threads and Facebook,” Meta said in a statement.
“Meta will begin blocking new under-16 accounts and revoking existing access from 4 December, expecting to remove all known under-16s by 10 December.”
There are around 350,000 Instagram users aged between 13-15 in Australia and around 150,000 Facebook accounts, according to government figures.
Meta has started warning impacted users that they will soon be locked out.
“Soon, you’ll no longer be able to use Facebook and your profile won’t be visible to you or others,” reads a message sent to impacted users.
“When you turn 16, we’ll let you know that you can start using Facebook again.”
Teenagers will be able to access their accounts “exactly as you left it” once they turn 16, Meta told them.
Hefty fines
Accounts that were flagged by mistake could verify their age using a “video selfie” or by providing government-issued ID.
Social media companies have previously described the laws as “vague”, “problematic” and “rushed”.
Meta again voiced its concerns on Thursday.
“We share the Australian Government’s goal of creating safe, age-appropriate online experiences, but cutting teens off from their friends and communities isn’t the answer.”
There is keen interest in whether Australia’s sweeping restrictions can work as regulators around the globe wrestle with the dangers of social media.
New Zealand’s Prime Minister, Christopher Luxon, will introduce a similar bill to restrict children’s social media use.
And the Dutch government advised parents this year to forbid children under 15 from using social media apps like TikTok and Snapchat.
Social media companies caught flouting the laws will face fines of up to Aus$49.5 million (US$32 million).
On paper, the ban is one of the strictest in the world.
But some experts are concerned that the law will be merely symbolic because of the difficulty in implementing and policing online age verification.
Meghan Markle is opening up about making mistakes as she creates her own lifestyle brand.
The Duchess of Sussex, who sat with Harper’s Bazaar on their latest cover for December, spoke about little setbacks as she works on ‘As Ever.’
“I can give myself the same grace as a founder,” she notes. “There’s no such thing as perfect. I, too, get to make mistakes… There’s also not a lot of fun in trying to be perfect. So why try to do that if you want to have fun?”
“My office is right by the kitchen, and I love that I can work from home. It’s a great luxury,” she added, before noting how her kids fill up a large part of her day.
Prince Harry left the Royal Family back in 2020 alongside wife Meghan Markle and son, Prince Archie. The couple later accused the Royal Family of showcasing racism towards their son and publicly shared their grievances on television. Harry and Meghan now live in California, where they also welcomed their daughter, Princess Lilibet.
