King Charles Blunder Triggers Fresh Concern, WHO Is In Charge At The Palace?

British royal family news divulges that PR is going from bad to worse one day after the media smacked down the palace for posting an altered pic of Princess Catherine.

Today could have brought redemption if not for the terrible YouTube blunder with King Charles’ Commonwealth Day celebration.

The monarch is undergoing cancer treatment and was not at today’s Commonwealth Day service at Westminster Abbey in London.

His taped speech was played for the congregation, which included Queen Camilla, Prince William, other royal family members, and dignitaries. Too bad the posted speech ended up in the wrong place at the wrong time.

Royal News – Charles PR Blunder

Now all anyone can talk about is how utterly decrepit the palace PR machine is, and at the worst time possible, when Kate and Charles are sidelined due to medical issues.

According to People “A video of his speech was then shared on YouTube, but Gert’s Royals noted on X (formerly Twitter) that the royal family’s official social media accounts shared the wrong link. Instead of the royals’ official YouTube channel, the speech was linked to the personal YouTube account of the Palace’s Head of Digital Engagement, Emma Goodey.” Jiminy.

Royal News – What Is The Problem At The Palace?

Eventually the post was replaced with the correct link and the video removed from Goodey’s page. Any other time this minor mistake would have been laughed off.

Right now the stakes are high with suspicion, conspiracy theories, and missing royals (with missing digits—Google Catherine’s Mother’s Day photo) fueling the rumor mill.

Royal Family News – Princess Catherine Photo Fail

King Charles’ sincere speech was delivered to 56 Commonwealth nation reps gathered in London. Charles holds sovereign status in 14 of these nations, including Canada, Australia and New Zealand.

Many of the national leaders have made noises about ditching the archaic Commonwealth, and this latest stumble gives them more ammo.

King Charles said in the video “I have been most deeply touched by your wonderfully kind and thoughtful good wishes for my health and, in return, can only continue to serve you, to the best of my ability, throughout the Commonwealth.”

The only problem is that his troubled health, and the chaotic behind the scenes reality at the palace, do nothing to bolster MIA Charles’ optimistic chatter.

What do you think of the state of the monarchy today, royal fans?

    Meghan trying to look like American Royalty? Sorry, I thought that the USA was a republic! Oh well, everything is possible in la la land! So now Megs is an expert on fine dining,fine tableware, fine foods, oops, jam is fine food? So she is going to educate the masses on how to eat, what to eat, and how to use fine linen and cutlery? That women has no idea how much she is laughed at? Meghan, fine dining is not sitting with your elbow on a table and a fork in your hand as we have all seen you ! For the Love of God Meg, have you really no idea how ridiculously stupid this idea is? Also, where can we find a Rivera Orchard? Is the Rivera not it the South of France? Meg this is a hilarious idea, can you imagine the blue bloods watching and laughing at your feeble attempt to look haughty, and teach people how to eat, what to eat, and what to eat off? Meg, you are suffering from a well know real psychiatric condition, believing you are a blue blood! No one will take lessons from you, you do not know how to use cutlery! Harry had to teach you! Stabbing a fork into food is not socially acceptable ! Talk about making money from you fleeting association with Harry’s family does not make you an expert on anything, other than being a really bad impersonator of them ! You just beg to be mocked!

    Catherine , Princess of Wales released a photograph for Mothers Day, of herself with her children, the photo was doctored as she attempted to tidy it up! She did not work on her face but did attempt to tidy up the grouping! Her effort was dismal, and the press noticed the errors! It was a freaking photo, not a forged document! She admitted that she worked on the picture and apologised for tampering with it! What harm was done? Now she is accused of all sorts of things! What does it matter? It is a photo her with her children! She posted it for Mother’s Day! She did not forge a secret document! The press are having a field day,with their holier than thy attitude! I do believe that she is being bullied , harassed and abused! Give her a break, she is recovering from surgery and those who are making a mountain out of a mole hill, are pathetic and disgusting! It is not a crime, she broke no laws , she tried to tidy up a photo and it was unsuccessful! Leave her alone! She admitted to the retouching immediately ! Catherine, Princess of Wales is an absolutely fantastic lady, she is recovering from surgery and should be left to recuperate in peace! The behaviour of the press is abysmal! She has not harmed anyone! Stop being so sanctimonious and get a life!
