BBC reports that Prince William has pulled out of attending Greek funeral for personal reasons… any ideas?

Really, you surprise me MOnica newsreaders certainly wouldn’t agree , perhaps you don’t listen when they speak of
happenings Wales

There is no definitive spelling for any name. Parents choose the name and spelling that takes their fancy. There may be common spellings or traditional spellings. But nothing definitive.

Yes it does appear that way doesn’t it.

Yes, dreadful - like people spelling Meghan incorrectly…..
Actually, Meghan spells her name incorrectly. Not her fault, of course, it was her parents.
It's Megan, a shortened form of Margaret.

But, like many people overseas, they like old Celtic names but then misspell them.

Neeve anyone?

Thank you Callistemon

Probably off visiting Rose like father like son

Could be.
But I think Katherine is more determined than Diana. She worked hard to get him. She'll probably turn a blind eye and think of the crown.

You could at least bother to spell her name correctly. If you’re sufficiently interested to want to bitch about her, you must have read it often enough.

And over on the dark side (mumsnet) 💖

Perhaps that's where some get their salacious gossip from.

Honestly, I'm surprised MN and GN have not been sued yet. Harry is missing a trick there.

This is so funny! We've gone from Harry to Charles, Diana, Camilla, Dodi, Hewitt, Catherine, Rose someone, several others along the way, and now Scooby Doo! 🐕

Oh, Scobie is such a figure of fun, don't you think 😂

Who is Rose,what have I missed, again?

She's Rose Hanbury.Close friend of William. Omid Scobie says they were not having an affair but I believe he isn't a reliable witness.

Actually, Rose Hanbury is a close friend of Catherine. Rose and her husband are friends with Catherine and William.

Well I know who Rose is as do the people who told me. It’s widely known and discussed in the real world.

crazyH Sun 03-Mar-24 19:06:55

I was also wondering who ‘Rose’ was - now I know 😂

Joseann Sun 03-Mar-24 18:48:00

Or is that the other thread? I'm a bit lost.

Being an unreliable witness does not mean that the person concerned is wrong all the time - that would make them a reliable witness - reliably wrong, so on this occasion Omid Scobie could be right.

On the other hand he could be wrong about this but right about other things couldn't he?

Someone claimed they were seen in a restaurant together,William gave her a beautiful present, no doubt the same person who last week saw the Princess of Wales wandering around a psychiatric hospital in London
