👑ROYAL SECRETS👑 Amazing Tales! By VALET To Prince Charles, Stephen Barry

[@ynys_mon6928]

It’s such a relief to have some Royal gossip that doesn’t involved H&M. More please!

[@ByHookorbyNeedles]

I think a light-hearted book on the more amusing occurrences behind the scenes would be a perfect piece to the more hard hitting, deep dives we've been treated with recently.

[@jeanettesantarelli1795]

Agreed

[@KezWills-vp8rj]

Absolutely Agree

[@helenlesley5456]

Yes !…keep it coming what a relief to hear some funny stories other then the other two tossers H&M 😊

[@flyonthewall8122]

​@@helenlesley5456 Agreed!

[@stephanieredden8861]

Same here.

[@brendastajkowski502]

In some respects I feel sorry for the Royals. Imagine living a life where every moment of every hour of every day was orchestrated and micromanaged. It didn't allow for bad hair days or under the weather days. I would find that a bit difficult day after day for all of my life. That must have been why Balmoral was/is so important to them.

[@charlenebowden4511]

@@brendastajkowski502 and the Royal Yacht. I think they really loved it. I quite agree with you.

[@lisalivingston6473]

@brendastajkowski502 I agree with you. It's also one of the reasons why the Audrey Hepburn film, "Roman Holiday", is so endearing to me!

[@helenlesley5456]

@@lisalivingston6473 … Very good point… favourite classics… they date… so much talent came out of the early Hollywood days…😊

[@fibanocci314]

I've said something like that before. I don't think I could be convinced to marry into that family for love nor money.

[@helenlesley5456]

Should have said … they never date… all those old movies are fantastic

[@gingercat2879]

i sent lady Susan a few jams i ordered from the royal collection shop when she endured that unfair criticism and a few months later i got a wonderful thank you letter from one of the most senior ladies in waiting to the late queen on letterhead. was very exciting.

[@lisalivingston6473]

@gingercat2879 Great story! It's particularly funny considering the jam scammer in residence in Montecito - LOL! I can imagine your excitement when you received that special "thank you" letter - how wonderful!

[@gingercat2879]

@@lisalivingston6473 i know!! its so ironic isnt it! it was the only way i could think of showing support to poor lady susan who was so outrageously wronged. i think William is wonderful but he was very very wrong to behave that way on this occasion.

[@Cynthia-nm6tg]

@@gingercat2879/ Thank You for sending her a gift !!!

[@lisalivingston6473]

@@gingercat2879 I agree. I think Prince William acted impulsively, but in his defense, he was still contending with the "racist royal family" rumors that the Sussexes planted. That was so sweet of you to support Lady Susan like that. I've always believed that you reap what you sow, and I suspect that history will not be kind to the" Montecito grifters".

​@@thevintagereadFantastic‼️🌹 Another to consider for the future could be Lady Glennconnor's books. This would be such a treat 🫶😍

[@judywilliamson2068]

Both myself and my oldest brother have liver damage. Doctors are always telling us to, “stop drinking!” We are always telling the doctors “don’t drink, never drank!” of course they don’t believe us! So damage can be caused by other things other than drinking. In my case, I found out that it was caused from a surgery I had when I was in my early 20s. So, possibly Prince Philip did not drink as much as one might think.

[@sharonmcloughlin]

My lungs are shot mist like emphysema. I have never smoked. Im 58.

[@thevintageread]

Unfortunately it is well documented that he was a hard drinker in his youth, however most were!

[@suemcgregor9248]

​@@thevintageread a lot of ex-servicemen came home from WWll and hit the bottle, Prince Philip wasn't alone in that regard

[@loisdefelici3487]

Love listening to these stories! Please keep it up❤

[@vericarauza5830]

I enjoyed that thank you. Would love some more. It actually makes you think about the RF, and the life they lead is not necessary an easy life. Every move they make, every thing they say and do is under the microscope. They have absolutely no privacy. I would hate that kind of life, that the RF can live like that really makes me admire them even more.

[@fibanocci314]

I can't imagine having staff everywhere, let alone press constantly trying to get information.

[@RosieES8288]

Shauna this is great and a giggle

[@sjordan7085]

You are in deed a charming host Shauna. However, the more I learn about the monarchy, the greater the need to end the monarchy now. One cannot help but think of all the elderly pensioners in the UK who die of cold every winter, and likely in the heat of summer, unable to afford to both eat and heat/cool their homes, while the monarchy lives a life of luxury increasing their wealth, and attempting to look useful by snipping a few ribbons. Oh, and arranging a fancy State Funeral to boot! There is a reason other countries have tossed their royals.

[@PS_testing321...]

I think with the Queen and the Palace gossip, that was traditionally what a Palace court was like. Lady Susan would probably be sent forth to Charles by the Queen to communicate with him for her. Oh no! Princess Anne got fewer sausages, as well!!! I would love to hear more of this book.

[@britsbritts]

Definitely would like to hear more from this book. It’s interesting.

[@elaineduncanson1474]

I love the gossipy tales. All of us wonder what life is really like in the palaces. These glimpses are enlightening and enjoyable. The royals are human beings who live under many constraints. It is satisfying to see the more human side of each of them. I can imagine the feelings of those who saw the Queen twisting her wedding ring and were relieved when she rode off leaving Reagan with his fans.

Love all your book reviews and the 'sparky snippets'. You are balanced, well informed, witty & an excellent story teller. As regards the amusing anecdote you told about the Duke of Gloucester, I think this was the present duke's father, who was the late Queen's uncle, not her cousin, tho' I may have misunderstood your comment, Thank you for all your research., long may it continue!.

How the rearing of the royal children has evolved! And don't you figure Ann's less than tender treatment by staff was a major factor in her declining royal titles for her 2 children? Better to be without titles, than to be at the mercy of unsympathetic staff.

[@PS_testing321...]

Princess Anne had staff, but possibly paid more attention to her children.
