In my opinion, Will and Kate are following in Harry and Meghan’s footsteps without experiencing similar outrage from the public. Let’s not forget that Harry and Meghan announced the birth of their son directly on instagram and were crucified for this by traditionalists. They used instagram once again to announce their desire to step back from royal duties, and once again they were brutally crucified, not just for their intention, but for bypassing traditional media outlets.
What do you mean, "just fine" about Workshy Willie and the world's laziest professional patient? I've had cancer, so forgive me, but I can say that, as Kate has not said one verifiable word about her long absence and alleged treatment - image the good she could have done for all of us cancer survivors had she had the bother to speak the truth about detection and her actual treatment. Nor has she bothered to thank the medical staff who would have been tending to her for all these months. (If Charles can be out there working during his treatment, at his age, why couldn't Kate?) So.... how does she actually contribute to the Royals? Have you forgotten all the bogus images she and her equally lazy hubby posted - what a con! Do you honestly think that's "just fine?" As for H&M, I daresay a woman of your intelligence and wonderful writing talent knows full well the impact of the ugliest racism on Meghan and the UK media's collusion with Kensington Palace to bring her down. Thank goodness she and Harry got out - they've done more good for the world in a scant few years than W&K have done in their lifetimes.
Such a screwed view and factually wrong but clearly you don't like The Prince and Princess of Wales.
Regarding Catherines cancer... just because you're a once upon a time cancer patient doesn't mean that you have any idea what her treatment should be or whether she should be working.
King Geroge V1 was out of commission for a year and subsequently passed away soon after. I am EXTREMELY relieved that Catherines using a sensible approach to returning to her duties. 👑 🇬🇧 👑
I'm fascinated by Eugenie's public career and her public posts, too! Her work with The Anti-Slavery Collective is not just a gala or a step & repeat - there is a two-season podcast she hosts with the co-founder, too. First, she has a great voice for podcasting. She could be an audiobook narrator.
Second, it's extremely well done, including episodes with the person who wrote the human trafficking/anti-slavery legislation for the crown, because there wasn't precedence that was clear and applicable enough to the cases that crown prosecutors were seeing. Eugenie seems adept at doing things that are interesting and then sharing enough of herself to add "royal watcher" attention to what she's doing. (And you'll have a hard time convincing me that the Collective isn't some way in conversation with her father's alleged crimes and behavior.)
This newsletter was very interesting and engaging. I'm also intrigued by the way Eugenie and other members of that generation are finding new ways to be public figures and private citizens at the same time.
Thank you, Amanda. I (like most of us) have read so much commentary about this idea of public/personal and your newsletter stands out - your analysis and thoughts are clear, rational and add to our understanding.

Thoughtful piece. The York sisters have done a good job of having one foot in and one foot out, so to speak.
