Well, perhaps a BIT biased in favour of Monarchy. But not blinkered. Think of your own siblings .. love 'em, but you recognise they're not perfect, not like you and me.
Looking at Charles on the church walk that might be sooner than we wish. He was leaning heavily on that umbrella. Like Queen Elizabeth did near the end
Thinking of the time when Prince William saw Rebecca English’s foot was injured. He saw to getting some ice ( frozen peas if I recall) to get Rebecca some relief. He’s got a good relationship ‘ regular people’ and the media. He seems to understand that everyone needs a hand, and if he can help he does. He’s just a nice guy who happens to be the future King of The Commonwealth.
@@willainerosenau6782 Wow, what a way to miss the point being made which was that he is, as she said, 'just a nice guy' who doesn't expect admiration for doing the most basic acts of compassion that anyone would do. The royals who succeed are those with humility who realise being royal just a role, they are not innately 'special' or above others and they keep their feet on the ground unlike those who want to lord it over us, expect the media to be censored in their favour and have acquired reputations for being appalling human beings. William is not one of those and will make an excellent ambassador for the UK.
Happy to be corrected but I remember her sat already with frozen peas on her foot (by on site nurses) and William being very concerned, making it a point to enqire and let her get a quote for her story. ?
@@JennySims-b4w lol... I'm sure H would've abdicated the throne for the woman he loves anyway 😅 and William would've still been the next Prince of Wales.
Loved how William kept a very close eye on Catherine at the Sandringham walkabout, while at the same time keeping the children close and protected, and still engaging wuth the crowd. Really mature caring father and husband. True love.❤
Personally, I prefer "Catherine" or the "Princess of Wales". I find it more respectful, and after all, and let's not forget, it's what the Royals actually prefer.
If William doesn't have a coronation when he becomes King, I actually would be pissed. The British Monarchy is the last monarchy in Europe that still has a coronation ceremony. As much as I agree we are living in different times, but having a coronation is rare. So I hope William does have one.
I’m sure Prince William will have a coronation Prince William really is a prince of the realm and he knows and understands what the people want Richard finds it very difficult to give praise for William. I think he is the mole that talks to Harry
@@mariaziak7387 still hating, I see ! I don’t think HRH Prince Harry is concerned with any kind or title ! You ran him and his family off, but he’s the traitor ? 😳‼️
I’d just be happy that Meghan’s name would not be mentioned anymore after today. The woman had caused too much trouble and upset in the monarchy and the world.
Yes, please. H&M left the RF and use their titles only to make money and cosplay royals for publicity. It is past time to leave them in the past. All of this talk of "reconciliation" is just click bait. Please move on.
If you are hearing a loud noise, know that I am applauding Rebecca for her "reporting" of the Royal Family's daily lives! She comes across as knowledgeable, yet respectful, with a healthy dose of humour. Both she and Richard are well-grounded and trustworthy in the information they impart. Alongside Jo, they offer an entertaining yet informative vista of Royal Family members and their public events. And Richard, your recollection of Prince Phillip, with his assessment of your work as "the fiction department" left me chuckling for several minutes!
Hostess Elvin is lovely in her stunning, sparkling outfit! Great dress and jewelry! Ms. English looks elegant and wonderful also! Mr. Eden looks especially dapper in this session!
This was one of my most favourite episodes! I aboslutely think that Jo, Rebecca, and Richard are the perfect royal panel. Please, please may we have many more of these kinds of episodes in the new year? Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you all!
That's what I was thinking. That man named Richard Kay is obviously well versed, but he drives me nuts because he keeps closing his eyes and fluttering his eyelids like he's having a seizure. This is a bad habit whose name I can't remember. Rebecca and Richard Eden are indeed the perfect panelists along with the beautiful young brunette whose name I don't recall. Best wishes from Texas!
Irish girl here, currently living in South Australia. I look forward to waking every Friday morning to a new episode of Palace Confidential, and I especially love when my Dream Team (Rebecca, Richard E. and Jo) are together. Thank you for a wonderful episode! P.S. Rebecca whatever water you are drinking, you need to bottle it! You are glowing!
I ABSOLUTELY love Rebecca English !! She has become VERY polished and has lost quite a bit of weight, even her hair has become quite polished, in a VERY professional manner. Rebecca is an ABSOLUTE knock-out. My 22 yr old son has such a crush on Miss English !! Mr. Eden is BEYOND perfection. I have followed his writings for MANY years. Both Rebecca and Richard are the ABSOLUTE perfect professionals. BOTH with hearts of gold !! San Antonio, Texas, U.S.A. GOD SAVE THE KING !!
I agree with your comments on Rebecca English. Mr Eden... I'm not so sure about. I'm sorry to say he doesn't always paint the honest Picture of the Royals and leaving out one small Point...can make a big difference in How Our Royals are perceived. Today was the ideal example...discussing the Royals Income he didn't mention that their private Income is Taxable and as we pay tax to the Monarch in effect...HM Tax Office. The Queen could have left it as the Monarch was except ...BUT Charles decided many many years ago... His Income will be taxable and he paid tax...and Then The Queen agreed and does the same... Prince Charles as he was...Greatly Changed the Dutchy of Cornwall and ploughed his income into It and turned it around in monumental ways ...And that's Pretty special !! He really is a world class landlord. Increasing his Income increases the tax he pays...Country Wins. Richard could have said...of course they have paid TAX on this income.
Agree! I like both very much. And yes, Rebecca is even prettier these days. I love her newer hair style. Richard looks quite dapper in his tux on his other channel.
@@MichelleFairbanks-u2h I don’t always agree with what he says, but I don’t think he’s a fan or Meghan Markle at all. He’s made that pretty clear in most of his comments about her. He’s also said that his favorite royal is Catherine.
Thoroughly enjoy listening to Rebecca, Richard and Jo! Thank you for all the videos in 2024 and yes, looking forward to your reports, laughter and all your comments in 2025! 💜🇨🇦
Harry&MM were upset their pictures was not on the desk ? Neither were Princess Anne, Edward&Sophie, I must of missed hearing an announcement of their upcoming books qbout how they weren't included
Absolutely, the Queen had 4 children and 8 grandchildren. The only ones shown are the direct heirs. Harry’s sense of importance is both disturbing and amusing.
Catherine is AMAZING! I remember waking my child up to watch the wedding of W&C like my mother woke us up for C&D. The Princess of Wales is the greatest asset to the BRF.
That's right. Prince William chose not to have an Investiture ceremony as Prince of Wales. But he'll definitely have a Coronation one day (God willing).
Thanks very much for answering my question. The Duchess of Edinburgh been doing fantastic works since day one and she deserves all the love and appreciation. And I must say, Jo Elvin’s ensemble is striking and she looks amazing. Love her dress!
This was an excellent show and probably the most interesting, entertaining and informing to date. Rebecca and Richard did an excellent job in answering all the questions as well!
Princess Dianna may have been referred to as Lady Di or Dianna when she was married to Prince Charles, but she wasn't referred to as Dianna Spencer. Calling Catherine, the Princess of Wales Kate Middleton has got to stop.
I agree. If they can't fit everything in the headline, then why not at least Princess Cate (yes with a C! I can't believe she gets called Kate when her name starts with a C..) that would be the same as Princess Diana. And if they can possibly squeeze in a bit more, Princess Catherine. Do they realise that Princess Cate is actually 1 letter shorter than Kate Middleton? 😮
Well Diana was born a Lady and Catherine a commoner. She came onto the scene as Kate but later asked even her friends to call her Catherine. Neither could be called Princesses directly as Anne, Eugenia, Beatrice and Charlotte are as they weren’t born Princesses. They could only be called by their names followed by the Princess of Wales title e.g Catherine, Princess of Wales.
You're so right. It's intentionally dismissive and disrespectful, and she doesn't deserve to be treated that way. She's been nothing but kind, loyal, hard-working and respectful to the Royal family. Plus, she has given them three children, who she's raised to be kind, well-mannered, well-adjusted and just wonderful. You will never see antics like Harry's from them.
Re: the question about William not having had an investiture as Prince of Wales. Richard’s response is very much an English view. As a Welsh person I appreciated William’s decision, and I don’t take it that he’s going to dial down on other pomp and ceremony. His father’s investiture was beset by controversy, including terrorist threats from Welsh nationalists. William and Catherine spent the first years of their marriage living In Anglesey, so I think they are a bit more clued in to how Welsh people view their roles as Prince and Princess of Wales. We love their support for Wales, but the whole investiture thing just stirs up memories from the distant past reminding the Welsh how the English conqueror invested his son as Prince of Wales in place of the rightful Welsh Prince.
The other thing to remember was that Prince Charles had effectively been Prince of Wales since he was 5 years old, so the Investiture was to mark him being officially recognised around his 21st birthday. William by contrast was 40 years old when he became PoW. At a completely different point in his life, so it would seem a bit anachronistic for a middle aged man.
I’m sad that the Welsh people STILL feel that way. Like many black people who want to live in the past. I’m known there are racists across the world but they cling to the religion introduced by white people as they have in our Pacific nations. As an Aussie we celebrate our convict past. One of my ancestors was from the north of England and stole a pair of boots and was shipped off here at FIFTEEN years old!! I’m very proud of him for making a good life for himself and his ancestors. Here you’re not a “real “ Aussie unless you’ve got a convict in your family tree. Of course when it comes to sports the gloves are off. EVERYONE loves beating the Poms whatever the sport. Just a tidbit for you. One of the highlights of my life was watching Australian play Wales at Cardiff Arms Park in the 1980s. It helped that we won of course but even if we hadn’t the singing that reverberated around the stadium was magnificent and the Welsh people were so gracious in defeat, congratulating us in our Wallaby beanies etc. Then we spent the night at a pub in Usk. I swear the apples I picked from one of the trees out the back were the best I’ve ever had to this day.
You’re quite correct Rebecca about the popularity of the Monarchy in Australia 🇦🇺 & the reason for it. I certainly feel the Westminster system of Government with the Monarch as a non political Head Of State, is the most functional form of democratic government in the world. I’m not saying it’s perfect. The incumbents of successive governments leave a great deal to be desired at times but the Monarchy remains a source of constancy & reason, guiding the Nation’s of the Commonweath into harmonious & mutually beneficial relationships both internally & externally. That was certainly the purpose & function of the late Queen & remains so for her son King Charles. We are fortunate to have them as dedicated to our welfare as they are.
People do not understand that if we lose the Monarchy as the Head of Australia, we need to have a President. Australia is in enough trouble with the politicians we have now and in the past. If America is anything to go by, Presidents can be anyone who can buy their way into the position e.g. Trump, or end up being Dictators e.g. Putin. I love the Monarchy and hope that the minority of Australians don’t get their way and we become a Republic.
I’m a monarchist & look forward to your show every week, the knowledge that Rebecca & Richard bring to your show is really appreciated. Yes another show answering these questions would be amazing.
Yes but RE: Kate Middleton vs Princess Catherine it must start with the media. If everyone starts calling her Princess Catherine it will imprint in people's minds and they'll start searching for Princess Catherine. This is self reinforcing. Media keeps calling her Kate Middleton and people will keep searching it!
Absolutely LOVED the montage! It showed so much pleasure, humor, caring on the part of RF members. The unabshed love evident in the hug between Zara and Charles speaks volumes ❤🎉
When an article prints "Kate Middleton" we, the readers, think automatically that it comes from Montecito and decide that it will most probably be PR bulls*t.
You must make this a regular thing. We Americans on this site are grateful for the wonderful reportage and excellent presentation. Happy Christmas to all!
I always ♥️ this show, but especially loved this Q & A format for a nice change over the holiday season. Thanks for a stellar year of programming & the knowledgeable expertise of Rebecca & Richard! Merry Christmas & Happy New Year to all.
@simabelhinha4973 I personally celebrate Christmas but was trying to be politically correct to include Ramadan, etc. I meant holiday season, not in terms of sun tans, but the fact that most schools & many businesses close between Christmas & New Year's. Sorry for any confusion. Happy festive season! 🎄 🎅
@chantalvulker4004 you know, i agree the fact of embrancing all religions. HOWEVER, a huge HOWEVER, our roots must not be diminished just because it's politically correct. In a muslisms country would you be allowed such "politically correctness"???? Huuummmmm 🤔🤔🤔🤔 MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!
I like it when PC is the three of you - the OG as they say. It's really nice to hear, but not surprising, that overall, the RF are nice, decent, down to earth people who happen to be born into the British Royal Family.
Grateful for the three great panelists! A treat- Brava! The RF had a difficult year, but has shown what they do best this entire year! Happy (belated) Christmas, wishing everyone who reads this a happy and healthy New Year! Love & Light from Miami Shores🦚 Stay safe mates✌🏼🌎 Have a care for one another✨
When I started this I didn't expect to watch the full hour as it is longer than your normal videos, but it whizzed by as it was so interesting. Really enjoyed this. Thank you.
An anglophile from the United States here - i have been in love with Britain since i was in junior high school. I eagerly await your show every week. I just LOVED ❤ today’s show! Please make this type show (questions/answers) a regular feature. So many of the questions were ones i had myself so i was hugely interested. A very Happy New Year from a big fan across the pond! 👏🏻🎉🍾🥂
I love Rebecca English and the kind of English she speaks a Cambridge English. And does Richard. But being an Aussie, I adore the casualness of Jo and her brilliant approach to questioning.
They are a business. Profits are predicted on algorithms. A non profit could certainly damn the algorithms. Shareholders of the DM not so keen and nor is this consumer of very limited means--I am glad much of the content is free due to advertising whose sales areproportional to algorithm adherence.
@@glennismossey6976 People would already have got use to Catherine or Princess of Wales by now but the persistence of her maiden name is in my opinion a deliberate put me down . Even Meghan is now Meghan Duchess of Sussex with most publications , Why doesn’t the King say something to the Editors , it really bugs so many people !
The three of you looked 👌👌.Richard was dapper, Rebecca was elegance personified and Jo was definitely dressed shiny and scintillating! Loved the episode.
I'm surprised at the confusion about William's investiture as Prince of Wales. At the time the sentiment in Wales was against the concept of PoW not being Welsh so William was sensitive to the controversy and chose not to have the ceremony. He made several tours of Wales and borrowed on his and Catherine's early residence as husband and wife and his employment as a search and rescue pilot. It was a considered decision by William and there is almost nothing said about it now.
It is Catherine, Princess of Wales. No one ever referred to the previous Princess of Wales as Diana Spencer. I think the media resent how popular Catherine is and try to belittle her.
Diana Spencer was called Lady Di far more frequently than she was called the Princess of Wales. The use of formal or nick names by the public and the media shows that these people, who find themselves where they are by chance, are regarded as public property. That's the price they pay for their obscene wealth and privilege in a country where half our children are living in poverty.
@@elizabethunderwood3947 it's always been Princess Diana, even currently, and I think respect is a moral responsibility to every human being irrespective of class or status.
@@elizabethunderwood3947 You clearly don’t like the monarchy, or the royal family, from your comments. Why are you watching videos about people you don’t approve of?
The unwavering love and respect Prince Philip showed for his wife, Queen Elizabeth ll, was truly amazing and quite romantic, IMO. I've always been in awe of his dedication to her. Much love from Sonoma County, California USA #PalaceConfidential
All well and good for your Spanish wife, Richard. I have yet to read a Spanish newspaper which refers to Letizia Ortiz, so the Spanish seem to show more respect than British newspapers and media in general. Furthermore, 'Hola', the Spanish owner of Hello magazine, ran an article on European Royal women last week. They made reference to Maxima of The Netherlands, Mathide of Belgium, Victoria of Sweden, Mette-Marit of Norway, Mary of Denmark, Charlene of Monaco, and, you've guessed it, Kate Middleton. Were they to follow their use of titles for every other woman, the title should be Catherine of Wales. If we can't show due respect to our Royal Family, no one else will. Perhaps your august panel can give their opinion?
@@sammc2601 the algorithm will change if you start using her correct title for goodness sake they aren’t set in stone , Sophie went seamlessly from Wessex to Edinburgh , never saw her maiden name used . How can it be correct when even Meghan is called Meghan Duchess of Sussex and she is no longer a working Royal but The Princess of Wales is Kate Middleton ?
@@deborah85728 they don't care about changing the algorithms. The DM et al are businesses. They care first about profits and in THIS quarter--achieved through clicks. Again, they are at bottom, a business.
@@deborah85728 they're not here to change algorithms, they are here to read them to maximize profit. A long time royal follower, it's only 50/50 I would ID Sophie through Wessex but Lady Diana Spencer, Sarah Ferguson, Meghan Markle* would by most (?] be recognized. YOU could change the algorithms by never clicking on a Kare Middleton headline. No clicks will get the ĎM's attention. Catherine has made it clear what she prefers. Having said that, I wonder how much she cares about royal titles in the pfaff of daily life. I do think she cares as far as ceremonies, history goes. She really is a lovely woman, a class act.
Rebecca, Jo, & Richard are solid Palace Confidential favorites. All the other regular and occasional commentators are perfectly fine with me. Even when their opinions differ from mine, they are, for the most part, well mannered and respectful. The one exception is Tessa Dunlop. I couldn't more pleased she no longer appears on the show. Fortunately, she is now Piers Morgan's problem. Apparently he is fine having his program resemble that old, American embarrassment known as The Jerry Springer Show. Farewell, Tess. You are not missed.
OMG I had forgotten about that screeching bulldozer. I would ff through her and stopped watching when not possible due to her dominating 58 seconds of every minute. Agree with all the other guests' behavior, respectful.
Yes Please - more shows like this!!! Duchess Sophie very much deserves the honor of Order of the Garter, but than so does Princess Catherine. I absoultely love the last photo on the montage... King Charles hugging that lady, the pure joy on his face is so heartwarming.
Video nicely done! The conversations flowed smoothly between Jo, Rebecca, & Richard! Nice to see everyone dressed to the nines and conducted themselves professionally with class & refinement that you Brits have elevated to an art form! Happy New Year! 👍
I can hear and feel a storm coming California ( I live in Huntsville, Alabama) due to the pictures of royal family members that were shown at the end of the broadcast. Just beautiful, thank you so much. How will megs try to outdo that?
or look at it as a compliment. The Middletons are the gift that keeps on giving. God bless them. The absolute treasure they have given our country by their parenting and grandparenting is something that inspires King, Country , Commonwealth and the world.
If I could be anyone it would be Catherine. She elegant, tall and well loved and exudes a resilience and confidence as she grew into her job. PLUS she’s married to a handsome future King who absolutely adores her.
I didn't realise it was Thursday, you're all very good to give up a few hours to record this (I doubt you're as good as 'one take Winsor') Thank you...
Thank you Amir for bringing up the "Kate Middleton" question. The panel's answers were complete BS. All three of them. Yes, Jo we know you aren't being deliberately disrespectful. But you also aren't making a point of being respectful. How hard would it be to just call her Catherine on your show?? Make that your policy and stick to it. I'm sure there are plenty of other "rules" you follow on your show that we aren't aware of. If a panelist can't just observe the rule (looking at you Charlotte), don't have them on.
Pneumonia is no joke. It can be life-threatening, especially for older people, and it generally takes months to fully recover for even a fit younger person. Kudos to Queen Camilla for undertaking any royal duties before her holiday break. Also, so nice to see the charming and much-loved Rebecca being acknowledged in the chosen questions. Sending a cheer for all the regulars, including Jo, and special guest hosts at PC from this Canadian subscriber. Thank you for providinga an informative, entertaining episode every week.
Excellent idea to answer questions from the public, it is a very nice attention. Today, it was a real pleasure to see my favorite trio participate in this informative and joyful conversation. Richard is very elegant tonight, and he often is. I also love his ties, he has very beautiful ones. In addition, these ladies are magnificent. Jo, always so pretty, sunny and sparkling, wears a color that sublimates her and Rebecca is more and more beautiful. We watch them from France and their outfits are commented on between us, it is our frivolous side, but that said the most important thing remains what these people tell us and teach us. I send a huge thank you to this trio for all their excellent videos, and I wish them a happy end of the year.
For one who as been critical of PC........ I must say today's episode as been just great ( especially no mention of the Montocito duo) the finish montage couldn't have been better......thank you very much.......A very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to all
Oh Richard, Richard, Richard. I enjoy your participation on the show. But how can you wear navy blue socks, complete with a lighter coloured stripe, with a formal black tuxedo? For heaven's sake get yourself a pair of plain black socks, that go high enough so that no skin shows, when you are in formal attire.
I love Jo saying Harry didn’t follow the instructions on grow your own girlfriend. 😂😂😂😂
😂😂😂 right! I was thinking something similar but Jo said it well

As much as I agree we are living in different times, but having a coronation is rare. So I hope William does have one.
I agree. I would be really disappointed if he doesn't keep up with all the old traditions.

@@MahinderSG1952 I also would like to see a coronation & celebration, but certainly a downscaled version
Richard frequently is pro Sussex.
Plus, they ought to wear their tiara’s. King Charles’ Coronation was watered down, I heard, the royal ladies did not wear their tiaras.
Under no circumstances should Harry be awarded anything to do with the order of the garter or any other part that comes from the UK or England.

I agree with your comments on Rebecca English. Mr Eden... I'm not so sure about. I'm sorry to say he doesn't always paint the honest Picture of the Royals and leaving out one small Point...can make a big difference in How Our Royals are perceived. Today was the ideal example...discussing the Royals Income he didn't mention that their private Income is Taxable and as we pay tax to the Monarch in effect...HM Tax Office. The Queen could have left it as the Monarch was except ...BUT Charles decided many many years ago... His Income will be taxable and he paid tax...and Then The Queen agreed and does the same...
Prince Charles as he was...Greatly Changed the Dutchy of Cornwall and ploughed his income into It and turned it around in monumental ways ...And that's Pretty special !! He really is a world class landlord. Increasing his Income increases the tax he pays...Country Wins.
Richard could have said...of course they have paid TAX on this income.
I agree about Rebecca English. Not so much about Eden, he can't or won't use Princess Catherine's proper name...don't like the disrespect.
Agree! I like both very much. And yes, Rebecca is even prettier these days. I love her newer hair style. Richard looks quite dapper in his tux on his other channel.
Rebecca is a star! Richard, on the other hand, has fallen so far!! If I didn't know any better, I'd think he was on the Harkle payroll.
@@MichelleFairbanks-u2h I don’t always agree with what he says, but I don’t think he’s a fan or Meghan Markle at all. He’s made that pretty clear in most of his comments about her. He’s also said that his favorite royal is Catherine.
Very much in favour of the Monarchy .. from Australia.
I'm with you !! And, I am from Texas,
Cheers to our Monarchy!! 💜🇨🇦
Agree from NZ
The most valuable service the monarchy performs for Australia is as a place holder so a president (dictator?) can’t muscle in and take over.
Merry Christmas to you all! Thank you for today's show! 🇨🇦

Harry&MM were upset their pictures was not on the desk ?
Neither were Princess Anne, Edward&Sophie, I must of missed hearing an announcement of their upcoming books qbout how they weren't included
Absolutely, the Queen had 4 children and 8 grandchildren. The only ones shown are the direct heirs. Harry’s sense of importance is both disturbing and amusing.

Catherine is AMAZING! I remember waking my child up to watch the wedding of W&C like my mother woke us up for C&D. The Princess of Wales is the greatest asset to the BRF.
Everyone look so great with their Holiday outfits! 🎉
Except for Richard's navy blue socks with a stripe.
@@maryoleary2037exactly!
A coronation is an essential public commitment by the new monarch. The pomp and ceremony is essential to UK image.
That's right. Prince William chose not to have an Investiture ceremony as Prince of Wales. But he'll definitely have a Coronation one day (God willing).
@@Anna_Key The investiture was created for Charles. It's not traditional. Charles was at that time very young, which was the reason.
Indeed. Along with football hooligans, bland food, Channel crossings of trafficked would-be asylum seekers, the Empire and multi-culturalism.
So true. It’s such a special unique event and it brilliantly showcases the UK. I’m sure it’s a huge boost to tourism for years after.
Thanks very much for answering my question. The Duchess of Edinburgh been doing fantastic works since day one and she deserves all the love and appreciation. And I must say, Jo Elvin’s ensemble is striking and she looks amazing. Love her dress!
I agree with your comments regarding Sophie Duchess of Edinburgh. The late Queen adored Sophie, Edward was also a favourite of Prince Philip.
Thank you for excellent question, glad you enjoyed the show!
A wonderful informative program.Thank you. Rebecca is a jewel writing about the crown.
Not everything can be public because of security reasons.
This was an excellent show and probably the most interesting, entertaining and informing to date. Rebecca and Richard did an excellent job in answering all the questions as well!
Favorite trio.
Princess Dianna may have been referred to as Lady Di or Dianna when she was married to Prince Charles, but she wasn't referred to as Dianna Spencer. Calling Catherine, the Princess of Wales Kate Middleton has got to stop.
I agree. If they can't fit everything in the headline, then why not at least Princess Cate (yes with a C! I can't believe she gets called Kate when her name starts with a C..) that would be the same as Princess Diana. And if they can possibly squeeze in a bit more, Princess Catherine.
Do they realise that Princess Cate is actually 1 letter shorter than Kate Middleton? 😮
Well Diana was born a Lady and Catherine a commoner. She came onto the scene as Kate but later asked even her friends to call her Catherine. Neither could be called Princesses directly as Anne, Eugenia, Beatrice and Charlotte are as they weren’t born Princesses. They could only be called by their names followed by the Princess of Wales title e.g Catherine, Princess of Wales.
You're so right. It's intentionally dismissive and disrespectful, and she doesn't deserve to be treated that way. She's been nothing but kind, loyal, hard-working and respectful to the Royal family. Plus, she has given them three children, who she's raised to be kind, well-mannered, well-adjusted and just wonderful. You will never see antics like Harry's from them.
Re: the question about William not having had an investiture as Prince of Wales. Richard’s response is very much an English view. As a Welsh person I appreciated William’s decision, and I don’t take it that he’s going to dial down on other pomp and ceremony. His father’s investiture was beset by controversy, including terrorist threats from Welsh nationalists.
William and Catherine spent the first years of their marriage living In Anglesey, so I think they are a bit more clued in to how Welsh people view their roles as Prince and Princess of Wales. We love their support for Wales, but the whole investiture thing just stirs up memories from the distant past reminding the Welsh how the English conqueror invested his son as Prince of Wales in place of the rightful Welsh Prince.
Thank you for explaining this, and explaining it so well.
As a non UK citizen I had no idea.
@@ynys_mon6928 great points.
William like the King have a great love for Wales and the Welsh people
The other thing to remember was that Prince Charles had effectively been Prince of Wales since he was 5 years old, so the Investiture was to mark him being officially recognised around his 21st birthday. William by contrast was 40 years old when he became PoW. At a completely different point in his life, so it would seem a bit anachronistic for a middle aged man.
I’m sad that the Welsh people STILL feel that way. Like many black people who want to live in the past.
I’m known there are racists across the world but they cling to the religion introduced by white people as they have in our Pacific nations.
As an Aussie we celebrate our convict past. One of my ancestors was from the north of England and stole a pair of boots and was shipped off here at FIFTEEN years old!!
I’m very proud of him for making a good life for himself and his ancestors.
Here you’re not a “real “ Aussie unless you’ve got a convict in your family tree.
Of course when it comes to sports the gloves are off. EVERYONE loves beating the Poms whatever the sport.
Just a tidbit for you. One of the highlights of my life was watching Australian play Wales at Cardiff Arms Park in the 1980s.
It helped that we won of course but even if we hadn’t the singing that reverberated around the stadium was magnificent and the Welsh people were so gracious in defeat, congratulating us in our Wallaby beanies etc.
Then we spent the night at a pub in Usk. I swear the apples I picked from one of the trees out the back were the best I’ve ever had to this day.
You’re quite correct Rebecca about the popularity of the Monarchy in Australia 🇦🇺 & the reason for it. I certainly feel the Westminster system of Government with the Monarch as a non political Head Of State, is the most functional form of democratic government in the world. I’m not saying it’s perfect. The incumbents of successive governments leave a great deal to be desired at times but the Monarchy remains a source of constancy & reason, guiding the Nation’s of the Commonweath into harmonious & mutually beneficial relationships both internally & externally. That was certainly the purpose & function of the late Queen & remains so for her son King Charles. We are fortunate to have them as dedicated to our welfare as they are.
👏👏👏👍👌🇦🇺👋
I agree. Look at the US as an example.
Exactly, the monarch is an apolitical head of state, my nightmare has always been President Tony Blair, unity not division
I’m Australian and only the media and a few politicians talk about a republic. The majority of us like and support the current system.
People do not understand that if we lose the Monarchy as the Head of Australia, we need to have a President. Australia is in enough trouble with the politicians we have now and in the past. If America is anything to go by, Presidents can be anyone who can buy their way into the position e.g. Trump, or end up being Dictators e.g. Putin. I love the Monarchy and hope that the minority of Australians don’t get their way and we become a Republic.
I’m a monarchist & look forward to your show every week, the knowledge that Rebecca & Richard bring to your show is really appreciated. Yes another show answering these questions would be amazing.
Yes but RE: Kate Middleton vs Princess Catherine it must start with the media. If everyone starts calling her Princess Catherine it will imprint in people's minds and they'll start searching for Princess Catherine. This is self reinforcing. Media keeps calling her Kate Middleton and people will keep searching it!
She is not Princess Catherine. She is Princess William as she was not born royal. Gotta love this feudal hangover.
@@elizabethunderwood3947 Actually no, she is The Princess of Wales.

The three of you are the PERFECT PANEL!!!!!
I love Rebecca English and the kind of English she speaks a Cambridge English. And does Richard. But being an Aussie, I adore the casualness of Jo and her brilliant approach to questioning.
Nonsense Richard! HRH The Princess of Wales deserves full respect of the position she holds. Algorithms be dambed!
And I, does saying, “ orally,” Kate affects the algorithm, whatever?
They are a business. Profits are predicted on algorithms. A non profit could certainly damn the algorithms. Shareholders of the DM not so keen and nor is this consumer of very limited means--I am glad much of the content is free due to advertising whose sales areproportional to algorithm adherence.
@@glennismossey6976 People would already have got use to Catherine or Princess of Wales by now but the persistence of her maiden name is in my opinion a deliberate put me down . Even Meghan is now Meghan Duchess of Sussex with most publications , Why doesn’t the King say something to the Editors , it really bugs so many people !
The three of you looked 👌👌.Richard was dapper, Rebecca was elegance personified and Jo was definitely dressed shiny and scintillating! Loved the episode.
Thank you very much for the compliments and thanks for watching!
Yes! More Q &A. One of your best episodes. Truly love when 3 of you not only inform but show us your real personalities! Delightful.
I'm surprised at the confusion about William's investiture as Prince of Wales. At the time the sentiment in Wales was against the concept of PoW not being Welsh so William was sensitive to the controversy and chose not to have the ceremony. He made several tours of Wales and borrowed on his and Catherine's early residence as husband and wife and his employment as a search and rescue pilot. It was a considered decision by William and there is almost nothing said about it now.
Rebecca brings facts,
Richard brings sensationalism.
Jo brings joy and humour ❤
Richard may bring some sensationalism but also has a vast actual knowledge he shares.

It is Catherine, Princess of Wales. No one ever referred to the previous Princess of Wales as Diana Spencer. I think the media resent how popular Catherine is and try to belittle her.
Diana Spencer was called Lady Di far more frequently than she was called the Princess of Wales. The use of formal or nick names by the public and the media shows that these people, who find themselves where they are by chance, are regarded as public property. That's the price they pay for their obscene wealth and privilege in a country where half our children are living in poverty.
@@elizabethunderwood3947 it's always been Princess Diana, even currently, and I think respect is a moral responsibility to every human being irrespective of class or status.
@@elizabethunderwood3947 Lady Di was dropped a long time before her early death . Just a few persisted after her children were born .
@@elizabethunderwood3947 You clearly don’t like the monarchy, or the royal family, from your comments. Why are you watching videos about people you don’t approve of?

Really enjoyed this episode! Rebeca and Richard are my favorite.
I really enjoyed this video. Yes please do it again.
All well and good for your Spanish wife, Richard. I have yet to read a Spanish newspaper which refers to Letizia Ortiz, so the Spanish seem to show more respect than British newspapers and media in general. Furthermore, 'Hola', the Spanish owner of Hello magazine, ran an article on European Royal women last week. They made reference to Maxima of The Netherlands, Mathide of Belgium, Victoria of Sweden, Mette-Marit of Norway, Mary of Denmark, Charlene of Monaco, and, you've guessed it, Kate Middleton.
Were they to follow their use of titles for every other woman, the title should be Catherine of Wales. If we can't show due respect to our Royal Family, no one else will.
Perhaps your august panel can give their opinion?
They did, they all re explained the algorithms as do other content creators on their channels.
@@sammc2601 the algorithm will change if you start using her correct title for goodness sake they aren’t set in stone , Sophie went seamlessly from Wessex to Edinburgh , never saw her maiden name used . How can it be correct when even Meghan is called Meghan Duchess of Sussex and she is no longer a working Royal but The Princess of Wales is Kate Middleton ?
@@deborah85728 they don't care about changing the algorithms. The DM et al are businesses. They care first about profits and in THIS quarter--achieved through clicks. Again, they are at bottom, a business.
@@deborah85728 they're not here to change algorithms, they are here to read them to maximize profit.
A long time royal follower, it's only 50/50 I would ID Sophie through Wessex but Lady Diana Spencer, Sarah Ferguson, Meghan Markle* would by most (?] be recognized.
YOU could change the algorithms by never clicking on a Kare Middleton headline. No clicks will get the ĎM's attention.
Catherine has made it clear what she prefers. Having said that, I wonder how much she cares about royal titles in the pfaff of daily life. I do think she cares as far as ceremonies, history goes. She really is a lovely woman, a class act.
Rebecca, Jo, & Richard are solid Palace Confidential favorites. All the other regular and occasional commentators are perfectly fine with me. Even when their opinions differ from mine, they are, for the most part, well mannered and respectful. The one exception is Tessa Dunlop. I couldn't more pleased she no longer appears on the show. Fortunately, she is now Piers Morgan's problem. Apparently he is fine having his program resemble that old, American embarrassment known as The Jerry Springer Show. Farewell, Tess. You are not missed.
OMG I had forgotten about that screeching bulldozer. I would ff through her and stopped watching when not possible due to her dominating 58 seconds of every minute. Agree with all the other guests' behavior, respectful.
Yes Please - more shows like this!!!
Duchess Sophie very much deserves the honor of Order of the Garter, but than so does Princess Catherine.
I absoultely love the last photo on the montage... King Charles hugging that lady, the pure joy on his face is so heartwarming.
Video nicely done! The conversations flowed smoothly between Jo, Rebecca, & Richard! Nice to see everyone dressed to the nines and conducted themselves professionally with class & refinement that you Brits have elevated to an art form! Happy New Year! 👍
I can hear and feel a storm coming California ( I live in Huntsville, Alabama) due to the pictures of royal family members that were shown at the end of the broadcast. Just beautiful, thank you so much. How will megs try to outdo that?
@@KarenCotton-u4j I live in Hartselle and it’s nice to know there are other British royalty fans in north Alabama!

If Princess of Wales is Richards favorite, why does he call her by her maiden name? It’s rude!
Catherine is her Christian name, a lot of Christians has their name shortened by their family and immediate friends. My family did that to my name.
I wish I could “like” this multiple times! Richard, 🙄😒
Yeah, calling or speaking out Kate, I believe won’t affect algorithm, which is his reason.
Don’t understand why Rebecca can call her Catherine but little Dicky can’t?
or look at it as a compliment. The Middletons are the gift that keeps on giving. God bless them. The absolute treasure they have given our country by their parenting and grandparenting is something that inspires King, Country , Commonwealth and the world.
If I could be anyone it would be Catherine. She elegant, tall and well loved and exudes a resilience and confidence as she grew into her job. PLUS she’s married to a handsome future King who absolutely adores her.
WOW - 700 HOMES AT THAT ONE CASTLE? Wow, that's rich. Harry was SOOOO stupid to leave this incredible family.
I would love to see a feature on Zara - especially on her fashion choices. I think she's fab!
Smoking not royal? I immediately thought of Princess Margaret and her dramatic use of her cigarette holder.
I didn't realise it was Thursday, you're all very good to give up a few hours to record this (I doubt you're as good as 'one take Winsor') Thank you...
Who is 'one take Windsor'?
Thank you Amir for bringing up the "Kate Middleton" question. The panel's answers were complete BS. All three of them. Yes, Jo we know you aren't being deliberately disrespectful. But you also aren't making a point of being respectful. How hard would it be to just call her Catherine on your show?? Make that your policy and stick to it. I'm sure there are plenty of other "rules" you follow on your show that we aren't aware of. If a panelist can't just observe the rule (looking at you Charlotte), don't have them on.
Rebecca you look fabulous good for you 🎉
BUT if you ALL use Catherine the algorithms would change
Exactly, bunch of weak excuse. Shame on you!

Pneumonia is no joke. It can be life-threatening, especially for older people, and it generally takes months to fully recover for even a fit younger person.

Sending a cheer for all the regulars, including Jo, and special guest hosts at PC from this Canadian subscriber. Thank you for providinga an informative, entertaining episode every week.
Excellent idea to answer questions from the public, it is a very nice attention. Today, it was a real pleasure to see my favorite trio participate in this informative and joyful conversation. Richard is very elegant tonight, and he often is. I also love his ties, he has very beautiful ones. In addition, these ladies are magnificent. Jo, always so pretty, sunny and sparkling, wears a color that sublimates her and Rebecca is more and more beautiful. We watch them from France and their outfits are commented on between us, it is our frivolous side, but that said the most important thing remains what these people tell us and teach us. I send a huge thank you to this trio for all their excellent videos, and I wish them a happy end of the year.
