The Prince has addressed rumors that he and Meghan Markle are divorcing

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle anticipated a care-free life in sunny California, bit it seems like things didn’t turn out that way.

When they decided to leave Britain behind and settle in the States, they hoped for a fresh start. However, they faced an array of challenges, one of which their inability to make friends and Harry’s feelings of nostalgia. Allegedly, he’s been missing his old life and his friends back in his homeland.

According to royal expert Tom Quinn, Harry has been looking for a house in Britain to have a place to stay when visiting his family, with whom he’s not been on good terms since stepping down from his royal duties.

Harry visited Britain a handful of times, and the possibility of him making a visit to his homeland together with his family is a matter of discussion because his wife Meghan fears for her children’s safety when in Britain.

A source close to the Sussexes opened up about Meghan’s decision not to accompany her husband to Britain for the Invictus Games celebration.

“It’s now got to the point where Meghan doesn’t want to come to the UK with the children. She just doesn’t feel safe. The situation is now about whether the family should attend with increased security or Harry should go it alone,” they said at the time.

Last year, Harry disputed the Home Office’s decision to cut his security protection while he was in the UK. Following his departure from royal life, the Royal and VIP Executive Committee (RAVEC) withdrew his automatic police protection. Additionally, his offer to pay for his own security was rejected because British police could not be hired privately.

“It was with great sadness for both of us that my wife and I felt forced to step back from this role and leave the country in 2020,” Harry’s statement, read by his lawyer Shaheed Fatima KC stated, as reported by BBC.

“The UK is my home. The UK is central to the heritage of my children and a place I want them to feel at home as much as where they live at the moment in the US. That cannot happen if it’s not possible to keep them safe when they are on UK soil.”

The Duke added, “I cannot put my wife in danger like that, and, given my experiences in life, I am reluctant to unnecessarily put myself in harm’s way too.”

However, Harry and Meghan are still close to certain members of the Firm, including Princess Eugenie.

Recently, the Sussexes purchased a residence in Portugal, which is close to that of Princess Eugenie.

According to Richard Fitzwilliams, a royal expert, this could be interpreted as a good will by Harry and Meghan to stay close with select members of the royalty and possibly a step towards rebuilding their relationship with King Charles and Prince William.

Recently, however, rumors have surfaced that Harry and Meghan’s marriage may be shaky.

A source told Closer that Meghan Markle is “deeply concerned” that the royals “might manipulate” Harry into returning to the royal fold.

“Now, if it is deemed safe from a security standpoint, it’s likely she’ll give her blessing for Harry to take Archie and Lilibet to see their grandpa, King Charles, at some point,” the insider said, per The Sun. “And in terms of logistics, having a place in Portugal will make that easier, because Meghan can fly over with the kids without feeling trapped.”

In the resent months, both Harry and Meghan took a number of solo engagements, and as per a GB News source, the Duchess is affected by the rumors.

“She has really felt the strain in recent weeks, and with all the speculation surrounding her and Harry and their marriage,” the source said.

“They haven’t done themselves any favours by doing so many separate events but this is what they have decided to do as it works best for them at the moment as a couple and they both feel they can shine at events that are close to their hearts.”

The source added: “But it does upset her that, while Harry was getting praised for all of his appearances, she is getting criticised for what she says, what she wears, etc and it brings back hurtful memories of when she was a royal.”

PR expert Ed Coram James argues that working on separate project may help the couple build more positive image of themselves as separate individuals.

He stated that ever since the infamous Oprah interview their shared brand has become “more toxic” and “commercially untenable.”

“This is because the ongoing confrontation with the rest of the Royal Family, as well as much of Meghan’s family, have made them appear confrontational and combative, their string of commercial projects that haven’t worked out and have led to a sense that they aren’t the best producers. And their worldwide publicity tour made them look whiney, ungrateful, and unconscious to the enormous privilege that they have enjoyed,” Ed Coram James told the Mirror.

“To overcome the obstacles of appearing spoiled, arrogant, immature, attention-seeking, aggressive, fight-picking, hypocritical, and incompetent is very tricky. But, it is achievable. To do it, they need to lean into the exact opposites of these labels. The first step in this always had to be to dissociate themselves from the brand that had achieved such labels in the first place.”

James added: “When combined, the Sussexes brand is, from a PR perspective, toxic. But, when separate, they have a genuine chance of creating an entirely separate brand, with completely different labels. If they manage to achieve this, then one day they could again reunite brands, and create a new combined brand that works.”

Renae Smith, founder and director of PR firm Atticism, agrees but believes that this decision could affect their relationship negatively in the long run.

“I think their decision to pursue individual brands could indeed work in their favour over the long term, although it’s bound to spark a fair amount of public speculation in the short term,” he said.

“From a PR perspective, this shift might allow each of them to create distinct brands that better reflect their different priorities and resonate more coherently with their individual audiences.”

Meghan Markle and Prince Harry have admitted themselves that they’re at a ‘crossroads’ when it comes to their professional endeavors.

The Duchess attended a Thanksgiving event hosted by the Southern California Welcome Project in collaboration with their Archewell Foundation, while her husband was in Canada doing events related to the Invictus Games.

At the event Meghan attended, she expressed gratitude for the opportunity to connect with women who had resettled in the United States from Afghanistan. “This initiative, led by the partner organization Mina’s List, has spent the past year building community through storytelling and creating a safe space for women who have resettled in the U.S. from Afghanistan. The evening included a shared meal that encouraged open conversation centered on gratitude and resilience,” she said in her statement.

The couple will attend the Invictus Games in February 2025 together. They will likely take their children with them, which would be a rare public appearance of the young prince and princess.

Harry also explained why he and Meghan are attending separate events.

“I Google News-ed you, and there were people fascinated by everything you’re doing, all the time,” NYT journalist Andrew Ross Sorkin asked Harry during the New York Times’ 2024 DealBook Summit in New York City on Wednesday, December 4.

“They’re fascinated by Meghan, who is in California right now, and you’re here.

“And there’s articles left and right about, you know, ‘Why are you making independent events? Why aren’t you doing them together?’”

Harry quipped: “Because you invited me, you should have known!”

“True,” Sorkin replied, “Is that normal for you?

“The second there’s an article — she’s in California, you’re in New York — they say, ‘Well, what is happening with these two, right?’ Is that a beneficial thing for you, in a way, that there’s so much interest in you?”

The Duke then admitted, “No, that’s definitely not a good thing.

“Apparently we’ve bought or moved house 10, 12 times.

“We’ve apparently divorced maybe 10, 12 times as well. So it’s just like, what?”

After speaking of his relationship with Meghan, Harry reflected on his tumultuous relationship with the media.

“I’ve had a lived experience since I was a kid,” he said, “I’ve seen stories written about myself that aren’t exactly based on reality.

“I’ve seen stories about members of my family, friends, strangers, all sorts of people.

“And I think when you grow up within that environment, you do find yourself questioning the validity of the information but also what other people are thinking of that as well, and how dangerous it can be over the course of time.”

Neighbor refused to pay my son for shoveling snow

Shoveling snow for our neighbor, Mr. Dickinson, who loves flaunting his wealth and bragging about his business ventures, was how my 12-year-old son planned to earn his money for Christmas gifts.

When Mr. Dickinson saw him one day and offered him $10 a day for shoveling the snow from his driveway, Ben was over the moon.

Although it was hard work, he was eager to be the one getting the dollhouse his sister Anne loved from the moment she saw it at the toy store’s window.

And for me, he wanted to gift me a Christmas scarf with snowflakes. “I’m saving what’s left for a telescope,” Ben said excitedly.

Midjourney

The thought of “earning” his own money by shoveling snow made him really happy.

On the first day, his little fingers were stiff, and his cheeks were red, but there was a smile on his face.

The following day, Ben’s excitement grew bigger. “Mom, I’m doing it faster now.”

Eight days of hard work passed by, and Ben was finally getting his money, or at least that’s what he thought.

Midjourney

While I was making dinner, he stormed inside the house with tears in his eyes. “What’s wrong, honey,” I asked.

He came closer, gave me a hug, and said, “Mom, Mr. Dickinson won’t pay me for shoveling snow all these days. He said no written contract, no money.”

My heart ached for my little boy, whom I had never seen as disappointed as he was in that moment.

“Don’t worry, Ben, I’ll handle this,” I assured him, put on my coat and shoes, and went straight to Mr. Dickinson.

Midjourney

He opened the door with a huge fake smile on his face. “Oh, what a pleasure, Mrs. Carter,” he said.

“I think you know why I’m here,” I said. “You owe my son $80 for his hard work of shoveling snow.”

“Well, Mrs. Carter, no contract, no payment. You know, that’s how real world works.”

Having heard that, I just turned around and left.

Midjourney

That evening, my husband and I made a plan. It was time that Mr. Dickinson learned a lesson of respecting a young man’s hard work.

In the morning, I told Ben and Anne to put on their winter clothes and get outside. When they asked me what we were doing that early, I told them we would be righting a wrong, and they both knew what I was talking about.

Pexels

My husband fired up the snowblower, Ben grabbed his shovel, and even Anne was determined to help teach Mr. Dickinson a lesson.

First, we cleared our driveway and then moved to the sidewalk, making sure we created neat paths for the neighbors. Then, as the snow pile grew larger, we approached Mr. Dickinson’s clear driveway.

Scoop by scoop, we buried this mean neighbor’s driveway under a fortress of snow.

Midjourney

Our fingers froze, and we were exhausted. However, Mr. Dickinson’s face when he spotted the piles of snow on his driveway was worth the struggle.

He was angry and started yelling at us, threatening he would file a lawsuit.

I then turned to him and said, “Well, Mr. Dickinson, there is something called quantum meruit in the world of law. A legal concept that says if you don’t pay for someone’s work, you don’t get to enjoy the benefits.”

Pexels

He said he didn’t care, and that he was calling the police anyways. But I reminded him there were plenty of witnesses among the neighbors who saw him exploit a minor without paying him for shoveling snow all way.

Needless to say, Mr. Dickinson understood he was wrong, and came knocking at our door with an envelope in his hand. Inside were the hard earned eight $10 bills.

I went to pick up my wife and newborn twins from the hospital

My heart was pounding with joy of the thought that my newborn twin daughters and my loving wife were finally coming home from the hospital.

The car was filled with a bunch of balloons, and I couldn’t wait to embrace them.

Midjourney

The moment I stepped in the hospital, I rushed towards Suzie’s room. Callie and Jessica were in their tiny beds, but my wife was not around. I thought she went outside to catch some fresh air, but then I approached my babies and noticed a note in one of the beds.

“Goodbye. Take care of them. Ask your mother WHY she did this to me.”

Midjourney

My world collapsed. At that moment, the nurse entered the room. “Good morning, sir, here’s the discharge —” she said, but I stopped her and asked about Suzie. “She checked out this morning. She said you knew.”

Defeated, I took my babies and headed home. At the porch stood my mother. She was all smiles. “Oh, Ben, they are so beautiful,” she said and tried to take the girls, but I refused to let her have them.

Midjourney

“Mom, what did you do to Suzie,” I asked her. Her face went pale, but she denied ever saying anything to my wife.

“Ben, I don’t know what you are talking about,” she said, looking all puzzled.

I didn’t know what to think. That evening, I recalled every aspect of Suzie’s pregnancy. She always seemed very happy, and nothing spoke trouble. And now, I was all by myself, alone and miserable.

Then, I thought of the seemingly meaningless barbs my mom would throw at Suzie. She would always laugh them off, but could she in fact be hurt by it?

Midjourney

I went through Suzie’s things, hoping to find answers. And there they were, inside the tiny jewelry box she adored. A letter from my mom to Suzie in which she wrote my girls and I would be better off without her in our lives. She wrote Suzie wasn’t worth and that she trapped me with the pregnancy.

As tears started rolling down my eyes for not noticing my mom’s behavior towards Suzie for so long, I confronted my mother and told her to leave my home.

She tried to defend herself, but I didn’t want to hear the word she said.

Days turned into weeks, and I struggled with diapers, sleepless nights, and a lot of crying – from both my twins and me.

Midjourney

I contacted every person that knew Suzie, but no one knew where she could be. And then, one of her closest friends, Sarah, told me how she struggled because of my mother, but was too scared to tell me, believing my mom would turn me against her.

I was a lost man. Life was getting harder and harder with each passing day, and the girls’ 1st birthday was a bittersweet moment.

I lost hope of ever seeing my wife again.

One day, while the girls were playing in the living room, someone knocked on the door.

When I opened it, I saw my wife. She looked fresh and healed.

Midjourney

I didn’t say a word, I just embraced her and started crying. It was the first time in over a year that I felt whole.

Suzie cried even heavier than me. She started apologizing, saying that my mom’s actions and the postpartum depression overwhelmed her. She convinced herself that our daughters and I would be better without her in our lives.

But over time, she sought therapy and started feeling better. That day, she was finally able to meet us again.

We were able to rebuild what we almost lost.

Bindi Irwin is on the path to recovery

Many said that late Steve Irwin’s children had big shoes to fill when they decided to follow into his footsteps. However, they are showing the world that they are continuing their father’s legacy in the best way possible. The love they feel for the animals is enormous and their efforts to preserve different species is effortless.

Bindi Irwin and Robert Irwin, together with their mother Terri, work as zoo keepers in Australia. They are involved in conservation, promotion, and protection of animals.

Bindi, who is now a mom of daughter Grace Warrior, often shares photos of her little one and updates her fans of important events of her life.

This time, she shared a photo of herself from the hospital, telling her fans that after years of living in pain, she has finally decided to take care of a condition she suffered from.

Namely, Bindi was diagnosed with endometriosis, a disorder in which cells identical to the lining of the uterus develop outside of the uterus.

The thing is that she spent years trying to figure out what was wrong with her.

“Dear Friends, I battled for a long time wondering if I should share this journey with you in such a public space. It came down to the responsibility I feel to share my story for other women who need help,” she wrote on the social media and explained that doctors’ ignored her symptoms for long.

“A doctor told me it was simply something you deal with as a woman & I gave up entirely, trying to function through the pain. I didn’t find answers until a friend @lesliemosier helped set me on a path of regaining my life. I decided to undergo surgery for endometriosis,” she wrote, adding that the doctors found thirty-seven lesions and an ovarian cyst.

Then, it was a friend of hers who encouraged her to do all in her power to detect the reason behind the pain she experienced for so long.

Finally, she was diagnosed and could get the treatment needed.

“Things may look fine on the outside looking in through the window of someone’s life, however, that is not always the case. Please be gentle & pause before asking me (or any woman) when we’ll be having more children,” she wrote. 

“Our graceful warrior is the most beautiful light,” the proud mom wrote. “Grace is named after my great-grandmother, and relatives in Chandler’s family dating back to the 1700s. Her middle names, Warrior Irwin, are a tribute to my dad and his legacy as the most incredible Wildlife Warrior. Her last name is Powell and she already has such a kind soul just like her dad.”

Experts Are Shedding Light on the ‘Death Rattle’ Phenomenon Before Passing

When someone is nearing the end of life, their body undergoes many changes, some of which may occur months before their passing. However, in the final 24 hours, loved ones may witness a common and often unsettling phenomenon—a noise known as the ‘death rattle.’

What is the ‘Death Rattle’?

According to Medical News Today, the ‘death rattle’ is caused by changes in breathing patterns and the buildup of secretions in the throat. Hospice Nurse Julie, an expert in end-of-life care, describes the sound:

“This is just a collection of a small bit of saliva in the back of the throat that just sounds really bad.”

Julie adds that fever is also common during this stage:

“We lose the ability to control the core temperature, so our temperature will fluctuate at the end of life. Again, it’s all very normal and part of the death and dying process if you are dying naturally at home.”

What Does the ‘Death Rattle’ Sound Like?

The ‘death rattle’ occurs when a person’s ability to swallow diminishes, allowing secretions to build up in the respiratory tract. The sound is often described as a “crackling, wet noise” that grows louder with each breath.

Some describe it as a faint groaning or snoring sound, while others liken it to a louder gurgling noise. Despite its alarming nature, it’s important to note that the individual is not experiencing pain or discomfort during this process.

Research shows that the average lifespan after the onset of the death rattle is around twenty-five hours. However, the process tends to last longer for those receiving hospice care compared to hospital patients.

What Can You Do to Ease the ‘Death Rattle Noise’?

While the ‘death rattle’ is a natural part of the dying process, there are ways to reduce its intensity to comfort those nearby:

  • Turn the person onto their side to allow secretions to drain.
  • Raise their head slightly to promote drainage.
  • Moisten their mouth with damp swabs to keep it hydrated.
  • Use suction to remove secretions when appropriate.
  • Limit fluid intake to prevent excessive secretions.
  • Administer medications designed to clear secretions, as prescribed by medical professionals.

It’s important to understand that while these measures can help reduce the noise, they likely won’t eliminate it entirely. Medical professionals can provide explanations and support to help loved ones cope with the situation.

A Natural Process

The ‘death rattle’ may sound distressing to family and friends, but it’s a natural stage of the dying process. Loved ones should take solace in knowing that the individual is not in pain or distress.

Understanding the phenomenon and its implications can help bring comfort and clarity during this difficult time. By being present and informed, families can focus on providing love and support as their loved one transitions peacefully.

Woman Transforms a Plane Into a Stunning Home!

Buses, tiny homes, and shipping containers have seen a rise in popularity as creative building materials for unique homes. But what if we told you someone took this trend to new heights? This is the story of how a woman transforms plane house into a luxurious and functional home.

One-of-a-Kind Housing

In 1993, Jo Ann Ussery faced unexpected tragedy when her house was destroyed in a storm. With limited funds and two children to care for, she had to think outside the box. That’s when her brother-in-law, an air traffic controller, suggested she consider an airplane as her new home. This incredible story showcases how a woman transforms plane house into something extraordinary.

Ussery purchased a decommissioned Boeing 727 for just $2,000, plus shipping costs. Nicknamed “Little Trump” after Donald Trump’s private plane, the aircraft became her blank canvas. She spent under $30,000 renovating the interior, creating one of the most impressive transformations of its kind.

Major Refurbishment

The 138-foot-long Boeing 727 offered nearly 1,500 square feet of space, making it ideal for conversion. Ussery parked the plane nose-first over a lake on her property, creating a scenic view from what used to be the cockpit. This was just one of the creative touches that showed how a woman transforms plane house into a stunning, functional home.

Inside, Ussery installed three bedrooms, a kitchen, a laundry room, and even a master bathroom. The cockpit was transformed into a luxurious bath with a soaking tub overlooking the lake. While the exterior retained the airplane’s iconic look, the interior became a cozy and stylish home.

A Plane House Like No Other

Ussery’s incredible vision proved that even a retired aircraft could become a beautiful living space. For several years, she lived in the plane house before planning to open it as a museum. Unfortunately, during transportation, the plane was tragically damaged beyond repair. Yet her story remains an inspiring example of how a woman transforms plane house into something truly extraordinary.

What do you think of this unique housing concept? Could you imagine living in a plane house? Let us know in the comments!

Country music world praying for Jelly Roll and Bunnie Xo

Bunnie XO, Jelly Roll’s wife, spoke on her podcast, Dumb Blonde, about the common ‘misconception’ about OCD and how she’s dealing with it daily.

“I know some people joke about being a little OCD, but as someone who’s actually living with OCD, I’ll be the first to tell you it’s not a laughing matter,” Bunnie XO said.

“It isn’t just being tidy or organized. OCD is actually having disturbing, unwanted thoughts that cause you overwhelming anxiety because they just feel so wrong, and you really don’t wanna be thinking about them.”

Bunnie XO then went into details about her repetitive behaviors.

“You do [them] to try to make the anxiety from those thoughts go away; but that just doesn’t work in the long run, and they just keep coming back,” she explained.

“The idea that OCD is only about hand-washing and organization is a complete misconception,” Bunnie continued. “It often focuses on the things we care about most, our relationships, religious beliefs, our hobbies, and passions, in an attempt to make the distress from their unwanted thoughts go away.”

Earlier this year, Bunnie XO shared with fans that she experienced a “pretty scary” situation after undergoing an MRI/MRA scan.

According to her, her results showed that she had a “two-millimeter aneurysm on my carotid artery,” but days later, she was told it was likely instead “an artifact.”

“I tell you what, this health scare put so much in perspective for me,” Bunnie XO told her followers. “It honestly made me want to change a lot of things in my life.”

She continued, “Be more appreciative of my family & friends. It also made me reevaluate my relationship w/ God & learn to have faith for the first time in my life.”

In May, 2024, Bunnie XO suffered the loss of her father, Bill. He died of cancer.

Bunnie XO paid tributes to her dad on the social media, writing, “Hey Bill, I’m going to miss you. You are still my favorite rock star & my hero. This one’s going to hurt.”

Boy gives up dream shoes to buy boots for poor classmate

David, a young and talented football player, always dreamed of making it to the national team. Despite being just 12, he practiced a lot, and was determined to make his dream come true. He also dreamed of a pair of spiked shoes.

Every now and then, while sitting at the window seat on the school bus, he daydreamed of lifting the trophy of an important championship and thanking his mother for everything she had done for him. “That would be an awesome speech,” he would mumble.

Getty Images

For months, David had been saving for a new pair of sneakers. He loved those sneakers so much. Every day, he would sell lemonade on the stand he had built himself and would help his neighbors with errands in order to be able to collect the money himself without burdening his mom who already had a lot on her plate raising him and his twin sisters.

David stopped by the shoe store and told the owner that he had been saving up for the new shoes. “Young man, your shoes will be here waiting,” Mr. Manning said with a smile on his face.

One day, on the way to school, a boy named Guillermo asked David if he could take the seat next to him. “Of course,” David replied.

Getty Images

Guillermo admired David. He wanted to be famous among the schoolmates just as David was.

That day, Guillermo told David that he liked his shoes, but David said they were old already and that he was saving up for a brand new pair.

Guillermo felt a bit embarrassed and hid his feet under the seat. The truth was that it was his shoes that were old and worn out, not David’s.

In the days that followed, David and Guillermo became close friends. One day, David told his friend, “Guillermo, I finally did it. My piggy bank is full. I’m getting my dream shoes today.”

Getty Images

Guillermo was very happy for David, and as the two talked, the bus suddenly jolted over a pothole, and one of Guillermo’s shoes fell off onto the bus floor.

David was taken aback. The shoe had a hole on the sole. He felt sorry for his friend and a bit embarrassed because he was bragging about the new shoes this whole time, while his friend’s were really old, the canvas was coming apart, and there was no sign of a lace.

The following day, David asked Guillermo to go with him to the store.

Getty Images

Once inside, Mr. Manning told David, “Congrats, young man, you earned your own money for the shoes. They are perfectly set in a box, waiting for you.”

“Mr. Manning,” David said, “I want the shoes, but in a smaller size, please.”

Mr. Manning was confused. “But these are your size, young man,” he said. David then pointed to Guillermo and said, “I want them in his size.”

Guillermo was stunned. “No, David, there is no need to…” But David stopped him before he finished his sentence. “Guillermo, you are such a good friend. You say I;m your idol and you call me your hero. Please, let me get these shoes for you.”

Mr. Manning knew David was a special boy, but he was still stunned at how kind his heart was.

He took out a pair of shoes in Guillermo’s size and handed it to him.

Getty Images

The two friends were happy and headed home.

Once home, however, David’s mom asked him if he got the shoes. Looking at the floor, thinking she would scold him, he said quietly, “Mom, I bought them for my friend Guillermo. His were really old, and I thought he needed them more than I did.”

His mom gave him a hug. “Oh, son, you are such a kind and compassionate young man. I’m so proud of you.”

As the two talked about Guillermo, a truck pulled in front of their home.

It was Mr. Manning. He brought plenty of shoes for David, his sister, and his friend.

Getty Images

“I know how much you wanted those spiked sneakers, and I’ve seen you selling lemonade and delivering newspapers. You helped a friend in need, and I wanted to surprise you today.”

David learned that day that even the tiniest act of kindness always goes a long way.
