Harry & Meghan consider bringing Archie and Lilibet with them on future tours, royal expert claims

Harry and Meghan are living their lives to the fullest and their recent three-day trip to Nigeria where they were welcomed as though they are still working royals angered the members of the Firm.

However, it seems like the Sussexes don’t really care what Harry’s family thinks of their actions. Allegedly, they have big plans for the future which involve their children, Archie and Lilibet, who will soon take their first steps into public life.

When Harry and Meghan left Britain behind, they made a decision to settle in the States. They started many projects and made deals with Netflix and Spotify, among the rest. Harry published his book Spare, which caused quite a stir, and now Meghan launches her luxurious lifestyle brand American Riviera Orchard.

As of Britain, they no longer have a place to stay in Harry’s homeland because King Charles made a decision to evict them from Frogmore Cottage, their now former home. The place is now a residence of Prince Andrew.

Although they lost their Britain’s home, the Duke and the Duchess kept their HRH titles. Further, their children were also given the titles of Prince and Princess following Queen Elizabeth’s death. “The children’s titles have been a birthright since their grandfather became monarch. This matter has been settled for some time in alignment with Buckingham Palace,” a spokesman for the couple said at the time.

The decision to give their children royal titles confused many as one of the reasons the Sussexes left the Firm was to lead quieter lives. Additionally, they initially thought these titles would be a burden to their children, but later changed their minds because they wanted Archie and Lilibet to decide whether to keep or drop their titles when they get older.

Speaking of the royal titles Archie and Lilibet received, royal expert Angela Levin told Sky at the time, “It will take a long time for little Lilibet to realize the extent of the burden her parents have placed on her young shoulders.” By giving their daughter a royal title, Harry and Meghan “glued her to the British Royal Family,” the establishment they have criticized heavily over the years.

Why on earth would you want your daughter to experience such anguish?” Levin asked. “Little girls obviously love being a princess at parties, but if Lilibet is the only one in the class who is a real princess, it could lead to jealousy that could easily be avoided,” she concluded.

Harry and Meghan’s trip to the second-largest Commonwealth country by population affected their relationship with the members of the Firm even further, royal experts say. The reason why is that their trip to Nigeria was seen as an “unofficial royal tour” because they were playing the “royal card,” Tom Bower argues.  

Author Phil Dampier dubbed their three-day visit “ironic” since the Sussexes had previously criticized the Commonwealth.

“It’s ironic that the late Queen wanted Harry and Meghan to very much be her ambassadors throughout the Commonwealth and spread goodwill among its fifty or so nations, but they didn’t want to do it as royals,” Dampier told the Daily Mail.

“Now they are happy to pick and choose invitations they receive from these countries.” Further, he suggested the Sussexes are trying “to set up a rival court, their own royal roadshow.”

This, of course, isn’t something Charles and William are happy about. On the contrary, “William is absolutely furious and determined to find a way to stop this happening in the future. Charles is said to be angrier than anyone has ever seen him,” Tom Quinn told the Mirror.

“It’s as if Harry and Meghan have gone rogue—their Nigeria trip is a bold statement that they refuse to accept they are no longer working royals. William and Charles are scratching their heads and thinking, ‘How are we going to control this nightmare situation?’”

Harry and Meghan seems to be ignoring the subtle warnings. What’s most, they now want to include their children into the public life, which means taking them on appearances when traveling abroad in the future.

Back in 2019, Archie joined his mom and dad at a royal tour in South Africa.

“Meghan is acutely aware of what a great look this will be – the charming royal couple with their charming royal children will attract the sort of publicity that Harry and Meghan crave, especially now that they are so determined to be billionaire entrepreneurs,” Quinn told the Mirror.

The royal expert added, “While Harry and Meghan go on with their increasingly prominent royal lives, Kate and William are left floundering and Meghan and Harry know it.”

Meghan Markle ‘left in tears’ after ‘unfair criticism’ of her new lifestyle brand

By

-

Stepping down from their royal duties and settling in sunny California didn’t prevent the Sussexes from keeping up with their luxurious lifestyle.

Among the rest, Harry and Meghan secured a five-year $100 million production deal with Netflix, which released their documentary, and made deals with Spotify.

Harry published his much-anticipated all-tell memoir Spare which sold in a staggering 1.4 million copies on its first day in the UK, United States, and Canada. Spare has been released in 16 different languages worldwide and is expected to be the best-selling book in 2023.

“We always knew this book would fly, but it is exceeding even our most bullish expectations,” Larry Finlay, managing director of Transworld Penguin Random House, said.

As Harry was cut-off financially when he left his royal family behind, he and Meghan have been forced to worked their way of making money and supporting their lavish lifestyle. With the deals they made, Meghan’s net worth of around $60 million and the $14 million princess Diana left Harry, they seem to be doing just fine.

Later on, the media group run by Harry and Meghan, Archewell Audio, and streaming giant Spotify announced that they had mutually agreed to end their multi-million dollar contract. Allegedly, Spotify expected more content from Archewell Studios.

Harry and Meghan on the other hand issued a statement saying they didn’t like the idea of distributing exclusively to Spotify. In their description, Archewell Audio’s company says its mission is “producing programming that uplifts and entertains audiences around the world,” as well as “spotlights diverse perspectives and voices. What’s most, they want to build “community through shared experience, narratives, and values.”

Bill Simmons, who founded Spotify and later sold it for around $200 million but now serves as the company’s head of podcast innovation and monetization, called the Sussexes “grifters.”

“I wish I had been involved in the ‘Meghan and Harry leave Spotify’ negotiation. The Fucking Grifters, that’s the podcast we should have launched with them,” Simmons said on the Bill Simmons podcast.

“I have got to get drunk one night and tell the story of the Zoom I had with Harry to try and help him with a podcast idea. It’s one of my best stories … Fu*k them. The grifters.”

However, despite the failed deal, Harry and Meghan have found ways to finance their lifestyle.

“[Meghan] would not have been happy with the ultimately quiet or truly independent/non-royal lives that William and Harry’s cousins actually live,” royal commentator Jane Barr wrote in her From Berkshire to Buckingham newsletter, as reported by the NY Post.

“Meghan wanted to take her HRH and her title and be a superstar in her own sphere on the international stage,” adding that it would be “wholly separate from the control of the crown.”

Most recently, Meghan presented the world with a luxurious brand, American Riviera Orchard. In the promotional video, she was featured walking around the beautiful mansion and cooking.

The first product, a lemon-filled gift basket containing fresh fruit jam, was sent to the Duchess’ closest 50 friends, many of whom celebrities.

As per her PR expert Mayah Riaz, Meghan could make as much as seven figures within the first month of launching the brand.

“So far, the jams have been sent to only 50 people. This suggests that it will be an exclusive and limited edition item,” Riaz shared with the Mirror.

“It has already been reported a single jam jar could cost three figures. I believe that is entirely likely from what we have seen so far. This is not rare for a celebrity brand.”

The PR expert added, “Therefore, my estimation is that American Riveria Orchard in under a year could make Meghan seven figures. It is entirely possible for the brand to make multi-seven figures by the end of next year,” the PR guru added.

The products the consumers will be able to choose from include oils, home fragrances, kitchen utensils, and homeware. That Meghan’s popularity is huge speaks the fact that her brand’s Instagram page gained hundreds of thousands of followers in the first 24 hours.

What remains unknown is when Meghan’s brand will go live. As per royal expert Tom Quinn, Meghan wasn’t happy with the public’s reception of American Riviera Orchard.

“The one fly in the ointment is Meghan’s new internet brand, America Riviera Orchard. Meghan was in tears when the brand launched, and her new jam was widely mocked for being expensive and nothing special. She has reached the point now where she thinks that anything and everything she does will be unfairly criticized,” Quinn said.

Harry is also convinced that the “people are unfairly picking on [his wife]”.

“She is especially sensitive about any criticism of her luxurious lifestyle in the US – from her point of view, this is something to be admired, not criticized.”

Kate Middleton has ‘turned corner’ in cancer treatment, royal sources reveal

An update by the Vanity Fair claims Catherine, the Princess of Wales, has “turned a corner” with her cancer treatment and is “doing a lot better.”

Ever since she has posted the video in which she disclosed her cancer diagnosis with the public, Kate has remained largely out of the picture and was nowhere to be seen. But the time away seemed to fit her because she got the chance to rest.

Except for Prince William’s promise during a royal engagement that he is ‘looking after’ his wife, not much has been said about Kate’s health state, but now an insider shared with Vanity Fair‘s royal author Katie Nicholl that the future Queen has been healing away and the course of her preventative chemotherapy has been successful.

“It has been a great relief that she is tolerating the medication and is actually doing a lot better,” the person close to the family revealed. “It has, of course, been a very challenging and worrying time. Everyone has rallied around her—William, her parents, and her sister and brother.”

Although she briefly returned to social media last week to showcase a project she’s been involved with, sources reveal that Kate Middleton is not rushing when it comes to resuming her royal duties and engagements.

“There is no timeline, and there is certainly no hurry,” a source said. “It will be when Catherine feels ready and when she gets the greenlight from her medical team. But she will 100% be coming back to work, of that there is no question.”

According to the same source, she only took to the social media to share insights about her project because she wanted to send a message that she’s doing well. The source added that “everyone has rallied around” the Princess, including her husband and the Middletons, who are known for being a close-knit group.

To commemorate Mental Health Awareness Week, the Prince and Princess of Wales shared a video featuring the work Kate has been doing privately.

Kate has been the “driving force” behind the charity which is believed to had been started before her cancer diagnosis.

Although there are no images published on the social media, it has been reported that Kate has been seen “out and about” with her family in recent days. However, this isn’t something the public should get too exited about because Kate still needs “space and time.”

“No one wants to put any pressure on Catherine,” an insider told MailOnline last week. “The only thing that matters at the moment is her getting better. She has been through an ordeal this year.”

Single dad helps elderly lady mow her lawn, soon gets a shocking call from her lawyer

By

-

A single dad named Felix was resting at home one day when he heard a sound of a lawnmower. He wondered who might be mowing their lawn at the time and decided to get outside and check. To his surprise, it was the elderly lady who lived next door, Mrs. McAllister.

She was way too old to be mowing her lawn. On top of that, she was barely walking with the help of her cane, so Felix offered to do the job for her, but he couldn’t help but wonder why she wasn’t getting any help from her son who barely visited her.

Mrs. McAllister was glad to accept Felix’s help. This wasn’t the first time he was there for her when she needed help around the house.

As a thank you for his kindness, Mrs. McAllister invited her hear neighbor inside and offered him a glass of lemonade. But as though that wasn’t enough, she told him to wait for her because she had something to give to him.

Pexel

After a couple of minutes, she came back with a strange box in her hands. She handed it to him and told him it was an item that had a special value to her and now she wanted Felix to have it.

He was hesitant and said he couldn’t accept that box, but she insisted. She then gave him a bag of apples for his daughter Suzie.

Once home, Felix gave the apples to Suzie, and she told him there were some papers inside with what looked like codes written on them. She assumed they were for the box her father brought home. Suize wanted to open the box but Felix said no. He believed that he should return the box back to Mrs. McAllister.

The following day, he took the box and went to Mrs. McAllister’s house. When she didn’t respond, he decided to get inside. Unfortunately, she was in her bad and looked like she was sleeping, but she was in fact dead. She must have passed away during the night.

Pexel

Some days later, Felix decided to search the Internet in hopes of finding some information about the box he received. To his surprise, it turned out it was of great historic value and could be sold for over $250,000.

Felix was both overjoyed and scared. He wasn’t sure if he should keep that box, but at the end of the day, that was Mrs. McAllister wanted.

One day, someone called Felix on the phone. “This is Tim, the lawyer for Mrs. McAllister. I’d like to get together with you right away. Are you free right now?”

The following day, they met at a nearby cafe. But the lawyer wasn’t alone, Mrs. McAllister’s son, Henry, was with him.

“Lexi, I’ll get right to the point. A small box with dials on the lid has been stolen from my mom’s house. It is a valuable family treasure. I gave you a chance to do the right thing because you were the last person in her house.”

“You think I stole from your mother?” Felix yelled. “Mrs. McAllister gave the box to me as thanks for cutting her grass—a chore you should’ve done for her!”

“Mom would never have given you that box!” Henry said as he poked Felix in the eye with his finger. “My great-great-grandfather was a famous politician, and he bought it from a famous craftsman!” There are only two like it in the whole world! I’ll give you $1,000 for the box when you give it back to me. Deal?”

“No.” Felix got up. “If you want to buy it, you can do so when I put it up for auction. Well Henry, goodbye.”

Pexel

Felix went to a nearby sales house the following day.

Mr. Whitaker, a serious man with a snobbish accent, asked him to come into a back room for the evaluation and a woman named Ellen joined them.

“I can immediately verify that the craftsmen’s mark on the underside is authentic,” said Mr. Whitaker. “That means this is a pretty important piece, sir. One of only two in the whole world.”

Ellen bent down to look at the box. “That is quite lovely…may I see your provenance documentation?”

“Excuse me?” Felix exclaimed.

“You need to provide a certificate of authentication, or any verifiable document that proves the artifact’s authenticity and your ownership,” Ellen said.

At that moment, Felix stood up and said he would leave, but they wouldn’t let him, telling him they needed to contact the police so that he could explain how he got to possess something that valuable. But Felix fled the place.

Pexels

That night, he decided to enter Mrs. McAllister’s some in hopes of finding the papers. But just as he entered through the window, a flashlight blocked his sight. It was Henry.

“Not so high and mighty now, are you Felix?” Hendry said.

 “This is not how it looks. I only need—” Felix said scared.

“The documentation for the box, I know,” Henry said. “Because that box is linked to my family, the auction house called me after you tried to scam them. Yes, I did tell them you stole it—”

Henry then gave Felix an ultimatum. He either brings the box by 08:00 am the following day or he was reporting him to the authorities.

Felix went home running. He though hard and decided not to return the box that his neighbor wanted him to have it. Then, he took the box, together with his daughter, and went to his mother’s place. He told his girl, Suzie, to sell the box for no less than $100,000 and use the money for her studies. He then returned home and waited for the police to knock on his door.

And that’s exactly what happened. Felix was accused of selling the box and spent four months in prison while waiting for his court date. But then, he was informed that someone paid his bail.

Pexel

Once free, he learned that the bail was paid by his mother and daughter.

Stunned, he asked them if they sold the box to someone, but Suzie said no.

“Well, I didn’t listen to you about the box,” Suzie said with a smile on her face. “I found a way to open it instead. That was a real award and a note from Mrs. McAllister inside. That box was very important to her, dad. It was written in the note.

“So I showed the note to your lawyer, and then I took the box with all the papers to an antique dealer,” Suzie added. “He gave us enough money for it to post bail and we still have $100,000 left!”

Am I wrong for uninviting my dad on the morning of my wedding after what he did?

By
Monica Pop
-

The quality of family relationships depends on many things, among which trust and loyalty.

A young woman shared her live story and wondered if she was in the wrong for her decision to exclude her father and her step-mother from her wedding.

Staring her post, Sarah explained that her parents divorced when she was young and she chose to stay with her father James and his new wife, Karen. The reason why was that her mother, Matilda, was somewhat distant.

Sarah remembered that when her parents split, and even before that, her mom acted strangely. Her dad provided stability for her, something she barely experienced with her mom.

Pexels

When a special occasion or a holiday came, Sarah would invite her mom to spend the day with her and her father, but she always refused. Her mom tried to avoid her father as though he was the worst person on Earth, something Sarah had a hard time understanding since her dad was a caring man.

When Sarah was to be married, one thing she was looking forward to was the fact that her parents would both be there for her.

Her dad paid for the lavish wedding because he wanted everything to be perfect for Sarah’s special day.

Pexels

The night before the big day, Sarah was at her fiance’s place and was overly excited for the wedding. She called her father just to be sure he would be picking up the following morning so that they could rehearse the father-daughter dance. “Sure, honey,” he said, and just as Sarah was about to hang up, she realized her dad was still on the phone without being aware of it.

She didn’t have an intention to listen to him and wanted to hang up, but she heard something that shocked her.

“I WISH I HAD NEVER HAD HER IN MY LIFE BECAUSE I would have met you sooner,” he told Karen, speaking of his ex-wife.

Sarah always knew that her father and her step-mother met a year after her parents divorced, but the conversation she heard said otherwise.

“I recall being unable to take my eyes off of you when I saw you in the juice aisle,” he said.

Pexels

James then expressed to Karen how he desired her immensely from that moment on. To Sarah’s shock, he added, “From then onward, I didn’t care about Matilda all pregnant at home.”

“She was a big girl and could handle it!” he laughed.

“She’s still a BIG girl!” Karen retorted, while the two started laughing at Sarah’s mother’s expense.

“You remember when we kissed for the first time a few days after my little Sarah was born?” James asked his wife lovingly.

“I remember, my love, and the first time we consummated our union was on your fourth wedding anniversary with Matilda.” James then even mentioned how they did it while Sarah, months old at the time, was asleep in her crib with her mom out running an errand.

“Remember how hard it was for us to keep seeing each other after Matilda caught us when Sarah was six?” Karen added as they continued laughing. This piece of information floored Sarah because her parents divorced when she was 11!

Freepik

Her father was cheating on her mother from the beginning.

Sarah started crying. She couldn’t stop thinking of the pain her mother had gone through. On top of that, Sarah’s choice to live with her cheating father and his mistress must have added to the heartbreak her mom experienced.

In the morning, she went to her father’s place and started packing all of her belongings. Her dad was confused.

“What’s going on? Why are you packing, and why are you here? I thought I was coming to you today?” he asked, his voice barely above a whisper.

Sarah told him she knew the truth about him and his wife.

“I overheard your conversation with Karen last night,” Sarah finally managed to say. “I know about you and stepmom…about what you did to mom.”

Freepik

He was quick to start explaining, but she stopped him middle sentence. Sarah refused to listen to more lies. And no matter how hard it was for her to make such a decision, she told her dad he wasn’t welcome to her wedding any longer.

“But I paid for everything! How can you do this to me on the morning of your wedding?” he protested, his voice rising in desperation.

“That’s just it, dad. It’s my wedding, and I can’t start my new life with lies at the foundation,” Sarah replied, holding back tears. “I’ve transferred the money back to your account. I don’t want anything from you.”

Sarah took her suitcase and headed straight to her mother’s place.  “What happened, honey? Why are you here and not getting ready for your wedding?” she asked Sarah.

Pexels

But at that moment, Sarah needed time in order to be able to utter anything. When she gathered the strength she told her mom that she learned the truth, apologized, and told her that she didn’t want her father at the wedding.

“I’m so proud of you for standing up for what’s right,” her mom said.

“The wedding ceremony was bittersweet. As my mom walked me down the aisle, I felt a mix of sorrow for the family I lost and joy for the new beginning ahead. The absence of my dad and his side of the family cast a shadow, but the love and support from those present filled the room with light,”Sarah wrote in her post.

Pexels

Then, midway through the reception something intriguing happened. Sarah’s half-brother arrived. He approached her as though he was asking for forgiveness. “I know I wasn’t supposed to come, but I had to tell you… I’m sorry for everything dad and my mom did. You deserve better,” he told his sister.

His words caught Sarah by surprise and reminded her of the complexity of family ties.

At the end of the day, she was glad her wedding turned out as she has always imagined, but she still felt the void of her father’s absence and it was a roller-coaster of emotions for her.

Melania Trump slammed for ‘profiting off dead veterans’ with new jewelry collection

By
Monica Pop
-

Donald Trump, business mogul and former president of the United States of America, is facing 34 felony charges related to the falsification of business records. These allegations stem from an alleged effort to conceal a $130,000 payment to adult film actress Stormy Daniels, aimed at preventing her from disclosing a previous sexual encounter she claimed to have had with Trump years ago—an accusation vehemently denied by Trump.

He pleaded not guilty to falsifying business records to hide damaging information. Back in 2018, Trump confessed that a non-disclosure agreement that his attorney, Michael Cohen, had made with Daniels existed but no campaign money was involved in the deal.

The former president has repeatedly denied wrongdoing in the matter and pleaded “not guilty.”

A source “who has been briefed on the procedures for the arraignment of the former president” told Yahoo that Trump was not put in handcuffs, placed in a jail cell, or forced to have a mugshot taken.

People close to Melania Trump claim she’s far from happy with the situation her husband has found himself in. “She remains angry and doesn’t want to hear [the alleged hush money payment] mentioned,” the source told People. “She is aware of who her husband is and keeps her life upbeat with her own family and a few close friends.”

Stephanie Grisham, former White House aid, told Inside Edition, “I would be very, very surprised. I would be very surprised to see her in court. Because it has to do with Stormy Daniels. It’s just not in her to stand by her man for something like that.

“She’s not lending him a whole lot of moral support, and I’m sure she’s still thinking: ‘You got yourself into this mess. I’m certainly not going to walk beside you and support you as you try to get out of it,’” she added.

Grisham recalled the time Melania learned of the affair and was disgusted with Donald. “She always said to me, ‘this is his problem,’” Grisham recalled.

Stormy Daniels’ testimony involved details of her journey into exotic dancing and provided information about her encounter with Trump in July 2006.

NEW YORK, NY – APRIL 16: Adult film actress Stormy Daniels (Stephanie Clifford) exits the United States District Court Southern District of New York for a hearing related to Michael Cohen, President Trump’s longtime personal attorney and confidante, April 16, 2018 in New York City. Cohen and lawyers representing President Trump are asking the court to block Justice Department officials from reading documents and materials related to Cohen’s relationship with President Trump that they believe should be protected by attorney-client privilege. Officials with the FBI, armed with a search warrant, raided Cohen’s office and two private residences last week. (Photo by Drew Angerer/Getty Images)

She has also seemed to have confirmed a detail regarding the former president’s relationship with his wife, Melania.

In response to questioning, Daniels testified that Trump’s bodyguard, Keith Schiller, asked her if she wanted to join Trump for dinner, which she refused. However, upon her publicist’s insisting, she agreed and found herself arriving at the penthouse floor where she encountered Schiller and noticed a partially open door to Trump’s room.

According to her, Trump was wearing satin pajamas and she asked him to change, which she did. What followed was a conversation during which the business mogul asked “very thought-out business questions” about Daniels’ work.

“He asked about the business aspects of it. Are there any unions, do you get residuals, how are people paid. Do you get health insurance. What about testing. Are you worried about STDs?” she recalled on the stand.

“The intention was pretty clear: somebody stripped down to their underwear and is posing for you,” Stormy Daniels told the court.

“He stood up between me and the door. Not in a threatening manner. He didn’t come at me, he didn’t rush at me. Nothing like that. When I exited he was just up on the bed, like this.”

While he was interested into Daniels’ personal life, their discussion about him and his wife Melania, who had recently given birth to their son Barron, was described as “very brief.”

Daniels recalled asking Trump about his wife and commenting of her beauty, and remembered him saying “We don’t sleep in the same room.”

Melania not appearing at court by her husband’s side could be beneficial, according to Berkeley Law professor John Yoo.

“I could see how some jurors would ask where Melania Trump was. Perhaps her presence would show her support for Trump’s story that his fling with Stormy never happened,” he explained.

“But her presence would also buy into the prosecution’s underhanded effort to make the trial about Stormy [Daniels], and not about whether any bookkeeping misdemeanors occurred and whether they concealed some greater crime.”

Melania is also absent from Trump’s presidential rallies across the country, but that doesn’t mean she wouldn’t have an important role later on.

“She’ll definitely have a role, but in terms of what that is, I don’t know,” a source close to the Trump campaign told CNN. “It is her decision on how much or how little she will be campaigning.”

“She is very selective and methodical in what she wants to do and how she presents herself,” another source close to the former president said. “She is very decisive with these things and knows they have a lot of intended and unintended consequences.”

Not being by her husband’s side in the New York courtroom doesn’t mean Melania is not supportive of him.

She doesn’t love being under the spotlight, but does what she loves away from the public. One thing about her is that she’s into fashion.

In the past, Melania has released a jewelry collection, and last week, she promoted USA Memoribilia’s Fortitude Collection, featuring a pair of necklaces.

“The Fortitude Collection celebrates our service members, our Nation, and our freedom,” the USA Memorabilia’s website states. Further, the website adds that each design “can be engraved with names, initials, significant dates, and symbols to create a one-of-a-kind piece of jewelry.”

“Those who purchase a design can also receive a limited-edition digital collectible,” USA Memorabilia writes.

Instagram/MelaniaTrump

When she promoted it on her Instagram, the opinions regarding the collection were different. While some consider the pieces of jewelry “beautiful” and “wonderful,” there were also those who slammed her and accused her of profiting off veterans.

“Zero Trumps have served in the US military, grifter,” one user wrote.

Very cheap items sold at very high prices to people who need to choose between food, medicine, or baubles sold by a billionaire who will never look at them under any other circumstances,” another added.

“SHILLING off of our dead veterans, disgusting. And not a DIME will go to any actual charities. If it did, you guys would take most of the money,” a third stated.

A month ago, Melania Trump introduced her Mother’s Day necklace, which retailed for $245 each. Described as a “customizable necklace designed by Melania Trump to honor all mothers,” each piece included the former first lady’s signature.

I accidentally overheard my wife’s conversation with her friend — Now, I want to leave her

By
Monica Pop
-

Posting under under the “Off My Chest” sub on Reddit, one man sought advice from fellow Redditors about the decision he was about to make after overhearing his wife’s conversation with her friend.

During the past ten years, the man suffered from a severe degenerative disease that lowered the quality of his life to the extent that he was no longer able to make most of the things that made him happy once. In fact, he wasn’t able to walk more than 20 feet or carry anything heavy. As a result, he put his career on hold and spent most of his days at home.

However, the only thing that remained constant was the help he was getting from his wife and the love he was receiving from his son.

Knowing that his wife had a lot on her plate, he often asked her if taking care of him was too much for her, but her answer was always a resounding no. She constantly assured him that she was there for him for whatever he needed.

One day, as he was putting on his shoes and was getting ready to leave the house, he overheard his wife speaking to her friend on the phone. Her words broke his heart.

Among the rest, she confessed that she was tired of being her husband’s babysitter because she was too exhausted herself. What followed was something even more devastating.

“I’d give anything to be able to have sex with a real man again,” his wife said. But she never though about actually doing that because she didn’t want to be accused of cheating on or leaving her sick husband.

“A real man? What does that make me?” the husband painfully reflected.

He said he was aware his wife was getting frustrated with his disease at times, but he had no idea she thought so low of him.

After giving the entire situation a thought, the man decided it would be for the best if he sets his wife free by saying that he was having an affair with someone so that she wouldn’t feel guilty of leaving him.

However, once he shared his story and the decision he made, Redditors advised him not to rush because his wife probably didn’t think what she said but was just venting her frustrations.

“I will also add that the way she was feeling in that moment doesn’t necessarily mean it’s her “true” feelings,” one user wrote, explaining that people do say things they don’t mean in situation of frustration.

“While hurtful, I don’t think she necessarily has been pining away for you to disappear just because she’s venting to her best friend,” someone else wrote.

A third person shared how their mother would often rant about their terminally ill father by saying things similar to what OP’s wife said. “…but in the end, she’s just venting. She loves my father with all her heart…We all vent about our loved ones at some point, but we still love them.”

Eventually, OP wrote that lying about having an affair with another woman would hurt his wife’s feelings but it would set her free without her being judged by others. “She’ll be free from guilt…She will be free…from me,” he painfully asserted.

Man in a coma pictured with his newborn daughter days before he died

George Fenlon, 23, was attacked during a night out in Blackpool, Lancashire, and was left unconscious in hospital for three months. While he fought for his life, his wife, Beth Turner, 23, was pregnant with the couple’s child. She gave birth to a baby daughter two weeks before George passed away.

George never woke up, but his wife wanted their baby girl, Clara Georgia – named after her dad, to have at least one photo with him, so she placed her next to him on the bed.

George’s devastated mother, Melissa, 53, told the Mirror, “Looking back now, I’m not sure how we all got through it, the range of emotions we had to go through was horrendous. Beth wanted Clara to meet George and have a little bit of time with him so she had a C-section and she had a couple of weeks in hospital with him where she saw him everyday.

“It was important that she did that because we’ve got memories, we’ve got pictures. The hospital did a lot, we’ve also got little prints of Clara’s and George’s hands together.”

George suffered the injuries that left him in coma on August 15.

Police was called out to The Strand in Blackpool at around 2am following assault reports. At the time of their arrival, they found George, who was working as a bartender at Revolution Bar, with severe head injuries.

George was rushed to the Royal Preston Hospital and placed on life support, but he succumbed to the injuries on November 22. Cause of death was complications of blunt head trauma.

Recalling the night of the tragic attack, Melissa said, “We were all in shock, we weren’t sure what was happening. It was one of his friends who phoned, he said something had happened but no one was sure what.

“Then we heard George had gone to Royal Preston Hospital and we didn’t know why but when we got more information, we found out he had a serious head injury so Preston was the best place for him.

“His girlfriend was six or seven months pregnant at that time so we were all just in shock and when we saw him it was pretty horrific.”

In her son’s honor, Melissa has organized a charity event called ‘The Fenlon Football Funday’, set for July at Stanley Park in the town. The event will feature a football tournament and activities for children.

“The fun day is for Clara and all of George’s friends, to keep his memory alive. If it’s a success this year, I’m hoping it will be an annual event. It’s just what George was, he was a fun loving guy who loved his football, so it’s what George would have wanted – for everyone to have a nice day.”

Our thoughts and prayers are with George’s family during their time of grief. May he rest in peace.
