Sad news about Brad Pitt – The announcement was made by the actor himself

0

Actor and producer Brad Pitt shared some devastating news with his fans recently. The Fight Club star spoke to QG and revealed he’s been struggling to recognize people’s faces, a condition medically known as prosopagnosia or “face blindness.”

With a worrying tone in his voice, the famous Hollywood star revealed that he hasn’t yet been officially diagnosed with the condition, but he is certain he has it.

He said that he feels fearful because he believes his inability to recognize faces has led people to believe he’s “remote and aloof, inaccessible, self-absorbed.” Pitt added that he wanted to meet other people having this condition.

“Nobody believes me,” Pitt was reported to have told the reporter, and it’s not hard to understand why.

Besides the fact that most people have never heard of “face blindness,” this condition is real and presents a real challenge to those who are forced to live with it.

According to the National Institute of Health, prosopagnosia is a neurological disorder that can cause people to have difficulty recognizing even family members or friends. According to research, it can affect 1 in 50 people.

The National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Strokes states that there is no connection between “face blindness” and memory loss, vision problems, or learning impairment.

In an article for the New York Times, Dani Blum speaks of the signs, the causes, and the remedies of the disorder, writing that “It is not the same as forgetting or occasionally having trouble finding the correct word,” adding that the severity differs from person to person.

Further, this condition may lead to chronic anxiety or depression due to the loneliness and fear that are frequently associated with it.

“Navigating basic social relationships with prosopagnosia can become difficult,” Blum writes.

The causes are frequently related to stoke, brain trauma, or simply genetic predisposition. However, those who have it don’t seem to have any visible structural abnormality in the brain and that is why doctors are uncertain how to treat it properly. Some treatments that help people with the condition put on focus on trying to come up with different ways to recognize people beyond just their facial features. 

We hope Brad Pitt would receive the appropriate help to keep his condition under control as much as that is a possibility.

She puts a wet towel on the window every night, you will do the same after reading this

During the summer, especially when the temperatures are extremely high, we often experience troubles sleeping. Most people try to solve this issue by purchasing an air conditioner, but since this can be a rather expensive option, we provide you with some tips and trips to keep yourself cool during the hot days that follow.

Chilled Pillow: Wrap a plastic bag around your pillow and place it in the fridge during the day. This may seem unconventional, but it effectively cools the pillow without getting it wet. When it’s time to sleep, place the cool pillow under your covers or use it as you usually do.

A Wet Towel on the Window: If you want to lower the room temperature, hang a wet or cool towel on the window.Believe it or not, this makeshift air conditioner works wonders during hot nights.

Ventilator Ice Cubes: Before bedtime, cool down your room by placing a plate of ice cubes in front of the ventilator. This may sound like a simple hack but it effectively lowers the temperature.

Eliminate Heat Sources: If you struggle to keep your room cool during the summer, remove any electronic devices that generate excess heat. This refers especially to devices charging, as they emit unnecessary heat and raise the room temperature.

Cold bath tub for your feet: Soak your feet in a cold bath before bed to not only cool off but also induce sleep. Cooling your feet prompts improved circulation, leading to relaxation and a calming effect on the entire body.

Wet Socks: Refresh yourself on hot nights by wearing socks that had previously been placed in the freezer. When they get cold enough put them on for a good night sleep.

    Following the sad passing of Kelly Preston, John Travolta has dedicated his life to taking care of their children

    0

    John Travolta has been through so much throughout his life. Adored by many not only for his iconic roles, like that of greaser Danny Zuko among the rest, but also because of his nature and devotion as both a parent and a husband, Travolta is still going strong.

    In July of 2020, his wife of 28 years, Kelly Preston, lost her life after battling breast cancer for two years. She was 57 years old. Ever since this tragedy, Travolta is doing his best to stay positive because of their two children, daughter Ella and son Benjamin.

    Before losing his beloved wife, the Travolta family suffered another tragedy when he and Kelly lost their 16-year-old son Jett in January 2009 after suffering a seizure.

    While on holiday in the Bahamas, Jett suffered a seizure and passed away. His parents were heartbroken. Back then, Travolta spoke about the loss to US Weekly and said: “It’s the worst thing that’s ever happened in my life. The truth is, I didn’t know if I was going to make it.”

    When Kelly died, a representative of the family shared the devastating news with People, writing: “Choosing to keep her fight private, she had been undergoing medical treatment for some time, supported by her closest family and friends.”

    “She was a bright, beautiful and loving soul who cared deeply about others and who brought life to everything she touched. Her family asks for your understanding of their need for privacy at this time.”

    Preston chose to keep her breast cancer diagnosis a secret. Her co-star in her last film, Off the Rails, Sally Phillips, disclosed on the British talk show “Loose Women” that they were unaware of it during filming. Sally elaborated that film stars often keep health issues private due to concerns regarding movie insurance and future job opportunities.

    She noted, “That’s what people do—they go through it on their own because of worries about insurance for the film, and working again afterward.” Sally also highlighted similar instances, such as Chadwick Boseman and Helen McCrory, who also opted not to publicly disclose their health struggles.

    Travolta also spoke of his loss and wrote on Instagram: “My family and I will forever be grateful to her doctors and nurses at MD Anderson Cancer Center, all the medical centers that have helped, as well as her many friends and loved ones who have been by her side. Kelly’s love and life will always be remembered.” He took the time to thank everyone who supported him during the tough times for the family.

    For his first birthday without Kelly by his side, his children helped him with the grief he still has in his heart. Ella, who is following into her parents’ footsteps and is making a career in film, has posted a touching tribute for Travolta whom she described as “the most incredible man I have ever known.”

    “You are not only the best Dad ever, but you are also my best friend. Thank you for raising us, helping us and loving us and thank you for all of the good you do every day. The world is so lucky to have you and so are we. I love you Daddy. I had the best time celebrating your birthday with you yesterday,” Ella wrote.

    On what would have been Kelly’s 59th birthday, Travolta took to Instagram to pay tribute to his beloved late wife by sharing a photo of her along with the caption, “Happy Birthday Kelly. We miss and love you very much.”

    Ella, who misses her mom badly, also shared a touching message. “Happy Birthday Mama, I love and miss you so much,” she wrote.

    A post shared by John Travolta (@johntravolta)

    After the loss he suffered, some of Travolta’s friends allegedly tried to help him get him back on the dating scene, but it looks like the actor is still grieving and isn’t quite ready to move on.

    “John’s had no shortage of friends wanting to set him up and there are a lot of women who would love to go out with him,” an insider told OK! Magazine.

    “John is flattered, but he just isn’t interested.

    “No one wants to push him because they understand he’s torn between opening himself up to love again and staying single and being the best father he can be. Until John can figure things out, everyone is giving him the space he needs.”

    Instagram/Johntravolta

    During an appearance on Kevin Heart’s talk show, Heart to Heart, Travolta shared the conversation he had with son Benjamin after his mother’s passing.

    “[Ben] said to me once, ‘Because mom passed away, I’m afraid you’re going to,’” Travolta recalled. “I said, ‘Well, it’s a very different thing.’ And I went through the differences about my longevity and her limited life.”

    “I said, ‘But you know, Ben, you always love the truth and I’m going to tell you the truth about life. Nobody knows when they’re gonna go or when they’re going to stay,’” he continued.

    “I said, ‘Your brother [Jett] left at 16. Too young. Your mother left at 57. That was too young. But who’s to say?’ I said, ‘I could die tomorrow. You could. Anybody can. So let’s look at it that it’s a part of life. You don’t know exactly. You just do your best at trying to live the longest you can.’”

    While keeping a low profile, John Travolta talked about how he’s dealing with grief in an interview with Esquire Mexico.

    “I’ve learned that mourning, grieving, is a personal thing. It’s individual, and only your own journey can heal you,” Travolta shared with the magazine. “It’s different for each person. The best thing you can do to help someone who is grieving is to let them go through it and not mix it with your own. That’s what I’ve learned.”

    Travolta is extremely proud of his two children, whom he’s very close with.

    Over the years, he has never missed a chance to share his love for his children publicly by reminding them how important they are for him. The beautiful thing is that Ella and Benjamin do the same.

    Ella, who followed into her famous parents’ footsteps and is an actress herself, describes her dad as the most important person in her life and her role model.

    Ella is known for the movies Old Dogs (2009) and The Poison Rose (2019). “Since I was very little, I’ve loved performing, singing, dancing and putting on shows at home for my family and friends,” she told People.

    On Father’s Day, the Saturday Night Fever star shared his feelings about being a dad, saying, “It’s a privilege to be a father. I love you, my babies. Happy Father’s Day to everyone,” along with photos of his children.

    Prince Harry makes royal history as a photo of his official document is revealed

    0

    Prince Harry has no intentions of returning to Britain in the near future, and a recent document confirming his country of residence is enough indicator of that.

    The Duke of Sussex moved to the States together with his wife, Meghan Markle, and son Archie, some four years ago, when they stepped down from their royal duties and left Britain behind in order to stay away from the British media and lead a quieter life.

    This, however, didn’t turn out to be the case because both Harry and Meghan used every opportunity to be under the spotlight whether through interviews, their Netflix documentary, or Harry’s book Spare.

    Now, the prince has made a decision to formally relocate his residence to the United States, making a historic move.

    He finalized this decision through a newly filed document with Companies House, a crucial requirement for his eco-tourism nonprofit, Travalyst. The document shows a change effective from June 29, 2023, which coincides with the date of Buckingham Palace’s announcement that Prince Harry and his wife were leaving Frogmore Cottage, which underscored their transition away from the UK.

    At the time, a spokesperson for the couple said: “We can confirm the Duke and Duchess of Sussex have been requested to vacate their residence at Frogmore Cottage.”

    During the four years he’s been residing in California, Harry has paid visit to his family on several occasions and he’s expected to return to Britain next month to celebrate a decade of the Invictus Games with a commemorative service at St Paul’s Cathedral.

    Harry has raised concerns for his safety when home in Britain because he lacks security, something he was denied when he stopped being a working royal. He tried to get his right for security back by initiating legal proceedings against the Home Office after a decision by the Executive Committee for the Protection of Royalty and Public Figures (Ravec) in February 2020 to alter the level of state-funded security he would receive during visits to the UK.

    Back in 2022, the Duke’s legal team argued: “The U.K. will always be Prince Harry’s home and a country he wants his wife and children to be safe in.

    “With the lack of police protection, comes too great a personal risk. Prince Harry hopes that his petition-after close to two years of pleas for security in the U.K.-will resolve this situation.”

    Speaking to NBC, Harry expressed his sense of belonging in the United States.

     “Home for me, now, for the time being, is in the States.

    “And it really feels that way, as well. We’ve been welcomed with open arms and have got such a great community up in Santa Barbara.”

    Harry and Meghan are able to maintain their lifestyle thanks to the individual as well as the joint projects they have undertaken. In addition to this, Harry has received a significant amount of inheritance from his family, including his great-grandmother, the Queen Mother, Elizabeth Bowes-Lyon, as well as his late mother, Princess Diana.

    As per reports, the Queen Mother amassed a fortune estimated at £70 million, comprising valuable art pieces and various assets. While she bequeathed this wealth to her late daughter, Queen Elizabeth III, the Queen Mother allocated two-thirds of her riches into a trust fund established for her great-grandchildren. The brothers have also received £20 million from their mother, from savvy investments of funds.

    While Prince Harry’s estimated personal net worth is about £48 million, Meghan has earned £3.5 million from her acting career.

    Of course, Harry’s bestselling memoir Spare added to the couple’s fortune.

    Bestselling author Richard Osman spoke of Harry’s memoir and said it was unprecedented success. “It’s impossible to overestimate how much money that has made,” Richard stated while speaking on his podcast The Rest Is Entertainment.

    Harry also earned on the financial mechanics behind such a publication. “I reckon he’s made $26, $27million. So he’s earned out an advance of $20million on the hardback of his first book alone. Forget rights to other things and audiobooks and what have you. He has earned that out already,” Richard added, emphasizing the lucrative nature of the U.S. book market. “In America, the royalties are absolutely insane […] So he has made a huge amount of money out of that book.”

    Spare was the best selling book of 2023 in Britain earning Harry nominations at the British Book Awards.

    Harry’s change of residence signifies a crucial life choice.

    Doctors thought I had a sinus infection – it was ultra-rare cancer

    0

    Annika, a 28-year-old woman from California, shared her harrowing experience of losing her eye after doctors fought to save her life following a devastating cancer diagnosis.

    Namely, this woman was shocked to learn she had a rare form of cancer, one that affects fewer than one in a million people. Unfortunately, this sinus cancer led to the removal of her right eye.

    Initially, the ‘golf ball-sized tumor’ that spread all over her face, was mistaken for a sinus infection.

    She first felt discomfort in the inner corner of her right eye one morning in 2023. Throughout the day, the excruciating pain only intensified, leading to significant swelling around her eye.

    Fearing for her health, she turned to medical professionals for help. Once at the hospital, doctors did a CT scan and determined the pain Annika felt was a result of inflammation associated with sinus issues, likely an infection.

    In the TikTok video she shared, Annika recalled the day she first experienced pain and said, “My face started to really, really hurt on the right side.”

    Doctors prescribed Annika with some medicine for treating sinus infection and she felt a bit better for a week, but then the pain returned with even greater intensity. The swelling appeared again and it wasn’t until her second visit to the emergency room that doctors spotted the tumor next to her eye which wasn’t there three weeks before.

    Annika was diagnosed with stage four sinonasal carcinoma SMARCB1, which had spread to her face, lungs, and lymph nodes. At the time, she was 27.

    The forms of cancer that affect the sinuses are rare but extremely aggressive. According to the National Institutes of Health (NIH), this particular cancer constitutes only one percent of all head and neck cancers, with fewer than 200 reported cases in the medical literature. Symptoms include nasal obstructions, headaches, protrusion of the eyeball, and nosebleeds. 

    Annika stared chemo treatments almost immediately. When doctors saw a little improvement after nine weeks of therapy, she had undergone a surgery.

    “They also had to take surrounding tissue, which included my right eye,” she explained in one of her TikTok video. 

    “So what you see now is essentially a piece of my thigh kind of filling that gap.

    “I have been told that it will kind of go down, but it’s also a different color because my thigh was a lot tanner.”

    At the time being, this brave woman is on experimental treatment plan that includes chemotherapy and immunotherapy to slow the spread of the cancer.

    Speaking of her disease and the prognosis, Annika said, “I know it’s not great.

    “I know when you read about my cancer it’s “rare, aggressive, poor prognosis,” but no doctor has sat me down and been like “This is how long you have to live.'”

    Annika remains hopeful, and we pray she finds the strength to battle the awful disease and end up a winner.

    Woman snaps photo running through rainforest – later spots haunting detail in the bushes

    0

    The internet is like a vast, endless gallery of the strange and unexplained, but it’s also a hotbed for hoaxes and misunderstandings. However, every now and then, we stumble upon images that defy easy explanation and leave us wondering. Even if we approach such images with a healthy dose of skepticism, it is the mystery aspect and the possibility of the unknown that keep us intrigued.

    Runner Kay Borleis shared a photo of herself while on a 100-mile run through the Hawaiian rainforest, but it wasn’t until later that she spotted something very strange on the image. In fact, that haunting detail defies logic.

    Sharing the story behind the image in question, Kay explained that she embarked upon the Hawaiian Ultra Running Team’s Trail 100-Mile Endurance Run back in 2019 – a race that sees competitors run five laps of a 20-mile loop through dense rainforest.

    She was accompanied by her friend Cassie, who was working as a pacer and took the photos of the duo.

    One of the images showed Kay making her way along a muddy trail in the heart of the jungle. But neither she nor her friends noticed anything unusual that day until they saw the photos again.

    Credit / Reddit – KayBorleis

    “My pacer took this photo. Notice the figure in the frame to the left of my head. We never saw anyone passing us and there were no statues along the trail.

    “It is NOT photoshopped or made. This is legit.”

    Although Kay insists there was no one present there besides her and Cassie, the image shows the presence of a dark figure, dressed in ragged garb, that seems to be looking straight at Kay.

    Credit / Reddit – KayBorleis

    Kay provided further explanation.  “According to legend, there are ghosts of Hawaiian warriors that roam the island and they’re called Night Marchers, she wrote.”

    “They are, ‘murderous shades, demons, revenants that haunt the island. They are the rabid galvanized specters of ancient Hawaiian fighters, heroes, and warriors’.

    “Upon further research, we found out that, ‘ancient Hawaiian tenets assert that any mortal gazing upon or being viewed in defiance to the marchers will die horribly and violently. Some people declare that if the mortal lies still, down on the ground, prostrated to the marchers they are giving proper respect, fear, and reverence to the Night Marchers; and they will be forgiven and spared.’”

    “Luckily, we did not see the supposed Night Marcher.”

    What do you think of this? Do you believe this photo is genuine?

    Taylor Swift: Beautiful without makeup

    0

    Pop sensation Taylor Swift, who has recently released her 11th studio album The Tortured Poets Department which has already broken multiple records, doesn’t rely on glamour to showcase her real beauty.

    When she appears on the red carpet, her look is always glamorous, but the Pennsylvania-born singer is not afraid to occasionally share makeup-free photos of herself.

    Since her debut single Tim McGraw found its way on the Billboard charts in 2006, the pop star has experimented with a variety of makeup styles. From dark smokey eyes to blue eyeshadow, long lashes, peachy tones, and cat eyes described as “sharp enough to kill a man,” Taylor Swift, who is known for her red lipstick, has showcased diverse looks over the years.

    However, besides being a glamour queen, there are times when she feels the urge to “reveal” her real self. Swift doesn’t mind showing her candid side or discuss her insecurities and provide insight into her everyday life away from the cameras. During her Miss Americana documentary, Swift shared some of her private struggles and vulnerabilities.

    “I didn’t know if I was going to feel comfortable with talking about body image and talking about the stuff I’ve gone through in terms of how unhealthy that’s been for me — my relationship with food and all that over the years,” Swift told Variety of the documentary in January 2020.

    On January 22, 2019, the singer posted what appeared to be a makeup-free photo. Posing beside her “Cats” character name, Bombalurina, she fittingly captioned the snapshot with a simple “Meow.” Swift’s selfie exuded a playful vibe, accentuated by her natural look.

    Back in 2022, when she announced the release of her then album, Swift also appeared makeup free. She had her hair braided in a bun as she gazed into the distance, dressed in a fairytale-inspired ensemble.

    “Midnight, what a storied and fabled hour… On this sparkling evening, I’ll be releasing my twist on a fairytale we all know,” the caption of the promotional post read.

    This image, which attracted the attention of many, showed Swift’s natural beauty as well as internal brilliance, especially in light of the success of her Midnights album.

    When Swift posed without any makeup on while wearing a dark, snug-looking turtleneck, the post humorously noted, “Here we can observe an Australian swiftlet in her natural habitat, a turtleneck.”

    She walked around an Australian nature landscape in her monochromatic black outfit in the post’s second and third photos.

    Thought this looked like a simple photo, many of her fans agreed that it showed her down-to-Earth personality.

    In another photo, out of the many, on which she goes makeup free, Swift poses with fellow songwriter Jack Antonoff, wearing a relatively casual outfit and holding up a drink. “Anti hero but make it acoustic,” the caption read.

    Amid the COVID-19 lockdown, when nearly every avid social media user participated in the trend of posting at least one no-makeup selfie from the comfort of their homes, often accompanied by captions expressing boredom, Swift did the same. With her iconic blond curls slightly grazing her clavicle, she looked straight into the camera, writing, “Not a lot going on at the moment.” While the caption echoed the sentiments of the lockdown experience, fans were stunned by how effortlessly perfect Swift appeared without makeup.

    Regardless of whether she’s adorned in glamorous attire or sporting her natural look, Taylor Swift remains a captivating beauty.

    Meghan Markle ‘terrified’ over big decision for Archie and Lilibet – they might blame her in the future, royal expert claims

    0

    Royal offspring have always captivated the attention of the media and the public. And no, this trend didn’t start with Prince George and his siblings or with the children of the Sussexes, but it has always been like that.

    When William and Harry were children themselves, they were under the spotlight and the media followed their every move with great attention.

    However, not all children born into royalty receive the same amount of attention, and this is not due to the lack of interest by the media for them, but because their parents made a decision to shield them from the public.

    Mark Metcalfe/Getty Images

    Following the Sussexes’ departure from the royal family and them stepping down from the royal duties and settling in sunny California, their two children, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet, were removed from the public sphere. Of course, had their parents decided to continue living in Britain, this wouldn’t be the case.

    However, while Harry and Meghan navigated their transition to a more private lifestyle, their numerous interviews and Harry’s book, Spare, have kept them in the spotlight.

    Harry and Meghan have been adamant about protecting their children’s privacy, limiting access to photographs, but the public was still able to take a glimpse of the young prince and princess when the two were featured in the Netfix documentary about Harry and Meghan released in December 2022.

    Netflix

    Back in 2023, the children, Lilibet and Archie, received royal titles and became a Prince and a Princess.

    “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.

    The Royal Family’s website was updated accordingly. Archie and Lilibet are now listed as Prince Archie of Sussex and Princess Lilibet of Sussex. When it was updated, it was the first time their royal titles have been used publicly. 

    Mirror reported that Harry and Meghan allegedly didn’t want to deprive their children of their rightful titles. Instead, they desire for Archie and Lilibet to have the autonomy to choose whether to retain or relinquish their titles as they grow older.

    It’s anticipated that the Sussex children will primarily use their royal titles on rare occasions.

    Many have been left puzzled as to why Archie and Lilibet got to receive the titles of Prince and Princess, but the explanation is in fact a very simple one.

    Netflix

    In 1917, George V created the rules that are still in place today. He decided that the children of the sons of any Sovereign “shall have and at all times hold and enjoy the style title or attribute of Royal Highness with their titular dignity of Prince or Princess prefixed to their respective Christian names or with their other titles of honor.” So, when the Queen passed and King Charles became the monarch, Archie and Lilibet became eligible for their own royal titles. 

    “It wasn’t clear if they would use them or not since Harry and Meghan have left the family as working royals and headed to the States,” TalkTV Royal Editor Sarah Hewson told Sky. “We understand discussions took place after the Queen’s funeral and it has been agreed that they will be known formally as prince and princess – although Harry and Meghan won’t be using it in everyday life.”

    According to royal author Angela Levin, “It will take a long time for little Lilibet to realize the extent of the burden her parents have placed on her young shoulders.”

    She argued that by giving their daughter a princess title, Harry and Meghan have now “glued her to the British Royal Family,” the same establishment they have been critical of during the recent years.

    “Why on earth would you want your daughter to experience such anguish?” the royal expert said. “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,” Levin concluded.

    Since Harry and Meghan have only visited Britain during few occasions since stepping down from their royal duties, most Britons believe their children don’t deserve the royal titles. According to a YouGov poll published in March 2023, 51% of respondents said Archie and Lilibet shouldn’t have royal titles, while 25% thought they should.

    In a matter of weeks, it’s speculated that Harry and Meghan will visit London to attend the Invictus Games 10th Anniversary Service at St. Paul’s Cathedral.

    According to reports, they intended to bring their children along, and there have even been assertions that William and Kate have invited them to bring their children, partly to allow their UK cousins, Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis, to spend time together.

    Meghan, however, was said to have rejected the offer because she’s afraid for her children’s safety.

    “There is no way Meghan would bring the children to the UK,” royal expert and author Tom Quinn told the Mirror in early April.

    Mat Hayward/FilmMagic

    “William and Kate have suggested that Meghan and Harry bring the children and that the two couples and their families try to make up, but the suggestion is not leading anywhere so far.”

    A source told OK! Magazine that Meghan fears for her children’s safety if returning.

    “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,” the source said.

    Prince Harry, who is an avid enthusiast of polo, has been frequently seen engaging in polo matches at the Santa Barbara Polo Club, as well as participating in numerous charity polo events. Just last weekend, he showcased his skills by playing on the Royal Salute Sentebale Team during a charity polo match in Wellington, Florida.

    One of his close friend, Nacho Figueras, who also competed in the polo match, shared his aspirations for Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet to one day follow in their father’s footsteps and take up polo.

    “I really hope so, I hope that Archie and Lili get to love horses as much as he does,” Figueras told Hello!

    “There’s something about the outside of a horse that’s great for the inside of a human. Hopefully, that love and passion will be transmitted. I know my kids love it. and they love to play. It would be a dream that one day we all get to play polo together.”

    Since they moved to the States, Harry and Meghan’s life changed a great deal compared to the life they led in Britain. With their decision to leave Harry’s family behind, their children were left with no close relatives close by. This decision also affected their children’s future.

    Royal expert Tom Quinn now claims that Meghan fears that both Archie and Lilibet will “blame her for depriving them” of the chance of becoming working royals.

    “On the other hand, we should always remember that phrase – ‘never say never,’ because it will come back to haunt you when you change your mind, especially if you are a public figure like Meghan,” Quinn told the Mirror.

    “A friend of the couple – one of Meghan’s few aristocratic friends from her time in the UK – told me Meghan does miss some aspects of life in the UK and worries that her children will blame her if they never get to see their cousins and feel as adults that they have been deprived of what might have been a fun and meaningful existence in the UK as working royals.”

    Only time will tell if Archie and Lilibet harbor any inclination towards royal life, a path their parents chose to diverge from.
