It is hardly surprising that Kate Middleton and King Charles are the center of attention for the British public. Well wishes are coming in from all around the world while Kate recovers from the “planned” abdominal surgery and the King is having cancer treatment in London. The public was concerned about how the royal family would be impacted by these health concerns, but the Palace reassured people that Kate was “doing-well” even though they hadn’t disclosed any information about her lengthy hospital stay or surgery.
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle were among those who extended their best wishes and hoped the Princess and the King a swift recovery.
Although their relationship with the other royals appears to be at an all-time low, their outreach to Kate and Charles may be the first step in resolving their differences.
The members of the Firm have been the target of accusations from the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, who have also criticized the Palace for failing to intervene on Meghan’s behalf when she was in need of support and contemplating suicide. During the controversial Oprah interview, Harry and Meghan launched their first accusations against the royal family, accusing a senior royal of doubting the sking color of Archie, who was still pregnant at the time.
The Sussexes gave numerous interviews after moving to the United States, and Harry wrote his book Spare, in which he disclosed secrets and discussed what went on behind closed doors when he was still a working royal.
There has also been turmoil in Meghan and Kate’s relationship.
Both Kate and Meghan were advised not to go to Balmoral when Queen Elizabeth’s health began to deteriorate, but the actual reason was that they didn’t want Meghan there and Kate was just told to stay behind to make things appear more equitable.
“Kate stayed away on purpose, but she really wanted to be there with the Queen in her final moments,” Jobson stated. Kate is completely consumed by that, and her dislike of Meghan has grown.
As per Jobson, “Catherine later admitted to a senior royal that, such was the ill feeling between the two couples, the joint walkabout was one of the hardest things she’d ever had to do.” Kate and William, along with Harry and Meghan, walked beside each other throughout the burial.
The media claims that Harry and Meghan contacted Kate as soon as they heard about her operation from the news.
A source informed the Mirror, “Prince Harry and Meghan have extended support to the King and the Princess of Wales with regards to their health.” “The Duke and Duchess conveyed their concern and well wishes to both parties through various means.”
The source stated, “Meghan has contacted Kate and Charles.” Thus, efforts are being undertaken to make amends.
The insider added that Meghan has been a huge supporter of Harry’s efforts to mend his family’s wrongs. Additionally, Harry “wishes the very best for the royals—Kate included.”
She stated, “It was reported that they sent private messages, which would be the proper course of action.”
She thinks it’s wise for Harry and Meghan to keep their comments about Kate private.
But even though Kate will resume her royal duties around Easter, PR guru Ryan McCormick warns Harry and Meghan might make a grave error if they start talking about the princess in public. According to the Mirror, McCormick advises the Sussexes not talk about Kate Middleton until she has resumed her royal duties.
My Pink Hair Was Banned at Work, So I Started Showing Up With “Terrible Wigs”
Following a job offer, a 29-year-old woman faced a huge dilemma. She was given an ultimatum: conceal her pink hair or seek employment elsewhere. Embracing the challenge, she devised a clever solution to the restriction, sparking widespread attention online.
Emily Benschoter turned to TikTok to share her journey at her new workplace, but with the twist that she can never show her pink hair while she’s on duty. She only found out the fact after she had already been interviewed and offered the position, a front-of-house role in the hospitality industry, because there was no prior contact with her employers in person or over video chat during the hiring process.
Her manager then suggested she wear a wig and that’s when she decided to pick the funniest ones she could find. Her first TikTok video with the first wig went up on July 19, 2023, and it read: «When you have pink hair, but corporate does not approve, so you wear terrible wigs.»
Since then, people have become invested in her wig choices and her clips have been viewed millions of times. «The worse the wig, the better,» she admitted in an interview. «It is a way to open up the conversation with the customers who think it is insane that I have to cover my pink hair.»
In the same interview, Benschoter also took time to explain why she didn’t just simply dye her hair instead. «Dying my hair for a job I work at for 40 hours per week wasn’t an option,» she revealed. «I am a self-expressive person and I feel very confident with pink hair, so I came up with a solution to keep the job and my hair.»
Despite her having fun with the situation, she doesn’t approve of it. «It’s dehumanizing that I can’t be accepted at face value because my hair is a non-traditional color,» she said. «It’s so superficial that my hair color is an obstacle.»
Not surprisingly, this isn’t the first time someone goes viral on social media because of hair trouble. A different woman also went viral on TikTok after a visit to the hairdresser went wrong. She ended up leaving the salon with a disastrous blowout and the before-and-after photos prompted a massive reaction from folks online. See the photos here.
