1 00:00:02,640 --> 00:00:09,160 Speaker 1: From the Newsroom that news still come to you. Hey, 2 00:00:09,160 --> 00:00:12,240 Speaker 1: I'm Bronti Foy. Welcome to the weekend Editions from the Newsroom, 3 00:00:12,240 --> 00:00:14,560 Speaker 1: which is all about the Royals. We're going to go 4 00:00:14,600 --> 00:00:17,160 Speaker 1: behind palace walls to cover the big news of the week, 5 00:00:17,320 --> 00:00:21,439 Speaker 1: including Meghan's major rebrand, new claims that Prince Harry is 6 00:00:21,520 --> 00:00:24,479 Speaker 1: bored by his Californian life, and a new report about 7 00:00:24,480 --> 00:00:27,639 Speaker 1: why Kate and William really skipped the Basters. The first 8 00:00:27,720 --> 00:00:30,480 Speaker 1: up will debrief on the latest with Meghan's career venture. 9 00:00:34,720 --> 00:00:37,560 Speaker 1: Just a year after unveiling her new homewares and lifestyle company, 10 00:00:37,600 --> 00:00:40,960 Speaker 1: American Riviera Orchard, Meghan Marklers popped up on Instagram with 11 00:00:41,000 --> 00:00:44,200 Speaker 1: a rather unexpected announcement. The Duchess Who's about to launch 12 00:00:44,240 --> 00:00:48,080 Speaker 1: her new Netflix series With Love. Meghan has completely rebranded 13 00:00:48,080 --> 00:00:50,680 Speaker 1: the sales arm of the venture, explaining the decision to 14 00:00:50,720 --> 00:00:52,440 Speaker 1: her followers in a lengthy video. 15 00:00:52,960 --> 00:00:54,960 Speaker 2: I had thought, you know what American Revier that sounds 16 00:00:54,960 --> 00:00:57,400 Speaker 2: like such a great name. It's my neighborhood. It's a 17 00:00:57,480 --> 00:01:00,720 Speaker 2: nickname for Santa Barbara, but it limited to things that 18 00:01:00,760 --> 00:01:05,800 Speaker 2: were just manufactured and grown in this area. Then Netflix 19 00:01:05,880 --> 00:01:08,080 Speaker 2: came on, not just as my partner in the show, 20 00:01:08,120 --> 00:01:12,000 Speaker 2: but as my partner in my business, it was huge. 21 00:01:12,160 --> 00:01:15,120 Speaker 2: So I thought about it, and I've been waiting for 22 00:01:15,200 --> 00:01:17,280 Speaker 2: a moment to share a name that I'd secured in 23 00:01:17,319 --> 00:01:20,399 Speaker 2: twenty twenty two, and this is the moment. Now. 24 00:01:20,440 --> 00:01:22,800 Speaker 1: There is some suggestion that this section of her message 25 00:01:22,880 --> 00:01:24,639 Speaker 1: may have been a little dig at the royal family, 26 00:01:24,640 --> 00:01:26,279 Speaker 1: but I'll let you decide. Take a listen. 27 00:01:26,959 --> 00:01:30,000 Speaker 2: It's called as Ever as ever essentially means as it's 28 00:01:30,040 --> 00:01:33,280 Speaker 2: always been. And if you followed me since twenty fourteen 29 00:01:33,440 --> 00:01:35,520 Speaker 2: with the tig, you know I've always loved cooking and 30 00:01:35,520 --> 00:01:37,840 Speaker 2: crafting and gardening. This is what I do and I 31 00:01:37,840 --> 00:01:39,399 Speaker 2: haven't been able to share it with you in the 32 00:01:39,440 --> 00:01:41,480 Speaker 2: same way for the past few years, but now I 33 00:01:41,520 --> 00:01:43,560 Speaker 2: can anyway. 34 00:01:43,640 --> 00:01:45,360 Speaker 1: That new side is set to go live when her 35 00:01:45,360 --> 00:01:48,200 Speaker 1: show premiere is on March four. Moving on, and There's 36 00:01:48,200 --> 00:01:50,440 Speaker 1: been a lot of conflicting reports over the years about 37 00:01:50,440 --> 00:01:52,960 Speaker 1: how Prince Harry feels about living in the US. Some 38 00:01:53,000 --> 00:01:55,639 Speaker 1: say he loves it, others say he misses home. Maybe 39 00:01:55,680 --> 00:01:58,480 Speaker 1: both are true, but either way, the latest reports suggest 40 00:01:58,640 --> 00:02:00,920 Speaker 1: he's a bit bored, scaring in mind that for his 41 00:02:01,120 --> 00:02:03,360 Speaker 1: entire life until he moved there in twenty twenty. His 42 00:02:03,440 --> 00:02:06,480 Speaker 1: plans were tightly controlled and managed by his royal team, 43 00:02:06,720 --> 00:02:09,200 Speaker 1: with his daily schedule basically all laid out for him. 44 00:02:09,680 --> 00:02:12,079 Speaker 1: Royal author Tom Quinn is now alleged that friends of 45 00:02:12,120 --> 00:02:14,400 Speaker 1: the princes claim Harry pretty much has nothing to do 46 00:02:14,480 --> 00:02:17,840 Speaker 1: with himself during the workday. He told the son quote 47 00:02:17,880 --> 00:02:20,240 Speaker 1: friends say he's made a decent stab at helping around 48 00:02:20,240 --> 00:02:23,600 Speaker 1: the Montecito mansion, walking the dog and looking after the children, 49 00:02:23,919 --> 00:02:27,160 Speaker 1: but the truth is he is bored. End quote interesting, 50 00:02:27,200 --> 00:02:30,320 Speaker 1: although it's worth noting Harry himself has publicly said quite 51 00:02:30,320 --> 00:02:33,000 Speaker 1: the opposite about his life in California, saying that it 52 00:02:33,040 --> 00:02:35,960 Speaker 1: affords him far more privacy and freedom for himself and 53 00:02:36,040 --> 00:02:39,079 Speaker 1: his kids. Next up, the real reason why William and 54 00:02:39,160 --> 00:02:47,160 Speaker 1: Kate reportedly skipped the Bafters This week. The Prince and 55 00:02:47,200 --> 00:02:49,960 Speaker 1: Princess of Wales made for two high profile absences from 56 00:02:50,000 --> 00:02:53,040 Speaker 1: this year's Bafter Rewards, which took place in London Monday 57 00:02:53,040 --> 00:02:56,040 Speaker 1: morning Australian time. Prince William has been the president of 58 00:02:56,080 --> 00:02:58,840 Speaker 1: BAFTA for more than a decade, so he usually attends, 59 00:02:58,840 --> 00:03:00,720 Speaker 1: even if it's not with Kate. He went on his 60 00:03:00,760 --> 00:03:02,920 Speaker 1: own last year while she was unwell, and there was 61 00:03:02,960 --> 00:03:06,040 Speaker 1: plenty of hope they'd make a dazzling joint appearance this year, 62 00:03:06,600 --> 00:03:09,480 Speaker 1: but since emerged, the couple and their kids instead jetted 63 00:03:09,520 --> 00:03:12,320 Speaker 1: off to Mystique in the Caribbean for private and luxury 64 00:03:12,360 --> 00:03:15,280 Speaker 1: island vacation. It's one of their favorite spots and honestly, 65 00:03:15,400 --> 00:03:17,360 Speaker 1: given it was two degrees in London the night of 66 00:03:17,400 --> 00:03:20,240 Speaker 1: the Awards and twenty seven and Mystique, can you really 67 00:03:20,240 --> 00:03:22,760 Speaker 1: blame them? Anyway? That's your Royal fix for now. Thanks 68 00:03:22,760 --> 00:03:25,000 Speaker 1: for listening.
