I agree with this, [....] IG probably has a brief shelf life remaining. As for the success of the Nigerian trip, well, how many celebrities actually visit Nigeria? I suspect not many, since it is considered unsafe at present. So, naturally there will be a good public reception for any that...

The clothing so far seems much too revealing for a country in which the majority is Muslim. I'm surprised there wasn't at least a recommendation as to what constitutes suitable attire.

The peach dress probably got filthy from dragging on the ground, and the fit made her look very boxy. Her hair looked stringy and messy, imo. Not a good look at all.

I know the Japanese state visit to the UK was postponed; has it been rescheduled?

Who is paying for security for the trip? Is it Nigeria? If it is, what is the public response to that?

Perhaps that's true for private citizens, but for the Monarch? Charles must take public feeling into account, just as the late Queen was forced to when Diana died.

The DM is rehashing Princess Beatrice's love life, with emphasis on her relationship with Dashing Dave Clark. I never liked him, and think he treated Beatrice very shabbily. Still, no need to dwell dramatically on how Beatrice was shattered by his rejection. She is obviously very happy in her...

I like the suit (..)

Several news sources have said that Gabriella has moved back into her parents' home at Kensington Palace. Probably for the best, since the press can't confront her there.

I think the jelly spoils the peanut butter sandwich! I never liked the combination.

The neckline of Amalia's dress obscures her necklace. She might as well not be wearing one.

Red is a flattering color for her, but her hair looks straggly.

Why number the jars?

It doesn't seem like a suitable outfit for a sports event, but then, I'm not familiar with polo clothing, maybe that's dressier than the norm. I really don't care for it.

Exactly. It's an esoteric sporting show, and tv is all about the numbers. I can't imagine a show like that would attract a wide audience.
