I never stop being surprised/annoyed/dismayed at the antics of our UK media when it comes to filling column inches with celebrity 'news'. In the latest splurge of rubbish, it concerns the announcement of Prince Harry and Meghan stepping back from official royal duties and basically hiding away somewhere in Canada. This has prompted huge amount of comment - most of which appears to be conjecture; from 'anonymous sources'; 'a friend of..'; as well as complete fabrication.
Whether this sells papers or brings extra viewers is surely unlikely, although the fact that I am moved to write about the writing means it stuck somewhere although I can assure you no money changed hands to arrive at my conclusions.
It has been headlines on the main TV channels for the last few days, and most newspapers have been leading with extravagant headlines regarding their relationship with other royals, their future plans and any other space filling information.
All in all, a load of tosh.
