Well, you only have to take a look at the artist's collection called "Long Live the Queen" to see that she's not a fan of the BRF. It's a collection of portraits she painted of people who died in "race-related deaths in the UK since the coronation of Elizabeth II in 1953." My take away is that she doesn't like the BRF at all and that she believes that the late Queen was at fault for these deaths. She is a wokie.

Oh I used to love when the queen was still able to be astride her steed for the trooping of the colour sitting side saddle and looking so regal and beautiful in her natural authority and regality and the way she handled her mount with such an incredible ease and grace…it’s amazing how much she truly was such a huge part of my whole life that I kind of took her for granted in as much as it just seemed like she would always be there so that when she was taken the loss was all the more viscerally noticeable by her absence!! She truly was such an incredible woman, regardless of what anyone thought about anything else, you just couldn’t and can’t ever take it away from her the wholehearted and complete total, LIFELONG service that she gave of herself, many times at the expense of her own personal family relationships…she always put her country first, and did not falter even once (that I can ever recall anyway!!) I always remember the fact that the year of her enthronement Maria Callas, who I am absolutely possessed by, debuted at Covent Garden in Norma, 1952!! And during her last performances at Covent Garden as Tosca the queen and the queen mother attended her last performance, 1965…my Lord, that was when they REALLY were doing the whole glamour dressing!! The footage of the queen and her mother both arriving and going their royal box was just so spectacular…sigh…a whole different world and lifetime away. Sorry!! I’ve said too much…I got lost in my own memories. I miss them both 😔

What immediately leaps to the foreground in pictures of the King is the smiles and the laughter... the joy on everyone's faces. His sincerity is evident... and it is reflected by the people he interacts with. I have become a fan. Greetings from Switzerland.

Hi River, another great video..thank you. I was invited to a Garden party a few years ago at Holyrood Palace in Edinburgh, and it was utterly lovely. Scotland's weather was kind to us on the day I attended, with not a midge in sight, and a truly magical setting. The garden at Holyrood made the event feel intimate under the imposing Salisbury Crags and even though there were thousands of attendees it was all very pleasant with a lovely buzz of excitement. We all managed to get a glimpse of the late Queen and Prince Philip, listened to lovely music, drank Elderflower cordial with lots of pretty things in it, ate delicate sandwiches etc and had a thoroughly beautiful afternoon. My lasting memory is of the Company of Archers who protect the Monarch, the genteel civility of the tradition of giving something of enjoyment to so many people, and of the gorgeous setting on a truly gorgeous afternoon... I love the heart of our country so much, its traditions and gentleness that remain steadfast, will hopefully never be dulled by the changes happening outwardly. Our core is mirrored in these events so whatever is flung at us as a Nation, and however people might try to dismantle and shame us, we know who we are, and our worth. Love your channel 😍

Was the Portrait commissioned by Methane markle per chance..... It's blinking awful

I attended a Buckingham Palace Garden Party in 2010. I was allowed to take one other person. I had the immense fortune to see her dear Majesty Queen Elizabeth, but did not get close enough to meet her. The Royals and entourage sat within their own smaller enclosure to take tea. I along with others had tea in a marquee - beautiful cakes and scones I must say. Towards the end we lined up for the Queen to walk along and wave to us. It was a wonderful occasion, never to be forgotten.

Unfortunately, Princess Catherine's painting looks like a school poster, meant to advertise some student activity. I don't know how anyone could think it'[s acceptible.

The portrait is absolutely S .... ! No emperor new clothes syndrome its just s.... 🤢

Speaking as an artist. Expression is wonderful but in a portrait I think at the very least there should be the essence of your subject at the very least. I personally don’t see strength I see a timidity to her that I don’t see in Catherine.

Th Duke of Edinburgh's trip to Scotland reminds me of some of the scenery in Newfoundland, Canada where my paternal grandmother Diana Smith was born & raised during the British occupation. She was of English and Scottish descent.

I live in Scotland, and I will vote for ANY party that will rid us of the evil and destructive SNP.

They care little for the people of Scotland and may even be corrupt. Independence would not have helped us through a pandemic and that’s from an almost lifelong supporter. I will never ever vote for them again. They have wrecked my beautiful small country! 😢

So sorry to the artist, but I think this rendition of the beautiful Catherine is totally off the mark. Her own mother won’t see any resemblance to the child she gave birth to! 🌷

Very glad to have been a guest at the Palace garden party as wife of a military officer. This was whilst the Queen Mother was also present. Enjoyed the band playing and the jolly ladies in the tea tent. At that time the toilets were hidden behind the bandstand and had purple toilet paper! It was very hard to see the Queen due to her short stature but we caught glimpses of her and her husband. We took the opportunity to walk around the gardens and see the flamingoes on the lake. Taking a shortcut behind the VIP tea tent we encountered the Queen Mother accompanied by two gentlemen in waiting - I did my best to curtesy whilst avoiding some tree roots! It was a lovely day and a special memory.

Heather from Australia here. My husband and I attended a garden party way back. My husband stood next to a Beefeater and they had a great conversation about whiskey. Prince Charles came along and told my husband to get his feet behind the line. We weren’t sure if he was joking or not. Princess Diana then walked past and I wished her a happy 30th birthday. She replied “the least said about that the better”. I don’t think she was joking. It was a lovely day.

Just love the cousins coming out to support William at the garden party! More please!

I agree with you, Bullirish, King Charles II portrait is ART, The Princess of Wales’ is a statement of some kind--Disrespect for the Monarchy mixed with envy of the Princess? Hatred of England mixed with envy of the Princess? Disdain for England and the Monarchy mixed with envy of the Princess? This portrait may affect the artist’s reputation; who will want her to paint another one?

I'M SORRY BUT THE NEW PORTRAIT OF CATHERINE HAS NO LIFE TO IT SHE IS A EXTRAORDINARY WOMAN OF CLASS, WISDOM AND GREAT BEAUTY . SHE IS SUCH A PERSONALITY ALWAYS FULL OF JOY, I SEE NOTHING OF CATHERINE HERE. O's G

You should see Ralph Heimans’ portraits of royalty. He’s a Sydneysider originally who painted the late Queen in the Coronation Theatre of Westminster Abbey. Now that man actually learned to draw and to paint, imagine! He can actually draw and paint! See the paintings for yourself online they are incredible.

The portrait has Meghan’s jawline, and Meghan’s waistline. I understand trying to understand the artist’s interpretation but I still don’t like it.

The first time I saw the image I thought they were portraying Queen Mary of Denmark. On second look it also looks like an amalgamation of Catherine and Meghan. Either way, Hannah Urzo did not do a very good likeness of Catherine. Tatler should have done better. I disagree with River - in that I believe a portrait should be realistic and recognizable. The only way you’d know it was Catherine was the headline.

As an artist I commented on the King's portrait and loved it. But I'm sorry no matter how hard I try I can't find it in my heart to like Princess Catherine portrait. If I'd been commissioned to do portrait and handed over something like that, I wouldn't have got paid.

USA here and I so agree with you. I love Nigel and wish him back in the political arena soon.

The POW painting truly looks like a junior high art project from a child practicing how to paint people. It obviously looks nothing like Catherine and I am surprised it was unveiled as some kind of true art work. For an adult to paint this and share with the world, I would be embarrassed personally.

Absolutely LOVE that Necklace ❤ 🙂
