Why I Am Worried For Kate

Happy Saturday!! As you prepare for a hoppy Easter weekend, I wanted to share my thoughts and concerns about what’s happened to Kate over the last several months. In my opinion, it really is a big red flag that we need to take seriously. Unfortunately, I don’t see it stopping. Maybe, coming in waves, but this seems to be a pattern that doesn’t show signs of ending. It’s only ramping up.
Just over a month ago, we shared this in our February 26th newsletter…
We decided to change our newsletter topic for today at the last minute. There’s something happening on social media, especially on X/Twitter, and it’s now creeping into the mainstream media too. Which is what can happen. Things spread, good and bad, things spread. But, we’ve noticed it’s coming to a crescendo, recently.
Ever since Kate’s surgery was announced, there’s been more orchestrated and organized attacks on her via social media. In the sickest way, some are using her illness and surgery as a reason to spread vile lies and conspiracy theories. This week, it seems to be getting worse, right as Meghan is trying to pull the media spotlight to herself. And that’s not a coincidence.
In the ensuing weeks, as we all know, it just got worse. Even after Kate’s heartbreaking video, where she revealed her cancer diagnosis, many doubled down on their attacks. They wanted their slanted views and misplaced aggression to be true. They wanted to wallow in their anger. The truth, the details, did not matter. The debate about what happened and why has been raging all week.
Our newsletter has been documenting the forces at play since the beginning. This is from our March 17th newsletter…
What’s happening, also feels very similar to Endgame’s book switch. Only this time, Meghan and Harry, along with WME, pushed hard enough and long enough, they actually got the public reaction they hoped for with Endgame.
In the heart of all this turmoil directed at Kate, Meghan has soft launched her lifestyle brand, American Riviera Orchard (ARO). I think this was always the goal. Meghan’s team wanted to create some type of crisis situation for Kate and launch her brand then. Endgame did not create that. Her health issues provided an opportunity, and they pushed like hell.
To understand how we got here, we first must take a look back. Some think that Meghan’s ARO soft launch and social media debut is hurried and rushed. I think it’s the opposite. Meghan has been trying to relaunch on social media for a few years now.
I believe the “Meghan” account was first rumored to be hers on social media in 2022. From there, it received several more “whisper campaigns” as being hers, until finally media confirmed it was her last year. (As a side note, notice how that was similar to the ARO social media launch. No official comments, supposed “secret” clues, everything PR’d to look mysterious. It’s always the same stunts and they have gotten tired.) The problem was, very few came. It’s a severe downgrade to go from having several million followers on her old “MeghanMarkle” IG account, to only getting about 150k followers on her “Meghan” IG account. It was a dismal turnout. Finally, they had to disavow the account, kicking some dirt over it, and moving on. ARO’s social media launch is simply an extensive of those years. This one was just the better opportunity. And they had to jump on it right away.
In all of that planning, the goal and need to silence Kate was always there too. Meghan and her team see the media landscape as only having enough room for one of them, Kate or Meghan. They believe pushing Kate down, elevates Meghan. Instead of creating Meghan’s own light, they demand to steal from Kate. It’s an absolutely horrible strategy, but it flows through all their decisions.
Endgame took this to the next level and laid the way for the storm we are now experiencing. The Endgame Danish manuscript switch signaled how desperate Meghan and her team had become. They blame Kate and the royal family for her sinking brand. They thought Endgame would be the downfall of Kate. How wrong they were. Basically, the world turned out and showed up for Kate. No matter how hard the media pushed, people did not believe the character assassination that Omid and Meghan were trying to spread.
So, like with the social media launch, Meghan and her team, watched and waited. Looking for another opportunity. And this time, they would be more prepared and push harder.
Did you know that most of the biggest celebrities who spoke out against Kate, endorsing these sickening conspiracies, are repped by WME? Stephen Colbert, probably the worst, repped by WME.
