If he had "moved" at a time of non lockdown, I think he would have enjoyed it.......for a bit. There's a lot of pluses to living here. Doesn't mean it's by any way better, of course. I believe there's positives to both sides of the pond.
I don't want to belittle your love for your country and I am sure for someone who grew up in California it is different, but L.A. is a VERY strange place for people who grew up in Europe.
Not a single soul I met there was what they seemed to be. I never met a valet, waitress, sales person, food vendor, etc. who was a valet, waitress or sales person. They all claimed with the second sentence they uttered, to be an actor/actress. It went like this: 'Good evening, I am XXX, your waitress for tonight. Actually I am an actress, I only wait on tables till my breakthrough as an actress. Do you need a menue?' Then they'd try to find out if you were someone in showbiz and if not the service went to crap.
The whole place is pretend and fake. Fake smiles, fake teeth, face lifts, botox, anabolica enhanced muscles, fake riches.
For someone used to see antiques the interiors of the so called mansions are repulsively vulgar. The cars are too big, the houses scream look at me...
There are two Germans I know personally who loved it there. They were born lower class and made it big in L.A. For a person coming from wealth it is a bit different. Everything that says I am wealthy in L.A. is what we grew up to see as over the top and vulgar. And being dismissed just because you can't further a virtual strangers career in show biz is a totally peculiar experience. I can't see how someone who grew up in a palace, has no connections in show biz and no friends of their own could feel at home in L.A.

Tbh I think Charles has quite a bachelor life and Camilla is a granny in her spare time. They’re rich and do seem to enjoy the time they do spend together.This
The separate homes is more to do with family, as in CPB's kids and grandkids might love chas to bits but might feel somewhat inhibited around him. He can be grumpy at times. So it's nice that her family can visit and be themselves in her home.
I think chas and cam are in that comfy older person kind of love where they adore each other without needing to spend 24/7 in each other's company.
Hmm some more murky me pics
From Royalty to Reality TV!
When did this revelation occur?The reason he proposed so fast was because he finally found someone who wanted exactly the same life that he wanted.
What did he want?When they were on holiday in [A]. He told her that he did not want the highly scheduled and ceremonial life that was expected of him in [Country E].
Well, he has always loved A. What was her reaction?He told her that what he really wanted was to continue the work of his mother. He wanted a life where he could spend part of the year in [E] and part of the year in [A] because that is where he felt the most happy and relaxed and could do the most good.
He believed her?She told him that after spending time in [A] with him, she had grown to love it as much as he did. She said it would be a dream for her to give up her career and move to [A] with him and spend their lives together in [A] and then come back to [E] to be with his friends and family.
So he proposed and they got married and had a baby.Absolutely! None of his past girlfriends wanted to move to [A]. He was chuffed to have finally found someone who understood him and wanted exactly the same life. She was perfect.
Which of them came up with the plan to move to C and then U?She told him that she still loved [A] but she had a lot of health and safety concerns about raising their child there. She also told him that his family in [E] made her very uncomfortable and that she feared their child would also be made to feel unwelcome and uncomfortable in that environment. She cried. He found that very distressing. He felt like she had sacrificed so much to be with him.
Let’s recap.I don’t know. He got into several rows with his family and his friends, made all sorts of ridiculous accusations, and then stopped communicating.
This is 100% how I saw this.I wonder who this is?
The Switcheroo - BLIND GOSSIP
[Blind Gossip] Some people think that this actress and her high-profile husband planned their current living situation from the beginning. Well, we have some insight into how all of this actually went down! Basically the plan started out as one thing… but was twisted into something very, very...blindgossip.com
Congratulations Nothing better than being a grandparentI thought you witches might like to know that Aunty has become a grandad. To lose both your youthful beauty and gender in one go is a bit of a shock but I will be the kind of Granny with a clanking handbag full of bottles and betting slips; and you will be spared my ramblings for a bit.
Its amazing how many couples seem to have had the big dumb row, as me and Mrs Aunty call it, today. My cousin has just confessed that shes been such a bleep even her teenage kids wont speak to her (you go girl). As we are both quite rowy (Mrs Aunty once left me wearing the Sag Aloo at some Bengali joint on Brick Lane and took all the credit cards and money with her) One of us always starts laughing at the other, and sometimes it works. On the other hand somtimes its good to let the fucker know how much you hate them.Yes Penny. i think we are all ‘living on the edge’ at the moment.
I get my weekly Tesco delivery in the morning and have amended it before time out to add, a fresh cream Victoria Sponge, fresh cream apple turnovers and egg custards.
Treat it as a bit of a holiday and indulge yourself with whatever it takes to gets you through.
The good news is we are due for sunny day tomorrow! X
P.S. I bet the terrible two have had big row and that’s why they are so quiet today.

Ok odd one out here but I Love LA love it love it, I love California basically.My husband is from Los Angeles and we lived there for the best part of a decade before moving to Europe where I am from. I never met a waitress or a valet or anyone for that matter who introduced themselves as you have described nor did I receive crap service when they realised I wasn't in showbiz. (I've actually only ever seen that happen in TV or film.) Los Angeles doesn't have the monopoly on fake, vulgar people - there's plenty of them in Europe too.
Astrology charts !!!! Do me a favourThese are interesting thoughts. I was surprised they released nothing whatsoever on their anniversary as they’re never usually shy in coming forward
I was doing fairly ok, till I read Thant Cambridge uni aren’t doing any face to face classes until sept 21..like 15 months later.Just sending everyone positive vibes, and best wishes. We'll get through lockdown, there are lots of sad moments from this time and also some good. Reach out to helplines, advice online etc. I know it currently means nothing but if you can try to take consolation that this temporary moment is a shared experience, and there will always be someone who will have had relatable moments of personal loss, or loneliness, anxiety confusion, not getting loo roll! Hopefully that can keep you going until then, you're not alone whilst isolating ❤
(And I sound like a previously known as Sussex royal statement)
