appeared ＠ virtual summit yesterday for a one-on-one with editor Ellen McGirt

Meghan told interviewer Fortune's Senior Editor, 

Ellen McGirt: 

"We have got to all put our stock in something that is true, and we need to have reliable media and news sources that are telling us the truth…when you know something is wrong, report it, talk about it."

The doting mum also opened up about ""times when stories about her have spiraled out of control", adding that they stem from "misinformation".

"If you look back at anything I’ve said, what ends up being inflammatory is people’s interpretation of it,"

"But if you listen to what I actually say it’s not controversial."

"If the changes that are being made are in fact made, it’s for the good of everyone, Facebook included. We can’t have this slap on the wrist."

Meghan concluded her conversation with a quote from Georgia O'Keefe: 

"I have already settled it for myself so flattery and criticism go down the same drain and I am quite free."

In the online programme for the summit, the description for Meghan's 15-minute "one-on-one" read: 

"Our experiences online shape our communities offline. How do we build - and rebuild - our digital world? What’s the true price we pay if we don't? We welcome Meghan, The Duchess of Sussex to discuss what it will take to create humane tech."

--------------------------------------------------

1. Ornamental vase

From the small glimpses of her home Meghan has revealed so far, the Duchess has filled the space with ornamental vases and blooms of flowers. 

The interview yesterday was no different, with the royal placing a large clear statement vase on the left hand side of the frame.

2. Decorative grass 

Meghan and Harry have also accentuated the greenery of their new gardens and outdoor areas with a huge plant in the corner of their room.

The large bloom of decorative grass is just one of several plants in their new home, with the bending grass dipping into the corner of Meghan's camera frame.  

3. Rustic shelving

A large shabby chic wooden cabinet could be seen directly behind Meghan in the shot during the interview. 

During an appearance last week, the Duchess hinted that she could be looking to industrial style interiors when decorating her new home by showcasing the design hardback Wood And Iron: Industrial Interiors on her sideboard.

The book offers a guide to those wanting to decorate their home in the distinctive style.

According to it's online description, it allows readers to dip into the world of industrial style, 'presenting the most influential names in the genre, anonymous pieces salvaged from junk shops and carefully selected interior design projects.' 

4. Soft grey and white throw

The Duchess appeared relaxed as she lounged on a huge white sofa with a variety of monochrome scatter cushions during the interview. 

Her lavish home shows her love for white furnishings and luxury accents such as the grey striped throw placed in the corner of the frame. 

The royal had a very similar item while filming Suits and living in her Toronto home, and often placed a grey striped throw, from the luxury textiles brand Pamuk and Co, across her white sofa. 

The brand specialises in traditional Turkish 'towels' made from high quality cotton, that can also be used as shawls, yoga mats, throws and baby mats and sell for a very reasonably 50 Canadian dollars or around £30. 

5. Colourful bloom of flowers 

On the royal's sideboard, a small posey of colourful flowers placed in a blue vase can be seen.  

The trio of pink and orange blooms add a bright splash to the neutral scene.  

The Duchess has long favoured mid-century modern furniture and a white colour palette, and added vibrant pops of colour with accessories such as a huge bouquet of flowers.

Meghan has always been a fan of fresh flowers,  with pink peonies declared as her favourite. 

But rather than being a gift from Harry, she has revealed that she regularly treats herself to her favourite bouquets.

'I bought these peonies for myself yesterday because they make me so endlessly happy. Do something sweet for yourself today too,' she advised her followers. 

6. $360 black-and-white birds nest prints

Three large pieces of monchrome artwork showing bird's nests, by Californian Barloga Studios, a photography and print studio owned by father-son duo Dennis and Roy Barloga, can be seen directly behind Meghan's shoulder 

A large piece of monchrome artwork can be seen directly behind Meghan's shoulder, which feature a bold black-and-white design. 

The print is one of three  from Californian Barloga Studios, a photography and print studio owned by father-son duo Dennis and Roy Barloga.

The brand specialise in 'nature' images, with the Duke and Duchess selecting three of the Nest Studies prints, which cost $360 each, for their living space. 

The three frames on show in Prince Harry and Meghan's home are likely snaps taken by Roy, who specialises in  infrared photographs and is best known for his series of 'trilogies' that span a wide variety of subjects.

According to their website, the duo are currently combining their talents to 'make prints on a variety of 'unphotographic' substrates' including handmade paper, film, wood, and fabric.

The couple have framed their huge nest prints in the brand's  frameless leather and steel hangers which are described online as 'offering an easy and inexpensive way to display our prints without the hassle of custom framing'. 

7. Scented candles

Directly behind Meghan's right shoulder, a large white candle can be seen decorating a sideboard. 

While the couple appear to have scented their home with fragrant candles, they have also decorated with the accessories to create some ambiance in the room.

8. Woke book collection including Humans Of New York by Brandon Stanton

Meghan and Prince Harry's reading taste can clearly be seen displayed to the right of the image, where there is several books perched in a decorative pile, including Humans of New York by Brandon Stanton and The Black Godfather 

The eye-watering costs of running their home 

The Sussexes took out a multi-million-pound mortgage to buy their spectacular home.

Sources say the couple are 'proud' to have bought the home without help from family.

Deeds show they took out a £7.25million mortgage to be paid back, plus interest, by 2050 – indicating they put down a deposit of around £3.8million.

Mortgage repayments will cost them some £30,000 a month and they will also have a yearly property tax of £220,000. 

This is on top of the cost of maintenance, cleaning, staff and security and utilities which could run into tens of thousands of pounds a month.

The couple are also paying back the £2.4million spent on renovating Frogmore Cottage in £18,000-a-month instalments.

It is not clear how the duke and duchess will pay for all of this. When they quit royal duties they made a point of stressing that they wanted to become financially independent

In an exclusive interview with the Evening Standard, Meghan and Harry share their hopes for racial quality and to “end structural racism in Britain.” 

ハリー王子まで訴えが止まらなくなりました。

Emily Sheffield, Editor of the Evening Standard,

"The Evening Standard is proud to work with The Duke and Duchess of Sussex on this project. London is one of the most diverse cities in the world, but it has not always been a place where voices are heard equally. The vast steps that have been made to improve BAME representation within every level of society, from education to entertainment, to the media and politics, should be widely applauded, but as Meghan and Harry note, there is still more to do. Whether racism is purposeful or engendered by society we need to join together to challenge it."

At a glance: Harry and Meghan on racism, Black Lives Matter and Diversity's controversial dance routine  

Harry - 

On racism: 

'Because I wasn't aware of so many of the issues and so many of the problems within the UK and also globally as well. I thought I did but I didn't.'

'You know, when you go in to a shop with your children and you only see white dolls, do you even think: 'That's weird, there is not a black doll there?' And I use that as just one example of where we as white people don't always have the awareness of what it must be like for someone else of a different coloured skin, of a black skin, to be in the same situation as we are where the world that we know has been created by white people for white people.'

'It is not about pointing the finger, it is not about blame. I will be the first person to say, again, this is about learning. And about how we can make it better. I think it is a really exciting time in British culture and British history, and in world culture. This is a real moment that we should be grasping and actually celebrating. Because no one else has managed to do this before us.'

On Diversity's BLM dance routine:

'We spoke to Ashley Banjo a few weeks ago, straight after the Britain's Got Talent situation. And that in itself, I am sure even me talking about it will be controversial, but the reality of it is he and his team of guys put on the most amazing display.

'We had such a good chat with Ashley. He was really strong, he felt great about it, but at the same time he was concerned because of the reaction. It was a real surprise that there was what? 1,100 complaints after the show and then three days of hype it became 20 or 25,000. I am very glad Ofcom made the decision that they did but that in itself kind of proves how much this conversation needs to continue.' 

On London: 

Harry said that even in London 'celebrated as one of the most diverse cities in the world, if you actually get out on to the streets and talk to people, it doesn't feel as diverse as it actually is.

'Therefore, now is the best time for us to be able to use our platform and you use your platform as well so we can actually start a conversation and introduce people to the black community that are making a massive difference within their own communities and across the UK as a whole as well.' 

On being away from the UK: 

'Everything has been through video, everything has been in a room, somewhere. Actually it doesn't matter where in the world we have been, we have stayed in touch with and supported the organisations as much as humanly possible.' 

Meghan

On BLM protests:

'... when there is just peaceful protest and when there is the intention of just wanting community and just wanting the recognition of equality, then that is a beautiful thing. While it has been challenging for a lot of people certainly having to make this reckoning of historical significance that has got people to the place that they are, that is uncomfortable for people. We recognise that. It is uncomfortable for us.'

On life in America:  

'We are doing well. [Archie] is so good. We are very lucky with our little one. He is just so busy, he is all over the place. He keeps us on our toes. We are just so lucky.

'Everyone has been accustomed to what it means to be distanced. The impact of that, whether it is across the Pond or across town, you are still for the most part through a computer screen. We have all had to adapt to how we can have the most impact as possible within the constraints of what has happening with Covid-19. Like all of you, we are doing the best that we can and hoping that our passion and our commitment is still felt as it certainly hasn't wavered.' 

On nominating her BHM NextGen Trailblazers: 

'An incredible example is Baroness Lawrence. Everything she has done in memory of her son [Stephen] is creating legacy across the UK in what it means to really push for the change that is necessary.'

Their joint plea to tackle structural racism:

'For as long as structural racism exists, there will be generations of young people of colour who do not start their lives with the same equality of opportunity as their white peers. And for as long as that continues, untapped potential will never get to be realised.'  

 

Full transcript from Harry and Meghan's Zoom interview with the Evening Standard  

Meghan: 'Yeah we're doing well, how are you guys doing? We're very lucky with our little one, he's just so busy. He's all over the place. He's just amazing. He keeps us on our toes, but we're really just so lucky.'

Abbianca Makoni, reporter: 'Why have you decided to launch this project?'

Meghan: 'We all decided to come together and do it. I mean, truth be told, and I was in the UK for a few years until we moved back here, I didn't realise that there was a Black History Month in Britain, and so to have that brought to our attention was really exciting I think, from a standpoint of everything that's going on in the world but mostly just because it's about celebrating community. And really if you're celebrating all of the individuals who are making an incredible impact within our community, then what a great thing to be a part of. I want to highlight those people that I don't know personally and really find their work to be notable but also to ask them to highlight who that next generation is, who those other people are. What it does is just really broaden the list of role models for young British people, and people abroad, black or white, or any other colour for that matter.

Harry: 'I mean, you can only… we've talked about this before, you can only be what you can see, and I think you guys touched on it right at the beginning there, which is the UK is incredibly diverse and London especially is one of the, celebrated as one of the most diverse cities in the world, yet if you actually get out on the streets and you actually talk to people, I think it is… it's not always as… it doesn't feel as diverse as it actually is. And therefore now is the best time for us to be able to use our platform, joint with your platform as well, so that we can actually start a conversation and introduce people to the black community that are making a massive difference within their own communities but across the UK as a whole as well. So I think it's a month of celebration, and of course with a lot of other things going on in the UK and America and around the world at the moment, there can be parallels of connections to that, but essentially for us this is very much a celebration of Black History Month.'

Makoni: 'And why is the project more significant now, especially with everything that's been happening with the Black Lives Matter movement and the protests across the globe?'

Harry: 'For me, it's awareness and it's education and it's teaching. You know, I've had a sort of an awakening as such of my own, because I wasn't aware of so many of the issues and so many of the problems within the UK, but also globally as well. I thought I did, but I didn't. And this isn't about pointing the finger, this isn't about blaming anybody, this is about using this opportunity, this month, to introduce Brits to other Brits that they might not know about or they might not have heard about. And I think the power of community that comes from that is absolutely vast, especially for young black men and young black girls.'

Meghan: 'Well, and I think also what it does is remind people of our share of humanity, and that's the takeaway. It's educational but it's also really exciting just to find more people in the community that are inspirational.'

Lizzie Edmonds, reporter: 'Do you have any reflections on the Black Lives Matter in the UK in particular and does being over in the States give you a different perspective on it?'

Meghan: 'It's a different movement. The impetus is from a place of recognising equality, and if you just go back to its ground level of that, then I don't think there's anything controversial about it. You know, we had the fortune of talking very early on this year, when the Black Lives Matter and the racial justice movement in the US was coming to a head after the murder of George Floyd, we spoke with Alicia Garza, one of the founders of Black Lives Matter. And as she could reiterate, the impetus is really just about reminding people of your worth. And I think, you know, as we've seen different iterations of it, what has been inflammatory I think for a lot of people is when any version of a community becomes disruptive. But when there's just peaceful protests and when there's the intention of just wanting unity and just wanting recognition of equality, then that is a beautiful thing actually. And so, you know, while it has been challenging for people certainly in having to make this reckoning of historical significance that has gotten people to the place that they are, that's uncomfortable for people. And we recognise that, it's uncomfortable for us. And I think when everyone just starts to own that, we push through that and focus on how do we make it different moving forward? And if we just focus on the uplift and the positivity of that, while still acknowledging the past, that's where we reshape things, and that shouldn't be inflammatory at all. That should be really exciting actually.'

Harry: 'I don't know… there's not much to add on top of that, it was so perfectly said.'

Meghan: 'That's a hard question for us to answer by the way.'

Harry: 'There's a reason why we decided to do this with you guys. You have the most diverse readership across all of the newspapers, and by the looks of it here but also from some of the material that I've read, you have a diverse workforce internal to the Evening Standard as well, which is not the same for others. So that is something to be celebrated, but again, just because of that, there can be a bias that comes out of reporting, out of society, out of all corners of society, and again that was something that I wasn't aware of, but it became very clear to me. But again, this is for me, this is an opportunity for the people to learn, for all of us to learn.'

Makoni: 'And how did you choose the list of high profile people to help you nominate the trailblazers?'

Harry: 'People that we know. People that we've interacted with over the years, people that have been mentioned to us by other people. Look, you know, this job has a certain uniqueness about it where we travel around the world, but we also visit all the communities, not all, but many communities within the UK, and the same names keep coming up. And we've been really just impressed, humbled and inspired at the same time by these individuals, whether it's Doreen Lawrence, or whether it's, you know, Neil Basu - these are people that are really, that are genuinely making a difference. We spoke to Ashley Banjo a few weeks ago, straight after the Britain's Got Talent situation. You know, that in itself, I am sure even me talking about it will become controversial, but the reality is that he and his team of guys put on the most amazing display of how they saw, or how 2020…'

Meghan: 'Sorry, my dog has just come…'

Harry: 'And we had such a good chat with Ashley. You know, he was really strong, he felt great about it, but at the same time he was concerned because of the reaction. And again, it's not about pointing the finger, it is not about blame. I will be the first person to say that this, again, is about learning. Learning about what our part is in all this and how we can make it better.

Meghan: 'When you happen to look at some of the names of the people from our list that we know, some of the people that they suggested is really exciting. So for example, Misan (Harriman) had chosen someone who created the black curriculum. And when you start to look at history books and what we're taught, to see it through a different lens, see it through a diverse lens, will help shape how children understand where they come from and then to know better where they're going.'

Makoni: 'This is a cause that's close to your heart along with many other charitable causes in Britain. Is it difficult not being able to be in the UK at the moment to be directly involved in them?'

Meghan: 'Well, you know, I think with Covid, my goodness, everyone has gotten accustomed to what it means to be distanced, right? And so the impact of that, whether it's across the pond or across town, you are still for the most part through a computer screen. So I think we've all had to adapt to how we can have the most impact and influence as possible within the constraints of what has happened with Covid-19.'

Harry: 'Everything has been through video, everything has been in a room somewhere. So actually it doesn't matter where in the world that we've been, we've stayed in touch and we've supported the organisations that we've been affiliated with, as much as humanly possible.'

Meghan: 'You know, like all of you, we're doing the best that we can and hoping that our passion and our commitment is still felt, because it certainly hasn't wavered.'

《エリザベス女王 一般道を運転！目撃》

10 / 1 (木)

took to the wheel of her green Range Rover for a spin around the Norfolk countryside today

すごい、まだこちらは運転続行、、、、、

94歳のエリザベス女王

サンドリンガムの領地とはいえ、

一般道らしい。

現在、一応夏休暇期間

女王は、エディンバラ公がいつもお過ごしの、。

Wood Farm

でご一緒にお過ごしということ。

スタッフをミニマムにして生活されている最中

女王が、エディンバラ公の方で過ごされているということか、、、

これもコロナ影響

しかし、それでご夫妻がご一緒の時間が増えた、

ということね。

もうすぐウィンザーに移動され

公務に復帰される模様。

年内、ロンドン、もしくはウィンザーでも

大規模イベントの開催は無し

と発表がなされ、

果たして

ロンドンに戻られるのはいつの日か、、、、だなあ。

まだ遠いねえ。。

Today Buckingham Palace said on its website: 'In line with current Government guidelines, and as a sensible precaution in the current circumstances, there will be no large-scale events held at Buckingham Palace or Windsor Castle for the rest of the year.

'A variety of possibilities were examined to see if it was possible for investitures to safely take place in line with the guidelines.

'Sadly, due to the large numbers of guests and recipients attending, it was not possible to find a way of safely delivering these events in the current circumstances. Recipients will be contacted directly.

'The Queen's intention remains to return to Windsor Castle in October and to resume the use of Buckingham Palace during an autumn programme of audiences and engagements, in line with all relevant guidance and advice.' 

The Queen typically spends her winter break at the Sandringham estate in Norfolk (pictured) but could be forced to spend Christmas at Windsor Castle for the first time in 33 years
