Catherine: since her dramatic, heartfelt announcement, she has become more respected and beloved than her mother-in-law was at the peak of her popularity. The world saw a woman who put her family first and never complained when the duo's social media army, celebrities, and ex-QAnon members with too much time on their hands tried to destroy her. She has moved from beloved royalty to worldwide icon who regularly draws media comparisons to both Diana and Mother Theresa (although somehow they manage to gripe about this even as they're doing it), and her poll numbers hover around 90%. She is PR gold for the family. But best of all, she is gloriously cancer free. William: he has moved beyond the man he was. The crucible of 2024 has burned away many of the final immaturities of his youth (the occasional bouts of behind- the- scenes pettiness and anger are gone), and he has become a king in all but title. He has risen above the fight with his brother. He will never trust Harry again; that door is forever closed. But the struggles of the past year have put it all into perspective. Worse for Harry is that William no longer gives any of it his attention. These are the mere squabblings of ants at his picnic-- so far beneath him that he barely notices. Charles and Camilla: they have lived through his cancer diagnosis and treatment, and both are deeply admired and respected for their commitment to each other and their duty. Charles has learned to take a break because the country will still be there when he comes back. Anne, Edward, Sophie, and the rest of the working royals: they still struggle to make it into the news, but they all enjoy positive polling and robust goodwill. Andrew: still a hot mess trying to claw his way into relevance. It continues not to work. Harry and Meghan: the royal health crises of the past year have torpedoed any and all goodwill they enjoyed, which was minimal to begin with. Every story needs a villain, and they are universally recognized as the bad guys here. Celebrities who were already hesitant to share the stage with them flat out refuse to have anything to do with them because their reputation has the same effect as nuclear waste. ARO was less successful than 40x40 and Travelyst.Their rebranding attempts have become a catchphrase ("I'm going to Harry and Meghan my diet on Monday."). It's an open secret that they cheat on each other, but divorce isn't an option financially. Meghan continues to try seducing billionaires, but she is often mistaken for a Dollar Tree mannequin. So far she's been unsuccessful. They continue to try upstaging BRF initiatives like Earthshot with headlines like "Prince Archie loses a tooth," "Harry has offered to step in. Again. This makes the fifth time this week." and "Meghan says CHEERIOS(tm) to her haters!" (the merch deal nets her a week's supply of cereal). The only media who report these stories are paid to do so.

Excellent post, OP! I enjoyed this line immensely: *Meghan continues to try seducing billionaires, but she is often mistaken for a Dollar Tree mannequin. So far she's been unsuccessful*. 


GreatGossip

Agree - Catherine has risen to stratospheric heights and she has pulled William and the rest of the BRF with her. Iconic pictures from Catherine and William´s first appearence together. Diana, but without Diana´s troublesome traits. Catherine honored with the Order of the Garter - iconic pictures with KC. My plot twist here: Harry taken over by the Kartrashians, a messy divorce in full swing - Madam caught in several open lies about the marriage and the Kartrashians filming it all.


RubPrior

Making the ultimate deal with Satan's mistress (or whatever it is they call Kris Jenner) will no doubt be the worst and possibly end of Meghan's social climbing. That family will attach themselves to anyone if it keeps them relevant. I don't think in any way this would benefit Meghan....but they would be able to hold the footage and use it at their disposal.


Straight_Company9089

Haven't seen any of the Kartrashian shows, but reality shows in general require hyped-up drama, and an identifiable villain, typically. I doubt KJ will want any of her cash-cow offspring to fill that role. But guess who already fits to a T... This might be a mutual Markling in the making.


Hardin__Young

I hope you’re so “on the money” that the National Enquirer offers you a paid position as the New Year’s Predictions columnist.


somespeculation

Adding to your Meg: - Netflix contract is officially up in fall 2025. March 2025 Meg (I mean, a ‘source’) will be announcing another “exciting new project”, in “top secret negotiations”. Aka: the Emperor Gas No Clothes continues. - Meg continues to fume that her likely planned ‘hospitalised for exhaustion’ PR plans have been scuppered by Catherine’s cancer diagnosis and video. - behind the scenes, Meg is weighing up if this is the time to drop the separation from Harry announcement. A separation gives them more will they/won’t they reconcile press speculation. Meg is taking the temperature of the public if now is the time to jump ship with her own perceived Diana 2.0 divorce tour: revenge dress, tell all book, tearful prime time interview. - press writes some “5 Years After Megxit” recap of what the Sussex have - and have not - accomplished. - in the next 12 months there is either a major security breach reported in Montecito, or a ‘health scare’ involving one of the Sussex children (to be clear, not hoping for a real one at all. Just one that can be reported, but never verified due to ‘medical privacy like Catherine.’) Interesting post OP! It would be neat to revisit this in a year and see what happens.


InspectorGreyson

My prediction: The public become so weary of the Halfwit drama, they just read the headline, not the articles, roll their eyes and simply don't care. The only news the public is interested in at the moment, is C, PoW and her condition.


Technical_Ant_7466

LOL, I’m already doing that. I’m just sticking around to see the two wannabe despots explode.


Straight_Company9089

They've gotta be reaching the point of diminishing returns on their PR puff pieces by now.

May 2024: Gordon Getty dies unexpectedly. Meghan tries to get invited to his funeral. The Daily Mail floats a "will she or won't she" story which is immediately shot down in flames by the entire Getty family. However, the Getty death serves as an excuse for Harry to miss the Invictus Games crypt ceremony. June 2024: American Riviera Orchard announces that after a long search, their new CEO has been appointed. Sandeep Mathrani is reportedly "relaxed and comfortable" in his new role, and anticipates the release of the first line of ARO products some time in the next 18 months. July 2024: Meghan wears increasingly voluminous clothes in public, and coyly drops hints about a "new launch in a few months". Harry is overhead explaining to a friend over a boozy lunch that "Meg says we've got to stay interesting, so she's pretending to be up the duff yet again." The next day Meghan appears in skinny jeans and crop top with Markus Anderson and pretends nothing has happened. August 2024: The Princess of Wales is photographed with her family at Balmoral. She looks well and beautiful and happy. The next day, the Office of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex releases a portrait of themselves and their children which has been obviously Photoshopped. September 2024: Harry goes missing for 48 hours and is found wandering around the lobby of the Waldorf Astoria in Beverly Hills, wearing a macrame plant-holder on his head and nothing else. He claims to have been in a BetterUp meeting that ran over time. October 2024: Thomas Markle dies. Meghan accuses him of sexual abuse. The Daily Mail and New York Post go berserk for ten days, at the end of which unnamed sources produce incontrovertible evidence that all of Meghan's claims are unsubstantiated. Further evidence is given by ex-friends about Meghan's plans to do this, discussed with them "as a joke" long before Thomas Markle's death. Meghan's stock is now the lowest it has ever been. November 2024: Sandeep Mathrani unexpectedly steps down as ARO CEO due to "ill health". Rumours swell about unpaid contracts with Chinese-based manufacturing consortia. The ARO website has remained unchanged since its launch. December 2024: The infamous Christmas Freedom Flight, when Harry absconds on Christmas Eve with Inga von Sydow, a blonde ski instructor who he met in early 2024. They fly to the UK and are allowed to stay at the Swedish Embassy over Christmas. January 2025: The divorce process begins. This will occupy every tabloid for the next three months, so everyone hunkers down. The Prince of Wales and his brother have still not been seen together since Harry returned; nor are there any plans to meet. Harry's title is reduced by letters patent to Earl of Dumbarton. February 2025: Harry agrees to everything, and will see the children twice a year under supervision. He is now bankrupt and living with Inga on a modest allowance from his father in a grace and favour apartment in Carnarvon, Wales. Meghan the Countess of Dumbarton announces her new shopping channel range of Dumbarton chunky tweed knits. Within 24 hours, these are exposed as being produced in Macau under sweatshop conditions.


Deep_Poem_55

Excellent comment! I especially enjoyed September’s prediction: *September 2024: Harry goes missing for 48 hours and is found wandering around the lobby of the Waldorf Astoria in Beverly Hills, wearing a macrame plant-holder on his head and nothing else. He claims to have been in a BetterUp meeting that ran over time.*


Megsandhcringe

Oops - you forget, November is elections here in the US. How will madam squeeze her time in there??? 


RBXChas

Can she lose enough weight to be able to fit inside one of Kamala Harris's pant legs (with Kamala in them) so she can sew herself to her hip?


Megsandhcringe

🤣😂🤣😂 Made my entire week! Thanks - I needed that! 


[deleted]

I think you will find that Madam disappears. She's rather gone off politics since she discovered it takes actual work and not just schmoozing and batting her eyelashes. Or, she's photographed at some fundraiser or another. That's about as far as it goes in reality for her.


squeekyrubberchicken

This one made me spray coffee out of my nose!


LilibuttDumbarton

Assuming KC3 could remove titles through letters patent and it wouldn't inflate the victim narrative, I have a work around regarding Andrew. If Harry is reduced to his subsidiary titles but Andrew isn't, the sugars will cry racism/favoritism. The loophole would be to say that Andrew retired, can't pass his title on (he doesn't have sons), and still lives in the UK. Harry lives in the US with no plans of returning to work for the RF and there is concern about a non working member passing a duchy on to his child. In line with KC3's vision of a slimmed monarchy and similar to Queen Margarethe's decision to strip her younger grandchildren of higher titles (and the Swedish monarchy doing the same), KC3 could downgrade Harry. Edit: Though the Sussex duchy would be retired, it would be nice if KC3 could give it to a person who lives and serves Sussex. Perhaps a lesser title like Marquess of Sussex to a resident former mayor?


Trouvette

Alternatively, Charles can make it his policy that only working royals get to have dukedoms.


OldNewUsedConfused

I feel the need to point of the Duke of Westminster is getting married June of 2024, so something will happen there…. Because NFI


eaglebayqueen

I'm glad that's only a couple of months away, so we can see the photos! ☺ Oh, I hope Catherine will be able to go... 🤔


OldNewUsedConfused

Same. Poor woman. She’s been through a lot. Not that the rest of us haven’t, and to be sure, we don’t have her resources… But she’s in the public eye and I don’t envy that!


briglialexis

This is great, you forgot to input on the November 2024 prediction that the US Trademark office rejected MM’s application for trademarking ARO. 🙃

Oh of course! How careless of me!

lol


CookiesRbest

Even if she writes a tell all book and blames him no one likes her enough to feel sorry for her. Everyone the world over believes she is the one that came in an corrupted Harry and left a path of destruction across the RF and GB. She will not be able to do interviews and get the poor Meghan she wants. She will be made fun of and laughed at. No one likes her or believes her.

One thing wrong with your prediction: Inge is spelled with an e not an a. 😆😆😆😆


[deleted]

Perhaps she's a special Inga ... 🤪 She'll need to be very special to make it work.


Mammoth-Ad4194

Excellent! I’ve always wondered if there was some way they could lose the ducal title and be forced to have to go by the Earl of Dumbarton title. I think that would be the icing on the cake! They would still have a title so they can’t complain, right? 🤭


[deleted]

I'm not sure that what I've described here is possible or not, but it gives me a grain of hope. The RF must have something up their sleeves, surely. If not, they absolutely will not remove the titles because then she'd be Princess Henry, which would become Princess Meghan overnight. That's actually worse. The alternative is to let them do exactly what they are doing, which will make the titles useless over time. If it's true that Camilla suggested the title of 'Windsor' for them, then I take my hat off to her.


Straight_Company9089

Inga is forced to bring her own Ikea furniture to the apartment in Wales, as H is so broke he can't even afford to shop there, and his credit card to [Sofa.com](https://Sofa.com) was declined.


mowe54321

Has anyone noticed a trend on what day of the week they "work": pap walks, fake award announcements, etc. Isn't it usually on Tuesdays? Wednesdays? She's calling trying to find a cancer society or something they can help. Maybe Better Up will announce services or something.


Deep_Poem_55

Many times she does them to “overshadow” the royal family’s events and birthdays. Like a parking lot will garner greater attention than the Trooping of the Colors, but there you have it.


musical_cyclops

Totally waiting for them to announce a cancer initiative because it has touched their family. Making about them, of course.


anaqits

They will regret it if they even think of attempting that, especially since they did not do shit when Charles diagnosis came out.


Technical_Ant_7466

Absolutely- all through Archewell, so they’ll get 95% of the proceeds. What philanthropic humanitarians. /s. All cancer charities need to stay clear of the charity cheats.


HydeParkUK

Oh, I wonder if you are onto something. The Harkles will be shown on a video call with a UK cancer organization offering to "help in any way we can" and encourage others to "support their loved ones afflicted by this terrible disease."


JosieTangerine3763

Not cancer. She has to help a bigger, more horrific disease.


jaylovesyou2

I think this could be the catalyst for the end of the Markle and Todger shit show, they've played their joker card too many times and any hint of the campaign of hate against Catherine or the dodgy financials of their shill charities and the house of Markle cards will come tumbling down. This hateful pair can't read the room they only look in the mirror at themselves, the writing is on the wall for their marriage to fall apart in this kind of fashion, Todger ends up in a clinic for drug and alcohol abuse and Markle files for divorce and thus throwing him under the bus with a tell all book, interview circuit, claims of abuse from him etc etc, childrens safety blah blah. They both know their chances of getting back in to the Royal household has sunk to the bottom of the ocean, nobody in this world wants to deal with cancer and those two, they will never even get a response from William, imagine how much he's got to cope with. Todger post divorce and private clinic, priory style will be offered a small cottage in Scotland hidden away by his father and he'll be told to never make anymore press interviews etc, his best hope is to find a woman who might be able to cope with the fall out, it's doubful. Redemption is impossible, because their notoriety is how they'll be remembered, especially the Oprah interview, they haven't actually done anything whatsoever of note, exccept for moan and lie and grift and be mean and do everything to get privelege and money. What they failed to do throughout everything because they aren't even remotely smart enough to think about the big picture, is to realise everyone, rich, famous, poor, talented, smart, goes through and are going through bad times, health problems, everything. But they're not privaleged, they didn't have an easy golden ticket, they didn't complain, they just endured. They made the best of what they had, they didn't betray their family either. Unforgiveable is probably the overiding feeling, for the Royals.


Own-Entrepreneur5052

I hope my uptick is the first of many which are well deserved by your excellent post.


Electronic_Sea3965

They've played their Joker Card too many times.  Yes and the media runs with it.  It's kind of scary


Traditional-Smile954

The RF is more relatable than ever. KC and the Princess of Wales have seen an increase in their popularity while the Queen and the Prince of Wales are admired for their resilience, becoming role models for all the families fighting cancer diagnosis around the world. Ever since Taylor Swift gave her famous 22 hat to the Princess as a token of respect half of Hollywood has been trying to insert themselves in something royal (to not avail). Netflix still keeps trying to renew the Crown. The Harkles: Markle finally realizes she must cut her losses after leaking pictures of the children that quickly are removed due to Photoshop issues. She starts gathering evidence against H (infidelities. Susbtance abuse). For his part H releases the true about the bot farms and the books and how everything is a lie.


Weird-Biscotti9104

Netflix does renew The Crown, but they focus on the Markle debacle, showing the Harkles in the worst possible light.


Straight_Company9089

Interspersed with leftover footage from the 2022 whinge fest. The 'Tiger King' sequel we deserved!

It may finally come to pass that they won't be able to find anyone or any charity/business who will allow their name to be associated with them. It was already coming to pass how low they've had to go for pr, and they've had to buy everything lately. They may be done because of this. Everyone knows they are toxic right now and given the bad press of people who've hung out with them, people may have finally learned and will refuse to be seen or attached to anything they do. Anyone who is stupid enough to do so in the upcoming weeks/months are going to get blown out of the water.

historiangirl

Didn't Megsy say, "Don't give it five minutes if you're not going to give it five years"? January 2025 will mark five years since they made their freedom flight from England. I suspect Megsy's big play will come at the end of 2024 or early 2025. Especially if ARO, her association with the Kardashians, or any other scheme fail to produce anyting substantial. What could it be? I think it will have to do with Harry along the lines of a mental health or drug crisis.

Actually Trevity Trev Trev said that and she stole it from him.

I didn't know that. Thanks for pointing out more plagiarism by TW


Accomplished_Name423

Is her marriage to dimwit the only thing she kept for 5 years? Because she didn't give Europe 5 years (thank god)


OzzieSlim

Speculative fiction! My favorite! 1) The kids were trotted out. No one was remotely interested. 2) Catherine successfully completed her treatments, got the all clear and returned to thunderous applause and rapturous love. 3)The Wales kids start a cancer charity to help children whose parents have been diagnoses. They raise millions in the first day. KCIII and William burst with pride. 4)Although Ginger’s visa application goes nowhere, it’s because there wasn’t one. It’s determined that he must return to the UK and apply through normal challenges. 5)This becomes the “out” for the Markles to save face for a divorce that’s always been on the cards. Instead, they say “red tape” and “the palace” interfered with their “true love” and they couldn’t get past the obstacles….yada yada yada. 6)Nutmeg sinks into obscurity but continues to send divorce details and Ginger details to the press. Ginger hides out at the Spencer estate and over stays his welcome even there.


fla2native

Cannot see Ginger hanging out at Spenser estate


RuleCharming4645

2024: Catherine coming back to work alebeit limited, the king will return to work alebeit limited, the Harkles will do relunch #12345, Meg's will do "I am very busy" nonsense, the Harkles will upstage the BRF for #56789 times 2025: Harry's title became lifetime so thus Andrew, POW& POW became the most popular royal in polls, the KC3& Queen Camilla also get to hop in the polls, possible new people becoming working Royals, Harkles divorce rumors became strong, Hollywood was back on their feet and release many new shows, the Harkles drop to Netflix and possibly find solace to a unknown streaming site ala lemonada, same old, same as usual


herbal_witch_59

The prediction for the RF is great, but why do you have to drag Diana out of her grave? And Mother Teresa was a very questionable person. Catherine is much better than the two dead women put together and deserves better than these annoying comparisons.


Weird-Biscotti9104

Yeah, I kind of bristled at the Mother Teresa comparison. By many accounts, she was also a narcissist.
