Is Prince William Trying To Oust King Charles?!

Is Prince William trying to oust King Charles and Queen Camilla Parker from the crown once and for all?!

Take a look at the viral claim, and find out what the facts really are!

Claim : Prince William Is Trying To Oust King Charles!

People are sharing a Music Mundial article which claims that Prince William is trying to oust King Charles and Queen Camilla Parker from the crown once and for all!

Here is the viral Music Mundial article. Please feel free to skip to the next section for the facts!

Prince William is reportedly trying to oust King Charles and Queen Camilla Parker from the crown once and for all

The royal family every day gives new news, and is that they must continue with their daily social activities, making the press is always watching them, even come to the conclusion that Prince William would be trying to strip once and for all of the crown to King Charles and Queen Camilla Parker.

Experts have indicated that the reign of King Charles III will be short due to his age and who will take control of the crown would be his eldest son, Prince William, who, apparently, would already be trying to strip his father and new queen of the crown.

Since King Charles was crowned as the official monarch of the United Kingdom, his son became the next heir to the throne in the line of succession, so he has already been working on increasing his popularity for when his big moment arrives.

And while it could be said that Prince William is still a few years away from finally being at the helm of the United Kingdom, everything seems to indicate that he is already doing everything he can to reach that goal. Apparently the prince has not been liking being the Prince of Wales and living in the shadow of his father, so he has already been implementing a plan with which he would allegedly strip his father and the queen of the crown.

According to some media this would have started at the recent Trooping The Colour event, in which Prince William along with his three sons led the grand parade in honor of the monarch’s birthday, exalting his image and leaving aside his father.

The prince had chosen this same day of the monarch’s celebration to give his first interview as Prince of Wales.

Truth : Prince William Is Not Ousting King Charles!

This is yet another example of celebrity FAKE NEWS created by Music Mundial to generate page views, and here are the reasons why…

Fact #1 : Prince William Does Not Need To Oust King Charles!

This is arguably the stupidest fake news article by Music Mundial, and that’s saying a lot.

There is simply no need for Prince William to oust his father, King Charles, because he is the next-in-line to the British throne, and will automatically succeed him.

Music Mundial suggested that to oust King Charles, Prince William has to be popular with the people. That’s utter nonsense. He is the heir-apparent, and will succeed his father, even if he is not popular with the people.

Fact #2 : Trooping The Colour Celebrates The Sovereign

Music Mundial claimed that by leading the Trooping the Colour parade, Prince William was publicly pushing aside King Charles.

The writer does not appear to understand that Trooping the Colour was a parade to celebrate King Charles’ official birthday! Instead of “leaving aside” King Charles, the parade was all about the King!

Fact #3 : It Was Prince William’s Duty To Lead The Trooping The Colour

Music Mundial suggested that Prince William’s first move to oust his father was to lead the Trooping the Colour parade, to increase his popularity with the public.

That’s utter nonsense, as it was Prince William’s duty as the ceremonial head of the Welsh Guards. In 2022, Prince William oversaw the Trooping the Colour rehearsal, and accepted the salute on behalf of Queen Elizabeth II.

Fact #4 : No Media Claimed Prince William Is Planning To Oust King Charles

Music Mundial suggested that the media believes that Prince William is planning to oust King Charles. That is also utter nonsense. There is no evidence of any legitimate media outlet that is making such a claim.

A quick search on Google shows that only Music Mundial is claiming that Prince William wants to oust King Charles. However, Music Mundial offered zero evidence to back up that claim.

Fact #5 : This Is Just Music Mundial Fake News

This appears to be nothing more than yet another example of fake news posted by Music Mundial. Here are examples of Music Mundial fake news that I looked into recently:

Is Prince William Violently Abusing Kate Middleton?!

Leave a reply

Is Prince William violently abusing Kate Middleton, because he has always been a violent man?!

Take a look at the viral claims, and find out what the facts really are!

Claim : Prince William Is Violently Abusing Kate Middleton!

People are sharing a Music Mundial article which claims that Prince William is violently abusing Kate Middleton!

Here is the viral Music Mundial article. Please feel free to skip to the next section for the facts!

Kate Middleton has been suffering from severe mistreatment by her husband, Prince William

The Princess of Wales, Kate Middleton warns that she has been suffering strong mistreatment by her husband, Prince William.

The relationship between the Duke and Duchess of Wales is not going well, after it was confirmed according to rumors that Prince William has been unfaithful to his wife, the Duchess of Wales, with one of his best friends from the past, the model Rose Hanbury.

In addition to this, the eldest son of Princess Diana has always been labeled as a violent man which increases suspicions that the situation actually occurred, adding to this that now it has been reported that Prince William is allegedly carrying out violent acts against the mother of his three children.

An insider at Buckingham Palace has revealed that this is not the first time that the Duke has been accused on this issue, including the Spanish magazine Marca who has revealed the verbal and emotional abuse suffered by the Duchess of Wales.

“Now a staff member has come forward with some really shocking allegations. This person claims that Kate Middleton has been subjected to emotional and verbal abuse by her husband, Prince William”.

The source, who preferred not to reveal his identity confirmed that Kate’s mental health has been quite affected “Leaving her struggling to cope with the constant pressures of her royal duties, and the challenges of maintaining a harmonious marriage.”

It was reported that Prince William is a very violent person, and this has been being learned by his young children, such as Prince Louis, who on one occasion with his hand brusquely covered his mother’s mouth to stop her from speaking at a public event.

No Evidence Prince William Is Violently Abusing Kate Middleton!

This is yet another example of celebrity FAKE NEWS created by Music Mundial to generate page views, and here are the reasons why…

Fact #1 : They Are Prince + Princess Of Wales

Music Mundial falsely called Prince William and Kate Middleton the Duke and Duchess of Wales. Wales is a country, not a dukedom. So there is no Duke or Duchess of Wales.

Prince William and Kate Middleton are, respectively, the Prince and Princess of Wales, not the Duke and Duchess of Wales.

If Music Mundial cannot even get this simple fact right, just how much can you really trust their articles?

Fact #2 : Kate Middleton Did Not Say She Was Being Abused

Music Mundial claimed that the Princess of Wales warned that “she has been suffering strong mistreatment by her husband, Prince William.”

That’s utter nonsense. There has been NO REPORT of Kate Middleton ever claiming that Prince William was abusing her.

Fact #3 : MARCA Only Claimed Verbal + Emotional Abuse

Music Mundial claimed that “it has been reported that Prince William is allegedly carrying out violent acts against the mother of his three children.” It then claims that it was not the first time, before quoting MARCA as the source of Prince William’s prior violent abuse against Kate Middleton.

The trouble is – MARCA – a Spanish sports newspaper, only reported that a palace staff member claimed that Kate Middleton was being “subjected to emotional and verbal abuse” by Prince William. There was no mention of Prince William committing physical violence on Kate Middleton.

[A] staff member has come forward with some truly shocking allegations. This person claims that Kate Middleton has been subjected to emotional and verbal abuse by her husband, Prince William.

According to the source, the alleged mistreatment has taken a toll on Kate Middleton‘s mental health, leaving her struggling to cope with the constant pressures of her royal duties and the challenges of maintaining a harmonious marriage.

“Kate’s really been through the wringer lately,” the source shared. “The way William treats her is just awful, and it’s been really hard on her. She’s such a strong person, but even she has her breaking point.”

Interestingly, MARCA quotes a Twitter post that refers to a Music Mundial article in its post! Do they have some kind of connection, I wonder…

Fact #4 : Neither Websites Offered Any Evidence

Neither MARCA, not Music Mundial, offered no actual evidence Prince William was physically, emotionally, or verbally abusing Kate Middleton. No photo, no video, no audio recording, nothing.

Now, we certainly do not know what goes on in private, behind closed doors. Perhaps Prince William is physically, emotionally, or verbally abusing Kate Middleton. But it could just as well be the complete opposite, or absolutely bogus.

It does not appear that MARCA corroborated its source’s claims of emotional and verbal abuse with other palace staff members. As for Music Mundial, it certainly did nothing to verify anything in its article. Heck, it couldn’t even get their titles right!

Fact #5 : No Evidence Of Rose Hanbury Affair

Music Mundial has been “reporting” on the Rose Hanbury affair with Prince William for a long time. But we have consistently debunked its claims:

Fact #6 : Prince Louis Photo Was From June 2022

Music Mundial posted a photo of Prince Louis covering up Kate Middleton’s mouth, as evidence that he was trying to protect his mother from his father’s “abuse”.

That was a screenshot from a video taken on June 5, 2022 – during the Platinum Jubilee celebrating Queen Elizabeth II’s 70 years on the throne.

At that time, Prince Louis was making funny faces in front of the cameras, which led Kate Middleton to apparently admonish him. He wasn’t having any of it, so he attempted to cover her mouth twice to stop her interruption.

He then proceeds to stick out his tongue and waggle his fingers at her. His uncle, Mike Tindall, who was just sitting behind him, also tried to calm him down, giving him the “I’m watching you” gesture.

From what we can all see – Prince Louis, like other children, were acting out because they were bored sitting down during the Platinum Jubilee. It’s not because he was trying to protect his mother from his father’s “violent acts”. That’s patently absurd!

Fact #7 : This Is Just Music Mundial Fake News

This appears to be nothing more than yet another example of celebrity fake news posted by Music Mundial. Here are examples of Music Mundial fake news that I looked into recently:

Are Prince Harry + Meghan Markle Getting A Divorce?!

Leave a reply

Are Prince Harry and Meghan Markle getting a divorce?!

Take a look at the viral claim, and find out what the facts really are!

Claim : Prince Harry + Meghan Markle Are Getting A Divorce!

People are sharing a Music Mundial article which claims that Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are getting a divorce!

Here is the viral Music Mundial article. Please feel free to skip to the next section for the facts!

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are reportedly getting divorced for the following reason

The confirmation of Prince Harry‘s attendance to the coronation of his father, King Charles III of the United Kingdom, would be bringing new and serious problems in his marriage with Meghan Markle. And according to recent rumors, the former actress would be very upset by the decision made by her husband, so she would be completely disappointed and intends to separate.

According to a source close to the British royalty, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex are facing a new marital crisis, given the initiative of the Prince to accept to attend the coronation of his father, despite all the internal conflict between them.

Buckingham Palace confirmed the attendance of the King’s youngest son on Wednesday, through a statement, where they also said that Meghan will stay in the United States taking care of her two children; Archie and Lilibeth Diana.

However, the situation between the two would not be peaceful, since the former interpreter had the intention that neither of them would be present at the event, which would be a clear message against the crown and the alleged injustices that both have been denouncing since 2020.

The British newspaper The Sun claimed that Harry has been having numerous secret conversations with his father. And according to what they have managed to investigate, he maintains a lively desire to be able to fix the differences between the two poles.

However, the Duchess of Sussex’s ideas were completely different; she wanted her family to remain distant from the crown until the members of the royal family apologize to her for everything she experienced while living in Buckingham.

For these reasons, it is now speculated that the marriage between Prince Harry and Meghan Markle is again in jeopardy. And this time, the problem could cause serious consequences.

Truth : Prince Harry + Meghan Markle Are Not Getting A Divorce!

This is yet another example of celebrity FAKE NEWS created by Music Mundial to generate page views, and here are the reasons why…

Fact #1 : Prince Harry + Meghan Decided On Coronation Attendance

First, I think it is important to note that both Prince Harry and Meghan, the Duchess of Sussex, decided that Prince Harry should go on his own. Their spokesperson issued this statement:

The Duke of Sussex will attend the Coronation service at Westminster Abbey on May 6th. The Duchess of Sussex will remain in California with Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet.

This was a decision by both Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, not Prince Harry alone. In fact, sources close to the Sussexes claim that it was Meghan who decided not to attend the coronation because her children won’t be playing a part in the day’s events. Plus, it would be Archie’s fourth birthday, and he deserved more fun than “something as stuffy as a coronation”.

The truth of the matter is the duchess was never likely to attend the coronation. The mood from California was that she felt increasingly put in an impossible position and there’s a fair sense of relief that the situation is resolved after so much speculation and uncertainty.

So claiming that Meghan would divorce Prince Harry because he decided to go to the Coronation without him is laughably false.

Fact #2 : No Evidence Prince Harry + Meghan Markle Are Getting A Divorce

Just to be clear – there is ZERO EVIDENCE that Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are getting a divorce for ANY reason.

For one thing – the British media as well as celebrity and royal family bloggers would have reported on this incessantly, and so would the mainstream media globally. After all, they are both celebrities!

Yet, no one reported even the rumour of a separation, never mind a divorce? That’s because it’s utter nonsense.

More so when it is already known that Prince Harry wants to only attend the Coronation ceremony at Westminster Abbey on the morning of May 8, so he can head straight back to California to rejoin Meghan and their two children.

Regardless of what we may think of the couple, Harry and Meghan appear to be lockstep in whatever they do, and dislike being apart, even for events like the coronation.

Fact #3 : Meghan Markle Was An Actress, Not Interpreter

Music Mundial bizarrely called Meghan Markle a former interpreter. Meghan Markle was never an interpreter.

She was an actress, who did some modelling jobs, as well as a freelance calligrapher and taught bookbinding, before she joined the TV show, Suits.

This “factual oddity” suggests that the article may not have been written by an actual person. It is possible that Music Mundial is using an AI text generator like ChatGPT to create these fake articles.

Fact #4 : Prince Harry + Meghan Never Lived In Buckingham Palace

Music Mundial oddly claimed that Meghan Markle once lived in Buckingham Palace, just as it once falsely claimed that Kate Middleton lived there too.

Prince Harry and Meghan lived at the Nottingham Cottage after they got married, before moving to Frogmore Cottage which Queen Elizabeth II gave them.

Fact #5 : This Is Just Music Mundial Fake News

As usual, Music Mundial offered ZERO evidence to back up its claims that Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are getting a divorce.

This appears to be nothing more than yet another example of celebrity fake news posted by Music Mundial. Here are examples of Music Mundial fake news that I looked into:

Limo For Western Leaders, Bus For Africans @ Queen’s Funeral?!

Leave a reply

Were Western leaders driven in limos, while African and Asian leaders had to take the bus for Queen Elizabeth II’s funeral?!

Take a look at the viral claims, and find out what the facts really are!

Claim : Limo For Western Leaders, Bus For Africans @ Queen’s Funeral

Many people are claiming that Western leaders were driven in limos to Queen Elizabeth II’s funeral, but African and Asian leaders had to take the bus! Here are some examples :

Queen’s Funeral: President Biden Arrives Buckingham Palace in His Presidential Armoured Convoy While slave master’s house keepers African Presidents Were Blocked and Conveyed in a Bus 🙆🏽‍♂️🙆🏽‍♂️🙆🏽‍♂️🤣🤣🤣🤔.
Africa wake up. @_AfricanUnion #Africa

Our leaders went to the UK and are being treated the way they treat us🤡

A video by a Malaysian TikToker who calls himself ArtieKohDr has gone viral making the same claims on WhatsApp:

https://www.techarp.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/09/ArtieKohDr-Queen-Elizabeth-Funeral-Limo-and-Bus.mp4?_=1

Truth : Limo For A Few Leaders, Bus For Everyone Else @ Queen’s Funeral!

This is yet another example of FAKE NEWS created and circulated on social media, and WhatsApp, and here are the reasons why…

Fact #1 : Bus Only Used For Short Trip To Westminster Abbey

First, I should point out that buses were only used to transport invited world leaders and VIPs for a short trip.

Those who were invited to attend Queen Elizabeth II’s funeral all arrived in their own vehicles at the Royal Hospital Chelsea, where they disembarked.

The dignitaries then rode a fleet of buses for a short 3 km ride to Westminster Abbey – a trip that lasted less than 10 minutes.

This “park and ride” plan was meant to reduce security and logistical difficulties in transporting so many dignitaries to Westminster Abbey, amidst the huge crowds gathered there.

Fact #2 : Only President Biden Was Allowed To Use His Own Car

US security protocol required President Joe Biden to travel in an armoured Cadillac known as The Beast.

Hence, he was the only leader to receive special permission to travel to Westminster Abbey in The Beast, escorted by other vehicles.

However, that didn’t turn out well when his motorcade got stuck in a traffic jam, and his car came to a standstill near the Marble Arch – a significant security risk.

Fact #3 : All Other Invited Guests Took The Bus

With the singular exception of US President Joe Biden, the claim that Western leaders were driven in limos to the Queen’s funeral is nonsense.

Everyone else had to park at Royal Hospital Chelsea and take the bus to Westminster Abbey. They included both Western, African and Eastern leaders like :

Irish Prime Minister Micheál Martin
Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau
Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese
New Zealand Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern
King Abdullah II of Jordan
Tanzania President Samia Suluhu Hassan
Kenyan President William Ruto
Malaysian Agong Al-Mustafa Billah Shah
Singaporean President Halimah Yacob
Japanese Emperor Naruhito
Polish President Andrzej Duda, and
German President Frank-Walter Steinmeier.

While some “prima donnas” were (allegedly) annoyed by the need to take the bus, many were happy enough to be amongst the few to be invited at all, and had no issues taking the bus.

Fact #4 : Many Asian + African Leaders Were Seated In Front At Funeral

While President Joe Biden was given the exceptional privilege of driving directly to the Queen’s funeral in his own car, he was seated behind many Asian and African leaders.

However, this was not a snub or payback for allowing him to be driven to the funeral in The Beast.

The royal funeral seating protocol strictly prioritises royalty and Commonwealth leaders over all other leaders, even those from much larger / influential countries.

Hence, President Joe Biden was seated 14 rows to the back, behind many African and Asian leaders. A point that many who complained about Western bias against African and Asian leaders seem to have conveniently ignored.

Did The Queen’s Royal Guard Collapse From Vaccine?!

Leave a reply

Did Queen Elizabeth II’s Royal Guard collapse during her funeral because of the COVID-19 vaccine?!

Take a look at the viral claims, and find out what the facts really are!

Claim : Queen’s Royal Guard Collapsed From COVID-19 Vaccine!

On 14 September 2022, a Royal Guard collapsed on live TV during Queen Elizabeth’s funeral. That video clip went viral the next day, with people sharing it with such comments:

The Queen’s Royal Guard suddenly fell to the ground, How many shots of #Vaccine has he taken? #Vaccinedisater

Royal guard at the Queen’s coffin has collapsed. That just means the vaccine is working!

Even royal guard joins sudden death world’s event #vaccine

Truth : Queen’s Royal Guard Did NOT Collapse From COVID-19 Vaccine!

It’s becoming a tradition for anti-vaccination activists to immediately blame all public deaths or illnesses on the COVID-19 vaccine.

This is yet another example of FAKE NEWS created and propagated by anti-vaccination activists, and here are the reasons why… and the current facts that we know so far.

Fact #1 : The Royal Guard Did Not Die

The Royal Guard who fainted while keeping guard around Queen Elizabeth II’s casket did not die. So the claim that he was another case of “sudden death” is false.

The man blacked out and fell forwards, sprawling onto the floor off the podium, as police officers rushed to his aid. He recovered shortly afterwards.

This was confirmed by a Beefeater who was also holding vigil at the Queen’s casket – RAF veteran Tam Reilly, who said, “As far as I know, he recovered shortly afterwards“.

Fact #2 : He Had To Stand Completely Still For 6 Hours

The ceremonial guards surrounding the Queen’s casket have to stand completely still for 6 hours at a time.

The only opportunity for them to break that monotony is the position rotation that occurs every 20 minutes. But otherwise, they have to stay completely still.

The human body is not meant to stand straight for long periods of time. Hence, it is not surprising for any one of these ceremonial guards to faint after standing still for so long.

Fact #3 : Not Uncommon For Ceremonial Guards To Faint

It is not uncommon for ceremonial troops like the Queen’s Royal Guard to faint or collapse at any event that requires standing for long periods of time, like Trooping the Colour.

In fact, it is so common that the soldiers are taught how to “faint to attention”. They should avoid toppling sideways, or try to lean onto nearby support.

But if they must faint, the soldiers are expected to faint forward, while still holding their rifle at attention, or with their arms at their side.

In the 2017 Trooping the Colour parade, five soldiers toppled over on that extremely hot day. You will note that it was many years before COVID-19 vaccines were invented.

In other words – COVID-19 vaccines are not the reason for British soldiers collapsing during such ceremonies.

Fact #4 : Unknown If He Was Vaccinated

The Royal Guard soldier who collapsed was not named. His vaccination status was certainly not revealed.

So there is really no way for anyone to know if he was vaccinated against COVID-19. For all we know – he could be completely unvaccinated!

The COVID-19 vaccine is not mandatory in the United Kingdom, despite what anti-vaccination activists may claim.

Fact #5 : Vaccine Side Effects Appear Within Hours / Days

Even if the Royal Guard was fully-vaccinated against COVID-19, he would have received all of his doses many months ago.

He cannot possibly have collapsed from a vaccine side effect, because they appear within hours or days, not months later.

Mild side effects like injection site pain, fever, muscle ache, headache, lethargy develop within minutes to hours of the vaccination.

Anaphylaxis develops within minutes, while other severe adverse reactions like myocarditis and VITT develop within days.

The spike proteins produced by the COVID-19 vaccines also do not stick around for months. If these spike proteins are permanent (as antivaxxers claim), we would have lifelong immunity.

Your own immune system will identify the spike proteins as foreign, and destroy them within a matter of days, although some may last for up to a few weeks. This is part of how vaccines teach your immune system to identify the enemy and destroy it.

Was Donald Trump Queen Elizabeth II’s Favourite President?!

Leave a reply

Was Donald Trump really Queen Elizabeth II’s favourite US President?!

Take a look at the viral claim, and find out what the facts really are!

Claim : Donald Trump Was Queen Elizabeth II’s Favourite President?!

US conservatives and fans of Donald Trump have been excitedly promoting the claim that the former US President was Queen Elizabeth II’s favourite!

It started, at least in a big way, when Newsmax anchor Greg Kelley made the claim while announcing the death of Queen Elizabeth II.

Greg Kelley also claimed that “this was the most genuine relationship with an American president that she had” and that “the affection was mutual“.

Donald Trump Was Unlikely Queen Elizabeth II’s Favourite President!

This is really nothing more than hyperbole, if not fake news, by Greg Kelly and Trump fans… and here are the reasons why.

Fact #1 : Queen Elizabeth II Met 13 US Presidents

First, let us establish some basic facts about Queen Elizabeth II and US Presidents.

Through her long seven-decade reign, she met with 13 out of the last 14 US Presidents, starting with Harry Truman and ending with Joe Biden.

The only US President she did not meet was Lyndon Johnson, who did not visit the United Kingdom during his presidency.

Fact #2 : Queen Elizabeth II Never Expressed A Preference… Officially

Queen Elizabeth II was famous for her discretion during her official duties, and never said anything controversial about any US President.

She certainly did not mention any particular preference for any US President, at least officially.

Fact #3 : Donald Trump Repeatedly Asked Queen Elizabeth II

Of all of the thirteen US Presidents to meet Queen Elizabeth II, only Donald Trump was vain (and foolish) enough to repeatedly ask her who was her favourite President.

I’ll never forget, I’d say, “Who was your favourite President?’ And she’d say, ‘I liked them all, I liked every one of them.

Fact #4 : Queen Elizabeth II Said To Leave Indirect Clues

Much has been said about the indirect messages Queen Elizabeth II conveyed through her attire, her gifts and the decoration of the room where she met dignitaries.

For example, she notably wore yellow and had yellow flowers in her drawing room when she met with Malaysia Prime Minister Najib Razak on 14 July 2011.

It was seen as an indirect nod towards the Bersih movement for free and fair elections in Malaysia, which used yellow as its official colour.

In fact, anti-Najib protestors also wore yellow and carried yellow signs when they protested outside the Mansion House in London, where Najib Razak was due for a meeting with the business community there.

She never said anything controversial to Donald Trump, but there were notable hints of her displeasure :

She gave Trump a book, even though he was notorious for hating to read.
The book – a first-edition copy of The Second World War – was written by Winston Churchill – a notable anti-fascist.
She made remarks about the importance of alliances and International institutions, right after Trump tried to undermine several alliances and international institutions.
The Trumps were not invited to stay at Buckingham Palace, unlike previous Presidents, allegedly due to ongoing renovations, even though it has 775 rooms, including 52 Royal and guest bedrooms.

Fact #5 : Queen Elizabeth II Only Invited Obamas After They Left Office

While Queen Elizabeth II did not officially name any US President as her favourite, her actions suggest that it was Barack Obama.

Queen Elizabeth met then President Obama and First Lady Michelle Obama in April 2009, and met them several times after that during his Presidency.

His last visit as President would be to Windsor Castle in 2016 for the Queen’s 90th birthday celebration, but it would not have been his last if the Queen had her way.

Queen Elizabeth II apparently liked the Obamas so much that she repeatedly asked her staff to invite them back after Barack Obama left office. A former employee explained it to royal author Tom Quinn :

The queen has a soft spot for Americans after meeting Barack Obama who she completely fell in love with – so much so that she has frequently asked her courtiers if they could arrange for him to come to Britain now he is no longer president.

The Queen has never invited any other US President to visit her once they left office. Only the Obamas were invited back, which speaks volumes about her regard for the Obamas.

The Queen was even photographed with Michelle Obama, with their arms around each other in 2009 – a gesture of fondness unseen with other First Ladies who met with the Queen.

If anyone can lay claim to being Queen Elizabeth II’s favourite US President, it would undoubtedly be Barack Obama, not Donald Trump.

Did Malaysia PM Refer To Queen Elizabeth II As Male?

Leave a reply

Did Prime Minister of Malaysia Ismail Sabri Yaakob refer to Queen Elizabeth II as male in his formal condolences?!

Take a look at the viral screenshot, and find out what the facts really are!

Claim : Malaysia PM Referred To Queen Elizabeth II As Male!

People are sharing a screenshot of a Facebook post by Malaysia Prime Minister Ismail Sabri Yaakob, in which he apparently referred to her as “male”.

The person who created it highlighted portions of the official statement in which the Prime Minister apparently referred to her Majesty as “male”.

His Majesty who is also the longest-serving ruler in the history of the world is known for his dedicated nature in protecting the welfare of his people.

His service in maintaining the good relationship of the United Kingdom and countries around the world including
Malaysia is always remembered and appreciated.

I hope His Royal family and the people continue to be strong in facing this challenge.

Truth : Malaysia PM Did NOT Refer To Queen Elizabeth II As Male!

The Prime Minister of Malaysia, Ismail Sabri Yaakob, is known for his poor command of the English language. So it is not surprising to see Malaysian netizens poke fun at him for that.

However, this is yet another example of FAKE NEWS circulating on WhatsApp and social media like Facebook and Twitter.

Official statements, especially on matters of great import, would certainly be vetted by government officials before they are posted.

It would have been a major faux pas if Ismail Sabri wrote and posted his own message without first getting it vetted by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. This is after all, official communication from one government to another.

And so, when Ismail Sabri posted the message, it came in two versions – Bahasa Melayu (Malay) and in English:

Bagi pihak Kerajaan Malaysia, saya merakamkan ucapan takziah kepada Kerajaan dan rakyat United Kingdom berikutan kemangkatan Ratu Elizabeth II.

Legasi pemerintahan Baginda Ratu Elizabeth II akan terus dikenang. Baginda akan selalu dihormati atas komitmen yang tidak berbelah bahagi ke atas Komanwel, dan sumbangan berterusan Baginda dalam usaha mengukuhkan hubungan dua hala antara United Kingdom dan Malaysia.

Doa kami sentiasa bersama rakyat United Kingdom dalam menempuhi waktu sukar ini. Semoga roh Baginda bersemadi dengan tenang.

——

On behalf of the Government of Malaysia, I offer my deepest condolences to the Government and people of the United Kingdom of Great Britain on the passing of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II.

Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II will always be remembered for her selfless devotion to her service. She will be respected dearly for her unwavering commitment to the Commonwealth and her contribution in efforts to strengthen bilateral ties between the United Kingdom and Malaysia.

Our thoughts and prayers are with the bereaved people of the United Kingdom during this time of mourning and sorrow. May Her Majesty’s soul rest in peace.

The person who created the fake news intentionally used Facebook’s machine translation feature to automatically translate the Bahasa Melayu version into English, even though there is already an official English version of the message.

Because Bahasa Melayu (Malay) is gender neutral and does not differentiate between he or she, the machine translation automatically defaults to the male pronoun – he / his / him, except where it refers to the Queen specifically.

Hence, the viral screenshot is genuine, but it does not show the Prime Minister of Malaysia, Ismail Sabri Yaakob, referring to Queen Elizabeth as male. It only shows the limit of machine translation.

In the screenshot, you can also see Malay > English at the top of the translation – yet more proof that this was translated from Bahasa Melayu (Malay).

HU Finally Admits Queen Elizabeth Not Dead From COVID-19!

Leave a reply

Hollywood Unlocked finally admitted that Queen Elizabeth was not found dead from her COVID-19 infection!

Take a look at their viral claim, and find out why they were wrong from the very start!

HU Claim : Queen Elizabeth Dead From COVID-19!

On 22 February 2022, Hollywood Unlocked published an article claiming that Queen Elizabeth was found dead, presumably from her COVID-19 infection!

HU Exclusive: Queen Elizabeth Dead

Socialites, it is with our deepest regret to inform you that Britain’s Queen Elizabeth has died.

Sources close to the Royal Kingdom notified us exclusively that Queen Elizabeth has passed away. She was scheduled to attend the wedding of British Vogue editor Edward Enninful, but was found dead.

The Buckingham Palace announced on Sunday that The Queen had tested positive for coronavirus. They said at the time that Queen Elizabeth who was celebrating her 70th year on the throne — was “experiencing mild cold-like symptoms” but was expected “to continue light duties at Windsor over the coming week,” the palace said.

However, this Tuesday, she also canceled her planned virtual engagements as she continued to suffer from the “mild Covid-19 symptoms.” No further details surrounding her death have been shared. She was 95 years old.

We will continue to keep you updated as this story develops…

Truth : Queen Elizabeth Is NOT Dead From COVID-19!

Seriously, some websites are so desperate for views that they would just make up stories like this.

Queen Elizabeth is very much alive, and NOT DEAD from her COVID-19 infection, and here are the reasons why…

Fact #1 : Queen Elizabeth Diagnosed With COVID-19 On Sunday

Just for context, Queen Elizabeth II tested positive for COVID-19 on Sunday, 20 February 2022.

Fully-vaccinated against the coronavirus, she was said to be suffering from mild cold-like symptoms.

Fact #2 : Queen Elizabeth Continuing With Light Duties

On the very day Hollywood Unlocked claimed that Queen Elizabeth was found dead from COVID-19, Buckingham Palace actually made some announcements about her health :

she postponed two scheduled virtual audiences, and that
she was “still experiencing mild cold-like symptoms“, but will “continue with light duties“.

Fact #3 : Queen Elizabeth Had Her Weekly Telephone Call With UK PM

A day after Hollywood Unlocked claimed that Queen Elizabeth was found dead from COVID-19, Buckingham Palace announced that the Queen had her weekly telephone audience with UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson.

Fact #4 : Queen Elizabeth Does Not Attend Celebrity Weddings

It is remarkable that a celebrity blogger like Jason Lee seems unaware that Queen Elizabeth II does not attend celebrity weddings.

She’s the Queen of the United Kingdom and the Commonwealth realms, not some doozy influencer or celebrity.

Fact #5 : Queen Elizabeth Is Isolating With COVID-19

Even if Queen Elizabeth wanted to, she wouldn’t be able to attend Edward Enninful’s wedding, because she just tested positive for COVID-19!

Buckingham Palace had already pointed out that Queen is isolating at Windsor Castle after testing positive for COVID-19.

Fact #6 : There Are Existing Protocols To Break The News

The United Kingdom has a long history of monarchs dying, with long-established royal protocols in place to break such news.

If Queen Elizabeth II did indeed die, Buckingham Palace will inform UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson, after which an announcement would be made on the BBC.

Obviously, that has not happened.

Fact #7 : Kate Middleton Continued Her Tour Of Denmark

If Jason Lee needs more evidence, he would do well to note that the Duchess of Cambridge, Kate Middleton, continued her tour of Denmark.

Protocol dictates that members of the royal family must always bring a black outfit on overseas trips, in case of a death in the family.

If the Queen had really died, the Duchess of Cambridge would have been on the first flight home.

Instead, she was seen smiling and dressed in a chic gray coat by Catherine Walker, when she met Queen Margrethe and Crown Princess Mary of Denmark.

Fact #8 : Buckingham Palace Does Not Comment On Such Rumours

On Wednesday, 23 February 2022 – the day Buckingham Palace announced the Queen’s call with the UK Prime Minister, a Twitter account (@HollywoodUL) claiming to represent Hollywood Unlocked posted an apology and blamed the mistake on “an intern”.

However, Jason Lee, the owner of the Hollywood Unlocked blog, claimed that it was a fake account, and refused to retract his fake story.

Woke up to some fake account posting a retraction. We do not know that account and we have not retracted our story. There has yet to be an official statement from the Palace. Staying tuned.

Jason Lee also wrote on Twitter :

We don’t post lies and I always stand by my sources. Waiting for an official statement from the palace.

He may have to wait a long time, as Buckingham Palace told Newsweek that it never responds to rumours of this kind.

Fact #9 : Jason Lee Removed Two Posts

Despite insisting that he is standing by his sources, Jason Lee quietly deleted two of his Instagram posts on 24 February 2022.

in the first, he claimed he has never lied, and has never been wrong, that he trusts his sources and he has yet to see an official statement from the palace confirming that he’s wrong
in the second he called out Variety for suggesting that he was wrong

Fact #10 : Hollywood Unlocked Admits Queen Is Still Alive

On 25 February 2022, Hollywood Unlocked finally admitted that Queen Elizabeth II is very much still alive.

Instead of a contrite apology, they wrote a long non-apology article called “Fact Check: 10 Reasons We Believed Queen Elizabeth Was Dead“.

Basically, it was a long list of excuses why they should not be blamed for not checking their facts, and how they would “never intentionally cause unnecessary pain or grief”. Yeah, sure.

Jason Lee apologised in the article, “… based on Wednesday’s report from the Palace, I can say my sources got this wrong and I sincerely apologise to The Queen and the Royal Family.”
