I literally just crawled out of my sick bed (tooth bed? My face is swollen, you guys) to look at this photo on my laptop, because looking at it on my phone wasn't enough. HELLO LOVER. ## Prince Harry ![prince harry](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2015/11/GettyImages-496786292.jpg) Ostensibly, Harry is giving a speech about how to incorporate Endeavour alumni to reach out to people in need, but I suspect he's taking a poll about where he might blow the froth off a cold one. Because as we know, that's where the night went. ## Prince Harry ![prince harry](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2015/11/GettyImages-496786280.jpg) VICTORY. Even though Jess already had the Instagram on the main page of the post, I couldn't resist this shot of a very chipper beard, a poppy, and what looks for all the world like a mere half-pint. Perhaps, out of deference to the fuller beards in the room, the Ginger Fringe decided to go light on the hooch. ## Camz and Chaz Visit Australia ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2015/11/GettyImages-496465526.jpg) I see that Charles and Camilla have reached the point in their trip to Australia and New Zealand where they're REALLY OVER each other. PUT THE KNIFE DOWN, CAMILLA! It will be The Tower for you, if you go through with it! ## Chaz and Cams Visit NZ and Australia ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2015/11/GettyImages-496086876.jpg) Now, THIS looks like a vacation. ## The Prince Of Wales & Duchess Of Cornwall Visit Australia - Day 2 ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2015/11/GettyImages-496567978.jpg) The Australian War Memorial cloisters in Canberra remain one of the most photogenic locales for any and all royal events. (Charles and Camilla, of course, placed poppies there on Wednesday.) ## Chaz and Camz in Australia ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2015/11/GettyImages-496591882.jpg) Informative Caption tells me that, here, Camilla is smelling a (giant) truffle. "Smelling a truffle" feels like some kind of weird euphemism. ## Chaz and Cams ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2015/11/GettyImages-496183206.jpg) You guys, Camilla is LOVING THIS. ## Prince Charles ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2015/11/GettyImages-496339028.jpg) In case you forgot that Chaz is one of the world's preeminent masters of tie/pocket square combinations. Also, this is allegedly a "tea," but it looks like a Pimms to me. Mmm, Pimms. ## The Prince Of Wales & Duchess Of Cornwall Visit New Zealand - Day 6 ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2015/11/GettyImages-496342226.jpg) Honestly, I am mildly concerned that Camilla isn't wearing enough wreaths on her head during this trip. ## Camilla ![camilla duchess of cornwall in australia](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2015/11/GettyImages-496568222.jpg) She DID get a very nice SENSIBLE lid for this trip, though. ## Camilla ![camilla](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2015/11/GettyImages-496591878.jpg) "I shall take this truffle ice cream STRAIGHT back to the Great British Baking Show, and have a royal order declare that making ice cream IS baking. Just you watch." ## Chaz and Cams ![charles camilla cornwall australia](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2015/11/GettyImages-496592780.jpg) "Oh, yes? You think you're clever? Well, WHO'S GOT TWENTY KILOS WORTH OF MEDALS." Actually, Charles in general seems to be such a more relaxed and happy person. Imagine him in the 80s making this delighted face and joshing with local youths. I can't. ## Camilla ![camilla australia](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2015/11/GettyImages-496786998.jpg) "Thank you! I borrowed them from Kate. They're comfortable but aren't they a bloody eyesore? I might throw them into the sea." ## Sophie Wessex ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2015/11/GettyImages-496714416.jpg) Sophie Wessex was in New York this week -- here, she placed a wreath at the 9/11 memorial on Veteran's Day. ## Sophie Wessex ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2015/11/GettyImages-496746492.jpg) And this is a 100 Women in Hedge Fund gala -- the London version of which we recently saw Kate attend, [in her Divisive Erdem Gown](https://go-fug-yourself.ghost.io/kate-middleton-erdem-100-women-in-hedge-funds-dinner-10-2015/) \-- and I LOVE Sophie's dress, but her accessories make zero sense to me at all. ## The National Arboretum Holds Annual Service Of Remembrance For Armistice Day ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2015/11/GettyImages-496668468.jpg) Always on duty, this one. ## Princess Anne at Cheltenham Races ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2015/11/GettyImages-496963552.jpg) AHEM: "The Princess Royal opens the new grandstand named after her at Cheltenham racecourse." IN A FUR HAT, no less. ## QE2, Etc ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2015/11/GettyImages-496502752.jpg) Per Informative Caption, "Queen Elizabeth II receives the Governor of Victoria, the Hon Linda Dessau AM, and her husband, Judge Anthony Howard, during an audience at Buckingham Palace." Is it me, or are we seeing more varied interiors at the palace for these events lately? I want to shove past all three of these people and look at the photos on the side tables. ## QEII ![queen elizabeth II](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2015/11/GettyImages-496812724.jpg) The Queen dressed up in a GORGEOUS blue color and what appears to be a paisley skirt (!!) for a trip to the Home Office. I had no idea she ever wore paisley. This is a delight to me. It's like Crouching Paisley, Hidden Sass. (Apparently, on this visit, [a police dog had a go at her handbag to try and sniff it for illicit things. I love that. Get that job done and don't be cowed by titles. Way to go, dog.)](https://www.people.com/people/package/article/0,,20395222%5F20966373,00.html?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io) ## QE2 and Ambassador of Kyrgyzstan Gulnara Iskakova ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2015/11/GettyImages-496964928.jpg) Her Maj is ALL about the prints this week. ## QE2 and Prime Minister Of India Narendra Modi ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2015/11/GettyImages-496969040.jpg) It makes sense that the Palace has announced that Wills and Kate are visiting India whilst the Indian Prime Minister is visiting. Synergy! ## Brandywine CupcakeTower and Sophie Hunter ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2015/11/GettyImages-496500766.jpg) Oh! Also, this happened: "Actor Benedict Cumberbatch, with his wife, Sophie Hunter, after receiving the CBE (Commander of the Order of the British Empire) from Queen Elizabeth II at an Investiture Ceremony at Buckingham Palace. " They both look lovely; this suit is very Period Piece Dashing on him. ## Queen Letizia ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2015/11/GettyImages-496502642.jpg) I love this pattern, but would this be better with a fuller skirt? I think it would. ## King Felipe VI and Queen Letizia ![King Felipe VI and Queen Letizia](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2015/11/GettyImages-496812462.jpg) She's back to the trousers, much to Felipe's apparent confusion. Eyes off the pants, Felipe, and up to the jacket. It's way more interesting. Also, I wish my hair looked like that when short. Sigh. At LEAST put out a how-to pamphlet, Letizia. ## Queen Maxima ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2015/11/GettyImages-496647652.jpg) That is a MAJOR necklace. [Royals Round-Up, November 13th, 2015Greetings, Fug Nationals! This week's Royals Round-Up is a joint effort between me and Heather, because as you read this, I will be recuperating from having two wisdom teeth out and apparently it's not advisable that I write about Prince Harry whilst strung out on Vicodin. WHICH SEEMS UNFAIR. I'm sure my thoughts would be perfectly cogent. Other royals coverage this week here at GFY included: -- Wills & Kate went to the Festival of Remembrance this past weekend, along with a variety of family members. Wills wore his glasses! -- Max and Wax came to London for Remembrance Sunday, which also brought us a McQueen coat on Kate, which is also somewhat of a tradition. Also: swords. AND ELSEWHERE: -- Hello! has put together a bunch of amusing anecdotes about the British Royal Family, including that the Queen collects pepper shakers. I guess once collecting colonies is out of the question, one must collect SOMETHING. (Sorry, I saw Hamilton this week; I have colonies on the brain.) Also, this is amazing: "To avoid arriving late, Prince Philip has given his valet the task of feeding him sandwiches while he drives." That is truly living the dream. For Philip, not the sandwich-feeder. -- The Independent reports that certain Indian luminaries and businessmen want the Koh-i-Noor diamond back from Great Britain, and they're going to sue for it. This is a complicated issue, and one The Guardian articulates well in this opinion piece. But speaking of articulating things well, there's a quote in The Independent that they got from the DMIK (which I'm sure is EXTREMELY I KNOW about this), in which a historian is quoted as basically saying that India should be happy to let the UK keep that giant diamond out of gratitude for how awesome it was for India to be colonized. I can only imagine that everyone who is on the legal team that's working to allow the UK to keep the diamond sent that guy a series of texts that basically said, "OMG SHUT THE F UP YOU ARE REALLY NOT HELPING." -- Speaking of India, Wills and Kate are taking an official trip to India next spring -- probably sans Georgie and Charlotte -- and I cannot wait. It's going to be fascinating and incredibly photogenic, I suppose. Imagine the Taj Mahal shot! (People) -- Hello! has a run down of past royal jaunts to India. -- Also via People, Wills and Kate are going to Wales next weekend (and have a lot on the docket next week in general). Good thing I will presumably be off my Tooth Drugs by then!) -- Royalista brings us Crown Princess Mary in her best gold lame. -- Per Hello!, the very very very attractive King and Queen of Bhutan are expecting a baby, who will surely also become a very very very attractive individual. -- The Duchess Diaries had basically the same reaction that I did to a recent story in the DMIK that Kate is starting a line of organic foods, namely: I'm so sure. -- Queen Mathilde is currently in Ethiopia with UNICEF. -- At Vogue, Michelle Ruiz takes a class called The Duchess Effect -- AKA, Kate Training. For those of you who've read The Royal We: Exiting a vehicle does not seem to be on the docket, but the proper way to sit is. -- I always enjoy the Jewel History feature at The Court Jeweller, and this recent one about the court jewels is fun. -- Tatler tackles Royal Small Talk. -- The Royal Hats blog updates us on what's been happening on the heads of the Swedish recently. -- Sophie Wessex met a goat in Canada: Welcome to @THERAWF HRH Sophie, #CountessofWessex it’s a true honour. pic.twitter.com/kOD00EW5ik — Turbo The Goat (@turbo\_goat) November 13, 2015 -- We have shots of this in the slideshow, but I thought you might want to see Harry in action: Prince Harry has arrived at the Royal Albert Hall for the Royal Variety Performance. pic.twitter.com/lW4f8Yim2h — Catherine Wylie (@wyliecatherine) November 13, 2015 -- Harry also did this: Prince Harry outlined the @endeavourfund vision for supporting wounded service personnel and veterans at a reception at St James's Palace tonight. Prince Harry told guests: "In this next phase of the Endeavour Fund, we will be asking those who have taken part in previous endeavours to take a leading role in future challenges. Some as project managers but more significantly to act as peer mentors, forming a support network for those veterans who have not found the impulse to come forward. Our alumni are ideally placed to help these 'hard to reach' individuals rediscover their sense of purpose through sport."
