The Royals Part 32

CHAPTER 14.

Doc.u.ments: Personal letters released by the Presidential Library of Ronald Reagan: In a letter to the Queen and Duke of Edinburgh, dated June 18, 1982, thanking them for their hospitality at Windsor Castle, Reagan expressed U.S. support for the U.K. invasion of the Falkland Islands: "The news of your victory in the South Atlantic was received with happiness and relief here. We are glad that you have upheld the principle that armed aggression cannot be allowed to succeed, and in addition, that young men of the United Kingdom and Argentina will no longer be under fire."

Re: Arrest of Sarah Ferguson in New Orleans: Talbot Church, an author who acknowledged many hours of informal interviews with the Duke and d.u.c.h.ess of York for his book, The Royal Love Birds, The Royal Love Birds, wrote about Sarah's trip to the United States with Charlotte Eden. According to his account, the two young women were caught in a police raid on a brothel in New Orleans. wrote about Sarah's trip to the United States with Charlotte Eden. According to his account, the two young women were caught in a police raid on a brothel in New Orleans.

"We were hauled out of bed in the middle of the night by two enormous men in uniform and taken down to the police station, where we were photographed and fingerprinted," Sarah's traveling companion told the author. "I was speechless, but Fergie was tremendous and managed to convince them at last that they'd made the most frightful mistake. All the same, it's rather mortifying to think that one's mug shot will be forevermore on file in a New Orleans police station. And that of the Queen of England's future daughter-in-law, too."

In 1995, a detective with the New Orleans Police Vice Squad said that such a raid was "a routine bust" and the young women were not involved in solicitation. Their arrest records were expunged.

Re: Security precautions for the royal family: "This became an issue," said the head of the Royalty and Diplomatic Squad, "in July 1982 when Michael f.a.gan broke into Buckingham Palace and entered the bedroom of the Queen." The intruder climbed over the railings of Buckingham Palace, scaled a fifty-foot drainpipe, and broke in through a bedroom window. "This was a breakdown in security. No question. Afterward, we had to survey the procedures in all the royal houses throughout the country, and the report was debated in Parliament.... There is no question but that the police did not do their job properly.... The benign a.s.sumption that no one would want to harm 'our dear Queen' accounted for the lax security. We've tightened things up, but we'll never go the way of the Americans at the White House with sharpshooters in the trees and heat sensors and metal detectors. The Palace has none of that and will never have... that."

The man sent from the Diplomatic Police Group to review security measures said he talked to the Queen about the 1982 break-in. "You don't interview the monarch," he said deferentially. "You ask a few questions." He admitted that he did not ask the Queen where her husband was during the break-in. "The question was not necessary," he said.

Even when summoned, the staff did not appear immediately. "We had to change our shirts and comb our hair," said a member of the royal household. "It would be improper to appear otherwise in the presence of the monarch."

Re: The Britannia Britannia as a floating palace: as a floating palace: "The Queen and Prince Philip used the royal yacht to receive state visitors," said Philip Benjamin (April 26, 1994), one of twelve sailors a.s.signed to attend the royal family. "The most memorable state visit was from the King of Morocco, who arrived with a trunk full of jewels for the Queen. The trunk was so heavy, it had to be carried by four men. It was heaped with jewels.... I remember a golden camel on a green marble base as big as a chair with palm trees that had coconuts made out of rubies as big as your fist. In addition, the trunk was loaded with diamonds and sapphires and emeralds.... It was a wonder to behold... must have been worth $10 million.... I would've been happy to have had just one of those stones. Could've lived well for life, I'm sure.

"The Queen gave the King a signed photograph of herself and Philip in a silver frame. Very little value compared to what they were getting in return, but the Queen didn't care. She was angry at the King because he arrived late for dinner. She had waited over forty-five minutes for him to come aboard, so she wasn't going to give him the satisfaction of being impressed by his gift.

"We had been warned to know when the Queen was getting irritated. First, she taps her foot and looks around. Then the compact comes out. Those are the first two signs.... At the Palace, she has a buzzer under her desk. If someone bores her, she presses the b.u.t.ton, which sets off a very soft alarm outside, and her page steps in to eject the visitor. But we don't have a buzzer like that aboard the Britannia. Britannia.

"During a Saudi Arabian state visit, one of the royal Saudi princes arrived with gold Rolex watches for everyone. The Queen let her own staff accept the watches, but those of us in the Royal Navy had to return them. Again, the Queen's gift was a picture of herself and Philip in a silver frame...."

Re: Diana's social skills: Former White House social secretary Gahl Burt said her husband, Richard, former Amba.s.sador to Germany, was enchanted with the Princess of Wales. He saw her at Washington Post Washington Post chairman Katharine Graham's house in October 1994. "Since seeing you last, we had a little girl, who is so beautiful," he said to Diana. chairman Katharine Graham's house in October 1994. "Since seeing you last, we had a little girl, who is so beautiful," he said to Diana.

"She must have your genes," replied the Princess flirtatiously.

Burt told his wife that Diana was the most superb diplomat he had ever encountered.

Traveling the world on goodwill tours, giving speeches and meeting dignitaries, Diana proved herself to be Britain's most skilled envoy. She invited Leah Rabin, widow of slain Israeli Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin, to visit her at Kensington Palace. Mrs. Rabin told her, "I feel a great kinship to you because you and I are the two most tragic figures in the world. Except you have a future-and I only have a past."

Re: Queen's gesture to religious denominations: While she was applauded for visiting a Roman Catholic church, she was criticized in 1996 for making a speech to the Warsaw parliament in Poland and omitting any mention of how Polish Jews suffered during World War II. Her staff scrambled to rectify the omission, which appeared insensitive and impolitic. "It was due to human error for which the Queen's advisers take full blame," said a spokesman. Supposedly the speech was to have contained the sentence "Nor can we ever forget the suffering of the Polish people under n.a.z.i occupation." Her spokesman said: "The omission of the sentence was entirely unintentional. The Queen had intended to make it." The courtiers quickly arranged for the Queen to lay a wreath at the Jewish Memorial in Warsaw.

Her courtiers made sure Her Majesty paid proper tribute to the part Jews played in British life when she welcomed the first president of Israel to make a state visit to Britain in February of 1997. Raising her gla.s.s to Ezer Weizman, the Queen ended her speech with one of the most popular Jewish toasts: "Lechayim," she said. "To life."

Re: The Queen's commitment to the throne: She had once considered abdication. In 1965, when Prince Charles was seventeen years old, she met with her advisers to discuss her son's future. She said she would like to avoid "an Edward VII" situation, referring to her great-grandfather, who inherited the throne from Queen Victoria when he was fifty-nine years old. By then he had spent most of his life sipping Champagne in the arms of his lovers. "It might be wise," said the Queen, according to her biographer Robert Lacey, "to abdicate when Charles could do better."

Her husband joked, "You might be right. The doctors will keep you alive so long."

By 1991 the Queen had reconsidered. She told her subjects in her Christmas address to the country: "With your prayers and your help, and the love and support of my family, I shall try and help you in the years to come."

She seemed destined to fulfill the prophecy of Sir John Colville, who was private secretary to Winston Churchill and helped train her for the throne: "I believe that the Queen will reign on to celebrate her golden jubilee, fifty years as monarch, in 2002 A.D. A.D."

Re: Michael Cole, the former spokesman for Mohamed al-Fayed: Days after this book was published in September 1997, Mr. Cole appeared on CNN and a.s.serted he had not spoken to me. He said he was "astonished" to discover his name in the acknowledgments. Since I had talked to him in London for over twenty minutes on tape, I wrote to him on September 22, 1997: "To refresh your memory, we spoke at length on November 15, 1993, when I called you at Harrods. During that conversation, you talked about what happened over your part in the early release of the Queen's Christmas message on December 17, 1988, and, because of it, how and why you resigned from the BBC. We also discussed various press secretaries to the Queen and royal correspondents, etc. You were forthright in your opinions about all things pertaining to royalty and you asked me to call you on my next trip to London so we could have tea and talk further. The tapes of that conversation are with my lawyers, and I'm enclosing a copy of the letter I sent you on March 5, 1994, proposing that we speak again."

Cole did not respond to my 1997 letter but again went on television to deny talking to me. So my literary agent gave the tape of my interview with Michael Cole to a reporter. "Kitty Kelley is not in the business of releasing details of interviews with sources," said Wayne S. Kabak of the William Morris Agency, "but felt she had to in this case to prove she was right and Mr. Cole was wrong."

A reporter from The People The People in London contacted the al-Fayed spokesman. Cole denied again that he had been interviewed by me. When the reporter played the tape, Cole admitted he had talked to me. The reporter said he was writing a story about the incident. in London contacted the al-Fayed spokesman. Cole denied again that he had been interviewed by me. When the reporter played the tape, Cole admitted he had talked to me. The reporter said he was writing a story about the incident.

"You won't make it come out too nasty, will you?" Cole asked. "I've got enough problems at the moment."

On February 20, 1998, Michael Cole, fifty-five, quit his job as the public face of Harrods. After ten years as spokesman for Mohamed al-Fayed, Cole said he was taking early retirement. He admitted he had become the "lightning conductor" as claim followed counter-claim about what really happened the night Diana and Dodi were killed in Paris.
