HARRY and Meghan are back in the UK to smile, wave and nick all the things they forgot first time around. But what are they?
Paintings by Titian, Rubens and Caravaggio
Modern girl Meghan has decided she misses the faded charm of the Royal palaces, and thinks a few Old Masters will give their Vancouver penthouse that touch of class. She’ll keep the Queen talking while Harry shoves them in a bag.
The 1821 Sword of Offering
Commissioned by George IV, this Damascus steel blade is encrusted with more than 3,000 diamonds. Harry’s the only Royal who’s been a proper soldier so great-x7-grandad would have wanted him to have it.
£44 million in gold ingots
Granny’s an old woman – as long as she’s got her corgi and her reading glasses resting atop a copy of The People’s Friend she’s happy. She doesn’t need all this gold and if it’s left there you just know Kate’s commoner family will be trousering the lot.
Frogmore Cottage
Meghan’s logic is: we had it renovated to our design, then we had to pay for the renovations, so basically we’ve bought it and it’s ours. Wholesale dismantling and relocation to Hollywood Hills to be disguised by scaffolding.
The Scilly Isles
Ever since he was a boy, Harry’s always wanted his own archipelago. And what better location to rule from as a king-in-exile while everyone on the mainland is wiped out by the coronavirus? The deeds are already stuffed up his jumper.
The BBC
They love it over in North America. Also it’s liberal and green and multiracial just like Harry and Meghan are, and Britain clearly doesn’t want it or it wouldn’t have elected Boris. The BBC will be loaded into a van and sneaked out of the country at 3am tomorrow.
