Colleensee like one beat of sweat when I'm pulling for a photo on my knees.
BridgetIt was so fun cuz I love my group of friends from home. So it's always nice when we get together. get all glammed up and I force all the men to Take pictures. and Yeah, it was, it was a great time. We dance the night away. I did get lot of split requests. My body does in fact, hate me right now and forever. Uh, I have another wedding. This weekend that's. gonna be wild. So these are my last two of the year though. So I'm I'm ready. to rumble Okay. It ended though. right? We go back to the hotel. I get a hotel room for the night. There's this one kid, I went to high school with. I have not seen And I'm not kidding you over 10 years
Colleenman Everyone has one, you know?
BridgetYes. but we're not. There's no animosity. He's just not in my group of friends, but we had a bunch of classes together. Like where acquaintances. He is sloppy. like this man was drooling at one point, you know, when he was a S slob Kaba, you know, when you are drunk and you look at someone like I was. very Drunk. And I looked at him and thought, oh, this man needs assistance.
Colleenstands
BridgetLike someone. called the authorities. This man needs help. So he's drooling all over himself. and he didn't get a hotel room. And he was like, I don't know where to go. There's no Ubers. He keeps talking about, it. he doesn't know what to do. so I got a hotel room. and was gonna split it and that didn't work out. So I have an extra bed and I was like, I wanna be very clear. This is not an invitation to hook up. If you would like to, you can place yourself in the bed next to me, that is currently empty. And then you can Venmo me and we can split the room And he was all about that, but then he got wicked annoying and he wouldn't leave me alone. And finally, I just went upstairs and I got my room key and I was like, Just take this spare room key and just like leave me alone. I'm trying to talk to my friends. He keeps coming over slobbering all over us. I'm just like enough, I'm not your mother. We're literally not friends. Like I'm already.
Colleentea in a decade
BridgetI we're, I'm already doing you a solid. Behave yourself. Get it together. So whatever he puts himself to bed. Thank God I hang out for the rest of the night. So I go to bed. I. wake up. And I'm usually really good about putting all my things away. Everything is out. My earrings are still in fake eyelashes, still in didn't wash my face. I look out and this man's asshole. is out. I'm like If I could just stop seeing people's anuses. I would be thrilled. I would be thrilled. I ever fucking rolled over with. like one eye open? cuz it was so sunny and my eyes were sticking together because I had lashes glued to them. I look over with one eye and I see an asshole and I was just like,
Colleenjust too early for that

Colleennot fair. It's really not fucking fair. Um, but yeah, a mutual friend. What mutual friend does a a random person have with the prince? I just, I'm not I think, I think it's a lie.
BridgetOkay. I'm I'm with her so far.
ColleenOkay. I just need more details. Oh, another thing that I was in kind of a S about was her sister.
BridgetWhat about
ColleenShe has like a crazy half sister. Oh, that's like 50 They had a different last name. Yeah And she took it back when they started dating or like were. engaged She had like a different last name. And then she went back to Marco. this woman looks like an animal she's also a lot older. remember she wrote like a book about
Bridgetlouder Yeah. I remember all the crap that came out around their wedding and I actually felt wicked bad for her Yeah. That sucks because the press is already brutal. Like they're known for being brutal in England. Yeah. Let alone having your own family come for you. Just terrible. I felt wicked bad for her.
ColleenYeah, she, I'm pretty sure the book was called the diary of princess push she's sister. Imagine This woman is like 60 years old I'm not kidding. She's scary. And she changed her name back to Marco. When she, when she was like 55. for clout for clout I was gonna say, and she said in an interview she, someone asked her about her and she was like, well, if it doesn't tell you anything, she changed her name. back to Marco in her mid fifties. I wonder why. Yeah So she's she's clout chasing. is what
Bridgetfor sure Rough.
ColleenCan you say bitter? That's all I
Bridgetwe truly can't pick our families. We all have crazy
Colleenfamily Yeah. But the thing got married. I don't really have any beef with her, honestly. she dabbled in like activism and stuff. She was on um kind of the United nations of Argentina Like she was trying to do stuff like that. Have you ever done the, because you, did you watch bridge
BridgetI watched the first
ColleenOh my God. So good. When you can create your, um, Bridgeton name.
BridgetOh, how do you create it? Your
Colleenit was like it's like your middle name. And then late it was like, mine was like lady Margaret of. Oh, and it's the first three letters of your street name and then Ashire. So It was like, land Landshire A land cast Shire, Cause I lived on Lancaster street at the time. So lady Margaret of Landshire
Bridgetland. Oh wow.
Colleenyours would be
Bridgetlady Theresa of Hillshire us. Fuck me.
ColleenRight up. That's an opportunity to crop our faces on some Royal people with new names.
Bridgetyeah. Megan has a new podcast called archetypes.
ColleenI don't know I feel like she loves this man, right? I mean, she can't be like, oh, it's I can't believe he's a prince. And I don't want that. It's not her fault. She doesn't have to step into this role. if She doesn't want to So I get it What if she loved him so deeply, but like it's like, oh he is a prince and he has duties to do. Maybe he just loved her so much. And He was like, I love you. And if you don't want that, then I don't want it either. like, it's just it's it's not being selfish.
BridgetI think what happens a lot is they, you think that, you know how bad it is or how crazy it's gonna be. And from the sounds of it, it is 3000 times worse.
Colleengonna Yeah. I can only imagine. And honestly, like I don't fuck with rules, so that sucks.
BridgetOh. And there are so many rules. Did you know? I actually have some facts for you. So one of my best friends from college, Jesse, she married a guy from England. His name is, or we love him very much. And so I reached out and was like, Hey, we're doing a, uh, a Royal family episode tomorrow, speak now, or forever hold your peace.
Colleennow. Oh did you get the good tea? from him?
BridgetHe said, cuz I was like, okay, so the Royal family, tell me your thoughts. They said they represent the people armed forces and are a symbol of national unity. They love the Royal family. Okay. They love them, especially the queen. She is it. They're not allowed to run for office. They're not allowed to speak about politics at all. Cuz they could sway people. They support 3000 plus charities. Okay. They're very into helping charities, which is great. They have a lot of rules, like a lot. I saw somewhere. That all of the women have to pack black dresses. All the men have to pack black suits in case someone dies because at the time queen Elizabeth was princess Elizabeth. She was in Kenya and her father died and he was in his fifties and he had some issues, but it was still sudden, and they flew her home and she had to wait on the plane while they brought a black outfit onto the plane that she could change into because she was not allowed to be seen, not in anything else, but black imagine being the aid that gets sent to queen Elizabeth's home to pick out the outfit and they were like, it had to be mourn, but also honor her new role as queen talk about anxiety, getting ready. Imagine standing in front of the Queen's closet and being like,
Colleenwhat should we
Bridgetpick for her today? what what are we gonna do
ColleenA Queen's stylist What a role
BridgetI can't even imagine. So now every single person has when they leave the country packs a black outfit just in case mm-hmm
Colleenmm-hmm Okay So we learn from our lessons.
BridgetThey're not allowed to wear a lot of makeup, the women, and they ha their knees have to be covered at all times. Like no Sund dresses, everyone's knees are
ColleenOkay
BridgetI will say Kate Milton is beauty and grace and she is flawless. Her wedding dress. I was so
Colleenweak. The after one with the, did you see the furry sweater? Ugh. to die,
Bridgetto die for? I also loved Megan Markels, but I loved Megan. Markels second dress, more thereafter party. It was like a high collar. It went down. Oh my God. It was stunning. It was absolutely stunning.
ColleenKate her
BridgetOh, princess Diana's ring I'm not a big colored ring
Colleennot either And I saw it and literally was like
BridgetSapphire's forever So beautiful. Heirs are not allowed to travel on the same plane in case the plane goes down. so let's take prince William, cuz he's next in line for the throne. His son, George is gonna be the one after that. When he turns 12, they have to travel separately in case the plane goes down. There are a lot. of crazy rules like that. There's a lot of curing and bowing of course. Um, there's a lot of like if the queen is eating at the table at her last bite, everyone has to stop eating. So hopefully she doesn't eat fast
Colleenor else everyone's fucked and everyone's starving.
BridgetI also saw somewhere. I don't know how true this is, but she has, she talks to the person on her, right. For the first part of dinner. And then in the middle, she turns and talks to the left. Like there are crazy rules like that. it just sounds like I hate to say it a Giled cage a bit. It sounds like
Colleenstart living like that and just be a little bit
Bridgetbe no just ask too That sounds terrible. You literally went on a whole thing about how you hate
Colleenthing about I know, but I'm like, oh maybe we'll live like the queen I would like to, live
BridgetI think that people love Meghan Markle because she's the Cinderella story. Right? This small town girl marries a prince. She doesn't even quote unquote know who he is. She set up on a blind date They fall in love. They get married. They're you know, not in a good situation. And then they leave. I think people who are more traditional hate Meghan
Colleenwho that makes sense
Bridgetbecause they're just like, no, this is It Yeah. This is the family. This is how things work. You're not going, you're not doing the things that you're supposed to be doing. And it just sounds like she's not someone who plays by the rules and just didn't wanna be miserable. I there's a lot of tension between her and Kate Middleton, supposedly too.
ColleenI mean I get it, because Kate's like, the opposite
Bridgetbut I don't know how true any of this is.
ColleenKate Middleton had to send an email to her friends to tell them to stop calling with a C
Bridgetemail to why?
Colleencuz she had to switch it for
Bridgetroyalty mm-hmm that's so dumb Royal purposes. Who cares if you're Kate or Catherine now See, that's what I mean, like that's so
ColleenI know I just think it's
BridgetRidiculous. Uh, have you ever watched the crown.
ColleenNo, but I've been meaning too.
BridgetSo I have, and this season is about princess Diana. So I figured I would do a princess Diana deep dive for a sec,
Colleeniconic. Her fits her
Bridgetoutfits her outfits, specifically her relationship with her husband. Okay. Okay. You ready Yep. So Diana, when she grew up, she was part of a very wealthy family.
Colleenpart of the They killed her.
Bridgetthey're basically neighbors with the queen. She was an aristocrat. Like she she's from wealth. And After school, she moves to London and she becomes like a nanny and a housekeeper and a kindergarten
Colleencomes up
BridgetHumble queen. She's so good with kids watching her and videos. Talk to children is the sweetest. She always kneels down to them. She never looks down. She actually gets to their eye level. She's just really sweet and kind, uh, she meets Charles and Charles is actually dating Diana's older sister.
Colleenoh I didn't know that
BridgetYeah. Sarah Spencer is her older sister and apparently she met a journalist and Sarah Spencer was like, oh, I would never marry him. I don't care if he's king. I don't care who he is. I'm not marrying him. And he broke up with her because of it. And so I guess it was still amicable though, because the way they talked about it is they were still in the same circles. So they're all still hanging out. Diana was 16 when they first met the love of Charles's life. Is this woman named Camilla and he's with her now. Camilla Parker, bells, Camilla Parker BOS.
Colleennow. Mm-hmm
Bridgetbowls
Colleenballs, park her balls.
BridgetGod, we're so fucking, American So they dated in the seventies and then Charles went to serve his country. He went to the Navy and so she started dating other people, but they remained quote, unquote, really good friends. So he meets Diana and he's 12 years her senior,
Colleenseat.
Bridgetwhich no biggie have, you know, do, do what you get do. And at a party in 1980, Charles had lost his uncle, his mentor, like the uncle he was closest to and Diana went up to him at the party and was like, I'm so sorry about your uncle. I know how close you were to him. And I saw you at. His funeral and it made me so sad. I could tell how heartbroken you were. And her empathy is like, what won him over, like really appealed to him. So he starts bringing her around. They start dating. The paparazzi gets a hold of it. There's a video of her going out to her car when they're still dating in the paparazzi are everywhere. She cannot even get into her own car. They're engaged within six months of dating.
ColleenDave nuts
BridgetThey got married truly out of convenience into produce an air. It was a shit show from the beginning. So a few weeks before the wedding, Diana finds a bracelet and on the bracelet are the letters F and G and Fred and Gladys were Camilla in Charles' nicknames for each other pet names. Yeah. It's from like a TV show, I guess. And Diana was absolutely devastated. And Charles was basically like, this is my goodbye. Present to her. He had to hand deliver it two days before their wedding sus SAS uh, when they were on their honeymoon, he was wearing cuff links that had two CS intertwined. I think at one point she compared almost to like, looking like the Chanel logo, but
Colleenyeah
BridgetCamilla and Charles. okay. And she goes, did Camilla send those to you? And he was like, what's the big deal. If friends send me a gift,
Colleenmm-hmm
Bridgetknow the fact that you're wearing cuff links with your letter and you know what I mean? It's just so yeah, just ridiculous. They both start having affairs.
Colleenhaving it. Oh, I didn't know that
BridgetYeah. So Diana falls in love with their horse trainer? Their horse. Her, yeah. I mean, she was having her time. They were very miserable. Diana was very lonely. It just like was not a good marriage. They, one time went, I forget what country they were going to. They looked so miserable. They were standing next to each other, not touching that the press called them the gloves. Like, they were not
Colleenrespect to her for not hiding it,
Bridgetit but right. But the world was falling in love with her. And what killed them? The Royals is that Charles no one would even glance at him. he hated being second place to her. So they would walk on a red carpet into an event and people would be chanting her name and no one would be even
ColleenChan
Bridgethim. And he did not like it So they nickname her, the people's princess. I mean, she is an icon. So not only is she the people's princess, but she's also kind and empathetic and smart and elegant, but she's actually kind of shy, but she apparently is so charismatic. Every single thing I read was like, you immediately warm to her. She was just one of those people. You were like a magnet. Okay. Big things that she did. She was a philanthropist. There was a really big misconception about aids that it was transmitted through like touching
Colleenmisconception Oh my God, It's giving modern day leprosy. it's so
Bridgetstupid. It's so fucking stupid. She went to a hospital in New York city. She did a solo trip to New York and she went to the Harlem hospital in no us president had been there. No politician at all had been there. She walked in, she shook all of their hands with elk gloves on all of the staff. All the people worked there, picked up babies who had aids, kissed them, talked to them and it just absolutely blew the world. Like talk about MythBusters. The people's princesses hugged up baby with aids and it was fine. Like get over yourself. She did with leprosy too. She did.
ColleenOh I didn't know that either Yeah. She
BridgetShe shook someone's hand without a glove with leprosy and she was like, yeah, these people don't need to be shunned. They're not repulsive. They're
ColleenYeah They're people
BridgetThey're. fucking human beings. She was a huge supporter of foundations that had to do with cancer. She was a big advocate for education on top of being a fashion icon. Mm-hmm her outfit that black dress, it went off the shoulders. It was cinched in the middle and she wore like a Pearl choker with a massive diamond in the middle mm-hmm oh my God. Oh my God parish She was big, uh, supporter of mental health. She was a feminist. She got them humanitarian of the year award. The us gave her that award.
ColleenI don't even a member of the country
Bridgetshe, no, she had an auction and sold all of her dresses to charity. She's the best.
Colleenwas
BridgetUh, yeah. So the queen and prince Villa at one point, sit them down are like you guys are causing a scene. Please stop and like reconciling get over yourselves. It did not work they split up in 1992 and they got divorced in 1996. And yeah, she went on to date. Some other people
Colleencould
Bridgetso they were not supposed to, and it got, it got so tumultuous. And at the time again, the paparazzi were, she could not breathe. They were so cruel and they were so much crap going on and they were both hiding multiple affairs. And he was with Camilla the whole last time. And at one point, him and Camilla had phone sex and they released it.
Colleenit.
BridgetYep. And then she had a conversation with one of her guys and they, that, and like gate was getting put on the end of every word. You know what? It was like scandal all of the time. And there was a book that came out that called Diana her true story in her own words. And the author, Andrew Mor. Basically said I have it on good authority. This information is from her closest friends and family. People say she was part of it that she recorded with a friend and then handed it to him and was like, go, I want my story told. Yeah, she did an interview with BBC. At one point it packed the pub's BBC news usually had 800,000 viewers. They had 8 million for this interview. 8 million people in like 1990 Yes, Oprah very similar. And she goes, well, there were three of us in the marriage, so it got a bit crowded. like just right out. And at one point they asked her, do you think you'll ever be queen? And she says, no. And they're like, why not? And she's like, the people may love me, but the institution does not. She just didn't, you know, in vows, it's like, I promise to always obey you She wouldn't say it. So they had to take it outta the ceremony. So she just wasn't this, like she got it. Yeah, she was, she was not gonna follow the rules. She was gonna do her own thing. Usually with the Royal family, they have a nannies that pick out their clothes and they go to specific schools and she fired all of them. She was like, I will pick, she picked out her kids' clothes every day. She picked out what schools they went to. She picked out their meals, which is just not how it works in that
Colleenmm-hmm
BridgetAnd then she unfortunately did pass away at a car accident. It was August 31st, 1997. She was with her boyfriend she was 36. They were at a restaurant eating dinner at the Ritz in Paris. And they tried to get outta there if they were gonna get hounded by paparazzi. And for a long time, it was like she died because of this high speed chase and the paparazzi made the car crash and the tunnel and all this stuff. They did another investigation in 2006 and the driver was three times over the legal alcohol limit. And he was also on prescription drugs. And so they say that he was going too fast and lost control of the car. The car is very upsetting to look at, and none of them were wearing seat belts. Her kids at her funeral, there's so little. and I just felt so bad. Anyway, her funeral was watched by billions of people with a B again, remember this is 1997. That is, I, I can't think of, I was gonna say it's not even comparable, really outpouring of love from all over the world. People just loved her. And, uh, prince Charles and Camilla are now married Mm-hmm and she wears that bracelet to this day that he made for her before he got married to Diana. And it's funny because when I see the interviews between her two children, I think Harry is just like her, I don't know, his passion for philanthropy reminds me a lot of the way his mother spoke.
ColleenThat makes sense.
BridgetPrince Harry said she was using her position as princess of Wales, the most famous woman in the world to challenge everyone, to educate themselves, to find their compassion and to reach out to those who need help instead of pushing them away. We use the word icon a lot. She is the definition of an
ColleenThere's very few that actually. hold that term and She's one of
Bridgetthem, people all over the world, grieved when she died,
ColleenShock the world shock
Bridgetdo you think that the Royal family had something to do with killing
Colleentalk about yes.
BridgetYou do.
ColleenI mean, I feel like they hated her so much and like, what are the odds, that that would happen, But there's so many things that they have in place for their safety. So like the fact that that happened is just like wild. It's like too crazy to be.
BridgetYeah. I did see somewhere and again, I didn't put it in there cuz I, I don't know if it's a good source, but I saw somewhere her, the first love of her life died tragically in an accident. And Diana herself said they killed him.
Colleenoh I didn't know that
BridgetYeah. So I definitely think they were up to some shady shit. God only knows if those walls could talk.
Colleentalk. Camilla's. a whore.
BridgetWhy
ColleenI don't know I just
Bridgetjust yeah, the, the people are definitely, some are, she'll always be the other woman. She's a slut and other people are like, no, she's great. But how do you ever, ever compare to Diana? You don't, you just don't don't and she's not going away. The princess on HBO's the documentary I watched. I definitely recommend it. They talk about it. It is a bit of a bummer because her life was definitely not easy. I mean, she started dating him. when she was 19. Imagine getting thrown into that when you're 19, 20 years old. Absolutely. It's just so crazy. I hope they didn't have anything to do with it, but who's to say
Colleenhave any who's to say, She also like she is biker shorts. She brought those back.
BridgetYeah Now you can't even show your knees anymore So she got in right right in time Diana
Colleenprince William or prince Harry
Bridgetprince prince Harry forever.
ColleenIt's just obvious cuz what's his name's fucking
BridgetIt's not even the hair loss for me. It's just the general demeanor. I will say when Harry and Megan got married, I was on a bachelorette and it was on and we were all watching it. We were all so hungover. And so we were passing around mimosa and watching their wedding. And I remember Harry looked at Megan and said something along the lines of you look so beautiful. I am so lucky in women all over quaking, the world we're gushing. And I was like, yeah, it's his bride on their wedding day. Bare What? The bar's so low, the devil's doing pull ups. Like, what are we fucking doing here? Um, you know what I mean?
ColleenYeah. That's true. That's like, what else are you supposed
Bridgetsay on? Is that a nice thing to say? Of course it is credit where credit is due bare minimum mom.
ColleenYeah. Fair enough. Fair enough.
BridgetWomen were like, oh my God, did you hear? He said he was lucky. That's crazy. It's like good
ColleenYou were born lucky. And you're fucking Royal family.
Bridgetbitch.
ColleenI have a question. So obviously like Charles is Mr. Like Head honcho. Right. below them. But if he had so many other siblings, like what made Charles
Bridgethe was probably the eldest
Colleenis that what it is?
BridgetYeah. He's probably the eldest boy also prince Andrew scum of the fucking earth buddies with Jeffrey Epstein now disgraced he's so disgusting. Deserves to rot in the deepest, deepest pits of.
Colleenthaty. Oh, um, there's a bitch named I don't know how they're related. I, I don't understand, but Princess Beatrice. dude Her fucking picture on Google. Whoever chose that should be shunned from the earth. just just Google her name and just see the first photo Whoever decides the photo for all of that.
BridgetNo, that's rude. I would be pissed.
ColleenIs that the one? Oh my God. I can't one, maybe mine looked different on my phone, but I literally gasped when I But I forget
BridgetShe's prince Andrew's eldest daughter.
ColleenLike I'm scared. blink twice if you're okay.
Bridgethonestly, she's not with her dad
Colleennot truly. Oh, is that who her big poppy is? Yeah. Got it That makes so
Bridgetmore sense.
Colleenand the siblings is princess Eugenie Okay.
BridgetThe hats at the weddings, the
Colleenhat Eugenie went to school with Kate Middleton. Same boarding school
BridgetThey're all in the same sphere, even if they're not. Yeah. You know, they all hang together Yeah. All those rich
ColleenOh my God. They got hell spawn How many fucking kids do these people
BridgetNo, I don't think those are all their
Colleenone Oh. I was like, okay. Eugenie close them legs.
BridgetWould you wanna be Royal if you had the chance?
ColleenYeah I think so Yeah
BridgetEven after everything we just discussed,
ColleenI mean, I guess not, but I feel like I could use some, even though I say I hate roles I, I could use some I could use a
Bridgetclean up your
ColleenI could use a routine. I could use some roles but like, would I like it? I don't know. The offer's never
BridgetShould we make roles?
Colleengirl? No Cause there's no like punishment.
Bridgetdon't shit on men. Literally. have to say. Don't physically shit on anybody. Actually.
ColleenI remember how the other day we talked about, um, and I was like there's Stay tuned. There's gonna be another one, We're three for three every week. There's gonna be a new one next week. I don't know what's gonna
Bridgetone Yeah. Why is everyone just like letting it go from every
ColleenLiterally every hole
Bridgetno holes are safe.
ColleenNo holes are safe. Oh goodness. Grass
BridgetYou.
Are you ready for the pause of the story of the week? Yes, I have one really good one. Okay. Okay. Vince Gill is a really famous country music singer. Do you know him? He's older. Yeah. He recently was honored. They're doing a special called CMT giants and he is one of them. He goes way, way, way, way back during this whole evening, there's a bunch of big performances from Brad Paisley. Chris Stapleton, Marin Morris, Carrie Underwood, et cetera. They were all there to honor him. The best part of the evening though, was his daughter. So his daughter gets up. And I saw this on CMTS TikTok, so I'll repost it. Okay. His daughter, Jenny tells the story that she's in the first grade. She really wanted to play in her school's talent show and she knows her dad plays guitar very well. And she asked him to come play so that she could sing. He's very famous at this point. And so they're practicing you are my sunshine. Yep. And so the school talent show is that Saturday. So they practice every day that week and he gets a call and it's an invitation for him to play at the Opry. Now, if you know nothing about country music, the Opry is the pinnacle for country music stars. It is where the biggest and the best play period. And he says, what day is it? No, it's not the same day and it's Saturday. And he says, I can't make it. In that Saturday, he went to an elementary school and played the guitar so that his six year old daughter could sing. You are my sunshine. Wow. At the end of this speech, there's not a dry eye of the place. Vince is crying, everybody's crying. He then gets up and says, Here's the best part of that story. Fast forward, many, many years later, she's getting married and we're trying to figure out the father-daughter dance and we can't figure out the right song. And she calls me on the phone one day and she says, I have the perfect song. And he says, so do I? And they both say you are my sunshine and it was their first dance. I gotta chill. Isn't that? So sweet. Ugh. I just shout out to really good dads. Period
