Welcome to dark dynasties, the podcast where we focus on different
rich and powerful families who have ultimately expose themselves to be
corrupt. Messed up and well, very dark.
OLIVIA 0:24
This episode we'll be talking about maybe the most famous family ever
loyal family,
SYD 0:29
as in the Windsors
OLIVIA 0:30
we've seen their ups and downs, victories and defeats, and scandals,
SYD 0:34
a lot of scandals.
I'm Syd.
OLIVIA 0:36
And I'm Olivia. And this episode is about the British royal families
corruption affairs and scandals.
SYD 0:42
You're listening
to Dark Dynasties
OLIVIA 0:52
the royal family and relationship drama they go together like peanut
butter and chocolate right? Yeah, they
SYD 0:59
go they go together in a lot of different ways. We're going to be
going into all of this specific relationship drama.
OLIVIA 1:05
Yeah,
we're gonna be getting into a lot of funny specifics and relationship
drama.
SYD 1:09
Last episode, we talked about the family's relationship to Nazis. And
yeah, there was a lot of stuff there stuff there. But first, we do
want to acknowledge the more international scandals surrounding this
family like apartheid, colonialism, war crimes, and just in general a
horrifying list of atrocities as colonizers.
OLIVIA 1:32
Well, this podcast episode will be more specifically focused on more
of their personal scandals. Obviously, there are scandals that have
affected their nation as well as other nations that everyone in charge
should be held accountable for. So just that's our little disclaimer.
Yeah, talking about some silly things here and there and you're like,
Guys, what about all of the actual really apartheid? Yeah, no, that's
that is that's your valid? Yeah. So valid
SYD 1:57
when you think of royal family relationship drama. Do you just think
of Charles and Camilla?
OLIVIA 2:03
That's usually the first thing I think of.
SYD 2:04
Yeah.
So just a quick note, let's
OLIVIA 2:07
do a quick recap. I feel like there's certain people, many people in
the world do know but if there's a certain group of people in the
world that don't know what tampon gate is,
SYD 2:17
yeah, Charles was cheating on his wife at the time. The
OLIVIA 2:21
wonderful Lady Di.
SYD 2:22
Yeah, well, we love Di.
OLIVIA 2:23
I love Diana. Charles, apparently loved her less than we love her. He
was not feeling it.
SYD 2:31
And the Queen knew Oh, yeah, people were pretty aware.
OLIVIA 2:35
And so he's cheating with another woman who is married Camilla, during
this whole scandal that broke down that showed, you know, oh, he's
cheating on Diana with Camilla. There were recorded phone calls
between Charles and Camilla
SYD 2:47
Referred to as "tampongate."
OLIVIA 2:51
So they're having these sexy conversations, and it's all being
recorded,
SYD 2:55
like, Oh, I wish I were next to you. Like, they're
OLIVIA 2:58
like, oh, I want to go up and down and in and out of you like this,
like all very that. She's like, but at a certain point, he says, you
know, like, gosh, and this is all paraphrasing, but he says like,
Gosh, I wish I could just live in your trousers. Because wouldn't that
be easier? That's not something I would ever wish. No, I wouldn't ever
wish anyone I mean, I don't even really like wearing pants because I
think they're constricting already. If there was a full adult man
inside a pair of pants somewhere and lived there, I would just only
wear dresses.
SYD 3:28
So this man in a sexy way says God, I wish I lived inside your pants.
Yeah.
OLIVIA 3:33
And she's like, Oh, what if you were you know, reincarnated into a
pair of my underwear. Like, what if you came back as a pair of my
underwear and then he says, Oh God, or what if I was a Tampax? Just my
luck, right? Haha. What if I was a Tampax?
SYD 3:48
This is really frightening
OLIVIA 3:49
now that obviously, it was not meant to be shared with the world. No
is meant to be private. Yeah, sometimes when you're having a dirty
talk session with someone you try something out and it does not work.
And that sucks. When that has been recorded and shown to the entire
world. Yeah, let the guy cheat on his wife and let the terrible guy
cheat on his nice wife and peace. But that Tampax reference him being
like, I want to be your tampon Loki was the piece of gold that no one
could let go of in the media. It's crazy. If you say that and your
royalty, they're never gonna let that go. So hence the name
SYD 4:27
tampon gate. Yeah, it was one of those things where he thought he was
being sexy at some point. It wasn't
OLIVIA 4:33
just took a hard left into that's not sexy anymore. And you know, I
think that that happens sometimes. So
SYD 4:38
that leads us into a segment called It's Sexy Until It Isn't.
OLIVIA 4:46
We're going to share some pickup lines that start off as sexy and then
veer into hard tampongate territory by not being sexy at all. Okay,
I'll go first. Okay. God your ass is so perfect. I just want to be
your diapie.
SYD 5:03
Yeah, I would say that that is hard left. I'm gonna give the first
part a 10 right first sentence. Yeah, second sentence I'm going to
give three. Okay, amazing. Here's what your face is so pretty. I wish
I could cut it off and wear it on my face.
OLIVIA 5:20
Yeah,
that's not that's just go straight to
SYD 5:22
Sure. Are you sure you don't like it? Okay, God, I thought this was
the day I'd win you over
OLIVIA 5:27
what about
like, oh, I can't stop thinking about your body or the fact that I'm
gonna go to Chili's later.
SYD 5:34
I actually give that whole thing at 10
OLIVIA 5:36
Okay, I mean that that would just be someone being honest about their
thoughts.
SYD 5:38
Yeah, I
think I think it's important for there to be a level of honesty
OLIVIA 5:41
and someone
sharing their excitement to go to Chili's later on top of their dirty
talk
SYD 5:45
and you know I'm excited for them because the quesadilla salad is
facing
OLIVIA 5:49
the quesadilla
salad is the the least sexy phrase I've ever fucking heard
SYD 5:53
and my you know well the food also kind of within it like the the menu
items sounds like what it's going to give you later
OLIVIA 5:59
it sounds like it sounds like it's gonna give you a case explosion
explosive diarrhea. Yeah, absolutely. All right, so Wow, I
SYD 6:06
can't believe we said the words explosive diarrhea in the sexy
segment. Yeah,
OLIVIA 6:10
give me another sexy pickup line Syd.
SYD 6:12
I love your lips. Oh,
I wish I was your cold sore.
OLIVIA 6:17
Oh, yeah. No that that that did it for me.
SYD 6:19
Did it do it? Great. That was that gives you a lady erection. Yeah,
absolutely. Okay.
OLIVIA 6:24
Oh, your breasts are so huge. Now. I must check them for lumps.
SYD 6:29
I think that's actually great.
OLIVIA 6:31
Okay, well, you like mine too much. You like all my pitches too much.
They're supposed to be awful. I'm fighting so many positives because
that's amazing.
SYD 6:39
Because you know, people should help each other out and check for true
OLIVIA 6:43
it's not sexy, but it is helpful. It's helpful and it's good and
sometimes that's more important and helpful than being sexy. Okay, how
about this? Oh, your hair
SYD 6:51
is so sexy. I want to make a teddy bear out of it and fuck it until I
die
OLIVIA 6:56
A 10
out of 10 There's nothing wrong with you. Okay, perfect. And that was
a segment call it's sexy until it isn't
SYD 7:10
sponsored by the quesadilla explosion salad. It's an explosion
OLIVIA 7:15
it's an explosion that'll give you an explosion later.
SYD 7:18
But don't let tampon gate distract you from everything else. You're
gonna have a lot a lot
OLIVIA 7:23
of weird scandals. You've got some cradle robbing that gardeners
cradle robbing a gardener cradle rubbing a garden out when when you
when a gardener is in a cradle and you rob that cradle. Wow. Yeah, we
got a bunch. We've got sex tours. We've got we've got a lot of we got
a lot of stuff.
SYD 7:40
Here's something that's not really cute.
OLIVIA 7:42
Oh, here's
a throwback scandal. Yeah,
SYD 7:44
this was a good throwback.
OLIVIA 7:46
Okay, this
is one of the earliest scandals we'll be talking about on this
specific episode. Yeah.
SYD 7:50
Last episode, we talked about George the fifth. I'm sure you guys
remember.
OLIVIA 7:54
He's the guy who was like, I never wanted to be king. I am best
friends with my cousin Nicolas. And I am going to let him die and be
killed by the Bolsheviks because I'm not going to let him into England
because I don't want to seem pro Germany.
SYD 8:08
Yeah, he was
the king. He had a lot of kids he had like, I think six six.
OLIVIA 8:12
He had six kids with his dead brother's fiancee. Yeah,
SYD 8:15
you know, that'll do that. how
OLIVIA 8:17
that goes. But one of the kids was Prince Edward a Nazi. Sure. Just
thrown that in there again, last episode,
SYD 8:23
and one of the kids will probably be somebody you haven't really heard
of. Right. Right. Right. And that person is Prince John. Right, Prince
John. So when Prince John was 11 years old, he was moved from his home
and effectively vanished from the public eye. No one saw him ever
again.
OLIVIA 8:38
No one's and you might be going like Prince John. That's interesting.
I don't really know a bunch of royal figures with the name, John. And
it's because they're because of this Prince John. Yeah, so it's not
because of him. It's because of his family sucking.
SYD 8:51
Basically, all of these names have been reused since for example, or
Edward may Henry George, but John stopped here. This was the last John
in this lineage. He suffered from epilepsy and a lot of historians
believe that he also had autism or was on the autism spectrum. And his
family decided to hide him. Apparently, at that time, a lot of people
who had disabilities were just hidden in farmhouses, seeing hidden and
not being put in the public eye
OLIVIA 9:19
really bad really bad
and I'm sure not being in any way shape or form taken care of like a
human being like,
SYD 9:25
well, definitely not being given the resources they probably needed.
They could definitely afford Yeah, so they Yeah, that's
OLIVIA 9:32
even more fucked, like they could afford to help them and like them
all their resources and then said they're like, no, no, I'm actually
gonna just gonna banish you.
SYD 9:39
Yeah, no, you're embarrassing for me. Yeah. So the family set him to
live on a farm with a nanny.
So while I will say that John's mother Mary was concerned and I guess
invited children to play at the farm so that he could, you know,
meet children and stuff like that maybe tried to an extent get tried
to some extent but it just wasn't how you read the lesson and you
know, an extent No, not okay at all.
And so he lives on this farm with this nanny. And this wasn't an
uncommon thing to do with a person who had a disability, which isn't
saying it was pretty cruel.
And he was never seen in public again. So John is not featured in any
of George's official biography is,
OLIVIA 10:19
and Edward, basically, in letters really criticized the way that
George treated John Edward was John's brother, his oldest brother,
and he heavily criticized the way that George treated him. No one
really knows the exact details, but that was kind of the point.
SYD 10:36
Yeah. And I think that, you know, a lot of historians have speculated
that the treatment of John by George was probably influenced by the
treatment of George's father.
You know, he had an absent father who was not great to him. And that
just kind of goes it's it's cycles. Yeah, it's it's in cycles, like
every other episode of this podcast, we talk about how dynasties work
in cycles. And there are all of these really strange recurring bits.
OLIVIA 11:03
Worst part of the prince John's story is Prince John actually died of
an epileptic seizure when he was 13. Yeah, but his mom, like kind of
came out and said, like a totally different story.
SYD 11:15
Yeah, I guess his mom had said something along the lines of You know,
he passed in his sleep.
And you know, God took him back. And it was really peaceful. He wasn't
in pain. And I did not sound this could be my own. Yeah.
You know, yeah. Not totally understanding of what an epileptic seizure
is. But I would call that probably painful and bad and not in your
sleep.
OLIVIA 11:38
I would say that it's definitely bad.
SYD 11:41
Yeah, I don't think those statements totally match. Yeah,
OLIVIA 11:45
basically, what we're learning here is just to always be pouring one
out for Prince John, rest in peace, Prince John. Sorry.
SYD 11:53
And the BBC actually made a drama. Last prince, and it's about John so
I'm going to be watching that and go check that out. If you guys want
to watch that. Let us know what you think I haven't seen it yet. But
sounds pretty cool. And
OLIVIA 12:07
then of course, just going down some some family tree lineage to show
how we're gonna get to the Queen really quickly. George's other son,
Edward, the one who was a Nazi on the bad side, but then on the good
side was like, Hey, don't treat my little brother like that. So that's
one good thing that guy did. And everything else he did was bad, I
guess. Um, and so you know, he became king later than abdicate the
throne. So he could marry his mistress, who was also a Nazi, but she
was an American and a divorcee. And it ended up being weird and he
just kind of devoted his life to bad Nazi stuff. So his younger
brother, because he abdicated the throne, his younger brother became
King George the six, and his daughter was Queen Elizabeth. So now
we're here now we're gonna go
SYD 12:46
Yeah, so we know Queen Elizabeth. Yeah. And
OLIVIA 12:49
we have well, Queen Elizabeth was doing her seven years of, of rain
and all of her colonizing. She did
SYD 12:59
her sister was getting up to her own stuff. This was Princess
Margaret. Yeah,
OLIVIA 13:04
Princess Margaret. Princess. You know, here's something funny and this
is just a little my opinion. Everyone says that Princess Margaret was
gorgeous was glamorous. And it's like when you walked in when you walk
in the room it was like oh my god there she is. Yeah. And they also
said that Wallace the woman Wallis Simpson was so
SYD 13:23
ugly it's been cited in in a lot of like history books that Wallace
was not very attractive which is so funny
OLIVIA 13:30
see any of these people as looking any different from one another? I
know I kind of bad but I think all just look like early 1900s royalty
or like British people like they all have the same face to me.
SYD 13:41
Yeah, it's so funny. Like, I don't know if we mentioned this last
episode or not. But yeah, they all look the same to me. They all just
look like white people. I don't know what
OLIVIA 13:49
to tell you. But like I mean, listen, I don't like Wallace because
she's a Nazi. No, of course not. But I'm saying like She's so ugly and
Margaret Margaret is gorgeous and then looking at pictures and the
like they're they're just white wearing with dark hair. I don't know.
It's hard for me to tell to so according to the general public
Princess Margaret was just like the absolute hottest shit and sure
everyone was loving it. They she was talking to town she was a
socialite she's famous. People loved her. She was married to a
photographer Antony Armstrong Jones and their marriage was not good.
They did not like that.
SYD 14:19
Yeah, Margaret would eventually divorce her husband which was
obviously its own massive scandal. We know the Royals don't
OLIVIA 14:26
love divorce Queen sister getting a divorce. Yeah, but before
SYD 14:29
they'd made it official, they were seeing other people
OLIVIA 14:34
right and one of the main people that Margaret was seeing was Roddy
Llewellyn. Yeah, now get this shit. Okay. Ronnie Llewellyn was 17
years younger than Margaret. Okay. And he was a gardener who wanted to
be a pop star. So I love him. We just so much really think about that
for a second because like,
SYD 14:58
God give this guy a TV show. What? Like,
OLIVIA 15:01
what were their conversations like? Like was she being like God, you
know, just stick with me you're gonna be Popstar when he was like, Oh
yeah, I heard it and
SYD 15:11
it's just so crazy to me to think that this guy was a gardener who
wanted to be a pop star who was making sweet sweet love who a woman 17
years older than him who was married and the Queen sister.
OLIVIA 15:24
Yes, this guy's life is kind of crazy. This guy's life is a
telenovela. It really is like yes is there's this doesn't happen to
anyone who many plot points in this one guy's life. God, I
SYD 15:36
love it. BBC pick that up
OLIVIA 15:39
on guys. The real scandal was was when a picture of him and Margaret.
Were just like enjoying some sunshine at a beachside Villa and 76.
There were pictures taken. Everyone was like, whoa, hold on. And now
who's that gardener who wants to be a pop star? That's not her
SYD 15:54
husband. And now all of a sudden the Royals are forced to acknowledge
the embarrassment of Margaret's separation from her husband. Yeah. And
they don't they don't want to talk about that. They want to keep
everything prim and proper lately.
OLIVIA 16:05
Absolutely. Yeah. That's what happens when you when you meet the
gardener and the gardener is younger and he wants to be a pop star.
Well, here's the thing. Your whole family is ashamed.
SYD 16:16
I really hope that Roddy Llewellyn got his own solo career, you know,
I hope that he at least got one single if you found any singles Yeah.
Any good mixtape? Yeah, good. Mixed everybody Lulu row it our way
because yeah, Mo events and I would love to hear that. I'd love to
hear some lyrics that are like, Oh, you're the queen in my heart, even
though you're not the Queen to the public. Yes, I want us.
OLIVIA 16:36
I think that's really good.
SYD 16:40
Okay, now here's another scandal. Yeah. Here's another scandal. Yeah.
We were told something about sex tour. Yes, sex tours was going on
with the royal family and sex.
OLIVIA 16:50
Okay, I will. Let's get into who Sophie is. So Sophie Rhys Jones is
the Countess of Wessex and Forfar.
SYD 16:59
Yeah. And she is married to Prince Edward who is Charles his younger
brother
OLIVIA 17:03
Charles isn't Charles and di Charles and Camilla, younger brother
Edward, married to this woman Sophie. So there are multiple Edwards
here. So there in 2001 A reporter who pretended to be a potential
client of her firm came over and talked to her about you know, her
business and ended up recording the whole conversation in secret and
she just did so much damage by talking.
SYD 17:29
I mean, she dished on all of the Royals and they really don't love it
OLIVIA 17:33
well they hate when you do that. No, they hated especially what are
some of the stuff okay, so here's some of the things she she just said
candidly, to someone who should like we might be doing business
together. Let me just share all of this, who of course, was a reporter
recording everything she said. She said that Prime Minister Tony Blair
was ignorant of the countryside which was now engulfed by Foot and
Mouth Disease, to disease. Another thing is that Blair's wife, Cherie
is quote, even worse, she hates the countryside. Gotta go overwhelmed
with the people of the countryside.
SYD 18:05
She also reportedly commented on Prince Charles relationship with
Camilla, arguing that a marriage would not be possible as long as the
queen mother was alive. Oh,
OLIVIA 18:16
she also said the Conservative Party leader William Hague. Sounds like
a puppet, which is kind of a fun harmless comment. Actually, she said
sounds like a puppet, unfortunately.
SYD 18:29
And, you know, she was with her business partner. And her business
partner Marie Harkin was talking about his sex lies and cocaine use
and boasting about Sophie's abilities to secure celebrities for
different events and stuff. It's really wild.
OLIVIA 18:45
Yeah. They also, she mentioned that Prince Charles will, quote
unquote, always have a go at putting on a wig or doing something
silly. That can mean so much.
SYD 18:55
Like I would hope that people would say that about me. Yeah.
OLIVIA 18:59
Oh, she also said she was a lot more intelligent than Princess Diana.
Wow. Which is controversial boy. Now, here's some worse stuff. That's
also just so much to say in one conversation, say in one conversation
that you were the person you just met. But could it get any worse? Oh,
it sure could. I
SYD 19:16
believe we mentioned sex, total health luck, and
OLIVIA 19:18
yet could get so much worse. So after all of the dirt that she was
spilling on her family. She decided to be like, Oh my God, by the way.
Yeah. Let me tell you about all of this weird sex stuff. We do. Yeah.
Which is a crate once again, crazy. You just
SYD 19:35
put it someone you do not know. So she and her partner offered to
procure young men and women. Yeah. Are the reporter Yeah, depending on
his preference. Yeah,
OLIVIA 19:45
they it says the firm can procure quote, unquote, nice boys for
clients. The quote was, how young does he like? Does he like Asian
boys? And how young 2021 2528 Oh, God, at least All of those are above
the age of consent. I
SYD 20:03
can't believe that's where we draw the line here like like that. We're
talking about so many mesto people were like, well,
OLIVIA 20:12
they also referred to with Prince Edwards sexuality. They said,
there's no smoke without fire. Meaning like, okay, something's going
on going on. And, of course, the craziest and worst thing that they
can arrange sex tours to the Far East now said do to sex tour. I'm
gonna be honest with you. I don't sex tours, as in sex tourism is a
thing people do. And this is not an official definition of it. This is
just my knowledge of it. Sure. It's a thing. Like kind of gross, awful
people do where they go to other countries where? Yeah, prostitution
is legal. But it's not necessarily like, necessarily good for the
football. Yeah, it's not like, okay, it's not an only fans where
someone's making all their own, you know, make it has.
SYD 21:01
Okay, so it's where the sex worker doesn't necessarily have best. No
one has the sex workers best interest in mind. Right. And the sex
worker probably isn't as safe as they could be. And it's not as
regulated as it could.
OLIVIA 21:13
Absolutely. Okay, so and the point of sex tourism, I guess, is to go
to these other countries so that you can have these crazy sexual
experiences, right, that you'd probably never be able to have in a
country with more real laws about sex. Right? So it's a lot of gray
area, but I'm going to say that none of it's good. I would say if you
want to, if you want to go on a on a tour of sex, call a bunch of
people who you know want to have sex with you set them up in different
cities, or find people in different cities and visit them at a bunch
of different motels. Big road trip Motel Six, two Motel Six, and
that's your tour of whatever country it is. You're in. Yeah, like for
example, why don't you just go from like Delaware to Oregon to
California. That's all one, Dmitri Yeah, it's all one country. Take a
tour of the United States of America with people whose consensually
want to have legal sex with you. Um, but that's not what they offered.
They offered sex tours. Okay, great. So
SYD 22:10
you know, obviously you know, the palace probably really they liked it
right. They were like, We love that released a statement saying that
the reported comments were selective, distorted and in several cases,
just flat out untrue.
OLIVIA 22:24
Both are so distinct. Oh, boy.
SYD 22:27
So the palace officials said that the Countess had not insulted the
queen, the Queen Mother or the politicians and the rumors about her
difficulties in marriage and her alleged comments about her husband
sexuality and all this stuff. were untrue.
OLIVIA 22:42
This statement is sponsored by gaslighting. Yeah,
SYD 22:47
yeah. And obviously, you know, the palace has no reason to want to
cover that.
OLIVIA 22:52
No, there'd be no reason they never cover anything up. They never want
to they never tried to cover up horrible horrible shit. No. But yeah,
so the recorded conversation was published in all the backlash and
speaking of undercover reporters, reporting embarrassing conversations
more check this one out. Okay.
SYD 23:09
Sarah Ferguson, the original Fergie. Yeah,
OLIVIA 23:12
the Duchess of York. She told another reporter pretending to be a
businessman. Anyone does a theme and you know, there's a part of me
that goes oh, that's that's not morally correct. But then it's like
doing that to the extremely rich and powerful maybe is morally
correct. Yeah.
SYD 23:28
There were probably cases where they find out some things that might
actually help them that there'd be
OLIVIA 23:32
no way that they could find out otherwise because they have so much
power. Yeah, so yeah, sure. I'd say go for it. Go for it. Borders not
SYD 23:40
totally against it. Um, so
OLIVIA 23:42
she had a meeting with this businessman and she told him listen, you
can access my ex husband Prince Andrew for half a million pounds.
SYD 23:53
Okay. What I have so many questions here okay. Access when you say you
can access my ex has not not in a sex tours way. No, no, no, no. Why
and that's not what I'm implying. I'm saying if if she gets 500 If she
gets $500,000 Yeah, you can what have lunch with him?
OLIVIA 24:13
i Okay, the thing she said in it sounded very vague was like I can
open the door for you to him and everything you've ever wanted will be
there now very vague.
SYD 24:26
Okay. Now the reason she's doing this because at first I was like, why
would she even be doing this? This doesn't really I
OLIVIA 24:31
mean, if I was trying to make side cash up my mind, I might be like,
SYD 24:34
I should like do delivery driver. Yeah, like I should do GrubHub or
like maybe I could like I wouldn't think let me sell meet and greets
with my ex right Right. Right. Right. Right. But basically the short
version of like why she was doing this is she had really bad lawyers
terrible. Lawyers. When Princess Diana divorce Charles she walked away
with $20 million. We love that. I mean, listen, that's such an amount
of money for her when Fergie You divorced Andrew, she got Are you
ready? Yep. $20,000 that's very
OLIVIA 25:04
different. It's a very different it's very different. And while it's
more than let's say I necessarily have sure it is less than I think a
duchess would be able to really live off of if they didn't massively
change their lifestyle. Oh, oh, yeah, easily
SYD 25:20
at one point after her divorce, Fergie admitted to having almost $4
million in debt. That's a lot of debt. Yeah, I know that we're calling
your Fergie to I mean, you know, it's, it's Forget it. So if you could
make half a million by like having someone meet your EQ, I mean,
according
OLIVIA 25:38
to the public, she said like Oh, my ex and I are best friends. We're
on such good terms. So don't really believe anything ever. I don't
believe anything. I know. I
SYD 25:48
don't believe when people say we're best but when you say of my ex and
our best friends, I don't believe you is wrong. You say my ex I are
still friendly or my ex and I are still friends. I might
