CAROLE MIDDLETON - FAKE ROYAL GAUCHE-CLIMBER/GROOMER/TYRANT

I cannot look at those two mean hateful people and their three Middleton spawn. They are bullies and liars. They drove a blood prince, his wife and their infant child out of their country with relentless endeavor. All to enhance their worthless selves. And no one in the BRF stepped up to stop it or to help Harry and his family. Why is this accepted behavior? What is wrong with the UK and the BRF? This is just unbelievable!!!!

By RICHARD EDEN FOR THE DAILY MAIL and OLIVIA JONES FOR MAILONLINE

PUBLISHED: 17:13 EST, 3 February 2023 | UPDATED: 20:29 EST, 3 February 2023

Carole Middleton's company has seen a 'terrible Christmas' of business and is now in a dispute with suppliers over their payment agreement, it has emerged.

The Princess of Wales’s mother owns party decoration supplier, Party Pieces.

It was founded in 1987 when Carole was looking for inspiration for her daughter Kate's fifth birthday party.

But the company faced difficulty over the recent festive period with a dip in customer spending due to the cost of living crisis.

Carole, who famously started the business on her kitchen table, is now reportedly doing her utmost to bolster its prospects and has taken on the challenge herself by dealing directly with suppliers.

A source told the Daily Mail: ‘Carole’s been explaining that it’s been a terrible Christmas — made worse by the postal strikes.

‘She’s emphasised that she’d like to continue doing business with them [the suppliers] but would like terms allowing Party Pieces 90 days [in which to pay for goods] rather than the usual 30 days.’

However, Carole's appeal to suppliers has so far been unsuccessful.

‘They’re saying, “No” to 90 days’ credit,’

Carole admitted a year ago that the company was operating in a 'competitive market', adding: 'We work hard to stay ahead of the trends and ensure we have original designs and “I wish I’d thought of that” products.’

Aside: Straight to comments. Some deliciously rancid.

The business is now a limited company with investors, and directors, on board. So Mrs Middleton will have less say in how the business is run now. She and her husband did well to start and develop the business.

She has been losing money for years. End 2021 owed 1.353 million. No postal strike then. Living off Royal connection and creditors have fallen for it. The wife of former soccer an even worse business operator but he seems to willing to secure her creditors. CMs creditors are stuffed.

Not to mention her stuff is cheesy tat you can get for $1 anywhere. The party industry has gone down the tube after the pandemic. It has nothing to do with a postal strike and everything to do with she has products that cost to much for what they are and you can get anywhere.

Too lazy? Lack of capital more like it. Many entrepreneurs hire others to do much of the work and according to people who claimed to work for her in the early days she was no different. I think they were pretty successful, but I don't believe the business paid for everything. I have trusts and they were pretty easy to find. Jealous of what? Bills? They have that mansion to pay for, because they reportedly had a large loan.

He wasn't a pilot, he was a flight despatcher. He was from a middle class family and there was a trust fund for the children's education. Pippa had a sports scholarship for Marlborough. They worked very hard at their business and were in the right place at the right time.
