The Boys Don’t Hate Her, So Why Should Britain?
We already know about the British boy princes, 15-year-old William and 13-year-old Harry, attending the Spice Girls movie on Monday in the presences of dad, Prince Charles, and the movie stars themselves.
Nanny Tiggy Legge-Bourke even came along for the ride.
What’s new is the report that Charles invited the boys, but not himself, to a fox hunt that afternoon. Seems one of the riders was none other than Camilla Parker Bowles.
Royal observers speculate that this is only the latest ploy by Charles to position Parker Bowles in a role that the public would find palatable.
It may work. Now that Princess Diana, the boys’ mother and the woman who most despised Parker Bowles, is dead and buried.
Loose talk
Ricki Lake on the joys of motherhood vs. weight gain (in the New York Daily News): “I gained 35 pounds when I was pregnant. Now I’ve lost over 40 pounds and I could stand to lose another 15. It’s the bane of my existence and it always will be.”
Hey, HEY, you, YOU, get offa my… uh, I forget

We’d scream, too, about this breakup a bit
Jeff Colt’s marriage has fallen apart, and he’s filed for divorce. Nothing notable in that, except that the woman he’s divorcing after a seven-year relationship and a 2-1/2-marriage is none other than “Scream”/”Party of Five” star Neve Campbell, 24.
Have enough kids and some are bound to like you
When Anthony Quinn, 81, married former secretary Kathy Benvin, 35, earlier this month, their two small children were in attendance. Which is more than you can say for Quinn’s 10 kids from his previous marriages/relationships.
We know this much: She’s still a designing woman
Let’s continue this marriage theme: After eight years, Gerald McRaney is living in Utah and wife Delta Burke is living in New Orleans. He’s working on his television show, “Promised Land,” while she’s struggling to run a big-woman fashion business. Speculation is that they’re on the outs.
Sucking toes pool-side, though, obviously is OK
There are, apparently, some things that the Duchess of Windsor just won’t do. Sarah Ferguson turned down an offer to make a walk-on in the Broadway musical “Jekyll and Hyde.” “It could have been a walk-on, a part in the chorus,” said spokesman Howard Rubenstein. “It would only have been one night or a week at best.”
Auteur? So that’s how you say fecal matter in French
Wes Craven, director of the two “Scream” movies, loves to talk about his oeuvre. “After you stop moaning about being stereotyped as a horror guy, you can say, ‘I’m employed doing interesting movies that can be called, in some sense, auteur work,” he says.
