American Airlines flight attendant reads aloud handwritten note from Meghan Markle
Vida's now-viral TikTok video is captioned, 'No picture but I love a hand written note.'
'You guys will not believe who I had on my flight, who I had a pleasure of serving,' Vida said in the video from her hotel room. 'The queen, the princess, the Duchess of Sussex.'
Vida said Meghan was 'beautiful' in person, and praised her for being 'so sweet.' She said that Meghan shared the note with the crew after they gave her a handwritten note that read, 'It's a pleasure serving you! Love you real bad.' The crew's note was signed off as the 'AA girlies.'
'Dear AA girlies, thank you for the love, hospitality and handwritten note — you know me well,' Meghan wrote in return. 'All love right back to you.' Vida added that Meghan signed off with 'Forever, Meg.'
Vida also opened up about her brief personal exchange with Meghan, saying the Duchess complimented her manicure. 'She also said she loved my nails, and the captain on my last flight said they were intense,' Vida explained. 'So, sir, it doesn't matter what you think. The queen says she likes them.'
Meghan is known for being very fond of handwritten notes. Years ago, she wrote in her now-defunct lifestyle blog, The Tig, that 'handwritten notes are a lost art form.' 'The idea of someone taking the time to put pen to paper is really special,' Meghan said at the time.

Bryce Young Walks Mom Down Aisle During Parents' 30th Anniversary Renewal
It doesn't happen often that you spot an NFL quarterback swap out his helmet for a boutonniere, but that's what Bryce Young did this July. And it was not just for a red carpet or commercial shoot. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now Nope, this was all about the heart. The Carolina Panthers' franchise QB melted hearts around the internet. It was when he walked his mom, Julie Young, down the aisle at his parents' 30th wedding anniversary vow renewal. If you have only seen his pocket presence, wait until you experience his presence as a son. Bryce Young's mom is celebrating her marriage The lovely ceremony celebrated three decades of Craig and Julie Young's love; they got married in July 1995. Although the ceremony site has not been disclosed publicly, bits from the vow renewal appeared on TikTok and X (previously Twitter). That's where fans adored Bryce's thoughtful act. Dressed in a crisp suit, the ex-Heisman Trophy winner was beaming and tearful as he led his mother, setting the tone for a family scene that went viral in a matter of seconds. Julie, a 25-year special education teacher, has long been one of Bryce's biggest supporters. Intriguingly, she never informed her son that she was a college star soccer player until much later in life. "That's just the kind of person she is," Bryce once remarked, humble, dedicated, and never seeking that type of attention. Craig, Bryce's father, is a therapist for mental health who has been every bit as influential in forming the quarterback's down-to-earth, reflective way of living. He once stated that he and Julie made a concerted effort to have Bryce grow up in a household where love was not contingent upon success, victories, or awards but where character was paramount. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now No surprise that Bryce has always presented himself as collected and wiser than his age. This was not only a vow renewal but also a circle moment. From the Pasadena home where they instilled values in them to the big stage of the NFL, Bryce decided to pay tribute to the two individuals who laid the foundation for him. For Bryce Young, leadership doesn't end when the clock expires. Sometimes, it's about being there for your people in the most raw, human manner conceivable. Also read:

Meghan Markle could be making millions a week; experts reveal the one product that might turn into a goldmine
Meghan Markle and Prince Harry may be swimming in bankruptcy rumours, but a fresh Newsweek analysis of their lifestyle business paints a different picture. Markle's online shop, As Ever, is flying off the virtual shelves, from $9 teas to $30 bottles of wine, the products barely stay in stock. If she wanted, she could be pocketing millions just by scaling up supply. Also read: Prince Harry and Meghan Markle to handle Netflix crisis Obama-style as bankruptcy rumours grow; new projects in pipeline Though Netflix hasn't confirmed anything yet, there's been a lot of noise around the streamer not renewing the $100 million deal with the Montecito-based royals, especially after the couple's recent content setbacks. Meghan Markle, meanwhile, dropped her lifestyle brand As Ever back in April, and it started making noise from day one, even with the early backlash over trademark issues. Her top sellers $9 raspberry jams, $11 pancake and cookie mixes, and a $30 Napa Valley rosé, everything's been vanishing off shelves within minutes of each drop. After her first batch sold out in April, she followed it up with a second drop in June, and then amped things up with a wine launch on July 1, which went out of stock in no time. Behind the scenes, the couple had been building hype for months, quietly sending curated boxes to Hollywood A-listers and influencers. Newsweek dug into the numbers and found As Ever pulled in half a million page views during the second launch. If every visitor had grabbed just one jar of $9 jam, that's $4.5 million in a week. Realistically, not everyone buys, but even if a chunk did, and some splurged on $28 honey or $90 wine sets, the math still adds up to millions. Also read: Meghan Markle shares rare family photos in sweet tribute to Prince Harry on wedding anniversary However, a few things are still holding back Meghan's profits. Her team is keeping every drop limited and seasonal, which means she's cashing in only a fraction of what she could if supply actually met demand. And that $4.5 million is before cutting out costs (production, packaging, shipping, staff, marketing), and whatever's left has to be split with Netflix, which holds a stake in the brand. While Meghan wants to keep things exclusive, some experts warn that items like edible flower sprinkles ($15 for a tiny 0.18-ounce tin) and jams might come off more as novelty buys than essentials. People might try them once for curiosity, but they're not necessarily coming back. That said, brand analyst Nick Ede believes Meghan's real shot at building something lasting lies in wine. If she nails the next launch and manages to get bottles into global retail instead of just selling online, it could mean regular buyers, repeat orders, and real profits. She's currently planning to drop a sparkling wine later this summer, and if she gets that one right, it could be a game-changer for As Ever. Meanwhile, Prince Harry may be extending an olive branch to the Royal Family, but insiders say don't expect him to start playing by Buckingham Palace's rules anytime soon. A couple of weeks ago, his PR team was seen in London meeting with King Charles' chief of communications, fueling hope that the Sussexes, after failing to have it their way in America, might finally be ready to come back home. But a source close to the couple says Harry still doesn't like being 'controlled by the royal machinery', and that's unlikely to change.'

California woman crammed her hair with THIS and snagged a Guinness World Record. Watch video
In a world where most of us are still figuring out how to do a decent bun without triggering a hairline recession, Mizuki, a hairstylist from Japan, said, 'Hold my hairbrush,' and turned her scalp into a golf not just any golf course. We're talking 711 brightly coloured golf tees carefully jammed into a massive, cloud-like puff of hair that could rival Marie Antoinette on a Red Bull bender. The result? A hairdo so delightfully unhinged, it landed Mizuki in the Guinness World there were ever a crossover episode between Project Runway and The Masters Tournament, this would be the finale look. This wasn't a drunken dare, nor a TikTok stunt gone rogue. Mizuki is a professional hairstylist who clearly woke up one day and thought, 'You know what this updo needs? A thousand potential birdies.'And before you ask, yes, someone previously held this record with just 328 tees. Which now feels adorably minimalist. Mizuki didn't just beat the record; she tripled it, dunked on it, and then served it with a side of wasabi. The whole thing was done without glue, which makes it more impressive and mildly concerning. She used hairpins, sheer patience, and probably a prayer or two. And while we don't know how long it took, we can only assume it was somewhere between a Taylor Swift breakup album and an Ikea shelf officials confirmed the count. No, we don't know if anyone yelled fore! before checking her the internet went bananas and had there share of next for Mizuki? We hope a range of hair-based sports venues, perhaps a badminton court for fringe? A cricket pitch in a braid?But one thing's certain, she's now officially the patron saint of Bad Hair Days because she's proved you can always just accessorise with confidence... and 711 golf here's to Mizuki, breaking records, breaking norms, and possibly breaking necks if anyone tries to lie down with that hair.- Ends
