The last time one of our photogs saw Catherine was at LAX in February 2024 ... when we asked her what role she would most want to be remembered for.

Author then neglects to say what her answer was now that it is most relevant...

Im guessing the answer is in the video above that paragraph, so we'll never know.

If you're putting info in a video in a news article, you may as well bury it beneath the sands of the taklamakan desert.

"The mother of my children." is the quote from the video.

You have provided a great public service. Thank you.

Goodness, I had to write something referencing the Taklimakan desert just a few days ago so it’s bizarre to see it mentioned.

[–] Hegar@fedia.io 2 points 6 hours ago

It was the funniest sounding desert i could remember off the top of my head.

Couldn't have even told you there was a video on the page. I mostly browse the news while I'm at work, avoiding doing work. I have trained myself to ignore videos on news articles because I can't have the sound on. So yeah, info in a video embedded on a news site doesn't exist for me.

100%. I only spotted it because i read your comment before the article.
