Introduction hello welcome come on in welcome to Royal Black and Elite I'm lady trinette Wilson your host and I'm a social historian Arthur and lecturer I'm the founder of the largest etiquette Association in the nation teaching etiquette in urban communities and today I also want to give a shout out we just certified a man his name is John Rogers he's in the Fort Worth area and in fact made the front page of the local newspaper we're so proud of him and so we welcome you John and then to all of my Royals thank you for being here thank you for liking sharing and subscribing your presence means everything to me and as you know as we do on this channel we keep it Royal so I want to take you to Meghan Markle England and meet a role you may have never heard of now most people have heard of Meghan Markle and Meghan Markle was an actress and she married Prince Harry now Harry Harry is the son of the king of England and so when they got married back in our 2018 man everybody was really excited but then all of a sudden all the news started hitting the Airways and I mean they left World Duty and started giving all these interviews and things started hitting the fan they went on Oprah and said all this stuff about the royal family then came back and said they didn't say what we heard then they had an award uh they got an award for fighting institutional racism within the royal family right at the beginning she got into it with her sister-in-law so she hadn't been friends with her and Harry took all their business in this book called spare where the world learned the word todger for the first time so their story has really been up and down and some say it's because she wouldn't take the advice of leadership from other Royals within the family but if she didn't want to listen to people in the family she could have listened to another young woman what woman you may ask will meet Emma Emma Weymouth Claire mcqueston the world knows her as Emma Weymouth and she is the first black Martian in British history now when in England a martian is married to a marquis and that's a man who is very wealthy who's very high standing in society and so she married well but before we get into that let's back up and go back to her childhood kind of look at her life even as a child she was a wealthy young girl her father was Chief Lade jadasami he is a Nigerian billionaire and the executive chairman of the Legos deep offshore logistics company and this is her walking him walking her down the aisle her mother's name is Suzanne Education mcqueston and she was an English socialite so even though they weren't married in fact word is that he was married allegedly they still did a good job raising Emma so she was raised in South Kensington and she attended Queensgate School some of the most famous people in the world actually attended Queensgate um Queen Camilla so Queen Camilla married to the the king of England attended that school Chef Nigella Lawson I know y'all have heard of her she's the famous foodie and even actress Lynn Redgrave attended Queensgate school so she attended a great school she also went to the University College of London and she studied art history and after college she studied at the London Academy of Music and dramatic art she was trying to pursue a career of becoming a or kind of like a televised Chef so she wanted to be um a influencer um you know um she's a younger younger woman as you can tell so she wanted to do a lot with her life and boy did she ever let's get into how she met her husband meets y'all in 10. he is the eighth Marquess of bath now his mother and father his father was the seventh request they call him Lord bath and his mother's name Anna Gail and um even though they had been married a real long time Lord Beth he kept 30 other 30 plus of the women some even on their grand estate he called them wifeless now this is their grand estate it's called lonely and it's Ten Thousand Acres and it's actually one of the uh only privately owned safaris outside of Africa and they have every animal you manage imaginable I mean look at this so as you can see the family was a bit eccentric and this is what Emma married into and after Lord bass death actually took over now a little T on the marriage uh ladybath did not like Emma and it was said it was because of her race I mean can you imagine Emma stepped into a world of nothing but vanilla and here she is that little drop in all of that but you know what that did not stop the love between these two you see the First Meeting first time she ever met him she was only four years old he was a young young kid too and she was a bridesmaid at a wedding of her half-brother so she grew up around him she saw him quite often uh the family actually used to go over quite often um two uh lonely for all kinds of events and activities but in 2011 things they changed in their relationship and so it was during a meeting at Soho House that in London also was a lunch you know it's a members only club and they they met there and something changed they felt differently about one another and they started dating and it didn't take long for them to get married because in 2012 is when they made their announcement of being engaged now look at this girl she is beautiful and I'm sure he is very happy but the people were not the family was not the mama was not the dad you know he he he had a black girlfriend too so he really didn't feel one way or the other but he was angry at his son because his son wanted him to move uh some very inappropriate pictures from his estate uh before they she would move in and get married and all that so it was some drama in the city and because of all this drama um people um you know they really didn't care for her and she would purposely dress scantily and kind of pressed their buttons but she was doing it because she was showing her own independence despite them being racist toward her now I'm sure her husband was happy but they were not so all this drama happening around their wedding and um it was not ideal uh for them because you know they wanted the entire family to be there and although her mother and father Emma's mother and father came to the wedding unfortunately there's unfortunately the Wedding marquis's family did not neither his mother nor his father attended their wedding and you know the sad part is the the father and and him made up but the mother never did and they never got to see their grandchildren she didn't go to the wedding she was completely out of their life all behind race which is really sad and you know that's what I'm saying about Megan Megan should have stood on her Square just like this girl Emma did Emmett wore what she wanted to did what she wanted to and she kept her man and she still is with her man today and now the kids are older I mean it's so much she could have had and could have learned from this young woman so anyway they didn't want to show up to the wedding which was no problem with them the wedding still went on a beautiful dress she's wearing here is designed by Angela colarussi they were married on Life their state in Wilshire Long Beach estate with 355 guests in attended after becoming a martian s her life has been Splendid now first of all they are she and her husband they are the keepers of their estate now because the mother and father has passed away so it's open to the public they do yearly um exhibits and tours so that is very very exciting she also is the founder um she founded a business it's called Emma's kitchen and it's the food and Lifestyle brand in 2018 she became a fashion editor for British Vogue and she is a contributing Editor to the Huffington Post so her life has definitely been excited Children but the most exciting part of that she would say is the birth of her children so their first child his name is John Alexander and then next week they gave him her father's name one of his names so that's really great and he is the vice count of women's two women also and he was born in London in 2014. now after her she had her first son she did have some difficulties uh with her next pregnancy so they chose to go um the route of a surrogate and from there Lord Henry Richard Isaac was born in LA in 2016. which brings me back to Megan again and talk right now of surrogacy and all of that she could have learned so much from the Martians she faced difficulty with pregnancy racism but yet look at her today she is a beautiful woman doing a beautiful job for her family and representing the family um so well and all of those who didn't want her to be married they're gone now and particularly for the mother she didn't even get to meet her grandchildren Outro what an amazing story an awesome woman I hope you enjoyed it I wanted to bring you somebody new somebody fresh and perhaps you've never heard of and I kind of wanted to show you that not all African-American
