[post_page_title]James Middleton cashes in[/post_page_title]
Ever on the lookout for Middleton-Markle controversy, in 2019 the press reported that James Middleton – that’s Kate’s brother – had committed a tacky gaffe. What had he done? Well, his company – a greeting card business called Boomf – sent out an email newsletter themed around babies.

It contained references to babies, as well as gift ideas for babies and new parents. This was in the same week when Harry and Meghan’s baby had been born. It was therefore whipped up by the usual newspapers as ‘an attempt to cash in on his royal connections’.
