Low-Key 103

Legendary actor Kirk Douglas, who spends his time between his homes in Montecito and Beverly Hills, is turning 103 years old on December 9.

But his Oscar-winning son, Michael Douglas, 75, a former resident of our rarefied enclave with his wife Diandra, says the celebrations will be low key.

“Well, it’s like, so 100. Okay, so he was 100. Big, big birthday,” he told TV talk show host Jimmy Kimmel.

“The trouble is when you’re 100, you don’t really want a big birthday. I threw a big birthday party for him, it was great. 101, You know, ‘Okay, let’s have a nice party.’

“Again? I don’t… You don’t have to have a birthday. Okay… 102.”

Michael added that by the age of 102, the Spartacus star insisted on more low-key celebrations. “So now he’s begging me, he’s got tears in his eyes. ‘Let’s just have dinner, the family together. Bring the kids,” he recalled.

Snubbed by Royalty

The downfall of Prince Andrew, Queen Elizabeth‘s second eldest son and eighth in line of succession, has been a long time coming.

The 59-year-old Duke of York has always been far too impressed by wealth and power, numbering despots, dictators and oligarchs among his friends, all too delighted to receive invitations to dinners at Buckingham Palace and shooting parties at Sandringham.

I have met Andrew a number of times during my 49-year career, the last being at an American Friends of the Royal Academy gala at Rockefeller Center’s iconic Rainbow Room, rising 65 stories above the Manhattan skyline, in 2000.

We had a mutual friend in common, Lady Camilla Dempster, daughter of the 11th Duke of Leeds, and ex-wife of a colleague, the late London Daily Mail diarist Nigel Dempster.

HRH was relatively charming, but then he refused, for whatever reason, to have his photo taken with the organizers by beloved New York Times Style Section chronicler, the late Bill Cunningham, which created a great deal of bad publicity on both sides of the Atlantic quite needlessly.

Prince Charles, his elder brother, rightly fearing for the future of the Royal Family, took decisive steps with his mother to resolve the situation immediately and bar him from further royal duties, a position from which he is unlikely to recover.
