Prince Harry is setting “boundaries” with his royal relatives. How? By way of paperwork. The Duke of Sussex formally made the U.S. his home on documents after four years of living in California. According to a relationship expert, it’s a “subtle but sure” way of setting “boundaries” and “creating a new identity” for himself outside the British royal family.
Harry’s showing how committed he is to ‘forging a new path’ in the U.S.
Harry and Meghan Markle left royal life in 2020. They relocated to Montecito, California, where they live with their children, Prince Archie, 4, and Princess Lilibet, 2. Now, four years later, Harry’s letting the world know just how committed he is to his new life.

Since stepping down from her role as a working royal along with Prince Harry in 2020, Meghan Markle has been trying to carve out her new career path.
She became a podcast host, but Spotify canceled Archetypes after one season and pulled its multi-million deal with the Sussexes. A company executive then publicly called her and Harry “F****** grifters.” Then, when reports circulated that Meghan could strike a deal with Dior to model for the luxury brand, a rep for the fashion house quickly debunked those rumors. There was also talk that she may have some involvement in the new Suits reboot but that isn’t the case. And after rounding out 2023 in The Hollywood Reporter’s Biggest Losers List, the Duchess of Sussex has rebranded herself.

Dominic West has spoken out in support of his former co-star’s criticisms of The Affair.
British actor West, who got his big TV break as maverick policeman McNulty in The Wire and most recently starred as Prince Charles in the final two series of The Crown, filmed five seasons of the hit drama on Showtime, but his co-star Ruth Wilson was written out of the series after four.
In 2020, Wilson – who it is speculated signed an NDA on her departure – recalled that “things didn’t feel right” on the show, she didn’t always “feel safe” and raised the particular concern that, during the filming of sex scenes, the cameras always focused on her “orgasm face,” not that of male actors’.

Royal author Penny Junor believes that had Lady Diana Spencer not married Prince Charles, her life would have been “posh” and predictable. History Extra reports that Diana would have likely found someone in her social class, settled down, and lived a married life.
“Diana had left boarding school with no real qualifications at all, and she wasn’t a great reader of books,” claims Junor. “In the late 1970s, she studied ballet and briefly taught at the Vacani School of Dance, and she looked after children briefly as a kindergarten teacher.

During the visit, one volunteer handed Prince William two get well cards: one for his wife and one for his father, King Charles, who also was diagnosed with cancer. “You’re very kind, thank you very much,” Prince William said upon being handed the cards.

Princess Diana was the royal family’s most popular member, a spokeswoman for important issues, and a devoted mother to Prince William and Prince Harry. However, she had one ultimate dream that her daughter-in-law, Kate Middleton, has since realized.
Princess Diana’s ultimate dream went unmet
The Mirror quotes formal royal butler Paul Burrell, who worked for Princess Diana for 10 years. Burrell was quoted in the 2017 Amazon documentary The Diana Story, that one of her ultimate dreams went unrealized.
Burrell explained of Diana’s crushing reality, “To have a baby girl in the family would have made everything for Diana.” His statement piggybacks on Diana’s remarks to author Andrew Morton in the book Diana: Her True Story.
Diana told Morton that she knew her second child, Prince Harry, would be a boy before giving birth. However, she didn’t tell Prince Charles since he had always hoped for a daughter.

Meghan Markle reportedly thinks Prince Harry “can’t trust” Prince William, 41, as he pushes for a reunion with his brother and sister-in-law, Kate Middleton. The Duchess of Sussex thinks her husband, the Duke of Sussex, is “naive,” and her main concern is him once again getting “hurt.”
Meghan thinks Harry’s being ‘naive’ about a William, Kate reunion
Meghan, according to Ok! Magazine, is fine with the idea of not having the Prince and Princess of Wales in her life. A previous report claimed Meghan feels Kate should’ve had her “back” as a royal “outsider.”
However, with Harry it’s a different story. He reportedly wants to reconnect with his brother and sister-in-law, and Meghan’s skeptical of the whole situation.
“It would never bother Meghan if she didn’t see William and Kate again,” a source told the outlet. “[She] sadly knows that there is no relationship between her children and George,...

Princess Diana‘s royal and personal schedules were both filled with many to-do lists. Therefore, when she had time off, one would expect she would enjoy recreational activities such as going to the movies and becoming immersed in a film. However, that was not the case, according to a Buckingham Palace royal insider.

Prince Harry’s taking a backseat as Meghan Markle gets American Riviera Orchard off the ground. According to a royal author, the Duke of Sussex will likely be in the spotlight less as his wife, the Duchess of Sussex, launches her new lifestyle brand. The reason, they claim, is because Harry’s a “reminder” that “all is not well” in their relationship with King Charles III and Kate Middleton as the two undergo cancer treatment. Ahead, what the author had to say and more about Meghan’s new business venture.

Just before Prince Harry and his wife, Meghan Markle, stepped down from their royal duties, there were rumblings that all was not well between the Duke of Sussex and his brother, Prince William. After the Sussexes stepped down, things seemed to go from bad to worse. And at some point, Harry decided to air out dirty laundry during televised interviews, a Netflix documentary, and in print via his memoir Spare.
For anyone waiting to hear William’s side of things, don’t hold your breath. The Prince of Wales has stayed in line with the family’s “never complain, never explain” policy and hasn’t responded to any of his sibling’s claims.

Prince Harry doesn’t have Meghan Markle’s support in “reaching out” to Prince William and Kate Middleton. The Duchess of Sussex reportedly thinks the Duke of Sussex is waging a “losing battle” by contacting his brother and sister-in-law, the Prince and Princess of Wales, amid years of strained relationships. Instead, the American Riviera Orchard founder sees things as unchanged.
Meghan can ‘never fully forgive’ Kate, William, and the royal family
According to an Ok! Magazine report, reaching out to William and Kate isn’t, in Meghan’s opinion, a good idea.
“Meghan knows she is facing a losing battle when it comes to Harry reaching out to Kate and William to try and sort through their differences,” a source told the outlet. “But she thinks he’s making a big mistake.”

Meghan Markle risks her “bigger person” image by not skipping the upcoming Invictus Games 10-year anniversary. A royal author says it wouldn’t be “good” were the Duchess of Sussex unable to “forget about the past” and join Prince Harry in London, England, for the May 2024 event.
Meghan’s concerned not going to the Invictus Games anniversary ‘will look bad for her’
According to royal author Tom Quinn, Meghan is “worried” how potentially skipping the Invictus Games 10-year anniversary service at St. Paul’s Cathedral on May 8, 2024, might come across.
“People will be increasingly shocked that Meghan doesn’t show us all that she can be the bigger person and forget about the past, come back to the U.K. with her family, and show some support,” he told The Mirror.
“When your sister-in-law and your father-in-law both have cancer [and] you do nothing, it is not a good look,” the Gilded Youth author said.

The public may get a glimpse of Kate Middleton this summer. According to a commentator, it all depends on how she’s feeling as she undergoes cancer treatment. While the Princess of Wales has no official return date for royal duties, there are plenty of upcoming events where the 42-year-old British royal could make an appearance.
The public may see Kate ‘at some point’ in the summer ‘if she feels up to it’
According to Cameron Walker, a Gb News royal correspondent, there’s a chance of seeing Kate “at some point” in the summer. The catch? It all hinges upon her health.
Kate announced her cancer diagnosis in a March 22, 2024, video statement, describing herself as in the “early” stages of preventative chemotherapy treatment.

Meghan Markle wasn’t the “original factor” in the breakdown of Prince Harry’s relationship with Prince William. An author says fractures in the royal brothers’ relationship went back more than a decade — yes, a decade — before the Duchess of Sussex entered the Duke of Sussex’s life. It all stemmed from Harry being the “scapegoat” while his brother, the now-Prince of Wales, always came away “smelling of roses.”
Harry and William had problems in their relationship as early as 2002
According to author Robert Lacey, William and Harry didn’t start having problems when Meghan came along in 2016. (She and Harry went on their first date in July of that year.)
“Meghan was not the original factor in Prince Harry’s decision to get shot of his family,” Lacey wrote in Battle of Brothers. He claimed William and Harry had a falling out as early as 2002, 14 years before the...

Prince William and the Princess of Wales’ (formerly known as Kate Middleton) daughter, Princess Charlotte, has become an expert in royal protocol.
The young princess made news in June 2022 during Queen Elizabeth II’s Platinum Jubilee when she was seen reminding her older brother, Prince George, to keep his arms down at his sides and watch his posture while singing the national anthem.
Then in September 2022, during Queen Elizabeth II’s state funeral, footage showed Charlotte again keeping George in line as she instructed him when it was time to bow before the queen’s coffin. The prince appeared to be listening to his sister intently and then when the moment came he knew to bow his head while she curtsied as their great-grandmother’s coffin passed by them.

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle could be headed to Balmoral this summer. The Duke and Duchess of Sussex may reportedly get an “olive branch” invite from King Charles III to vacation at the royal family’s Scottish estate as the 75-year-old is eager to spend time with Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet.
King Charles may take the ‘life is too short’ approach and invite the Sussexes to Balmoral
The summer of 2024 could see the Sussexes come together with King Charles for a little R&r at Balmoral. Per a Page Six report, the king, who is currently undergoing cancer treatment along with Kate Middleton, may include the Sussexes.
“I can see Charles desperately wanting to see the children, and extending this olive branch to Meghan and Harry,” a “well-placed society source” told the outlet.

Meghan Markle sees no way “back” for her and Kate Middleton. A royal author says the Duchess of Sussex has no feelings of guilt about how things happened with the Prince of Wales. The reason, they claim, is because Meghan still feels Kate, as a fellow royal “outsider,” should’ve “had her back.”
Meghan doesn’t get why Kate didn’t support her as a royal family ‘outsider’
According to Tom Quinn, a royal author and commentator, Meghan has no feelings of guilt at how things played out between her and Kate. The reason, he told The Mirror, is that the former Suits star feels Kate should’ve had her back. Especially seeing as the two married into the royal family.
“Meghan doesn’t feel guilty about Kate,” Quinn said. “Because she feels that Kate should’ve been the one person in the royal family to back her against every difficulty.

King Charles III would probably do things differently if he had a do-over at parenting Prince William and Prince Harry. According to a royal expert, the king likely “regrets” the “freestyle” way the Prince of Wales, 41, and Duke of Sussex, 39, grew up in the British royal family.
Harry and William didn’t have ‘many’ boundaries growing up
As kids growing up at Kensington Palace and Highgrove, the world was, for the most part, William and Harry’s oyster. After all, they were the children of a future king, the then-Prince Charles and Princess Diana.
As such, the brothers largely had free rein to do “what they wanted.” Sure, they had a nanny not unlike other royal children. The lack of boundaries is what Ingrid Seward, a royal expert and editor-in-chief of Majesty Magazine, thinks King Charles now regrets.

King Charles and Queen Camilla (formerly Camilla Parker Bowles) have been married since 2005, but they met and began dating more than five decades ago. Their relationship was halted when then-Prince Charles went overseas with the Royal Navy in the ’70s. However, they began seeing each other again during Charles’ marriage to Princess Diana, making Camilla his mistress for several years.
But Camilla wasn’t the only member of her family who became a mistress, and Charles reportedly embarked on a quest to find and buy up some of the jewels that belonged to Camilla’s relative and gift them to his wife.

Prince William and Prince Harry live very different lives these days.
William is in the U.K. performing his royal duties and knows exactly what the future holds as he will one day take over the role of monarch and continue a life of service. Harry is in the U.S. after stepping down and deciding not to continue his duties on behalf of the Crown and is carving out his own path in an uncertain future.
As one royal expert pointed out what’s so strange is that the princes are now separated by an ocean because one brother “feared” for his and his wife‘s safety in the U.K., but yet the other brother who will be king is hanging out in local pubs. Here’s more on that.

In Alice Rohrwacher’s Felliniesque tragicomic adventure tale LA Chimera, an English archaeologist-turned-tomb raider named Arthur (Josh O’Connor) leads a merry band of grave robbers who plunder ancient Etruscan tombs, eking out a meager living selling the stolen artifacts to collectors. Arthur is a haunted man, mourning his lost love, and caught up in recurring memories of their last moments together.
The tomb-raiding gives LA Chimera a bit of an Indiana Jones vibe, but while Arthur appears to be a trained archaeologist, he is not working for university nor is he a professor. Instead, he is what archaeologists call a “pot-hunter” plundering archaeological sites for grave goods he can sell for profit. And this grave-robbing is by no means lucrative, as he lives in a shack he built from cast off items, in the shadow of an aqueduct,...

O.J. Simpson was on everyone’s mind today after his death, and Conan O’Brien took the opportunity to salute his late friend, comic Norm Macdonald, who continued doing Simpson jokes on Saturday Night Live even after being warned by NBC higher-ups to knock it off.
Sitting Thursday with CNN’s Jake Tapper to promote his new show, Conan O’Brien Must Go, the former Late Night host remembered Macdonald for doing “some of the most brilliant comedy of anybody during that whole period.”

Celebrities and influencers could help Meghan Markle make American Riviera Orchard, her new lifestyle brand, a big success. An entertainment expert says the Duchess of Sussex, 42, could even see some of her products “go viral and sell out” because of it. Spoiler: Meghan’s done something similar before.
Getting celebrities and influencers involved will make American Riviera Orchard financially ‘worthwhile’ for Meghan
Meghan hasn’t officially launched — or even formally unveiled — any American Riviera Orchard products she plans to make available, but when the items do go public, she’d be wise to turn to celebrities and influencers, Mark Boardman, an entertainment expert, told Newsweek.
“The trademarked brand could see runaway success with items that consumers believe that Meghan uses,” the MarkMeets founder said. “From a PR perspective, I believe that sending out items to celebrities and influencers could make the brand go viral and sell out some lines, thus...

There was nothing inherently funny about the late O.J. Simpson‘s nearly yearlong trial on two murder charges. His ex-wife, Nicole Brown Simpson, and her friend Ron Goldman had been brutally stabbed to death, and the prosecution was arguing that Simpson’s history of domestic abuse in his marriage had culminated in this act of deadly violence.
But Simpson’s celebrity as a football and movie star, his high-powered “Dream Team” of lawyers, the bizarre Ford Bronco chase before his arrest, and the sense that Los Angeles could once more...

In Luca Guadagnino’s latest cinematic endeavor, “Challengers,” Zendaya, Josh O’Connor, and Mike Faist form a dynamic, throuple-esque trio, each delivering performances that scream Oscar-worthy. The real question is, will Academy voters look beyond the palpable sexual chemistry to acknowledge the film’s artistic merit? That’s a challenge for the marketing maestros.
Penned by newcomer Justin Kuritzkes, the spouse of “Past Lives” writer-director Celine Song, “Challengers” weaves through a 13-year narrative, chronicling the life of Tashi Duncan (Zendaya), a tennis wunderkind-turned-coach, who hatches a plan for her husband Art’s (Faist) comeback. The plan pits him against his ex-buddy and Tashi’s former flame, Patrick (O’Connor), setting the stage for a dramatic unraveling.

Initially set for a grand reveal at the 80th Venice International Film Festival, its premiere was thwarted by the 2023 SAG-AFTRA strike. The delay prompts the question: could Zendaya have joined the best actress fray,...

Kate Middleton‘s bravery upon announcing her cancer diagnosis proved that she appeared to be strong and confident enough to lead the United Kingdom as its eventual queen. However, there was once when Kate wasn’t as sure of herself in the royal sphere, leading Prince William to install a secret emergency royal hotline to the palace to protect her if she needed assistance.
Kate Middleton’s emergency link to the palace
In the early days of her relationship with Prince William, Kate Middleton was still a college student, insulated by St. Andrews University in Scotland from the press. However, once she and William graduated, Kate became a subject of interest from the paparazzi, who wanted to know about the future king’s girlfriend.
The stress this interest placed on Kate was insurmountable. To an outsider, the press’ treatment of Kate rang similar to that of William’s late mother,...

Exclusive: The director of Riz Ahmed and Rogan Productions’ Channel 4 series Defiance: Fighting the Far Right has opened up about how the show spotlights generational differences within the British Asian community.
Defiance, which launched earlier this week to positive reviews, shines a stark light on the violent struggles of the British Asian community in the late ‘70s and ‘80s, and is told over three hours of interviews and archival footage.
Satiyesh Manoharajah tells Deadline that the show co-produced by Oscar-nominated British Asian star Ahmed explores themes of conflict within the South Asian community, between the older generation who wanted to maintain a low profile and the younger ones who felt that staying quiet was going to get them nothing of significance. This, he adds, is particularly stark due to the fact that the the first British Asian Prime Minister was appointed two years ago.

Prince Harry’s “uncomfortable” with Meghan Markle’s new lifestyle brand, American Riviera Orchard. An author says the Duke of Sussex probably isn’t entirely at ease with the Duchess of Sussex’s new business venture. Sure, Harry thinks it’s a “great idea.” But one part he’s not fully on board with is that it’s “commercial.”

According to Tom Quinn, the author of Gilded Youth, a 2023 book about growing up in the British royal family, Harry’s likely “uncomfortable” with the sales part.

“Harry thinks the new brand is a great idea because it’s Meghan’s idea—he’s still so loved up that she can do no wrong in his eyes,” Quinn told the outlet.
