Megyn Kelly piles on with fresh criticism of the Sussexes’ post-royal branding, as commentators debate whether their Hollywood clout is fading.

Harry's Colbert appearance crashes spectacularly—audience BOOS him after Trump "elected a king" joke. PR expert: "The jokes land like a man reminding you of punchline that expired three years ago." Deep Crown: "There's a desperation now that wasn't there even a year ago. He's become a man arguing with institution that's simply moved on without him."

King Charles and Queen Camilla have been invited to Washington, DC for a State Visit in April at President Trump’s request, though the King’s health may determine whether he travels.

Questions are again being asked about royal finances as scrutiny turns to Prince Edward’s long-term lease of Bagshot Park. Charles donates £50,000 of his own money toward urgent roof repairs at West Newton Church, a site closely linked to Queen...

King Charles the Third delivers his most hopeful health update since announcing his cancer diagnosis in early 2024, revealing in a prerecorded video message that his doctors will reduce the intensity of his treatment schedule in the new year. The Palace stresses he did not say he is cancer-free and did not disclose the type of cancer, describing the next stage as a “precautionary phase” after what it calls an “exceptionally” strong response to treatment. Our royal insider Deep Crown reads the Palace language as deliberate, balancing public reassurance with constitutional stability, while The Telegraph’s Hannah Furness writes that the King’s ill...

Royal experts say Meghan’s Holiday Special is less “family and service” and more “boho lifestyle princess rebrand,” dropping the Sussexes right in the path of Kate’s faith-driven carol service and the King’s traditional message. We break down every heavily curated moment: the love-note advent calendars, Doria’s gumbo, Harry’s “anti-salad” face, the tribute to late beagle Guy and Meghan’s hyper-personalized crackers that accidentally get British tradition wrong. Then The Washington Post’s Monica Hesse swoops in to compare Meghan to Wallis Simpson and ask the big question: how did we go from giddy royal revolution to… a mildly awkward, pre...

Still more holiday heat for Meghan Markle as LA boutique Kitson names her a “villain of the year” in its annual “holiday hypocrisy” window — complete with a “Montecito diva” Santa hat. Reviewers continue to dismantle her Netflix Christmas special, with The Times calling it a masterclass in one-upmanship and The Royalist suggesting Netflix is quietly signaling it’s “done” with the Duchess. The show’s rare 0 percent Rotten Tomatoes score isn’t helping. Elsewhere, Princess Beatrice’s daughter Athena prepares for a christening that could bring an awkward reunion with Andrew and Sarah Ferguson, while Jack Osbourne reveals that royal naming rules prevented “Pr...

Elsewhere, Prince Harry reportedly courts Jennifer Lopez for an Invictus Games cameo, while biographer Andrew Lownie suggests even the King and Princess of Wales’ health woes may be worsened by the strain caused by the monarchy’s “spares.” And...

Critics absolutely torch With Love, Meghan: Holiday Celebration, mocking broccoli wreaths, therapy-speak crackers and brunch guests in matching red PJs as reviewers label the show joyless, fake and unintentionally hilarious. The Free Press dubs Meghan the “Slop Princess,” while U.S. commentators say the Sussex brand is sliding fast: Harry’s Trump joke draws boos, their star power is “waning,” and Meghan’s eye is drifting toward Kardashians-style beauty deals. Now add in As Ever’s twelve-dollar chocolate bars with bee pollen and “weeds” that social media calls “insane” and “gross,” and you’ve got the full Montecito package: high price, high gloss, and a rep...

The Markle family drama hit full soap-opera mode as Meghan’s team insisted she “reached out” to her recovering father — while Thomas Markle says he’s received nothing, the hospital confirms zero contact, and the supposed message turns out to be an email he hasn’t opened in five years. Samantha jumps in with “Medusa” insults, Thomas gives emotional bedside quotes, doctors detail the massive clot that forced emergency amputation, and insiders whisper he’s now shopping a big TV payday. Meanwhile, palace sources say Meghan feels she can’t win. Add fresh reports of Harry feeling adrift, a new UK security move, Pi...

Samantha Markle weighed in from the sidelines, urging the Sussexes to step up with real support, while a Parade profile reminded the world the couple’s estimated worth sits around $60 million.

Meanwhile, the Princess of Wales delivered the holiday moment of the season with her fifth annual Together at Christmas carol service at Westminster Abbey. Catherine greeted performers including Kate Winslet and Euge...

Prince Harry’s surprise Colbert cameo was supposed to be cute, festive, and harmless — instead, it’s detonated into one of the most brutal weeks of criticism he’s faced since Spare. Royal experts, PR strategists, and even late-night audiences say the Duke’s jokes fell flat, his jabs at President Trump crossed a diplomatic red line, and his attempts at self-deprecating American reinvention have curdled into something “desperate.” Deep Crown calls it “irrelevance catching up.” British commentators say it was “self-harm.” U.S. audiences booed him. And palace insiders warn the fallout is severe — with fresh calls to strip Harry’s titles entirely...

Harry addresses Canadian real estate professionals for $499 a pop about "service and leadership"—two concepts he abandoned when he quit royal duties. Meghan's Netflix holiday special drops to catastrophic reviews: Independent gives it one star, Telegraph calls it "quite mad and a little bit sad," Daily Mail awards zero stars citing "syrupy hypocrisy and deep lack of self-awareness." Harry's first speaking part on the show? Slagging off a salad.

Meghan Markle is said to be “devastated” after a Thanksgiving turkey video sparked online fury over her kitchen hygiene, just as lukewarm buzz around her Netflix holiday special raises questions about whether a third season will ever happen.

Meghan Markle’s holiday Netflix special, With Love, Meghan: Holiday Celebration, drops today – complete with crafts, cookies, cameos and a blink-and-you’ll-miss-it Harry kitchen kiss – but critics say this Christmas outing may be a make-or-break test for her brand. We look at the guest list, the Archewell spin, and fresh reports that Netflix and WME see the coming year as crucial as Meghan lines up brief on-screen cameos to boost As Ever.

Prince William is reportedly set to avoid Christmas lunch with the King for the third year running, as insiders insist there’s “no controversy”—just a difficult year for the Waleses. Meanwhile, Kate’s interior design eye is on full display as Forest Lodge takes shape, complete with a dining table big enough for 24. But holiday harmony hits a snag when Charles pushes plans for a two-million-gallon manure lagoon near Anmer Hall, leaving locals—and likely the Waleses—holding their noses. We preview a packed week of royal duties, from William’s tech stop to the German state visit to Kate’s Christmas...

The Duchess of Sussex kicks off December the only way she knows how: with a fresh avalanche of headlines. Meghan fires back at accusations she kept a designer dress without permission, unveils a meticulously curated “relatable mom” breakfast routine, and once again features Archie and Lilibet in that now-infamous fake-private photo style critics say is more marketing than motherhood. Then she sparks a Thanksgiving food fight after rubbing down a raw turkey—bracelets on, hair loose, no gloves—in what Reddit quickly dubbed “Salmonella Sussex.” We also look at the new As Ever push inside Soho Home, the brand’s traffic strugg...

Meghan Markle has someone announce "Meghan, Duchess of Sussex" when she enters a room—even when she appears to be the only other person there.

Meghan declares Thanksgiving in Montecito “low-key,” which apparently means harvesting sage in poetic slow-motion while launching a $32 Sage Honey from her backyard bees. A glossy As Ever video shows her glazing a turkey in a $297 satin gown paired with nearly a quarter-million dollars in jewellery — prompting the internet to ask why anyone would cook in couture. Critics also pounced on her muted “manila envelope” holiday palette, accusing her of recycling the same beige aesthetic she once blamed on royal protocol.

Meanwhile, PR experts say her recent influencer-style reels expose a growing authenticity problem, with Tom Sykes calling out her “stage...

Meghan Markle’s Harper’s Bazaar cover is making headlines not just for the clothes and quotes, but for the moment a house manager reportedly announced, “Meghan, Duchess of Sussex,” into an almost empty Upper East Side room. Supporters say it is simply protocol and branding, with etiquette expert Myka Meier noting that using a British title socially or professionally “is not unusual or improper,” especially when that’s how someone is widely known. Critics, however, accuse Meghan of clinging to status she once claimed not to care about, with royal commentator Richard Fitzwilliams calling the scene “pricelessly comic” and suggesting it woul...

As Meghan returns to acting, critics call her cameo “a vanity project,” while Harry played personal security at Kris Jenner’s Bond-themed birthday. One columnist calls Jenner “the mother of everything wrong with planet Earth,” and another says Harry looks like a man realizing he traded the army for aisle six at Erewhon.

Meanwhile, Mike Tindall says he’s ready to join The Traitors — because apparently everyone royal is auditioning for reality TV now.

An ITV investigation reveals a former Buckingham Palace warden secretly moonlighted as a neo-Nazi propagandist — proving once again that nothing good happens when “royal service” meets “far-right forum.” King Charles, meanwhile, embraced a 105-year-old WWII veteran who fought the original Nazis, reminding Britain what actual courage looks like. The New York Times wonders if the monarchy itself is running out of time, while Prince Harry’s phone-hacking case collapses after a key witness claims his testimony was forged. Even by royal standards, that’s one chaotic news cycle.

The disgraced royal must now bow to his own daughters and faces demands from Congress while making outrageous staffing demands before his Sandringham exile.

Meanwhile, Sarah Ferguson hides out in her private bar, “The Doghouse,” drowning stress in champagne and fear of eviction from Royal Lodge.
