That’s all, folks. Kensington Palace is moving on from the Kate Middleton Mother’s Day photo editing controversy. (Even if much of the internet hasn’t.) A royal expert doesn’t expect the palace to say anything more on the subject. The reason? They’ve already released an “explanation” from the Princess of Wales herself.
Kate apologized for the edited Mother’s Day photo on March 11
One day after Kensington Palace released an image of Kate and her three children to mark Mother’s Day in the U.K., Kate admitted to having edited it.
Taken by Prince William, the photo released on March 10, 2024, showed Kate smiling alongside the couple’s children: Prince George, 10, Princess Charlotte, 8, and Prince Louis, 5. It marked the royal mother of three’s first official photo since undergoing abdominal surgery in January 2024.
“Like many amateur photographers, I do occasionally experiment with editing,” Kate said in a statement.

Once upon a time, royal fans were excited about the family’s Fab Four. It was thought Meghan Markle would fit right in and form a close relationship with her in-laws just as the Princess of Wales (formerly known as Kate Middleton) did with Prince Harry. But that didn’t happen. Instead of bonding somewhere along the line a wedge came in between the Waleses and the Sussexes. And there have been many theories about why.
Over the years, Meghan has been blamed for that because of how well Harry seemed to get along with William and Kate before the duke met his wife. While we’ll never know everything that went on behind closed doors, one royal biographer is revealing that she was told Meghan had been “jealous” of the relationship Harry has with his sister-in-law when they got together.

Things might be on their way to “thawing” out between King Charles III and Prince Harry. A royal expert says the door is “open” for the father and son to reconcile as the Duke of Sussex traveled to the U.K. to see the king following the 75-year-old’s cancer diagnosis.
Harry left England on Feb. 7 after visiting his father, King Charles
It was a quick trip to the U.K. for Harry after Buckingham Palace announced the king’s cancer diagnosis. Harry left his and Meghan Markle’s Montecito, California, home on Feb. 5, 2024, hours after the statement went public, touching down at Heathrow Airport the following day.
Harry reportedly didn’t waste any time, going from the airport directly to the king’s longtime London, England, home of Clarence House on Feb. 6, 2024.
He’s believed to have spent less than an hour — reports said approximately 45 minutes — talking with his father — before leaving.

Although the royal family appears stuffy and traditional, their Christmas traditions are. The clan is known for gifting each other presents that are a bit on the strange and savage side. Here are some of the wildest and weirdest gifts the royal family has given each other.
Weird gag gifts reign the royal family roost
The royal family relies more on gifts with a funny twist than costly presents for each other during the Christmas holidays. The amount spent on a gift makes no difference if it doesn’t generate a laugh from its recipient.

What does one get Queen Elizabeth II for Christmas? That’s what Kate Middleton had to ask herself when she first joined the British royal family over the holidays. After all, the late monarch had a drool-worthy real estate portfolio, art, and priceless jewels. Not to mention, she lived in an actual palace. In short, the queen had it all, presumably making her a challenge in the gift-giving category. Nevertheless, the now-Princess of Wales figured it out, deciding to make food for the queen.

Having been part of the royal family for more than 10 years, Kate’s no stranger to spending Christmas at Sandringham. Located in Norfolk, England, it’s the country estate where the extended family spends the holiday.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex are reportedly not spending Christmas in England with their fellow royals, no matter how much King Charles III may want them to.

When Meghan Markle joined the royal family, her integration came with a vision of residence that would challenge royal protocol. Her solitary request, in the wake of matrimonial bliss with Prince Harry, was met with discretion and deemed unfit by Queen Elizabeth II.

Prince Harry and Prince William were once brothers who bonded over their royal lifestyle — one that was vastly different from their commoner friends. And while the brothers might have always had their differences, they likely never expected that they would one day have a relationship so strained that the public would question whether they even spoke at all.
Now, a well-connected royal expert has revealed the truth: Harry and William don’t speak. And it seems that Harry and his father might have a slightly better relationship than the two brothers, despite that this wasn’t always the case.

King Charles can’t ‘connect’ with people like the queen did
Sept. 8, 2023, marked the one-year anniversary of the queen’s death but also King Charles’s first year on the throne. Discussing where the king stands today, royal author Clive Irving explained the 74-year-old isn’t in an ideal situation.
Namely, he’s “struggling to connect” with people, a problem his mother didn’t have. “When Charles appears, he doesn’t connect,” Irving told the US Express (via Express). “I felt that very strongly at the time of the coronation that he looked almost morose throughout the whole ceremony.”

How time flies! Prince George will soon be celebrating his 10th birthday.
As the future king prepares to hit double digits, Et spoke with royal expert Katie Nicholl about how George’s parents, Prince William and Kate Middleton, plan to ring in his special day on Saturday.
According to Nicholl, the Prince and Princess of Wales “are known to celebrate big birthdays, but they are known to do it below the radar.”
“I’m told that this birthday party will be family, of course, close friends, friends from his old school, [and] friends from George’s new school, but it’s not going to be showy in any way,” Nicholl shared. “A lavish party, where there’s a huge expense, is just not William and Kate’s style.”
“She still always bakes the cake, she will be doing a tea party, I’m told there’s going to be something of...

He might be following in his father’s footsteps but Prince George doesn’t have the same “burden” Prince William had as a kid. It’s said the Prince of Wales makes sure there aren’t constant reminders of the line of succession for George. So much so that being in line for the throne isn’t “made into a big deal.”

Being the oldest child of William and Kate Middleton makes George his father’s heir. Meaning as far as the British royal family’s line of succession goes, he stands to take the throne after William.
George’s grandfather, King Charles III, became the leader of the royal family following Queen Elizabeth II’s death at 96 in September 2022. As a result, William and George moved...

Over the last seven years, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have been slowly drifting further from the royal family. The Duke and Duchess of Sussex effectively separated themselves from Harry’s family back in 2020 after relentless bullying from the press — and the royals doing little to stop it. But the tension started brewing behind the scenes even without the help of the press.
Tensions brewed between Harry and his brother, Prince William, long before Harry and Meghan officially stepped down. And according to royal expert Katie Nicholl, things only continued to escalate years ago when Harry and Meghan were reportedly rewarded with a royal role that William “had his eye on.”

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle did not have an easy time adjusting to royal life. Although Harry had grown up in the spotlight, Meghan’s upbringing was different, and joining the royal family proved to be quite difficult. The press dug up everything they could about Meghan’s past, and Harry and Meghan have claimed the royal family did nothing to stop it — and even went so far as to say the other family members sold stories about the couple to improve their own reputations (the jury is still out on the validity of that statement).
Regardless, Harry and Meghan wound up stepping down from their royal roles after only two years of official service. But royal expert Katie Nicholl claimed in her book that the family went above and beyond to try and make Harry and Meghan feel welcome — including putting “special measures” in place.

Prince Harry‘s court case against Britain’s Mirror Group Newspapers (Mgn)over alleged phone hacking is historic. The last member of the royal family to appear in a courtroom before the duke was Princess Anne for an attack by her dog in 2002. But the royal last royal to testify in a court case was back in 1891 when Queen Elizabeth II‘s great-grandfather, King Edward VII, did.
On June 7, 2023 Harry was cross-examined for the second day in a row. While some don’t believe that his testimony and lack of evidence have done him any favors, it should be noted that this is a civil case, not a criminal one and therefore the burden of proof is different. The prince only needs to convince Judge Timothy Fancourt on the balance of probabilities that he was a victim of unlawful information gathering, rather than beyond a reasonable doubt. Now, a royal...
