Prince William and Kate Middleton have decades of experience navigating royal life between them. However, that hasn’t always been the case. While the Prince of Wales was born a royal, his wife, the Princess of Wales, married into the royal family. Even early on in their relationship, William knew his now-wife of 13 years would be under scrutiny. That’s why he reportedly gave Kate access to a “crisis” hotline.
William made an ‘emergency hotline’ to palace staff for Kate
Kate and William, who met as students at the University of St. Andrews, quietly started dating in the early 2000s. William, now 41, “was all too aware from the start the kind of pressure a[nd] great deal of attention his partner would receive,” The Mirror wrote.
The Prince of Wales was “deeply concerned about how Kate would be able to manage the scrutiny that comes along with any close association with the royal family.

Royal ladies wear some of the most beautiful jewels in the world. We’ve seen them in sparkling tiaras, dazzling necklaces, and of course, stunning diamond engagement rings.
The Princess of Wales (formerly known as Kate Middleton) is rarely seen without her iconic engagement ring, which once belonged to Princess Diana. But another royal is rarely photographed with her ring on.
Here’s who that is and why she barely wears it in public.

Freshman drama Obliterated held the dubious distinction of being the most watched Netflix series in the second half of 2023 to be canceled, according to the streamer’s viewership data made public today. Released Nov. 30, the action comedy was #20 in the rankings for the six-month period, generating 27M views in its first month of release.
The high position should not come as a surprise as Obliterated spent a respectable six weeks in the Netflix Top 10 for English-language series, peaking at #1 in Week 2.
Since the streamer largely bases its renewal decisions on analyzing viewing vs. cost, the size of the latter must have outweighed the magnitude of the former, which would also explain why a show like Sweet Magnolias (#37 on the list with 20.9M views over 5+ months), was comfortably renewed.

Prince Harry Can’t Add Rupert Murdoch, Princess Diana, Meghan Markle Claims to Tabloid Snooping Suit
Prince Harry was not allowed to amend his upcoming lawsuit against News Group Newspapers with several new allegations, some of which pertained to media mogul Rupert Murdoch and others that involved his late mother, Princess Diana, and wife Meghan Markle.
Harry and the more than 40 other plaintiffs involved in the suit filed the potential amendments back in March. Among the biggest proposed claims was that Murdoch, who owns News Group Newspapers, was aware of the criminal activity allegedly taking place at his papers, such as phone hacking and other unlawful information-gathering techniques.

Prince Harry cannot expand his privacy lawsuit against the publisher of U.K. tabloid The Sun to include allegations against media mogul Rupert Murdoch and presenter Piers Morgan, a London judge has ruled.
The Duke of Sussex’s lawyers were hoping to sue over claims that Murdoch and other top executives were part of an effort to conceal and destroy evidence of unlawful information gathering. The prince alleges that he was targeted by journalists and private investigators working for News Group Newspapers (Ngn) titles The Sun and the now-defunct News Of The World, which closed in 2011.
In March, he sought to amend his case to add new allegations, including that The Sun ordered private investigators to target his now-wife Meghan in 2016. He was further refused permission to push the timeline of the case back to 1994 and 1995, to include allegations involving his late mother, Princess Diana, as Judge Timothy Fancourt of...

Prince Harry recently returned to the U.K. for a three-day visit to mark the 10th anniversary of the Invictus Games. However, the duke did not see any of his family members while he was in town. Sources in Harry’s camp claim that he wanted to see his father, King Charles, but the monarch was too busy to meet with him. Palace sources though insist that the prince never made a request to see the king.
Now, there are reports that Harry will not give up trying to win back his father’s favor even though the monarch longs for something other than drama during his “twilight years.”

Lady Diana Spencer became the Princess of Wales at just 20 years old. She had only 13 instances to meet with her future husband, then Prince Charles, before their engagement. Therefore, she wanted to spend the early days after their July 1981 wedding really getting to know her new husband, but apparently, Charles had other ideas.

To say that the 80's were the heyday of soap operas would be an understatement. There were no shows that captivated as many people as soap operas did, and to this day it's hard to replicate that success. General Hospital, however, has always been a step above any other show, thanks to the success of Luke and Laura's wedding.
From breaking the record of 30 million viewers to receiving gifts from Princess Diana herself, no couple has ever had so much attention focused on them. As controversial as the whole story was, it's hard to argue with the fact that so many people fell in love with their twisted romance.
The question is, where are the actors who brought these characters to our screens, today?

The royal wedding of Princess Diana and then-Prince Charles in 1981 was a spectacle for the ages. The couple’s lavish nuptials were watched by over 700 million people worldwide and appeared to be a Cinderella story come alive. However, the marriage was significant for breaking two remarkable royal traditions.
Princess Diana and Prince Charles’ wedding ended over 300 years of royal tradition
In a break with tradition, Princess Diana and Prince Charles’ wedding hosted their nuptials at St. Paul’s Cathedral. This venue choice was significant as the royal family traditionally held their wedding ceremonies at Westminster Abbey.
Before Diana and Charles’ nuptials, the last time a royal wedding took place at St. Paul’s was on Nov. 14, 1501. That ceremony was between Arthur, Prince of Wales, and Catherine of Aragon, who were each 15 years old at the time, per The History Press. The marriage lasted six months, as Arthur died after a long illness.

The royal family appears to have snubbed Prince Harry since exiting his role as a senior royal alongside his wife, Meghan Markle, in 2020. However, he has a “second father” who continues to support him in lieu of other family members.
Prince Harry’s ‘second father’ showed up when the royal family did not
On May 8, 2024, Prince Harry returned to the United Kingdom to attend a service of thanksgiving honoring the 10th anniversary of his Invictus Games. The event was held at St. Paul’s Cathedral.
None of the senior royals from the House of Windsor showed up for the event. However, Page Six reports that members of Princess Diana’s family, including her brother Charles Spencer and sister Lady Jane Fellowes, were in attendance, along with Harry’s cousins Lara Spencer, Louis Spencer, and George McCorquodale.
But perhaps the most important attendee was Prince Harry’s “second father,” Mark Dyer.

There was a special service held at St. Paul’s Cathedral in London to commemorate the anniversary of the Games. Some of Princess Diana’s siblings were in attendance but no one from the royal family attended the ceremony even though they were reportedly invited.
No one expected Harry’s brother, Prince William, or his sister-in-law, who is undergoing treatment for cancer to attend. But not seeing any royals especially one of the duke’s favorite relatives show up to support him has angered some Sussex fans. Here’s who that is and what’s being said about them.

The Crown showrunner Peter Morgan reflected on the series’ final season at a Netflix Fysee event on Monday, touching on how Queen Elizabeth’s death affected his desire to continue the show.
In a conversation with LA Times critic Robert Abele, Morgan noted how he always thought of the show “as a story about the two houses, Buckingham Palace and Downing Street, and I never really thought of it as a story about the royal family. But of course, that’s all anybody thinks it’s about, the royal family, whereas I think of it is about the two houses.”
Admitting, “This is going to sound mad, but I’m not really that interested in the monarchy,” Morgan continued, “Mothers, sons, wives, husbands, that’s really what it’s about. And, of course, at the heart of it is this woman, this rather extraordinary woman. And for me the minute she died,...

Season 5 of The Crownends on a bittersweet note. Directed by Alex Gabassi, Episode 10, aptly titled “Decommissioned,” caps a season that sees the British public grappling with the continued relevance of the monarchy.
The finale kicks off with Princess Diana (Elizabeth Debicki) watching a TV special asking viewers to vote on the question: “Do you want a monarchy?” Though it turns out the majority of respondents appear to lean toward “yes,” the very fact that the question is being asked at all marks a shift in the relationship between the royal family and the British people.
“From the beginning [of the season], we start with the concept of relevancy, specifically through the relevancy of the queen,” executive producer and director Jessica Hobbs tells Tudum. “By the end of the season, we are questioning the relevancy of the institution itself. That is really the arc.”

Princess Diana’s fate in The Crown Season 6, Part 1 is no surprise, but the events leading up to her death still remain a mystery. Reprising her role in the final season of Peter Morgan’s groundbreaking series, Elizabeth Debicki’s portrayal explores the final weeks of the late Princess of Wales’ life. Since the character’s introduction in Season 4, then played by Emma Corrin, Diana’s life has been far from a fairy tale. Although her story ends in tragedy, the first four episodes of Season 6 tell of her whirlwind romance with Dodi Fayed (Khalid Abdalla), a film producer and the son of businessman Mohamed al-Fayed (Salim Daw).
“It’s a really unique challenge as an actor to portray those days because we know where the story is going,” Debicki says in the featurette above. Adds Abdalla, “It’s not about knowing the ending. You know the ending. It’s...

As the world collectively mourns Princess Diana (Elizabeth Debicki) in The CrownSeason 6, Part 1, a father sits alone in his grief. “There’s no mention of you anywhere, as if only one person died,” Mohamed al-Fayed (Salim Daw) says to a vision of his dead son Dodi (Khalid Abdalla) in Episode 4 of Season 6.
The groundbreaking series has always relied on historical research to tell the story of the British royal family, but creator and showrunner Peter Morgan deviates from reality by including scenes of Diana and Dodi posthumously appearing to their loved ones. While Diana shares a conversation with a grief-stricken Prince Charles (Dominic West) and Queen Elizabeth (Imelda Staunton), Dodi and his father, Mohamed, have a long-overdue heart-to-heart.
“When people die, there is a certain energy of them that remains very close — and there are ways in which they speak,” Abdalla tells Tudum about the scenes.

Princess Diana‘s brother, Charles Spencer, honored the heartbreaking vow he made at his sister’s 1997 funeral by supporting Prince Harry during his recent trip to the United Kingdom. Spencer remained true to his remarks of 27 years prior by standing up for his nephew when the royal family did not during an Invictus Games celebration.

King Charles shocked the world back in February 2024 when he announced his cancer diagnosis. The king had previously revealed that he would undergo prostate surgery, but upon spending time in the hospital, doctors discovered the cancer.
The king has been very quiet about his cancer; he has never revealed the type or stage. However, now that he has made a return to royal duties, Charles has slowly revealed a few more details of his journey while bonding with others who have been in similar situations.

Princess Diana‘s sapphire engagement ring has become synonymous with royal family history. The oversized bauble is now worn by Kate Middleton, who was gifted the ring by Diana’s son, William, in 2011. However, another mammoth mystery ring that belonged to Diana is on another royal finger. Who’s wearing it today?
Princess Diana’s divorce ring is 13 carats
Per Express, Princess Diana was reportedly gifted a 13-carat aquamarine stone by her friend Lucia Flecha de Lima. De Lima, the wife of the former Brazilian ambassador to London, befriended the princess in 1990.
Paul Hird, head of luxury auctions at John Pye Luxury, told the news outlet, “The ring consists of an emerald-cut aquamarine amongst small solitaire diamonds set within 24-carat yellow gold. The aquamarine was gifted to Diana by her friend, Lucia Flecha de Lima, and Asprey commissioned it into a ring in 1996.”

King Charles III is down “points” after skipping Prince Harry’s Invictus Games anniversary service. His absence has been widely perceived as a “snub” in the British press. However, a royal biographer thinks the king has a chance to redeem himself, and soon. How? By making a nod to the Duke of Sussex when he hands over the role of Colonel-in-Chief of the Army Air Corps, the regiment Harry served in, to Prince William—another move widely seen as a “snub”—in an upcoming ceremony.
Charles ‘lost a few points’ by not joining Harry at the Invictus Games anniversary service
The Duke of Sussex didn’t see his father while in London, England, marking 10 years of the Invictus Games. Not in a brief meeting like in February 2024 or publicly at the games’ anniversary service.

Prince Harry returned to London, England, this week to mark 10 years of the Invictus Games. Was he happy to be back home? Maybe, maybe not. The Duke of Sussex sidestepped the question hours before attending an anniversary service at St. Paul’s Cathedral. Ahead, how Harry replied and why a body language expert described his reaction as “darkly tickled.”
Harry answered the ‘happy to be home’ question with a chuckle and ‘nice to see you’
The Duke of Sussex landed in London on May 7, 2024, after celebrating his son Prince Archie’s birthday a day earlier in California. (Harry and Meghan Markle’s oldest child turned 5.)
Fast-forward to May 8, 2024, the day of the Invictus Games anniversary service. Just hours before it was set to begin at 5 p.m. local time, cameras spotted Harry leaving an event. As he waved to crowds outside, an awaiting cameraman asked: “Are you happy to be home?...

A positive attitude. That’s what Kate Middleton has whenever she’s around Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis amid her ongoing cancer battle. The Princess of Wales is, per a royal author, being “upbeat,” along with her husband, Prince William, the Prince of Wales, whenever their children, ages 10, 9, and 6, are around.
Kate is ‘resolutely cheerful’ around George, Charlotte, and Louis as she continues cancer treatment
According to royal author Christopher Andersen, Kate is a constant “ray of light” in the royal family. “She remains a ray of light in what can often be a suffocatingly stuffy environment behind palace walls,” he told Us Weekly, noting William and Kate’s marriage “has been tumultuous” in the last year due to her health issues.

Queen Elizabeth was gifted her engagement ring from Prince Philip and wore it daily until her death in September 2022. So where is it today? Who has it?
Who has Queen Elizabeth’s engagement ring?
The royal family generally bequeaths heirloom jewelry to others in the House of Windsor. Therefore, it is likely that Queen Elizabeth’s engagement ring is now in safekeeping for an undisclosed family member.
However, the ring may also be part of the royal jewelry collection. The Jewellery Editor reveals where Queen Elizabeth’s collection may be kept.
The queen was known to have around 400 tiaras, rings, necklaces, and brooches. The jewelry collection is reportedly rich in history and of unmistakable value. These jewels are stashed 40 feet under Buckingham Palace in a converted air raid shelter with an alarm connected to the palace’s police station. Throughout her reign, Queen Elizabeth had already gifted jewels to the...

It seems the Invictus Games anniversary church service brought out a mix of emotions for Prince Harry. A body language expert who analyzed the Duke of Sussex’s arrival at St. Paul’s Cathedral on May 8, 2024, spotted moments of “signature” Harry as well as signs of “anxiety.”
Harry arrived looking like his ‘signature’ self at the Invictus Games anniversary service
According to body language expert Judi James, although Harry made his “rather lonely-looking” way up the steps at St. Paul’s Cathedral in London, England, it seemed to bring out his “signature” self.
“His grin and his pace and energy of movement looked like signature Harry from his cheekier and even jauntier days,” she said (via Express). “He even held his hand out in what looked like a steering gesture to motion the clergyman into his own church.”
If the church looked familiar, that’s because St. Paul’s Cathedral...

Emma Corrin, the Critics Choice and Golden Globe award-winning and SAG and Emmy Award-nominated British actress, is the guest on this week’s episode of The Hollywood Reporter’s Awards Chatter podcast, which was recorded in front of an audience of film students at Chapman University.

Prince Harry recently visited the United Kingdom for the first time since February, though it wasn’t to see his father, King Charles. Rather, Harry attended a ceremony to honor his Invictus Games, but there was plenty of fanfare around the event for another reason. His father and brother, Prince William, did not attend.
While it might seem like nobody from Harry’s family supported him on this important day, that actually isn’t true. Rather, it just wasn’t the royals, like people were expecting.

Just when we thought we heard the last of the bombshells and drama with the Sussexes and the royal family, a new documentary could bring everything up all over again.
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have worked to reinvent themselves after they spent years airing out the royals’ dirty laundry. When the couple sensed public fatigue in hearing about how they were victims, the Sussexes vowed to stop talking about the duke’s relatives and have stuck to that so far this year. But a new documentary in the works will reportedly offer insights into the lives of the duke and duchess and could have Harry’s family bracing for another attack.

Exclusive: Prince William and the recovering Kate Middleton will not be in attendance at this Sunday’s BAFTA TV Awards.
Deadline has learned that the Duke of Cambridge, who has been the film and TV org’s president since 2010, will instead record a video message that will be played during the ceremony, for which nominees include four actors from The Crown.
William attended the BAFTA Film Awards in February alone as his wife was recovering from illness, and we are told it is not unusual for the pair to only attend one of the two major BAFTA awards ceremonies in a calendar year.
William has been attending some engagements recently but Middleton is currently recovering from cancer and undergoing chemotherapy.

Princess Diana‘s sapphire and diamond engagement ring set off a trend of using precious gemstones as engagement rings and remains one of the most memorable celebrity and royal family engagement rings ever. However, Diana’s engagement ring was wildly unpopular with the House of Windsor family despite its popularity with the public.
Princess Diana’s engagement ring was iconic with everyone but the royal family
After only meeting 13 times, Prince Charles proposed marriage to Princess Diana. He was 32, and she was 19.
As a modern couple, Charles wanted Diana to pick her own ring. So, in 1981, Charles presented Diana with a selection of Garrard rings. At the time, Garrard was the crown jeweler.
Per Vogue, Diana decided on the stunning Ceylon sapphire stone surrounded by diamonds set in white gold. However, the royal family was unhappy with Diana’s choice because the ring was a stock item. This meant that...

Prince Harry’s U.K. trip for the Invictus Games anniversary is here. He’s already touched down in London, England, ahead of a special service on May 8, 2024.

There was a small hiccup when Queen Elizabeth II didn’t follow the rules just before the Prince and Princess of Wales got married. She didn’t wear white to the ceremony, although she has before.

For six seasons, The Crown told the story of the British royal family during the reign of Queen Elizabeth II. The show combined real-life events with acts of imagination, meaning that it was not always a hundred percent accurate. Season four of the series introduced everyone’s beloved Princess Diana, played by Emma Corrin, who later handed over the role to Elizabeth Debicki in season five.

Emma Corrin, though a great actor, had only a few acting credits to their name before being cast as Lady Diana. Needless to say, the job made them quite nervous. After all, they were bringing one of the United Kingdom’s most popular personalities to the screen. In fact, there was one scene where they got a panic attack while filming.
