For years, the public believed that Prince William and Prince Harry were the best of friends and would always be there for each other. But that wasn’t the case. Instead, they had a sibling rivalry and decided to take two different paths in life.

As members of the expansive Netflix series’ second of three distinct ensembles, this quartet and their co-stars were replaced ahead of season five by a new group of actors, some of whom could be added to said exclusive winners club later this year.
According to Gold Derby’s odds, the performer from the sixth and final season of “The Crown” with the best shot at Emmy glory is supporting female frontrunner Elizabeth Debicki.

Meghan Markle has not had a great relationship with the royal family in years. Her husband, Prince Harry, has been able to communicate a bit with the royals and claimed in a 2024 interview that he loves his family, but after attending Queen Elizabeth II’s funeral back in 2022, Meghan has yet to return to the United Kingdom — and she reportedly won’t attend the Invictus Games ceremony over there in early May.
While it’s hard to pinpoint exactly where things went wrong between Meghan and the other royals, the Duchess of Sussex’s comment while doing an interview with Harry, Prince William, and Kate Middleton back in 2018 might have hinted that there was already trouble brewing in paradise.

Following the death of Queen Elizabeth II, both King Charles and Prince William saw a major increase in their individual net worth.
Before becoming the monarch, the majority of Charles’ income came from the Duchy of Cornwall, an investment portfolio covering land in southwest England.

Prince Harry has not been to the United Kingdom since he made a quick trip to see his father back in February 2024 — shortly after King Charles announced his cancer diagnosis. Harry and Meghan have not been to the UK together since Queen Elizabeth II’s funeral in September 2022. Now, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex are reportedly planning to return to Harry’s home country for an Invictus Games celebration, but a security problem threatens to dissuade the two.
Harry recently lost a legal battle that would provide him and his family with proper security in the UK. And after a recent calendar leak threatened his security, Harry might not show up to the Invictus Games event at all.

Exclusive: BBC News’ search for its first royal editor has been blown wide open after the British broadcaster passed over two leading internal candidates.
The BBC has advertised the royal editor post externally for the first time, just days after it was expected to be offered to either Mark Easton, BBC News’ home editor, or royal correspondent Daniela Relph.
The prestige on-air role is likely to attract interest from high-profile external candidates, with BBC sources already speculating that Roya Nikkhah, The Sunday Times royal editor and CBS News contributor, would be the candidate to beat, should she wish to apply.
There is anger, however, that Easton and Relph have been overlooked. “The whole thing stinks,” said an insider familiar with the process. A second person added: “Daniela and Mark are very very unhappy.”
Several sources said Easton, a vastly experienced BBC journalist, was asked to complete a written test as part of his application process,...

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.

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.

Back in 1992, it was Sarah Ferguson who found herself in a compromising photo situation. And it reportedly led Queen Elizabeth II to tell Fergie to “pack her bags” — and Prince Philip never wanted to speak to her again.
