It looks like she won’t be able to get away with this one. There’s a new report that suggests the British public are none too pleased over the fact that Meghan Markle has decided to skip the UK altogether to visit Nigeria instead.
In fact, one royal critic even likened it to the Duchess of Sussex giving the British people the ‘V’ sign mostly because they think that Meghan loves the royal title that she has but she doesn’t like the country. Or at least that’s what her critics think. Keep reading below for everything you need to know.

Prince Harry is scheduled to visit the United Kingdom to celebrate the 10th anniversary of the creation of his Invictus Games on May 8, 2024. However, no royal members are expected to attend the important celebration. Is this because King Charles is being petty? A royal commentator explains.
King Charles won’t meet with Prince Harry during UK visit: ‘Bad form, your majesty’
Prince Harry will be in London on May 8 to attend a service of Thanksgiving at St. Paul’s Cathedral. This service will mark the 10th anniversary of the Invictus Games, a Paralympic-style competition for wounded service members that he founded in 2014.
However, it has been reported that Charles will not meet with his youngest son during his visit. Additionally, no other royal family members are also scheduled to attend the event.
News.com.au commentator Daniela Elser states that this move is petty, calling it “bad form, your majesty.

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. He had a net worth between $100 and $400 million, but that number skyrocketed when he ascended the throne. Today, Celebrity Net Worth reports that he has an estimated net worth of $750 million.
Prince William’s net worth before he was the Prince of Wales was estimated to be about $40 million but he now benefits from the Duchy his father once did. According to Celebrity Net Worth, William’s current net worth is $100 million.

There’s a reason why Princess Anne is famously dubbed “the hardest working royal.” The reason is simple really.
It’s because she is indeed the hardest working royal, racking up more engagements per year than any other member of the Royal Family, older or younger. Yet, you won’t find her representing the King in William’s absence. Why?
Princess Anne Not “High Level Enough” To Officially Represent King, Royal Insider Says
As the royal family deals with multiple health crisis amid their new slimmed-down atmosphere, it’s proving difficult to find royals who could fill in for the King, who is receiving treatment for cancer, and Prince William, who is caring for a wife receiving treatment from cancer.
King Charles has been advised not to make long distance travels and Prince William is unlikely to replace the King for the Samoan tour taking place later this year.

King Charles III’s slimmed-down monarchy has caused a “huge void” in the British royal family’s “lineup,” according to a royal author. What was supposed to include the “strongest” members of the Windsor family now is a “limp” showing. Ahead, the “crisis” the royal family’s been dealing with since before the king and Kate Middleton’s cancer diagnoses. Plus, who is on the list of working royals.

According to Omid Scobie, a royal commentator and author, King Charles’s slimmed-down monarchy isn’t the one he originally intended. In fact, far from it.
Instead of a “strong” showing, what’s left is a “huge void in the royal lineup,” he told ABC News Studio’s Impact x Nightline: The Crown in Crisis (via UsWeekly).

It’s been a rough few months for members of Britain’s royal family as they have been trying to navigate operating in a new slimmed-down monarchy with two key working royals out of commission.
In January, it was revealed that King Charles and the Princess of Wales (formerly known as Kate Middleton) were both hospitalized. After the monarch had a routine procedure for an enlarged prostate, the Palace announced that tests determined the king had cancer and was undergoing treatment. Meanwhile, concerns were growing and there was speculation about his daughter-in-law’s health following her abdominal surgery and lengthy recovery time.
In March, Kate revealed her own cancer diagnosis and that she, too, was undergoing treatment. With two top working royals needing to take a break and shelf their engagements, other working members of the royal family have had to ramp up their duties. That includes Prince Edward and his wife Sophie,...

Lady Louise Windsor is likely to never know life as a working royal. An expert says it’s “doubtful” the 20-year-old daughter of Prince Edward and Sophie, the Duke and Duchess of Edinburgh, will ever formally represent the monarchy. Instead, she’s poised to take after one of her non-working royal cousins. Why? The “most common complaint” about the British royal family: cost.
The ‘cost too much’ complaint is expected to keep Louise from working royal life
According to royal expert Jennie Bond, Louise isn’t on her way to becoming a working royal. Yes, even in light of King Charles III and Kate Middleton being diagnosed with cancer.
The reason, she told Ok! Magazine, is the “most common complaint” about the royal family, how much they cost taxpayers.

Royal watchers have been seeing more of Prince Edward and Sophie, Duchess of Edinburgh (formerly the Countess of Wessex) recently following the news that both King Charles and the Princess of Wales (formerly known as Kate Middleton) were taking a break from their royal engagements as they receive treatment for cancer.
With ramped-up royal duties now, there are more eyes on the Duke and Duchess of Edinburgh, which is why Sophie’s apparent snub of her nephew, Prince Harry, didn’t go unnoticed during one of her recent engagements.

In light of the news that both King Charles and Kate Middleton have cancer, the royal family had to devise a plan to continue their work without two of its most visible members. However, a royal historian says the family has been “just holding it together” since January. Subsequently, their current lineup remains “unsustainable.”
The ‘unsustainable’ House of Windsor is ‘just holding it together’
Royal historian Gareth Russell discussed the current state of the monarchy with Us Weekly. He believes the House of Windsor is “underweight.”
“If we are to use the metaphor, the monarchy is underweight at this stage. It was never intended to reach the levels it did,” Russell revealed. “It was always anticipated that you would have [King] Charles III with three working siblings. And two working children and their wives. This would be a sustainable footing for the monarchy going forward.”

Exclusive: Judy Craymer would just love it if Barbie filmmaker Greta Gerwig could just make herself available to complete the Mamma Mia! movie trilogy.
“Hey, Greta, if you’re free to do anymore projects…” jokes Craymer, the driving force that has kept the “Money, Money, Money” pouring into the box office for musical Mamma Mia!, featuring the songs of Swedish pop stars Abba, for a quarter of a century.
Saturday night will mark an incredible milestone for a show that has taken over $5.685 billion at the box-office worldwide in ticket sales and is responsible for a further $17 billion in supplementary expenditure from spending on hotels, restaurants, transport and merchandising globally in the 25 years since opening night at the Cameron Macintosh-owned Prince Edward Theatre on April 6, 1999.
Those figures do not include the hundreds of millions of dollars that movie offshoots Mamma Mia! and Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again have amassed.

Prince William’s not king yet — he’s heir apparent to King Charles III — but he’s already got his work cut out for him. A royal commentator hopes the Prince of Wales, 41, will make two of his cousins working royals as king. Not Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie, who are reportedly upset their uncle hasn’t issued a call to duty. Rather, his youngest cousins, Lady Louise Windsor and James, Earl of Wessex, children of Prince Edward and Sophie, the Duke and Duchess of Edinburgh.
A commentator wants William to eventually make his cousins, Louise and James, working royals
According to commentator Richard Eden, Louise and James, who are 20 and 16, respectively, should become working royals when William takes the throne. William should ask them to serve, Eden wrote for the Daily Mail’s Palace Confidential.

This year’s Easter Sunday service was King Charles’ first major public appearance since he was diagnosed with cancer back in February. The king has continued to maintain his role as monarch, but he has been doing so in a limited capacity with no public appearances. However, it was rumored that the king would do his best to attend Easter, and he did.
Kate Middleton was also diagnosed with cancer earlier this year, and she revealed in late March that she is in the early stages of treatment. Kate did not attend Easter services, but the other royal women in the family appeared to show subtle support for both Charles and Kate with their outfits.

Britain’s royal family is in unfamiliar territory and something needs to change quickly.
Following the death of Queen Elizabeth II in 2022, her oldest son King Charles became the new head of the Firm and put into place his “slimmed-down monarchy,” meaning they’re are fewer working royals to help out with the family’s daily duties and engagements. What the king didn’t count on was both him and his daughter-in-law the Princess of Wales (formerly known as Kate Middleton) having to undergo medical procedures and receiving treatment for cancer, which has sidelined them for months.
This has left the remaining working royals stretched pretty thin leaving some like Princess Anne to do multiple engagements a day. And aside from 41-year-old Prince William and 59-year-old Sophie, Duchess of Edinburgh (formerly the Countess of Wessex), every other working royal is over the age of 60 with most deep into their 70s and 80s.

Kate Middleton has been taking a leave of absence since just after Christmas. The Princess of Wales stepped out of the spotlight; she initially underwent abdominal surgery, which Kensington Palace said resulted in the need for two months away from duties. But as time went on, people began to ask questions, leading Kate to reveal in late March that she was seeking treatment for cancer.
Kate has requested privacy while she undergoes chemotherapy, and a spokesperson for the palace just commented on Kate’s return to royal duties.

A former longtime butler to King Charles reveals the monarch is experiencing a “nightmare behind closed doors.” A slimmed-down monarchy and two health complications that sidelined the king and Kate Middleton gave the front-line royals an unprecedented new look.
King Charles facing a monarchy working at 50% capacity
Grant Harrold worked for King Charles for about seven years when he was the Prince of Wales. He was employed by Kensington Palace from 2004 through 2011.
“Behind closed doors, it’s all a bit of a muddle,” Harrold told The New York Post of the alleged turmoil behind the scenes at Kensington Palace. “Obviously, the king is trying to get better; that’s going to be the big focus.”
“I think Charles will find it very frustrating that he’s not able to work as much. I can believe that as I know what he’s like, he’s a workaholic,” he continued. “I...

Prince William has been, in Kate Middleton’s words, “a great source of comfort and reassurance” amid her cancer diagnosis. However, that doesn’t mean the Prince of Wales’ own feelings about the situation aren’t entirely positive. William reportedly feels “helpless and scared” amid the Princess of Wales’ diagnosis.
William feels ‘helpless and scared’ about Kate’s cancer diagnosis
It seems three words sum up how William’s feeling amid Kate’s cancer diagnosis. He feels “helpless and scared,” a source told Us Magazine. Furthermore, the 41-year-old’s been asking other British royals to cover for him so he can be at home.
William and Kate live at Adelaide Cottage in Windsor, England, with their children, Prince George, 10, Princess Charlotte, 8, and Prince Louis, 5. The number of royals able to fill in for William is low.

King Charles has had a difficult start to 2024, but through it all, he is trying to prevail. The king revealed a cancer diagnosis on February 5; it was reportedly found after he underwent a prostate procedure in January. Charles is also dealing with Kate Middleton’s diagnosis as well as still trying to work through things with his younger son, Prince Harry.
Through it all, though, Charles is still taking on any royal duties he can; his treatment is reportedly “going well” but he finds the restrictions to be “frustrating,” according to one royal expert.

The royal family has been going through a lot ever since the start of 2024. In January, the palace announced that Kate Middleton had undergone a planned abdominal surgery and would be out of royal duties for about two months. Shortly after, King Charles revealed he had been diagnosed with cancer after undergoing a prostate procedure. And things only became more difficult when Kate Middleton announced she has been diagnosed with cancer as well.
Now, with Kate and Charles out on medical leave and Prince William and Camilla Parker Bowles taking care of them, the public could start seeing a lot more of Prince Edward, Charles’ youngest sibling.

The royal family has been stretched pretty thin over the past few months. With the announcements that both King Charles and the Princess of Wales (formerly known as Kate Middleton) have cancer and are receiving treatment, the new slimmed-down monarchy has been put to the test and has seen some royals completing multiple engagements a day just to keep things moving.
But recently one family member, who many weren’t expecting to take on any royal duties, showed up at a charity event in London leaving many to wonder if they were willing to help out full-time. However, someone who used to work for King Charles says that won’t happen because signing on for royal duties “takes up your whole life.”

Before becoming king of the United Kingdom, Charles III shared he wanted a “slimmed-down” monarchy. However, this desire appears to have run aground with fewer working senior royals than ever. With Charles and Kate Middleton both recovering from illness, the front line of the House of Windsor is “dangerously underweight,” says historian Gareth Russell.
King Charles’ desire for a slimmed-down monarchy has its consequences
King Charles’ desire for a slimmed-down monarchy was in response to public demand for a more modern institution with lower costs. However, has cutting back on the number of working royals helped the king during this time of crisis within the monarchy?
Charles is not participating in many forward-facing events at the current time due to his cancer diagnosis. His daughter-in-law, Kate Middleton, is recovering from abdominal surgery and has not yet returned to her role as a working royal.

A statement released by the Palace on Feb. 5 read in part: “During the king’s recent hospital procedure for benign prostate enlargement, a separate issue of concern was noted.

Sure, the pair attend award shows and movie premieres from time to time and rub shoulders with actors. But one Oscar-winning movie is said to have impacted what royal titles the couple received.

Prince Edward and Sophie were slated for Cambridge titles before William and Kate got them in 2011

Clémence Poésy and Emily Beecham have boarded King & Conqueror, CBS Studios’ big-budget period drama that stars James Norton and Nikolaj Coster-Waldau.
Harry Potter star Poésy will play Matilda, the wife of William of Normandy. Raised in the cutthroat world of the royal court, she has realized that in order to succeed she has to be more devious, more ruthless and more bloody than her male opponents. Beecham (1899), meanwhile, is Edith Swan-neck, the wife of Harold Godwinson who has never quite found her place in Harold’s family.
The duo join Norton and Coster-Waldau, who are leading as Harold, Earl of Wessex and William, Duke of Normandy respectively.
The show, which has already sold to the BBC in the UK, tells the story of a clash that defined the future of a country – and a continent – for a thousand years, the roots of which stretch back decades and extend out through...

Queen Camilla’s out of the office and on a break from royal duties. Getting away from London, England, for a few days might not mean much for the royal family. After all, they have many properties and travel often. However, a royal expert says a break while King Charles III undergoes cancer treatment is a good sign.

It’s been a rough few weeks for the royal family regarding the health of King Charles III and the Princess of Wales (formerly known as Kate Middleton). Following a procedure for an enlarged prostate, tests revealed that the monarch has a ” form of cancer.” He is currently undergoing treatment for that. Meanwhile, Prince William‘s wife had abdominal surgery in January that required several days in the hospital before a lengthy recovery at home, which caused Kate to cancel all her engagements through March.
Now, with two key working royals out of commission, the family is feeling the effects of a slimmed-down monarchy and Prince Harry has reportedly offered his assistance to return to the U.K. and pick up some royal duties. However, that option got a flat-out no from Prince William, who an insider said would rather do all the engagements himself than rely on his estranged brother to help.

As everyone knows the weather can be unpredictable. And as every woman knows a gust of wind can blow through at any time including when you happen to be wearing a skirt, which could make for an embarassing Marilyn Monroe-esque moment.
Well that has happened to the Princess of Wales (formerly known as Kate Middleton) on a few occasions in the past. And it’s the reason why she reportedly wears a lot of clothes now that actually increase static so it’s much harder for her dresses to fly up. But one instance before she adopted that fashion hack took place during a royal wedding where there were plenty of cameras on her. Thankfully she had Prince Edward’s wife Sophie, Duchess of Edinburgh (formerly the Countess of Wessex) by her side to help out at that moment.

Princess Anne might fly under the radar for those who are not so familiar with the royal family, but if you’re aware of her, then you probably understand that she just might be the most important member of this high-profile family. Over the last few years, the family has been hit with deaths, scandals, and difficult diagnoses. But through it all, Anne has continued to keep her head up and serve the royal family, completing more engagements than almost any other family member in 2023.
