Palace Intrigue : Royal Family gossip

HARRY CALLS THE $942 MILLION META RULING A TURNING POINT, COOKIE QUEENS LOSES TO CAT VIDEOS, AND ANDREW MAY STILL BE OWED A ROYAL FUNERAL

Mark Francis on a week that kept pricing people — and the prices rarely matched the birthrights. A New Mexico judge ordered Meta to pay an additional $567 million, bringing its total to $942 million, and Harry said the bar has moved. Days earlier, the Sussexes' first theatrical feature opened to $327,797 and finished behind a cat-video compilation. Andrew, stripped of his titles, is still eighth in line and still, on paper, eligible for a ceremonial fu...

A British radio station has been found in breach of broadcasting rules after accidentally airing a prerecorded announcement claiming King Charles had died — followed by the national anthem and sixteen minutes of silence. The explanation somehow gets even stranger. Plus, Charles donates an entire field of wheat from Sandringham to a British milliner, Princess Anne goes full tartan ahead of the Royal Edinburgh Military Tattoo, and we take a deep dive into King Charles’s extraordinary collection of royal tartans and kilts.

Palace Intr...

Royal commentators are once again making the case that Catherine, Princess of Wales, has become one of the monarchy’s most valuable figures, with Katie Nicholl calling her “the monarchy’s greatest asset” and Helena Chard saying King Charles believes he has “struck gold.” Plus, why Queen Elizabeth reportedly believed Kate was better prepared for royal life than Princess Diana, the deeper meaning behind Catherine’s carefully constructed royal wardrobe, and the surprisingly varied list of drinks associated with the Princess of Wales — from green smoothies to Guinness, gin and tonics and spicy margaritas.

HARRY AND MEGHAN GO AFTER ELON MUSK'S xAI, A NEW ROYAL BABY IN LISBON, AND WHY CAMILLA SITS AT THE TOP OF THE FAMILY

Mark Francis on a week when power moved somewhere other than where the noise was. Archewell Philanthropies published a statement backing Minnesota's first-in-the-nation ban on AI "nudification" apps and criticising "the trillionaire leader of the tech company responsible for X's Grok" for suing to stop it — a federal judge refused xAI's stay and the law took effect August 1.

But Prince Harry has offered a much darker interpretation, accusing his stepmother of playing “the long game” to rehabilitate her image and reach the Crown.
