The United Kingdom’s King Charles III has been diagnosed with a form of cancer, and will postpone public-facing duties, Buckingham Palace has announced.

 

 

King Charles recently spent three nights in hospital to undergo treatment for an enlarged prostate. It is understood that this separate issue was discovered during that procedure.

In Monday’s announcement, palace officials did not specify which type of cancer the king has or how serious his condition is. A Royal source told Reuters that it was not prostate cancer.

The palace said only that the king has commenced a schedule of regular treatments, “during which time [he] has been advised by doctors to postpone public-facing duties”.

Buckingham Palace also said the king had decided to be open about having been diagnosed with cancer to “prevent speculation and in the hope it may assist public understanding for all those around the world who are affected by cancer”.

The king’s cancer revelation comes as Catherine, Princess of Wales and wife to the heir to the throne, William, also recuperates at home after spending two weeks in hospital after planned abdominal surgery for an unspecified but non-cancerous condition.

Prince Harry’s brutal dig at Kate Middleton will never be forgiven by Prince William

A comment made by Prince Harry about Kate Middleton in his Netflix docuseries with Meghan Markle is said to have been the ‘lowest of the low’ for Prince William

Prince Harry made an awkward comment about Kate Middleton

Prince Harry’s dig at Kate Middleton was the “lowest of the low” for Prince William, according to a friend.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex released a six-part docuseries on Netflix, which made several shocking claims about life behind the Palace walls. Both William and King Charles were targeted in the show, with the former accused of “screaming and shouting” and the latter accused of “lying” during a high-profile summit.

However, it was the accusations seemingly aimed at Kate that were the “lowest of the low” for William. In the first episode, Harry suggested there was a temptation within the Royal Family to marry someone who “fits the mould”.

Harry said: “I think for so many people in the family, especially obviously the men, there can be a temptation or an urge to marry someone who would fit the mould as opposed to somebody who you perhaps are destined to be with.”

The Inside Story’ by Robert Hardman, was perceived by friends of the Royal Family as a clear reference to William and Kate. A friend told the author: “On top of all the other breaches of trust, here was Harry making a blatant attack on Catherine. For William, this was the lowest of the low.”

 

Harry continued his criticisms in his memoir, Spare. The Duke of Sussex revealed details of a rift between Kate and Meghan, revealing how Meghan’s alleged “baby brain” comment about Kate after she gave birth to Prince Louis have deepened the divide.

Harry also claimed Kate “grimaced” when Meghan asked to borrow her lip-gloss. Royal expert Jennie Bond told OK! magazine: “When you come from a happy, united family – as Catherine does – it’s incredibly hard to understand how people can become estranged.”

She added: “I think she believed the rift could be fixed and, after Prince Philip ‘s funeral, we saw her talking with Harry and obviously encouraging William to do the same. But we now know that it didn’t work.

“In fact, William and Harry had a blazing row right after the funeral. There comes a point when you just have to accept that happy families are not a game that.”

She continued: “Catherine has been hurt and insulted by things that Harry and Meghan have said, but she and William are a very strong team, and I suspect that, together, they’ve come to the conclusion that the rift with Harry cannot be fixed in the foreseeable future. They’ve closed their minds to that possibility and decided to get on with their lives.”

French Ambassador Jean-Pierre Jouyet said he was relieved that Meghan and her husband were moving elsewhere.

Despite being on maternity leave, Meghan still made a big splash in the media through stories told by people who had been in contact with the royal bride. Previously, the Duchess of Sussex was labeled as pragmatic and calculating when her old friend shared that Meghan only wanted to get to know rich and famous British men.

Now, Meghan has been accused by her former neighbors of partying frequently while pregnant, causing noise and annoyance to those around her. They all breathed a sigh of relief at the Sussexes’ decision to move closer to Windsor Castle, including French Ambassador Jean-Pierre Jouyet.

French Ambassador Jean-Pierre Jouyet, a former neighbor of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex at Kensington Palace, has shared about the couple’s life there before moving to Frogmore Cottage.

Meghan and her husband have been accused of being party animals.

According to this man, his back garden overlooks the front of the royal couple’s old house. He said that Prince Harry and Meghan often held all-night parties and live fireworks displays here.

The French ambassador said that when the couple moved to their new home, it became quieter and less noisy than before. Mr. Jouyet also said that he did not agree with the name Archie that the couple gave their first son.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex moved into Frogmore Cottage in April, just weeks before the birth of their first child. The 10-bedroom property, which was gifted to the Sussexes by the Queen and sits on 35 acres of fertile land, cost more than $4 million to renovate.

Frogmore Cottage has now been transformed into a luxurious, modern residence with a nursery, gym, yoga studio and an organic vegetable garden.

Breaking News: Prince William Officially Welcomes Prince Harry Back to the UK After “Dream” of Princess Diana: “My Mother Spoke to Me in a Dream…”

In a surprising turn of events, Prince William has officially invited his brother, Prince Harry, to return to the UK, citing an emotional dream about their late mother, Princess Diana. The announcement, which has captured the attention of the media and royal watchers alike, marks a significant moment in the ongoing saga of the royal family’s dynamics.

Prince William revealed that he experienced a vivid dream in which Princess Diana spoke to him, urging him to mend the rift with Harry. “In the dream, my mother appeared so clearly,” he shared in a statement. “She conveyed a powerful message about love, family, and the importance of unity. It was as if she was reminding me that life is too short for unresolved issues.”

This heartfelt revelation comes amid ongoing tensions between the two brothers, which have been exacerbated by Harry’s move to the United States and his candid memoir detailing his struggles with royal life. Many royal observers have speculated about the possibility of reconciliation, but this dream appears to have ignited a new hope for healing.

In the wake of William’s announcement, Harry has expressed gratitude for his brother’s gesture. Sources close to the Duke of Sussex reveal that he has been reflecting deeply on his own relationship with the family and is open to the idea of returning to the UK for a family gathering. “Harry feels a strong connection to his mother, and this invitation feels like a sign,” the source stated.

Royal commentators believe this could be a pivotal moment for the royal family. Historian Anna Whitelock noted, “Diana was always the glue that held this family together. If her memory can inspire these two brothers to reconcile, it could have a profound impact on the monarchy moving forward.”

The invitation comes at a time when the royal family is navigating its own challenges, including public scrutiny and calls for modernization. By reaching out to Harry, William not only honors their mother’s legacy but also demonstrates a willingness to embrace change within the monarchy.

As preparations begin for a potential family reunion, fans of the royal family are hopeful that this new chapter will bring peace and understanding. In a world where family ties often seem fragile, the dream of Princess Diana serves as a poignant reminder of the enduring power of love and forgiveness.

Stay tuned as we follow this developing story, hopeful that the bond between the brothers will be strengthened in the spirit of their beloved mother.

“It was exciting, I mean I’ve – you know I’d been seeing her for a period of time when I – literally didn’t tell anybody at all,” Harry replied. “And then William was longing to meet her and so was Catherine.

“So, you know, being our neighbours, we managed to get that in a couple of – well quite a few times now and Catherine has been absolutely…

“She’s been wonderful,” Meghan interjected. “… amazing,” the Prince agreed. “As has William as well, you know, fantastic support.”

‘Greedy’ Meghan Markle is ‘being laughed out of Hollywood’ by A-listers: source

Meghan Markle might be one of the most famous women on the planet — but Hollywood power players are purportedly less than impressed with her showbiz prowess.

The Duchess of Sussex, 42, is said to be scrambling after the launch of her forthcoming podcast with Lemonada Media was reportedly pushed back to next year.

According to In Touch, honchos at the company put the project on pause for fear that the upcoming launch of her lifestyle brand, American Riviera Orchard, would take attention away from her audio endeavors.

“Meghan gets greedy,” an inside source told the publication.

“She wants everything all at once, and it’s backfiring on her again. She’s become a total joke and is overplaying her hand.”

Lemonada execs are also allegedly worried that Markle’s upcoming Netflix cooking show will divert attention from the podcast.

“That clearly didn’t go down well with Lemonada,” the source stated.

“They surely expected to be Meghan’s priority project, but she must have decided she had bigger fish to fry with Netflix.”

The purported pushback of the podcast comes after Markle’s Spotify series “Archetypes” was not renewed for a second season.

The source says Markle now desperately needs a hit with her Netflix show or her lifestyle brand in order to prove that she and husband Prince Harry are still viable in Hollywood.

However, the insider isn’t holding out hope.

“Almost everything they’ve tried has ended in disaster,” they tartly declared.

Meanwhile, one well-placed source in Tinseltown told In Touch that A-listers have little respect for the Duchess, who commands big bucks for her content.

“Hollywood is glam and glitz on the outside, but the real stars have worked hard for their success — and you get the impression hard work isn’t really Meghan’s thing,” the anonymous source says.

“Now, after all her failures, those A-listers — and the royals — are laughing at her!”

EXCLUSIVE: One royal expert believes that Prince Harry can stay in America despite rows over his visa even if Donald Trump is elected.

Prince Harry could be safe to stay in America if Donald Trump is elected, despite visa rows, it’s been claimed.

Since the duke, 40, spoke about his past drug-taking habits in his memoir Spare, people have been quick to question just how he got permission to live in the country in the first place.

The Heritage Foundation, a Washington-based think tank, believe Harry’s visa could have been treated differently to that of ordinary citizens, with some people being banned from entering the country if they are found to have been drug users presently or in the past.

The upcoming US election has also raised concerns for the duke, with Harry and candidate Donald Trump known to dislike each other.

This has left royal fans puzzled about whether Harry will be permitted to stay in the country if Trump gets elected.

However, one royal expert believes the duke will be safe as Trump, if he gets elected, will be too busy to deal with it.

Expert Richard Fitzwilliams said: “Harry was extremely foolish to discuss his drug taking in Spare both in interviews and in the memoir, available in paperback.

“However, the Sussexes have kept a relatively low profile during the Election, urging Americans to vote but not being explicit as to whom for.

“It is most unlikely that Trump would risk an embarrassing episode involving the royal family by expelling Harry if it was discovered that he had not revealed his drug taking on his Visa application.

“We know that Trump and the Sussexes detest each other but… it is safe to assume the Sussexes would be left in peace.”

The duke and his wife, Meghan Markle, 43, have also reportedly brought a holiday home in Portugal, leaving some questioning whether this could become a permanent base for the couple.

Richard Fitzwilliams has ruled this out, believing the European home is not a permanent replacement for their Montecito mansion.

Meghan Markle’s family once released a throwback snap of the duchess that she reportedly “did not want the world to see”.

A photo of Meghan Markle which she reportedly “never wanted the world to see” was once released by her family ahead of one of their interviews.

The throwback photo, which showed the Duchess of Sussex at an unknown event, was shared on social media last year ahead the interview with 7NEWS Australia.

Meghan can be seen in a low-buttoned white collared shirt with a napkin stuffed in it.

Her hair is in a low bun with strands falling down her face, while plates of food can be seen in front of her. She is thought to be at a restaurant.

The photo was shared on X by journalist Taylor Auerbach who claimed it was a photo Meghan “never wanted the world to see”.

He has removed his posts since then.

The 7NEWS Australia interview features several other unseen photos of the Duchess while she was growing up.

They discussed her relationship with Prince Harry as well as where she would be “without her dad”.

In the trailer, her sister Samantha said: “She would still be a waitress if it wasn’t for dad.”

In another moment, Samantha said of the relationship with Harry: “They’re unhealthy for each other. This is a toxic relationship.”

Meghan has had a rocky relationship with her father and sister since her marriage to Prince Harry.

She has never commented on their claims.

The Prince of Wales, 42, has spoken about his estranged brother in a new upcoming documentary about his aim to end homelessness.

Prince William has spoken about his brother Prince Harry in his new upcoming ITV documentary.

The Prince of Wales, 42, has been in a rift with his brother for years, with the pair no longer believed to be on speaking terms since the release of Harry’s memoir Spare last year.

However, in the two-part series Prince William: We Can End Homelessness, which is set to air on October 30 and 31 on ITV and ITVX, the future King does in fact speak about his estranged brother.

This is when William speaks about the impact his mother, the late Princess Diana, had on his desire to end homelessness, taking both her and Harry to homeless shelters as young boys.

The future King said: “My mother took me to the Passage; she took Harry and I both there… I’d never been to anything like that before and I was a bit anxious as to what to expect.

“My mother went about her usual part of making everyone feel relaxed and having a joke with everyone…I remember having some good conversation, playing chess and chatting.

“You meet people, like I did then, who put a different perspective in your head.”

The new documentary is also set to display some photos of the young princes at these shelters, including those of William and Harry together with their mother Diana.

According to The Daily Mail, the documentary is the first time William has mentioned his brother’s name in a public speech or interview since 2018 when the two princes, alongside the Princess of Wales and Meghan Markle, were interviewed at the Royal Foundation Forum.

This year, the prince did wish Harry a happy 40th birthday on official social media channels, however many believe they are unlikely to have spoken privately.

This comes after the brothers attended a Spencer family funeral over the summer and were said to have not spoken to each other despite being in the same room.

Prince Harry’s close bond with one key royal could pave the way for reconciliation talks with the Firm in the future, says expert.

Princess Eugenie could “possibly” pave the path for reconciliation talks between Prince Harry and the Royal Family as the duke “clearly trusts” her, a royal expert has claimed.

The Duke of Sussex has had strained relations with some members of his family in the UK ever since he stepped down as a senior working royal and moved to the US with wife Meghan Markle in 2020.

But the couple, who no longer have a UK base after being evicted from Frogmore Cottage last year, have reportedly bought a new holiday home in Portugal, close to Princess Eugenie and Jack Brookbank’s property.

Now a royal expert suggested that Harry’s close bond with his cousin could provide a bridge for reconciliation talks in the future.

Former BBC royal correspondent Jennie Bond told OK!: “Eugenie undoubtedly does have something of a challenge on her hands to maintain good relationships with both Harry and Meghan – and the rest of the Royal Family.

“But I think the King is probably happy that Harry still has at least one royal cousin he clearly trusts, and presumably wants to see more of. The family are all so busy that they don’t really see that much of one another.”

She added: “However, I think it’s a positive thing that Charles does have someone he can quietly ask about Harry‘s well-being if he is so inclined. And Harry can presumably gauge the mood of the family via Eugenie.

“Any reconciliation – which at this stage still seems unlikely – has to start somewhere and with someone. And that person could possibly be Eugenie… but don’t hold your breath.”

Ms Bond went on to suggest that the Sussexes’s latest purchase could also provide benefits to their children, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet, as it could help them build relationships with members of the Royal Family by playing with Eugenie’s sons, August and Ernest Brooksbank.

She explained: “I think it perhaps suggests that they do want their children to know at least some of their UK family.

“It will be good for Archie and Lilibet to spend time with their little cousins, and Eugenie will remain an important link between Harry and the rest of his family.

“And that’s a positive move because it implies that the children won’t be solely immersed in American culture and will have a better understanding of their European roots.”
