    Prince Harry’s fears for UK security revealed as WellChild ‘banned from sharing location’

    EXCLUSIVE: Prince Harry’s team have told the WellChild awards that they are not allowed to inform the public or even those outside of a close-knit circle the location of this year’s event due to fears over the Duke’s security.

    Prince Harry’s fears for his security in the UK have been amplified after his team banned the WellChild awards from publicising Monday’s event location, Express.co.uk has learned.

    According to a well-placed source, Harry’s team told event organisers that they are not allowed to inform the public or even those outside of a close-knit circle the location of this year’s event due to fears that the Duke could become a target.

    “Harry is still very concerned about his security in the UK and his team have asked that the location not be shared with anyone until the day of the event,” said the source. “It’s one thing for Harry to come over last minute for a funeral or to see family, but completely different when the event is publicised and in the public domain.

    “He [Harry] could become a target so the team have ensured that the location only be known on a need to know basis.”

    The update comes after Prince Harry’s shock revelation in his memoir Spare that he killed 25 Taliban fighters in Afghanistan.

    The source says it is that boast which has increased security concerns ahead of his trip to the United Kingdom on Monday.

    “The reason why Harry has become such a security concern is due to comments he’s made about the Taliban,” said the source. “Because of those comments, he will always be a target. That’s something he only has himself to blame.”

    Just last month, Prince Harry flew from his home in the US to join his brother at St Mary’s Church in Norfolk for the memorial service of his late uncle Lord Robert Fellowes.

    The Duke stayed with his uncle Earl Spencer on the nearby Althorp estate.

    It has been claimed that Harry didn’t receive the full support of the Home Office during his visit due to the trip not falling within the government’s 28-day notice period.

    “Harry can fly to the UK on a whim but he won’t receive the full support of RAVEC unless it falls within 28 days’ notice,” said the source. “There are exceptions made for last-minute unexpected events like funerals, but even then it’s rather low-key and details are kept under wraps.

    “The reason why Harry was so keen to keep his last visit to the UK secret was due to his security.”

    Prince Harry is set to go ahead with his Home Office security battle despite his recent visits to the UK without the full support of the Royal and VIP Executive Committee (RAVEC).

    It was revealed earlier this month that the Duke will press ahead after losing his “frankly hopeless” bid to appeal the decision earlier this year.

    It is understood that a two-day hearing will go ahead in April next year in the latest dramatic twist to Harry’s three-year legal fight with the British government about his UK security.

    Prince Harry shocks as he screams and swears during surprise appearance on Jimmy Fallon

    Prince Harry turned the air blue as he was filmed screaming while appearing in a haunted maze during a surprise appearance on a US chat show.

    The Duke of Sussex shouted, “Jesus, f***,” as he was scared by a zombie as he joined Jimmy Fallon on his late-night talk show during his solo visit to New York. Harry, 40, did not sit down with the host as normal for an interview but took part in a skit to test a Halloween experience called Jimmy Fallon’s Tonightmares at the Rockefeller Centre in the Big Apple.

    After walking through the haunted section towards the end of the spooky stroll, the royal was so shocked that he swore. In another funny moment, an actress playing a zombie fails to know who Harry is. After he walks her by, she is shown asking a colleague, “Who was that?”

    At another point in the segment, Harry joked that one of the other actors looked like Canadian crooner Michael Bublé. “Is that Michael Buble? Good job, buddy,” Harry said. At the end of the walk, Harry pretended to throw a punch after being frightened by an actor who popped up behind him.

    “Step into a haunted maze experience like no other with Jimmy Fallon’s Tonightmares! For a limited time, Rockefeller Center is home to ten spine-chilling rooms that bring Jimmy’s nightmares to life,” the maze’s website reads.

    “As you venture through each meticulously crafted area, prepare to encounter an array of sinister characters – run from a deranged and diabolical mad scientist, malfunctioning murder robots, a terrifying werewolf, and other nightmarish creatures. Each room is more horrifying than the last, with unnerving surprises lurking around every corner.”

    The Jimmy Fallon Show films in New York City, where Harry has been this past week as he participated in a series of engagements for his patronages and philanthropic initiatives, including Travalyst and Archewell Foundation’s Parents Network.

    Harry’s appearance comes as he admitted he found that he had to “up his game” when he first met his wife Meghan Markle. Harry admitted that when he met his future wife, he knew she was special straight away.

    The pair first met at a London pub in July 2016, where Harry famously arrived late. 18 months later and the couple got engaged which is when Harry admitted he knew he had to impress Meghan.

    In their engagement interview, Harry didn’t hold back on his immediate thoughts during their first encounter, revealing he thought to himself: “I really have to up my game here.” In that same interview, Harry said: “I’d never watched Suits, I’d never heard of Meghan before. I was beautifully surprised when I walked into that room and saw her. There she was sitting there. I was like, ‘Okay, well, I really have to up my game here. Sit down and make sure I have a good chat’.”

  • Breaking: William Ascends to the Throne, Immediately Expels Camilla from the Royal Family: “You Are Not My Mother.”

    Breaking: William Ascends to the Throne, Immediately Expels Camilla from the Royal Family: “You Are Not My Mother.”

    The relationship between William and Camilla has always been a subject of speculation and, at times, controversy. Camilla’s marriage to King Charles, following the death of Princess Diana, William’s beloved mother, has been a sensitive issue for the family. Despite Charles and Camilla’s marriage in 2005, many have long wondered how William and his brother, Prince Harry, truly felt about their stepmother. This decisive action by King William suggests that any hopes of reconciliation or a warm relationship with Camilla may have been more strained than previously believed.

    Camilla, who had been Queen Consort alongside Charles, played a significant role in royal affairs during her husband’s reign, but her position was always controversial given her history with Charles during his marriage to Princess Diana. Her expulsion by William marks a stark departure from the efforts made by King Charles to integrate her fully into the royal family and solidify her public image.

    Public reactions to William’s decision have been mixed. While some have praised his loyalty to his late mother and his assertiveness as the new king, others have expressed concern about the impact this could have on the stability of the monarchy. Camilla, despite the initial public backlash, had gradually earned a measure of respect for her charitable work and commitment to her royal duties. Her sudden removal has raised questions about the future direction of the royal family under William’s leadership.

    As King William begins his reign, this early action sets a tone of decisiveness and signals a potential shift in the way he plans to govern the monarchy. The expulsion of Camilla is likely to have lasting implications for the family’s dynamics and public image, as the new king seeks to define his own legacy, distinct from that of his father’s.

    JUST NOW Princess Catherine confirms she is returning to royal duties with a ‘special film’

    It is hoped that Princess Kate will be well enough to attend the finals at Wimbledon this weekend, but there is a back-up plan in place.

    Whereas, Princess Kate’s possible replacement to present the winner’s trophies at Wimbledon has been revealed, and it’s someone many royal fans might not recognise.

    As patron of the All England Club the Princess of Wales has presented trophies to the tennis champions since 2016, but her ongoing cancer treatment has raised questions over whether she will feel well enough to do so this weekend.

    Kate has only made one public appearance so far this year, at Trooping the Colour last month, but if she is unavailable the Duchess of Gloucester is being lined up to present the awards, according to The Telegraph.

    All England Club Chair Debbie Jevans told the publication that officials at Wimbledon would remain “flexible” on arrangements, with a final decision on presenting duties not expected to be made until the morning of the women’s final on Saturday.

    Kensington Palace has not confirmed any engagements for the Princess in the foreseeable future as she continues to receive preventative chemotherapy.

    A fortnight ago Ms Jevans said she was “hopeful” that the Princess would be at Wimbledon, however it has been reported that during informal discussions the Duchess had emerged as a replacement candidate.

    The Duchess of Gloucester was born in Denmark and was known as Birgitte van Deurs Henriksen before she married Prince Richard, the Duke of Gloucester in 1972.

    She is equally as big a tenns fan as Kate and has been an Honorary President of the Lawn Tennis Association for 25 years, having already been spotted at the tournament as a guest of the All England Club last week.

    It is hoped Kate will be well enough to attend Wimbledon

    Prince William will be unavailable to present the trophies as he is likely to be in Germany for the final of Euro 2024, with England set to play the Netherlands in the semi-final on Wednesday.

    As President of the FA William has been cheering his beloved England on for many matches as the royal summer of sport reaches its climax this weekend.

    It is hugely important for Wimbledon to have royal support, with the potential optics of the Princess handing a trophy over to a Russian player said to be part of the reason tennis players from Russia were banned following the invasion of Ukraine in 2022.

    Ms Jevans previously said: “We’re hopeful that the Princess of Wales will be able to present the trophies as the Club’s patron, but her health and recovery is the priority.

    “We don’t know what we don’t know. All we’ve said is that we’ll work with her and give her as much flexibility as possible.

    “I don’t know who would present the trophies as an alternative – that’s something to consider nearer the time if necessary. We’re staying flexible. When we hear we’ll then think about what’s the right thing to do.”

    Even if Kate cannot attend her parents Carole and Michael Middleton were spotted enjoying the matches on Centre Court last week.

    Earlier, Kate Middleton rejoined Prince William in public engagements for the first time since revealing her cancer diagnosis earlier this year.

    In a joint post with Prince William, the Princess of Wales, 41, highlighted mental health issues affecting young farmers. The royal couple shared their project on X (formerly Twitter) through the Kensington Royal account, stating: “This #MentalHealthAwarenessWeek we’ve brought together the inspirational Sam Stables from We Are Farming Minds and the brilliant Farmer Will for a very special film.” They noted the importance of discussing mental health within the farming community and highlighted the Duchy of Cornwall’s Mental Health Strategy.

    Although Princess Catherine does not appear in the video, her involvement in its production alongside Prince William is evident. The project began before her illness, showcasing her longstanding commitment to mental health advocacy. The public last heard from the Princess in a moving video where she requested privacy as she began preventative chemotherapy. This announcement in March followed speculation regarding her absence after planned abdominal surgery in January. Initially not thought to be cancerous, a subsequent diagnosis confirmed the presence of the disease.

    In a dramatic turn of events, Camilla Parker Bowles was reported to have burst into tears upon learning of Prince William and Kate Middleton’s plan to unveil what they claimed was her secret involvement in Princess Diana’s tragic accident. The news sent shockwaves through the British royal family and the public alike, reigniting old controversies and stirring up a storm of speculation and intrigue.

    The revelation comes amid ongoing tensions within the royal family, where personal grievances and long-buried secrets seem to resurface with alarming regularity. According to sources close to the royal household, William and Kate have been gathering evidence that purportedly links Camilla to Diana’s fatal accident in 1997. This dramatic accusation has caused a significant rift between the current royal generation and Camilla, who has long been a controversial figure due to her relationship with King Charles III and her involvement in Diana’s life and death.

    Camilla’s emotional reaction underscores the gravity of the situation. Reportedly, she was overwhelmed by the accusation and the prospect of her alleged involvement being brought into the public eye. This emotional outburst highlights the personal toll that the ongoing drama has taken on her. For Camilla, who has spent years trying to reshape her public image and integrate herself into royal duties, this new scandal threatens to unravel her progress and tarnish her reputation further.

     

    The plan by William and Kate to expose Camilla’s alleged secrets appears to be part of a broader strategy to confront what they see as unresolved issues surrounding Diana’s death. For years, both William and Harry have expressed their desire to bring clarity to the circumstances surrounding their mother’s tragic end. The involvement of Kate, a figure widely regarded for her diplomacy and commitment to charitable work, adds another layer of complexity to this unfolding drama. Her role in this plan suggests that it is not just a personal vendetta but a strategic move aimed at addressing perceived injustices.

     

    The timing of this development is also noteworthy. With the royal family undergoing significant changes and facing public scrutiny over various issues, the resurfacing of Diana’s legacy and the allegations against Camilla could have far-reaching implications. It threatens to distract from the current royal engagements and overshadow the positive contributions made by members of the royal family.

    As the story continues to develop, the public is left to ponder the accuracy and motives behind these explosive claims. Whether or not there is truth to the allegations against Camilla remains to be seen, but the emotional and political ramifications are undeniable. The incident highlights the continuing impact of Diana’s legacy on the royal family and raises questions about how past grievances can influence current dynamics within one of the world’s most scrutinized institutions.

    In the midst of this turmoil, Camilla’s emotional reaction serves as a poignant reminder of the personal and human aspects behind royal scandals. It underscores the complex interplay between public perception and private reality within the royal family, and the extent to which past events continue to shape present relationships and reputations.

    In her final days, Queen Elizabeth II made one last request of her only daughter, Princess Anne.

    The aging monarch was deeply concerned about the damage being done to the royal family’s reputation by Prince Harry and Meghan, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, through their lucrative Netflix deal and tell-all media interviews.

    Princess Anne has undertaken a covert mission to fulfill Queen Elizabeth II’s final wish: to dismantle Prince Harry and Meghan’s media presence.

    The Queen had expressed deep concern about the Sussexes’ actions potentially damaging the royal family’s reputation, and in her emotional plea, she viewed their financial gains and public scrutiny as threats to royal integrity.

    In a world where royal drama captures the headlines and keeps us on the edge of our seats, the latest twist involving Meghan Markle has set tongues wagging and social media ablaze. The news that King Charles has made a final decision regarding Meghan’s titles has sent shockwaves through both royal circles and the general public. But what does this mean for Meghan, her family, and her future in the UK? Buckle up as we dive into the captivating world of royalty, media frenzy, and the intriguing life of Meghan Markle.

    This Is The Reason Why The Royal Family Is Leaving Out Meghan Markle

    Let’s just say that they aren’t her biggest fans, and we are not talking about her Hollywood movies or television work.

    Many royal fans and critics alike have noticed that the royal family made an effort to wish Prince Harry a very happy 40th birthday but completely ignored Meghan Markle on her 43rds birthday earlier in the month. And of course, a lot of people want to know why.

    This Is The Reason Why The Royal Family Is Leaving Out Meghan Markle

    Apparently, there’s a reason why Meghan was left out from the birthday wishes and has not even been mentioned on any of the royal family’s social media accounts since she and Prince Harry pulled the plug on their working relationship with the royals back in 2020.

    It’s being heavily speculated on social media that the royals would like to have Prince Harry back in the royal fold but simply do not want Meghan anywhere near them, let alone back in the royal family.

    If that weren’t enough, a lot of people also noticed that the royals used a ‘cropped’ photo of Prince Harry for his birthday post.

    However, one expert said that it is “standard practice to crop images to get singles, as has been done here.”

    The expert also added that Meghan’s exclusion was not intentional, even though some people might have seen it that way.

    Either way, the royals have made it pretty clear that they want nothing to do with the Duchess of Sussex and don’t plan on wishing her a happy birthday anytime soon, or ever at all.

    For Meghan’s part, it doesn’t seem like she’s too bothered about it all.

    That’s because she’s made it clear on her end as well that she has no plans to ever step foot on UK soil again, even if it’s for a royal family member’s funeral. She simply doesn’t want to be there.

    So far Meghan Markle herself has not made any comments about the matter.

    Unbelievable Twist: You Won’t Believe How Prince Andrew’s Secret Exposed Meghan’s Dark Past

    The British monarchy has always been shrouded in intrigue, but recent revelations have sent shockwaves through the royal corridors like never before. In a stunning exposure, Prince Andrew’s clever maneuvering has surfaced, revealing a buried secret about Meghan Markle that many will find hard to believe. How did Andrew manage to dodge King Charles’ decree to move to Frogmore Cottage? The answer lies in a past scandal involving yachts, Epstein, and some deeply compromising photos that are now rumored to be within the palace walls.

    Sources whisper that the Duchess of Sussex’s history as a ‘Yacht Girl’ has given Andrew unparalleled leverage, shaking the very core of the royal family dynamics. With the Duke’s gritty stand and unsettling revelations about Meghan creating a ripple effect, Royal watchers are left questioning the future of the monarchy.

    Shocking Revelation: Andrew Reveals Meg’s Yacht Girl Past to Avoid Frogmore Cottage Move

    In a surprising turn of events, it has been confirmed that the Duke of York, Prince Andrew, is set to stay at the Royal Lodge instead of moving to Frogmore Cottage, all thanks to a revelation about Meghan Markle’s past as a Yacht Girl.

    Despite King Charles expressing his desire for Andrew to vacate the 30-room mansion and downsize to Frogmore Cottage, Andrew seems to have found a way out of the move.

    Sources close to the situation have disclosed that the Duchess of Sussex has a history as a Yacht Girl, and Andrew possesses numerous compromising photos from her time on Epstein’s yachts.

    Speculations suggest that these photos, now in the possession of the Palace, could serve as powerful leverage against Meghan.

    The decision to allow Andrew to remain at the Royal Lodge, where he resides with his ex-wife Sarah Ferguson, has raised eyebrows among his friends.

    Following his association with Jeffrey Epstein and subsequent resignation as a working member of the Royal Family, questions have been raised about the treatment of the Duke during this tumultuous period.

    One friend expressed concerns to a Mail on Sunday newspaper, highlighting Andrew’s fragile state and emotional attachment to the Royal Lodge, his home for the past two decades.

    The friend questioned the wisdom of forcing Andrew out, especially considering the recent challenges faced by the Royal Family.

    Calls have been made for King Charles to engage in direct discussions with Andrew to clarify expectations and facilitate a smooth transition.

    Suggestions include inviting Andrew for a meeting to discuss the future use of the Royal Lodge and potentially accommodating Prince William and his family.

    Plans to relocate Prince Andrew to Frogmore Cottage, previously occupied by Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, have been put on hold due to Sarah Ferguson’s recovery from breast cancer surgery.

    The decision to delay the move comes as the Duke of York continues to reside at the Royal Lodge, despite stepping back from royal duties in 2019.

    Sarah Ferguson’s recent health concerns have further complicated the situation, with reports of her undergoing a lengthy mastectomy procedure.

    This development has prompted a reevaluation of the initial plan to relocate Andrew, emphasizing the importance of family considerations amidst ongoing changes within the monarchy.

    Prince Andrew’s lease on the Royal Lodge, signed in 2003, adds another layer of complexity to the situation, as he remains committed to honoring the agreement.

    However, his ties to Jeffrey Epstein have cast a shadow over his royal responsibilities, leading to his decision to step down from official duties.

    As the Duke of York navigates the challenges of his current living arrangements, the dynamics within the Royal Family continue to evolve.

    With Prince Harry and Meghan officially vacating Frogmore Cottage, the spotlight remains on Andrew’s unconventional path to remaining at the Royal Lodge, raising questions about the future of the monarchy and the delicate balance of family relationships.

  • Man who has been on 50 cruises reveals the one gadget you must pack and can’t afford to forget

    Man who has been on 50 cruises reveals the one gadget you must pack and can’t afford to forget

    There is plenty you should know before embarking on your cruise ship holiday

    A Brit who has been on more than 50 cruise ship holidays has revealed the number one gadget you should be bringing with you if you are heading on the open seas.

    Cruise ships are incredibly popular holidays, with thousands of passengers taken across the world at any one time via the engineering marvels.

    Ranging from a few days to a nine month around the world expedition, there are a variety of options and destinations to choose from when it comes to deciding on what cruise ship you wish to spend your down time on.

    Man who survived 20 hours in shark-infested waters after falling off cruise ship was rescued ‘seconds from death’
    ABC7

    One man who knows a thing or two about choosing the correct kind of cruise ship holiday is Bradley Jones.

    With 50 holidays on cruise ships under his belt by the time he turned 30, Bradley loves nothing more than heading on to the open seas for a bit of rest and recreation.

    Starting off on family cruises when he was a child, he started cruising as an adult once he turned 18 and hasn’t looked back since, celebrating his 30th birthday on board Princess Cruises’ €950 million (£812 million) Sun Princess.

    Bradley, from Wales, has achieved ‘elite’ status due to his expeditions, with it giving him a number of hidden perks he can take advantage of every time he heads back on board a cruise.

    And after experiencing so many cruises, he also knows a thing or two are the secret costs that’ll leave you significantly out of pocket.

    When it comes to packing for a cruise ship, Bradley told LADbible about his ‘biggest tip’ regarding gadgets you should be bringing with you.

    And it’s nothing fancy, luxurious or stand out.

    No, it’s a pretty standard device. A plug. But not just any plug.

    “My biggest tip for cruisers is when it comes to cruising as a couple of family is always take a universal plug adapter,” Bradley told LADbible.

    “In a cabin you’ve quite limited some times, especially on an inside cabin. And you’ve got to charge the phones, the kid’s iPads, my hair dryer, straighteners.”

    Bradley revealed that many people get caught out, not realising that the cruise ship you’re catching does not have the same plugs as the location that boarding takes place.

    He explained: “Some of these companies, such as Princess or Cunard, some of them are American.

    “When people catch these ships in Southampton they automatically think they’re British so they take British plugs.

    “Last time we cruised there was a British couple who said ‘I didn’t even think, I thought there would be normal British plugs’. That little thing is huge, people need that.”
