Meghan Markle will ‘no doubt’ overtake Kate Middleton in popularity

Rumours have been circulating that Meghan Markle is set to make a big return to Instagram, with one expert suggesting she could overtake Kate Middleton in terms of popularity

Meghan Markle has faced a tough few months recently, but things could be about to change for the Duchess of Sussex.

Speculation has been mounting that Meghan is set to return to Instagram and relaunch her popular blog The Tig, with one PR expert suggesting she could overtake her sister-in-law Kate Middleton when it comes to popularity. A recent survey showed Kate and her husband Prince William way out in front in terms of popularity among the public.

However, PR to the stars Mayah Riaz believes this will soon change. Speaking exclusively to The Mirror, she said: “It’s no doubt when Meghan re-joins Instagram she will overtake Kate in terms of popularity.

“Kate’s Instagram is curated with huge precision. There are things which Kate isn’t able to post.”

Mayah pointed out how it’s likely Kate has staff posting to social media on her behalf. The PR expert added: “Therefore, it paints a picture perfect life which the Royal Family are keen to portray.”

Meghan stepped down from the Royal Family three years ago, before moving to America with her husband Prince Harry. Mayah said this will allow Meghan to “post what she wishes”.

“She wont have to run it by anyone for approval before posting it,” Mayah explained. Speaking about what we could expect from Meghan’s Instagram, she added: “We can see all aspects of Meghan and her family life.”

Mayah said Meghan is likely to grab widespread media attention with her Instagram account. She told us: “We don’t often see Kate’s Instagram posts making headlines. However, Meghan’s life on Instagram will lead to headlines. We can also expect to hear news of projects announced first on her Instagram.”

Meghan and Harry were recently spotted dancing the night away at Beyoncé’s concert in California. Mayah said: “We have seen footage of Meghan dancing at Beyoncé’s concert as well as public display of affection with Harry. We would never see Kate and William like this.

“This is why there will be day and night difference between Meghan and Kate’s Instagram. Let’s not forget, people who love to hate Meghan will bizarrely still follow Meghan’s Instagram.”

However, she warned Meghan could be targeted by online trolls. “We are more likely to believe that Meghan herself will be posting on her Instagram. This will lead to an explosion of followers very quickly when it’s confirmed that @meghan is her account.

“Along with the explosion of following, I fear that a lot of it will be trolling. We have seen the amount of hate directed her way on Twitter (X) and sadly, I think that will follow on Instagram too.”

FURIOUS William Sends Harry LAST WARNING To Stop His ‘Bloody Rude’ Way Of Addressing Princess Catherine

Prince William ‘Furious’ With Prince Harry’s ‘Bloody Rude’ Way of Addressing Duchess Kate The royal family has been embroiled in drama and controversy once again, as reports emerge of an escalating rift between Prince William and his younger brother, Prince Harry. At the center of the conflict is allegedly Prince Harry’s disrespectful treatment of his sister-in-law, Duchess Kate.

British Royal Family news and updates tease the “Royal Rift” apparently is continuing, as Prince William remains determined to keep Prince Harry at a distance from the rest of the family.

This separation has continued for several years now, certain of Harry’s actions over the past years grating on the elder Prince’s nerves!

British Royal Family News – William Is Adamant Over Keeping The Distance

Prince William is resolutely determined to maintain a distance from Harry, viewing his brother’s recent actions as utterly unacceptable. The ongoing rift between the two princes has persisted for years, exacerbated by Harry’s revealing memoir and sensational interviews.

Although there have been whispers of Harry’s desire to mend fences with both William and Kate Middleton, experts assert that William remains steadfast in his stance, showing no inclination to reconcile.

Former BBC royal correspondent Michael Cole shared with GB News America that William is unwavering in his commitment to exclude Harry from royal affairs, deeming his behavior as “the unthinkable.”

British Royal Family News – There Are Certain Things Men Won’t Put Up With

According to Cole, as noted by The Mirror, there are two matters that men simply cannot endure: their own driving prowess and any disparagement aimed at their wives.

Following Middleton’s cancer diagnosis earlier this year, Harry and Meghan Markle have been attentively tracking her health progress and are earnestly wishing for a reconciliation with the princess.

An insider disclosed to OK! that “Both Harry and Meghan have been observing Kate’s recovery with keen interest, yet sadly, they have had to maintain their distance.

This, of course, is  due to the severely restricted lines of communication with the palace and the Waleses” because of the deep family dysfunction in the Royal family.

British Royal Family News – Harry And Meghan Want To Give Much Needed Support

Harry and Meghan want to give what most would consider much needed support in view of Kate’s very serious health issues, but they’re kept on the outside looking in.

The anticipation surrounding Kate’s comeback is unmistakable, with those in her circle feeling a sense of relief and happiness as they learn of her improving health. They are  hinting at a return to her royal engagements in the near future.

While William shows little interest in rekindling ties, it is rumored that Harry has been a significant concern for Middleton.

Radar Online reports that she is “worried sick” about her brother-in-law, actively pushing for forgiveness and fearing that the royal family may be too unforgiving in their stance.

Meghan Markle’s former co-star claimed there was a ‘foul’ stench at Sussexes wedding

Rick Hoffman – who appeared alongside the Duchess of Sussex – said he smelled a foul odour whilst he was a guest at her and Prince Harry’s wedding in May 2018.

Meghan Markle’s former Suits co-star has revealed there was a ‘foul’ stench at the Duchess of Sussex and Prince Harry’s wedding at Windsor Castle almost six years ago.

 

53-year-old actor Rick Hoffman has opened up on his viral expression after he was caught on camera with what he described as an ‘awful face’ reports the Mirror. 

The American star – who starred alongside Meghan Markle as Louis Litt on Suits – claimed he smelt something ‘really terrible and foul’ whilst at the royal wedding, covering his face to block out the odour.

He made the admission whilst appearing on the ‘Chicks in the Office’ podcast on Wednesday, explaining the reason why his face seemed ‘goofy’.

His expression went viral online shortly after the ceremony.

Opening up on what happened, he said on the podcast: “As time goes on, I’m starting to smell something really terrible and foul, and I’m very sensitive when it comes to that so I start to try to do this. Because I have a coconut vanilla moisturizer, and I like to try to cut it. How can I help getting away from this goofy face?”

Prior to detecting the awful smell, the star was sat next to Sarah Rafferty – who also appeared in Suits as Donna – and claimed he likes to ‘mess around’ with her and was doing ‘something ridiculous’ before she told him to ‘cut it out’

He added that after smelling the ‘foul’ scene, he returned to his Suits castmates and asked them if they could smell it too – but they could not.

He said: “I don’t want them to think it’s me because I’m so particular when it comes to hygiene. So I’m like, ‘Do you guys smell that?’ And they’re like, ‘No.’ So now I’m, like, literally by myself and I’m just going, ‘Mother…’ And that’s what they got [on camera].”

He then added that Meghan was aware he was ‘so sensitive’ to hygiene as he added: “Guess who knew that the most in the cast that I had an issue with other people’s hygiene? Meghan! Always knew and would always laugh about how I was so sensitive.”

His comments came after the Suits cast reunited for a new Super Bowl commercial which aired on screens last week. 

Promoted Stories

Gina Torres, Rick Hoffman, and Sarah Rafferty were seen in the advert for e.lf. Cosmetics but Meghan did not make an appearance.

The ad was directed by Zach Woods and saw the Suits legal team appear in Judge Judy’s courtroom.

Rick spoke about meeting the 81-year-old icon as he admitted feeling a little starstruck. He said: “I made a fool of myself. I literally became starstruck just because for years, I grew up watching her. And then ultimately, I was like, ‘I have to ask her to make a video for my mum’.”

It comes as it was confirmed that Meghan will not be starring in the new planned spin-off show of Suits.

Aaron Korsh, who created the hit legal drama, has scripted a brand new show about employees at a Hollywood law firm.

One character, Erica, seemed to have been created just for Meghan, but it seems the Duchess of Sussex is not ready to make her big acting return just yet.

Sources have claimed Meghan shut down the idea of acting in the project, but she did suggest being involved behind the scenes with her production company Archewell.

However, it is thought her idea was rejected by NBC. “Meghan was clear that she didn’t want to be involved as an actor.

But Archewell was trying to wiggle its way in as a production company on the spin-off. NBC has killed that idea,” a source told the Daily Mail.

However, other sources told the publication that Archewell would never have been involved in a reboot.

Online post, media misleadingly claim Nigeria’s first lady criticised Meghan’s choice of clothes

The visit of Prince Harry and his wife Meghan Markle to Nigeria in May elicited a flurry of media attention. It also sparked disinformation when a YouTuber suggested that a video showed Nigeria’s First Lady Oluremi Tinubu berating the Duchess of Sussex for dressing indecently during her trip to the West African country.

But the claim, which made international headlines, is misleading: Tinubu’s comments were aimed at young Nigerian women in her televised speech. The first lady’s office told AFP Fact Check she had not criticised “Meghan’s dressing”. The TV station that filmed the speech and whose footage was shown in the YouTuber’s post, also denied that Tinubu had reprimanded Markle.

“Meghan Markle managed to create an international incident! We warned her about the clothes,” reads a post shared on X on May 25, 2024.

A screenshot of the misleading claim, taken on May 29, 2024
It features a 1’14” clip of Nigerian First Lady Oluremi Tinubu speaking at an event.

It also contains two photos: one shows Markle, the Duchess of Sussex, wearing a patterned halter-neck gown. In the other, she is seen in a dress with spaghetti straps, holding Prince Harry’s hand as they walk together.

 

The caption includes disparaging hashtags directed at Markle.

The post has received nearly 3,000 likes and more than 350 reshares.

It was shared by Nancy Sidley-Sussex, one half of a US online duo called the Sidley Twins who run a YouTube channel discussing “pop culture” and “Royal gossip” (archived here). Their feed, which boasts more than 50,000 subscribers, features numerous clips critical of Markle.

News outlets around the world, including British media, picked up Sidley-Sussex’s X post.

UK tabloid The Sun ran a story with the headline “Meghan Markle is blasted by Nigeria’s First Lady over her ‘nakedness’ during ‘faux royal visit’ to the country” (archived here). Other examples can be found here, here, here and here.

The claim surfaced after Markle and Prince Harry visited Nigeria in May to promote his Invictus Games (archived here).

 

During the trip, Meghan spoke at an event for women in leadership with Nigerian-born World Trade Organization director Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala. 

The Duchess discussed her Nigerian heritage – referring to the West African nation as “my country” – and being a role model for women.

“I think, being African-American, part of it is not really knowing so much about your genealogy, background, where you came from specifically,” Meghan told the audience on May 10, 2024 (archived here).

“It was exciting…to discover more and what that (having Nigerian heritage) really means.”

A few days later, Nigeria’s first lady held an address celebrating her husband Bola Tinubu’s first year in office and discussed the importance of “good morals” and “cultural values” (archived here).

However, the claim that she criticised Meghan’s choice of clothing is misleading.

‘Meghan’s Nigerian Heritage’

In her speech, seen in the clip shared by Sidley-Sussex, Tinubu reprimanded young Nigerian women for dressing indecently, accusing them of mimicking “film stars from America” who “don’t know where they came from” (archived here).

She then said that Markle had visited Nigeria “looking for Africa” to understand her identity and where she came from.

 

The first lady did not comment on the Duchess’s attire. Tinubu’s office also said her comments had been taken out of context.

“She meant Meghan appreciates the people we are and hence her coming here,” the office said in an email to AFP Fact Check.

“At no point did she say anything about Meghan’s dressing.”

Arise News, whose clip was used in the misleading post, also rejected the claim.

The footage shows Tinubu commenting that Markle “came looking for her roots,” the broadcaster told AFP Fact Check.

Prince Harry and Meghan quit the royal frontline in 2020. They now live in California and have been largely estranged from the family following an acrimonious split (archived here).

Duchess Sophie’s savage response when asked if she’d step in for Meghan Markle

Dubbed the royals’ ‘secret weapon’, Sophie, Duchess of Edinburgh, is said to have acted as peacemaker between the Windsors, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle.

Sophie, Duchess of Edinburgh, gave a savage response when asked if she and Prince Edward would step up in the wake of Meghan Markle, Prince Harry and Prince Andrew stepping back from royal duties, one commentator has claimed. Recognised by some commentators as a key member of the Royal Family with a reputation as being hardworking, Sophie is reported to have issued the eight word response: “What did people think we were doing beforehand?”

The blunt response was first revealed in royal author Katie Nicholl’s 2022 book, The New Royals: Queen Elizabeth’s Legacy and the Future of the Crown.

Ms Nicholl remarked the Duchess of Edinburgh receives less media attention than the Duchess of Sussex because she blazes a more ordinary trail.

The approach appears to have paid dividends for Sophie, 59, who joined the Royal Family in June 1999 when she married the late Queen Elizabeth II’s youngest son, Prince Edward, who recently announced he would be taking a short break from royal duties.

A full-time, working member of the Windsor family, Sophie is patron of more than 70 charities and organisations, championing women’s equality, agriculture, British sport and disabled people, according to Buckingham Palace.

Dubbed the Windsors’ “secret weapon”, an unnamed royal aide has previously said of Sophie: “Since she became a working member of the family she has worked tirelessly for each and every cause she is passionately involved in.”

Before joining the royals, Sophie worked in the public relations industry. She worked for the PR firm Maclaurin Communication and Media before setting up her own company, R-J H, with business partner Murray Harkin in 1996.

On her engagement to Prince Edward, the then Sophie Rhys-Jones made it clear she wanted to continue her career after she tied the knot.

Trending

Sophie went on to become a member of the late Queen’s inner circle, further burnishing her reputation as Elizabeth II’s favourite daughter-in-law, ahead of Diana, Princess of Wales, and Sarah Ferguson, whose marriages to King Charles and Prince Andrew ended in divorce.

The Duchess of Edinburgh once called Her Late Majesty Elizabeth II “mama” in a speech, hinting at her closeness to the late Queen.

After Sophie and Edward’s wedding at St George’s Chapel, Windsor, the couple went on to have two children, Lady Louise Windsor and James, Earl of Wessex.

Her career outside the Royal Family ended in 2001 when she described the late Queen as an “old dear” in an interview with a reporter disguised as a sheikh who she viewed as a potential client.

Sophie has admitted the transition from a working woman to a working royal wasn’t plain sailing, commenting: “I had to take a really big step back and go, OK, they want you to be the icing on the cake, the person to come in to thank their volunteers and funders, not necessarily to tell them how to run their communications plan.”

The Duchess of Edinburgh has been tipped for a greater role under King Charles’s reign, due to her growing popularity. She ranks seventh in YouGov’s latest poll on the most popular royals, behind Elizabeth II, Prince William, Princess Anne, Princess Kate, Zara Phillips and King Charles.

Meghan Markle reacts to The King’ decision to strip her Royal title

Meghan Markle warns King Charles, Prince William against royal title stripping

Meghan Markle has sent a message to King Charles and Prince William to not make a fool out of themselves by stripping her and Prince Harry’s royal titles.

A source close to the Duchess of Sussex has revealed what she thinks of reports about the monarch and Prince of Wales having discussions about removing her and Harry’s titles.

For the unversed, royal expert and author Tom Quinn has claimed Charles and William have been having lengthy discussions about doing something about the Sussexes’ titles.

However, the expert noted that “the last thing they want is to give the renegades something else to complain about.”

“William and his father know that even without their royal titles Meghan and Harry would carry on traveling the world as if they were royals and most people in the world will still welcome them.”

Issuing a warning to Charles and William, the insider said that Meghan is confident that the title stripping would only backfire on the royals.

 

“Charles and William are right to worry that stripping the rogue couple of titles would only result in them with egg on their face,” Meghan’s alleged mouth-piece said, as per Radar Online.

“To many people, who have no idea of royal protocol or even care, Harry and Meghan will always be ‘prince’ or ‘duke and duchess’ no matter what the king does,” the tipster continued.

“So stripping the titles would be a waste of time — and make Charles and William look like petty sore losers.”

Prince Harry asking aides from ‘old life’ to help him ‘plot return from exile’

Prince Harry has reportedly asked former aides in the UK to help him plan a return from exile.

The Duke of Sussex ditched royal life after stepping down with his wife Meghan Markle in 2020 and moving to the US. His relationships with brother Prince William and father King Charles III are understood to have been tense for some years.

But Harry might be looking to come back into the fold and has been talking to people “from his old life”, sources said. However they did not indicate that Harry and Meghan were looking to move back to the UK and abandon their life in Montecito, California.

Harry and Meghan don’t plan to move back to the UK, sources said (

Some friends have referred to the possible plans as ‘Operation Bring Harry In From The Cold’, reports the Mail on Sunday. The newspaper also said the move had been taken as Harry seeks counsel “from his old friends and associates” instead of “all sorts of Hollywood publicists”. The Mail said Harry and Meghan had parted ways with American PR adviser Christine Weil Schirmer.

Ms Schirmer took up a job with PR company Brunswick last month, but stopped working for the Sussexes late last year.

One source said it was hope Harry’s former private secretary Edward Lane Fox was being touted as a possible keystone for the project. But Mr Lane Fox told the Mail: “It’s not something I’ve got a view on, I’m afraid.”

A source said: “[Harry] is clearly reaching out thinking, ‘I need to do something different because what I’m doing is clearly not working’. In short, he is rethinking the way he operates.”

One close associate is said to have come up with a plan for how Harry might start to re-engage with people in UK circles again, with the potential to carry out “low-key royal duties”. Harry is said to be open to different ideas, however.

One source said: “Harry comes back to the UK with zero fuss, and does zero publicity and attends very mundane events, he could prove himself and win over the British public again. He would have to accept, though, that he might be reduced to ribbon cutting for a long period. But it would give him purpose to work again.”

But this would depend on senior royals supporting the idea. Harry’s feud with his brother Prince William shows no sign of cooling down.

Harry flew from the US to join William at the service at St Mary’s Church in Snettisham, Norfolk, on Thursday, The Sun said. The newspaper said that the brothers made a discreet appearance and sat apart at the back of the church, keeping their distance from each other and not speaking. The princes did not meet when Harry spent time with the King at Clarence House after news of his cancer diagnosis earlier this year.

Harry published his memoir Spare last year, in which he accused William of pushing him into a dog bowl in a row over Meghan. It was also claimed William teased Harry about his panic attacks.

But the King is reportedly open to some kind of reconciliation after ‘seeking advice’ from multiple religious leaders.

Five clues Prince Harry wants to return to UK – shock texts, olive branch and Charles offer

Reports have suggested that Prince Harry is keen to spend more time in the UK and be welcomed back within the royal fold – and there have been several signs that he could be keen for this to happen

It’s been more than four years since Prince Harry dropped the bombshell that he and Meghan Markle were sensationally quitting their royal roles.

They quickly upped sticks from the UK to move to California, where they have spent the last few years trying to carve out new careers amid bitter feuds with their royal relatives, including King Charles and Prince William.

However, according to new reports, Harry is seemingly tired of life in the United States and is keen to spend more time in the UK – potentially repairing the rift with his father and even being welcomed back into the royal fold.

According to the Mail On Sunday, the Duke of Sussex has contacted aides from his former royal life as well as old pals in a bid to try and get moving in UK circles again. And it seems there have been several signs that Harry might be willing to move on from the past and reconnect with life back in his homeland…

Seeking counsel

One way in which it seems Harry is keen to reconnect is by reportedly seeking advice from people he knew when he was a working royal after growing dissatisfied with advice from those based in the US.

Just last month, it emerged his chief of staff Josh Kettler had left his post after just three months on the job. A source told the Mail On Sunday: “Harry is turning away from all sorts of Hollywood publicists and is seeking counsel from his old friends and associates. He is clearly reaching out thinking, ‘I need to do something different because what I’m doing is clearly not working’. In short, he is rethinking the way he operates.”

Surprise texts

Meanwhile, the publication also reports that Harry has sent conciliatory WhatsApp messages to old pals, who are ready to help him back to a partial life in the UK. Sources say a permanent move back to Britain is not on the cards.

However, some friends are reportedly calling the task to pave the way for some life in the UK “Operation Bring Harry In From The Cold”. A source also told The Sun : “Harry is feeling more and more isolated in California, which is why he has been reconnecting with old friends back home.

“The Colombia trip also really highlighted how Meghan is comfortable stepping into the spotlight, while Harry cuts a very sulky, unhappy figure in the background. He wants to carve out a way back into royal life back in the UK and is seeking counsel from old friends and associates.”

Shock Spare update

If Harry wants to move in UK circles again, it could be that he has to improve the ongoing feud with his royal relatives.

Just last week, there were reports King Charles could be keen to bury the hatchet with his younger son. And one move that may have caused them a sigh of relief and could even have been seen as an olive branch is to do with his controversial memoir Spare.

The Duke of Sussex used the tell-all book to make various claims about his family including that Prince William called his wife Meghan Markle ‘difficult’, ‘rude’ and ‘abrasive’ and pushed him into a dog bowl, that King Charles was jealous of the Prince and Princess of Wales and that Charles refused to allow Meghan to join her husband in Scotland as the late Queen was dying.

It has been announced by publisher Penguin that Spare, first published in January 2023, will be re-released in October in a paperback version. Usually, when a paperback version of a non-fiction book is released, additional chapters or updated information is included in the new format.

However, in what has been seen as a potential olive branch to Charles, William and the rest of the royals, the paperback version of Spare will not contain any new information. It will have the same cover image in a newly designed package, however, the “contents of the book are unchanged”.

Book silence

When Spare was first released almost two years ago, Harry embarked on a blitz of publicity to promote it.

He gave several revealing interviews to go with it, including one with ITV’s Tom Bradby where he denied calling the Royal Family ‘racist’ in his infamous interview with Oprah Winfrey.

But according to the Daily Mail, Harry does not plan to give any more interviews to promote the new paperback edition. A friend of his told the publication: “The paperback was a part of the book deal he signed, but he is not contractually obliged to promote this edition. The reason it has taken longer than usual for the paperback to be published is that the more expensive hardback was still selling well.”

Bombshell offer

It’s not just in the last few weeks where signs have begin to show on Harry’s hope for a partial UK return.

As far back as February, there were reports the Duke of Sussex, who turns 40 in a few weeks, was willing to help out the Royal Family amid a health crisis. Back in February, it was claimed Harry was willing to step into a temporary royal role while his father undergoes cancer treatment – and also while the Princess of Wales faced her health challenges.

The source told The Times : “On all practical levels it makes perfect sense for the family to come together to support the King while he’s sick. Much has been said on both sides in recent years, but that has never diminished the fundamental bond of blood, and there are now pragmatic aspects to consider, with the King and Kate’s wellbeing paramount in this.”

It came after Harry suggested the King’s illness could lead to a reconciliation with his father in an interview with a US breakfast show back in February. Harry also said I “love my family” and that he was “grateful” to be able to spend time with his father when he flew back to the UK after his father’s cancer diagnosis was revealed.

David Beckham watched Tom Brady’s Netflix roast special — and is not ready to put himself in the same position

“No,” Beckham, 49, replied on the Wednesday, May 8, episode of Jimmy Kimmel Live! when asked if he would want to do his own roast.

“The whole concept is, you know, it’s quite funny. It was very funny.”

Despite having a good laugh from the special, Beckham told Jimmy Kimmel that he couldn’t help but check in on Brady, 46, after the roast.

“I know Tom well and I must admit, I did fire him a message just to check he was OK,” the former soccer star revealed. “I was like, ‘Are you OK?’”

Kimmel, 56, followed up by asking, “Is he OK?” to which Beckham noted, “He’s more than OK, but yeah, it was hard to watch.”

Tom Brady and Gisele Bundchen: A Timeline of Their Relationship

Brady’s love life was the target of many jokes during Netflix’s first-ever live roast on Sunday, May 5. “Tom, you’re the best to ever play for too long, you retired then came back then retired, I get it … It’s hard to walk away from something that isn’t your pregnant girlfriend,” comedian Nikki Glaser stated, referring to Brady’s 2006 breakup with a then-pregnant Bridget Moynahan. “To be fair he didn’t know, he just thought she was getting fat.”

Host Kevin Hart used Brady’s move from the New England Patriots to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers to poke fun at Brady’s ex-wife Gisele Bündchen and her new boyfriend, jiu-jitsu instructor Joaquim Valente. “You f—ked [Patriots coach Bill Belichick] good.

You did, Tom, you f—ked your coach, but let me tell you something people … that’s what you’ve got to do to maintain your happiness,” Hart, 44, stated. “You sometimes got to f–k your coach. You know who else f–ked their coach? Gisele. She f–ked that karate man.”
David Beckham was seen enjoying Tom Brady’s Netflix roast special, but he made it clear that he has no interest in being roasted himself. On a recent episode of Jimmy Kimmel Live!, the 49-year-old Beckham chuckled at the concept of roasting, describing it as “quite funny” and admitting that he had a good laugh watching Brady’s special.However, despite finding the roast humorous, Beckham couldn’t help but reach out to Brady after the show to make sure he was doing okay. “I know Tom well and I must admit, I did fire him a message just to check he was OK,” Beckham shared with Kimmel. “I was like, ‘Are you OK?’”When Kimmel asked if Brady was indeed okay, Beckham reassured him by saying, “He’s more than OK, but yeah, it was hard to watch.” It seems that Brady took the jokes in stride, even though they were aimed at his personal life, including his past relationships.The roast took jabs at Brady’s love life, including his breakup with his ex-girlfriend Bridget Moynahan while she was pregnant. Comedian Nikki Glaser joked about the situation, saying, “It’s hard to walk away from something that isn’t your pregnant girlfriend.”Host Kevin Hart also teased Brady about his move from the New England Patriots to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, making light of his ex-wife Gisele Bündchen’s new relationship with a jiu-jitsu instructor. Hart humorously suggested that maintaining happiness sometimes involves unconventional methods, like “f–king your coach,” as both Brady and Gisele reportedly have done.It seems that despite the playful jabs, both Brady and Beckham have a good sense of humor and a strong friendship that extends beyond the world of sports. Their lighthearted banter and support for each other show that even in the world of professional athletics, friendships and camaraderie are key.Stay tuned for more entertaining and informative content as we continue to provide you with the latest updates and insights.

Prince Harry’s bluff ‘called’ by Royal Family as scathing claims met with silence

The Firm have ‘called’ Prince Harry’s bluff after his scathing claims about Prince William, King Charles and the treatment of his wife Meghan Markle, a royal expert claims

Senior royals remain silent over Prince Harry’s accusations (

Prince Harry’s bluff has been ‘called’ by members of the Royal Family, according to a royal expert.

The Duke of Sussex, 39, famously stepped back from royal duties in January 2020, moving to the States with his wife Meghan Markle to raise their children, Archie, five, and Lilibet, three. Ever since, the couple have made various swipes at The Firm, most notably in his memoir Spare and their bombshell interview with Oprah.

But despite Harry claiming William ‘lunged’ at him during a physical altercation at Frogmore Cottage, and alleging that King Charles refused to allow Meghan to join her husband in Scotland as the late Queen was dying, the royals have opted to remain silent on the matter. And now, a royal expert claims there is a reason for it.

It was previously reported that Prince Harry wanted his family to apologise for the way in which Meghan was treated during her time as a working royal. But according to the Daily Mail’s royal editor Rebecca English, The Firm has “called his bluff” by choosing to remain quiet. Speaking about Harry on the latest episode of the Palace Confidential, Ms English said: “As regards to the apology, what I think this boils down to is the Royal Family have called his bluff.

“They haven’t reacted to any of his demands or his threats, either publicly or privately, I mean they, pretty much, have ignored the fact that Spare had been published.” She said she believes the idea of silence is the “right approach” to respond to Harry and his many accusations and claims.

The writer likened the Royal Family’s reaction to dealing with a toddler’s tantrums. She added: “It’s like don’t listen, don’t make a fuss, don’t give into it, just let it through [and] it’ll blow away and harmony will restore itself.”

Meanwhile, new reports claim Harry is seemingly tired of life in the United States and is keen to spend more time in the UK – potentially repairing the rift with his father and even being welcomed back into the royal fold. The Mail On Sunday reports that the Duke has contacted aides from his former royal life as well as old pals.

Just last month, it emerged his chief of staff Josh Kettler had left his post after just three months on the job. A source told the paper: “Harry is turning away from all sorts of Hollywood publicists and is seeking counsel from his old friends and associates. He is clearly reaching out thinking, ‘I need to do something different because what I’m doing is clearly not working’.”

It’s also been reported that Harry has sent conciliatory WhatsApp messages to old friends in the UK. A source also told The Sun: “Harry is feeling more and more isolated in California, which is why he has been reconnecting with old friends back home.” But sources say a permanent move back to Britain is not on the cards.
