Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are now considering returning to Africa for more tours, following the success of the visit to promote the Invictus Games and celebrate its tenth anniversary

Prince Harry and Meghan are already drawing up plans for more Royal-style tours – after the success of their Nigeria jaunt.

The Duke and Duchess were left thrilled by the reception and coverage of the three-day visit, and he couple are eyeing a possible return to Africa among their next trips around the globe. The moves come after the pair spent the past few years concentrating on life in Meghan’s native US, where they are raising their two children.

A source close to the couple told the Mirror: “The Duke and Duchess have other trips planned for the remainder of the year. They are hoping to be able to share more details in the coming weeks. It is definitely possible they could return to Africa for more tours after that.”

Harry, 39, and Meghan, 42, travelled to Nigeria to champion their Archewell Foundation’s mental health initiatives and promote the Invictus Games, which Nigeria competed in for the first time last year.

They also met with military leaders, injured soldiers and school kids, who all gave the pair a rapturous welcome. Meghan, who discovered she is 43% Nigerian following a genealogy test in 2022, was particularly thrilled by the reception she received in Nigeria, which she described as “my country”.

Africa had already become a special place for the royal couple. They enjoyed a trip to Botswana for their third date in 2016 – a year before Harry proposed with a diamond sourced from the country.

They also returned there for a longer trip to celebrate Meghan’s 36th birthday. And they carried out their first ever royal tour together by going on a ten-day tour across South Africa, Botswana, Angola and Malawi in 2019.

Harry began a life-long love affair with the continent in March 2004 when he visited Lesotho for an eight-week stay as part of his gap year and formed a lasting bond with Lesotho’s Prince Seeiso, whose mother died shortly before Harry’s arrival.

Harry, whose mum Diana died in a Paris car crash in August 1997, later founded his own charity Sentebale, alongside Prince Seeiso. Speaking at the end of the Nigeria tour, Harry said: “We look forward to travelling more because the work matters.

“Whether it’s the Archewell Foundation, Invictus or any of our other causes, there will always be reasons to meet the people at the heart of our work.”

Harry also described Africa as a “very, very special place” and added: “You know what Africa means to me over the years. To be able to include Nigeria now [in Invictus], I’m very happy.”

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex have given a rare insight into their children’s lives away from the public eye during their recent trip to Nigeria where they shared intimate details

Meghan Markle and Prince Harry gave plenty of insight into their home lives during their recent tour of Nigeria.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex may have travelled without their two children Prince Archie, five, and Princess Lilibet, two, but they spoke several times about the two youngsters on the trip. Their comments gave clues as to what their family life is like away from the spotlight.

The first day of their trip saw the couple head to a school which has received donations from their Archewell Foundation, the Lightway Academy in Abuja. While there they met with a group of kindergarten-age children who sang and danced for them.

Harry then asked the class: “Is singing and dancing your favourite class?” As Meghan added: “That’s Lili’s favourite class, maybe it’s all the jumping around.” The pair then visited a STEM class, as the children showed them some impressive robot cars they had created.

While Harry engaged with the class about their interest in electronics, Meghan detailed how Archie also likes construction. The pair also spoke on the subject of mental health while visiting the school. The discussion prompted Meghan to share a touching story about Lilibet.

She told the class: “We all have our story. And there’s no shame in any single one of your stories. Even on the hardest days or darkest days, everything is a pillar of your strength by each of you being there. Your teachers see that in you. And we see that in you.

“And interestingly, so our daughter, Lili, she’s much, much tinier than you guys. She’s about to turn three. And a few weeks ago she looked at me and she would just see the reflection in my eyes. And she said ‘Mama, I see me in you’. Oh, now she was talking really, literally. But I hung onto those words in a very different way. And I thought, yes, I do see me and you, and you see me and you, but as I look around this room, I see myself in all of you as well.”

The pair shared anecdotes about their children throughout the trip (

Meghan discussed her role as a mother further when she co-hosted a Women in Leadership panel discussion with Dr Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, the Director General of the World Trade Organization. Meghan said: “I love being a mum, I love being a mum.”

Meghan then opened up on the personalities of her children as she recalled the time when she was still starring in Suits and had breakfast with her mentor, Bonnie Hammer. She said: “And I asked her that exact question. I said, ‘How do you find the balance?’ And she said, ‘You don’t, you’ll never find the balance.’

“What I think that to mean now is that that balance will always change for you. That balance, what seems balanced ten years ago is going to shift. And so being a mum has always been a dream of mine. And I’m so fortunate that we have two beautiful, healthy, very chatty sweet children.”

The trip also saw Meghan spend Mother’s day, Sunday 12 May in the US, away from her children and as she attended a reception at the State Governor House in Lagos she explained to the guests how much she was “missing her babies.” She said: “So it feels appropriate, but though of course, we are missing our children, I’m missing my babies, but it feels very appropriate to be in the motherland and amongst family. So thank you so much for the kindness and for these beautiful names. I’m very grateful and we can’t wait to come back.”

William SHARED IMPORTANT UPDATE on Catherine’s Health Condition Amid Chemotherapy Treatment
During a visit to St.

Mary’s Community Hospital in the Isles of Scilly on May 10th, Prince William shared significant updates regarding Princess Catherine’s health.

This marked the first substantial news since her public absence began around Christmas due to her cancer diagnosis and subsequent chemotherapy treatments.

The Prince of Wales’ visit aimed to draw attention to healthcare challenges faced by remote communities in the UK, but it was his unexpected update on Catherine’s condition that captured headlines.

Princess Catherine, known for her grace, strength, and dedication to charitable causes, has been away from public engagements since Christmas. Her absence has sparked concern among royal fans. During his hospital visit, Prince William provided a cautiously optimistic update, revealing that Catherine has been responding positively to chemotherapy. He emphasized her remarkable strength and resilience, expressing gratitude for the global support and well-wishes that have been a great comfort to their family.

Prince William highlighted the importance of family support during such challenging times. He spoke about the Royal Family’s closeness and their collective efforts to support Catherine through her treatment. The couple’s children, Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis, have been a constant source of love and encouragement, playing a crucial role in Catherine’s ongoing battle with cancer.

Additionally, Prince William mentioned that he and his family might return to the Isles of Scilly for a vacation later in the summer, suggesting that Catherine’s condition might be improving enough to allow for travel and family time.

The public responded with relief and support, flooding social media with messages of encouragement for Princess Catherine and the Royal Family. The hashtag #StandWithKate trended, showcasing global solidarity with the princess in her fight against cancer. Prince William’s openness about Catherine’s health struggles serves a broader purpose, raising awareness and destigmatizing cancer.

Prince William’s visit also underscored the importance of accessible healthcare, especially in remote areas like the Isles of Scilly. St. Mary’s Community Hospital, though small, plays a vital role in providing medical services to the island’s residents. The Prince’s engagement with healthcare professionals highlighted the challenges they face and the need for continued investment in healthcare infrastructure.

While the road ahead for Princess Catherine remains challenging, Prince William’s update instills hope. The resilience shown by the Duchess, coupled with the support from her family and the public, suggests a path forward filled with optimism and strength.

Prince William being left out of photos of Prince Harry with Sean “Diddy” Combs in the aftermath of Department of Homeland Security raids on the rapper’s properties has sparked a backlash against the media.

Harry was named in a court filing from music producer Rodney Jones’ $30-million lawsuit against Combs. There is no suggestion the Duke of Sussex knew about, condoned or was in any way implicated in allegations of sex trafficking against Combs.

Articles about the saga used images of Harry with Combs and Kanye West from a concert marking what would have been Princess Diana’s 46th birthday in June, 2007, where William was also present.

Many outlets, however, opted not to use the images that included William. This decision may in part have been simply out of recognition that the Prince of Wales was not mentioned in the court filing, unlike his younger brother. Neither is accused of wrongdoing.

The filing, seen by Newsweek, read: “Mr. Combs was known for throwing the ‘best’ parties. Affiliation with, and or sponsorship of Mr. Combs sex-trafficking parties garnered legitimacy and access to celebrities such as famous athletes, political figures, artists, musicians, and international dignitaries like British Royal Prince Harry.” This was later altered in a second amended complaint to remove the reference to “sex-trafficking parties.”

 

Williams’s omission in some photos sparked fury among Harry and Meghan Markle’s online supporters who felt the “heir” (William) was being protected by the British media at the expense of the “spare.”

Richard Bacon, a U.K. TV presenter, posted an image of the front page of The Sun on X, formerly Twitter, and wrote: “You’ve cut Prince William out of that picture. Harry is literally named in the suit as ‘an example’ of some Diddy has met. He met Prince William at the same event.

“All that courtesy you just showed Kate. Why are you doing this? It doesn’t do you any favours.”

It would appear that William was in fact not actually cut or cropped by the news outlets who ran stories on March 26 as a number of pictures appear on the Getty Images picture library include some that did not have William in them.

However, it would have been possible to publish a picture containing William and some editors clearly chose the images in which he was not pictured.

One social media user wrote: “Why are various news outlets cropping out Prince William from photos relating to this party they both attended?

“Furthermore, Prince Harry is mentioned ad [sic] an example of people P Diddy has associated with. That’s it, no smoking gun, just as an example.”

It should be noted that Harry’s inclusion in media coverage was not simply a product of the fact he has been photographed with Combs, but instead came about due to the decision by lawyers for Jones to name him.

It is not clear why they chose to reference Harry specifically and not William. The Daily Telegraph reported that Harry had only met Combs once, and had not attended any of his parties.

Another Harry and Meghan supporter wrote: “The irony is that the reason why Harry’s name was mentioned was to point out the high-profile nature of people Puff (Combs) got to meet.

“The fact that he was named above Prince William is because, despite the royal heirachy [sic], people have more interest and consider Harry more highly.”

Aaron Dyer, Combs’ attorney, said in a statement released to Newsweek: “Yesterday (March 25), there was a gross overuse of military-level force as search warrants were executed at Mr. Combs’ residences.

“There is no excuse for the excessive show of force and hostility exhibited by authorities or the way his children and employees were treated.

“Mr. Combs was never detained, but spoke to and cooperated with authorities. Despite media speculation, neither Mr. Combs nor any of his family members have been arrested, nor has their ability to travel been restricted in any way.

“This unprecedented ambush—paired with an advanced, coordinated media presence—leads to a premature rush to judgment of Mr. Combs and is nothing more than a witch hunt based on meritless accusations made in civil lawsuits.

“There has been no finding of criminal or civil liability with any of these allegations. Mr. Combs is innocent and will continue to fight every single day to clear his name.”

It’s been six years since Meghan and Harry tied the knot in a fairytale royal wedding at Windsor that was filled with romance and A-list guests, but one royal expert has claimed that whilst Harry seemed to have some nerves on the big day, Meghan very much did not

When Prince Harry married Meghan Markle in a fairytale royal wedding ceremony in Windsor, millions of people watched across the globe, and for many, it seemed to mark a new chapter in the monarchy’s story – with the promise of change in the air. However, within two years the couple had decided that life as working royals was not for them, and they moved across the Atlantic to start new lives in California.

The couple are now celebrating their sixth wedding anniversary, and one expert looking back at the magical 2018 ceremony that was filled with romance has claimed that whilst Harry seemed a little nervous at the start of the couple’s big day, Meghan seemed confident from the outset.

The expert – body language specialist Darren Stanton, speaking on behalf of Betfair Live Casino – explained that as Harry was seen waiting at the altar for his bride-to-be, accompanied by his brother Prince William he seemed “nervous” but as soon as he locked eyes with Meghan who was “calm and confident” he settled down.

“Harry was feeling nervous on his wedding day. He displayed a few nervous smiles, but they were portraying genuine emotion. He tried to convey confidence, but his nerves took control. When he was waiting at the altar with William, you could see his face flushing, as his cheeks went red. But when Meghan arrived, he was more relaxed and could be more at ease with himself,” the expert explained.

However, the body language specialist who previously worked for Derbyshire police, added that in his view, the bride embodied quite contrasting energy. “Meghan was calm and confident on her wedding day with no nervousness. She was very collected and everything seemed to fall into place as she arrived. She took the lead and had a lot of control. Her posture was aligned, she held her head high and her smiles were fully engaged. These are all signs of feeling at peace and confident about themselves. Meghan puts Harry at his ease.”

The expert went on, explaining their combined body language showed real hope for future happiness: “When Harry first saw Meghan on their wedding day, Harry was blown away. He couldn’t stop smiling and couldn’t stop looking her in the eyes. This shows how real their connection is. As soon as they locked eyes with each other, Harry’s body language relaxes. It shows how connected they are as a couple. It means that when they are together and can be themselves, but also feel comfortable when they have each other by their side.”

Queen Elizabeth II first wore sunglasses in public during a royal tour of Australia and New Zealand in 1954.   

She picked a pair of round tortoiseshell frames, a choice that would be considered equally chic today.

Now, the Prince of Wales is making waves with his choice of eyewear.

During a trip to Cornwall earlier this month, William opted for Finlay London‘s ‘Marshall’ sunglasses, a design he also frequently favoured last year.

Interestingly, his brother Prince Harry has worn the same design despite their deep rift.

As for Princess Anne, for years she has worn the same pair of Team GB Adidas sunglasses – demonstrating her preference for practicality over expense.

Elizabeth continued to wear various bespoke designs over the years, particularly after undergoing cataract surgery in 2018.

In later life, Her Majesty wore glasses with transitional lenses from brand Silhouette  that darkened in sunlight.

Here, we explore the eyewear brands endorsed by members of the Royal Family.

While Prince William has recently made waves in Finlay London’s ‘Marshall’ sunglasses, he was not the first royal to wear the British brand.

Prince Harry wore the same design to the F1 Grand Prix in Austin last October.

And a number of royal ladies are fans of the London-based label too.

Meghan Markle showcased their ‘Percy’ tortoiseshell shades in 2017, before she and Harry were engaged.

Meanwhile, Kate Middleton opted for the ‘Henrietta’ style at Wimbledon and also during her royal tour of the Caribbean with William in 2022.

Jack Brooksbank even sported a pair of Finlay London frames on his wedding day to watch Princess Eugenie walk down the aisle at St George’s Chapel.

Adidas

Over the years, Princess Anne has solidified her status as fashion icon, a title that extends to her accessories.

One standout pair of specs from her collection is by Adidas.

The frameless design incorporates red polarised lenses and the Team GB logo – showing how they are more at home with athletes than royalty.

However, Anne has carried off the look on a number of occasions, including during an appearance at the 2018 Chelsea Flower Show.

THE Princess of Wales has been a “driving force” behind a new early years project – but won’t return to work until doctors give her the “green light”.

Kate, 42, is “excited” about the new initiative and has been regularly been “kept up-to-date” despite undergoing preventative treatment for cancer.

The royal has yet to return to her public role four months after undergoing hospital surgery and later revealing her diagnosis.

A senior royal aide said she will only resume those duties once she has the “green light from doctors”.

But, Kate has read a 60-page report on her early years project and is tracking the work – published today.

The mum-of-three launched The Royal Foundation Business Taskforce for Early Childhood in March last year.

A senior royal aide confirmed: “The Princess of Wales was the driving force behind the business task force.

“She has been kept up to date since the inception of the task force and she has read the report and been briefed on it.”

In a speech at Natwest HQ the royal mum-of-three said it was time to think “radically” in order to create a workforce that is “resilient, flexible and able to work through differences with each other”.

She added: “The healthy development of our children relies on healthy adults.”

The report published today suggests investing in early years could add at least £45.5bn to the national economy each year – the equivalent of 25 per cent of government annual spending on the NHS.

Eight major firms – including Iceland, Ikea, Lego and Natwest – have signed up to follow the report’s findings.

The Princess of Wales is said to be keen to see “momentum grow in the coming months and years” as the project she created “is rolling on as she recovers”.

A spokesman for the Princess of Wales said: “This should not be seen as the Princess of Wales returning to work.

“The work of the prince and princess’s projects are always on. That is no different at The Centre for Early Childhood Over the past five months there has been a huge deal of progress.

“However, early childhood is a huge priority for the Princess of Wales.

“She has been kept fully up to date throughout the process and the development of the task force’s work and she has seen the report.”

Kate set up the task force last year and left it in the hands of businesses to develop the report for the Royal Foundation.

Although Kate is not meddling in government policy, it is understood the centre has shown the report and findings to 10 Downing Street and departments of Health and Education.

Christian Guy, executive director of The Royal Foundation Centre for Early Childhood, said: “I know, having briefed the princess on this, that she is enormously grateful to the members of taskforce who have made such fantastic progress on this work over the last year.

“She feels passionately about the transformational impact of getting this right, together with business both for current and generation and many more to come.

“And I know she is keen to encourage all businesses, no matter what their size of purpose, to join us on the journey.

“She is looking forward to seeing momentum grow in the coming months and years ahead.”

Kensington Palace’s original statement on Kate Middleton’s surgery

KENSINGTON Palace released a statement in January after Kate had undergone surgery.

Sources made it clear Kate would be out of action until at least Easter.

The palace said: “The Princess of Wales appreciates the interest this statement will generate.

“She hopes that the public will understand her desire to maintain as much normality for her children as possible; and her wish that her personal medical information remains private.

“Kensington Palace will, therefore, only provide updates on Her Royal Highness’ progress when there is significant new information to share.

“The Princess of Wales wishes to apologise to all those concerned for the fact that she has to postpone her upcoming engagements.

“She looks forward to reinstating as many as possible, as soon as possible.”

Christian added: “She’s excited by it, to have eight of the most significant businesses in Britain come forward to make the case to their fellow business leaders is vital and exciting for her and priority going forward for our centre and her work.

“When she launched it, she really challenged businesses to go beyond the usual thinking.

“That’s why these five areas are set out including social and emotional skills.

“We often hear businesses talk about why they are so important, but we do wait a long time before we focus on them in our system.

“The science shows us they are crucial in early years so she is very excited about that in particular.

“Businesses are saying we want to get involved, invest and shape the future workforce now.”

Kate set up the centre to encourage businesses to prioritise early years and produce a bridge between science and UK businesses.

Proposals announced today include changing business culture to prioritise early childhood, help families access basic support, offer parents greater support and flexibility at work, strengthen social and emotional skills, and support initiatives that increase access to care.

Prince William is a pillar of strength for Kate

EXPERT analysis by author and royal expert, Ingrid Seward:

Steadfast when his family needed him, William has proved himself as a man and future monarch of strength and compassion.

While he might not have been present during Kate’s courageous video address — make no mistake, he has been by her side every step of the way.

William has stepped up with school-run duties and provided a “great source of comfort and reassurance” to his wife.

But he has also been a comforting and reassuring presence for the public.

From leading members of the Royal Family at the Commonwealth Day Service to enjoying cheerful banter with youngsters on a youth centre visit, he hasn’t put a foot wrong.

But ultimately he is only human.

To have your father and your wife diagnosed with cancer in such quick succession is heart-shattering.

It’s a remarkable insight into the character of this young man that he has been so incredibly brave.

Theirs is a very private turmoil which has been brought into the public arena by the nature of their roles as future King and Queen.

William must feel the weight of enormous responsibility, both personally and for the monarchy, of which he is now the public face.

But he knows his most important role is that of dad and husband.

He will make that his priority.

This is a distinct difference from the ways of the past, where your royal role came before the role of spouse and parent.

Think back to when the Queen was young.

William’s priority is his family

It was a man’s world then — and she was forced to abandon her children in a way that William is determined not to.

William and Kate waited until the school term was over and their children were home before making their public announcement.

They needed to be prepared.

In this, they will have had the wholehearted support of Charles — who knows what it feels like to be brought up by nannies.

William was also acutely aware of the lack of his own father’s presence in his life, especially when things went wrong.

In 1991, he was accidentally hit over the head with a golf club when he was at school and Diana was having lunch in her favourite restaurant San Lorenzo.

The call came through that William had been bashed on the head and they thought he might die so it was very serious.

Both Charles and Diana rushed down to Ludgrove.

William was taken to the Royal Berkshire Hospital and then to Great Ormond Street Hospital and Diana went with him.

But ever a man of duty, Charles prioritised his engagements.

William is determined to do things differently.

Anthony Joshua is expected to face Tyson Fury later this year, according to Eddie Hearne, but the Gypsy King has to defeat Oleksandr Usyk first.

For nearly the whole of their individual careers, fans have been talking about a Battle of Britain battle between the two heavyweight legends, and it now seems like it could happen.

The heavyweight division appears to be headed toward unification with Joshua’s fight against Usyk, but Joshua must first get past fights against Dillon Whyte and Deontay Wilder, as Hearn confirmed the 34-year-old’s next immediate opponents.

Joshua, who is backed by Hearn’s Matchroom Boxing, is awaiting the announcement of his next opponent after defeating Francis Ngannou, the former UFC heavyweight champion.

During a recent interview with Piers Morgan, Hearn answered a question on darts prodigy Luke Littler and disclosed the likelihood of Joshua facing Fury in the ring later this year.

According to Eddie Hearne, Anthony Joshua will face Tyson Fury later this year.

Hearn claimed that negotiations between the two camps are complicated at times and Fury ‘only cares about the money’

‘Because the darts Championship happens in December and January, I’m gonna say that Fury vs AJ happens this year,’ he said.

‘So I’m gonna say Fury vs AJ [happens first].’

There have been many setbacks in the protracted dispute about whether and when the two would ultimately square off, and there are still many more to come as both parties try to reach an agreement.

Although Fury and Joshua had previously agreed to a fight, it was ultimately canceled when negotiations fell down, and Fury went on to face Deontay Wilder in a trilogy bout.

In the meanwhile, Usyk stunned the field by defeating Joshua twice to win the British champion titles.

Joshua is scheduled to take on Dillon Whyte after eliminating former UFC star Francis Ngannou in his most recent bout.

Fury is set to fight Oleksanr Usy in a heavyweight unification bout later this year

‘Everybody wants to see this fight and on August 12, Anthony Joshua will fight Dillion Whyte, after that he will fight Deontay Wilder in Saudi Arabia and then after that it has to be Tyson Fury’ said Hearn.

Tyson Fury turned down the Usyk fight, the mort important fight in boxing, the undisputed heavyweight worl d championship to fight an MMA fighter who has never had a fight before in his life.

‘We have to be honest, Fury cares about one thing only, the money.’

The 44-year-old later explained that Fury must beat both Usyk and Joshua to be a true boxing great, adding: ‘He has to beat Usyk and he has to beat Anthony Joshua, particularly Usyk.’

Official confirmation has been made about the undercard of Tyson Fury’s undisputed title fight vs Oleksandr Usyk on May 18.

As part of Saudi Arabia’s Riyadh Season, Fury and Usyk will finally square off in the ring to determine who will become the first undisputed heavyweight champion of the four-belt era.

After Lennox Lewis defeated Evander Holyfield in March 1999, the division will once again be united by the winner of the eagerly awaited fight.

It is expected that Fury and Usyk won’t be the only heavyweights on the event given that His Excellency Turki Alalshikh enjoys big punchers.

Frank Sanchez and Agit Kabayel, two heavyweight contenders, have been added to the undercard of the fight scheduled for May 18 at the Kingdom Arena in Saudi Arabia.

The confirmed undercard for Oleksandr Usyk and Tyson Fury’s undisputed title bout has been revealed.

Agit Kabayel and Frank Sanchez, two heavyweight contenders, have been added to the undercard of the fight scheduled for May 18 at the Kingdom Arena in Saudi Arabia.

On May 18, Jai Opetaia (right), who stunned Ellis Zorro with a knockout on the Day of Reckoning show in Saudi Arabia last December, will take on Mairis Briedis.

After unexpectedly defeating undefeated heavyweight contender Arslanbek Makhmudov via fourth-round knockout on the “Day of Reckoning” show in December of last year, Kabayel (24-0, 16 KOs) will be feeling confident going into the bout.

Boxing aficionados believed that Makhmudov would easily defeat Kabayel. But the heavyweight, who was born in Germany, dropped Makhmudov three times after focusing on his physique.

Sanchez (24-0, 17 KOs) enters the fight fresh off a seventh-round knockout victory over Junior Fa in December of last year. Although Fa had lost two of his previous three fights, Sanchez gave a strong showing.

On May 18, Jai Opetaia, who stunned Ellis Zorro with a knockout on the Day of Reckoning show in Saudi Arabia last December, will square off against Mairis Briedis.

In July 2022, Opetaia defeated Briedis over twelve rounds, demonstrating his superiority over the three-time cruiserweight champion. However, he needs to repeat the performance if he hopes to win the title again.

The 28-year-old Australian says he is excited to reclaim the title after losing to Zorro in December, when he was stripped of it.

In the meanwhile, Ireland’s Anthony Cacace will challenge Joe Cordina for the IBF super-featherweight title in a homecoming match.

The 32-year-old Welshman had previously defeated Shavkatdzhon Rakhimov to retain his title, and he faced Edward Vazquez in a title defense at the Casino de Monte Carlo Salle Medecin.

Moses Itauma, who had a brawl with the Gypsy King, will also be seen on the undercard.

Eddie Hearn claims that Cordina, who trains with Conor Benn under Tony Sims’s supervision, is the “greatest 130-pound fighter on the globe” and that she will support him to win.

Mark Chamberlain, who previously fought Anthony Joshua and Francis Ngannou on the undercard of their heavyweight bout in Riyadh, will make a return trip to Saudi Arabia to take on Joshua Oluwaseun.

Following his performance at York Hall, His Excellency personally selected Chamberlain, one of Alalshikh’s favorite boxers, to face Gavin Gwynne on the Knockout Chaos event.

Moses Itauma, who recently sparred with the Gypsy King, will also be seen on the undercard of Fury vs. Usyk. The 19-year-old sensation will take against Ilja Mazencev. She has promised to shatter Mike Tyson’s record and become the youngest world champion in history.

Isaac Lowe of England will fight Hasibullah Ahmadi at featherweight, while New Zealand Olympian David Nyika will compete against Michael Seitz at cruiserweight.

In the cruiserweight division, undefeated Robin Sirwan Safar will square up against former long-standing light heavyweight world champion Sergey Kovalev.

Anthony Joshua‘s next fight – and its venue – may have been leaked by Derek Chisora.

Joshua is riding the crest of a wave after stunning Francis Ngannou in the pair’s heavyweight clash earlier this year, knocking out the former MMA star in the second round of their highly-anticipated clash.

The Brit threw himself back into the conversation for a world title fight next up, and had seemingly been set to face the winner of Tyson Fury’s bout with Oleksandr Usyk.

That fight will take place on May 18, leaving Joshua seemingly waiting to find out his next opponent and seal a deal to fight in one of the biggest boxing bouts of all time in an undisputed fight.

Speaking to iFL TV, however, Chisora claimed to know the details of AJ’s next bout, and said that it won’t be against Fury or Usyk.

Derek Chisora, however, has suggested that his fellow Brit will instead take on the winner of a different fight

‘He [Joshua] will fight the winner of Daniel Dubois and [Filip] Hrgovic in Wembley,’ Chisora said.

Dubois and the undefeated Fans have been preparing themselves for an undisputed fight, with either an all-British clash or Joshua vs Usyk three on the agenda in Saudi Arabia.

Fury previously told Mail Sport that he was planning to face the winner of the bout, but was reluctant to make promises while in Saudi Arabia for Joshua’s clash with Ngannou.

‘Whoever wins it’s big for me,’ he said earlier this year. ‘If AJ wins, it’s a good opportunity for a big British showdown again, and if Ngannou wins, and it’s a good opportunity for a rematch for me.

‘So it’s, it’s a win win for me. Yeah, make no mistake that the winner of this, I will potentially give them a world title shot later on in this year or next’.

Fans have waited to see who would be crowned undisputed champion in Usyk’s bout with Fury, which many had claimed would see the best heavyweight crowned once and for all.

Joshua has improved since back-to-back defeats to Usyk, however, and Eddie Hearn was among those to claimed that Joshua is again the best in the world.

‘If we won this fight then he would fight the winner of Fury vs Usyk,’ Hearn said in the aftermath of Joshua’s win over Ngannou. ‘You’re looking at the number one heavyweight in the world.

‘Tyson Fury please beat Usyk because you will get the biggest fight in the history of the sport. As a fighter, he’s an inspiration to young people.’
