    2026/02/03
    Meghan Markle faces fresh online ridicule after unveiling a new black-and-white image for her As Ever brand, with critics accusing her of cosplaying Audrey Hepburn — and others comparing her to Inspector Gadget. Prince Harry is also mocked after being announced as a keynote speaker at a major privacy conference, fueling questions about his standalone appeal. Behind the scenes, sources say tensions are flaring again over Meghan’s social media posts featuring glimpses of their children, reopening old wounds about privacy and control. Commentators pile on claims that Meghan is copying Princess Catherine’s fashion playbook, while PR experts argue Harry is stuck between duty and Hollywood, struggling to manage optics in a world that doesn’t allow selective visibility.

  • Marius Borg Høiby Trial Begins as Epstein Ties Haunt Norway’s Crown Princess
    2026/02/03
    Norway’s royal family faces unprecedented scrutiny as Marius Borg Høiby, the adult son of Crown Princess Mette-Marit, appears in court on dozens of serious criminal charges, including multiple rape allegations. Although Høiby holds no royal title, the scale of the case has shaken a monarchy long considered scandal-free, forcing Crown Prince Haakon to publicly distance the institution while emphasizing faith in the rule of law. The trial unfolds amid deep personal strain for the family, including Mette-Marit’s worsening health and renewed attention on past links to Jeffrey Epstein.

    Meanwhile, newly released Epstein emails deliver another damaging chapter for the Duke of York’s family, exposing Sarah Ferguson’s intimate correspondence, financial appeals, and apparent role in efforts to rehabilitate Epstein’s reputation long after his conviction. The emails also reference Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie, intensifying the reputational fallout. Together, the stories underline how proximity to power, privilege, and silence continue to collide with accountability across Europe’s royal houses.

  • King Charles Scrambles Over Andrew Housing Mess as William Cheers Football
    2026/02/02
    King Charles may be forced to rethink plans to move Prince Andrew into a modest farmhouse on the Sandringham estate after reports of security headaches, pest problems, and Andrew himself branding the property “poky.” As insiders warn that both Andrew and Sarah Ferguson may need to lower expectations — or even leave the UK entirely — commentators also caution Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie about the reputational risks of standing publicly by their father. Meanwhile, Andrew’s Pitch@Palace Global venture quietly collapses, Prince William celebrates a dramatic Aston Villa comeback, prepares for a sensitive Saudi Arabia visit tied to a next-generation fighter jet project, and the King and Queen follow William’s lead by publicly backing Britain’s struggling pub trade.

  • Sundance Empty Seats, Harry vs Trump, and the Most Brutal Fight Yet. The week in royal news with Mark Francis
    2026/02/01
    Harry/Meghan at Sundance for Cookie Queens screening—Page Six reports 150 seats reserved for high-paying pass holders left unclaimed, 60 seats unoccupied throughout. Insider: "For Harry to go from the hearing—and pleading for privacy—to then go to Sundance just days after is nuts." Previous day's screening (Olivia Wilde's The Invite) turned away 100 ticket holders after selling out.

    Harry rebuked Trump over Afghanistan NATO comments—Trump claimed allies "stayed a little back, a little off the frontlines." Harry: "I served there. I made lifelong friends there. And I lost friends there. UK alone had 457 service personnel killed. Those sacrifices deserve to be spoken about truthfully." Trump walked back remarks after King Charles intervened. Kate's Rose Hanbury affair wounds reopened—Radar Online: "When rumors first began circulating, Kate was deeply shaken. Any time Rose surfaces at an event connected to royal world, it reopens old emotional wounds."

    Camilla "hopping mad" about Kate's tiara, "panicked about where she'll stand." Charles pressuring Kate as "last viable bridge" between brothers: "Everyone needs to grow up." Harry/Meghan locked in "most brutal fight yet" over children's visibility—sources fear "could be thing that finally breaks marriage." Deep Crown: "I remain entirely convinced Duke will not leave his children. Institution lost him; children will not." As Ever Valentine's flop—$42 trio sets, candle with no wick, no new products.

  • Andrew’s Epstein Cover Story Collapses as Palace Emails and Photos Emerge
    2026/02/01
    Newly released U.S. Department of Justice documents reveal a far deeper and longer-running relationship between Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor and convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein than previously acknowledged, including emails exchanged well after Andrew publicly claimed he had cut ties. The correspondence shows Epstein being invited to Buckingham Palace for “lots of privacy,” discussions about meeting women, financial contacts described as “super flush with cash,” and warm exchanges continuing into 2011. The files also include emails involving Sarah Ferguson requesting emergency cash, a controversial photograph now circulating online, and renewed scrutiny over Andrew’s failure to cooperate with U.S. investigators. Commentators warn the revelations reopen questions about palace oversight, accountability, and whether King Charles has gone far enough in sidelining his brother — with some arguing only a future King William will fully sever Andrew from royal life.

    2026/01/31

  • Crown and Controversy - Prince Andrew - 7. The Family Reckoning
    2026/01/31
    After the Queen’s death in 2022, Charles inherited not only the crown — but his brother’s scandal. The new king faced an impossible choice: protect the family or protect the throne. With William’s firm backing, Charles moved quietly but decisively to isolate Andrew. Invitations stopped coming. Funding was cut. The doors of Buckingham Palace closed. Behind the scenes, the monarchy was cleansing itself to survive another century.
