Diana, Princess of Wales was praised time and time again for raising her two sons, Prince William and Prince Harry, as normally as their circumstances would allow.The late royal's biographer, Andrew Morton, previously said: “She took the young royals with her on her private charity visits from a young age… One of the reasons was she didn't want the boys to grow up thinking the whole world was 4x4 Range Rovers, shotguns and nannies.” As well as offering her sons a glimpse of the real world, Diana was famous for being the chief prankster of the family. She often did cheeky things or bought naughty gifts for her sons to embarrass them with.

Prince William recently revealed the only time he had ever cried watching sport was when his cousin Zara Tindall won gold medals at the European Eventing Championship.

King Charles and Queen Camilla wanted Kate Middleton to change the way she spelt her name when she joined the Royal Family, Prince Harry claimed.

shared on X, the mom of three was all smiles as they greeted a group of children outside the school.When asked who she is, Kate was heard responding, “Who am I? I’m married to William,” she explained while pointing toward her husband, who was not shown in the clip.The answer may come as a surprise to some, as Kate did not introduce herself as a Princess or a member of the royal family.“I really like your school,” she can be heard telling students in the video, before high-fiving one child in the crowd.“It was very nice to meet all of you,” she added, wrapping up her conversation with the kids.Princess Kate’s humble answer highlighted her supportive role to Prince William, who is next in line to the throne.And the pair’s sweet outing comes just days after her father-in-law, King Charles, revealed new details about William’s sweet proposal to her.During his and his wife Queen Camilla’s five-day trip to Kenya, the monarch conveyed just how special Kenya is to the royal family in a speech at a state banquet.“It was here, in sight of Mount Kenya, that my son, the Prince of Wales, proposed to his wife, now my beloved daughter-in-law,” he said.William famously popped the all-important question to Kate on Oct. 20, 2010, but news of their engagement didn’t become public knowledge until Nov.

King Charles couldn’t help but gush over his son Prince William’s sweet proposal to Kate Middleton during his and wife Queen Camilla’s five-day trip to Kenya.In a speech Thursday, the King conveyed just how special Kenya is to the royal family, revealing details about the Prince and Princess of Wales’s engagement.“It was here, in sight of Mount Kenya, that my son, the Prince of Wales, proposed to his wife, now my beloved daughter-in-law,” Charles said at a state banquet.William famously popped the all-important question to Kate on Oct. 20, 2010.However unlike most proposals, this one was not a surprise for the couple as planning for it had been in the works for some time, according to reports.The pair had been dating for eight years prior to the engagement, and first met during their respective stints at the University of St.

told Closer magazine.“They may have moved to California, but it’s William and Kate who had the most support out there, and there is a certain level of smugness about that.”“They insist that they’d be doing this regardless of where the Sussexes live, but there is no doubt they’ll enjoy showing Meghan and Harry how Hollywood is still very much obsessed with all things royal,” the insider added.According to reports, the Waleses will be kickstarting their Earthshot initiative before planning to “tap all their celebrity friends for help.”To get the ball rolling, William — the heir to the throne — in September flew to NYC to find “trailblazing climate solutions to repair our planet by 2030.”Now, William and Kate are reportedly looking to get their celebrity pals — including Tom Cruise, Taylor Swift, and Tom Hanks — on board with the project.“Everyone wants to be around them,” a source said of the Waleses.The new report seemingly echoes PR expert Andy Barr’s recent comments about the Sussexes, claiming that they are “jealous” of William and Kate’s advantage submitting a trademark application in the US.Barr told the Mirror that Harry and Meghan would be somewhat envious of the doors that would potentially open to William and Kate — should they wish to take on the States.“Whilst Harry and Meghan have a powerful and well established network of celebrity friends and ‘fixers’, there is no substitute for being an actual, fully paid up member of the royal family,” Barr told the outlet.“The global interest and intrigue in the British Royal Family means that they are guaranteed crowds wherever they go and whatever they do.”William reportedly submitted an application to the US Patent and Trademark Office on May 12 to trademark “The Royal

The late Queen was never short of one-liners, quick responses, and cheeky comments, and her wicked sense of humour allowed her to connect with members of the public throughout her long reign. But one of her most famous jokes wasn't very flattering to her eldest son, King Charles, when he welcomed his first son, Prince William, at St Mary's Hospital in London on June 21, 1982. While you would imagine that a grandmother would be full of nothing but joy at the new addition to her family, the late monarch couldn't help but pull a few jokes and poked fun at one family trait the new baby didn't appear to have inherited.

The Middleton family expanded again recently after the happy news that James Middleton and his wife Alizee had welcomed their first son, Inigo Middleton.The youngster is the seventh grandchild of Carole and Michael Middleton, as well as a nephew of both the Prince and Princess of Wales and Pippa and James Matthews.

They're known for a shared love of sport as well as a bit of healthy competition, so the Prince and Princess of Wales wasted no time in getting stuck into a mountain biking challenge on a trip to Scotland.

totally “dependent” on wife Meghan Markle “for his social life,” according to a royal expert.Since stepping back as senior members of the royal family in 2020, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex hightailed it across the pond in a bid to start afresh.Since uprooting his life and starting from scratch in Montecito, Calif., the duke has apparently done the same with his friendships.And royal author Phil Dampier claims that Harry now relies on his wife’s friendships for a lot of his social interactions in the Golden State.“I get the impression he hasn’t got a circle of drinking buddies he can unwind within Montecito, which has a population of older people, and I’m sure that takes its toll,” Dampier told Fabulous Magazine (via The Mirror).“Not only has he lost his family, his royal status and military connections, but he’s also lost a lot of friends,” he said, adding that there has been “a massive cost for Harry” leaving his home soil.Dampier says that the duke, 39, now depends on Markle, 42, “for his social life.”The expert’s comments echo that of Grant Harrold, who worked for the monarch for seven years when he was the Prince of Wales.Harrold recently claimed that Harry has cut all ties with friends he once shared with brother Prince William.“I know quite a few of Harry’s friends, who don’t hear from him at all now,” Harrold remarked.The duke was famously a no-show at his friend Jack Mann’s wedding in July — despite him being in the wedding party at their own nuptials.The Sussexes’ absence came as a surprise to guests, especially since Mann — who is a longtime polo friend of Harry’s — appeared in the “band of brothers” photo at Windsor Castle on May 19, 2018.Mann, who was reportedly known as Harry’s “unofficial best man,” has

consecutive attacks on the royal family.“When Harry was originally compiling his book, his publisher was confident William wouldn’t comment, because it wouldn’t be fitting for a future King to do so,” a source told New Magazine (via OK! Magazine).“Harry wouldn’t have anticipated such a comeback from Kate’s family. He and Meghan won’t like it one bit.”As well as sharing “private family details,” Goldsmith reportedly hopes to release the book one year on from the Duke of Sussex’s bombshell book, “Spare.”Goldsmith, 58, first teased plans to publish a memoir in 2013 after raking in $36 million through his successful IT business.And while he initially did not want to reveal any details relating to his family or his Princess niece, it appears as though Goldsmith has done a U-turn.“Gary has been talking to the press a lot lately and his comments seem to have gone down well with some people, especially his criticism of Harry and Meghan,” the insider said.“He did originally plan to focus the book on himself and his journey to becoming a millionaire, but he will now add in some private family details.”While there will be a revelation or two in the memoir, sources told the outlet that Carole and Kate will look at the manuscript before it gets passed on to the publisher for print.“Gary is still very close to both Carole and Kate,” the source added.

The Princess of Wales is highly regarded for her interests in physical wellbeing, children's development and mental health. And, as a result, she has made a name for herself for her impressive work in the field of Early Years Development.

kids Prince George, Prince Louis and Princess Charlotte.“The Princess of Wales has remained broadly controversy-free for years,” James told the Daily Express recently. The expert continued: “She’s kept her head down, not made a fuss, worked hard and dedicated herself to good causes.”“Given the context, of course, the press has given her a free pass to the benefit of the doubt,” he said.Middleton, 41, announced earlier this year that she would be skipping William’s trip to New York City for the Earthshot Prize Summit in order to stay with George, 10, as he takes his school exams.James went on: “When she says she wants to miss Earthshot to focus on parenting, people trust that that is probably the case.”According to the publicist, the way that Middleton and her husband, 41, have handled estranged brother Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s recent attacks on them have earned them great respect from the public.The Invictus Games founder, 39, penned a series of scathing words about his sister-in-law in his memoir, “Spare,” that was published in January.In the book, Harry wrote about Middleton’s tense relationship with the “Suits” star, 42, including describing the bridesmaid dress fallout between the two women.An infamous incident allegedly occurred when the Duchess of Sussex claimed Middleton made her burst into tears just days before her nuptials at St George’s Chapel in 2018.Five years on, their apparently glacial relationship is still making headlines, and Markle believes that the mother of three and William still haven’t taken responsibility for their hostile actions.

Daily Express Sunday that Victoria, who occupied the throne from 1837 to 1901, wanted members of her household to have “complete self-respect and good behavior when in front of the general public.”The rule has endured all the way to current members of the royal family — though it’s noticeably less strictly enforced. In 1941, then-Princess Elizabeth and her sister, Margaret, dressed up as Cinderella to take part in a re-enactment of the fable.

The Princess of Wales’ uncle is preparing to “set the record straight” in a tell-all memoir one year on from the Sussexes’ explosive tell-all Netflix docuseries and Prince Harry’s book, Spare. Gary Goldsmith - the younger brother of Kate’s mother, Carole Middleton - will use this as an opportunity to give the Middleton family “a voice” in the midst of accusations and criticism levelled at the House of Windsor by the Duke and Duchess of Sussex.
