British counter-intelligence is investigating how the Duke of York came to trust the now-exiled Chinese figure as his "confidante."

A magazine once favoured by Meghan Markle has seemingly turned its back on the Duchess of Sussex with a rather harsh critique.The negative article in The Cut, titled Harry and Meghan's Projects Can't Stop Flopping, was penned by pop culture news and entertainment writer Danielle Cohen. She commented on the couple's "tortured attempts to launch a successful Stateside endeavour", which she noted "continued this week" with the release of Polo on Netflix.The five-part series about Prince Harry's favourite sport has been met with less than stellar reviews, leading Cohen to predict: "Seems like this one is bound for the same fate as Markle's beleaguered jam company." This critique comes hot on the heels of The Cut spotlighting the struggles faced by Meghan's American Riviera Orchard "lifestyle brand", which launched by gifting jars of strawberry jam to celebs such as Kris Jenner and Chrissy Teigen.This was followed by allegations that staff were leaving the new company, along with a trademark dispute from US food and gift company Harry and David, which sells Royal Riviera Pears.

Conservative former security minister Tom Tugendhat expressed concerns over the potential influence the alleged agent might have had on the royal.

Every Christmas, each royal residence receives a glamorous glow-up. Windsor Castle and the Palace of Holyroodhouse in Edinburgh are the focuses for the festive transformations and the complex preparations are overseen by a vast ‘bling’ squad, involving florists, exhibition staff and curators from the Royal Collection Trust (RCT).The number of trees used varies from year to year but one thing never changes: the challenges faced by the project team.

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have pursued a number of avenues since their departure from royal life, including creating content for podcasts with Spotify and documentaries for Netflix which have focused on their personal and charitable interests.
