jig is up — and it’s going viral. As things are shaking up in Buckingham Palace, Princess of Wales Kate Middleton’s savvy secret to looking picture-perfect in photos is becoming all the rage online. “Royals fans are going crazy for the ‘Princess Shuffle’ that Kate uses to discreetly get closer to people in pictures,” wrote TikTok account @The.Royal.Watcher — a profile dedicated to all things related to the crown. The clip, which has fetched a staggering 2.4 million views, features recently resurfaced footage of Middleton, 41, meeting with Mary, Crown Princess of Denmark, and Queen Margrethe II at Christian IX’s Palace in February 2022.As royal photographers begin snapping frames of the distinguished dignitaries, Middleton, donning a posh pair of black stilettos, is seen doing a subtle heel-to-toe jig, scooting closer to her hosts without looking down at her feet. And fans of the well-regarded Windsor family are going wild over the footwork. “‘The Princess Shuffle!’ I love everything about this,” praised a diehard of Middleton’s moves. “That’s a neat trick! Years of practice!” cheered another. “Shufffffffle!! Discreet and elegant love you Kate,” an equally impressed fanatic raved. “And in heels! I would definitely get caught on the carpet and wipe out,” another joked. However, not everyone was dazzled by the royal’s ability to photogenically cut a rug. “This is less discreet and less smooth than just taking that tiny step over,” spat an underwhelmed onlooker. “You mean she takes a step to the side? I’m certain that is the most important thing she has done in years,” said another, lightly shading Middleton, wife to Prince William and mother of three. #fyp #katemiddleton #katemiddletonstyle #princessofwales #princewilliam

heir travel in his name.King Charles has reportedly refused to have Terminal 5 at London’s Heathrow Airport renamed after him — a gesture that the airport intended to make in honor of his upcoming May 6 coronation.The king allegedly “called in ministers,” members of the United Kingdom’s government, to politely reject the airport’s offer, according to the Times newspaper.The Post reached out to reps for the royal family as well as Heathrow Airport for further comment.A government source told the British outlet that Charles wasn’t keen on accepting the proposal due to “environmental considerations.” But another palace insider alleged that he didn’t want to accept the recognition for a different reason, citing that the monarch did not have much of a connection to the airport itself. In lieu of their original plan, the airport will now be making a measly “commemorative luggage tag” as a tribute to the king’s coronation.

“Prevent Program,” claiming that it — along with works such as the “The Lord of the Rings” books, William Shakespeare’s writings and the “Great British Railway Journeys” docuseries — could lead viewers toward right-wing extremism. But 89-year-old Caine denounced that claim in an interview with The Spectator, saying, “That is the biggest load of bulls–t I have ever heard.”“Zulu” tells the story of the 1879 Battle of Rorke’s Drift amid the Anglo-Zulu war, including a scene in which 150 British soldiers fight off 4,000 Zulu warriors. But the Daily Mail reported that the film is facing criticism for its alleged “racist overtones” and “factual inaccuracies.”Caine, a two-time Oscar winner, was discovered by a “Zulu” producer while performing in a play at a theater in London’s West End.“An American director who was in the audience saw me and gave me a part in the film ‘Zulu’ as a posh officer. This made me a star and I never went back on the stage again,” he told The Spectator.

author Cash Carraway, is set in England and follows struggling and impoverished single mother Costello Jones (Cooper), her daughter Iris (Fleur Tashjian) and Costello’s best friend Selby (Jack Farthing, “Poldark”) — a wealthy gay man who is Costello’s pseudo “soul mate” and Iris’ father-figure. “It’s an unconventional love story, really,” Cooper, 36, told The Post. “[Costello and Selby] are from opposite ends of the spectrum.

paid his respects to Queen Elizabeth Thursday, months after the duo participated in a heartwarming skit for the late monarch’s Platinum Jubilee in June.Paddington and Elizabeth warmed the hearts of all in a hilarious afternoon-tea sketch where they bonded over their love of marmalade sandwiches.“Thank you Ma’am, for everything,” tweeted the bear.The sketch, which kick-started the festival on June 4, shows Paddington and Elizabeth sitting down to a nice cup of tea before the bear guzzles down nearly all of the beverage before serving the monarch only a few drops. Paddington then offers Elizabeth a marmalade sandwich he had stored in his hat “just in case.” “So do I,” she replies, taking out a sandwich from her iconic handbag.

Platinum Jubilee flyover will go down in history. The 4-year-old son of Prince William and Kate Middleton, the Duchess of Cambridge, became instant meme-worthy gold for images of him covering his ears and making “Home Alone” Macaulay Culkin-inspired faces while standing next to his great-grandma.

celebrating 70 years as the British empire’s monarch with much pomp and circumstance right now — but that hasn’t drowned out the UK’s noisy fight for political change.If #AbolishTheMonarchy trending on Twitter the same day the four-day Platinum Jubilee launches is any indication, some Brits would like to see Elizabeth be the last monarch.The anti-monarchy group Republic has declared it would like to replace the royals with an elected head of state, especially as the unpopular — in some circles — Prince Charles would take over the throne once his mother dies.In January, Reuters reported that polls indicate the vast majority of people in Britain support the monarchy, and the queen herself is hugely popular. However, there is just not as much support for her eldest son and heir, Charles, and surveys suggest there is growing desire to “ditch the monarchy” among younger Britons.One wannabe activist tweeted on Thursday: “#AbolishTheMonarchy trending during the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee bank holiday is beautiful.”Other users called it “nice” and “very refreshing” to see the phrase trending during the queen’s celebratory festivities.

Every day is a bigger percentage of the rest of your life and we don’t know what percentage that will be.

Jacobi, 83, took over for Season 3, portraying the royal in his older years.George VI and King Edward VIII famously had a contentious relationship, with the latter abdicating the throne after less than a year in power back in 1936 so he could marry his beloved Wallis Simpson.

cult-like fan hype of Harry Styles.Gallagher, 54, blasted the former One Direction member, 28, in an interview with the Daily Star, calling him not a “real” musician” and rendering his music “worthless.”The oft-blunt guitarist gave his thoughts on singers who found fame on the U.K. musical competitions series, “The X-Factor.” ”The X Factor’ is a TV show, it’s got nothing to do with music, it’s got nothing to do with music whatsoever, and anything that has come from that, that’s got nothing to do with music,” Gallagher said.Styles famously won the 2010 series of the show alongside former bandmates Zayn Malik, Niall Horan, Liam Payne and Louis Tomlinson.“You’re not telling me Harry Styles is currently in a room somewhere writing a song,” Gallagher continued, “With any joy, he’ll be surrounded by a lot of girls.He added, “I can assure you he’s not got an acoustic guitar out trying to write a middle eight for something.”The “Wonderwall” crooner previously denounced the “Watermelon Sugar” singer in 2017, when the latter released his first solo single “Sign of the Times.”Gallagher shook his head at his peers for collaborating on wiring songs with younger pop stars like Styles.
