It was revealed last week that the Princess of Wales will not travel with Prince William to Singapore in November for the third annual Earthshot Prize Awards ceremony.

It is a huge challenge to name any new royal baby, especially if that youngster is destined to one day be king or queen. Almost every royal name has at least one, if not more, links to previous royals. Whether it is William, George, Henry or Elizabeth, it is important that there are no overriding historical associations which will affect their future.

Thanks to her extensive and impressive work in the field of early years development, the Princess of Wales is in the perfect position to practice what she preaches at home with her own children, Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis.

'Royals will have to put on charm offensive in Commonwealth - but the King is ready'

With the King and Queen currently undertaking the second official tour of the new reign in France, a royal expert explains why it is more important than ever that the royals launch a "charm offensive" in the Commonwealth.Their Majesties previously visited Germany and were due to travel to France on the same tour but were forced to reschedule - at President Macron's request - after riots in the French Capital made it too dangerous. With two visits to Europe under his belt, and no announced plans for any tours in any major Commonwealth countries, questions have been asked when the King will travel to other countries where he is Head of State, such as Australia, New Zealand and Canada.This is especially true after ongoing suggestions that some realms may wish to follow in Barbados' example and strike out on their own.

The Prince and Princess of Wales recently left little doubt that they intend to secure their future as a forward-thinking brand with the news that they are looking to hire a Chief Executive Officer (CEO).The successful applicant must "bring a track record of strategic and cultural leadership in complex, fast-paced settings, and the ability to demonstrate core values of discretion, humility, integrity, and diplomacy", as well as have a "low ego".They will head up around 60 people and be answerable to the royal couple themselves.

'Meghan was naive saying royals were too formal in private - they are just like any family'

The recent appearance of the Princess Royal and the Prince and Princess of Wales on Mike Tindall's podcast 'The Good, the Bad and the Rugby' served to prove that the Royal Family are great fun behind closed doors and enjoy everything from playing beer pong to racing in barefoot to cold water swimming.This clear sense of fun and informality jars with claims made by Meghan Markle on her and Prince Harry's Netflix series that the Royal Family are standoffish in private. She said: "I guess I started to understand very quickly that the formality on the outside carried through on the inside.That there is a forward-facing way of being and then you close the door and 'phew I can relax now' but that formality carries over on both sides.
