Palace Intrigue: Harry, Meghan & the Crown. Royal Family News and Gossip.

THE 2019 LETTER, THE MET’S REVIEW, AND A KING ON A TIGHTROPE: THE WEEK THE PERFORMANCE STOPPED

The Metropolitan Police has confirmed it received a letter in 2019 containing a number of claims about alleged offending outside the UK relating to Meghan’s father, Thomas Markle Sr., shared it with the Sussexes, and did not pass it to any other law enforcement agency. The force is reviewing its handling and weighing a referral to the police watchdog; it is not itself investigating him. Authorities in the Philippines are. He denies everything and has not been charged. Mark Francis handles it briefly and carefully — and then turns to the King’s nine-day Caribbean tour into the reparations question, William on Graham Norton, and the Duchy tenants who say they’ve been given six months to buy or leave.

It's another round of “Kate Is Wonderful” coverage, beginning with HELLO!'s praise for the Princess of Wales and her supposedly perfect royal curtsy during the Sultan of Oman's state visit.
But behind the compliments lies a bigger question: How much should the Royal Family try to appear ordinary?

Royal historians explain why William and Catherine's domestic anecdotes, Camilla's descriptions of quiet evenings with King Charles and carefully shared family moments are part of a centuries-old balancing act between relatability and royal mystique.

Kate's yellow state banquet gown also receives a glowing technical assessment from designer Amanda Wakeley, who explains the challenges of creating a dress suitable for a major royal occasion.

Meanwhile, Prince William is reportedly preparing significant changes for his eventual reign. The Prince of Wales has said he wants to question established traditions and make the monarchy more relevant, while insiders suggest he has little patience for doing things simply because they've always been done that way.

And royal author Robert Jobson reveals how Carole Middleton became an important source of emotional and practical support for William during Catherine's health challenges. According to Jobson, Carole helped care for George, Charlotte and Louis, kept the family's freezer stocked and even took William to the pub when he needed someone to talk to.

Harry and Meghan announce they're stepping back from royal duties. Charles tries to negotiate, but Harry is resolute. The Oprah interview airs in March 2021, with Harry revealing that Charles stopped taking his calls and cut him off financially. Charles feels betrayed—he thought he was protecting the institution. Harry feels abandoned—he thought his father would protect him and Meghan. The rift mirrors Charles's own relationship with his parents. History repeating itself.
