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

A new idea for Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s life in Britain is emerging: “private royals plus,” with the Sussexes remaining non-working royals while potentially joining King Charles and the family for occasions such as Christmas at Sandringham. But Prince William and Princess Catherine may present the biggest obstacle. Royal insiders also warn that Harry and Meghan’s UK appearances will now require greater coordination with Buckingham Palace, while critics demand strict boundaries preventing any revival of the old half-in, half-out model. Plus, Mark Dolan attacks the Sussexes’ latest reinvention, speculation continues about Meghan’s acting future and another possible book, and the New York Times asks whether America ever really needed actual royalty.

It’s a strange day in royal news. King Charles is losing Lieutenant Colonel Jonny Thompson — the famously photogenic senior equerry once declared “exceedingly handsome” by Martha Stewart — as he prepares to leave royal and military service. Prince William gets an equally unusual honor when Robert Irwin names a twelve-foot Australian crocodile after him, while Queen Camilla nearly lands a cameo on Only Murders in the Building. Plus, Harry and Meghan sharply deny reports they’ll attend an upcoming Diana Award dinner, Meghan launches a new As Ever sparkling wine while taking heat over her suspiciously pristine gardening, and Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor faces a direct accusation from a U.S. congressman as reports suggest he’s enjoying the French Riviera — and may even be shopping for a home there.

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are reportedly staying indefinitely at a wealthy friend’s property while searching for a permanent British home, with Meghan said to want nine bedrooms and studio space and Harry prioritizing privacy and extensive grounds. Friends describe the move as “Finding Freedom 2” and say Archie and Lilibet’s education and a more outdoors-focused childhood are central to the decision. But reports also claim Harry still expects an apology from the Royal Family and remains angry about the same issues that fueled Megxit. Plus, Meghan could make an early UK appearance at a Princess Diana event, while neighbors in Montecito offer a less-than-sentimental farewell to the Sussexes’ California chapter.
