Stepping away from royal life gave Prince Harry and Meghan Markle freedom, but it also came with trade-offs.

Once positioned at the centre of global influence, the Sussexes now navigate a world of brand deals, media projects, and public appearances, a shift that hasn’t set well with the critics.

While they’ve embraced opportunities outside the monarchy, experts argue that what they’ve gained in visibility comes at the cost of the authority and impact they once held.

Royal commentator Reilly Sullivan didn't mince words about the Sussexes’ post-royal pursuits.

Queen Camilla and Kate Middleton appeared cheerful, grounded, and relaxed in front of the cameras while welcoming Donald and Melania Trump for their second state visit last week.

However, behind-the-scenes footage told a different story, as Camilla was seen ‘pulling rank’ and shooing Middleton away while chatting with the First Lady.

The video captured the Queen Consort waving her hand and gesturing to the Princess of Wales to move along and join her husband, raising suspicions of possible tension between the royal ladies.

King Charles went the extra mile to welcome Donald Trump to Windsor Castle for their second state visit.

The pomp and circumstance at the state banquet on September 17 was nothing short of a royal fantasy, featuring a four-course menu, elegant cocktail receptions, and post-dinner spirits.

Yet, behind the glittering facade, orchestrating such a grandiose affair came with its challenges.

After reports of an alleged tiff between Charles and Trump’s aides surfaced, Buckingham Palace issued a statement, dismissing the claims as ‘categorically untrue.’
