King Charles may be forced to miss the funeral of his close friend and second cousin, King Harald V of Norway, despite their deep family ties. With Harald’s funeral set to take place in Oslo on September 9, the possibility of Charles’ absence has raised questions over whether his duties or other commitments are preventing him from attending the solemn royal farewell. 

Another senior royal could potentially step in to represent the British royal family, ensuring the UK is formally represented as monarchs and dignitaries from across the world gather to honor Harald’s life and legacy.

After stepping down from royal duties, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle turned their attention to Hollywood, producing five documentary series for Netflix through Archewell Productions over six years. While With Love, Meghan recently earned a Daytime Emmy nomination, the Sussexes’ Hollywood ambitions have faced their share of setbacks. 

Now, with the couple back in the UK, reports suggest Meghan could be looking to take things a step further by hosting a full film production from their own backyard. The royals may be watching closely as the Sussexes reportedly search for a private Cotswolds property with enough space for filming.📽️

Queen Camilla followed in Queen Elizabeth’s footsteps as she takes centre stage at the Royal Academy of Dance. During her latest engagement, Camilla highlighted the academy’s charitable work and presented the 2026 Queen Elizabeth Coronation Award to acclaimed choreographer Christopher Wheeldon. 

Her appearance comes as she and King Charles prepare for their upcoming autumn tour of the Bahamas, Guyana, and Antigua and Barbuda, underscoring Camilla’s growing role in carrying forward the late Queen’s legacy. 🩰

The poll results show that royal watchers largely oppose Prince Harry joining King Charles and Prince William for the Remembrance Day parade, with concerns extending beyond the family rift. The biggest group, 36.51%, said he should not attend because it could overshadow the occasion, while 25.39% felt too much damage has been done. Another 24.2% believe Harry should attend because he is a veteran and will be in the UK, while 13.88% said it should happen only if Charles and William want him there.

The comments reflected strong feelings on both sides. One reader argued that Harry “should go” but remember that the day “is not about him,” while another said he “should be honored” for his military service. Others worried his presence would shift attention away from veterans, with one saying, “It would make it all about Harry.” Overall, readers appear to respect Harry’s military service, but many feel the Remembrance Day ceremony should remain separate from the unresolved royal family tensions.

Queen Camilla surprised a packed Royal Festival Hall audience with an unexpected appearance at Letters Live, where she took to the stage to read a touching letter written by Queen Elizabeth the Queen Mother to poet Edith Sitwell. 

The 1952 letter revealed how poetry comforted the Queen Mother as she mourned the loss of her husband, King George VI. Camilla’s appearance was kept secret until she walked onto the stage, leaving the audience stunned. ✉️ 

Before he became known for his royal life and military career, Prince Harry spent part of his gap year in Lesotho in 2004, where he worked with children affected by poverty and HIV/AIDS. 

The experience inspired him to co-found Sentebale with Lesotho’s Prince Seeiso in 2006. Even the charity’s name is meaningful: Sentebale means “forget-me-not” in Sesotho, referring to their mothers and the children they wanted the world to remember. 👶🏻
