The news comes shortly after it was announced Camilla, Duchess of Cornwall, would be taking over as the patron of the National Theatre - a role previously held by Meghan Markle, Duchess of Sussex. According to Omid Scobie, journalist and co-author of Finding Freedom, Prince Harry is aware that Kate taking over is "just the name of the game." He explains: "Harry is very aware that that's just the name of the game.
It was rumoured very early on that Kate would be taking on the rugby patronages. She's an authentic fan of the sport so I don't think there'll be any disappointment there but it's no doubt a bittersweet moment when things that Harry was very passionate about are ending up in the hands of others." However, Omid says Harry will be disappointed with losing his military honours.
Prince Harry is taking legal action.
Prince Harry, Meghan Markle and Princess Eugenie received a “life-changing” phone call during a secret night out together, according to royal authors Omid Scobie and Carolyn Durand. At the time, Harry, 37, and Meghan, 40, were dating in secret and the Duke of Sussex’s cousin Princess Eugenie was one of the very few people in the know.The 31 year old royal regularly visited Toronto, Canada for work where the Duchess of Sussex was living at the time, and so there were a few occasions the trio met up incognito during their first four months.
Prince William and Kate Middleton have been under a lot of pressure since Covid struck the royal family, and after Prince Harry and Meghan Markle quit their royal duties last year. But this halfterm has presented the couple with a much-needed chance to relax – and OK! can reveal how they'll be taking the chance to relax amid their "physically and mentally demanding" schedules. Jennie Bond has told OK! that this break is exactly what Kate, 40, and William, 39, need, explaining: "People always say royal life is an incredible privilege but it’s also very demanding mentally, physically and emotionally.
Prince Harry and Prince William’s brotherly relationship has suffered since the Sussexes moved to America. But according to a royal expert, it seems the siblings are willing to "thrash it out" at an upcoming reunion.The Queen’s Platinum Jubilee year has put pressure on Harry to make amends with both William and dad Charles – but will it happen? Katie Nicholl told the Birmingham Mail: “Harry will want to be a part of the celebratory weekend, and will almost certainly be required to appear with William at that time.
Prince Harry’s bombshell memoir has been hanging over the Royal Family for almost a year. But the time has almost come for the anxiety-inducing pages to reach bookshelves around the world.The Duke of Sussex’s £14.7million memoir will be released this year and his friends told the Mirror he’s holding nothing back: “If they think he's gone soft, they are mistaken. Just wait for the book to come out because that will shake the monarchy to the core.” Harry’s publishers, Penguin Random House, describe the explosive read as ‘the definitive account of the experiences, adventures, losses, and life lessons that have helped shape him’.
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are "still learning what was said behind their backs" before they stepped down as senior members of the Royal family, Omid Scobie claims. Harry, 37, and Meghan, 40, announced they were stepping down in March 2020, with their royal patronages now being reassigned throughout the family, starting with Harry's England Rugby titles going to his sister-in-law Kate Middleton.
As every parent knows, finding time to even do some simple self care like brushing teeth is challenge enough. Now Prince Harry has talked about how he understands the time squeeze, but he prioritises his mental health in the small window of time available to him when his youngest Lilibet is napping and Archie has gone to school.
A royal expert has claimed that Prince Harry is currently 'laying low' in a bid to avoid causing 'any more upset'. The Duke of Sussex, 38, has opened up about life as a royal on several occasions over the past year, after stepping down from his position as a senior member of The Firm in January 2020. Prince Harry and Meghan's infamous tell-all interview with Oprah Winfrey sent shockwaves through the royal family, and Harry has also taken part in several podcasts following the interview.
Years ago, Kate Middleton and Prince Harry’s patronages were once split rather evenly. However, that was before the Duke of Sussex made his decision to step away from his role in the royal family—and now, Duchess Kate is taking over one of the royal patronages Harry lost.
