Royal Special - Prince & Princess of Wales: A Modern Royal Family

going to see the “Barbie” movie with a group of girlfriends, there seemed to be something missing from the day: a public birthday shoutout from her in-laws.However, one royal expert believes there’s a reason why the royal family stayed radio silent on Markle’s special day, and that’s because they may have run the risk of looking “fake.”“I just think that they probably felt it looked a bit fake, given the whole world knows they’re not really speaking much at the moment,” royal historian Tessa Dunlop recently told UK’s OK! Magazine.“I think it would have looked a bit disingenuous, probably to slap photos up there with really no noticeable communication going on behind the scenes,” she continued.Dunlop also added that she thinks there’s been a “firmer line drawn in the sand” between the Sussexes and the royal family, especially off the heels of Prince Harry’s bombshell January tell-all memoir, “Spare,” and their December Netflix docu-series, “Harry & Meghan.”In both of the projects, the couple made many allegations about the royal family — including Prince Harry’s claim in “Spare” that his brother, Prince William, 41, physically “attacked” him during a spat over Markle before they stepped down from their roles as senior royals in 2020. Markle also told her alleged side of the story to Oprah in a sit-down interview, which aired in March 2021.

Continuing down her road of recovery after undergoing surgery for breast cancer, Sarah, Duchess of York frequently opens up about her young grandchildren on her podcast 'Tea Talks with the Duchess & Sarah'. During her most recent instalment, Sarah revealed that her one-year-old granddaughter Sienna was staying with her while Princess Beatrice and Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi were on holiday.

Meghan Markle celebrated her birthday this month but wishes from the Royal Family were noticeably absent through fear of being "fake", according to a royal expert.The Duchess of Sussex turned 42 on Friday, 4 August and was flooded with birthday messages from adoring fans on social media, but there was a noticeable silence from senior members of the Royal Family who didn't join in on the well wishes. Last year, the official Twitter accounts for the Royal Family, including the now Prince and Princess of Wales along with King Charles and Queen Camilla publicly wished Meghan a happy birthday.

One of the key skills that will be drummed into young royals from the earliest opportunity will be the importance of having good manners which will best prepare them for a lifetime of public service. In doing this, it would seem Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis have been taught a sweet habit that their late grandmother Diana, Princess of Wales, encouraged her own children to do.

There have been many attempts to compare Meghan Markle to the late Princess Diana since her relationship with Prince Harry became public.

The Royal Family’s time at the Balmoral Estate will undoubtedly be filled with physical pursuits such as long country walks, deer stalking and horse riding, with quieter moments punctuated by picnics, barbeques and fly-fishing in the River Dee.

Balmoral in the Scottish Highlands is always a magnet for the royals each August as the extended family gather for their annual staycation. But this year’s get-together will be tinged with sadness - not only is it the first year without the late Queen Elizabeth II hosting, but it’s where she passed away, just 11 months ago, on September 8.

Princess Beatrice and Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi announced their engagement in September 2019 and the couple married in a private ceremony at The Royal Chapel of All Saints in Windsor Great Park on July 17, 2020.The only members of the family who attended the wedding were the late Queen Elizabeth and Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh, the Duke and Duchess of York, Princess Eugenie, Jack Brooksbank and Edo's son, Christopher Woolf Mapelli Mozzi (better known by his nickname 'Wolfie'). While the day was intimate when compared to the huge affairs other members of the family have enjoyed, Princess Beatrice made sure that there was a series of sweet family connections included.

The Order of Succession is something that cannot be altered by personal preference. While the British royals understand this, it would seem that one foreign country had not grasped this as they made a rather strange offer to the Duke of Edinburgh in 1994. Huge socio-political change in the country at the time prompted them to ask the late Queen's youngest son, Prince Edward, to serve as their head of state.The unusual offer was called "charming" but had to be sensibly declined by Buckingham Palace.

The Prince and Princess of Wales saw a great deal of change in many aspects of their lives last year. One significant shift came in September when the couple relocated to Adelaide Cottage on the Windsor Estate with Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis.
