‘Royal migraine': New book to release which is ‘causing a stir'
'Instead of compare the pair, it is compare the Spare's,' Ms Di Russo said.
'Even before its release, Andrew Lownie's upcoming book 'Entitled, The Rise and Fall the House of York' is already causing a stir, or perhaps, more accurately, a right royal migraine.'

‘I don't think it's fair to criticise them': Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie ‘told to get jobs'
Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie have reportedly garnered sympathy in their social circles amid fresh criticism of their parents Prince Andrew and Sarah Ferguson in a bombshell new book. Veteran royal biographer Andrew Lownie is the author of the new book Entitled: The Rise and Fall of the House of York, a warts-and-all account of the Yorks' marriage and three decade partnership. The book includes embarrassing revelations about the Duke of York's sex life, as well as unprecedented new information about his business dealings while working as a British trade envoy. In the book, Mr Lownie outlines how the Duke of York even shoehorned his daughters into official trips and business deals in the Middle East. Those connections allegedly came in handy when Beatrice and Eugenie launched their own professional careers, with both sisters making frequent trips to the oil-rich gulf states for appearances and partnerships. As non-working royals, Beatrice and Eugenie are entitled to earn their own living like their cousins Prince Harry, Zara Tindall and Peter Phillips. Beatrice, 37, has set up an AI business in the tech sector while Eugenie, 35, is a director at art gallery Hauser and Wirth. According to sources close to the sisters, the new book has garnered sympathy for the Princesses, who are seen as 'collateral' damage amid their parents' scandals. 'All they have ever done is stand by their parents in the most horrific public circumstances,' a source close to the Princesses told The Daily Beast's Tom Sykes. 'I don't think it's fair to criticise them for (their parents). 'They're sweet girls who understand that they are immensely privileged, and have always been grateful for the privilege they've had, and have tried to use it to do the right thing.' The source also defended the Princesses for earning their own money and pointed out the monarchy does not financially support either Beatrice or Eugenie. 'They were told to get jobs by the firm and they did that, so it seems unfair to attack them for making money,' the source said. While the York sisters are not full-time royals, it is understood the sisters both have grace-and-favour apartments inside the royal palaces, with costs met by their uncle King Charles.

Chris Hemsworth's diagnosis changed his outlook
Chris Hemsworth's perspective on life changed when he learned he had a greater chance of developing Alzheimer's disease. The 41-year-old actor previously learned that he is, biologically, eight to ten times more likely than other people to develop Alzheimer's, as he carries two copies of the APOE4 gene, and Hemsworth admits that the revelation has changed his life. Hemsworth - who made the discovery while filming the TV show Limitless: Live Better Now - told Sky News: "It was just kind of this point in my life where up until your 40s, you're kind of gathering data and information and it's all reactionary and then you get to a point where you think, 'oh some of this sort of identity that I've sort of built doesn't hold true anymore'. "There's some inner sort of protest or inner voice that has a deeper need to understand and there's deeper questions and what is the purpose and the why behind what I'm doing ... and what am I seeking, what am I contributing, as opposed to just what I am collecting." Meanwhile, Hemsworth previously admitted that his busy work schedule has taken a toll on him. The actor starred in a host of big-budget films, including eight Marvel blockbusters, in just over 12 years, and Hemsworth admitted that he struggled to cope with the demands. He told Vanity Fair: "I'd been trying to muscle and beat things into existence for so long, out of obsession and desperation to build this career, and I was just exhausted. I was worried about everything. Nothing was as enjoyable as it once was, or I had imagined it was. "I was making back-to-back movies and doing the press tours, and I was married and had three young kids, and it was all happening at the same time in a very short window. "You're sort of just running on fumes, and then you're showing up to something with little in the tank and you start to pick things apart: 'Why am I doing this film?' 'Why isn't this script better?' 'Why didn't that director call me for that,' or, 'Why didn't I get considered for this role?' 'Why don't I get the call-up from Scorsese or Tarantino?' "I had begun to take it all too serious and too personal." Chris Hemsworth's perspective on life changed when he learned he had a greater chance of developing Alzheimer's disease.
