Queen Camilla praises literary prize for championing women authors
Queen Camilla praises literary prize for championing women authors Camilla made a surprise appearance at an open-air event (Image: Anadolu, Anadolu Agency via Getty Images ) The Queen has hailed a leading fiction competition for bringing female voices from the "margins" to the "very centre" of the literary world. Camilla made a surprise appearance at an open-air event celebrating the 30th anniversary of the Women's Prize for Fiction and met the shortlisted authors for this year's award. Writer Kate Mosse, co-founder of the prize, described Camilla as a "genuine reader" who has supported the project, and said about the royal appearance: "If you're going to lay on the Queen, if it's not Beyonce, it's got to be the actual Queen." The Queen stopped broadcaster Louise Minchin, who was hosting a discussion, to address the audience in Bedford Square gardens in central London, and told guests that 1995, when the prize was launched, was a significant year for women. While women were winning a Nobel Prize and piloting a space shuttle for the first time in 1995, she said things were "bleaker" in the literary world with only 9% of female authors shortlisted for major prizes despite writing 60% of novels. Camilla said Mosse led the founding of the Women's Prize for Fiction as "they believed that women's stories should be truly heard, understood and honoured; and that it was time to disprove Virginia Woolf's famous statement that ' often a woman'". Article continues below She added: "They did this by establishing the Women's Prize for Fiction and its instantly recognisable statuette, 'The Bessie'. This simple, but radical, step brought the female voice from the margins of the literary world to its very centre." Camilla chatted to the six shortlisted authors – Aria Aber, Sanam Mahloudji, Elizabeth Strout, Nussaibah Younis, Miranda July and Yael van der Wouden. Younis joked with the Queen and made the group laugh when she said: "We're trying to take each other out, the champagne glasses are spiked, there could be one left standing." After speaking to Camilla, she said about her fellow shortlisted writers: "I have read all of the books and I'm blown away. They're funny and so sexy and very erotic." The Queen was then introduced to the six shortlisted authors for the Women's Prize for Non-Fiction, including singer-songwriter and rapper Neneh Cherry, whose debut book, A Thousand Threads tells the story of her career. "I wrote a memoir, a book about my life," she told Camilla. "It took more than four years to write it and I'm still slightly recovering. It's out there now, I have let it go, it's out in the world." The Queen told Claire Mulley, whose Agent Zo tells the story of the Polish wartime resistance fighter Elzbieta Zawacka: "I think I will put that on my holiday reading list." And she delighted author Chloe Dalton by telling her she had read her memoir Raising Hare about swapping the rat race for a rural life.

Simon Cowell shares rare insight into family life as he admits 'I'm very worried'
Simon Cowell shares rare insight into family life as he admits 'I'm very worried' Simon Cowell has opened up on his relationship with his son Eric and admitted he's 'very worried' about the 11-year-old as he gets older and has access to more things Simon Cowell has opened up on his relationship with his son Eric Simon Cowell has confessed his concerns as he delved into the details of his bond with his son Eric. In anticipation of Father's Day, the Britain's Got Talent judge engaged in a candid conversation with Jeff Brazier about fatherhood during Thursday's (June 12) edition of This Morning. Simon and his partner Lauren Silverman celebrated the arrival of their son Eric back in February 2014. In the pre-recorded segment, the entertainment industry titan opened up about the significance of fatherhood and how it has positively transformed his life. "Honestly, [it means] everything. Out of everything I've ever done in my life, this is the best thing to ever happen to me. The very first time I saw his scan, I was literally obsessed," Simon expressed, reports Belfast Live. The BGT judge told This Morning's Jeff Brazier he's "very worried" about Eric as he gets older and has access to more things Article continues below He continued: "It kind of gives you a purpose I think. I enjoyed my life, I enjoyed my work. I was getting to a point where I was getting bored. Once you become a parent, then it's like everything is for them. I actually really, really enjoy his company. "So like, every night we read together before he goes to bed. I can wind him up if I want to because he's so easy, like Lauren, to wind up. "I just make stupid stuff up and he's like, 'That's not real' and it's like, 'No, it really is real' and he kind of half knows but he's still wound up but he's got a good sense of humour. He's a good kid." Addressing the challenges that come with parenting, Simon remarked: "We're getting to a point where the word phone comes up, 'Oh god, here we go.'". "I'm very worried Jeff, about how much kids can see at a certain age. I grew up... which was learning things at the right time, the right age, etcetera etcetera. I just would be petrified of him having access to anything, that would really worry me." Simon and his partner Lauren Silverman celebrated the arrival of their son Eric back in February 2014 (Image: Getty Images ) He went on to say: "I think schools put too much pressure on kids, which is, you're getting up at seven in the morning, you're coming home say at five, six in the afternoon, evening and then you've got to do two hours of homework. "It's like, they're ten, eleven, twelve years old. It's too much. I would say to any teacher watching, ban homework, you'll have happier kids and they'll do better." Reminiscing about his own upbringing and having named Eric after his late father, who died in 1999, Simon said: "My mum used to say, manners maketh the man and my dad was very good about respecting other people and I'm trying to do the same thing with him. "Which is, don't make it over complicated you know, find your path, be happy, be respectful to other people." Looking towards the future, Simon expressed his hope that Eric would look back warmly on his childhood spent with his parents. The BGT judge would love for his 11 year old son to declare that his childhood was "the best thing" that made him "happier" than anything else that has ever happened in his life.

The study revealed that over half of the adults surveyed played outdoor games daily during their school years. Other beloved playground pastimes included football cards, yo-yos, 'Cat's Cradle' and hopscotch. Most adults felt these activities were instrumental in forming friendships when they were younger, with nearly three-quarters saying these interactions are some of their most cherished childhood memories. Gillian McMahon, executive director of international charity Right To Play, commented: "Play is a deep-rooted part of childhood in the UK; however, millions of children globally are unable to claim this basic right." Right to Play is dedicated to transforming the lives of millions of children annually through play. Gillian added: "Extreme challenges such as conflict, poverty, child labour and early marriage are depriving many vulnerable children of the childhood they deserve."

However, a significant majority of 67% agree that every child should have the right to play, recognising its benefits, including physical exercise, forming friendships, and developing essential social skills like empathy and cooperation. Gillian McMahon emphasised: "Many children are denied the chance to just be kids. We are working to change this situation. "Through our global programmes, we are reaching more than 4.7 million vulnerable children each year in some of the most difficult places on earth.
