Meghan has no right to lecture the royals about truth, said Samara

Royal author and broadcaster Hugo Vickers and news commentator Samara Gill spoke to our royal editor Matt Wilkinson this week about Meghan's comments.
On The Sun's Royal exclusive show, Matt noted how he was stunned at Meghan's latest podcast interview where she asked people to "tell the truth about her".
Samara said: "The fact is she is a constant liar and her whole brand is built on a spin of lies."
"I don't trust a word that woman says. I think it is very, very low for her to insinuate that we should listen to her truth or that the royal family should tell the truth.
"The lack of authenticity in that interview is palpable."
Samara added that perhaps the "revolving door of staff" the Sussexes have employed may shed more light on "truth".
Countless staff members have joined a long list of people who over the years no longer wish to associate with the mum-of-two.
Samara also referenced bullying allegations levelled at her from staff during her time at Kensington Palace.
The royal expert added: "I don't want to listen to this woman about truth.
"The fact of the matter is that she is a constant liar."
On the podcast, Meghan revealed that she wanted people to "tell the truth" about her, when asked "if you you could rewrite your public narrative from scratch, is there anything you would do differently?"
The Duchess went on to share advice that she had received from Serana Williams regarding how she was viewed in the public after falling love with Prince Harry.
Why Harry will not be happy after hypocrite Meghan published intimate moments online, expert reveals
"My dear friend Serena, she told me years ago: 'A lie can't live forever,'" said Meghan.
But Hugo, agreed with Samara on the issue and questioned how accurate Meghan's accusatory comments actually were.
He said: "I think Samara and I, as well as others, do tell the truth about her and I don't think she likes it very much."
The royal expert added: "No one would actually listen to Meghan Markle if it wasn't for the fact she married Prince Harry.
"It's because she's married to Harry it gives the soap opera quality that seems to appeal to everyone.
"Otherwise would not really care about her, a lot of other people are doing stuff similar to her on social media anyway."
It comes after the Duchess broke her silence on her cringey twerking video after it sparked wild conspiracy theories.
The Duchess of Sussex, 43, posted the footage earlier this month showing her and Prince Harry dancing in a hospital room as she tried to induce daughter Lilibet's birth in 2021.
But conspiracy theorists bizarrely claimed that Meghan's bump was not real, suggesting she was wearing a prosthetic pregnant belly in the clip.
Now, almost a fortnight after sharing the 80-second video with her three million followers on Instagram, the ex-Suits actress has defended her decision to post the personal footage.

Trent Alexander-Arnold already showing signs of old class in Real Madrid shirt even if he's put a new name on the back

Here's why the ex-Liverpool star can be quietly pleased with his debut in the Miami heat TAA DAA Trent Alexander-Arnold already showing signs of old class in Real Madrid shirt even if he's put a new name on the back TRENT ALEXANDER-ARNOLD was caught up in a Club World Cup clash far more dramatic than anyone could have predicted as he made his Real Madrid debut. The ex-Liverpool right-back played the first 64 minutes of a 1-1 draw against Saudi big spenders Al-Hilal.

He saw Gonzalo Garcia slot a brilliant team goal to launch Xabi Alonso's reign as Real boss in majestic style. But former Wolves anchorman Ruben Neves soon levelled with a 41st-minute penalty after Raul Asencio pulled Marcos Leonardo's short. Al-Hilal were furious with a spot-kick award against Mohammed Al Qahtani when his arm went across Fran Garcia's face on the corner of the box in the 90th minute.

Meanwhile, TAA was not just in a new top, he had a new moniker on the back - simply "Trent". So was his first Real game just as straightforward?

With the searing afternoon temperatures in Miami edging closer to a sweltering 33 degrees, the tempo of the game was a long way off the standard intensity. 12 Trent Alexander-Arnold reveals he's been 'waiting a long time' to join Real Madrid For most of the first half, Alexander-Arnold, along with his new pals, tried to conserve energy when possible. Advertisement But it was his initial pass deep in his own half that started the move which ended with Gonzalo Garcia's 34th-minute opener. The England international pumped his fists into the air when the ball hit the back of the net. Early in the second half, he found himself on the edge of the box with the ball at his feet, but the killer pass just eluded him. He also appeared to operate slightly more centrally after the break as Real searched for a winner. Advertisement Defensively sound? The former Liverpool man was operating in an inverted wing-back role, which saw him largely tuck inside closer to the centre-back pairing of fellow new boy Dean Huijsen — making his Real debut following his move from Bournemouth — and Asencio. When the Spanish giants were in possession, TAA drifted into midfield and was on hand to try and penetrate a robust Al-Hilal backline. He made a couple of key interceptions as the first half wore on — including one which helped set up the opener — and looked defensively solid. 12 Alexander Arnold was straight into the thick of the action Credit: Alamy Advertisement 12 This graph shows how he never switched flanks 12 The Three Lions ace looked solid defensively Has he settled in already? Certainly looked that way. Having fellow England international Jude Bellingham — who was very quiet here — must help, as will his already noticeable Spanish skills, which will only improve as he fully integrates himself into the Madrid way of life. With Alonso also starting afresh in the Spanish capital, everyone, including Trent, is beginning with a clean slate. Advertisement Any surprises/anything new? Just having 'TRENT' on the back of his shirt was a new look for the 26-year-old. At Liverpool, and for England, the Scouser was the main man for free-kicks. But when one was given on 57 minutes, it was Turkish ace Arda Güler who stepped up—and subsequently failed to deliver. His race was run after 64 minutes, with Alonso keen to bring on fresh legs, but the sparks from his debut were promising enough. What did he say about it? "It's an incredible day for me to make my Real Madrid debut. It's something almost every player dreams of so to be able to achieve it is huge for me. Advertisement "Of course, there's some disappointment in there because we haven't won the game. It's the mentality you need to have as a Real Madrid player is to want and expect to win every game that you play in. "It's disappointing not to win. But there were a lot of positives, especially in the second half." On the support... "Incredible. I felt the support from the moment I signed for the club. It's absolutely sensational. The fanbase that is truly global all over the world. You feel it every single day, the fans at the training ground and the hotel and on social media. Advertisement "It's a huge thank you for that. We dominated the stands today, which was incredible. The support was truly amazing." On the game... "I think in the second half we kept the ball really well - that is what we lacked in the first half. "In this heat, it is important to keep hold of the ball as best as you can. We were in and around their box a lot. Advertisement "We put in crosses, got shots off but it just wasn't meant to be. We also had the penalty late on. These things do happen in football. "Nobody is to blame and we take the positives, and we have things we can work on. I am sure we will do that going into the next game." And on how long he's been learning Spanish... "Not too long. A couple of months. It was something important that I had to do. I want to adapt and give myself the best start possible going to a new country, new city and new team. Advertisement "It is important to show the intent that I want to embrace the culture, immerse myself in it and try to adapt as best as possible." 12 Alexander-Arnold looked at home in a clash that was also Real legend Xabi Alonso's first game back at the club as manager Credit: Getty 12 In contrast Bellingham was largely anonymous for the Spanish giants Credit: Getty 12

Abbey looked glamorous as she wore a cream dress that accentuated her svelte figure and slender curves. She wore some sunglasses covering her eyes and had her hair down and in a straight style. Meanwhile, Peter wore a beige-coloured suit complete with a white shirt and a dark tie. The couple seemingly ditched the finery, with Abbey not opting for a hat or fascinator, and Peter not wearing a top hat and tails. In some of the snaps of the couple enjoying their day out and soaking up the atmosphere, they looked more smitten than ever before. Abbey could be seen perching on her husband's knee as he lovingly gazed up at her. She then looked down at him and beamed, seemingly totally smitten with her man. The couple then stood up and cuddled one another before sharing a very public smooch on the balcony that they were standing on. Peter's hand hovered over Abbey's bottom in one snap, with him reaching down further as their kiss got more heated.

The high-profile couple have been together for nearly 20 years, and married for 14. Together they share four children: Sophia, Liberty, Johnny, and Jack. They host podcast The Therapy Crouch, where they get honest about married life and everything in between with their followers and listeners. In an interview with OK! back in March, Abbey spoke about her husband and their marriage. Swooning over her life with her hubby, Abbey also insisted she "doesn't need space" from him. However, on an episode of their podcast, Abbey jokingly mentioned how they both enjoy their own hobbies, and lived "seperate lives". "I don't think there's anything wrong with that [having their own hobbies and spending time apart]. "Like, not every day, because we need to do stuff together as well. "But I think some part of the week, I think that's a totally healthy relationship." Abbey interjected: "It is, because I've never been happier." 5 The couple were seen on a balcony at the event Credit: Getty
