Meghan Markle's Staff Feared Her for a Reason, Says Royal Expert
Meghan Markle's staff thought her 'capacity for revenge' was 'infinite,' says expert
Meghan Markle's staff was reportedly afraid of the Duchess of Sussex. Veteran royal correspondent Valentine Low recently told the Daily Mail that the royal workers were in a 'fragile state' at the time. The expert is known for publishing a bullying story in 2021 before Prince Harry and Markle appeared in the infamous Oprah Winfrey interview.
Referring to his story coverage, Low mentioned to the tabloid that the royal staff was frightened of Markle even after the couple moved to the US. 'They were very worried about what Meghan would do to them. They viewed her capacity for revenge as infinite,' the veteran journalist said. He added that the Duke and Duchess of Sussex were 'difficult to work for then,' so they would be 'difficult to work for now.'
Last month, Low appeared in an episode of 'Kinsey Schofield Unfiltered' and talked about his bullying allegation reports. He revealed that Prince Harry and Meghan Markle reportedly tried to discredit the allegations and stop the story from coming out. As per the correspondent, he received two letters from the couple's lawyers.
'It was very very feisty, very strong, saying basically 'watch out,'' he referred to the second letter. Apparently, after Low's article was published, he didn't hear from the lawyers. The royal expert insisted on releasing his story before the Oprah interview. He said that it would have seemed like 'sour grapes' if the article had been published after.
Meanwhile, reports of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle returning to their royal duties have been doing the rounds. It is said that King Charles and his second son seemingly want to bury the hatchet and reunite.

Woman receives criminal conviction for uninsured motorbike when hospitalised with mental health crisis
A woman has been convicted in Britain's fast-track courts for not insuring her motorbike when she was in hospital recovering from a mental health breakdown. The 30-year-old was in the care of mental health services when she was accused by the DVLA of failing to pay the bill on her bike. Facing prosecution last month, she wrote to the court to explain that she was 'not in a stable frame of mind' when the insurance was not renewed. But her letter was not enough to halt the prosecution, which was dealt with in the controversial Single Justice Procedure. 'When the offence occurred in January 2025, I was struggling with my mental health', she wrote, setting out her admission to a specialist hospital for people in crisis. 'I have been treated by the community mental health team since my discharge from hospital, and have a care coordinator who will provide a letter to confirm this is necessary. 'I have not yet returned to work due to ill health and am in receipt of PIP for my diagnosis of depression and anxiety and take daily medication for this. 'When this offence took place, I was not in a stable frame of mind, hence the stay in hospital for treatment for my mental health. 'I was struggling to keep myself safe and did not have the capacity to deal with any life administration, not did I have access to any letters from the DVLA.' According to court papers, the motorbike was flagged as uninsured on January 21, the same month the woman says she was admitted to hospital. She added in her letter she declared the vehicle 'off road' in March 2025 'when I began to work towards recovery'. The DVLA decided to prosecute on July 10, and the case was dealt with at Reading magistrates court two weeks later. The magistrate, sitting in private, imposed a six-month conditional discharge and ordered that she pay a £26 victim surcharge. The woman, from Hull, was spared further financial penalties, but does now have a criminal conviction against her name. The Single Justice Procedure was invented in 2015 as a fast-track way of dealing with low-level criminal offences. Magistrates sit in private and deal with cases based on written evidence only. But the design of the court system means letters of mitigation from defendants – sometimes containing important details about the circumstances of an offence being committed – are not routinely seen by prosecutors. The DVLA, which routinely prosecutes tens of thousands of motorists each month in the Single Justice Procedure, has called on the government to overhaul the system. The agency believes prosecutors – such as itself – should see all mitigation letters before a case goes before a magistrate, so they can decide if the case remains in the public interest. The government conducted a consultation on possible changes, ending in May, but has yet to take any action. The Standard, which has exposed multiple flaws in the way the fast-track courts operate, is committed to regularly highlighting the harsh convictions that are imposed, on frail pensioners, grieving families, and people who are severely mentally unwell.

Venice's Newest Luxury Hotel, Orient Express Palazzo Donà Giovannelli, Debuts April 2026
Orient Express Palazzo Donà Giovannelli Orient Express For well-heeled Italophiles, the good news is that bookings have opened for Orient Express Palazzo Donà Giovannelli in Venice, which is welcoming guests from April 2026 onward. Located in a 15th-century Venetian palazzo that reflects both Neogothic and Baroque architectural styles, the hotel has 47 guestrooms, suites, and apartments. Orient Express is a partnership between Accor and LVMH, the world's most prestigious luxury company (and not to be confused with Belmond, the company behind the Venice Simplon-Orient-Express and other trains and luxury hotels). 'More than a hotel, Orient Express Palazzo Donà Giovannelli is a transformative voyage through centuries of splendor.' This follows two other Orient Express and Accor debuts in 2025: the unveiling of their first hotel, Orient Express La Minerva in Rome, and the rollout of La Dolce Vita Orient Express luxury train, which I recently wrote about here in Forbes. Orient Express Palazzo Donà Giovannelli is situated in Cannaregio. This island still feels like the Venice of half a century ago, a quiet place that's still the lair of residents and thankfully removed from the daily circus of San Marco. Located at the confluence of two canals, the palazzo was a noble residence built in 1436 during the reign of architect Filippo Calendario, the visionary behind the Doge's Palace. Formerly the private residence of the Dona and Giovannelli families,who were great patrons of the arts, it was later gifted to the Duke of Urbino. The Palazzo Dona has a legacy of grandeur and celebration, not to mention gilded ballrooms and hidden passageways. Details of the facade of the Orient Express Palazzo Donà Giovannelli Orient Express This extraordinary building was restored under the guidance of architect and interior designer Aline Asmar d'Amman. It's a theatrical space, with period frescoes and mosaic floors. The architecture speaks to Venice as a crossroads of civilizations, blending the Neogothic and the Baroque, and the façade has seven remarkable hand-carved Gothic windows. 'More than a hotel, Orient Express Palazzo Donà Giovannelli is a transformative voyage through centuries of splendor,' Gilda Perez-Alvarado, Orient Express CEO, said in a press statement. 'Rooted in the poetic vision of Orient Express, this Venetian property embodies a heritage in motion where every stay becomes a passage through memory, art, and emotion.' A stay at the hotel begins with a dramatic journey. Guests arrive by private boat, arriving through a 15th-century Gothic portal on the canal, pass through a discreet doorway into Santa Fosca's secret garden, or step off the Strada Nova into the courtyard. The octagonal staircase at the Orient Express Palazzo Donà Giovannelli Orient Express The theatrical lobby has a high wooden ceiling and is filled with light. There's a striking octagonal staircase, a 19th-century addition by Giovanni Battista Meduna, the architect behind Venice's Ca'd'Oro and the original La Fenice theatre. A celestial stone and glass vault crowns it. At the Piano Nobile, you'll find a series of storied rooms, including the Baroque-style Vittoria Ballroom, created for the 1548 wedding of Princess Vittoria Farnese. The Library of Cultures is decorated with lapis lazuli pigments and gilded wood, while the Music Room is redolent of Venice's golden age. There are 47 luxurious rooms, featuring 29 rooms and 16 suites, including six Signature Suites, and two Orient Express Apartments. The six Signature Suites are located on the Piano Nobile and the first floor. At the same time, the first-ever Orient Express Apartments are housed in an adjacent building and offer outstanding canal views. The hotel's culinary offerings will include an intimate fine dining restaurant with private boat access, an all-day dining space overlooking the courtyard and lush garden – a rarity in Venice – and the iconic Wagon Bar, a nod to the golden age of rail travel. There's more to come for Orient Express. They have two sailing yachts that will launch in 2026 and 2027. They also plan to bring back the original Orient Express train, which will travel across various routes in Europe.

Farming content creator aims to showcase industry
A social media producer nominated for a national agricultural award said she wanted to "show people what you can do" in farming. Annie Winn from Harlestone in Northamptonshire is up for Content Creator of the Year at the British Farming Awards. She set up her her own company after working in the agriculture industry for 10 years. Ms Winn said she wanted to "raise awareness and to get more people on board with agriculture". Earlier this week the BBC heard from farmers and those in the industry across England as part of Farmwatch 2025. Although Ms Winn descibes herself as a "country bumpkin" she said she did not have a background in farming. "I actually fell into agriculture by just winging a job one day," she told BBC Radio Northampton's Liz Jeeves. After working as a certification officer for the Red Tractor accreditation scheme, she then moved on to an agricultural charity, the Addington Fund, working in marketing. She said: "I realised, 'oh blimey, I really love this job' and then from there I went into social media self-employed with my own business." 'Busy all day every day' For the last year and a half she said her business has been "flying" with a number of agricultural clients. She said: "It's creating the content, it's checking in with them, what have they got coming up whether it's in the next week or the next six months. "I create those posts for them, the copies, the graphics, the editing, the videos, the whole lot, schedule it all out and then just keep on top of their accounts." Ms Winn said she also accompanies clients to agricultural shows and events. "It honestly keeps me busy all day every day, I haven't stopped," she said. Ms Winn said she was "creating content showing people what you can do within the industry... to support" farming. Follow Northamptonshire news on BBC Sounds, Facebook, Instagram and X.
