Was Rose Hanbury at the 2025 Trooping the Colour? Here's What We Know
The usual guests were in attendance at the Trooping the Colour ceremony this year: the Wales family, King Charles III, Queen Camilla, and more. But a lot of fans were wondering, will Kate's buddy Rose Hanbury be in attendance? Turns out, she was nowhere to be seen at the event, and has seemingly never gone to Trooping the Colour.
Rose has gone to numerous royal events over the years, including Charles' Coronation, Prince Philip's memorial, and the late Queen Elizabeth II's funeral. (In fact, her son Lord Oliver even played a major role at the Coronation.) But Trooping the Colour? Nothing.

Now, Trooping the Colour is an annual, ceremonial military parade to mark the official birthday of the British monarch. Rose is quite close with the royal family, so it's a bit of a shocker that she wasn't there.
However, eagle-eyed fans did notice that she may have thrown a party ahead of the big day, so she wasn't entirely free.
Rose resides at the Houghton Hall manor in Norfolk, where she runs the Instagram account. Yesterday, the account posted a photo saying, '@houghton_walled_garden at its peak right now 💜.'
Someone commented, saying, 'And we Have The big event tonight!¡!😍.' which the Hall account liked. So, what was this event?
It was the Walled Garden at Dusk event, where patrons can drink and walk around the award-winning five-acre walled garden at Houghton Hall, which is one of their bestselling events.
While it had nothing to do with Trooping the Colour, it did show fans that Rose has her hands full.
For those who don't know, Kate and Rose have been considered best friends for years. There was a time when they weren't often together, leading many to believe there was a falling out and thus, those affair rumors started. (Keep in mind that the Rose and Prince William affair rumors were proven false time and time again, so none of that!)
However, after Rose reportedly reached out to Kate amid her health problems, it seems the two reconnected. Plus, there was that time in 2023 when Kate was seen at Houghton Hall for an event. Along with that, Rose is close with Queen Camilla, so there seems to be no animosity to be found!Best of SheKnows

Read On The Fox News App "Off the pitch, I have been fortunate to have the opportunity to represent Britain around the world and work with incredible organisations that are supporting communities in need and inspiring the next generation," Beckham added. "I'm so lucky to be able to do the work that I do and I'm grateful to be recognised for the work that gives me so much fulfillment," he concluded. "It will take a little while for the news to sink in but I'm immensely proud and it's such an emotional moment for me to share with my family."

Prince Harry, Meghan Markle Raise Eyebrows With New 'Beyond Belief' Move
Prince Harry and his wife, the former Meghan Markle, have drawn a lot of attention since moving to the United States, not all of it positive. There was her Netflix lifestyle show, their joint Oprah interview, the podcasts, the social media posts, and a couple of documentaries. However, their latest move has stunned some observers. It's the Duke and Duchess of Sussex's decision to hire Emily Robinson as their Director of Communications that is raising eyebrows. One source told the UK's Express the move is "almost beyond belief." But why? Because Robinson was involved in doing PR for the Netflix show The Crown for several seasons, Express reported. The Crown is a fictionalized series on the Royal Family, warts and all. There are debates over how authentic it is, but it chronicles everything from Queen Elizabeth II's early years to Prince Charles' relationship with Camilla and Princess Diana's struggles and death. There are inaccuracies in the show. 'Nothing other than damaging and malicious fiction,' former Prime Minister John Major said of the series, according to The Standard. Prince Harry has discussed the show before on an appearance with Stephen Colbert. "The older stuff and the more recent stuff. Yes, I do actually fact check it. Which, by the way, is another reason why it's so important that history has it right," he said to Colbert. "They don't pretend to be news – it's fictional, but it's loosely based on the truth. It gives you a rough idea about what the pressures of putting duty and service above family and everything else – what can come from that." He added: "I'm way more comfortable with The Crown than I am seeing the stories written about my family or my wife or myself." However, a source told Daily Beast that Prince William has a different take. 'It's incredibly hurtful to have his mother exploited over and over again in this tawdry fashion by Netflix," the source told Daily Beast. "He won't watch it, but he will be totally sickened by it. The Standard reported that some experts believe King Charles wasn't happy when a season of the show aired near his mother's death. In 2021, Charles told Scottish parliament, "Hello, nice to meet you all. I'm nowhere near how they portray me on Netflix," The Standard reported.
