How Meghan Markle really feels about Prince Harry's royal rift
Meghan Markle and Prince Harry have different perspectives about their rift with the royal family.
A source told People Thursday that while Markle is focused on the future and 'is very business' about the couple's fallout with Harry's relatives, Harry, 40, is stuck in the past.

The insider claimed that Markle wishes her husband would 'feel less burdened by the past' and focus on their life together.
Markle and Harry have been estranged from his family since they quit royal life in 2020 and moved to the US.

'They're aware of everything going on in England, but they're being left out of the details — there's clearly no trust,' the source told People about the couple.
The Post has reached out to Buckingham Palace and reps for the Sussexes for comment.
Harry has a particularly bad relationship with King Charles, 76, at the moment, after saying that his father 'won't speak' to him in his explosive BBC interview last month.

A palace insider recently told The Post that the cancer-stricken monarch 'simply doesn't trust Harry' because of the interview, which took place after Harry lost his appeal to maintain tax-payer funded security detail in the UK.
'There have been so many disagreements between myself and some of my family,' Harry said in the May 2 interview.

'Some members of my family will never forgive me for writing a book,' Harry further shared, referring to his 2023 memoir 'Spare,' adding, 'Of course, they will never forgive me for lots of things.'

The Duke of Sussex also declared that he 'can't see a world' where he'd bring Markle and their two children, Prince Archie, 6, and Princess Lilibet, 4, back to England because of the court's decision.
However, Harry still said that he 'would love' to reconcile with his family.
Harry is also feuding with his brother Prince William.

The siblings were both at their father's coronation when he officially ascended to the throne in May 2023, but they reportedly avoided one another.
Then, in August 2024, William, 42, and Harry were said to have 'kept their distance' once again while attending a memorial service in Norfolk for their late uncle, Robert Fellowes.
After Harry's bombshell BBC interview, a source told Us Weekly that William is 'done' with his brother.

'When he becomes king, everybody thinks the divide will become even wider,' the source added of the Prince of Wales.
Markle, for her part, has not spoken about the royal family drama in any of her latest projects, which include a Netflix lifestyle series and a new podcast.

‘Miami Vice' star Don Johnson admits to smoking weed in White House during Carter administration
Don Johnson pulled the curtain back on some wild visits to the White House. Johnson, 75, claimed he once smoked a joint at the White House, and got former President George H.W. Bush to gamble on a game of golf. During an appearance on 'Jimmy Kimmel Live!,' host Jimmy Kimmel showed the actor a photo from 1975 featuring Johnson with President Jimmy Carter and musicians Chuck Leavell and Dickey Betts taken at an Allman Brothers concert. 'I don't remember that photo, but we were all stoned,' Johnson admitted. He clarified that Carter was likely not stoned. 'Well, I don't know about him,' Johnson said. 'I don't want to cast any aspersions on the former president. God rest his soul.' Johnson landed his invite to the White House after working with the Allman Brothers on a concert for Carter's presidential campaign in 1976. 'Then the fun began,' he told Kimmel. 4 Don Johnson appears on 'Jimmy Kimmel Live!' on June 4, 2025. The late-night show host questioned what kind of fun they had at the White House. 'Nobody has fun at the White House,' Kimmel said before adding, 'I have heard Willie Nelson had fun there.' 'Is that the kind of fun you had there?' he asked Johnson. 'Did you smoke at the White House?' The 'Miami Vice' star seemingly struggled to answer. 'I don't know how to answer this. Well, yes… I guess I did,' admitted Johnson. According to the veteran actor, he's visited the White House during each president's administration since Carter. Johnson continued to tell Kimmel about his escapades, including a time he played a round of golf with Bush. 'He wanted to gamble when we played golf out at Camp David,' Johnson said. 'And so I took his money,' he recalled to laughter and applause from the audience. 4 A photo from 1975 featuring Johnson with President Jimmy Carter and musicians Chuck Leavell and Dickey Betts taken at an Allman Brothers concert. 4 Don Johnson and Patti D'Arbanville attend a state dinner at the White House in Washington, DC, on Sept. 10, 1985. Penske Media via Getty Images 'I'll tell you something else: He's a trash talker, and he ran into a buzzsaw, because so am I.' When questioned about how much Bush bet, Johnson said 'it wasn't that much.' 'Eighteen or 20 bucks,' he told Kimmel, adding, 'But that's the best 18 or 20 bucks you'll ever get.' Johnson isn't the first celebrity to share wild stories from the White House. Country legend Willie Nelson originally claimed he smoked weed with someone in Carter's administration during his infamous trip to the White House. However, Carter later clarified that Nelson actually smoked with his son, James Earl 'Chip' Carter III. 4 According to the veteran actor, he's visited the White House during each president's administration since Carter. 'When Willie Nelson wrote his autobiography, he confessed that he smoked pot in the White House one night when he was spending the night with me,' Carter said in the 2020 documentary, 'Jimmy Carter: Rock & Roll President.' 'And he says that his companion that shared the pot with him was one of the servants in the White House. 'That is not exactly true — it actually was one of my sons, which he didn't want to categorize as a pot-smoker like him.'

WWE SmackDown results, highlights (June 6): John Cena hit with R-Truth chants
John Cena finally went out with the last word on one of his final WWE TV appearances. (Photo by Georgiana Dallas/WWE via Getty Images) WWE returned to Bakersfield, California, for "WWE SmackDown" before the big weekend of action in Los Angeles. The time for talk about the Money In the Bank briefcases is over, and beatings to get the upper hand were dealt. Those were mostly delivered by the faces trying to run the place over on "WWE Raw." ⚔️ Crossover of the Night An appearance from the "Sethriders" wasn't expected to open "WWE SmackDown," but that's exactly what happened, and they ran roughshod throughout the night. Advertisement It instantly became a turf war when Seth Rollins, Paul Heyman, Bronson Reed and Bron Breakker were interrupted by Solo Sikoa, Jacob Fatu and JC Mateo. That was an unexpected cherry on top of what was already transpiring. Rollins' promo beforehand was nothing special other than your typical pre-Money In the Bank "I'm going to win the briefcase" claims. This was all a fresh, pleasant surprise, though. Sikoa and Rollins' sides did an incredible job of creating tension without ending the segment in a brawl. Well done, Triple H. I'll give you your flowers for avoiding the implosion between two heel stables — something rare enough in its own right. That's the beauty of matches like the Money In the Bank ladder match. Sikoa shined in this interaction, saying Rollins had his own version of The Bloodline, and questioned which roles his henchmen were. He specifically called back to Reed's history, teaming together at War Games. That only further added to how silly and nonsensical Reed being with Rollins was, but there clearly won't be a reasonable explanation too soon. Advertisement Ultimately, this whole opener made me want Fatu vs. Breakker as soon as possible, and preferably on a PLE so that it doesn't end in a bogus DQ finish. WWE teased that match heavily, so fingers crossed that it happens one day. Another feud I never knew I needed was LA Knight vs. Rollins. 🙄 DQ of the Night Not that a reminder was needed of how good he is when speaking, but Knight received some solid mic time before his match with Aleister Black to cut a fantastic promo for Money In the Bank. He targeted all the participants and highlighted how he and Rollins haven't interacted much, which added to the intrigue of that pairing. Advertisement Then there was the surprise that shouldn't have been a surprise, which was Rollins giving Knight the win over Black with a DQ when he attacked him. Every. Single. Show. It's so damn annoying, man. Any match between decently pushed talent can't end cleanly on TV anymore. It takes the wind out of everything beforehand. 🫠 Miss of the Night WWE had the opportunity to keep all this Rollins momentum going after his trio took out Penta and Andrade. Heyman jumped on the mic to cut a promo and get cut off by Cody Rhodes, which led to the final segment between him, Uso, John Cena and Logan Paul. Advertisement You know what Rollins and crew did? They hit the bricks and just left the ring. What? They attack numerous wrestlers throughout the night, then decide not to be a part of the "biggest" angle in the company. In kayfabe, that couldn't have made less sense. Once Cena arrived, the crowd erupted with the loudest cheers of the night. Some heel champion, huh? Outside of Cena and Paul coming out on top for a change, hitting finishers on Uso and Rhodes, it was another nothing interaction, with Cena repeating everything he has already said in recent weeks. He's going to ruin wrestling, they're humble, blah, blah, blah. Fittingly, it was all capped off with "We want Truth" chants. Cena then appeared to riff off the cuff, saying, "You can't handle the truth." That was the best part of all of this, but still, the absence of Rollins was absurd. Somehow, the closing segment wasn't the... 😂 Joke of the Night WWE has to have some inside rib going on with the attempts to make as many Zelina Vega vs. The Secret Hervice matches as possible. This time, it was Vega vs. Piper Niven in a "Bakersfield Brawl." It's absolutely stunning to see the level of repetition that there's been in this women's U.S. title scene. Thankfully, this has to be the end. Advertisement Vega won with the help of Giulia, powerbombing Niven through a table. Then she attacked the champion. Overall, it was whatever. Before the match, the teasing between her and Giulia continued, which was enough evidence that Giulia won't win her ladder match tomorrow night. Regarding Giulia, she had one hell of a night overall. 👑 Uncrowned Gem of the Night 👑 The women's Money In the Bank ladder match is the better of the two on tap for the event, and with that much talent packed into one match, that should be no surprise. Put each half of the match against each other in a trio match, and you're destined for a banger. That's what we got as a little appetizer before Saturday. Advertisement The babyface squad of Rhea Ripley, Alexa Bliss and Stephanie Vaquer got the win over Roxanne Perez, Giulia and Naomi when the latter let Perez get hit with the Riptide. It was a smart move, honestly, and the commentary team pointed it out. There was essentially no point to that match other than for one team to weaken some of the competition, which was what Naomi did despite it being her partner. It was just a great match from start to finish, with everyone getting their hits in, mixing some together for fun spots. Circling back to Giulia, however there was a reference from Wade Barrett on commentary to Giulia possibly cashing in on Vega if she wins the ladder match after what she did earlier. With Vega as one of the weakest champions in recent memory, I don't know if a stupider and more unnecessary booking decision could possibly come to mind. 👍 FRIDAY NIGHT FIRE 👍 1. Interferences and dirty finishes are almost mandatory in WWE now, so if they're done even somewhat creatively, it's a plus. And that's what happened when Jimmy Uso defeated Mateo with a roll-up after Sikoa and Fatu's failed distraction attempt. Advertisement Mateo clocked Fatu off the apron, furthering the dissension in the group. That's all the match was good for. 2. To springboard off that latter highlight, Sikoa talking smack behind Fatu's back was too good not to give a separate bullet. When this guy gets really into character, it's hilarious, man. 3. The King and Queen of the Ring tournaments are back starting next week. WWE appeared to give us a possible tease for the Queen of the Ring finals between Jade Cargill and Charlotte Flair. I know the fans certainly won't like that with Flair's side, but that's a great match and rivalry we need to see, especially with Cargill going over. 4. All of the top tag teams on "WWE SmackDown" gathered around backstage with general manager Nick Aldis to try and solve the Wyatt Sicks problem. This was pretty clever and cool to see, actually. It ended with Fraxiom being the ones to call for a match first. Nothing was made official, but I'm very curious to see how this whole overbooked tag team scene is handled. 🤷 IT HAPPENED 🤷 1. Penta and Andrade defeated American Made. This was a great match and showed how awesome of a team Penta and Andrade can be together. Why isn't this an overall positive, though? Because they're not a real tag team like the Creed Brothers are. So, the Creeds were just used at the expense of Chad Gable and his story. It's fine and to be expected at this point, but it would be better to see them secure wins for the division, as "WWE Raw" is currently lacking. Advertisement To make it even worse, and more hilarious, considering what happened to Knight, Rollins and crew attacked Penta and Andrade afterward. Poor American Made isn't even worth enough of a damn to Triple H to lose via his beloved DQ. 👎 DOWN & OUT 👎 1. Regarding the Wyatt Sicks, a cryptic and non-explanatory vignette preceded the tag team meeting with Aldis. All Bo Dallas said was that he and his crew were now family, and would take what they're owed. OK. Honestly, Dallas resembling a young Jack Black was more distracting than anything. 2. Jey Uso legitimately felt like nothing more than a meme, catchphrase wrestler next to Rhodes. 👑 This "WWE SmackDown" was really weird, and you felt the three hours. As usual, a lot of mixed feelings. I give this show a Crown score of: 6/10. 👑
