Prince Harry and Meghan Markle tied the knot in a royal wedding at St. George's Chapel in Windsor Castle on May 19, 2018. As the Duke and Duchess of Sussex celebrate their seventh wedding anniversary, one lip reader has analyzed previously unknown remarks made by Prince Harry on his wedding day.
Speaking to the Daily Mail, lip reader Terry Ruane revealed that, while waiting for Duchess Meghan to arrive, Prince Harry turned to his brother Prince William and said, "Is Meghan here?" According to Ruane, Harry subsequently joked, "My hair is going to go gray."
In a captioned video shared by USA Today, Prince Harry was visibly delighted when Meghan finally arrived at the altar, telling her, "You look amazing. I'm a lucky guy."
Meanwhile, royal editor and biographer Ingrid Seward suggested that Harry's grandmother, Queen Elizabeth, allegedly made some disparaging remarks about Harry and Meghan's wedding. Writing in the book My Mother and I, Seward alleged (via the Daily Mail), "The Queen never voiced her true opinions except to her close confidants, such as Lady Elizabeth Anson, or Liza as she was known to her friends." Seward continued, "She told me that the Queen had made only one remark about Meghan and Harry's wedding and that was that Meghan's Givenchy wedding gown was 'too white.'"
In honor of their anniversary, Meghan shared an Instagram post featuring photos of the couple and their family.
"Seven years of marriage," Meghan's caption explained. "A lifetime of stories." The duchess continued, "Thanks to all of you (whether by our side, or from afar) who have loved and supported us throughout our love story - we appreciate you. Happy anniversary!"

FACT FOCUS: A Craigslist ad is not proof of paid protesters in LA. It was posted as a prank

As demonstrations in Los Angeles over immigration raids unfolded in recent days, social media users falsely cited a Craigslist ad as evidence that protesters had been paid to participate. 'We are forming a select team of THE TOUGHEST dudes in the area,' the ad , which is no longer live, read. 'This unit will be activated only when the situation demands it — BUT YOU GET PAID EVERY WEEK NO MATTER WHAT. high-pressure, high-risk, no room for hesitation. We need individuals who do not break, panic, or fold under stress and are basically kickass dudes.' It offered $6,500-$12,500 in compensation per week. But the ad was a prank, it is not related to the Los Angeles protests. Here's a closer look at the facts. CLAIM: A Craigslist ad seeking 'the toughest badasses in the city' is proof that Los Angeles demonstrations over immigration raids are made up of paid protesters. THE FACTS: This is false. The ad , which appeared in Craigslist's Los Angeles section for general labor jobs, was bait for a prank show and had nothing to do with the protests in Los Angeles, the ad's creator told The Associated Press. It was posted on Thursday, the day before the protests began. In a livestreamed episode on Friday, the show's hosts called and spoke with people who responded to the ad. 'I literally had no idea it was ever going to be connected to the riots. It was a really weird coincidence,' said Joey LaFleur, who posted the ad on Craigslist. The ad was developed as part of a new prank show called 'Goofcon1,' said LaFleur, who hosts the podcast with Logan Quiroz. On their show Friday, the day protests began, they spoke live on the phone with people who responded during Goofcon1's third episode . LaFleur noted during the episode that he also posted a more 'militaristic' version of the ad in Craigslist's Austin section, but didn't get many responses. Screenshots of the ad were used in social media posts on multiple platforms, cited as proof that those involved in the Los Angeles protests had been paid. The posts gained tens of thousands of likes, shares, and views. 'CALIFORNIA RIOT IS A FUNDED OPERATION,' reads one X post sharing the ad. 'Destabilizing the Trump administration and the United States in general is the goal. Then, they receive billions of federal funding to 'fix' the damage and pocket the money.' A TikTok video sharing the ad viewed approximately 14,100 times called protesters 'paid agitators' who are turning 'what was initially a peaceful protest of just marching into a full-blown riot.' Others pointed to the ad as evidence that the protests 'aren't organic' or have been faked by Democrats. After screenshots of the ad spread on social media, LaFleur posted about the confusion on his Instagram story multiple times. 'Accidentally goofed the entire nation on the latest @goofcon1,' one post reads. In another, he muses: 'I don't really know what to do with any of this. I guess get on Newsmax, or something. If I get on Newsmax, that could be funny.' False claims about paid protesters regularly spread around demonstrations, especially those that attract national or international attention. Similar false claims spread widely in 2020 during demonstrations over George Floyd's death at the hands of Minneapolis police. ___ Find AP Fact Checks here: .

'The latest Race Across the World episode had one big problem'

Race Across the World series five has been an exciting ride so far but Wednesday's penultimate episode seemed to veer off track. Don't get me wrong, I loved the twist. Seeing last week's race leaders, Brian and Melvyn, open the checkpoint hotel book first — only to discover they were in fourth place. And a massive 17 hours behind. My heart sunk for them. Disappointed Brian sums it up perfectly in one word: "B*******." How this blow was delivered worked well on-screen... Only this is where I say the dreaded word "but". The latest episode was missing glimpses of the teams' journeys to the checkpoint. It is a race. I want to feel like I'm a passenger on the journey. That's one of the best things about race: vicariously travelling and feeling like you are part of the experience. I don't personally agree with some complaints online from viewers that the focus of the show has shifted to showing too much of "sob stories" instead of the journey. It's important to get to know the individuals taking part on the show and tell their extraordinary ordinary stories. That helps you choose who you are rooting for. But I did feel there wasn't enough racing which is particularly noticeable in this episode. (Note: this is my only grumbling complaint for the whole series.) There were too many jumps. We see Brian and Melvyn face a disaster while trying to leave the fancy vineyards in India. They are told on the phone: "Our office is closed today. But you can wait at the hotel, I'll send my representative in 45 minutes maximum". Then it cuts to them mysteriously arriving at Panjim. It was only upon revisiting the episode, I found the BBC snuck the answer into John Hannah's voiceover where they are trying to make up for the missing gaps. "After an 11-hour bus, Brian and Melvyn have arrived in Panjim," he quickly informs us before the brothers get into race mode to the checkpoint. Were there really no moments from the 11-hour bus journey really worth showing? And why did Brian and Melvyn choose to get the bus in the first place? This feels massive to miss out, especially as the previous race leaders are unlikely to win the show now. From behind the scenes, Brian on Instagram gives us more information: "That was a bit unfortunate. Started first, ended up last, 17 hours behind everybody. Maybe it was the vineyard. I don't know. It could have been maybe. We didn't catch a train, that might have been our mistake. But one more leg to go." Check out the telling photos from Race Across the World's final... Race Across the World's Fin and Sioned are seen prioritising travel on the final leg of the race. (BBC/Studio Lambert) Melvyn adds in a separate video on Instagram: "Unfortunate that one wasn't it? Was it the vineyard that took us out the way? I've just seen Brian's video and I kind of agree. I'm still trying to figure out how we ended up so far behind. The vineyard was a pleasant treat. The countryside was absolutely beautiful." It's not only Brian and Melvyn's journeys that are cut short. They all are. With Sioned and Fin, we know that a kind Indian stranger calls a taxi for them and it's going to cost them INR 6,000 (£51), including tolls. "He'll be waiting for us? Wow that's good. What a lovely guy," Fin says. Only we never see the teenage couple get into the taxi. And we don't see them navigate their way to checkpoint. We only see the disappointment they feel at coming third place at the checkpoint hotel. When it comes to Elizabeth and Letitia, the last time we see them before the checkpoint they are just northeast of Mumbai. "We are getting to checkpoint today," they jointly celebrate while getting onto the train. The voiceover tells us they are taking "advantage of the Indian rail network" but the rest of their journey remains a mystery. Six minutes later the sisters are back on screen magically opening the page of the book to find out they are in second place. We do know that current race leaders Caroline and Tom managed to miraculously get their seats confirmed for the train out of Mumbai. This is a surprise as Sioned and Fin had been warned by a local not to go via Mumbai to Goa because the train tickets are often booked up months in advance. But it is also a hint that Caroline and Tom are going to be accelerated into first place in the race. We do get to see moments of them running up the stairs in the glossy checkpoint hotel but the rest of their journey is glossed over. Maybe the answer is longer episodes or perhaps more episodes in the series to fit everything in. I hope the edit of the final captures everything we need to know about the last leg of the journey so we aren't left feeling cheated at the outcome. We all have our favourites watching at home but it's not really about who wins on Race Across the World. It's about the journey. Race Across the World's final airs at 9pm on Wednesday on BBC One.
