Kensington Palace Just Dropped Striking New Photos of William & Kate—and They've Never Looked More in Their Element
New photos shared by Kensington Palace capture the Prince and Princess of Wales immersed in the day's activities. The first image is particularly striking: taken from a low angle, it shows William and Kate walking through the forest, surrounded by towering trees. Kate blends beautifully into the natural backdrop, wearing charcoal jeans, an olive-green sweater and a matching blazer. William opted for a more subdued look with navy trousers and a black sweater.
On day two of their visit, the Prince and Princess of Wales ventured into the Ardura Community Forest, where they spent time with children participating in an outdoor learning session led by forest rangers. The final day of their brief tour is centered on nature and environmental conservation—a cause both royals have championed passionately over the years.
While the opening shot is visually captivating, it's the subsequent images that truly stand out. In several, the couple can be seen warmly interacting with children and members of the local community. One particularly touching moment shows Kate crouching down, beaming as she hands a small bouquet to a young girl. William is also seen leaning in to chat with two young boys, using a beloved royal parenting technique to connect with them at eye level.
This visit feels deeply aligned with who William and Kate are—comfortable in the outdoors, naturally engaging with children and fully present in their roles as leaders and parents.
Ian Vogler -On social media, the couple emphasized the significance of outdoor education and conservation. 'Spending time in Ardura Community Forest with the Mull and Iona Ranger Service and young nature explorers,' they wrote. 'A powerful reminder of the importance of protecting the environment and the role outdoor learning plays in building connection and care for nature.'
They also announced continued support through The Royal Foundation and United for Wildlife, which will provide resources for local rangers—ensuring ongoing protection of these cherished natural spaces.

Speaking with PopViewers on Friday, Aug. 8, the Summer House star, 40, revealed that Carl is not his legal first name. "My middle name is Carl," he shared. "My family — we always, for whatever reason, we always went by your middle name. My brother even went by his middle name. But my ID and my passport — my first name is William. So my middle name is Carl, but I've always, since day one, been called Carl." "It's a family thing," he continued. "My mom has a different explanation for it, which I don't understand. But yeah, my full name is William Carl [Radke]." In May, Radke — alongside a group of Bravo bachelors, including Shep Rose, Jesse Solomon, Fraser Olender, Tom Schwartz and Tyson Beckford — spoke with PEOPLE about his dating life, nearly two years after splitting from fiancée and fellow Summer House star Lindsay Hubbard. "I've been dating a little bit, but I've been really focused on work," he shared at the time.

'I'd like to think that I'm a good listener," Radke told PEOPLE. "I'm very supportive. I show up for my partner. I really want to see them succeed and be successful." Radke also spoke about how his family reacted to watching his heavy makeout session on TV, joking that his mom "would say watching me back was watching me on steroids." "Now I was partying a lot and all that, but I now appreciate how Jesse's friends are saying, 'It's like actually seeing Carl.' I'm a little awkward, I'm a little goofy. My friends are now seeing me, which is, I think, a true compliment," he said.

When speaking with Entertainment Tonight at the premiere of her Netflix show, 'Running Point,' in February 2025, Kate shot down the notion her family could ever star in a reality show, bluntly saying, 'It'll never happen.' 'Listen, my dad, he's just too cool. He'd rather just be in Colorado just being dad. … Snake Plissken doesn't do reality,' Kate said, referencing stepdad Kurt Russell's character in the movies 'Escape from New York' and 'Escape from LA.' Russell and Hawn began dating when Kate and Oliver were both young, and although the couple never married, he shares a close bond with them both.

'There was a moment when he asked us — myself and Kate — if we wanted to be adopted, and we said no. Not that we were, you know, very aware of probably what it even f—ing meant. … We just said, 'Well, we don't need it. The love is right there.' 'At the same time, when you don't have your biological [father] around, it's hard to replace that, no matter what. The love was there with Kurt, no doubt about it. He is my dad. I call him Pa. But there was always, not something missing, but it was always sort of like, 'Wow, but there's that other side.''

Shockingly bad ‘War of the Worlds' is one of the worst movies of the decade
movie review WAR OF THE WORLDS Zero Stars Zero Stars. Running time: 91 minutes. Rated PG-13 (some sci-fi action/violence, strong language and bloody images). On Prime Video. 'The War of the Worlds' is a seminal 1898 Martian-attack novel by H.G. Wells. And in 1938, it was turned into a national-panic-inducing radio broadcast by Orson Welles. Advertisement Now, Prime Video's noxious new movie adaptation of the story, starring Ice Cube, has got me feeling unwells. It's easily one of the worst films of the decade — a war on our will to live. E.T. Extra-Terrible. The Search for Schlock. How has what should've been a standard-issue space-invader explosion fest turned into a brainless corporate HR instructional video? Advertisement Step aboard the time machine. Director Rich Lee's repellent film was shot way back in 2020 with strict Covid rules, which means the whole travail is just a series of Zoom calls at Ice Cube's character William's office. Cube in a cubicle. Just what everybody wants to watch after work: Ice Cube typing in his password. 5 Ice Cube stars in a new adaptation of 'The War of the Worlds.' Amazon Prime Advertisement Once completed, 'The War of the Worlds' sat on a shelf for five years. It should've stayed put. But no. The mess was quietly dropped on Amazon Prime last week like an afternoon package delivery. In the studio's sole wise decision, they decided not to screen this garbage for critics ahead of time. If all that doesn't scream 'hit!'… Advertisement Actually, 'War' has shot up to No. 5 on the Prime Video charts in the US, thanks to bored masochists. But those gluttons for punishment have now discovered what poorly made, confusing, logic-free muck it is. 5 A global alien invasion is over inside of 90 minutes. Amazon Prime The story, which the filmmakers have had only 127 years to adapt, appears to take place in real time. A global alien invasion — America, Russia, China, Africa — begins and ends inside 91 minutes. 'Independence Day' is a documentary next to 'The War of the Worlds.' And Ice Cube in a cardigan is no 1990s Will Smith. His off-putting character is hardly up to the task of saving the planet in two hours from a swivel chair. Will works at the Department of Homeland Security tracking terrorist threats via a network of cameras and drones. 5 Eva Longoria plays a NASA employee. Amazon Prime Advertisement Ice Cube shouts at the monitor, makes clownish facial expressions and places endless video calls — to Will's pregnant daughter, his tech-obsessed son and Eva Longoria's Sandra, who is employed by NASA in some vague capacity. Mystifyingly, there is nobody else at this office in, I repeat, the Department of Homeland Security during the middle of the workday. A creep, William also obsessively stalks his kids' movements using company equipment. Then, Earth is struck by coordinated asteroids that contain giant alien robots that start wreaking havoc in major world cities. Advertisement We see the action, such as it is, from news broadcasts and drone footage. 5 Most of the movie is Ice Cube's character Will on Zoom calls. Amazon Prime The special effects are a huge step down from Steven Spielberg's 'War of the Worlds' starring Tom Cruise 20 years ago. This CGI would actually be very good if it weren't for the music video of 'Blue' by Eiffel 65. Advertisement Alas, the only thing blue here is the poor viewer. Can the script make up for the cheap-o visuals? Nope. I was certain the dialogue was written by a hamster with ink on its paws until I checked the IMDB page. The screenplay by Kenny Golde and Marc Hyman gets overcomplicated because they're desperately reaching for something to spice up Ice Cube staring at a computer at his desk. Advertisement 5 Amazon should scrap this movie from their streaming service. Amazon Prime So, William also pursues a WikiLeaks-like hacker called the Disruptor, who is trying to expose the US Government's plan to spy on citizens. Improbably, the manner in which the Disruptor subplot unfolds is more preposterous than the alien attacks. The day is saved toward the end when an Amazon delivery guy pilots a drone to ship a thumb drive across Washington, DC. That really happens. However, the best way for Amazon to protect humanity would be to take this abomination off its streaming service.
