Prince Harry's sensational hint at possible royal return leaves some 'bewildered'

Our community members are treated to special offers, promotions and adverts from us and our partners. You can check out at any time. More info Royal insiders have purportedly been left gobsmacked by the newest sign that suggests Prince Harry and Meghan might be considering a Royal comeback, dubbed the "biggest hint yet". Many actions from the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, since stepping back from public duties half a decade ago, have reportedly stunned the Royal Household, including allegations of racism within the family ranks and Meghan's viral video where she was seen "twerking" in the maternity ward prior to baby Lilibet's arrival. Palace sources have now shared inside info regarding passport applications for both Prince Archie, six, and Princess Lilibet, four. Rumour has it the passports bear their HRH titles and the surname Sussex, which people reckon signals Harry and Meghan's wish for their kids to choose their own paths regarding a life of Royal duty or private existence once they grow up. Such moves are being interpreted by some as "the biggest hint" that Harry and Meghan could be eyeing a return to Royal duties. Daily Mail Royal correspondent Richard Eden has penned in today's paper: "The suggestion gives the biggest hint yet that they're hoping to mend fences." Consequently, this prompts speculation over whether the Sussexes, who left the routine Royal roles to chase success across the pond, may consider rejoining the Royal ranks through their children, reports the Mirror. The Guardian initially reported the revelation last week, stating: "The Guardian understands that Prince Harry wants to keep the HRH titles for his children so that when they grow older they can decide for themselves whether they want to become working royals, or stay out of public life." Insiders have expressed surprise and doubt in response to Harry and Meghan's actions and revelations since their move to the US. Mr Eden quotes a Royal source saying: "'I find this very hard to understand,' one royal source told me this week... 'Harry and Meghan apparently found official duties and life within the Royal Family unbearable, yet they want this for their children. It doesn't make sense.'". "It's true that the Sussexes have devoted much time and energy to publicising their unhappiness with royal life. It's hard to forget Harry's grin on a video as he described their 'freedom flight' to Los Angeles when they began their American adventure in 2020." Meghan recently discussed the possibility of running a business with her daughter, Lilibet, in the future. However, a source told PEOPLE that Meghan is focused on the future and is "very business about it", while Harry reportedly has "one foot in the past".

American tries roast dinner for first time but is floored by condiment

An American man sampled a British roast dinner for the first time, but it wasn't quite what he expected. One key element of the dish appeared to leave him very disappointed Sometimes it's good to get out of your comfort zone, especially when it comes to food. After all, there are so many different delicacies to try that it seems rude not to sample something new every now and then, but one American was left a little underwhelmed when he tucked into a roast dinner for the first time ever. The man was captured in a TikTok video sampling a roast, and he couldn't quite get over the experience, with parts of the recipe appearing to leave him confused. As well as sampling all the vegetables, he was handed some bread sauce and mint sauce to try, and it wasn't quite what he expected. ‌ In the clip, shared by AJ Slambino, you can see that a feast had been laid out on the table. As they sat down to eat, there were even pigs in blankets and stuffing on offer - it really was a roast with all the trimmings. ‌ He's seen saying: "I've never had mint sauce. There's a lot going on here, ok? There's a little kick to it. It's not spice - it's like that flavour. It's vinegar. "I'm going to be honest, I don't know if I would eat this again. I don't like the vinegar taste." Warning: Below video may contain offensive language He then moves on to try the bread sauce, but he seemed to like this a lot more. The critique was heard adding: "Yeah, that's divine. Mint sauce though, I don't think I'd do mint sauce again. I think I would pass on that." Since the video was shared, it's been viewed hundreds of times, and people were quick to comment too. Some Brits couldn't get over the fact that he didn't like mint sauce. ‌ One said: "Mint sauce with everything, every roast, all of them." Another added: "Mint sauce on everything with gravy." A third replied: "Mint sauce goes with any roast in my opinion. At the very least, make a mint gravy." Meanwhile, a fourth also commented: "Bread sauce is in the elite tier." Others had different ideas though, as someone else suggested: "Always mint jelly, not mint sauce. It's sweeter and not like vinegar." One more also chimed in with: "Bread sauce is for chicken and turkey, mint sauce is for lamb." Despite having mixed feelings about aspects of the dish, AJ reveals he managed to clear his plate at the end. Overall, he must have thought it tasted pretty good, as not a scrap was left. Most people tend to eat mint sauce with lamb, and there's a good reason why. As the vingear gives it a lively tang, it's able to cut through the richness of lamb with just the right amount of acid, fragrance and sweetness. Meanwhile, bread sauce is usually served alongside a classic roast chicken or turkey. Many Brits pair it with white meat, esepcially at Christmas time.
