Kate Middleton Stands By Prince William As Harry's Actions Leave 'Deep' Wounds, Royal Expert Says
Kate Middleton reportedly has no plans to reconcile with Prince Harry, as she chooses to stand by her husband, Prince William, amid ongoing tensions. Kate and Harry once shared a close bond, but their relationship soured after the duke and his wife, Meghan Markle's public criticisms of the royal family. Kate Middleton was reportedly heartbroken by the fallout with Prince Harry and the duchess, especially as she battled health challenges. Kate reportedly has no intention of initiating any reconciliation with Harry, choosing instead to remain firmly aligned with William. According to Us Weekly, the Prince and Princess of Wales are increasingly frustrated and "just don't understand why Harry doesn't stay quiet" after the royal exit. However, royal commentator Kinsey Schofield shared a different perspective with Fox News Digital, suggesting William's hurt stems from his desire to shield his wife from Harry's actions. "Catherine has been nothing but supportive of her husband – and that's exactly why Prince William is so deeply hurt," Schofield noted. He continued, "His pain doesn't come from personal insults or headlines. It comes from his instinct to protect the woman he loves… But what cuts the deepest is Harry's treatment of Catherine. She's always loved him, always treated him like a little brother. That's the betrayal William won't forget… But Harry never seems to think about the consequences." Meanwhile, British broadcaster and photographer Helena Chard told the publication that Kate has been quietly heartbroken over the ongoing rift between William and Harry, but has no plans to enter the drama. "Catherine and Harry shared a fun humor and were often seen giggling together at events," Chard shared. She continued, "Sadly and upsettingly, Princess Catherine was dragged into the public negative narrative, which was a real smack around the face for the kind of sister-in-law who tried hard to be the peacemaker between the brothers." The tension that has grown since Harry and Meghan departed from royal life further deepened following Harry's explosive memoir "Spare" and Meghan's 2021 Oprah Winfrey interview, during which she claimed Kate made her cry ahead of the royal wedding. According to a source cited by Us Weekly, Kate was deeply affected by the accusation. "The reframing of events upset her, and making up a narrative that Kate is mean was devastating," the source claimed. "She can't retaliate, and Meghan knows that." Chard told Fox News Digital that while Kate and Meghan never had much in common, the Princess of Wales was genuinely pleased when Harry found love. "Princess Catherine was happy when Prince Harry met Meghan," Chard noted. "She was thrilled that Prince Harry seemed genuinely happy… The three musketeers became the 'Fab Four'… Princess Catherine [silently] cannot understand why Prince Harry still won't bite his tongue and continues his destructive path." But that harmony didn't last. Chard explained that Kate entered "protection mode" as the "Sussexes aired more and more allegations, grievances, and untruths against members of the British royal family." "Her goals have been protecting the crown, future-proofing the monarchy, [honoring] the late Queen Elizabeth II's legacy, and protecting her children from Prince Harry's hurtful commentary," Chard added. After years of trying to bridge the gap, Kate has now also stepped back from "any role of attempting to mediate a reconciliation" between the brothers, royal expert Fordwich explained. "She and William are now totally at one regarding hypocritical Harry. She's far more focused on her health and family. She's rather hurt," Fordwich stated. In his memoir "Spare," Harry paints an affectionate picture of his early relationship with Kate. He described the princess as "a fantastic girl" and even joked about their dynamic, saying, "I'm really looking forward to getting her under my wing. She'll be taking me under her wing, probably." Harry recalled feeling genuinely close to Kate, writing: "I loved my new sister-in-law. I felt she was more sister than in-law, the sister I'd never had and always wanted, and I was pleased that she'd forever be standing by Willy's side. They made each other visibly happy, and therefore I was happy too." The duke wrote about their first meeting, noting that it left a lasting impression on him. He remembered her as "carefree, sweet, and kind," noting her love for photography, art, and fashion. "She'd done a gap year in Florence," he wrote. "She loved clothes… I liked seeing Kate laugh. Better yet, I liked making her laugh. And I was quite good at it." Unfortunately, as things stand, it is unlikely Harry and Kate's relationship would ever return to the way it once was.

King Charles, Prince William expected at Trooping the Colour; no Harry
(NewsNation) — One of the biggest events for the British royal family will be happening this weekend to mark the monarch's birthday. But who will be in attendance this year? Trooping the Colour takes place on June 14 each year, with musicians, horses and parading soldiers taking part in the celebration. Royal family members will also sometimes join in on the fun, riding horseback and being in horse-drawn carriages. Kanye West changes name to 'Ye Ye': Documents After the parade, senior royals will gather on the balcony of Buckingham Palace to watch the Red Arrows fly overhead. King Charles, Queen Camilla and his son, Prince William, should all be in attendance. However, with royals clashing and Prince Harry's recent bid for security being denied, who can we expect to see at this year's event? There's no doubt that King Charles, 76, and his wife, Queen Camilla, will be at the center of the balcony, waving to the crowd below. Express Newspapers reported that 42-year-old Prince William, along with Princess Kate, Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis, will also be on the balcony. In 2024, after much speculation, Kate did end up attending the event despite her abdominal surgery and cancer diagnosis. Charles' brother, 61-year-old Prince Edward, should also be in attendance with his wife, Duchess Sophie. It is unclear if their children, Lady Louise and James, will be with them. Louise was with her parents in 2024, but James had skipped for his exams. Princess Anne is set to be on the balcony with her husband, Vice Admiral Sir Timothy Laurence. Other senior royals who should be in attendance include: The Duke of Gloucester, Prince Richard The Duchess of Gloucester, Birgitte The Duke of Kent, Prince Edward Sabrina Carpenter announces new album 'Man's Best Friend' This is allegedly a smaller crowd than what Queen Elizabeth saw during her reign. When she had the throne, other royals who would be on the balcony included Princess Eugenie, Princess Beatrice, Zara Tindall and Peter Phillips. Queen Elizabeth would invite the entire royal family to join her for the event, but that changed in 2022, according to The Mirror. The late queen had decided to only invite working members to the balcony, which excluded Harry and his wife, as well as Prince Andrew. The only exception made was for Princess Anne's husband, Sir Tim, her two youngest grandchildren and her great-grandchildren. King Charles kept those same rules in 2023 and 2024 and will likely keep that same pace this year, since Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, along with their children, are not expected to attend. One insider recently told NewsNation's Paula Froelich that Prince Harry 'doesn't really have any friends' in Montecito and is 'very lonely.' Sources told People magazine that Harry 'has one foot in the past,' and his friends agreed. 'He spent his entire life in England with family and friends. It's harder to forge deep friendships with people when you're older, especially if you're wary they may speak to the press.' King Charles and Prince William allegedly don't speak to Harry for the same reason—that what they say will be repeated to a news outlet. After Duke Edward abdicated, the royal family didn't have much contact with his family. The Duke and Duchess of Windsor became outcasts among the elite, and Edward's brother, King George, only saw him a few times in private after the abdication. Beach Boys' Brian Wilson dies, family 'at a loss for words' The difference between Harry and his wife and Edward and his wife is that the Duke and Duchess of Windsor remain mostly quiet.

Meghan Markle's Happiest Moments Turned Into 'Ammunition for Hate'
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. Meghan Markle pregnancy truthers have turned "some of the happiest and most vulnerable moments" of her life "into ammunition for hate," according to a social media analyst. A contingent of social media have for years been advancing the unsubstantiated theory that Meghan faked her pregnancy, most recently after the duchess posted an old family video from the hospital while pregnant with Princess Lilibet in 2021. In the footage, Meghan was doing Starrkeisha's "Baby Mama" dance, but online trolls used the clip to argue her bump looked fake. Meghan Markle in London on March 11, 2019. Meghan Markle in London on March 11, 2019. Samir Hussein/WireImage Christopher Bouzy, who was interviewed for the royal's own Netflix biopic Harry & Meghan, told Newsweek: "It would be easy to laugh at such absurdity if it weren't so destructive. "Over the years, these ridiculous lies have cascaded into a full-blown harassment campaign against Meghan and her family. "We cannot ignore the real-world impact that this kind of sustained conspiracy harassment has. Imagine, for a moment, what it would feel like to have some of the happiest and most vulnerable moments of your life turned into ammunition for hate. "Every maternity dress and every baby video becomes 'evidence' for strangers obsessively trying to prove your pregnancies were a sham. It is sickening and cruel." Bouzy and his social media analysis company Bot Sentinel investigated trolling of Meghan online by a group of dedicated social media accounts. He was also interviewed about it for Meghan and Prince Harry's first Netflix series Harry & Meghan, released in December 2022. The duchess previously told the Teenager Therapy podcast in 2020 that social media abuse had been "almost unsurvivable." Bouzy this week said: "Meghan has spoken about how she had suicidal thoughts at the height of the abuse; one doesn't have to stretch to see a link between that despair and the ceaseless torrent of vilification she endured. "Beyond the personal toll on Meghan and Harry, there's a broader societal damage to consider. When conspiracy theories like these flourish, they corrode our collective grasp on reality and decency." Meghan announced her first pregnancy with Prince Archie in fall 2018 while on a tour of Australia and the South Pacific and the 6-year-old was born in May 2019. Her daughter Lilibet was born in 2021 and Meghan released the "Baby Mama" dance video to mark her fourth birthday, on June 4. In the caption, the duchess wrote: "Four years ago today, this also happened. Both of our children were a week past their due dates... so when spicy food, all that walking, and acupuncture didn't work—there was only one thing left to do!"
