How Kate Middleton Learned from Princess Diana's Mistakes
Kate Middleton is learning from the mistakes her late mother-in-law Princess Diana made—specifically with the press—and attempting to improve her royal experience in the process. Unlike the late Princess of Wales—who used to communicate with the media frequently—Kate's approach to the press is more tightly controlled. It's also significant, author Edward White shared, that Kate didn't marry Prince William until she was nearly 30 years old; Diana, meanwhile, was barely 20 when she married Prince so many ways, this generation of royals is taking lessons learned from the generation prior and improving the overall royal experience. This is perhaps most notably happening in the raising of royal children, but Kate Middleton is also learning from the mistakes of royals who have gone before her in other ways, too. When it comes to her late mother-in-law Princess Diana, for example, Kate handles dealing with the press differently to forge a better way forward for herself, a new book claims. In Edward White's new book Dianaworld: An Obsession—which hit shelves April 29—the author unpacks why Diana's celebrity seemed to eclipse that of any other, including pop stars, movie stars, and basically every other royal ever. The current Princess of Wales (Kate) has learned amply from the former Princess of Wales (Diana)—especially in how Diana dealt with media attention, including the paparazzi who chased her down until her final moments in Paris. In one regard, though, it seems Kate is actually harkening back to the past, pre-Diana's entrance into the fold when she married Prince Charles in 1981. 'Kate Middleton is much more reminiscent of the older generation of royal figures in the way that she comports herself,' White told Fox News (via Marie Claire). As opposed to Diana—who had just turned 20 years old the same month she married Charles—Kate was 'almost 30 when she married William, and that was deliberate from both sides. The big lesson that she probably learned from Diana's life is don't rush into becoming a royal.' For context, Diana was barely in her 20s and had only spent time with Charles a handful of times—and even less just the two of them alone—when they married. Kate was 29 when she married Prince William and had already known him for nearly a decade, first as friends, then as roommates, and then as a couple. Unlike Kate, the former Lady Diana Spencer 'didn't know what she was getting herself into' when she married Charles, White said. 'She was so young and very, very sheltered when she entered the royal family,' he said. As for how each handles the ever-present press, Diana and Kate have employed very different tactics. The controversial media figure Piers Morgan—who worked with Diana in the 1990s—recently appeared on the 'Him & Her Show' podcast and said that 'Diana worked the media exactly the same way the media worked Diana.' 'I used to have lunch with Diana,' Morgan said. 'I used to talk to her on the phone quite regularly,' adding that he 'used to send her stories that we were going to run and she would edit them and fax them back.' Kate, though, tends to follow more in Queen Elizabeth's footsteps when dealing with the media. The future queen doesn't give a lot of interviews—nor did the late Queen—and Kate prefers to use social media to deliver her own messages rather than depend on media outlets to handle that task. Queen Elizabeth and Kate's method of dealing with the press is more tightly controlled than Diana's, which could—and very often did—go off the rails from time to time. 'Diana dealt with the press scrutiny in the way that she felt that she could, and in the way that she felt she had to,' White said. 'I don't think anybody was advising her to behave the way that she did with them.' Kate, on the other hand, 'handles the press scrutiny really well' but she 'had to switch herself off and only focus on duty.' For Kate, 'the best way of dealing with the scrutiny is by giving [the media] nothing. By stepping through the hoops of shaking hands, cutting ribbons, and smiling, being dutiful and not being too big for your boots. Those are all the things that the monarchy is built on.' 'Diana's life is more reminiscent to me of a pop star's life,' White added. 'Someone once said, 'If you don't know who you are before you're famous, then fame is the thing that you become. It is the thing that will define who you are.' I think that's what happened to Diana, at least for many years.' Read the original article on InStyle

Ivanka Trump & Karlie Kloss' Reported Feud Took an Unexpected Turn, New Photos Confirm
Ivanka Trump's relationship with her sister-in-law Karlie Kloss may have seemed icy over the years, but these new photos (and previous insider scoops) prove that they're closer than people may have thought. In photos obtained by DailyMail, we can see the four of them having a sun-kissed time in Costa Rica, looking like they don't have a care in the world. The four looked quite chummy, sending many online users to play catch-up. More from SheKnows Ivanka Trump Is Reportedly Lining up for This Controversial Billionaire Experience As far as people were concerned, the two weren't close at all, considering the nature of their political affiliations, with Kloss being a proud Democrat and Ivanka having previously worked in her father's administration. However, this new trip may confirm that Kloss and Ivanka are turning over a new leaf, especially after Ivanka's telling admission. (In case you missed it, she said on the Skinny Confidential's Him & Her Show in Jan 2025: 'I hate politics. It's a very dark, negative. And some people love like the gladiator aspect of it: the fight. That was never me.' For years, people have noticed the stark differences between Kloss and Ivanka, as well as the alleged sub-tweets between them. Rumors ran especially rampant after Kloss never reciprocated any support for Ivanka, despite Ivanka's efforts to show support for her sister-in-law's career moves and her pregnancy announcement in 2025. Back in 2023, insiders claimed that they've reportedly turned a new leaf, and it may be because of their husbands' close bond. According to insiders from The Messenger via MSN, the author of The Trump Card and Kloss allegedly socialized frequently ever since Ivanka decided to step down from politics in late 2023. They said, 'Ivanka and Jared hang out frequently with Karlie and Joshua at events and family gatherings.' The insider added that since their husbands, brothers Jared Kushner and Joshua Kushner, 'are very close,' the Kushner wives have allegedly been trying to make more of a bond. (However, Kloss doesn't follow her sister-in-law back on Instagram, which still confuses fans.) In 2024, sources even told Page Six that Ivanka and Kloss are closer than people may have thought. 'Ivanka and Karlie have a good relationship, they're in the same family and they spend time at family events together, they also have an overlapping social circle in Miami,' the insider noted. 'They may not be best friends, but it's wide off the mark to say they don't get along.'Best of SheKnows 38 Times Carmen Electra's Head-Turning Red Carpet Fashion Left Us Flustered & Enchanted These 20 Celebs Have Been Called Out by Restaurant Staff for Their Allegedly Rude Behavior Everything We Know About Suri Cruise, Her Relationship With Her Dad & Her Life As A Young Adult

In her post, the 43-year-old explained that she would immediately be undergoing surgery to remove two of her tumors. However, last weekend, Mellencamp updated fans that her doctors have unfortunately found more tumors. "Update from my scans today: I have multiple tumors in my brain that weren't able to be removed via surgery," posted Mellencamp, who was previously diagnosed with melanoma back in 2022. "I also have two tumors in my lungs. These are all metastases of my melanoma." "The doctors are hopeful that immunotherapy will effectively treat them. I am feeling positive that I will win this battle, that I got this wig (I like the short hair, just not the bald spots), and that I can remember all of Angelina's kids' names." Teddi Mellencamp / Via She ended her post by saying, "Now, as @bravoandy would say: with all due… f*** off, cancer!" The Bravo star was immediately shown an outpouring of love from her fellow Beverly Hills castmates... ...as well as messages of love from other Bravo stars within the franchise: You can learn more about Mellencamp's cancer journey on the Him & Her Show below.
