Meghan shares a very loved up clip from behind-the-scenes of New York Summit with Harry - just a day after Kate shared her own BTS footage
Meghan Markle has shared a behind-the-scenes video of her appearance at the TIME100 Summit on Instagram. The mother-of-two, 43, attended the event in New York on Wednesday, accompanied by her husband Prince Harry, 40. She spoke alongside Ryan Reynolds, Demi Moore, and other stars at the summit, which was designed to 'spotlight solutions and encourage action toward a better world.' On Thursday, she shared a behind-the-scenes video of her time at the event, which showed her meeting and greeting people, getting ready to go on stage, and kissing Prince Harry. The clip was posted to Instagram, and accompanied by a caption which said: 'Feeling grateful for yesterday's conversation at TIME 100. You can read more about my experience at Meghan's video comes just one day after Catherine, the Princess of Wales, 43, shared a behind-the-scenes video of Prince Louis having his portrait taken for his seventh birthday. The young prince, who turned seven on April 23, sat for a portrait to mark the occasion earlier this month while spending time with his family at Anmer Hall on the Sandringham Estate in Norfolk. Video footage shared via the Kensington Palace social media accounts shows the young royal larking about. In the clip, he proudly shows off his gap-toothed smile after losing his two front teeth, peering straight into the camera and beaming. During another point in the video he is seen running around, and is heard saying: 'I can jump down from there' in words that any parent of an adventurous seven-year-old boy will recognise. He is seen leaping off a fallen tree trunk - proving that he was, in fact, able to make the jump safely. The footage cuts to sepia clips which flicker in the style of old-fashioned moving pictures - which some may recognise from the Princess of Wales's emotive video released last September in which she confirmed she had completed chemotherapy and was 'cancer-free'. It has not yet been confirmed who recorded this clip of Louis, however the Prince and Princess of Wales have previously worked with filmmaker Will Warr - also known as the cameraman for social media food sensation TopJaw. Earlier in the day, Catherine had shared a sweet snap of her youngest son, pictured against a stunning spring backdrop, on the Prince and Princess of Wales 's Kensington Royal social media accounts. The photo is captioned: 'Wishing Prince Louis a very Happy 7th Birthday!' Flashing his beaming smile at the camera in the photo, Prince Louis is dressed in a white and blue checked shirt, with a green jumper layered over the top and paired with jeans. His brunette hair is swept to the side. The young royal is sitting among a stunning spring scene surrounded by bluebells, in the garden at Anmer Hall in Norfolk, the Wales family's residence on the Sandringham Estate. Catherine, who often takes her children's royal portraits herself as a keen photographer, broke from tradition as she shared the photo later in the morning of Louis's special day - whereas portraits have previously been released at midnight on each child's birthday. In another twist, keen photographer Catherine did not take the portrait of her youngest son. Instead it was taken by one of the family's preferred photographers, Josh Shinner, in Norfolk earlier this month. Meanwhile, Meghan's behind-the-scenes clip of her attendance at the TIME100 Summit was similarly upbeat. Clips of the 43-year-old preparing to go on stage, as well as footage of her conversation with Jessica Sibley, CEO of TIME Magazine was accompanied by the song Ac-Cent-Tchu-Ate the Positive, sung by Aretha Franklin. According to a post on Sussex's website, during the 'dynamic' conversation: 'Meghan reflected on the intentionality that drives her work—leading with purpose, creating with care, and building a legacy that champions women and uplifts communities. 'She spoke candidly about her entrepreneurial journey and latest ventures. The conversation also explored how Meghan finds balance between her public roles and private life. She offered a grounded and personal perspective on motherhood, creativity, and carving out space for what matters most.' She also spoke about her latest Netflix venture, With Love, Meghan, as well as her new podcast Confessions of a Female Founder. The duchess sported a business-chic look for the summit, wearing a Ralph Lauren suit worth £3,600 alongside tens of thousands of pounds worth of accessories. She donned light brown, wide-leg silk trousers and a matching silk and linen blazer from the brand Ralph Lauren. The set costs £3,685. Beneath the trendy jacket, she wore a white button down top tucked into the loose-fitting trousers. Meghan paired the set with a £135 Veronica Beard brown belt and £370 Stuart Weitzman suede heels. She accessorised with Princess Diana 's £21,000 Cartier gold watch and a pair of gold gold £4,150 earrings from Taybayer. She then added her £7,000 Cartier bracelet and Bentley & Skinner diamond tennis bracelet - a gift from the King worth at least £4,900. The piece, which was first worn on the eve of her wedding to Prince Harry, was first created by royal warrant holders Bentley & Skinner, features ninety-two round brilliant-cut diamonds. Meghan left her long brown locks in loose waves around her face; her hair appeared to have a red tint to it, although it's unclear if she dyed it or if it appeared that colour because of the lighting. The As Ever creator was joined by Prince Harry, who looked sharp in a navy blue suit. Meghan has come under fire in recent months, facing backlash over both her new Netflix show and her lifestyle brand, As Ever. Her series With Love, Meghan - which saw her and a rolodex of her famous friends in the kitchen as they prepared elaborate recipes and created home décor items - premiered last month on the streaming service but was instantly met with negative reviews from critics and viewers alike. The launch of her company As Ever was mired in controversy as some customers were left disappointed after their orders were cancelled due to overselling. Meghan has tried to land an A-lister like Beyonce and Taylor Swift for her new female empowerment podcast, which is reportedly already in crisis after three episodes. 'No one's picking up the phone', one source close to the production claimed, adding: 'The show is not landing.' 'There's no Taylor Swift. No Beyoncé. Not even a Hailey Bieber. And when you're pitching female empowerment, that's a problem. 'It speaks volumes for her pulling power. She's not happy about her lack of appeal.' Meghan interviewed Bumble founder Whitney Wolfe Herd during the debut episode of her new Lemonada podcast, Confessions of a Female Founder. Her second instalment was with Reshma Saujani, founder of Girls Who Code, and Wednesday's episode was with her friend, hair colourist Kadi Lee, whose company the former Suits star has invested in. A source close to the making of the show said she and her team 'dialled all the big names' to join her for 'honest conversations with women who've built from the ground up, faced challenges and kept going.' But these calls have been quietly ignored, according to RadarOnline. So instead of household names or cultural icons, Meghan is now expected to speak to more friends, influencers and startup entrepreneurs, as she tries to get her own As Ever brand off the ground. Meghan and Harry's trip to New York came after they whisked their two children Archie, five, and Lilibet, three, away on a celebratory Spring holiday. According to People, the family enjoyed a 'sunsoaked getaway' recently, though the exact destination was not confirmed.

Becky Hill Brands Jack Whitehall a ‘Privately Educated Nepo Baby' After BRIT Awards Joke
Becky Hill has called out a joke made by Jack Whitehall at this year's BRIT Awards. At the ceremony earlier this month, host Whitehall called the singer 'Wetherspoons Whitney' – referring to the chain of affordable British pubs – on the assumption that she was less well-off because of her Midlands accent. 'It's an eclectic mix of nominees this year, from the soaring vocals of the Wetherspoons Whitney Becky Hill, to the atmospheric house of Top Jaw [in reference to the Instagram channel] with decks, Fred Again..,' said Whitehall, introducing the nominees for the dance act category. More from Billboard How Lady Gaga Managed to Conjure the Past & Look to the Future on 'Mayhem' Guns N' Roses Are Returning to India After 12 Years Ne-Yo Says Having Four Girlfriends Is a 'Beautiful Thing' Hill, who was born and raised in Bewdley, Worcestershire, called out the jibe via Instagram last night (Mar. 11). Posting to her stories, she shared a screenshot of a message pointing out the privileged backgrounds of various attendees at this year's BRITs. It was highlighted that Charli XCX – who scooped five awards that night – attended the £38,319-a-year ($50,206) Bishop's Stortford College, while producer of the year winner A.G. Cook went to the £27,747-a-year King Alfred's School ($37,472). Abigail Morris, lead singer of The Last Dinner Party, is an alumnus of Bedales, which costs £52,075 ($67,351) a year. The post also stated that Whitehall was educated at The Dragon School in Oxford, which has annual fees of £52,000 ($67,254). 'Imagine being called a 'Wetherspoons Whitney' by some privately-educated nepo baby who has a TV show with daddy the showbiz agent on national TV,' wrote Hill. 'My parents worked so hard to provide a middle class life for me, even tho [sic] they couldn't afford it, no one gave me a leg up, I wasn't near London so I couldn't go to the BRIT School. So if you associate a Midlands accent with a Wetherspoons that says more about the silver spoon in your mouth, jolly ol' boy.' In a subsequent post, she shared a selfie with a caption reading: 'Me and my working class attitude off to work today. Remember not to be out of touch today kids, even if ur [sic] daddy is rich. Shout out Jack Whitehall for the fuel to my fire.' Whitehall is yet to respond to her comments. Last week (Mar. 12), Billboard UK reported on the disparity in the music industry between those educated at state schools and those from private institutions, highlighting a 2024 report from the non-profit organisation The Sutton Trust. Their research indicates that best-selling musicians are six times more likely to have been privately educated than educated at a state school, and that the former take up more than half of enrollment at prestigious music conservatoires such as London's The Royal Academy of Music (60%) and Royal College of Music (56%). Hill, meanwhile, is scheduled to perform at the Formula 1 British Grand Prix at the iconic Silverstone circuit in Northamptonshire in July. She released her second studio album Believe Me Now? last year, which peaked at No. 3 on the Official U.K. Albums Chart.
