Every once in a while, a newspaper article finds it worthwhile to report that the current Prince of Wales, Duke of Cornwall, aka Prince William, and the former, that is the now King Charles, have a lot of diverse opinions regarding many things and the reality is that it’s sadly affecting their working relationship.
Just this year, reports surfaced that William had employed Princess Diana’s divorce lawyers to further split from his father’s legal team. At the time, it was speculated that William made the move with the intention of charting his own path and creating a modern monarchy that is free of his father’s influence.
Despite this, Prince William has just revealed that he is “keen” on continuing his father’s work. I guess even if they don’t agree on everything, they still know how to put on a united front.

Prince Harry is considering changing his family’s surname.
Prince Harry has spoken with his uncle Charles Spencer about taking his late mother, Princess Diana’s, surname – trading out “Mountbatten-Windsor,” the surname used by his children, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet, for “Spencer.”
Prince Harry and his uncle, the 9th Earl Spencer, who is the younger brother of the late Princess Diana, allegedly discussed the possible name trade-out, but Prince Harry was informed that the legal challenges would be too difficult.
A source told The Daily Mail, “They had a very amicable conversation and Spencer advised him against taking such a step.”
Although both Archie and Lilibet’s birth certificates list ‘Mountbatten-Windsor’ as their surnames, the family uses “Sussex” as their last name. In an interview with People, Meghan Markle explained what “Sussex” has come to represent: “It’s our shared name as a family, and I guess I hadn...

The Crown season 5, episode 6, "Ipatiev House", is another Philip-centric episode in the series, though Queen Elizabeth has plenty to contend with regarding her family's past and her own troubles in the present. The Crown season 5 sees a new actress as Queen Elizabeth as the timeline moves into the 1990s. This is a slightly different Queen Elizabeth than viewers were used to seeing. She's wiser and stronger, but at the same time, increasingly nostalgic and perhaps more human as she looks back on her life and the history of her family, warts and all.
As season 5 progresses, The Crown's question of where the Monarchy fits in the modern world becomes even more urgent.

Monarchists in Australia have accused state leaders of snubbing King Charles as he makes his historic visit to Australia this week.
King Charles Made a Personal Sacrifice To Halt His Cancer Treatment And Visit Australia
The King, who has made a tremendous personal sacrifice by putting his cancer treatment on hold to make sure the long-anticipated six-day visit will occur, has been treated very rudely by the Australian Republic Movement.
The visit is being dubbed the “Monarchy Farewell Oz Tour.” His Majesty’s visit, starting later this week, will include a reception in Canberra.
However, the six State Premiers, including Tasmania, Southern and Western Australia, New South Wales, Victoria, and Queensland, have opted not to welcome the King at the special reception despite the tour being organized months ago.
“I find it insulting,”
Exclaimed Bev McArthur of the Australian Monarchist League.

On September 16, two years ago today, King Charles led his siblings to carry out the Vigil of the Princes at Westminster Abbey.
Queen Elizabeth’s Vigil Of The Princes Was The Third Ceremony Of Its Kind
Charles, Princess Anne, Prince Andrew, and Prince Edward stood surrounding their late mother’s coffin for ten minutes as her body lay in state. Princess Anne made history as the first female to participate in the ceremony.
Slowly and in unison, they turned outwards. The Queen’s four children turned outwards. They were silent and motionless as they bowed their heads.
This was the four siblings’ final ceremonial tribute to the monarch, their mother, and the Queen. It was the third ceremony of its kind ever. The Vigil of the Princes is relatively new compared to other royal traditions. The royal tradition dates back to 1936, after King George V passed.

British Royal Family: What’s Next For Prince Andrew Once King Charles Boots Him Out The Royal Lodge?
King Charles will inevitably kick Prince Andrew out of The Royal Lodge as that day is quickly approaching. Last year, it became apparent that the Duke of York could not keep up with the maintenance of the 30-bedroom mansion, as the building needed significant repair.
Andrew Will Have To Move Into A More Modest Home
King Charles recently withdrew his funds for Andrew’s private security. Unless he can come up with the financial resources necessary to fix and maintain the home’s damages, the Duke of York will need to vacate The Royal Lodge with his ex-wife, Sarah Ferguson.
The question remains: what options are available to Andrew? We know His Majesty suggested his brother move into Frogmore Cottage, the former home of Prince Harry and Meghan, but he wasn’t too thrilled with that idea. He doesn’t want to downgrade to a smaller residence.

King Charles is the current reigning monarch. Queen Elizabeth was the reigning monarch for over 70 years. Her Majesty wore the crown for longer than any other British ruler.
The Way The Order Of Succession Works
Some may be surprised at how the line of succession works. Succession drops to the firstborn child of the successor and their children. This “chain” is trailed by the next oldest sibling of the inheritor and their children.
This progression is why, for example, Prince William’s children are in the line of succession ahead of Prince Harry and why Harry’s children are ahead of Prince Andrew.
If William and Kate Middleton had another child, that girl or boy would bring Harry down further in the line of succession.
In the simplest terms possible, the line of succession is the order in which royal family members fall in line if the reigning King or Queen passed on.

"Rrr" was the biggest cinematic event of 2022, a movie that had people spontaneously dancing in theater aisles, and a movie that gave us a better friendship in three hours than the "Fast & Furious" franchise has in ten movies.
Director S.S. Rajamouli, who had already built his career on making epic movies like "Magadheera" and the two-part "Baahubali," which combined myth and reality with stunning action and a massive sense of scale, dialed up the maximalism in every way with "Rrr."
The film follows two storylines that merge, tracking Bheem (Jr. Ntr), a warrior looking for a young girl who was kidnapped from his village, and Raju (Ram Charan), an officer in the British Army tasked with finding Bheem before he can wreak havoc on the British Raj. Though on opposite sides of the conflict, the two men quickly strike a beautiful friendship -- one strong enough to take down entire empires.

The entertainment world recently lost one of its best performers, Michael Gambon, who passed away at the age of 82. Gambon was best known for being the second actor, after Richard Harris, to play Albus Dumbledore in the Harry Potter films.
Gambon will be best remembered for his portrayal of Dumbledore, but the actor also had a brilliant career outside of Harry Potter. He is considered one of the greatest British actors of all time, and his impressive filmography and stage career validate that point.

Michael Gambon, the Irish-English actor best known for his role as Hogwarts headmaster Albus Dumbledore in six of the “Harry Potter” movies, has died, Variety has confirmed. He was 82.
“We are devastated to announce the loss of Sir Michael Gambon,” his family said in a statement. “Beloved husband and father, Michael died peacefully in hospital with his wife Anne and son Fergus at his bedside, following a bout of pneumonia.”

He played two real kings of England: King Edward VII in “The Lost Prince” (2003) and his son, King George V,...

In a new video shared on the Sorted Food YouTube account, the Prince of Wales used the opportunity to promote his Earthshot prize and the recent winners of the competition — geared towards promoting climate activism.
William first appeared in the 14-minute video in the beginning, when he brought in three items created by previous winners of the Earthshot prize competition for the hosts of the web series, Benjamin ‘Ben’ Ebbrell, Michael ‘Mike’ Huttlestone, Jamie Spafford and Barry Taylor, to use in order to create an environmentally-friendly burger.

Less than two months after his official coronation, King Charles III is getting busy on YouTube. The monarch of the United Kingdom has debuted a new channel for his environment nonprofit, Re:tv.
