On Sunday and Monday, much of the world
watched as the Duke and Duchess of Sussex gave a tell-all interview

fact-checking and responses as more clips are shared afterwards.
Emotions are running high, and people on all sides of this are
shouting their thoughts from the rooftops. However, I would argue
that the American…

The Royal Family has turned into the world’s worst soap opera – it is an embarrassment to the UK and Commonwealth
4th March 2021
If you turn on the news, you might be
mistaken into thinking you are accidentally watching an episode of
EastEnders when the latest report about The Royal Family makes it

up a list of celebrities who I was hoping would come out in support

For decades, many have painted the
Duchess of Cornwall as a villain cast opposite of Diana’s hero. It
is past time for that narrative to stop. I was struck by how the
Duchess is being, again, painted as the villain while watching the
latest series of The Crown. We…
Should the Duke of Cambridge have kept his positive COVID-19 results private?

It has recently been announced that the
Duke of Cambridge tested positive for COVID-19 back in April,
shortly after it was announced that the Prince of Wales had also
contracted the virus. Prince Charles was the first British royal to
contract the virus and decided to…
This weekend, the wrong York announced
that they would like to take on official royal duties. That’s

later with the announcement that…
