Harry considering UK return as Kate’s holiday plans revealed – Royal family news live

“Charles believes Harry should let bygones be bygones for the sake of Archie and Lilibet, but he senses that access to the children is being used as a bargaining chip and that, in Charles’ view, is unforgivable,” royal author Tom Quinn told the Mirror.

This comes after Prince Harry said he will not bring Meghan Markle to the UK without having their taxpayer-funded security reinstated because he fears “an acid or knife attack”.

Following the opening of a new art exhibition supported by Prince William’s homelessness charity Homeward, Kensington Palace has described art as a “powerful tool” for those experiencing homelessness.

The exhibition is located in London’s Saatchi Gallery and will run until 20 September.

Kensington Palace wrote on Twitter/X: “Art can be a powerful tool to help those with lived experience of homelessness, enabling people to share what happened to them and recover from the trauma of their experience.”

The Prince of Wales is expected to attend the exhibition, which will feature artworks by those who have experienced homelessness.

Cressida Bonas was in a relationship with the Duke of Sussex, 39, for two years between 2012 and 2014 after they were introduced by Princess Eugenie.

The pair had an amicable split and Ms Bonas even attended Harry’s 2018 wedding to Meghan Markle.

Her sister, Pandora Cooper-Key, 51, has posthumously been credited with raising awareness of several types of cancer.

Ms Bonas wrote alongside a series of pictures of her with her sister: “I’ll look for you in the markets where we walked arm-in-arm. Amongst the ancient trees, I’ll talk and ask them where you are. I’ll find you in the expression of a Pekingese, in pots of honey, pretty hats and in the eyes of your two boys,” she wrote.

“I’ll hear you say things like, ‘I’m happy as a tick,’ and ‘I think you’re mad as a goose.’ I’ll search for your humor, even on the darkest days. When courage is needed, I’ll call for you, hoping you’ll come by. I’ll seek you in the mountains you fearlessly climbed and skied.”

Kate Middleton and Prince William ‘s relationship was “unwittingly” revealed by William’s ex-girlfriend during a game of “Never Have I Ever”, a new biography has claimed.

Royal author Rob Jobson wrote that while the romance was initially “shrouded in secrecy” “a revealing moment occurred during a dinner party with friends attended by Carly Massy-Birch [William’s ex].”

This is a popular game that sees participants reveal the things they have and have not done, drinking to signal that they have done whatever has been said.

“Perhaps unwittingly, Carly exposed William’s secret love affair with Catherine, much to the prince’s chagrin,” Jobson explained.

The Princess of Wales has been praised for her “very clear” decision to parent her children in the way she sees fit as a member of the royal family.

Royal author Rob Jobson told Hello! magazine: “With her children, she made it very clear to both the late Queen and to the Prince of Wales, as he was – now the King – that she’s not going to be rushed into doing things that she doesn’t necessarily want to do.”

He added: “That takes quite a lot of courage, because you’re in a very alien world.”

Reported to feature the late monarch’s favourite flowers, work will begin on the new space in London’s Regent’s Park later this year.

Andrew Scattergood, chief executive of The Royal Parks, said: “The approval of planning permission marks an exciting step forward in the creation of the new garden, which is designed to be a tranquil space for reflection, accessible to all.

“It provides a serene escape from the city’s hustle and bustle. This site will add two acres of biodiverse parkland for everyone to enjoy and explore.”

The memorial garden is scheduled to open in 2026.

Harry and Meghan’s latest trip is designed to “illuminate Colombia’s role as a beacon of culture and innovation.”

Royal expert Richard Fitzwilliams told The Sun: “I think when you have former senior working members of the Royal Family do what the Royal Family would like to do, I do think it will create difficulties. Because the problem is that the Sussexes are so unpredictable.

“The problem with the Royal Family at the moment is that they are simply not able to do something which attracts attention on the same level – and attention is important if you’re royal.”

A birthday fundraiser set up for the “rejected and abandoned” Thomas Markle has raised almost £52,000.

The GoFundMe was set up by British socialite Lady Colin Campbell to show the Duchess of Sussex’s father that “there are still people in the world with good hearts, good values, and good intentions.”

Mr Markle, 80, has been estranged from his daughter Meghan, who recently turned 43, since around the time of her 2018 wedding to Prince Harry. He has never met Prince Archie and Lilibet.

At the time of writing, the GoFundMe has raised £71,977 from almost 3,000 supporters.

The newly restored maze is located in the grounds of Sandringham, Norfolk, and recently opened to the public.

The maze’s completion was announced by Sandringham Estate in a post that read: “Following His Majesty The King’s vision to bring horticulture to the fore in the Gardens, August sees the completion of ‘The Lower Maze Garden’ – an intricate new maze garden celebrating formal geometry and cosmological symbolism.”

The new exhibition, which the heir to the throne will visit, will open at the Saatchi Gallery in London today (7 August), and it is hoped it will shed new light on what life on the streets is really like.

Mick Clarke, chief executive of homelessness charity The Passage, said: “What I love about the Reframed exhibition is this gives an opportunity again to put a spotlight on how we’ve got to get homelessness away from something society thinks is inevitable and something that we manage, to something that can be prevented from happening.”

In a bid to eradicate homelessness, the Prince of Wales created the Homewards project.
