There is something that Princess Kate has adopted from the late Princess Diana, almost without anyone asking her to. That belief is the conviction that being the son of a prince doesn’t have to mean growing up in a bubble. Darren McGrady, a chef who worked for Diana from 1993 to 1997, makes this abundantly clear when he talks about what he sees in Kate today with her own children. The similarity is no coincidence. From clothing to upbringing, the Princess of Wales has shaped much of her parenting style by looking to her mother-in-law. The Saturday ritual that Diana…

After her trip to Almería, Queen Letizia returned to the Zarzuela Palace for a morning of audiences. She held three receptions in a row, all related to the healthcare sector. The first audience was with the Spanish Society of Palliative Care, followed by the team from the Cassandra Project for lung cancer screening, and finally, the European Leukodystrophy Association in Spain. It was a low-key day of work, but it sent a clear message about what the Queen prioritizes when she has full control over her schedule. Queen Letizia’s look at the Zarzuela Palace For these three meetings, Letizia wore…

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are returning to Australia. The last time they were there was in 2018, just five months after their wedding, during their extensive tour as working members of the royal family. Now, eight years later and living in California, they have confirmed a visit scheduled for mid-April. Their representatives’ statement mentions “private, business, and philanthropic commitments,” with more details to follow. Archie and Lilibet will not be on the trip. Why the Sussexes’ visit to Australia is already sparking controversy The announcement hasn’t been well received everywhere. A petition in Australia has already garnered several thousand…

Meghan Markle is facing her own challenges in California. The most recent one concerns her brand, As Ever, and Netflix. After a year of collaboration since the brand’s launch in March 2025, the platform and Meghan’s company have decided to part ways. The news was announced with friendly statements from both sides, but a question lingered: what really happened? What sources close to Meghan say about her departure from Netflix The official version is cordial. Netflix praised Meghan’s vision of “enhancing everyday moments in beautiful yet simple ways” and expressed happiness in helping bring it to life. As Ever expressed…

Time flies. When Princess Leonor began her studies at the Zaragoza Military Academy, the prospect of university seemed distant, almost abstract. But three years have passed, and she is about to complete her training in the three armies. Now, the question that hangs in the air is a concrete one: where will she study? With just three months until the pre-registration process begins, the issue is no longer speculation; it’s a decision that, if not already made, is very close to being made. The UAM, the most historically and symbolically significant option His father provided the most obvious clue. In…

Some looks are improvised, while others are planned with surgical precision. This was the second type. Princess Kate arrived in Leicester wearing a white Ralph Lauren midi dress, pleated at the waist for a flattering silhouette, and a matching bespoke coat by Chris Kerr. All white, all smooth. And it wasn’t a whim, as it was known from the start that her hosts would present her with a long pearl necklace adorned with nine roses, in keeping with Hindu tradition. That accessory could only shine against a light background. It would have disappeared against plaid or earth tones. The look…

Infanta Sofia is nearing the end of her first year at Forward College in Lisbon, where she is studying Political Science and International Relations. Princess Leonor’s younger sister began her studies in September, and the academic year concludes on June 5th, with spring break from April 3rd to 12th before the final exams. But before reaching that point, she must make a decision that will significantly shape her academic experience. What is this important decision? Well, the Infanta will have to choose between three certificates that the center itself offers as a complement to her degree. What are the three…

For years, the International Contemporary Art Fair (ARCO) has been one of those events where Queen Letizia allows herself some stylistic freedom. Last year, it was the red leather jacket everyone remembers. This time, however, the agenda took precedence over the wardrobe. King Felipe and Queen Letizia presided over the 45th edition of the International Contemporary Art Fair at IFEMA, but just hours later they attended a lunch at the Royal Palace with the Grand Dukes of Luxembourg, a strictly formal event. That explains why Letizia chose a look that worked in both contexts without needing to change. Queen…

Princess Kate arrived in Leicester wearing a cream-colored outfit—a matching jacket and dress—and before she could say anything, a necklace of red flowers had been placed around her neck. Her response was a “thank you” accompanied by a Namaste gesture with her hands, a small sign of respect that does not go unnoticed. The visit coincided with the celebration of Holi, the Indian festival of colors, love, and spring, and Kate joined the community that had been celebrating it in the city for days. A rather warm start to what was to come. Kate visits The Aakash Odedra Company in…

Harry and Meghan have been out of the royal family for six years, but their recent trip to Jordan felt like an official tour, as they visited a hospital, a youth center, and an organization dedicated to distributing food in crisis areas. They traveled at the invitation of the Director-General of the World Health Organization, Dr. Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, met with Jordanian leaders and senior health officials, and participated in a WHO roundtable. Why the trip is seen as a not-so-subtle message to the Prince and Princess of Wales Author and royal researcher Ingrid Seward offers an interesting take on…

Rumors had been circulating for months, but now there are images. Victoria Federica and Jorge Navalpotro appeared together at Paris Fashion Week, which in the royal world is tantamount to a public declaration. It was the first time they were seen as a couple at an event of that level, and their connection was evident. For months, there had been rumors that the daughter of Infanta Elena had been dating the owner of a famous concert hall in Madrid. What is known about Jorge Navalpotro? Jorge Navalpotro is no stranger to Madrid, although he has so far managed to stay…

Prince Harry’s long-standing lawsuit against Associated Newspapers, the publishing group behind The Daily Mail, reached a tense moment in the High Court this week. The 41-year-old Duke of Sussex claims that several articles published between 2001 and 2013 about his private life were made possible by the interception of voice messages. In total, their lawsuit concerns 14 articles. Harry is not alone in this; he is also suing the group, including Sir Elton John and his husband, David Furnish, among others, alleging that journalists hired private investigators to listen to calls, hack voicemails, and obtain private records through illegal methods.…
