    'BLINKERED!' Is Prince Harry 'INFLAMING' royal tensions? | Palace Confidential

    On this unmissable episode of Palace Confidential, the Daily Mail's Royal Editor Rebecca English reveals Prince Harry's attempt to come back into the fold with a visit to see King Charles at Sandringham later this year. She also claims that the King's upcoming trip to see President Donald Trump at the White House is a 'diplomatic minefield'. Meanwhile, Richard Kay, the newspaper's Senior Editor-at-Large, questions Buckingham Palace's use of the phrase: 'On advice of His Majesty's Government'. Does this suggest that the monarch would rather not be meeting President Trump amid growing global tension? The panel also discuss a new book by biographer Hugo Vickers that revealed who the REAL third in Charles and Diana's marriage was, as well as the secret illness Prince Philip was battling in the final years of his life.

    'APPALLING!' New row over Prince Harry & Meghan Markle's security | Palace Confidential

    'Project Thaw' was the name given to a so-called PLOT to bring Prince Harry and Meghan Markle back into the royal family, Richard Eden claims that there is 'new momentum' behind this movement, as the likes of Boris Johnson and Tina Brown call for Harry to return and friends criticise the 'spiteful' deal over their UK security. Any return will be complicated, argues the Daily Mail's royal editor Rebecca English, because of 'trust' and the fact that they'll be 'half-in, half-out' - the petition over their planned visit to Australia is an example of this. Speaking of trips, we discuss our Palace Confidential poll which asked should King Charles pull out of his trip to the US? AND what is behind the story that Sarah Ferguson discussed CLONING the late Queen Elizabeth's CORGIS for a reality TV show? Meanwhile the panel also talk about Prince William finding a 'quiet' faith, King Charles pulling Rebecca a pint, and why a sword was needed to cut a cake.

    WILLIAM THE ENFORCER! How Prince dealt with Andrew | Palace Confidential

    Prince William's admission that he was 'not in a calm state' while out with Catherine at the Baftas had everyone thinking the same thing: that the stress of the situation with the former Prince Andrew was causing problems in royal households. This came after an article by Richard Kay and Robert Jobson that suggested it was Prince William who had become the family's 'enforcer' - pushing his father to act tough on Andrew. Our panel - the Mail's Richard Eden and Robert Hardman - discuss this and many of the other 'tawdry' allegations about Andrew - including the claims that he expensed MASSAGES to the British government - that are emerging from the Epstein files and elsewhere. These have brought more calls for the King and Parliament to further censure the former duke by taking him out of the line of succession. Richard Eden thinks that they need to go further and remove Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie from it too. Meanwhile royal biographer Robert Hardman answers some of your constitutional questions and gives his reasons why the royals will survive this 'knife edge' moment. PLUS - Is Prince Harry & Meghan Markle's trip to Jordan a sign of an establishment 'plot' to let them back into the royal fold? - Why were William and Catherine in Wales? - What were the security reasons that Sophie, Duchess of Edinburgh's trip was kept quiet? - Who were the couple in lycra who came to visit Queen Camilla this week?

    Royals split? Is Prince William at odds with family over Andrew treatment?

    The problem of the man formerly known as Prince Andrew, now Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, continues to be a thorn in the side of King Charles. Not only is there the issue of his living arrangements, but there have been more suggestions that not everyone in the family is happy with the decisions the King has taken, particularly when it comes to his title. On the one side, so the reports say, are Andrew's siblings Prince Edward and Princess Anne and on the other Prince William and Princess Catherine who take a firmer line. While everyone is discussing where Andrew and his ex-wife Sarah Ferguson live, and the future of his daughters Beatrice and Eugenie, we ask, WHAT IS HAPPENING TO THE CORGIS?

    'UNPLEASANT!’ Prince Harry’s Invictus move is ‘awkward' for King Charles

    The report that Prince Harry would ask King Charles to open his Invictus Games has upset our royal experts. Richard Eden says the whole thing feels 'unpleasant', Richard Kay believes the King could be being 'bounced' into the decision by his son, while Rebecca English says the whole thing feels 'distasteful' when the focus should be on the veteran competitors in the games. The panel also discuss reports that Harry sees himself spending more time in the UK and what that might mean for his security. Plus, our team explain why Prince William and Princess Catherine have hired a CRISIS specialist to join their communications team. The latest on the ex-Prince Andrew's move to Sandringham. AND we wish Sophie, Duchess of Edinburgh a happy birthday with one of our world-famous montages.

    'SINISTER!' Prince Harry's security move shocks our experts

    Kicking off 2026 with a bang, our panel of experts discuss if a new change means that Harry and Meghan's security will be funded by the British taxpayer. Sources in the Sussex camp certainly seem to think so... PLUS Richard Kay theorises what would happen if the Duke of Sussex were to become an Internationally Protected Person (IPP). Will American taxpayers have to fork out? And what would President Trump, who is no fan of Meghan Markle, have to say about it? AND Rebecca English explains why the former Prince Andrew could find himself homeless. We also wish Princess Catherine's a very happy 44th birthday with one of our world-famous montages. And discuss how Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis fared in the royal walkabout at Sandringham.
