Princess Charlotte is said to like ballet.

If Harry and Meghan want to visit Nigeria, or anywhere else, that's their business. It just seems rather ironic that someone who said he hated going on formal visits abroad and couldn't cope with media attention is going on a formal visit abroad and courting media attention. Funny, that ...

Agreed! I can't see that anyone here is "dangerous" to Harry and Meghan, but I'd rather they weren't here, unless they were bringing the children to see the King.

https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-68922333.amp Sophie visited Ukraine today. This is a significant moment in Anglo-Ukrainian relations, the first visit to Ukraine by a member of the Royal Family since the war began.

The test will have shown that 47% of her DNA matched DNA generally found in Nigeria. These tests do seem to be pretty accurate. There've been TV programmes in which people who were adopted, or never had any contact with one side of their family, e.g. people born from wartime relationships in...

Almost all historians agree that this is very unlikely to be true.

Nice to see the pictures of the King with Rafa, in what'll probably be Rafa's last tournament in Spain 😓.

That sounds very positive indeed!

I'm so glad they released this. The photos for the children's birthdays are normally released to the press the night before. I don't know why this one was late, but there was speculation that they'd decided to stop releasing the photos after that ridiculous row over the Mothering Sunday...

That seems a sensible decision, given his age and health issues.

Jam is wonderful stuff, but is best eaten on scones, with cream. There's no residency requirement as regards the law of succession.

I once bought a book which had a limited print run, so my copy had a number. This was many years ago, and I've still got it, although I've got no idea whether or not it's worth anything. If you buy a limited edition coin from the Royal Mint, I think you get a certificate with a number...

I'm disgusted that it's 90% and not 100%. Why should £50,000 of public money have to be wasted on Harry's ridiculous court case?

https://www.telegraph.co.uk/world-news/2024/04/11/canadian-parliament-breaks-into-god-save-the-king/ Canadian MPs have defeated a Private Member's Bill to remove the oath of allegiance to the King. MPs then sang "God Save The King". :) .

https://www.hellomagazine.com/royalty/517280/king-felipe-shares-update-queen-sofia-hospital/ Queen Sofia has been hospitalised with a UTI. They can be quite problematic in elderly ladies, but hopefully it's nothing serious.

It's nice to hear some good news for a change!

That's a shame. They seemed so good together.

Edward and Sophie are doing a brilliant job. This was a big occasion. French Republican Guards taking part in the Changing of the Guard at Buckingham Palace, and the Coldstream Guards doing the same at the Elysee Palace! It's the first time ever that troops from a non-Commonwealth country...

Yes, they do. It's a "thing" in the UK that footballers visit children in hospital in the run up to Christmas, and the kids always say how excited they were to meet their heroes. Likewise, kids always say how exciting it was to receive a visit from a member of the Royal Family. I doubt that...

Sophia would have taken control! She probably wouldn't have gone for the westernising policies which Peter did, but I think Russia was a sleeping giant and would eventually have taken her place in European politics anyway.

He looks very well. Good to see.

She said that there was cancer present. I would assume that it was removed during the surgery, but that preventative chemo is being given in case a few cells escaped. The Queen received posters for Catherine from well-wishers yesterday...

There aren't that many of them: they just make a lot of noise. They've said that they wish the King and Catherine all the best and that they're protesting against the institution, not the individuals, blah-di-blah-di-blah, but I think it still looks like bad form to be protesting under the...
