Prince Nikolaos of Greece ties the knot with Chrysí Vardinogiánni at Athens church just months after divorce

By Carly Ortiz-Lytle

Prince Nikalaos of Greece married for the second time on Friday, just months after his divorce from Princess Tatianna was finalized. 

The third son of Greece’s last king, Constantine II, was joined in holy matrimony with Chrysí Vardinogiánni at the Church of Agios Nikolaos Rangavas in central Athens, surrounded by family and friends. 

Nikolaos’ engagement to Vardinogiánni, the daughter of a Greek shipping magnate, was announced on January 22. The couple were first spotted together leaving a memorial service for the late King Constantine II days prior.

Royal families from around Europe made a strong showing at the ceremony, with Queen Anne Marie of Greece’s sister Princess Benedikte of Denmark and sister-in-law Queen Sofia of Spain in attendance.

Prince Andrew School changes its name to drop ‘controversial ties’ with disgraced duke

By Nika Shakhnazarova

Prince Andrew has been dealt a fresh blow as a high school named after him has announced that it will be changing its name to distance itself from the disgraced duke’s controversies.

The Duke of York, 64, has found himself in hot water on numerous occasions in recent months, prompting his own family members to distance themselves from him as a result.

Now, Prince Andrew School, the only high school located in St Helena, a British Overseas Territory in the south Atlantic Ocean, is keen to be free from Andrew’s “controversial ties.”

“The school believes a neutral name will foster a positive and forward-thinking learning environment, free from contentious associations,” St Helena’s government said of the decision in a statement.

It said that changing the school’s name is vital to maintain its values, which were mired by the former working royal’s recent setbacks.

Anne — and King Charles’ only sister — is said to have been injured by a horse during a stroll on the grounds of her Gatcombe Park estate in June 2024.

Princess Anne’s husband, Laurence, as well as her daughter Zara Tindall and son Peter Phillips, were all on the estate at the time of the incident.

As a result, Anne — the late Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip’s only daughter — canceled all of her official duties that week, including a state visit, and a trip to Canada.

Prince William opens up about his ‘most painful experience’ of childhood grief: ‘Very difficult’

By Nika Shakhnazarova

Prince William said he found it extremely difficult to focus on school and normal life as he opened up about his childhood grief.

The Prince of Wales, 42, this week paid a visit to Child Bereavement UK — a children’s bereavement charity in Widnes, England, of which he is a patron.

The future king spoke about losing his mother, the late Princess Diana, at the young age of 15. She died in a car crash in August 1997 at the age of 36 while fleeing photographers in Paris.

“Sometimes the hardest thing about grief is finding the words for how you actually feel,” William said, according to the Daily Mail.

“It’s crucial for those first few years, particularly, [that] you have support like this… It’s got you in your practice, how to help yourself.”

“The mind gets focused on one thing, doesn’t it? It’s very difficult to do school and normal life,” he went on.

Fans spot never-before-seen photo of Prince Harry, Meghan Markle and their kids, sent with private Christmas Card

By Sarah Ng

Eagle-eyed fans have spotted a never-before-seen photo of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle with their children — on a side table in Gloria Steinem's home. 

Architectural Digest profiled the famous feminist's New York space in December, and now two months later internet sleuths are pointing out a new photo of the Sussexes displayed on a side table in Steinem's living room.

The picture was sent only to family and friends, tucked inside the family's private 2023 holiday card, according to People.

The newly spotted black-and-white portrait depicts the couple with son Archie, now 5, and daughter Lilibet, now 3, lying down in the grass.

Harry and Meghan sent out two different cards this past holiday season. On the one accessible to the public, a family photo showcased their children, Prince Archie, and Princess, along with their dogs.

Kate Middleton pairs up with 5-year-old girl on field trip who has no idea she's a princess — see the adorable pics and video

By Sarah Ng

The Princess of Wales shared a cute moment with a young girl while accompanying a group of All Souls CE Primary School students to the National Portrait Gallery on Tuesday.

Grace, the lucky 5-year-old, walked hand in hand with Kate Middleton, unaware that she's the future queen. To the youngster, she was simply "Catherine" on the field trip, executive headteacher Alix Ascough said.

Combatting these issues are "vitally important," William wrote on X.

"I love farming as well, and I'm conscious that it's an area that needs a little bit of support and understanding," the prince said in the X video, asking the group for feedback on feeling supported despite rural isolation.

"Mental health is "not talked about as much" in the farming world compared to other sectors, William said. "And yet we know it exists, isolation and mental health is all there."

Prince William makes appearance at Child Bereavement UK 

By Sarah Ng

Prince William spent time Wednesday with children coping with the loss of loved ones — to whom he can certainly relate after the tragic death of his mother, Princess Diana, when he was only a teenager.

After visiting the Child Bereavement UK charity, the future king shared on X that it's "the charity's busiest service in the UK, supporting children and young people up to the age of 25 when someone important to them has died or is dying, as well as supporting parents and wider family through baby loss.

"It is such important work," he wrote from his and wife Kate Middleton's verified Prince and Princess of Wales account.

Prince William felt ‘uncomfortable’ with Meghan Markle’s ‘constant hugging’: palace staffers

By Nika Shakhnazarova

Prince William felt increasingly “uncomfortable” with Meghan Markle’s “constant hugging,” according to a new report.

The Duchess of Sussex, 43, leaned in for a friendly embrace each time she saw the Prince of Wales, 42 — a stark contrast in tactility the royals are used to at home.

During her short-lived time in the Firm, which ended in 2020 when she and husband Prince Harry quit royal life and moved to the US, tensions began to grow between the two brothers over Markle’s warm and friendly approach, The Times reports.

“Meghan hugged [William] virtually every time they bumped into each other,” the report read, citing palace staffers.

The difference in cultures “deepened the rift between the brothers,” the outlet adds, as staffers fueled the rumor mill by false claims she was “flirting” with the prince.
