Hot for Harry; mad for Meghan.

Over six years into their marriage, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are as loved-up as ever, according to a former colleague.

“They are so hot for each other,” one person who worked closely with them said in a Vanity Fair report published on Friday. “Like, you know how you meet those couples where you’re like, the way they’re looking at each other, I should probably not be here right now?”

That love is also on display in how Harry, 40, interacts with Meghan, 43, when the pair are in public and staring down the “circus” that engulfs them.

“He’s so protective of her because people are so nasty to her,” the insider added.

Not grool.

Meghan Markle has been dubbed a “‘Mean Girls’ teenager” by a former staffer who made new allegations in a bombshell exposé on the duchess and her husband, Prince Harry.

The report published Friday by Vanity Fair takes a look at the state of the couple’s personal and professional lives five years after stepping down from their roles as senior working members of the royal family. And according to unnamed sources, the couple did not always foster a congenial working environment.

One person who worked with Meghan, 43, on her “Archetypes” podcast at Spotify described the alleged experience with Meghan as “really, really, really awful” and “very painful.”

At the outset of their professional interactions, Meghan began warm, complimentary and encouraging, the source said. But went something didn’t go as she and Harry, 40, expected, the duchess, in Vanity Fair’s words, “would become cold and withholding toward the person she perceived to be responsible.”

The experience was “really, really, really awful. Very painful,” the source alleged to the magazine. “Because she’s constantly playing checkers—I’m not even going to say chess—but she’s just very aware of where everybody is on her board.”

“And when you are not in, you are to be thrown to the wolves at any given moment,” the former staffer claimed, which amounted to “undermining.”

A year ago today, the palace issued two shocking announcements that rocked the world - from across the pond and beyond.

First, Buckingham Palace announced that Kate Middleton had been hospitalized the day before for "planned abdominal surgery," while King Charles was set to undergo treatment for an enlarged prostate the following week.

However, a month later, on February 5th, the palace shared the news that King Charles was diagnosed with cancer and had begun treatment.

"During The King's recent hospital procedure for benign prostate enlargement, a separate issue of concern was noted. Subsequent diagnostic tests have identified a form of cancer," the palace said in their statement at the time.

And a month after that, on March 22, 2024, the Princess of Wales shared that she was receiving treatment for cancer, which had been detected after undergoing the abdominal surgery.

"This of course came as a huge shock, and William and I have been doing everything we can to process and manage this privately for the sake of our young family," Princess Kate said in the speech filmed in the garden of Windsor.

Fast-forward to September, and Middleton has since completed treatment.

“I cannot tell you what a relief it is to have finally completed my chemotherapy treatment,” Kate announced in a statement on X.

The Patriarch, meanwhile, is expected to continue treatment into 2025. Palace sources confirmed to The Post in December that “his treatment has been moving in a positive direction, and as a managed condition the treatment cycle, will continue into next year.”

It's a royal birthday celebration!

Mia Tindall, the granddaughter of Princess Anne, turned 11 years old on Friday.

Mia is the eldest daughter of Zara and Mike Tindall, who also share kids Lena, 6, and Lucas, 4.

Following the 2021 birth of their son, Mike described parenthood as a “massive shock” that altered his relationship with his wife.

“A marriage or long-term relationship can't always be roses and rainbows," he said during an appearance on the ITV talk show "Loose Women." “When you have children, that is a massive shock, change to your system that you've never experienced, and there is going to be those rocky roads.” 

The former Rugby player added, “There are things that are thrown at you that have to test both of you and that will test that relationship. The thing is no one is right, no one is wrong. You have to work through it together."

In 2023, Zara told People that her children have since been introduced to one of her passions: horseback riding. The family has been pictured supporting Zara at many equestrian events over the years.

Meg Bellamy has a dignified proposal.

The actress, who played Kate Middleton in the last and finale season of Netflix's "The Crown," thinks Meghan Markle should portray her younger self in any future series of the show.

"Only Meghan could do Meghan Markle justice," Bellamy told the Daily Mail Wednesday.

"Meghan is a great actress," the 22-year-old gushed about the Duchess of Sussex, who stepped away from acting before marrying Prince Harry in 2018.

As for playing the Princess of Whales? Bellamy quipped: "Kate is awesome."

Markle starred on "Suits," which aired on the USA Network, for seven seasons from 2011 to 2018. The series found a new fanbase when all episodes dropped on Netflix in June 2023.

These days, while the royal family member is no longer acting, Markle is still in the creative space.

She is set to launch a Netflix lifestyle series titled “With Love, Meghan," in which she'll be cooking and gardening alongside some cameos from her famous friends.

Prince Harry has reportedly declined an invitation to stay at Buckingham Palace during his upcoming trip to London. The Duke of Sussex, 40, is set to return to his home turf solo next week for the start of his trial against News Group Newspapers.

Ahead of his 5,459-mile-long trip, a source told the Mirror that Harry was offered a place to lay his head at the lavish royal residence, but turned it down.

What’s more, the father of two will be given “limited police protection” during his London visit, despite him being fully stripped of tax-payer funded security last year.

London’s Metropolitan Police Commissioner, Sir Mark Rowley, has since agreed to provide the duke with security protection via armed officers from the Royalty and Specialist Protection Command.

“He is offering Harry limited police protection,” a source told the outlet. “The Met has been trying to recruit officers on their days off because they don’t have a lot of spare staff.”

It’s currently unclear where the duke is planning on staying during the trip.

Prince William can be a regular guy too.

The Prince of Wales, 42, hung out with Aston Villa fans at a Wetherspoons pub in the centre of Birmingham, England on Wednesday.

William spent more than 30 minutes with the fans, who have Villa season tickets, before they went to the away match at Everton.

The dad of three wore a suit with a blue tie as he posed at the table with the fans.

Aston Villa beat Everton that night.

Prince William's latest engagement is on hold.

On Thursday, the Prince of Wales, 42, was set to visit families and servicemen and women at a military regiment where he holds a distinguished royal role.

But due to the weather, the trip to the Army Air Corps (AAC) regiment in Wattisham, Suffolk, was postponed. Kensington Palace said in a statement that the poor weather would have "significantly restricted the planned program."

"The Prince of Wales sends his sincere apologies to those who he had been due to meet and hopes to reschedule his visit at the earliest convenience."

William was suppose to arrive at the AAC regiment in Wattisham in a Wildcat Helicopter, as the chopper is critical for reconnaissance. The royal member was expected to meet teams training at the facility and speak to the armed forces members about the Corps' work.

Prince William is the Commander-in-Chief of the Army Air Corps, a title that his father King Charles assigned to him in May 2024.
