Prince William jokes Princess Charlotte will 'probably poach' friendship bracelet he received in Estonia

By Alexandra Bellusci

Prince William knows his daughter has good taste.

The Prince of Wales said that his only daughter, Princess Charlotte, 9, may try and swipe the piece of jewelry he received while on a royal tour.

Prince William was in Estonia for an official visit on Thursday and made a stop at The Freedom School, founded in May of 2022 by the country's Ministry of Education and Research in response to the war in Ukraine.

William was presented with a friendship bracelet made by students while there.

"My daughter will probably try and poach it off me later. She loves these friendship bracelets," the Prince of Wales said as the yellow and blue band was placed on his wrist.

"Thank you very much, I like the Ukrainian colours. Thank you, that's very kind," the royal said in the clip posted on X by royal reporter Rebecca English.

Princess Charlotte is no stranger to the bracelet game, as she rocked a string of them on her wrist while at Wimbledon with her mom Princess Kate and aunt Pippa Middleton in July. Prince William himself was also spotted wearing one with beads that spelled "Papa" on a trip to South Africa in November.

The popular trend has been associated with Taylor Swift fans — which Charlotte is, as she attended the super star's concert in June with her dad and brother George.

At the show, the trio smiled for a selfie with Swift backstage.

Meghan Markle, Prince Harry ‘have to keep Netflix on board’ as contract end date looms: expert

By Nika Shakhnazarova

Meghan Markle and Prince Harry must do what they can to keep Netflix on board as their $100 million contract with the streamer is set to expire later this year.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex signed a lucrative deal with the streaming giant in 2020 after quitting royal life and moving to the US.

But following the release of “With Love, Meghan” earlier this month, official viewership numbers showed that the the eight-part cooking series brought in substantially fewer views than their 2022 docuseries, “Harry & Meghan.”

According to prominent royal commentator Richard Fitzwilliams, the duo must keep their partnership with the streamer afloat as they reach crunch time.

By Nika Shakhnazarova

King Charles had some words of encouragement for fellow cancer patients as he continues to undergo treatment for his own illness.

The monarch, 76, paid a visit to the Pharmacy and Pharmacology Department of Ulster University's Coleraine, Northern Ireland on Thursday.

As he met with patients at the facility, Charles -- who was diagnosed with cancer in February 2024 -- was heard saying, "What’s that Winston Churchill saying? Keep buggering on."

"You just have to push on, don’t you," the monarch went on, adding that the facility's research is "amazing" after being shown around the building.

The Prince of Wales is currently in Estonia where he donned combat fatigues and rode in a tank as he joined British troops on a field exercise.

Meghan Markle is giving fans a sweet glimpse into her family life.

The Duchess of Sussex took to Instagram on Thursday, the first day of spring, to share a strawberry-picking snap of her and Prince Harry's son Archie, 5, and daughter Lilibet, 3. Although you can't see the youngsters' faces, viewers can see one holding a basket of the berries, with another pair of little feet in the background.

“We love a theme,” Markle added alongside a shot of matching green drinks.

Kate Middleton and Meghan Markle's rare Welsh gold  wedding ring available in sale

By Alexandra Bellusci

A piece of Kate Middleton and Meghan Markle's bling could now be yours.

Their wedding rings - which are made from Welsh gold - were given to the royal family decades ago, and now the mine it comes from is selling the rare medal for the first time in over 20 years.

On Wednesday, Alba Mineral Resources announced that three pure gold "Tyn-y-Cornel" coins from the Clogau-St. David’s Gold Mine in Bontddu, Wales, will be up for grabs in an auction at the end of the month.

It's been a tradition for British royal brides to use this Welsh gold for their wedding bands for over 100 years. The custom started with Queen Elizabeth when she married King George VI in 1923.

Her daughters, Queen Elizabeth and Princess Margaret, carried on the tradition as did Princess Anne and Princess Diana years later.

King Charles also used Welsh gold for Queen Camilla's wedding band in 2005, and both, Prince William and Prince Harry followed in suit.

Prince Harry detailed carrying the "thin band of Welsh gold" Prince William had made for Kate Middleton on their 2011 wedding day, in his 2023 memoir, "Spare," saying his older brother "shaved off a hunk given to the royal family nearly a century before."

"The same hunk had provided a ring for Granny when she married, and for Princess Margaret, but it was nearly exhausted now, I’d heard," Prince Harry penned. "By the time I got married, if I ever got married, there might be none left."

Kate Middleton and Prince William are 'happy for people to see them be touchy-feely' 

By Alexandra Bellusci

Kate Middleton and Prince William aren't shying away from some PDA.

The couple are still as in love as ever, 14 years after tying the knot in 2011 and welcoming three kids, Prince George, 11, Princess Charlotte, 9, and Prince Louis, 6.

First, the Prince and Princess of Wales posted a sweet snap on Valentine's Day to Instagram, where William is holding Kate's hand and kissing her on the cheek.

The two simply captioned the shot with a red heart emoji.

And during a recent trip to Wales, the royal family members held hands while out and about. Days later, on March 10, Kate and William attended the Commonwealth Day service at Westminster Abbey and were photographed leaning into one another as they passed sweet glances and laughter.

"They are happy for people to see them be touchy-feely," royal expert Ingrid Seward told People. "They’re in a different phase of their life now. William is very protective and very proud of her for coming through this and carrying on with her life."

 Kate returned to her royal duties a year after she revealed her cancer diagnosis. 

"William and I have been doing everything we can to process and manage this privately for the sake of our young family," the Princess said after revealing the news in March 2024.

Her message also expressed gratitude to her husband: "Having William by my side is a great source of comfort and reassurance too," she added. "As is the love, support and kindness that has been shown by so many of you. It means so much to us both."

Meghan Markle suffers another US Patent Office snafu as she fails to sign crucial document

By Nika Shakhnazarova

Meghan Markle has suffered yet another trademark snafu after she failed to sign a crucial document in her application for her impending lifestyle brand, As Ever.

The Duchess of Sussex, 43, revealed last month that she had renamed her brand from American Riviera Orchard to As Ever after a slew of trademark woes — but it seems as though the mishaps keep haunting her yet-to-be-released brand ahead of its official launch.

In documents obtained by The Post, the “Suits” alum has been questioned over her application by the US Patent and Trademark Office.

The USPTO told her that she must clarify what she means by “various items” in her description of inventory, including “spoons, serving jams and fruit preserves.”

The former working royal has also been told to list goods “by their international class number” — something she allegedly failed to do.

Kate Middleton and Prince William’s last 5 years have been ‘a nightmare’: royal historian

By Nika Shakhnazarova

Kate Middleton and Prince William are now stronger than ever.

From 2020 to 2025, the couple has been faced with a slew of challenges that have threatened to rock the foundation of the monarchy.

Recent years have seen the deaths of Prince Philip and Queen Elizabeth II take place, as well as Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s departure from royal life.

Their shock exit — and subsequent move to the US — was closely followed by a string of vicious, tell-all projects, causing further hurt to members of the Firm and resulting in total estrangement.

But arguably, 2024 brought the toughest challenge to the current monarchy so far, as both King Charles III and the Princess of Wales, 43, were diagnosed with cancer.
