Prince Harry mentioned in his memoir Spare how his sister-in-law, the Princess of Wales, emailed his newlywed wife Meghan Markle after she first participated in the 2018 Trooping the Colour, and it seems awkward that she responded.

It’s just days before one of the biggest events in the royal calendar – Trooping the Colour. It sees all the royals out in force for the annual Sovereign’s Birthday Parade followed by them Firm appearing on the Buckingham Palace balcony.

In recent years, spots on the balcony for the RAF flypast have been reserved for working members of the monarchy only – however, this wasn’t always the case. And before quitting as working royals and carving out a new life in the United States, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle were regulars at the major event. Meghan’s first appearance was in 2018, just weeks after she tied the knot with Prince Harry in a fairytale ceremony in Windsor Castle.

However, Meghan attempted to make fun of her sister-in-law Kate in Harry’s controversial memoir, Spare, but it was met with a “yawning silence.”

Meghan stood proudly next to her new husband, who was dressed in his military uniform, at the same time as the other woman who was wearing a baby pink dress and matching hat. And Meghan was spotted conversing with Kate, William, and Camilla, according to Harry, who claims things were much more awkward in the background.

Harry claims that Meghan responded to Kate’s question, “Colourful,” when they returned inside after they had stepped back inside. A yawning silence, according to Harry, threatened to engulf us all.

The Sussexes did not attend Trooping the Colour the following year, but the rest of the royals have since left. And it seems like Meghan will attend a significant event this year on the same day as Trooping.

In order to promote community wellbeing, she will be the guest of honor at a museum’s Night of Wonder in the US.

The Natural History Museum in Los Angeles will host other famous people as they transform the space into an enchanting nocturnal garden. Live music and installations from the LA landscape and the surrounding area will be featured at the event, and guests will be treated to a farm-to-table dinner prepared using ingredients from the museum’s nature gardens.

The Office of Prince Harry and Meghan stated that the duchess’s desire to promote community wellbeing and uplift young women “dovetails with the museums’ approach to connecting community and science by creating meaningful educational experiences that empower young minds.”

Among the programmes shared on the website of their charity, the Archewell Foundation, is The Welcome Project, where Meghan focuses on addressing “the social isolation recently resettled women experience around the world and building more inclusive and connected communities”.

Our equity-focused approach to developing science literacy for the next generation, including through our Stem and Steam Pathways programs, aligns with our honorable Meghan, Duchess of Sussex, a native Angeleno, said NHMLAC’s president and director Lori Bettison-Varga.

OK! Kerry Katona, a columnist for the magazine, claims she’s finally “back on track” and that her long-time friend Katie Price has been in the spotlight since their joint upcoming tour was postponed.

Katie Price and Kerry Katona have had a rocky relationship ever since they bonded in the I’m A Celeb jungle in 2004. But last week, fans were wondering if the famous friends had fallen out again.

According to reports, Katie, 47, who is the mother of Harvey, 23, Junior, 19, Princess, 17, Jet, 11, and Bunny, 10, pulled out of their joint tour due to childcare concerns, leaving her “gutted” and her travel plans “up in the air.”

Following the abrupt announcement, however, some worried fans questioned if there was more going on than childcare logistics and whether the pair had actually fallen out with each other.

One person remarked, “Kerry, wake up.” One writer wrote, “Only pulled out because no one bought tickets; she’s using you like she does everyone else.” Another person responded, “Who persuaded her that this was a good idea in the beginning?”

A source told new! about fans’ concerns that the pair had a fight. Kerry, 44, has been understanding despite being disappointed in her magazine. Our source claimed that Katie and Kerry have previously had disagreements and occasionally had feuds, but they always come back together.

They have a rocky relationship, according to the report. Kerry is now showing some kindness toward Katie because she is aware that she has recently experienced a difficult time. She comprehends it. She only wants to assist her, but it leaves her disappointed.

Kerry was looking forward to making up for lost time with them on this tour by doing that once more. They are now forced to go their separate ways because it’s devastating for them that they have been torn apart by these forces.

However, Kerry, who is the mother of Molly, 23, Lilly, 22, Heidi, 18, Max, 17, and Dylan-Jorge, 11, revealed to the media that the 33-date show has not been completely canceled. She and Katie would just be “rejigging” some of the dates. She added that comments had been “blown out of proportion.”

She said, “The tour is still going on, of course it is.” We may have to rejig some of the dates because of Katie’s childcare problems, but that’s all we have to say.

A source claimed that there were no guarantees the tour would be rescheduled, and that Katie had left last week. She [Katie] apologises to her fans and hopes to do something similar in the future, according to a source close to The Sun newspaper.

“At the moment, it’s unclear whether Kerry will continue without her or if the whole tour will be scrapped.” The planned show, An Evening With Katie Price & Kerry Katona is set to kick off in Ellesmere Port on 11 September, running until 23 October, where it is due to end in Hull. At the time of going to press, tickets for the tour were still on sale.

It comes on the back of the duo’s successful panto run last Christmas, in which they both played the wicked stepsisters in a production of Cinderella. Following Kerry’s split from fiancé Ryan Mahoney last November, she and Katie spent Christmas together and appeared to be closer than ever, after what has been a rather tumultuous friendship.

Both rising to fame in the late 1990s and early noughties, the two have known one another for more than two decades and appeared alongside each other in the third series of I’m A Celeb, which Kerry went on to win. After striking up a close friendship in the jungle, Kerry was even a bridesmaid at Peter Andre and Katie’s lavish wedding the following year.

However, things turned sour a few years later when they got into a public dispute, with Katie calling Kerry a “druggie” and calling her husband, Mark Croft, a “bully” at the time. After several months, Kerry revealed that Katie had apologized and had buried the hatchet.

She apologised for remarks made about Mark in the past. Kerry, who ended up divorcing Mark in 2011, added that she wanted to give him a second chance. However, things didn’t stay cordial for long as Kerry later made remarks criticizing Katie’s parenting prowess.

Kerry said that I should get a peg or two about negative things about me. In response to the comments, Katie responded, “I thought that was really unnecessary because I hadn’t been saying anything negative about her.”

It was reported that Katie and Kerry reconnected after Kerry split from Mark. The pair has experienced numerous ups and downs since then, but they still seem to have a mutual understanding.

Heidi and Princess, Katie’s eldest child, and Heidi’s daughter Kerry have a close relationship. We’ve actually been friends since I was a baby, Heidi said in 2020 when we were “sisters”. A belly photo was done by Mom and Kate together. Sister From Another Mister is Princess’ phone number on my phone. “

Gemma Collins, the former The Only Way Is Essex star, has shared a health update despite having battled the virus for almost a month. She is adamant about sticking to her work obligations.

Gemma Collins has said that she feels like she’s ‘dying’ as her vital Pneumonia battle enters its fourth week. The former TOWIE star, 44, was struck down with the debilitating illness almost a month ago and has been struggling to breathe since.

On Wednesday, a bedridden Gemma took to Instagram to share an update about her health, revealing that she had been seriously unwell for a number of weeks. In her post, which included a photo of the reality TV star laying in bed, she wrote: “Hey guys sorry been quiet i have Pneumonia. I’m not as fast or on it as I usually am on the daily. I am still honouring my work commitments which is taking every bit of energy I have but will be back entertaining you all soon.”

Gemma also disclosed a second update to her Instagram Story that claimed she had been seen and being treated via a drip. The much-loved TV star was diagnosed with pneumonia, an infection-like pulmonary inflammation that is typically present in people. Infants, the elderly, and those with heart or lung conditions are at a higher risk of severe illness and may need hospitalization, compared to the majority of recoveries in two to four weeks.

Luckily, Gemma has not had to go to hospital, but speaking to The Mirror, she admitted that she feels as though ‘she’s dying’. “Because the Pneumonia is viral, no antibiotic is going to help me. I’ve been really short of breath and obviously I have work commitments that I would never not turn up to. I’m old-school, I would always fulfill my work commitments.

I’ve had it for more than three weeks and my doctor prescribed steroids to me. “It’s shocking. I had to take them to DJ Fat Tony’s wedding to get past that, but now that I’m off, the sickness is returning. I normally have a lot of energy and I’m always enjoying life, but now I’m really tired and feel like I’m dying. “

Gemma’s doctor, thankfully, has now revealed that she will have her final chest scans this weekend, and that she is now through the worst of it. I’m praying that I’ll soon be back on track as soon as the doctor visits my home.

Gemma has tried her best to slow down and recover from her crippling health battle the past month, but she admits that it’s not in her blood to do so. I have two weeks off before I can get a proper rest because I have one more job this weekend and two more weeks to go. But I’m not comfortable with it. I’m just one of those people who must be working at all hours, and I feel so bad about it.

When Gemma announced her health woes earlier this week, fans and famous friends alike rushed to wish her well in the comment section. “You giving us all so much energy and good vibes! Get your rest! Wouldn’t want anything to happen to you,” X Factor legends Jedward told their close pal. EastEnders and Celebrity Big Brother star also shared her love by leaving Gemma a love-heart emoji under her post.

Gemma is putting together an exciting event that she will be hosting alongside Trainline today at King’s Cross station in London despite the fact that her body requires the most of its possible rest. SlayStation, the glam stop of dreams, will be introduced by the GC liaison to help fans get off to a great start on their Big Night Out journey.

SlayStation from Trainline will be available before fans head out on their big nights out, whether it be for a last-minute touch-up, a photo-ready refresh, or just to get you in the mood. Professional hair, makeup, and glam artists will be present, along with accessories to match up your look and selfie opportunities set against an Instagram backdrop.

On June 7th, SlayStation will launch at King’s Cross Station.

Coleen and Wayne Rooney have had some rollercoaster times in their marriage – but as they prepare to celebrate their 12-year anniversary, a source claims they’ve ‘never been stronger’

Wayne and Coleen Rooney were photographed looking more down in the dumps than loved-up on a pre-anniversary dinner date last week – but a source tells new they couldn’t be happier. The power couple tied the knot on 12 July 2008, with the priest stating that the future would have its “pleasures and pains, its joys and sorrows”.

Truer words were never spoken as the couple, both 39, have since found themselves embroiled in public cheating scandals, brushes with the law, shock job losses and, of course, the famous Wagatha Christie court battle with Rebekah Vardy. “They’ve had a lot of heartbreak and troubles,” our source said.

“Wayne has put his hands up and apologised for his fair share of them but they’ve made it through it all – a lot of people thought they wouldn’t. The Wagatha court case was another drama but it actually brought them closer together. Wayne was so supportive and that really meant a lot to Coleen. At the moment, their marriage has never been better or stronger.”

Over the years, the childhood sweethearts, who met on their local Croxteth estate as young teens, have remained united, if a little bruised at times. Former Manchester United ace Wayne was the trigger for most of the dramas, which started with allegations of him having a threesome behind Coleen’s back when she was pregnant with their firstborn son, Kai, in 2009.

He was then charged with drink-driving in 2017 after being pulled over by police with fellow party-goer Laura Simpson in the passenger seat beside him. Shortly after the arrest, Coleen took to Facebook to deliver a lengthy statement about her marriage, and declared defiantly she would be “fine on her own” with just her children.

“But I don’t want to live like that,” she continued. “I want to try and continue our marriage and live as a family because that’s what I want to do. I know my own mind and it’s something I want to try and work on… Yes, it has been a s**t time.”

But that wasn’t the last of their so-called s**t times, as the I’m A Celebrity runner-up puts it. They found themselves at the centre of another storm recently when a video published on X led to speculation about Wayne returning to his wayward ways. The heavily-edited clip was filmed in the Devon apartment Wayne lived in during his short-lived tenure as Plymouth Argyle manager, and showed a tracksuit-clad man, believed to be Wayne, letting a woman inside the front door.

However, Wayne wasn’t prepared to ignore the accusations, and released a statement on Instagram defending himself against the rumours and denying any wrongdoing. Over the years, even Coleen, who shares sons Kai, 15, Klay, 12, Kit, nine, and Cass, seven, with Wayne, has admitted there were some who doubted she would – or should – get over her public heartache.

In their bombshell Rooney documentary that aired in 2022, she tackled the topic of their lowest moments head on, and confessed she’d learnt to block out other people’s opinions.

“When you’re making those decisions you’ve got to focus on what you want and not other people because” she said, “you have so many people saying different things to you. ‘Oh, why is she getting back with him?’ “Obviously, I listen to the people that matter to me, my mum and dad; they’ve always given me a positive outlook on things.”

Last year, Coleen had her own positive moment in the spotlight when she was voted into second place on I’m A Celebrity. She was reportedly one of the series’ highest paid stars, and didn’t disappoint during her three weeks in the jungle. Viewers loved seeing a less polished and often hilarious version of the mum-of-four, who said afterwards she’d had “so many people coming up to me and saying that they understand my life”.

Speaking on the Stick To Football podcast earlier this year, shortly after Wayne left his role as Plymouth manager, Coleen also addressed the doubts about her marriage, saying, “People are so opinionated, but I’ve always thought that it’s my life, so let me get on with it – it’s got nothing to do with anyone else.”

According to our source, the pair remain unshakeable and will continue to weather the storms that come their way. “They’ve honestly been through so many ups and downs but Coleen has loved Wayne since she was 16. It’s a love that can’t be broken and they’re really happy to be celebrating their anniversary in such a great place.

“They’ve got a wonderful family and, despite everything, have managed to remain in love and strong after all these years. Coleen couldn’t be happier they’ve made it through and is now glad she always stuck with it.”
