Sarah Ferguson is reportedly flirting with the idea of leaving Britain as old scandals and fresh scrutiny keep piling up. Australia is being floated as a possible bolthole — her sister lives there and is said to have flown in during what sources describe as a fragile stretch for Sarah.

Sources describe emotional arguments: Harry wants time with his father and a UK connection for the kids; Meghan wants nothing to do with the place that ate her alive.

Also in the mix: the chatter about William’s 2025 income and the jealousy narrative from the Sussex side, Kate’s upcoming Windsor reception for the R...

Explosive new claims reopen the darkest chapter of the House of York. Fresh reporting alleges Sarah Ferguson carried on an affair inside Prince Andrew’s private study — while he slept upstairs.

HOMETOWN PAPER VERDICT: Toronto Star labels Meghan "most disappointing celebrity of 2025"—columnist: "Despite having all the ingredients to become global success, she has slowly deflated." Source: "Most painful review Meghan has had because it comes from city that once gave her refuge and normality. It's shaken her confidence."

Sarah Ferguson is back in the headlines for all the wrong reasons — again. Reports claim Fergie sent desperate Christmas messages to senior royals, apologising for past scandals at a moment insiders say was wildly misjudged. We look at why those overtures landed badly, and why invoking regret alongside the Epstein saga only deepened Palace irritation. Then, a resurfaced email photographed on Jeffrey Epstein’s desk raises fresh questions about unpaid wages, money troubles, and why correspondence...

A disturbing new front in royal harassment: an AI chatbot tied to X is accused of generating sexualised images of the Princess of Wales from real photos, prompting “urgent contact” from UK regulator Ofcom. Meanwhile, the internet does what it does — a short clip of Prince William arriving at Kensington Palace with George and Charlotte ignites baseless “separate lives” speculation, plus a side quest into royal travel protocol and why heirs aren’t supposed to fly together.

Remember the As Ever “glitch” that supposedly exposed a mountain of product?

Then: Harry is reportedly working the phones to land celebrity support for his causes, with Jennif...
