0:44 A Saw says this is Kate's worst nightmare. Charles is trying to keep lines of communication open with his son and daughter in law, but Kat is far more cautious. Charles believes things can improve and has never stopped hoping that the family will heal, but Kate and Prince William remained deeply wary after years of private family matters becoming public. Kate's because concern isn't Megan coming back to Britain. It's what comes with it. Kate worrying is about history repeating itself once they're back inside palace walls and privy to private moments. Keith thinks it's dangerous territory because she feels the Sussexes could worm their way back in. She feels they've all paid a very high price over the last few years. She's cautious about giving them access again when there are still unresolved feelings. She wouldn't be surprised if it was some sort of trap, and the timing couldn't be more delicate. According to Close Up, there is also a speculation that Megan could attend Wimbledon if her longtime friends Areena Williams is competing or attending the tournament. The unnamed source claims Wimbledon is very close to Kate's heart, but she's already dreading it. People around Kate think Meghan is fully aware of the position this puts her in, and there could be more than just tennis balls flying across the court if the Duchess makes an appearance. Megan won't share her plans in advance or arrange her schedule around what works best for Kensington. Palace. If she wants to support Serena, she will. The two women could end up in close proximity in the palaces. Handling the situation very carefully, they don't want any misunderstandings of anybody claiming they were snubbed. We've learned even more about Kate's unbelievable mountain climbing journey of twenty three miles. The Princess of Wales made a personal donation to an eleven year old
2:15 boy she met while completing her three Peaks challenge, and in doing so revealed the low key name she sometimes uses online. Catherine donated to the just Giving page of Ted Haslin, a young boy from Sutton Coldfield who was pushed and carried up Ben never Was by a team of friends and relatives, including his father Paul. Rather than using her full royal title, the Princess made the donation under the name Katherine Wales. Kate chose to keep the amount of private, though The Daily Mail reports it was believed to be one thousand and two thousand pounds. Ted has now raised more than fourteen thousand pounds for Molly Ollie's Wishes, a charity that supports children across the UK with terminal and life threatening illnesses. On the just giving page, Catherine wrote, one of the real highlights of the three Peaks challenge was meeting in aspiring people like you along the way. She added huge congratulations to the entire team for raising money for such a wonderful cause and signed it s. The Princess met Ted on ben Nevis during her own challenge to claim the highest mountains in Scotland, England and Wales within twenty four hours after approaching, and Catherine joked about the weather, saying how are you doing? Ted?
3:20 You're not too cold? She added, so many people that stood in their T shirts? Why are they doing that? Who's this? Is that? Your lucky masco on? Has he got a name? We told the mascot represented Molly Olly's. Catherine asked Ted have you been up here before? Ted replied never, It's my first time. Katherin said, well, it's such a shame you can't see any of the views. She then told him I'm so impressed. Really, you've made it to the second peak. Super well done. We'll be cheering you on. Hopefully we'll see you on snowed and good luck. Ted's team completed the three Peaks Challenge in thirty hours. Ted was left paralyzed at the age of three after being diagnosed with an aggressive spinal tumor. Katheryne completed her own challenge in aid of the Royal Marsden Cancer Charity, covering twenty three miles, claiming more than ten thousand feet and traveling more than four hundred and sixty miles between the three peaks. Kensington Palace said is believed to be the first time a member of the royal family has completed the national Three Peaks Challenge. Andrew made a rare public appearance attending the Sandringham horse driving trial to support his sister in law, Sophie, the Duchess of Edinburgh.
4:23 According to reports, Andrew kept well out of the spotlight, watching from a quiet area beneath the trees, before leaving shortly after Sophie completed her event. One onlooker told the Sun Andrew sneaked in and sneaked out and definitely didn't want to be seen. But I saw him leave the field at ten thirty am, just after Sophie had ridden her around, and I saw Edward walking towards his car smiling. Shortly afterwards, Sophie was competing in the Sand Driving ham Challenge, an event that tests the skills of carriage drivers, their grooms and passengers. Competitors adjudged on the presentation of their horses and carriages before completing a series of driving challenges, including a figure eight course at a timed root. Meanwhile, Meghan announced that as Ever's new Lavender honey is now available alongside a fresh release of the brand's orange blossom honey.
5:09 Describing the new product, Megan quarter a floral gift of summer, adding that is softly floral with a delicate warmth that lingers beautifully or palaceing just a moment.

Royal commentator Tom Sykes believes the Duke and Duchess of are on the verge of what he describes as a significant return to the royal family. Writing in his Royalist Newsletter, Sykes argues that Harry Meghan's expected visit to Britain is not simply another family trip, but the beginning of what he calls megson is termed for gradual reintegration of the Sussexes into royal life. He writes this could be the beginning of a full structural reintegration of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex into the royal family, driven by the King in defiance of his heir, against the wishes of the British public, and in the face of everything that has happened over the past six years. Daily Mail journalist Alison Bouschoff argued that the King has effectively accepted a new arrangement with the Sussexes. Bauchoff's reporting suggests Harry and
6:41 Meghan would be able to continue their commercial careers in the United States whilst still being welcomed as members of the royal family whenever they are in Britain. Sykes summarizes their position this way, free to flog jam and make speeches for cash when they are in America, but treated as cherished members of the royal family when in the UK. This is an absolutely jaw dropping surrender by the King, essentially giving Harry and Meghan much of what they wanted, with the only condition being that they don't conduct any commercial activity when in the UK. I saw I was told the Daily Mail. The conversations started in January. Harry said that he wanted to come over with Megan and the kids for Invictors and propose that the Palace could support them. The view was that it would have to ensure that all of the family part of the visit remained private. He agreed to that in a heartbeat. The way he has conducted himself since then has led to confidence in this new version of Harry. He has changed a lot since max it. He has grown up. And there you have it.
