00:00:03.200 --> 00:00:14.679
Calorogus Shark Media. Hello, welcome to Palace Weekly. I am
2
00:00:14.720 --> 00:00:17.679
your host, Mark Francis. By the way, this show is
3
00:00:17.719 --> 00:00:19.839
just a recap of all these stories you heard on
4
00:00:19.839 --> 00:00:21.640
Palace Intrigue during the week, and if you want the
5
00:00:21.760 --> 00:00:25.600
longer versions, please go back and listen to the daily additions.
6
00:00:25.960 --> 00:00:28.640
And if you want more info on today's Trooping the
7
00:00:28.800 --> 00:00:32.640
Color event, check out the early show that dropped called
8
00:00:32.679 --> 00:00:36.359
Palace Intrigue for Sunday and that we'll have more details
9
00:00:36.359 --> 00:00:39.960
about Trooping the Color. Moving on, Megan apparently thinks to
10
00:00:39.960 --> 00:00:42.119
work gate is going great, while the reaction in the
11
00:00:42.200 --> 00:00:44.840
UK has been mixed at best, with many commentations calling
12
00:00:44.880 --> 00:00:48.439
it undignified. Sources close to the Duchess told The Daily
13
00:00:48.439 --> 00:00:51.679
Mail that Megan is very pleased with the outcome and
14
00:00:51.799 --> 00:00:54.439
inside it claims in the UK everyone's reaction has been
15
00:00:54.479 --> 00:00:57.840
a bit prudish, but everywhere else, particularly in America and
16
00:00:57.920 --> 00:01:00.520
especially with young people, it has been a huge, huge hit.
17
00:01:01.079 --> 00:01:03.960
The source also suggested the video served its true purpose
18
00:01:04.120 --> 00:01:07.239
promoting her commercial ventures. She and her team count the
19
00:01:07.319 --> 00:01:09.519
video as a win, which can only be a boost
20
00:01:09.560 --> 00:01:12.560
for sales. Her new products are marketed at Americans and
21
00:01:12.640 --> 00:01:16.239
not at the UK Market. The Duchess of Sussex is
22
00:01:16.239 --> 00:01:20.920
reportedly preparing to trademark the as Ever named for hospitality services,
23
00:01:20.959 --> 00:01:25.239
signaling plans that could include boutique hotels, restaurants or temporary
24
00:01:25.560 --> 00:01:29.400
lodgings where guests would experience her curated esthetic first hand.
25
00:01:30.120 --> 00:01:32.640
According to Filing's, the trademark could cover the provision of
26
00:01:32.680 --> 00:01:37.079
food and drink alongside overnight accommodations, potentially offering guests an
27
00:01:37.159 --> 00:01:41.439
immersive experience featuring as Ever products and dishes inspired by
28
00:01:41.519 --> 00:01:44.640
Megan's Netflix series With Love Meghan. While the Duchess has
29
00:01:44.680 --> 00:01:47.959
not confirmed specifics, she has spoken publicly about her passion
30
00:01:48.000 --> 00:01:50.879
for hosting, once sharing that one of her favorite activities
31
00:01:51.159 --> 00:01:53.840
is prepping guests rooms with sweet touches to make them
32
00:01:53.920 --> 00:01:57.400
feel at home. The Daily Mail made out day with
33
00:01:57.480 --> 00:02:01.120
an analysis of Lillibert's birthday cake, past huge birthday cake
34
00:02:01.120 --> 00:02:04.120
and to one with an ariial figurine Disney's famous red
35
00:02:04.159 --> 00:02:07.719
haired Mermaid perched regally atop the confection. Whilst in most
36
00:02:07.799 --> 00:02:10.360
this might appear a charming nod to a children's classic,
37
00:02:10.639 --> 00:02:12.800
others believe it harks back to one of Megan's most
38
00:02:13.000 --> 00:02:16.840
memorable public comparisons, likening herself to Princess Ariel during her
39
00:02:16.840 --> 00:02:20.919
twenty twenty one sit down with Oprah. In that explosive interview,
40
00:02:21.000 --> 00:02:24.560
Meghan revealed she saw striking parallels between her own journey
41
00:02:24.800 --> 00:02:27.080
and that of the Little Mermaid, saying, I was sitting
42
00:02:27.080 --> 00:02:29.360
in Nottingham Cottage and the Little Mermaid came on and
43
00:02:29.400 --> 00:02:31.080
I went, oh my god. She falls in love with
44
00:02:31.120 --> 00:02:33.280
the prince and because of that she loses her voice.
45
00:02:33.400 --> 00:02:35.680
She then pointedly at it, but in the end she
46
00:02:35.719 --> 00:02:39.680
gets her voice back. Apparently, Meghan is BOSSI, and the
47
00:02:39.719 --> 00:02:41.680
way you can tell is by looking at her feet.
48
00:02:42.039 --> 00:02:46.759
Celebrity foot reading expert Jane Sheehan, a professional reflexologist and
49
00:02:46.759 --> 00:02:50.599
foot reader who analyzes personality through the toe shapes and positioning,
50
00:02:50.840 --> 00:02:53.479
has examined photographs of the Duchess of Sussex's feet to
51
00:02:53.599 --> 00:02:58.039
decode her behavioral patterns. Using images of Megan in nude
52
00:02:58.240 --> 00:03:03.240
colored sandals, claims to have identified several key personality markers.
53
00:03:03.639 --> 00:03:07.000
According to the experts assessment, Meghan's foot structure indicates strong
54
00:03:07.080 --> 00:03:10.759
leadership instincts and a genuine desire to assist others. However,
55
00:03:11.000 --> 00:03:13.919
she hand warns there is a potential downside to these qualities.
56
00:03:14.120 --> 00:03:17.280
When she's not in a leadership position, she could become controlling,
57
00:03:17.759 --> 00:03:21.759
she had explained, suggesting that Meghan's natural inclination toward authority
58
00:03:21.840 --> 00:03:26.800
might manifest negatively when she lacks official power. Kate Middleton,
59
00:03:26.879 --> 00:03:29.639
the Wonderful Princess of Wales, made her first public appearance
60
00:03:29.919 --> 00:03:33.000
since the half term break, visiting the newly opened VNA
61
00:03:33.159 --> 00:03:37.479
East Storehouse in East London, though her outfit choice created
62
00:03:37.520 --> 00:03:41.800
an unexpectedly awkward moment, Princess Catherine, wearing a Sheik Navy suit,
63
00:03:41.800 --> 00:03:44.319
found herself in the embarrassing situation of wearing exactly the
64
00:03:44.360 --> 00:03:48.759
same color as her host, Doctor Tristram Hunt, the VNA's director.
65
00:03:49.080 --> 00:03:52.759
The Mentro Navy ensembles created an unintentionally coordinated look as
66
00:03:52.759 --> 00:03:57.439
they two of the groundbreaking cultural destination together at a

it and impassioned address warning that the world's oceans aren't
69
00:04:03.560 --> 00:04:06.560
diminishing before our eyes and urging immediate action to halt
70
00:04:06.599 --> 00:04:10.240
their decline. Speaking at the Blue Economy and Finance Forum,
71
00:04:10.360 --> 00:04:13.680
an event convened ahead of next week's un Ocean's Conference
72
00:04:13.759 --> 00:04:16.720
in Nice, Prince William told attendees that nations must take
73
00:04:16.759 --> 00:04:20.079
bold action to protect and restore our planet, calling upon
74
00:04:20.120 --> 00:04:24.399
both environmentalists and investors to step up. We will stand
75
00:04:24.399 --> 00:04:27.680
to be impacted, the Prince said. We're all responsible for change,
76
00:04:27.839 --> 00:04:31.519
both negative and positive. Prince William will keep up his
77
00:04:31.600 --> 00:04:34.199
exhausting schedule next week in Norwich, where he'll team up
78
00:04:34.199 --> 00:04:37.000
with actress Kate Blanchett for a visit to color Fix,
79
00:04:37.279 --> 00:04:40.680
a twenty twenty three earth Shot Prize finalist. The biotech
80
00:04:40.759 --> 00:04:44.480
company has developed a sustainable dying process that replaces harmful
81
00:04:44.560 --> 00:04:49.079
chemicals with nature inspired DNA sequence to color The visit
82
00:04:49.120 --> 00:04:51.360
will include a full tour of the company's lab, showcasing
83
00:04:51.360 --> 00:04:54.839
how the team transforms natural pigments into fabric safe dyes
84
00:04:54.959 --> 00:04:59.439
using microbes and fermentation. Color Fix's process significantly reduces water
85
00:04:59.560 --> 00:05:03.279
energy use, making it a standout in the Earthshot Prize category.

87
00:05:12.279 --> 00:05:15.279
A striking new report suggests King Charles will likely die
88
00:05:15.360 --> 00:05:19.399
with cancer, but not of it, confirming persistent speculation that
89
00:05:19.439 --> 00:05:23.240
the monarch's illness, while being actively managed, is ultimately incurable.
90
00:05:23.839 --> 00:05:26.839
The report, published by Camilla anotomony of The Daily Telegraph
91
00:05:26.879 --> 00:05:30.040
notes that although Charles seventy six has resumed the full
92
00:05:30.120 --> 00:05:32.879
royal schedule with some modifications, he will never reside in
93
00:05:32.879 --> 00:05:37.000
Buckingham Palace as originally intended, due to ongoing health concerns.
94
00:05:37.160 --> 00:05:39.639
The revelation is likely to cause discomfort within the Palace,
95
00:05:39.920 --> 00:05:42.920
which has maintained an optimistic tone about the King's health.
96
00:05:43.079 --> 00:05:46.000
Officials have repeatedly emphasized that his Majesty is on the
97
00:05:46.000 --> 00:05:48.519
other side of his treatment, and indeed Charles's made a
98
00:05:48.600 --> 00:05:53.040
visible return to public life in recent months. King Charles
99
00:05:53.040 --> 00:05:56.279
received a warm Lancashire welcome and a nip of nostalgia
100
00:05:56.399 --> 00:05:58.319
as he made his first official visit to the county
101
00:05:58.399 --> 00:06:01.519
since ascending the throne. The monarch, who also holds the
102
00:06:01.560 --> 00:06:05.560
title the Duke of Lancaster, met with cheering crowds, school children,
103
00:06:05.639 --> 00:06:09.199
local business owners and one unforgettable centenarian. Among those he
104
00:06:09.279 --> 00:06:11.759
greeted was one hundred one year old d Day veteran
105
00:06:11.879 --> 00:06:14.560
Richard Brock, whom the King recognized from a previous visit
106
00:06:14.600 --> 00:06:17.199
to Normandy. You are fantastic, Charles told him at a
107
00:06:17.199 --> 00:06:20.759
reception at Lancastic Castle, before offering a jovial health tip
108
00:06:21.279 --> 00:06:25.959
keep drinking whiskey. One lest Cat and William never lead
109
00:06:26.040 --> 00:06:28.480
is the hardest working Royal, a title that almost always
110
00:06:28.480 --> 00:06:31.120
goes to Princess Anne. In a surprising turn of events,
111
00:06:31.120 --> 00:06:34.600
the Royal family's traditional work champion has been dethroned and
112
00:06:34.639 --> 00:06:37.439
the new leader is fighting more than just a packed schedule.
113
00:06:37.959 --> 00:06:40.439
New data reveals that King Charles has become twenty twenty
114
00:06:40.439 --> 00:06:44.160
five's most active Royal, completing an extraordinary workload that has
115
00:06:44.240 --> 00:06:47.680
left even his famously industrious sister Princess Anne trailing behind.
116
00:06:48.240 --> 00:06:52.120
The figures show a remarkable shift in the family's internal dynamics,
117
00:06:52.519 --> 00:06:54.519
with the seventy six year old Sovereign refusing to let
118
00:06:54.560 --> 00:06:58.639
his ongoing cancer treatment slow his pace. Between January and
119
00:06:58.720 --> 00:07:02.160
late May, Charles's tackle nearly two hundred and sixty official duties,
120
00:07:02.240 --> 00:07:04.759
an impressive feat that represents roughly twenty five percent of
121
00:07:04.800 --> 00:07:08.439
the entire Royal family's collective engagements during that same time frame.
122
00:07:09.000 --> 00:07:11.600
This puts him significantly ahead of Princess Anne, who has
123
00:07:11.639 --> 00:07:17.839
dominated the hardest working Royal rankings for decades. A podcast
124
00:07:17.839 --> 00:07:21.399
episode featuring criticism of Meghan Markel has been quietly scrubbed
125
00:07:21.439 --> 00:07:25.120
from the Internet following intense public reaction. India Hicks, who
126
00:07:25.120 --> 00:07:28.199
serves as King Charles goddaughter, found herself at the center
127
00:07:28.240 --> 00:07:31.560
of controversy after hosting Hollywood actress Brooks Shields on her podcast.
128
00:07:32.120 --> 00:07:34.800
During the conversation, the sixty year old actress shared an
129
00:07:34.800 --> 00:07:37.480
anecdote about an encounter with the Duchess of Sussex that
130
00:07:37.519 --> 00:07:41.000
painted Meghan in an unflattering light. Hicks has now completely
131
00:07:41.079 --> 00:07:44.839
removed the controversial video from her website. The deletion suggests
132
00:07:44.879 --> 00:07:48.000
the god daughter of the King recognized the potential diplomatic
133
00:07:48.040 --> 00:07:53.720
complications her platform had created. Sir Sadik Kahan has officially
134
00:07:53.720 --> 00:07:56.079
received his knighthood from King Charles, who, according to the
135
00:07:56.120 --> 00:07:59.800
London Mayor, apologized for taking so long to bestow the honor.
136
00:08:00.120 --> 00:08:02.399
The ceremony took place at Windsor Castle on Tuesday, with
137
00:08:02.600 --> 00:08:05.439
Sir Sadik saying he was very chuffed that he managed
138
00:08:05.439 --> 00:08:08.839
to personally give me this honor. The knighthood recognizes Kahn's
139
00:08:08.839 --> 00:08:12.279
service as the capital's mayor since twenty sixteen. Growing up
140
00:08:12.279 --> 00:08:14.639
on a council estate in Tooting, I never imagined I'd
141
00:08:14.680 --> 00:08:17.600
one day received this great honor while serving as Mayor
142
00:08:18.040 --> 00:08:20.959
Khan later wrote on social media, it's a truly humbling
143
00:08:20.959 --> 00:08:24.480
moment for myself and my family. And there you have it.
