Prince Harry's Surprise UK Visit, Meghan's latest business idea and Happy Anniversary King Charles

0:03 Calarogu, Shark Media, Hedllo and Welcome through Palace Intrey Game in host Mark Francis. Prince Harry has been seen in Britain for the first time in over six months as he arrived at London's Royal Courts of Justice to attend the appeal hearing in his ongoing legal battle over police protection. Wearing a dark suit and tie, the Duke of Sussex appeared composed as he waived waiting reporters, but declined to answer questions, including whether he had spoken with his father, King Charles. The two day appeal hearing comes after Harry challenged the twenty twenty decision by the Executive Committee for the Protection of Royalty and Public Figures known as RAYVACK, which downgraded his publicly funded security. Upon stepping back from full time royal duties and relocating to California with his wife, Megan Markle, Harry was noticeably absent from the wedding of one of his oldest and dearest friends, Lord Charles Vivian over the weekend, despite being back in the UK. Lord Vivian wed Sweda Kamara at Chelsea Old Town Hall in London in what was described as a private but joyful affair. Among the guests was a notable absence. When asked by The Daily Mail whether Harry had been invited, the groom confirmed, I don't know. He has a lot on Vivian attended Harry's wedding to Meganacle in twenty eighteen and has been a trusted friend and supporter through numerous charitable ventures, particularly in Africa.

1:33 His absence from such a personal milestone and Vivian's life will undoubtedly raise eyebrows, particularly given Harry's presence in the UK at the time. Harry's visit knocked both Megan's podcast and the King's trip to Italy off the top of the news cycle. We recapped episode one of Meghan's podcast in a bonus episode you will find earlier in this feed. The state visit of Their Majesty's King Charles the Third and Queen Camility, Italy began with full fanfare, in ceremonial precision for which the Italians are renowned, a striking tribute to the deep historical and diplomatic ties between the two nations. The morning began at the Quirinali Palace, where the King and Queen were officially received by President Sergio Mattarella and his daughter Laura Mattarella on a sun drenched morning in Rome.

2:19 The red carpet was rolled out as Charles and Camilla arrived to the sound of both national anthems and a formal inspection of the Guard of Honour. Following a military parade featuring Italy's Army, Navy, Air Force, Carabineri and the Crazieri Guard, the royals ascended to the Palace Terroce to witness an impressive flypast. Italy's Fretci Tricolori lit up these skies in red, white and green, while the Arifs red arrows responded in red, white and blue, a symbolic salute to defense and diplomacy between the two nations. Inside the palace, King Charles held a private meeting with President Mattarella, while Queen Camilla was shown a collection of antique horsemanship books in the Biblioteca tell Paffetti. During their exchange of honors, the King was appointed Knight Grand Cross with Color of the Order of Merit and in turn presented President Mattarella with the Knight Grand Cross of the Order of the Bath.

3:09 The Queen was made a Dame Grand Cross of the Order of Merit of the Republic of Italy. Commenting on Italian Ambassador Inigo Lambertini, the King said warmly, we are very lucky to have him, noting the depth of his personal connection to the country. Charles added, this is my eighteenth visit here, to which President Mattarella replied, and I remember having you here at the Curinali before on your visits to Rome. From there, the royal couple proceeded to Rome's Order of the Fatherland, where they laid a wreath at the tomb of the unknown Soldier in a moving tribute. Greeted by Defense Minister Guido Crossetto and senior Italian military officials, the king inspected a guard of two hundred personnel and paid respect to the war flag of the Grenaitieri di Sardania Regiment. With a laurel wreath adorned with the royal ribbon in the Italian style, the King and Queen solemnly honored the memory of Italy's fault. The ceremony concluded with a final salute from the parade commander. Later in the day, the queen were photographed at the coliseum, where they received a briefing on Italy's cultural heritage and the continual restoration of the ancient landmark. A fitting visit for a monarch lifelong interest in architecture and heritage conservation. Queen Camilla elegant in a bespoke royal bluecoat dress by Fiona Clair, who prays for her storial nod to history. She wore the Prince Albert brooch, a striking diamond and sapphire heirloom once belonging to Queen Victoria later Queen Elizabeth. The piece is estimated to be worth over eight million pounds due to its provenance and significance and a happy twentieth anniversary to

4:43 the King and Queen. The prt is out there continuing their very successful overhaul of Camilla's image from other women to evil stepmother to the woman who makes Charles a better man. Veteran royal photographer Arthur Edwards tells the Son I have seen their marriage up close, and in my opinion, it is an extra happy union. Since their wedding and Windsor on April ninth, two thousand and five, it has become very obvious that they make each other feel very happy and secure. The main thing I've noticed is that the king who have been photographing for nearly fifty years, has become a nicer person. Thanks to Camilla, he has calmed down these days. He rarely gets stressed or wound up about things. In the past, he would get angry if the windows were shut or there was no air in the room, or that pent up anger seemed to disappear.

5:26 After retired the not with Camilla, the couple will mark the anniversary today as part of the four days state visit to Italy. Today's plans called for celebrations of diplomatic and military tires with a joint flypast over Rome by the Royal Air Forces Red Arrows in Italy's fretch. A tricolori schedule allows more time at each engagement.

According to the disaster's Emergency Committee, which is coordinating the appeal, more than thirty one hundred people have died and over forty five hundred have been injured in the disaster. On its very first day, the appeal raised seven point five million pounds, a total that includes matching contributions from the UK Government, which has pledged to double public donations up to five million pounds.

Megan markles as Ever brand is expanding the dungets of direct marketing. May have launched with raspberry fruits Spread and flower sprinkles, but the part time podcast a part time cooking show host and dog biscuit baker, is making one thing clear. This is only the beginning.

7:51 Megan spoke to Ink about her vision for the brand and its future beyond culinary comforts. I hope that people see that reflected in whatever it is that I'm creating and putting out. It's just an extension of me translating that's watery fruit spread is an extension of the real Meghan Sussex. Moving on. A recent video shared on social media offered a hint at what's to come amidst the fruit spread, jars and biscuit tins are white, plants are bearing the brand's distinctive emblem. A palm tree flanked by two hummingbirds made a quiet appearance, and Insider noted the emblem's meaning was carefully chosen. The distinct shape inclosing the birds and tree was intentionally designed to create a unique and personal emblem. Meghan told INC I was building out a very different business plan before meeting Josh Simon, Netflix's vice president of consumer Products. The reach from Netflix, coupled with my vision for the brand, felt like it was going to be a really perfect match. Netflix CEO Ted SARANDUS echo the sentiment, although if you can pay attention, you can almost visualize himself running away from all of this, noting we're a passive partner in Meghan's company and it's a big discovery model for us. Right now, we know you can't stand as teasing what this exciting brand extension might so we'll cut to the chase hospitality and home offerings.

9:05 Meghan is set to face a renewed legal challenge from her half sister, Samantha Mirkle, who will attempt to revive her previously dismissed libel lawsuit. During court hearing scheduled for the week beginning August eleventh this year. The appeal will be heard at the Eleventh Circuit Court of Appeal in Atlanta, where judges will consider Samantha's claims that Meghan orchestrated a smear campaign against her through the now infamous twenty twenty one Oprah Winfrey interview in subsequent Netflix documentary Haran Meghan. Samantha Michael originally filed the lawsuits in twenty twenty two, accusing Meghan of making falsome malicious statements about her upbringing family relationships. However, the case was thrown out in March of twenty four by a Florida judge who ruled that Meghan was expressing opinions protected under the First Amendment. Undeterred, Samantha lodged an appeal, arguing that this dismissal was premature and the case deserves a hearing on its merits. A new court filing seen by Newsweek confirmed that the matter has been assigned to Tentative London Number twenty one in Atlanta during the week of August eleven. Megan is not expected to attend the hearing in person, and there you have it. I'd like to email us addresses the Palace Intrigue at gmail dot com.
