SEVEN CHARITIES FLEE ANDREW SCANDAL: Harry Registers Archie For Eton Then Denies Everything!l The week in royal news.

This week delivered royal chaos on an epic scale! Seven major charities dumped Sarah Ferguson faster than a hot potato after explosive emails revealed she called Jeffrey Epstein a "supreme friend" just weeks after publicly vowing to cut ties forever. But that wasn't the worst of it - new allegations emerged about Prince Andrew's involvement in a Thai orgy with over 40 women, described by witnesses as "industrial scale" encounters funded by taxpayers! Meanwhile, Prince Harry quietly registered six-year-old Archie for Eton College in a stunning move that could see the Sussex and Cambridge cousins educated together - only to have his spokesperson deny everything by Friday! Palace insiders are still furious over Harry's Guardian interview, with sources saying "his mouth is his biggest problem." Plus: William and Charles held crisis talks at Balmoral about keeping the monarchy united, Kate delivered a tear-jerking tribute to the Southport victims, Princess Anne gave underwire bra advice at a lingerie factory, and Meghan got publicly dumped by a reality TV star after snubbing her with gift boxes!

00:00:15.880 --> 00:00:18.359
Hello and welcome to Pallace Weekly. I am your host,

3
00:00:18.559 --> 00:00:22.199
Mark Francis. Well, what a week for Royal watchers who

4
00:00:22.320 --> 00:00:25.079
enjoy their drama served with a side of scandal and

5
00:00:25.120 --> 00:00:29.519
a healthy dollop of family dysfunction. Between explosive and Andrew

6
00:00:29.600 --> 00:00:33.079
revelations that had charities fleeing faster than guests at the

7
00:00:33.119 --> 00:00:38.159
fire Festival, Harry quietly registering Archie for eton plot twist

8
00:00:38.159 --> 00:00:42.520
of the century, and Megan getting snubbed by reality TV stars,

9
00:00:42.640 --> 00:00:46.159
this week proved that the Royal soap opera never takes

10
00:00:46.159 --> 00:00:51.200
a commercial break. The week began innocuously enough with the

11
00:00:51.320 --> 00:00:56.560
revelation that Trump never actually ate spaghetti during King Charles's speech,

12
00:00:56.759 --> 00:01:00.880
a viral AI generated photo that fulled millions, But by Wednesday,

13
00:01:00.960 --> 00:01:03.159
the week had taken a much darker turn as the

14
00:01:03.240 --> 00:01:07.719
Prince Andrew scandal reached new heights of toxicity. The bombshell

15
00:01:07.760 --> 00:01:10.680
came in the form of Sarah Ferguson's previously undisclosed email

16
00:01:10.719 --> 00:01:14.200
to Jeffrey Epstein, sent just fifty days after she publicly

17
00:01:14.319 --> 00:01:18.200
vowed to have nothing to ever do with Jeffrey Epstein

18
00:01:18.280 --> 00:01:22.239
ever again. In the gushing message, She called the convicted

19
00:01:22.280 --> 00:01:26.959
sex offender a steadfast, generous and supreme friend, and apologized

20
00:01:26.959 --> 00:01:30.799
for the delay in responding, explaining she'd been advised in

21
00:01:30.840 --> 00:01:33.560
no uncertain terms to have nothing to do with you.

22
00:01:34.359 --> 00:01:38.439
The fallout was swift and brutal. Seven charities severed times

23
00:01:38.439 --> 00:01:40.439
with the Duchess of York faster than you can say

24
00:01:40.879 --> 00:01:46.120
Reputational Damage. Teenage Cancer Trust, which she'd supported for thirty

25
00:01:46.120 --> 00:01:49.599
five years, led the exodus with a terse statement, we

26
00:01:49.640 --> 00:01:52.400
had made the decision to end our relationship with Duchess

27
00:01:52.480 --> 00:01:57.319
of York. Julia's House Hospice Prevent Breast Cancer, the Natasha

28
00:01:57.400 --> 00:02:01.439
Allergy Research Foundation and the British Hard Foundation followed suit,

29
00:02:01.519 --> 00:02:04.799
and what can only be described as a charitable stampede

30
00:02:04.799 --> 00:02:10.280
for the exits. Royal biographer Andrew Lowney wasn't buying Ferguson's excuses,

31
00:02:10.319 --> 00:02:14.360
telling the Royalist, it's not fifteen thousand pounds, it's more

32
00:02:14.439 --> 00:02:17.319
like two million pounds. It's why Andrew went to see

33
00:02:17.400 --> 00:02:19.960
him in December twenty ten, just to get a bit

34
00:02:20.039 --> 00:02:22.840
more money out of him. We can't trust a single word,

35
00:02:23.120 --> 00:02:26.680
she says. But the week wasn't finished with Andrew Friday

36
00:02:26.680 --> 00:02:29.879
bought allegations from Lowney's new book about the Duke's involvement

37
00:02:29.919 --> 00:02:33.639
in what witnesses described as a tie orgy with more

38
00:02:33.680 --> 00:02:36.840
than forty women. Thai staff were reportedly shocked at the

39
00:02:36.879 --> 00:02:40.240
industrial scale of the encounters, with sources calling it an

40
00:02:40.360 --> 00:02:42.840
organized stream of women brought in in while he was

41
00:02:42.919 --> 00:02:47.680
overseas on official business funded by the taxpayer. The revelations

42
00:02:47.719 --> 00:02:50.759
created a fresh rift between King Charles and Prince William

43
00:02:50.800 --> 00:02:55.159
over how to handle the York situation. While Charles reportedly

44
00:02:55.159 --> 00:02:58.360
resisted calls to completely disown his brother and former sister

45
00:02:58.479 --> 00:03:02.360
in law, William was taking a much harder line. A

46
00:03:02.439 --> 00:03:05.919
royal source revealed William feels even more strongly than the

47
00:03:06.120 --> 00:03:09.680
King that Andrew and Fergie are an embarrassment and will

48
00:03:09.680 --> 00:03:13.240
be urging his father to act. William is said to

49
00:03:13.319 --> 00:03:17.400
favor barring both Andrew and Sarah from attending public family events,

50
00:03:17.719 --> 00:03:21.120
including Christmas gatherings, and is pressing for their eviction from

51
00:03:21.280 --> 00:03:25.080
Royal Lodge. It's another example of the future King's zero

52
00:03:25.199 --> 00:03:30.120
tolerance approach to family members who damage the crown's reputation.

53
00:03:32.439 --> 00:03:36.000
Tuesday brought perhaps the week's most surprising revelation, Prince Harry

54
00:03:36.039 --> 00:03:39.719
has quietly registered six year old Archie for Eton College.

55
00:03:39.800 --> 00:03:42.280
The move, confirmed by friends of the Duke, represents a

56
00:03:42.319 --> 00:03:46.479
fascinating evolution in Harry's thinking about his children's future. For

57
00:03:46.520 --> 00:03:49.319
William and Harry, Eton is really the only sensible choice

58
00:03:49.360 --> 00:03:52.479
when it comes to British schools because of security. A

59
00:03:52.520 --> 00:03:55.039
friend explained to The Royalist. There are so many high

60
00:03:55.080 --> 00:03:58.319
profile and politically exposed kids there that the whole school

61
00:03:58.319 --> 00:04:03.360
has ridiculous security provisions. Already, it's seven day boarding, lots

62
00:04:03.360 --> 00:04:05.439
of kids fly back and forth at the beginning and

63
00:04:05.560 --> 00:04:09.840
end of term, so why wouldn't Archie. The implications are staggering.

64
00:04:09.960 --> 00:04:13.560
Should Archie attend Eton, he'd potentially overlap with both Prince

65
00:04:13.599 --> 00:04:16.920
George and Prince Louis, creating the possibility of the Sussex

66
00:04:16.959 --> 00:04:21.160
and Cambridge cousins growing up together despite their parents' estrangement.

67
00:04:21.879 --> 00:04:24.639
It's either a brilliantly strategic move by Harry to keep

68
00:04:24.680 --> 00:04:27.759
his family connected to royal life, or a heartbreaking indication

69
00:04:27.879 --> 00:04:30.439
of how desperately he wants his children to have the

70
00:04:30.519 --> 00:04:34.800
experiences he treasures from his own youth. An old friend

71
00:04:34.839 --> 00:04:37.680
confirmed that Harry has retained his closest friendship group of

72
00:04:38.000 --> 00:04:40.959
confidants from his days at school in Ludgrove and Eton.

73
00:04:41.439 --> 00:04:44.040
He wants that for his own children. But there's a catch.

74
00:04:44.199 --> 00:04:47.279
There is still some negotiation for Harry to have with Megan.

75
00:04:47.480 --> 00:04:51.920
The Insider admitted that negotiation apparently didn't go well. By Friday,

76
00:04:51.920 --> 00:04:55.079
a spokesperson for Harry and Meghan was denying the reports entirely,

77
00:04:55.439 --> 00:04:57.959
telling E I can confirm that Prince Harry has not

78
00:04:57.959 --> 00:05:00.240
put Archie's name down for Eton and that the Duke

79
00:05:00.240 --> 00:05:03.319
has no plans to send his son to Eton. The

80
00:05:03.319 --> 00:05:07.279
swift denial raised more questions than it answered. Had Harry

81
00:05:07.319 --> 00:05:10.399
been overruled by Megan? Was this another case of royal

82
00:05:10.480 --> 00:05:14.160
wishful thinking being reported as fact or was this damage

83
00:05:14.199 --> 00:05:20.480
control after the story leaked prematurely. Meanwhile, the after shocks

84
00:05:20.480 --> 00:05:24.639
from Harry's Guardian interview were still reverberating through palace corridors.

85
00:05:25.040 --> 00:05:29.120
Shutterscoop reported that royal sources remained deeply displeased with Harry's

86
00:05:29.120 --> 00:05:33.560
public comments just days after his reconciliation meeting with Charles.

87
00:05:33.920 --> 00:05:37.040
His mouth is his biggest problem. One palace inside it

88
00:05:37.160 --> 00:05:40.399
claimed he digs the hole deeper each time he speaks publicly.

89
00:05:40.920 --> 00:05:43.920
Another source was more blunt, he acts like repeating these

90
00:05:44.040 --> 00:05:47.279
stories helps, but it just twists the knife. The frustration

91
00:05:47.439 --> 00:05:51.279
was palpable, with insiders pointing out that far from building trust,

92
00:05:51.319 --> 00:05:55.600
Harry's post meeting's comments had the opposite effect. One Royal

93
00:05:55.639 --> 00:05:59.600
source noted that syrrape briefings from supposed Sussex circles were

94
00:05:59.600 --> 00:06:04.920
precisely why the Royal family remained cautious about reconciliation. Perhaps

95
00:06:04.920 --> 00:06:07.680
most damaging was the growing perception that Harry simply couldn't

96
00:06:07.680 --> 00:06:11.319
help himself. Every olive branch extended seemed to result in

97
00:06:11.319 --> 00:06:15.240
another public relations disaster. As one insider put it, whoever

98
00:06:15.319 --> 00:06:17.399
is behind them seems to have mistaken a brief tea

99
00:06:17.399 --> 00:06:19.680
in a slice of cake for the Treaty of Sai.

100
00:06:21.439 --> 00:06:24.079
By weeks and William had made a quiet trip to

101
00:06:24.199 --> 00:06:27.240
Scotland to spend a time with King Charles at Burkehall.

102
00:06:27.839 --> 00:06:32.000
The visit, captured by Daily Mail photographers shows William arriving

103
00:06:32.000 --> 00:06:35.319
at Aberdeen Airport with a duffel bag. Was described by

104
00:06:35.319 --> 00:06:38.040
Inside a Deep Crown as a strategy session. Charles and

105
00:06:38.040 --> 00:06:40.560
William are talking through how much more visible William should

106
00:06:40.600 --> 00:06:43.680
be and how they keep the family looking united. With

107
00:06:43.759 --> 00:06:45.920
Harry in the mix again and Charles still carrying a

108
00:06:45.959 --> 00:06:48.279
heavy load, this meeting is about setting the pace for

109
00:06:48.319 --> 00:06:51.920
the next chapter. The timing was significant, coming on the

110
00:06:51.959 --> 00:06:55.319
hills of William's emotional interview with Eugene Levy, where he

111
00:06:55.399 --> 00:06:58.519
called twenty twenty four the hardest year I've ever had.

112
00:06:59.000 --> 00:07:03.040
The father's son, Retred Tree suggested both men understood the stakes.

113
00:07:03.199 --> 00:07:05.439
With public support for the monarchy at a forty year

114
00:07:05.439 --> 00:07:08.439
low and family scanned was multiplying, they need to present

115
00:07:08.480 --> 00:07:11.600
a united front. Tom Sakes in The Royalist, framed the

116
00:07:11.600 --> 00:07:15.360
meeting in terms of the ongoing Harry question. William's red

117
00:07:15.399 --> 00:07:18.800
line is clear, No Royal should grant Harry the legitimacy

118
00:07:18.839 --> 00:07:22.439
of a meeting or photograph after spare and Netflix. Charles,

119
00:07:22.439 --> 00:07:25.439
by contrast, is tempted by affection for his darling boy

120
00:07:25.720 --> 00:07:28.560
and fear of appearing heartless in the shadow of his illness.

121
00:07:29.879 --> 00:07:32.240
The irony wasn't lost on observers that while Harry was

122
00:07:32.279 --> 00:07:35.439
being celebrated for his brief UK charm offensive, William was

123
00:07:35.439 --> 00:07:39.560
being criticized for prioritizing family time. Charles reported frustration with

124
00:07:39.600 --> 00:07:43.600
William's work ethic, despite the heir's grueling schedule, supporting both

125
00:07:43.639 --> 00:07:47.399
his father and his recovering wife, highlighted the impossible standards

126
00:07:47.839 --> 00:07:53.160
facing the future king. Amidst all the family drama, Key

127
00:07:53.240 --> 00:07:56.120
provided a master class in royal duty with her unannounced

128
00:07:56.240 --> 00:08:00.319
visit to Southport. Alongside William, the couple met privately with

129
00:08:00.399 --> 00:08:04.120
the families of Alistair Silver, Igua, bb King and Elsie

130
00:08:04.160 --> 00:08:07.560
dot Standcombe. The three girls called in July's knife attack

131
00:08:08.040 --> 00:08:11.959
and two memorial playgrounds built in their honour. The emotional

132
00:08:12.000 --> 00:08:15.160
highlight came when the girl's parents gifted William and Catherine

133
00:08:15.240 --> 00:08:20.560
beaded Friendship bracelets reading Bibe's Hive after the charity established

134
00:08:20.639 --> 00:08:23.560
in Biebe's memory. Both royals wore them for the remainder

135
00:08:23.600 --> 00:08:26.120
of the day, a touching tribute the echo of the

136
00:08:26.199 --> 00:08:29.839
kind worn by Taylor Swift fans, connecting the tragedy to

137
00:08:29.839 --> 00:08:32.600
the girl's love of the pop star. William's address to

138
00:08:32.720 --> 00:08:37.120
seven hundred pupils captured the moment perfectly. Be brave, be joyful,

139
00:08:37.240 --> 00:08:39.840
and be kind. This playground is a symbol of how

140
00:08:39.879 --> 00:08:42.279
the community has come together to create such a positive

141
00:08:42.320 --> 00:08:44.720
place for the pupils. Of the school, a symbol of

142
00:08:44.919 --> 00:08:50.200
remembrance and resilience, a testament that love will always overcome tragedy.

143
00:08:50.399 --> 00:08:52.720
It was exactly the kind of meaningful engagement that reminded

144
00:08:52.840 --> 00:08:55.440
everyone why the monarchy and endures not for the scandals

145
00:08:55.480 --> 00:08:58.320
or the drama, but for moments of genuine human connection

146
00:08:59.080 --> 00:09:05.960
in times of greed. More interesting moment in a week

147
00:09:06.000 --> 00:09:09.639
filled with serious scandals, Princess Anne provided some much needed

148
00:09:09.639 --> 00:09:12.799
comic relief with her visit to a lingerie manufacturer in

149
00:09:12.879 --> 00:09:16.080
South Wales. Photos of the Princess Royal surrounded by bras

150
00:09:16.120 --> 00:09:19.600
and nickers made for a delightful social media content, but

151
00:09:19.799 --> 00:09:23.879
Anne's practical contribution was even better. She suggested the company

152
00:09:23.879 --> 00:09:28.440
Contactor Mattress Firm for advice on developing stronger underwire supports

153
00:09:28.480 --> 00:09:32.720
for larger sizes, having recently visited a mattress company that

154
00:09:32.720 --> 00:09:36.519
produces its own steel springs, AND's suggestion was both practical

155
00:09:36.559 --> 00:09:39.320
and perfectly on brand for a working royal known for

156
00:09:39.360 --> 00:09:44.519
her no nonsense approach. Company founder Naomi Dehan described the

157
00:09:44.519 --> 00:09:48.000
princess as very cool, very interested in everything, and noted

158
00:09:48.039 --> 00:09:51.879
she came across as very feminist despite the fun photos

159
00:09:51.919 --> 00:09:55.279
and reportedly doesn't enjoy being called a secret sex bomb,

160
00:09:55.600 --> 00:09:59.720
a reference to comparisons between her nineteen seventies hairstyle and

161
00:10:00.279 --> 00:10:03.919
Fonda's look in Barbarella. A source noted that while Anne's

162
00:10:03.960 --> 00:10:07.159
family often teases her about such stories, asserting to he

163
00:10:07.200 --> 00:10:09.519
had some kind of sex bomb aspiration is a bit

164
00:10:09.559 --> 00:10:14.120
of a stretch even for Anne. The week began with

165
00:10:14.200 --> 00:10:17.120
lingering Trump after glow, as the former president praised his

166
00:10:17.279 --> 00:10:20.720
UK reception and extended an invitation to King Charles for

167
00:10:20.759 --> 00:10:24.039
America's two hundred and fiftieth Independence Day celebrations in July.

168
00:10:24.960 --> 00:10:27.399
The British knew how to do this perfectly, Trump told

169
00:10:27.440 --> 00:10:30.159
reporters aboard Air Force One. They set the bar hire

170
00:10:30.159 --> 00:10:33.960
for their trip to see US. Trump's particular praise for Kate,

171
00:10:34.080 --> 00:10:38.159
calling her radiant, healthy, and so beautiful, continued to generate

172
00:10:38.200 --> 00:10:42.080
analysis about royal soft power. The state visit had achieved

173
00:10:42.120 --> 00:10:44.840
its diplomatic goals, but at what cost of family unity?

174
00:10:45.240 --> 00:10:49.200
The spectacle had showcased the monarchy's strengths while exposing its

175
00:10:49.240 --> 00:10:55.000
internal fractures. Back in Montecito, Megan was having a typically

176
00:10:55.080 --> 00:10:58.840
complex week. On the positive side, Magic FM offered her

177
00:10:58.879 --> 00:11:01.399
a radio hosting job after she revealed on Netflix that

178
00:11:01.480 --> 00:11:05.600
she misses listening to the British station. Content director Paul

179
00:11:05.639 --> 00:11:08.720
Sylvester made the offer public. If the Duchess wants to

180
00:11:08.720 --> 00:11:11.480
host a shure, she's very welcome. But the week also

181
00:11:11.559 --> 00:11:15.879
brought renewed criticism about her pattern of launching initiatives only

182
00:11:15.960 --> 00:11:20.200
to let them quietly fizzle. A Hollywood insider told Radar

183
00:11:20.320 --> 00:11:25.240
Online her energy is on Netflix, production meetings and lifestyle branding.

184
00:11:25.519 --> 00:11:28.600
Charity work is no longer her focus. The critique stung

185
00:11:28.840 --> 00:11:31.799
because it touched on a fundamental question about Megan's post

186
00:11:31.879 --> 00:11:36.320
royal identity. The week's most embarrassing moment came when reality

187
00:11:36.559 --> 00:11:40.759
TV star Stassy Schroder publicly declared she was finished supporting

188
00:11:40.799 --> 00:11:44.240
Megan after being excluded from the Duchess's latest PR gift

189
00:11:44.399 --> 00:11:49.200
box drop. Schroeder's rant I have literally defended her when

190
00:11:49.240 --> 00:11:51.480
no one else did. My feelings are hurt and I'm

191
00:11:51.519 --> 00:11:55.120
a toxic fan that's now a toxic hater went viral

192
00:11:55.200 --> 00:11:57.759
for all the wrong reasons. When former van Der Pump

193
00:11:57.840 --> 00:11:59.879
Rules styles are publicly breaking up with you, it might

194
00:12:00.080 --> 00:12:04.879
be time to reassess your PR strategy. Harry and Meghan

195
00:12:05.039 --> 00:12:08.080
did score a win with their selection as Humanitarians of

196
00:12:08.120 --> 00:12:11.720
the Year at the World Mental Health Day Festival. The

197
00:12:11.759 --> 00:12:14.519
couple will accept the award in person on October ninth,

198
00:12:14.799 --> 00:12:17.799
with organizers praising their global efforts in building a safer,

199
00:12:17.919 --> 00:12:21.639
more equitable digital world for families and youth. It's the

200
00:12:21.720 --> 00:12:24.679
kind of recognition that plays well to their California audience

201
00:12:24.679 --> 00:12:28.879
while keeping them relevant in the humanitarian space. Whether it

202
00:12:28.919 --> 00:12:34.360
translates to meaningful reconciliation with Harry's family remains another question entirely.

203
00:12:36.120 --> 00:12:39.080
As the dust settled on another dramatic week, several trends

204
00:12:39.080 --> 00:12:42.120
became clear. The Andrew scandal has reached a point where

205
00:12:42.159 --> 00:12:45.519
even King charles legendary loyalty to family might not be

206
00:12:45.679 --> 00:12:49.240
enough to protect his brother William's increasingly hardlined stance on

207
00:12:49.600 --> 00:12:53.919
family scandals. Whether Andrew or Harry suggests the future monarchy

208
00:12:53.919 --> 00:12:58.840
will have far less tolerance from embarrassing relatives. Harry's ETN

209
00:12:58.960 --> 00:13:03.039
registration story, Real or not, highlighted the tragic complexity of

210
00:13:03.039 --> 00:13:06.519
his situation, desperately wanting his children to experience the British

211
00:13:06.679 --> 00:13:10.879
education and friendships that shaped him, while simultaneously making that

212
00:13:10.919 --> 00:13:15.279
increasingly impossible through his own actions, and Charles, caught between

213
00:13:15.279 --> 00:13:18.720
his roles as father and king, continues to navigate impossible

214
00:13:18.799 --> 00:13:22.080
choices that satisfied no one. His willingness to meet with

215
00:13:22.120 --> 00:13:27.039
Harry angered William and achieved no lasting reconciliation. His reluctance

216
00:13:27.159 --> 00:13:33.159
to complete the exile Andrew frustrated those demanding accountability. As

217
00:13:33.200 --> 00:13:37.639
we head into October, several storylines bear watching. Will Charles

218
00:13:37.679 --> 00:13:42.200
actually traveled to America for the Independence Day invitation? Can

219
00:13:42.240 --> 00:13:46.600
the Andrew situation get any worse? Spoiler alert? Probably? And

220
00:13:46.679 --> 00:13:48.639
will Harry ever find a way to bridge the gap

221
00:13:48.639 --> 00:13:51.960
between his California life and his royal heritage. One thing

222
00:13:52.080 --> 00:13:54.600
seems certain. The House of Windsor continues to provide the

223
00:13:54.600 --> 00:13:58.159
world's most expensive and elaborate family therapy session, played out

224
00:13:58.200 --> 00:14:01.039
on a global stage with Crown's carriages and enough drum

225
00:14:01.120 --> 00:14:04.799
and a few thousand Netflix series. The irony, of course,

226
00:14:04.840 --> 00:14:07.279
is that while the family tears itself apart over issues

227
00:14:07.320 --> 00:14:10.559
of loyalty, duty, and public image, the British public is

228
00:14:10.559 --> 00:14:13.799
increasingly asking whether any of it matters at all. With

229
00:14:13.919 --> 00:14:16.919
support from the monarchy at historic lows, the real question

230
00:14:17.039 --> 00:14:19.799
isn't who wins the various family feuds. It's whether there

231
00:14:19.799 --> 00:14:23.159
will be anything left to fight over. But for this

232
00:14:23.200 --> 00:14:27.759
week at least, the show went on spectacular, messy, heartbreaking

233
00:14:27.960 --> 00:14:30.960
and utterly compelling, because in the end, that's what the

234
00:14:31.039 --> 00:14:34.120
Royals do best. They endure, they adapt, and they give

235
00:14:34.200 --> 00:14:37.039
us something to talk about over the breakfast, even when

236
00:14:37.039 --> 00:14:39.720
we're not entirely sure we want to watch any more,

237
00:14:40.519 --> 00:14:43.559
