This spring, Catherine, Princess of Wales, ended a long silence and rampant public speculation with a solemn video announcing her cancer diagnosis. In the final episode of DYNASTY: The Windsors' Most Difficult Year, hosts Claire Howorth, Katie Nicholl, and Erin Vanderhoof explain why the message that accompanied her diagnosis was the most important speech of her royal career, and what it says about the Catherine we will see in the future. After a year of struggle, is the monarchy emerging into a new, calmer era? And what lessons will the Windsors take away from their brushes with ill-health and public speculation?
Critics at Large is off this week. In the meantime, enjoy a recent episode from Vanity Fair's “Dynasty,” hosted by the executive editor Claire Howorth, along with the correspondents Katie Nicholl and Erin Vanderhoof. It's been four years since Meghan Markle and Prince Harry walked away from their royal roles, sparking an endless stream of media attention and second-guessing from tabloids in the U.K. In the time since, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex have been carving out a semi-royal path in the court of Montecito, California. They've struck big-ticket Hollywood deals worth millions of dollars. Is their newfound celebrity status sustainable?To discover more from “Dynasty” and other Vanity Fair podcasts, visit vanityfair.com/podcasts.
When King Charles III announced his cancer diagnosis in February, there was an outpouring of emotion in the UK, along with some concern about what it would look like if the monarch not wasn't able to greet his public on a daily basis. From the beginning, the king balanced his treatments with his duties, and privately he told his medical team that attending Trooping the Colour, the parade that marks his birthday, was nonnegotiable. By the time the June celebration rolled around, the king was out on the Buckingham Palace balcony with Queen Camilla at his side, and the clouds over the Windsors' future seemed to part. On this week's episode of DYNASTY: The Royal Family's Most Challenging Year, hosts Claire Howorth, Katie Nicholl, and Erin Vanderhoof return to the unprecedented events of the year, and Charles' embrace of radical (for royals, anyway) transparency.
After a year in which the British Royal Family has been forced to foreground its humanity and vulnerability, DYNASTY is returning for a special four-episode series to examine the events and share behind-the-scenes details. On this inaugural episode, hosts Claire Howorth, Katie Nicholl, and Erin Vanderhoof discuss Prince William's role as the royal responsible for holding the family together amid a maelstrom of illness and personal rifts. How has William balanced his public role with his private challenges? Has he recovered from the hit to his reputation when Harry spilled in his memoir, Spare? And if his reign were to come sooner than anyone imagined, would he be ready?
My two main niches in both my life and my work are books (but you already knew that) and the royal family. You may not know this about me—or maybe you do—but my main specialty coverage area in my work is the royals, and boy, has it been one hell of a ride in the British royal family this year, especially with one Kate Middleton as of late. One of the best royal correspondents in the game is our guest today, Vanity Fair's Erin Vanderhoof, who is deeply talented and someone I consider to be the gold standard in royal reporting. In addition to covering the royal family, she also covers culture, books, and music for Vanity Fair, and she and fellow royal expert Katie Nicholl co-host the podcast “Dynasty” about the royal family, which I love. Yet another podcast I need more episodes from! Erin's reporting on the royals has been featured on Today, NBC News, BBC's Newsnight, CBS Sunday Mornings, and CNN, where, randomly, Erin and I appeared together on a 5 a.m. segment the day after the Queen died talking about her passing. I enjoyed hearing about Erin's entry point into covering the royals, hearing about her favorite royal family books, and, interestingly, about her past jobs as a teacher and a butcher. Royal reporting is a very interesting beat, and Erin is the leader of the pack. Erin's work at Vanity Fair “Dynasty” podcast Katie Nicholl's books Tina Brown's books + I love leaving you with three!

In this month's series, we'll take a look at the dark side of royalty. I will detail crimes, sex scandals, and even murders that have occurred within royal families. First up, a member of the British royal family, Prince Andrew, the Duke of York's reputation is muddied when his close, personal friend, Jeffrey Epstein, is exposed as a sex trafficker of underage girls. Prince Andrew will fall even further into disgrace when one of Epstein's victims accuses him of sexual assault while she was a minor.

Elle est morte il y a 25 ans, mais elle est encore partout. Lady Diana est décédée à 36 ans à Paris, après un accident de voiture sous le pont de l'Alma, le 31 août 1997. Mais quelque part, on ne s'en remet pas. On ne s'en remet pas dans le sens où : on est toujours aussi subjugués. On veut encore qu'on nous raconte son histoire d'amour magique et infernale avec le prince Charles. On veut encore de son mal-être au sein de la famille royale, de ses liaisons extra-conjugales, de sa guerre silencieuse contre Camilla, de son maillot de bain léopard sur le plongeoir du yacht des Al-Fayed… La preuve, c'est qu'un nouveau biopic sur elle est encore sorti cette année : Spencer, de Pablo Larraín, avec Kristen Stewart dans le rôle-titre. Il y a aussi eu un documentaire, The Princess, salué par la critique. Et puis bien sûr, la saison 5 de The Crown, consacrée à la fin de son couple avec Charles, et à ce que les tabloïds ont appelé à l'époque «la guerre des Galles». Et parce qu'avec Diana, tout prend toujours des proportions inattendues, la saison 6, dédiée à ses derniers jours, fait déjà polémique.Dans cet épisode de Scandales, la journaliste Chloé Friedmann revient avec Erin Vanderhoof, reporter pour l'édition américaine de Vanity Fair, sur la disparition tragique de la princesse des cœurs, et s'interroge sur les raisons pour lesquelles son décès demeure un sujet si sensible, 25 ans plus tard. Pourquoi Diana fascine-t-elle encore, alors même que sa vie de princesse était si loin de la nôtre ? Et quelle image a-t-elle aujourd'hui auprès du grand public ? Cet épisode de Scandales est un podcast de Madame Figaro, écrit par Chloé Friedmann, présenté par Marion Galy-Ramounot, et produit par Lucile Rousseau-Garcia. Juliette Médevielle en a fait la réalisation et le mix, sur des musiques composées par Jean Thévenin et Thomas Rozes.

Vanity Fair writer Erin Vanderhoof is on the show to chat about the post-Brexit wave of indie bands in the U.K. and Ireland, including Black Midi, Courting, Shame, Yard Act, Legss, etc. You can read my article about the emerging scene – which is largely focused on Squid, Drying Cleaning and Black Country, New Road - over at NPR. Erin and I recorded a whole other episode that gets into Taylor Swift, Steely Dan, Stereolab, Jonas Brothers, rockabilly, and a whole lot of other things that you can hear as a Patreon exclusive.
This week, writer and music critic Erin Vanderhoof gifts us with a special mix of mid-tempo indie pop and indie rock bangers, just in time for the arrival of fall. In her words: "I'm fascinated by mid-tempo music because unlike, say, balladry or dance music, it has to use a subtle and limited set of tools to convey emotion." Enjoy this thoughtfully curated collection of bright, bittersweet tunes from the 80s, 2000s, and today. Tracklist: mmarzmix.com/089 Twitter: twitter.com/vanderhoofy
