Good afternoon, I'm _____ with today's episode of EZ News. Tai-Ex opening The Tai-Ex opened down 45-points this morning from yesterday's close, at 21,492 on turnover of $2.9-billion N-T. Taiwan-China interactions continue despite stalled talks: MAC head Mainland Affairs Council head Chiu Chui-cheng says Taiwan and China still maintain some level of interaction, even though official dialogue has stalled. In an interview,Chiu said interactions with China are being carried out in line with the Act Governing Relations between the People of the Taiwan Area and the Mainland Area. Chiu acknowledged that maintaining "normal dialogue" is currently difficult because Taiwan will never accept China's demand to treat the "1992 Consensus," based on the "One China principle," as a precondition (前提). Nevertheless, Chiu said some interaction continues between the MAC and China's Taiwan Affairs Office, as well as between the semi-official SEF and its Chinese counterpart, the Beijing-based Association for Relations Across the Taiwan Straits. Chiu also says individuals across the Strait, including Taiwanese businesspeople, scholars and journalists, frequently travel between the two sides and share information.

Prince Harry has issued a deeply personal and emotional plea for reconciliation with his family, lamenting that his father, King Charles III, “won't speak to me” and reflecting on the monarch's ongoing health battle.Speaking to the BBC shortly after a legal defeat in his ongoing battle for police protection in the United Kingdom, the Duke of Sussex said, “"Of course some members of my family will never forgive me for writing a book, of course they will never forgive me for lots of things, but I would love reconcilation with my family. There's no point in continuing to fight anymore.Life is precious. I don't know how much longer my father has.”Harry, 40, lost his appeal on May 2 against a Home Office decision to strip him of publicly funded security following his and Meghan's departure from royal duties in 2020. The court upheld that the ruling was “understandable and perhaps predictable,” given the changing nature of the Duke's visits and the UK's approach to risk.Yet Harry remains convinced the matter could be resolved within the family, saying, “There is a lot of control and ability in my father's hands… Ultimately, this whole thing could be resolved through him. Not necessarily by intervening, but by stepping aside, allowing the experts to do what is necessary.”The Palace has consistently refuted suggestions that the King has the authority to reinstate Harry's police protection. Even so, the issue has become a bitter point of contention. According to sources, though father and son had a positive meeting in February 2024 following Charles's cancer diagnosis, communication has since dried up. “His calls go unanswered,” a friend of Harry's said last year. “He gets ‘unavailable right now'.”After attending a two-day appeal hearing in London in April, Harry told *People* he felt “exhausted and overwhelmed,” adding that his “worst fears have been confirmed by the whole legal disclosure in this case — and that's really sad.”In a formal statement after the court ruling, Harry revealed plans to write to the Home Secretary requesting a review of the RAVEC process, saying, “This legal action has been a last resort, but one that has uncovered shocking truths, starting with the fact that the Royal Household are key decision-makers on RAVEC and my sole representation for matters regarding my safety.”The Duke also addressed the broader implications for his young family. “I can't see a world where I would bring Meghan and the kids back to the U.K. given the security concerns,” he said. “I love my country. I always have done — despite what some people in that country have done. I miss the U.K… I think that it's really quite sad that I won't be able to show my children my homeland.”He concluded with a pointed warning: “If anything was to happen to me, my wife, or my father's grandchildren, look where the responsibility lies.”The statement, dated 2025, comes on letterhead with a stylized H below a crown.Unlock an ad-free podcast experience with Caloroga Shark Media!

Earlier this year Dr Kurt Martens, Professor of Canon Law at the Catholic University of America, joined Damian Thompson on Holy Smoke to unpack what happens during a papal conclave. There was heightened interest in the process due to the film Conclave, which swept the awards season, but also because Pope Francis was hospitalised at the time. Despite showing some signs of recovery – including being able to meet world leaders such as King Charles III and J.D. Vance – Pope Francis died on Easter Monday. Here we reissue the episode with Dr Martens, looking at what happens when a pope dies, with a new introduction from Damian. Writing the cover article for the Spectator this week, Damian writes: ‘the next Vicar of Christ will face challenges that dwarf those that confronted any incoming pope in living memory. The Church is mired in doctrinal confusion; its structures of government are fragmented; sexual scandals have been hushed up at the highest level; and it is staring into a financial abyss'. What can we expect from the upcoming conclave? Produced by Patrick Gibbons.

It's Tuesday, April 22nd, A.D. 2025. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 125 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com. I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Kevin Swanson Pope Francis, who affirmed homosexual ideology, has died Hebrews 9:27 says, “It is appointed once for man to die, and after that the judgment.” The Roman Catholic Pope Francis died Monday of a stroke and heart failure, reports The Epoch Times. He was 88 years old. Francis was not shy to enter into international politics. The pope had recently stated that the Trump administration policies removing illegal immigrants would “end badly.” He had also approved of the Vatican policy allowing church blessings for homosexual couples living in unnatural relations one with another. And he made numerous comments publicly lauding those who advocate LGBT ideology. Francis will also be remembered for his signing over the installation of Catholic bishops in China to the Communist Government. The deal was first signed in 2018, and then renewed in 2020, 2022, and 2024. U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo commented on the travesty, stating that “It's clear that the Sino-Vatican agreement has not shielded Catholics from the Party's depredations, to say nothing of the Party's horrific treatment of Christians.” King Charles references Islam in his “Easter message” Sadly, the King of England took opportunity in his “Easter message” to refer to Judaism and Islam, instead of representing the Christian faith, reports The Christian Post. Referring to Jesus, King Charles said, “The love He showed when He walked the Earth reflected the Jewish ethic of caring for the stranger and those in need, a deep human instinct echoed in Islam and other religious traditions, and in the hearts of all who seek the good of others.” Ostensibly, King Charles III is the head of the English Anglican Church. No wonder the Disciples of Christ tweeted, “King Charles is neglecting his role as Defender of the Faith.” UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer, an atheist, was a little more encouraging to Christians in his Easter message, referencing the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ as “a story of hope, redemption and renewal.” He also referred sympathetically with “Christians facing hardship, persecution or conflict around the world who cannot celebrate freely.” Supreme Court: Can parents opt kids out of LGBT propaganda? The U.S. Supreme Court will hear arguments today from parents in Maryland concerning the public school ban on their opting out their kids on storybook readings on homosexual pride parades, gender transitions, and drag queens, reports USA Today. Mostly Muslim and Christian parents have wanted to opt their children out. Colorado set to punish parents for objecting to kid's gender transition The Colorado State House has approved what may be the worst bill in the nation. The current legislative wording is geared to criminalize parents for disagreeing with their children on gender identity, compel speech, and punish those who hold faith-based or scientific beliefs about sex and gender, reports The Gospel Coalition. Specifically, Colorado liberal legislators could punish a parent guilty of “deadnaming” which is using the transgender child's birth name or “misgendering” which is using pronouns that align with the child's actual biological sex. The legislators describe these actions as forms of “coercive control” which would be considered threatening or intimidating behaviors that courts could consider when determining child custody. Republican Rep. Chris Richardson spoke out against the bill. RICHARDSON: “This is not protecting children, it's weaponizing the courts against parents. This would allow a parent who may be navigating an incredibly complex and emotional issue with their child to lose custody for not affirming a gender identity they may not understand.” Last week, pastors gathered at the capital to protest the bill. Leaders included Pastors Matt Patrick of The Well Church in Boulder, Chris Goble of Ridgeline Community Church in Castle Rock, and Matt Johnson of BRAVE Church in Englewood. The bill is heading for the Democrat-dominated Colorado Senate for approval. Will pastors stand in the gap? Ezekial 22:30 reads of impending judgment: “And I sought for a man among them who should build up the wall and stand in the breach before Me for the land, that I should not destroy it, but I found none.” Is Colorado the most anti-gun state? Colorado is also poised to become the most anti-gun state in America. Indeed, 12 bills restricting gun rights have already passed. The state legislature is considering a record 18 more anti-gun bills this season, which would further restrict gun rights, as monitored by the Rocky Mountain Gunowners Association. Family arrested for “kidnapping” own kids over vaccine issue A Massachusetts homeschool family has been arrested for “kidnapping” their own children. They are held on a $200,000 bond or $20,000 cash bail. The couple's five children have reportedly been taken into custody by Child Protective Services. The extreme response was allegedly sparked by the parents' informed decision to decline to vaccinate their healthy nine-month-old baby, on what they called “sincerely-held religious beliefs.” They had attempted an escape to Texas, where they were hunted down and arrested. Walgreens pays $350 million for prescription Walgreens has agreed to pay up to $350 million for allegedly filling unlawful opioid prescriptions, without taking the time to confirm that the prescriptions were lawful, reports Fox 4. The suit was filed by the U.S. Department of Justice and the Drug Enforcement Administration. This is in addition to paying $5.5 billion for a plethora of suits filed by local and state governments. Walgreens is on a path to bankruptcy, planning 1,200 store closures in the next few years. Drug overdose deaths have killed 1.25 million Americans since 1999 — more than the deaths caused by COVID-19. Dow and the Nasdaq composite dropped The Dow Jones Industrial Average dropped 1,000 points, and the Nasdaq composite slipped 3.5% on a Bear Monday. The NASDAQ registered an 18% drop since the first of the year. Meanwhile, gold topped $3,400 per ounce —another record high. The gold-to-silver ratio reached 105-fold — an all-time high. Historically, the ratio has been 20 to 1. Pat Boone is back And finally, Pat Boone is back on the charts with another Adult Contemporary Hit.

Prime Minister Christopher Luxon has met with King Charles III at Buckingham Palace in London, just hours after the death of Pope Francis. Luxon confirmed he spoke to the King about the death of the Pope during his meeting, but would not divulge further details. A spokesperson for the Prime Minister said Luxon “enjoyed discussing New Zealand issues with the King”. Luxon said discussions with British Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer in coming days will revolve around the Ukraine-Russia war and trade. He and Starmer will travel to meet New Zealand soldiers who are training Ukrainian troops. “I certainly welcome any efforts around just and lasting peace for Ukraine … we'll keep discussing options about being involved in peacekeeping support once the conflict concludes. “We, as a small country with limited resources a long way away, aren't going to be the ones to end that war, obviously … but, regardless, we stand beside our set of values which we think Ukraine, Zelensky, embodies.” Luxon said trade would also be a hot topic given the UK had recently become NZ's seventh-largest trading partner. “We just need to keep pushing forward on it and keep pushing food and beverage and tourism.” King Charles had a busy few days ahead of Luxon's arrival, with various Easter-related events. Late last week, he attended the annual Maundy Service, during which he awarded gifts to individuals in recognition of outstanding Christian service. Maundy Thursday takes place on the Thursday prior to Easter and commemorates the Washing of the Feet and the Last Supper of Jesus Christ. On Easter Sunday, Charles was joined by other members of the royal family at St George's Chapel in Windsor for a traditional church service. In his Easter message, the King said: “The abiding message of Easter is that God so loved the world – the whole world – that He sent His son to live among us to show us how to love one another, and to lay down His own life for others in a love that proved stronger than death. “There are three virtues that the world still needs – faith, hope and love. ‘And the greatest of these is love'. It is with these timeless truths in my mind, and my heart, that I wish you all a blessed and peaceful Easter.” Luxon met with the King for the first time at the Commonwealth Heads of Government Meeting in Samoa in October. The Prime Minister gave away little about what the pair discussed during that meeting, but said it was obvious King Charles had a “deep, deep affection for New Zealand” and was “very knowledgeable about a number of issues”. “It was a very natural conversation; it was just the two of us sitting outside and having a chat on a couple of seats.” This is Luxon's first visit to the UK as Prime Minister. He touched down late on Sunday night (NZT). Ahead of the trip, Luxon highlighted that trade was likely to be a key talking point. “New Zealand is a champion for free trade, and I look forward to talking to Sir Keir Starmer about what our countries can do together to support the rules-based trading system,” Luxon said. “The UK is one of NZ's closest and most trusted partners, and, for many Kiwis, it is where they base themselves on their OE. The UK is also important to NZ's prosperity. Our exports there grew by more than 20% in 2024 and are still growing.” Two-way trade with the UK, which NZ signed a free-trade agreement with in 2022, was worth $7.27 billion in the year ending December 2024, making it our seventh-largest trading partner.

According to agency deputy director-general Chen Chieh-cheng, some 130,000 other Chinese spouses granted "settlement residency" have already provided the required documentation (文件).

Fifty questioned over Taichung Shin Kong Mitsukoshi explosion The Taichung District Prosecutors' Office says 50 people have so far been questioned as part of its on-going investigation into February's deadly explosion at the city's Shin Kong Mitsukoshi department store. According to the prosecutors' office, is has questioned on-site workers, as well as representatives from the Shin Chung Natural Gas Company and the department store chain to clarify the cause of the gas explosion.

Pope Meets with UK King and Queen Pope Francis met privately with King Charles III and Queen Camilla at the Vatican during the royal couple's four-day state visit to Italy and on the occasion of their 20th wedding anniversary. It was the first confirmed meeting since the pope's return to the Vatican after five weeks in the hospital for life-threatening double pneumonia.

Under the orders of King Charles III - who wanted marble and classical art for his palace at Portici - Spanish military engineer Roque Joaquín de Alcubierre excavated some Campanian ruins on 1st April, 1748 - and discovered the long-lost city of Pompeii. Buried beneath volcanic ash and debris since Mount Vesuvius erupted in A.D. 79, much of the city was remarkably preserved; including breathtaking buildings that portrayed the opulent lifestyle enjoyed by the city's wealthy elite. In this episode, Arion, Rebecca and Olly explain how the site has since inspired all archaeological digs; ask why Pompeii in particular has generated such huge human interest; and reveal the truth about ‘Wanking Man'...

It's Friday, March 28th, A.D. 2025. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 125 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com. I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Adam McManus Muslim militants kill 9 in Congo, Africa Muslim militants from the Allied Democratic Forces, a terrorist group, launched a brutal assault in North Kivu, Congo, Africa on March 8th, killing at least nine people, reports International Christian Concern. The attack began at dawn, catching villagers by surprise. Armed with guns and machetes, the Muslims targeted the farming community, swiftly overpowering the residents. The assault, which included the destruction of homes, left dozens of families displaced, worsening an already dire humanitarian crisis in the region. Eastern Congo remains plagued by violence, with more than 100 armed groups vying for control of the region's valuable resources. The innocent civilians continue to bear the heaviest cost. Despite repeated calls for action, the Congo government has been unable to protect its citizens from these frequent raids. According to Open Doors, Congo, Africa is the 35th most dangerous country worldwide for Christians. King Charles hospitalized from cancer treatment side effects Buckingham Palace has confirmed that King Charles III was taken to the hospital in a car yesterday after suffering predictable side effects from his cancer treatment, reports The U.S. Sun. He has had to cancel a string of engagements set for today in Birmingham, England. And he was unable to greet Ambassadors of three different nations yesterday. The King was at home at Clarence House last night where he was said to be in good form and continuing to work on State Papers and making calls from his study. (Look at the rooms inside Clarence House). On January 17, 2024, Buckingham Palace announced the King was diagnosed with an enlarged prostate. Then, on February 5th, the Palace revealed that the doctors discovered that he had cancer while operating on his prostate. Please pray for the full recovery of King Charles with minimal side effects. Trump affirmed two God-given genders, opposition to transgenderism President Donald Trump criticized gender ideology during a recent Women's History Month event held at the White House on March 25th. He reaffirmed the two genders created by God. TRUMP: “On Day One, I made the official policy of the United States government that there are only two genders: male and female. Is there anybody that disagrees with that in this room? (laughter) I was thinking, maybe somebody from the press might raise their head. I don't think so. “For four long years, we had an administration that tried to abolish the very concept of womanhood and replace it with radical gender ideology. They destroyed women's spaces and even tried to replace the word ‘mother' with the term ‘birther person.' A mother became a ‘birther person.' “Under the Trump administration, we're ending the Marxist war on women, and we're protecting women's rights, defending women's dignity, and standing up for the American moms and daughters.” Trump also made a definitive statement about men who pretend to be women. TRUMP: “No matter how many surgeries you have or chemicals you inject, if you're born with male DNA in every cell of your body, you can never become a woman! You're not going to be a woman. (applause) And that's why, last month, I proudly signed a historic Executive Order to ban men from competing in women's sports. And it was very popular.” Trump withdraws Stefanik's nomination to be U.N. Ambassador President Donald Trump has withdrawn the nomination of Republican Congresswoman Elise Stefanik of New York to be U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations, reports The Epoch Times. Trump announced the move on Truth Social on March 27th, citing the narrow majority that the GOP has in the House of Representatives. He wrote, “As we advance our America First Agenda, it is essential that we maintain EVERY Republican Seat in Congress. I have asked Elise, as one of my biggest Allies, to remain in Congress to help me deliver Historic Tax Cuts, GREAT Jobs, Record Economic Growth, a Secure Border, Energy Dominance, Peace Through Strength, and much more, so we can MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN. With a very tight Majority, I don't want to take a chance on anyone else running for Elise's seat.” Trump said Stefanik will join his administration in the future. Manhattan's Planned Parenthood closes after years of pro-life prayer After years of monthly prayer processions, often led by a pro-life activist priest named Fidelis Moscinski, Planned Parenthood of Greater New York has announced it will be selling its SoHo building and shutting down its Manhattan abortion mill, reports LifeSiteNews.com. Wendy Stark, the New York abortion giant CEO, claimed the decision was made due to “the gap between inflation and stagnant (Medicaid/insurance) reimbursement rates.” Christian pro-lifers, like David who fought Goliath, know that you cannot continue to mock the living God and expect to be victorious. Psalm 34:16 says, “The face of the Lord is against those who do evil, to cut off the memory of them from the Earth.” Three survivors of Alaskan plane crash rescued And finally, fearing the worst after a prop plane was reported overdue for landing in Alaska last Sunday, search and rescue volunteers searched for the pilot and two children of elementary and middle school ages who had been on a sightseeing tour, reports Good News Network. Dale Eicher was one of the locals who heard the call for help. EICHER: “I saw the Facebook post about the missing plane and decided to go look for it.” Providentially, that singular Facebook post about the missing father and kids had been re-shared 420 times. John Morris, the father of the missing pilot, told CNN affiliate, Alaska's News Source, that his son's cell phone sent its final ping at about 5:00 p.m. Sunday evening over Tustumena Lake. Within an hour of flying, Eicher saw them. EICHER: “They were walking across the lake when I flew over the plane.” The Piper PA-12 Super Cruiser had crash landed on the frozen surface of Tustumena Lake. EICHER: “I was really shocked. I did expect that we would find them, but I didn't expect that we would find them alive, for sure. I've done a little bit of search and rescue before, and it doesn't always turn out this well.” The three survivors were taken to a Kenai Peninsula area hospital and treated for “non-life-threatening injuries.” When the reporter asked what motivated Dale Eicher to search for the missing plane, he said this. EICHER: “It's the right thing to do. I do volunteer with the Civil Air Patrol some. And I have my own plane.” Indeed, it was the right thing to do! After all, as Genesis 1:27 articulates, each of us, including those three plane crash survivors in Alaska, have been created in God's image and are worthy of rescuing.

Cabinet to establish agency for strengthening personal data protection The Cabinet has approved a proposal paving the way ((為…)創造條件) for the establishment of an independent agency tasked with strengthening personal data protection in Taiwan.

The head of the planned agency's preparatory office, says the commission will include five to seven commissioners serving for renewable four-year terms .. .. and it will primarily be tasked with handling cases of personal data breaches in both government agencies and private enterprises that "do not have a specific competent authority. Full-length photo of Taiwan's tallest tree The Taiwan Forestry Research Institute has unveiled a full-length photo of Taiwan's tallest tree. The tree is a Taiwania nicknamed "Heaven Sword" and measures 84.1-meters in height. The forestry research institute says photo was made possible thanks to its collaboration with a National Cheng Kung University team nicknamed "Taiwan champion trees," and Steven Pearce, the leader of Australia's The Tree Project. According to the institute, the full photographing of the tree was completed in January of 2023. Institute Deputy Director Wu Meng-ling says the research team spent six days climbing mountains and trekking up the Da'an River to reach the tree before they could begin photographing it. The tree was located using airborne light detection and ranging technology - which can obtain (獲得) three-dimensional information over a large area in a short time, which in turn helps to measure the height of trees. US Rubio on Signalgate "Big Mistake" US Secretary of State Marco Rubio says someone made a big mistake (錯誤) by adding a journalist to a group chat of top US officials ahead of US airstrikes on Houthi targets in Yemen.

Carney said Thursday that Trump reached out Wednesday night to schedule a call, and the two leaders would speak "in the course of the next day or two." Carney was sworn in (宣誓就職) as Canada's new prime minister on March 14th, but he hasn't spoken with Trump since taking office. Trump has declared a trade war on Canada and continues to call for the United States' northern neighbor to become the 51st U.S. state, a position that has infuriated Canadians.

The image of King Charles III welcoming Volodymyr Zelensky to Sandringham evokes memories of his grandfather, George VI, standing firm as Britain held the line before the United States entered the war. Since then, Europe has relied on Washington's security umbrella. But that era may be coming to an end. Last Friday, Ukraine's president was caught off guard on live television, confronted with rhetoric strikingly similar to Kremlin talking points that shifted blame for the war onto Kyiv and NATO. What was supposed to be a solemn debrief of PM Keir Starmer's visit to Washington instead turned into an urgent strategy session in London. If NATO's future is in doubt, is Europe truly prepared to defend itself? And with Trump appearing to align himself with Putin, is the continent now closer than ever to direct confrontation with Russia?

In 2001, Virginia Giuffre alleged that Prince Andrew sexually abused her when she was 17, following an evening at London's Tramp nightclub. She claimed they danced together at the club before going to Ghislaine Maxwell's Belgravia residence, where the assault purportedly occurred. Prince Andrew has consistently denied these allegations, asserting he has no recollection of meeting Giuffre and stating he was at home after attending a Pizza Express in Woking on the night in question. A potential witness, Shukri Walker, came forward, expressing willingness to testify that she saw Prince Andrew at Tramp nightclub with a young girl around the time of the alleged incident. Despite these claims, the prince maintains his innocence.Regarding public funds, Prince Andrew received an annual allowance of £249,000 from the Queen, which was cut from April 2023, and a Royal Navy pension of £20,000. In 2022, he reached an out-of-court settlement with Virginia Giuffre, reportedly amounting to £12 million. The Treasury confirmed that no public money was used for this settlement. Following his withdrawal from public duties, King Charles III eliminated Prince Andrew's £1 million annual personal allowance and ceased funding his personal security, which had cost several million pounds annually. These financial adjustments have significantly reduced Prince Andrew's reliance on public funds.

Armed Forces Invictus Centre, Abuja, Nigeria As the Duke of Sussex, 40, prepares to head to Vancouver, British Columbia, for the next Invictus Games, one of the newer nations to join the Paralympic-style contest for wounded, injured and sick veterans and armed services members has taken the next step forward. Ground has been broken at Nigeria's new rehabilitation building for wounded service members, called the Armed Forces Invictus Centre. Kick-off for the construction of the venue in Abuja began in January 2025. King Charles & Prince William Throw Tantrums While Yes Ma'am: The Secret Life of Royal Servants kinda goes in on everyone, author Tom Quinn (in an excerpt from The Times) said that King Charles and Prince William are "prone to tantrums if things are not done to their liking." He also spoke to a former staff member who said, “They both get irritated very quickly. They are very picky. It comes naturally to them.” Kate Middleton Treats William Like a Fourth Child One former staff member claims (in an excerpt from The Times) that William's prone to tantrums if things don't go according to plan, adding that Kate treats her husband like a child: “I don't know where William would be without Kate — she hasn't had everything done for her throughout her life, so she calms him down when he gets a bit fractious. She said he sometimes has to be treated as her fourth child.” Prince Andrew New Court Filings Prince Andrew has been hit by a double blow after two new court filings heaped further pressure on his relationship with King Charles III. The first appeared to show him telling Jeffrey Epstein "we'll play some more soon!!!!" in an email sent after he claims to have cut ties with the New York financier. And in the second it emerged Prince Andrew was hoping to raise billions of dollars in China in part using his relationship with Yang Tengbo, who British intelligence officers now believe is a Chinese spy. __________________________________________________________ Sources: People | Prince Harry Celebrates Another Key Step in His Invictus Games Journey: https://people.com/prince-harry-celebrates-invictus-games-center-nigeria-exclusive-8786296 Cosmopolitan | Prince William, King Charles Have Tantrums: https://www.cosmopolitan.com/entertainment/celebs/a63686751/prince-william-king-charles-tantrums/ Cosmopolitan | Kate Middleton Treats Prince William Like a Fourth Child: https://www.cosmopolitan.com/entertainment/celebs/a63686858/kate-middleton-treats-prince-william-like-fourth-child/ Newsweek | Prince Andrew's New PR Car Crash is a Headache for King Charles: https://www.newsweek.com/prince-andrew-pr-car-crash-king-charles-2025041
