Commentators are warning that Sarah Ferguson could pose a new risk to the British royal family if the former Duchess of York decides to publish another memoir.Writing in The Royalist, Tom Sykes argues that financial pressure and public scrutiny could tempt Ferguson to produce a revealing book about her decades inside royal circles. Her 1996 memoir My Story caused major tension within the family and reportedly damaged her friendship with Diana, Princess of Wales.Experts say Ferguson's long proximity to the royal household means she holds extensive knowledge about private events and relationships within the monarchy. One royal commentator warned that the family understands she “knows where the bodies are buried.”With Prince Harry's memoir Spare reportedly earning about $20 million, publishing insiders believe a similar tell-all from Ferguson could attract enormous interest — and potentially create another major challenge for the monarchy.Get episodes of Palace Intrigue by becommming a paid subscriber on Apple Podcasts.

A new biography reveals that Carolyn Bessette once encouraged John F. Kennedy Junior to reach out to Prince William and Prince Harry after the death of their mother, Diana, Princess of Wales, in 1997.According to the book Once Upon a Time: The Captivating Life of Carolyn Bessette-Kennedy by Elizabeth Beller, Bessette believed Kennedy might offer support to the young princes as they faced overwhelming media attention and public grief.The author writes that Diana had reportedly admired Kennedy's ability to handle intense press scrutiny with dignity, which prompted Bessette to suggest he offer condolences. Kennedy, however, reportedly hesitated because he did not personally know the princes and felt unsure how to approach such a deeply personal tragedy.The story highlights an unusual moment of connection between two of the most famous families of the late 1990s, both dealing with relentless media attention at the time.Get episodes of Palace Intrigue by becommming a paid subscriber on Apple Podcasts.

Meghan Markle is set to headline a women-only weekend retreat in Sydney during her April trip to Australia, with tickets starting at about $1,800 and VIP packages running around $2,100 for front-row seats and a group photo. The event is being marketed as “a girls' weekend like no other,” complete with yoga, meditation, manifestation workshops, a gala dinner and a fireside-style chat with the Duchess of Sussex.The paid appearance is fueling fresh questions about the Sussex brand, especially as Prince Harry is also due to speak at a separate ticketed event in Melbourne. Critics say the couple's mix of humanitarian messaging and premium lifestyle commerce feels increasingly disconnected. We also look at fresh expert warnings that Meghan's As Ever brand lacks a clear identity, why some consultants think she may be “stronger alone” than alongside Harry right now, and the latest eyebrow-raising promotion offering free chocolate only if customers spend at least $150.Plus: a columnist argues Meghan's social media approach with Princess Lilibet amounts to “performative privacy.”Get episodes of Palace Intrigue by becommming a paid subscriber on Apple Podcasts.

Sarah Ferguson is reportedly leaning on longtime friend Priscilla Presley for support as the York fallout deepens, and the friendship is now raising eyebrows because of Presley's long association with Scientology. Sources say Ferguson has not joined anything, but is said to be curious and “just listening” while looking for guidance and stability during a chaotic time. Presley is also reportedly urging Fergie to write a memoir and joking about setting her up with “eligible American bachelors.”Meanwhile, Prince Harry's High Court case produced a surprise detail as evidence emerged that he once socialized with a Mail on Sunday journalist now caught up in the newspaper litigation.Plus: Prince William hands honors to Warwick Davis and Lioness Alex Greenwood, Queen Camilla hosts finalists from the BBC's 500 Words competition at Windsor Castle, and Buckingham Palace goes help wanted with a new kitchen porter job that comes with live-in accommodation, meals and palace perks.Get episodes of Palace Intrigue by becommming a paid subscriber on Apple Podcasts.

New details are emerging about why Netflix stepped away from Meghan Markle's lifestyle brand As Ever. According to insiders, the company struggled to see how the products fit alongside its entertainment franchises and believed the brand failed to connect with its audience.One source told the Daily Mail executives even explored featuring As Ever merchandise inside Netflix's upcoming “Netflix House” retail locations in Philadelphia and Dallas, but the idea reportedly stalled because there was little enthusiasm for the brand.Critics say the split could damage Meghan's credibility with corporate partners. Reputation consultant Eric Schiffer called the development “celebrity brand suicide in a cashmere apron,” arguing that losing Netflix removes the prestige backing the venture.Despite the criticism, both Netflix and Meghan's team insist the separation was amicable and say the Duchess will now expand the brand independently.Get episodes of Palace Intrigue by becommming a paid subscriber on Apple Podcasts.

Reports suggest Andrew Mountbatten Windsor is preparing an aggressive defense strategy following his arrest, with insiders claiming he may rely on sensitive information about royal circles if investigators demand a full accounting of his activities. One source said Andrew believes he should not be the only person facing scrutiny for social networks that included other powerful figures.Meanwhile Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie are said to be holding private discussions about how to navigate the growing fallout from the Epstein scandal and their parents' connections to it. Sources say the sisters are trying to balance loyalty to their family with protecting their own reputations and careers.The situation has also fueled speculation about Eugenie's future, including the possibility of relocating to the United States and even exploring potential collaborations with Prince Harry and Meghan Markle — a move that could deepen tensions with the future reign of Prince William.Separately, Andrew's new life is becoming clearer as security upgrades are installed at a farmhouse on the Sandringham estate where he is expected to relocate, while staff have reportedly been instructed to address him simply as “Sir” as his household shrinks dramatically.Get episodes of Palace Intrigue by becommming a paid subscriber on Apple Podcasts.

EP.620The discussion begins by confronting one of the biggest challenges within the “truth movement,” its own fragmentation. The guest argues that division, ego, and infighting have been deliberately engineered by provocateurs operating under elite influence. According to this view, the constant bickering among truth-seekers serves the interests of an unseen global power structure that thrives on confusion, distraction, and control.From there, the conversation dives into two of history's most dramatic and disputed tragedies, the deaths of Princess Diana and the sinking of the Titanic, framing both as carefully staged events designed to advance elite agendas. The guest suggests Diana was eliminated by royal and intelligence operatives because of her influence, independence, and outspoken humanitarianism, particularly her campaign against landmines, which allegedly threatened powerful financial interests tied to warfare and defense.He draws a parallel with the Titanic, describing it as another operation shrouded in myth but rooted in manipulation not a random maritime disaster, but an event orchestrated to eliminate key figures who opposed the creation of the Federal Reserve and to demonstrate control through fear and spectacle. Both incidents, he claims, reveal how the same interconnected network of global financiers, intelligence elites, and royal power works above governments and beyond borders.The larger message: these events, whether on the open sea, in a Paris tunnel, or within the digital chaos of today's media, are not isolated. They're chapters in a long, hidden history of engineered control, in which the appearance of tragedy conceals the architecture of power.

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have confirmed they will return to Australia in mid-April, marking their first visit to the country since their hugely publicized 2018 royal tour.The Duke and Duchess of Sussex are expected to take part in a mix of private business, philanthropic and media engagements in Sydney and Melbourne. Meghan is also rumored to appear on the Australian podcast Her Best Life.The trip is already stirring debate because it will take place at roughly the same time King Charles theThird is expected to visit the United States. Royal insider Deep Crown notes that the timing will inevitably create a competing global spotlight.Supporters say Harry and Meghan's more informal approach to visits helps them connect with younger audiences and humanitarian groups. Critics argue the couple continue to operate like a parallel royal court while no longer representing the monarchy.The visit comes seven years after their 2018 South Pacific tour, when the newly married couple drew huge crowds and announced Meghan's pregnancy with Prince Archie.Get episodes of Palace Intrigue by becommming a paid subscriber on Apple Podcasts.

Prince William is reportedly determined to see the scandal surrounding Andrew Mountbatten Windsor fully resolved before he becomes king — even if that means allowing the legal system to examine the case openly.Sources cited by Radar Online say the Prince of Wales believes the controversy has dragged on far too long and that the monarchy cannot afford to carry unresolved questions into the next reign. One insider said William views Andrew as “toxic” to the future of the institution and wants the matter confronted directly rather than quietly managed behind palace walls.At the same time, new rumors continue to circulate that King Charles the Third could step down because of the strain surrounding the scandal and his ongoing health concerns. Royal insider Deep Crown cautions that abdication would strip Charles of the legal protections that come with the Crown, suggesting a regency would be a far more likely constitutional path if the King were to step back from active duties.Meanwhile, the Wales family has also fueled speculation about Prince George's future education after visiting Marlborough College, while Princess Anne drew praise online for joking about a near-hug with Scotland's rugby captain during the Six Nations.Get episodes of Palace Intrigue by becommming a paid subscriber on Apple Podcasts.

Meghan Markle has reportedly ended Netflix's involvement in her lifestyle brand As Ever, with both sides insisting the split is amicable. The Duchess is said to want full control as the company expands, but critics are not buying the idea that this was her decision. One industry source bluntly told Page Six, “Her show did not go on so it did not make sense to continue the partnership.”We break down the dueling narratives, the rising web traffic figures, the harsh reaction from social media, and why even The Hollywood Reporter was mocking the split. Plus, reputation expert Eric Schiffer calls the move “celebrity brand suicide in a cashmere apron,” and argues Meghan now carries “the scent of high-maintenance disappointment.”Also in this episode: a look back at the Sussexes' string of stalled or underperforming ventures, from The Bench to Spotify to Meet Me at the Lake, Meghan's awkwardly timed “mood boosting daily rituals” email, and fresh questions after an As Ever bookmark sold out in under a minute.TUESDA Get episodes of Palace Intrigue by becommming a paid subscriber on Apple Podcasts.

Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor reportedly believes it is “deeply unfair” that public opinion has turned against him, with historian Andrew Lownie saying the disgraced royal still sees himself as “anointed” and struggles to understand the backlash.We also revisit the disastrous 2019 Newsnight interview, with producer Sam McAlister revealing that Princess Beatrice played a crucial behind-the-scenes role in getting it over the line.

Questions are growing about Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's production deal with Netflix as several projects remain stuck in development. An adaptation of the novel Meet Me at the Lake — reportedly acquired for about $3 million — still has no director or cast attached nearly three years after the announcement, while another project based on The Wedding Date is also stalled.At the same time, the couple's humanitarian trip to Jordan is drawing fresh scrutiny. A public relations expert says the visit was “casually competent, but not strategic,” arguing it followed the familiar formula of carefully staged humanitarian appearances without producing a defining moment that could shift public perception.The trip also sparked political controversy after Harry's remarks about humanitarian aid to Gaza prompted a public rebuke from Israel's deputy foreign minister, who invited him to visit Israel and “see for yourself.”Meanwhile, commentator Maureen Callahan accused Meghan of exploiting images from a hospital visit to a Gaza burn victim, calling the moment “nothing short of exploitation,” while reports claim Prince William is privately frustrated by what one source described as a “Diana 2.0 act.”Plus: Andrew reportedly pushed for Princess Eugenie's wedding to match Prince Harry's in scale, officials confirm he cannot legally lose the Freedom of the City of London honour, and royal watchers speculate that Sarah Ferguson may hold insight into private tensions between the Sussexes and the wider family.Get episodes of Palace Intrigue by becommming a paid subscriber on Apple Podcasts.

King Charles and Queen Camilla will lead senior members of the Royal Family at Westminster Abbey today for the annual Commonwealth Day service, joined by the Prince and Princess of Wales, Princess Anne and other working royals before an audience of about 1,800 guests representing the 56 nations of the Commonwealth.But the BBC has decided not to broadcast the ceremony live this year, opting instead to air Escape to the Country in the time slot. The broadcaster says the move reflects financial pressures, while critics such as royal author Ingrid Seward call the decision “ridiculous and appalling.” Royal Insider Deep Crown warns the real danger is that the Commonwealth risks drifting toward irrelevance if even its biggest ceremonial moment struggles to command attention.Meanwhile, diplomatic sources say officials in Washington hope a future royal visit could help repair strained relations between the United States and the United Kingdom, with interest in potential trips by both the King and the Prince and Princess of Wales.Plus: behind the scenes, King Charles is said to have a quiet strategy for managing the Andrew crisis while ensuring royal duties continue uninterrupted — and Prince William accidentally creates a viral moment after mishearing a bakery customer's name as “Juicy.”Get episodes of Palace Intrigue by becommming a paid subscriber on Apple Podcasts.

Prince William is reportedly weighing legal and institutional moves to derail a proposed Netflix documentary marking 30 years since Princess Diana's death, with insiders saying he finds the idea “deeply distressing.” Harry is said to believe he has every right to tell his mother's story — palace permission not required — while Meghan's reported involvement and Netflix's backing have only inflamed tensions. Paul Burrell claims William has deliberately widened the gap as he prepares for the throne, and Deep Crown argues Harry traded a powerful royal role for California branding.

As turmoil surrounding Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor continues, some royal watchers say King Charles has found a new “secret weapon” in Prince Edward. The Duke of Edinburgh has quietly carried out duties from the Winter Olympics in Italy to cultural engagements in London, earning praise as a “steady hand” within a shrinking roster of working royals.Royal commentator Jennie Bond says Edward and Sophie are becoming increasingly important to the monarchy, while our Royal Insider Deep Crown argues the label is misleading: the Edinburghs are not a “secret weapon,” he says, but “load-bearing architecture” for a royal institution with a dangerously thin bench.Also in this episode: Sophie's engagements in Northern Ireland, lifestyle media fascination with her appearance, protests near Buckingham Palace honouring Virginia Giuffre, and new questions about whether Sarah Ferguson could be interviewed by investigators as the Andrew inquiry continues.Get episodes of Palace Intrigue by becommming a paid subscriber on Apple Podcasts.

Prince William is reportedly beginning to operate with the authority of a future monarch, quietly assembling a small inner circle and managing strategy largely within his own household rather than through King Charles's court. Sources say the Prince of Wales does not see himself as “an understudy waiting in the wings,” but is already setting priorities for his eventual reign.We also revisit the 2012 scandal that pushed William into legal battle after topless photographs of Kate were published in France, the crucial support William says he receives from Carole and Michael Middleton, and the difficult decision looming over Prince George's next school following a recent death at Eton.Plus: a claim that Kate has “never been close” to Beatrice and Eugenie, and the Royal Family prepares to present a united front at next week's Commonwealth Day service.Get episodes of Palace Intrigue by becommming a paid subscriber on Apple Podcasts.

Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie are reportedly being frozen out of royal life following the arrest of their father, Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor. Reports suggest the sisters will not appear in the Royal Ascot carriage procession and may be excluded from public-facing royal events “for the foreseeable future.” Friends say they were “blindsided,” with one describing the ongoing saga as a “never-ending  s*** show.”Commentators are divided. Some argue the sisters are paying the price for a scandal not of their making, while others say the monarchy must protect itself from damaging optics as new Epstein material circulates.

Four fresh Sussex stories in one tight round-up. Reports claim Prince Harry and Meghan's Jordan visit irritated officials in Washington because it landed during escalating regional tension, with one source calling their presence “unhelpful” and “unnecessary noise.”Critics also branded the trip a “photo op,” while Angela Levin said, “I think it's disgusting,” and alleged some people connected to events in Jordan “are Hamas,” a claim for which no public evidence has been presented.Next, Meghan's As Ever brand takes incoming after a new jam promo photo: commenters mocked the “three spreads” caption against a picture showing five spoons, with one joking, “Either she can't count or two of them are doubled up.”Then the numbers: SimilarWeb data cited by Newsweek suggests traffic to As Ever has climbed from 196,831 visits in October to 268,200 in January, but about two-thirds of visitors reportedly come from outside the United States, where international shipping is not currently offered.And finally, yes, handwriting analysis is now content: a graphologist says Meghan and Harry's notes in Jordan show they are “two very different people,” with Meghan described as more presentation-focused and assertive, and Harry as more reserved and pragmatic.Get episodes of Palace Intrigue by becommming a paid subscriber on Apple Podcasts.

Reports claim Harry and Meghan are encouraging Beatrice and Eugenie to speak publicly about the Epstein fallout, a move some fear could detonate new family divisions. Jan Moir says the Jordan tour made the Sussexes look like “Windsor saints,” while Tessa Dunlop argues William could end the exile with a single public gesture. Attention also turns to the King's high-risk U.S. visit, where lawyers, politicians and the First Amendment could collide with royal protocol.Get episodes of Palace Intrigue by becommming a paid subscriber on Apple Podcasts.

Send a text Ep 276 -- Barbara Adler exposes Epstein party details — the supermodel who was inside Jeffrey Epstein's parties from 2004 to 2009 tells all. Prince Andrew, Naomi Campbell, David Blaine confirmed in the Epstein files, Victoria's Secret secrets, and the unpublished Michael Wolff article connecting Epstein to Princess Diana and Bill Clinton. Barbara Adler was the face of Abercrombie & Fitch and worked the Victoria's Secret catalog — her ex-fiancé was David Blaine's producer and everything she said about Blaine has now been confirmed in the files that just dropped. She saw Prince Andrew at the parties with young models and what the girls called him behind his back is worse than I expected. She tells you what you had to do to become a VS Angel — and why she was blacklisted for refusing. She gets into physical altercations with Naomi Campbell multiple times and what she walked into at 4am at Naomi's apartment will disturb you — plus a connection between Naomi, Diddy, and someone very powerful I need to dig into more. She tells me about the night Damon Dash drugged her at a party with Diddy and Jay-Z and what would have happened if one model hadn't woken her up. Janice Dickinson shows up in this doing something at Cipriani that nobody's talking about. I share my Gene Simmons and Cuba Gooding Jr. stories. Then I finish with the gold I found in the Epstein Files the actual blue print described by Epstein's reputable friend about his relationships with everyone post Florida arrest— Epstein had his arm around Princess Diana the night of the revenge dress, he was on the Trilateral Commission, and he was recovering looted monies for someone who sounds like a world leader. Bill Clinton is all over this and it doesn't match what he said at the hearings.

I love weird. I especially love weird when it incorporates my favorite moments in pop culture. So when I recently saw Linus Karp and Joseph Martin's live show "Gwyneth Goes Skiing," a sort of musical retelling of Gwyneth Paltrow's 2023 ski crash trial, I knew I needed to chat with them. Turns out Karp and Martin are a pop culture nerd's favorite duo, because they've done tons of shows that scratch that weird, nostalgic itch: shows like "Diana: The Untold and Untrue Story," about Princess Diana, and "Fit Prince," a spoof on Hallmark made-for-TV movies. I chatted with this comedy duo and couple about pop culture, where they come up with ideas for their shows, and whether Paltrow herself has ever come to see it.

Fresh off their Jordan trip, Harry and Meghan pop up virtually at the NAACP Image Awards, present a digital civil rights prize and double down on Gaza aid messaging. But reports swirl that Jordan's King Abdullah the Second and Crown Prince Hussein declined to meet them, leaving only a brief encounter with Princess Basma. Meghan swaps heels for $140 suede boat shoes at a refugee camp, dials back jewelry at World Central Kitchen, and earns both praise and eye-rolls in the British press. As nostalgia pieces call Harry the Windsor who “refreshes the parts others cannot reach,” betting markets suggest Meghan's lifestyle brand As Ever could pivot into fashion. Meanwhile, a childhood letter from Queen Elizabeth the Second heads to auction, a reminder of a very different royal era.Get episodes of Palace Intrigue by becommming a paid subscriber on Apple Podcasts.

Today, if you’re an Australian with even a drop of British or Irish blood, Amelia has a warning that might cost you hundreds of dollars.And, is it okay for celebrities to ask us for money? After the deaths of millennial TV icons James Van Der Beek and Eric Dane, their families have started GoFundMe campaigns — and not everyone’s happy about it. Holly, Jessie, and Amelia have very different takes on whether it’s okay to solicit for donations when you live on a multi-million dollar ranch. Also, the new Married At First Sight villain,Tyson has landed. Jessie thinks his quest for a 'submissive' woman and his 'manosphere' vibes reflect what women are dealing with out in the dating world. While Holly‘s pearls are clutched about the podcast he’s doubtless going to start when he leaves the show. So, ‘should’ this man be on primetime TV? Plus, a listener dilemma we can’t stop talking about. Vanessa is overwhelmed, over-worked, and considering quitting her job because her husband’s 'big career' has left her doing 100 percent of the heavy-lifting at home. Jessie says "life is long, just quit," while Holly is asking: if every woman is making the 'choice' to scale back, is it actually a choice at all?Plus, we deep dive into PHAARC — the probably not real (but very relatable) 'medical' condition currently ruining your work life.

That can all change here. There are two kinds of people: those obsessed with Carolyn Bessette Kennedy (CBK) and those who just don’t get it. Mia Freeman and Amelia Lester are firmly in the first camp. From Calvin Klein salesgirl to the most scrutinised woman in New York, Carolyn became a 90s' style legend — without ever giving an interview. Her marriage to John F. Kennedy Jr. turned her into paparazzi prey, her minimal wardrobe into a fashion blueprint, and her silence into an industry of speculation. On today's subs episode, Mia and Amelia dive into Love Story: John F. Kennedy Jr. and Carolyn Bessette, the long-awaited dramatisation that had CBK obsessives in meltdown over wigs, hemlines and handbags. The show is a love story, but it’s also a slow-motion warning about paparazzi culture, pre-social media fame, and a woman who saw celebrity as a liability.Remember, this is your free sample of today's subs episode.

In ancient astrology, eclipses were viewed as omens of the death or downfall of prominent people. In this episode, I want to go over some examples from recent history and current news that demonstrate that this ancient observation is still true to this day. I recorded this on February 19, 2026, right as the big news hit that Prince Andrew was just arrested in connection with the Jeffrey Epstein files, which happened only two days after a solar eclipse in Aquarius. We'll dive into what I define as "eclipse season," a roughly month-long period that starts about a week before the first eclipse and ends about a week after the second eclipse. During this time, it is incredibly common to see prominent or political figures suffering some sort of public downfall. We are going to walk through several recent examples of this, from the arrest of Jeffrey Epstein in 2019, to the collapse of Sam Bankman-Fried's crypto company FTX, to the raid on Sean "Diddy" Combs' mansions. We will also look at how this applies to major historical events, including the deaths of Princess Diana and Pope John Paul I, as well as the assassination of Abraham Lincoln. But as we'll discuss, a downfall is not always permanent. Because an eclipse is a conjunction, it represents the closing of one cycle, but also the laying of the seeds or foundations for something completely new to grow. Since our current eclipse season is not over yet, I highly recommend paying attention to the new beginnings taking root in your own life right now, even if they do not seem that momentous yet.
