Nov. 20 2025, Published 4:35 p.m. ET Quitting the royal family more than five years ago has only made Meghan Markle more emboldened about her use of her title, as she has it announced upon entering rooms today, RadarOnline.com can reveal. The ex-royal, 44, is still into the Duchess of Sussex’s styling she was given upon marrying Prince Harry, as it has been revealed she uses it to share her presence, even in empty spaces. Shocking Title ‘Announcement’ In a profile by Harper’s Bazaar published on Wednesday, November 19, one anecdote from the reporter glaringly stood out. “We’re in a grand brownstone on the Upper East Side that belongs to one of Meghan’s friends. When I enter, the house manager announces, ‘Meghan, Duchess of Sussex,’ even though we appear to be the only other two people in the house,” Kaitlyn Greenidge shared about Markle’s display of her title. She went on to describe how the two tried to decide where in the house to have their chat, with Markle gesturing “toward the second floor of the house, which is accessed via a glass elevator in the living room,” to show the rarified air the Netflix star moves in. Earlier in the piece, it was clear how Markle wants others to address her by her royal title, despite quitting the monarchy with Harry in 2020 and moving to California. While meeting up with a group of 11 and 12-year-old girls from a STEM academy at a museum outing, Greenridge wrote about Markle’s entrance: “A golf cart pulls up, the gravel crunching beneath its tires. ‘The Duchess of Sussex,’ someone in the scrum announces.” ‘So Cringe!’ Royal watchers were stunned by Markle’s blatant use of her title, despite having no current connection to the royal family other than her marriage to Harry. She infamously only worked 72 days as a senior member of the family before quitting, 20 months after Markle and the prince married in 2018. “Imagine being so f—— full of yourself that you have someone else’s staff announce you with a formal title as if you’re making an entrance to some grand event. So gross & nauseating,” one person sneered on X. “The best part of the article is Meghan demanding to be announced by her full title (in the US, no less) when the reporter arrives. So cringe!” a second sighed. “Meghan clings to the title, like a toddler clinging to a pacifier,” a third person snarked. “Actually, can’t wait for her titles to be stripped. The way she abuses that title is just pathetic,” a fourth huffed, while a fifth fumed, “She is an American in America, why the hell is she using that title here, ridiculous!” Markle Previously Claimed No ‘Attachment’ to Royal Title Others brought up Markle’s own claim that titles meant nothing to her during the former Deal or No Deal briefcase girl’s infamous March 2021 interview with Oprah Winfrey, where she and Harry viciously bashed the royal family. The Los Angeles native proudly proclaimed at the time, “All the grandeur surrounding this stuff is an attachment I don’t personally have. I’ve been a waitress, an actress, a princess, and a Duchess. I’ve always still just been Meghan, right? I’ve been clear on who I am, independent of all that stuff, and the most important title I’ll ever have is mom.” It’s been widely reported that Harry’s brother, Prince William, intends to strip the couple of their Duke and Duchess of Sussex titles when he ascends to the throne.

Prince Andrew Begged Staff and Pals to ‘Arrange Girls’ to Have Sex With Him — With ‘Blondes’ and ‘Ballerinas’ His Favored Type
**Prince Andrew Allegedly Had Network of Allies Arranging Women for Him, New Claims Reveal**
*Published: Oct. 23, 2025, 4:00 p.m. ET*
Prince Andrew reportedly had a network of close allies who “arranged girls” for him to have sex with, according to new claims revealed by RadarOnline.com. The disgraced royal, nicknamed “Randy Andy,” allegedly begged staff and friends to hook him up with various women, showing a particular preference for “blondes” and “ballerinas.”
### Preference for ‘Blondes’ and ‘Ballerinas’
The former Duke of York, who was forced last week to give up all his titles amid the ongoing Jeffrey Epstein scandal, urged everyone around him to find women he could date. According to biographer Andrew Lownie, this behavior led to Andrew sleeping with women “he didn’t realize were prostitutes.”
Even his personal protection officers (PPOs), paid for by British taxpayers, were reportedly involved in these efforts. In Lownie’s new book, *The Rise and Fall of the House of York*, he writes:
> “He would spy out an attractive ballerina at the Royal Ballet and then send his (PPO) … to invite her to meet the prince.”
Other tactics reportedly included sending aides to invite women to his table at London nightclub Chinawhite or to join him in his hotel suite while abroad.
### Following Orders
Lownie also notes that Andrew’s staff frequently requested that attractive women be invited to events. A private secretary reportedly specified, “He likes blondes,” to which one consul responded, “I’m a diplomat, not a pimp.”
Andrew, 65, resigned as the U.K.’s special trade envoy back in 2011 after criticism of his ties to multimillionaire pedophile Jeffrey Epstein. However, during his travels in this role, Lownie claims:
> “It was rumored Andrew brought women with him and that he liked to stay in hotels rather than the (Royal) Residence, as it gave him more independence in whom he saw, whether women or businessmen.”
Stories circulate of escorts, masquerading as professional women, being provided for him to choose from.
### Andrew Always on the Prowl?
Andrew was also reportedly close to Epstein’s associate and madam Ghislaine Maxwell. He allegedly “exploited” his royal connections, including his position as patron of the English National Ballet (ENB). According to one ENB staffer, Andrew had been somewhat “foisted” on the organization after Princess Diana passed away in 1997.
His interest, it seems, was more in the dancers than the ballet itself. Lownie writes:
> “When he did attend, he insisted on choosing who would sit with him in the royal box.”
The ballet official added:
> “The names were not given to the ENB. It was suspected they consisted of mistresses, one a yoga teacher, and various businessmen. The chairman was allowed in at intermission for a drink.”
### Allegations by Epstein Victim Virginia Giuffre
Virginia Giuffre, a victim of Jeffrey Epstein who tragically died by suicide in April at age 41, claimed she was forced to sleep with Andrew three times. She reiterated these claims in her memoir, published posthumously this week.
Andrew, who settled a civil suit with Giuffre in the U.S. in 2022 by paying out millions, continues to deny these allegations.
### Andrew Relinquishes Titles Amid Ongoing Accusations
In the days before the publication of Lownie’s book, Andrew announced he was giving up his titles, including the Duke of York. He stated that the “continued accusations about me distract from the work of His Majesty and the Royal Family.”

EXCLUSIVE: ‘Oh, Just P—- Off’ — King Charles’ Extraordinary ‘End-of-Rope’ Outburst Revealed as He Wishes Slimeball Brother Andrew Would Voluntarily Stop Styling Himself a Prince and Vanish Forever
**King Charles Urges Prince Andrew to “Just Disappear” from Public Life Amid Lingering Scandals**
*Published: Oct. 21, 2025, 7:50 p.m. ET*
King Charles has expressed to aides his deep frustration over his brother Prince Andrew’s continued presence in public life, reportedly wishing the disgraced 65-year-old royal would “just disappear.” Insiders tell RadarOnline.com this marks the monarch’s most exasperated outburst yet regarding the ongoing scandals surrounding Andrew.
The 76-year-old King made the furious remark during private discussions about Andrew’s ongoing use of his royal title and his residence at Royal Lodge in Windsor Great Park. Sources reveal that cancer-stricken Charles, whose health has sharply declined in recent months, feels his brother has “humiliated the family” and wants him to voluntarily stop using the title of prince altogether.
### The King’s Breaking Point
“Charles has had enough,” claimed a senior palace source. “He’s at the end of his rope. His words about Andrew were, ‘Oh, just p— off,’ which tells you everything about where things stand. He sighed and looked absolutely exhausted. He wants Andrew to stop hiding behind his remaining titles and quietly remove himself from public life for good.”
These explosive comments come amid renewed fallout from Andrew’s connections to convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein and the late financier’s accomplice Ghislaine Maxwell.
Despite relinquishing the use of his Duke of York title and membership of the Order of the Garter earlier this month, Andrew continues to use the style ‘Prince’ and remains eighth in line to the throne. This situation has reportedly infuriated both the King and his heir, Prince William, 43.
“The King’s view is that this should have ended long ago,” another insider said. “He believes the only way for the monarchy to move forward is for Andrew to fully renounce his status — not half-measures, not suspended titles, but total withdrawal. It’s not just about optics anymore; it’s about integrity.”
### Mounting Legal Pressure
Pressure on Andrew has intensified following revelations that he may have instructed a police bodyguard to obtain the social security number of Virginia Giuffre, who accused him of sexual abuse. Scotland Yard confirmed it is “actively investigating” whether the Prince abused his official privileges by making the alleged request in 2011.
A senior royal official acknowledged the matter is “deeply serious” and is being handled “at the highest level.”
Andrew has consistently denied Giuffre’s allegations and “vigorously maintains” his innocence. However, in 2022, he agreed to settle her civil lawsuit for a reported $15 million, without admitting liability.
Sources close to the royal household say questions remain over whether the settlement was privately funded or supported through royal estates.
“The lingering mystery around that payout remains a major issue,” claimed one former royal adviser. “The King is determined to see full transparency — the public has every right to know how it was funded. Without clarity, it damages the credibility of the entire monarchy.”
### The Royal Lodge Controversy
Andrew’s residence at Royal Lodge—a 30-room mansion situated on Crown Estate land—has also become a source of frustration for the monarch. Recent reports suggest he has not paid rent for nearly two decades, despite the property being valued at millions of pounds.
“The set-up simply can’t be justified,” a senior source said. “It’s an extravagant estate connected to the Crown, and it completely undermines the King’s efforts to present a more modern, accountable monarchy.”
### A Final Plea from the Throne
While only Parliament can formally strip Andrew of his princely status, insiders say King Charles has privately urged his brother to relinquish it voluntarily to avoid “further humiliation.” One palace figure described this as the monarch’s “final plea” to Andrew.
“The King is keen to avoid turning this into a parliamentary spectacle,” claimed a well-placed courtier. “But his message to Andrew has been unmistakable – step aside willingly or face being pushed. The family can’t continue bearing the weight of his scandals.”

EXCLUSIVE: Prince William ‘To Go to War’ With Prince Harry and Meghan Markle — By Using Prince Andrew as ‘Template’ to Strip Them Of All Their Royal Titles
**Prince William Plans to Strip Prince Harry and Meghan Markle of Their Royal Titles, Following Prince Andrew’s Example**
*Published Oct. 20, 2025, 5:15 p.m. ET*
Prince William is reportedly preparing to take decisive action against his brother Prince Harry and sister-in-law Meghan Markle by removing their remaining royal privileges. RadarOnline.com reveals that William is using the recent stripping of Prince Andrew’s royal titles as a blueprint to cut the Sussexes off from the monarchy entirely.
The 43-year-old heir to the throne is said to have discussed this drastic move with King Charles and senior advisers during the royal family’s summer stay at Balmoral. This followed King Charles’s bombshell decision to formally strip Prince Andrew, 65, of his remaining titles and roles after new allegations connected him again to the Jeffrey Epstein scandal.
—
### Harry and Meghan’s Royal Titles Could Be Next
Sources indicate that the action taken against Andrew set a “useful precedent” for William, who now intends to “finish what was started” by removing Harry and Meghan’s royal privileges once and for all.
“From the outside, Balmoral seemed like the usual royal getaway – strolls, barbecues, and cozy family meals,” revealed a palace insider. “But privately, major talks were underway. William is convinced the monarchy cannot evolve while Harry and Meghan still hold titles. What happened with Andrew showed him it’s time for a definitive break. The King’s decision basically handed him the playbook.”
Although Harry, 41, and Meghan, 44, kept their Duke and Duchess of Sussex titles after stepping back from royal duties in 2020, they agreed not to use their HRH (His and Her Royal Highness) styles. Their children – Prince Archie, 6, and Princess Lilibet, 4 – retained royal titles when Charles became king in 2022.
—
### “It’s About Preservation,” Says Palace Source
William reportedly views the continuation of these titles as incompatible with his vision of a “modern, slimmed-down monarchy.”
“William has made it clear this is about safeguarding the monarchy’s future,” another royal source claimed. “He respects how his father handled Andrew – it was tough but the right call, showing that no one is above the Crown regardless of status. He believes the same principle should apply to Harry and Meghan. This is not about revenge; it’s about preservation.”
Prince Andrew was stripped of his royal titles and military patronages in 2022 amid civil sexual assault allegations, which he denied before settling out of court. The King’s more recent decision to remove Andrew’s remaining honors followed a fresh wave of Epstein-related claims.
Palace aides confirmed the King acted to “avoid further damage to the institution.”
—
### William’s Resolve Strengthened by Andrew’s Case
For William, the decisive action against Andrew has reinforced his determination to apply similar measures to the Sussexes.
A palace insider noted, “What happened with Andrew proved that firm action wins public respect. William wants to demonstrate he’s willing to make tough decisions, even when they hit close to home. He sees this as the final crucial move to safeguard the monarchy’s future.”
—
### Kate Middleton Urges Caution
Despite William’s resolve, insiders say Kate Middleton, 43, has privately advised her husband to proceed with caution.
“Kate loves William and completely believes in his bigger vision,” said a family friend. “But she’s cautioned him that stripping Harry’s titles could be a point of no return. Kate’s nature is to keep the peace wherever possible, and she knows this move could wipe out any chance of reconciliation between the brothers for good.”
The source added, “William views Andrew’s fall as both a cautionary tale and an opportunity to set things right. He believes the monarchy can’t survive double standards anymore. If titles are to hold real value, the same rules must apply to everyone – no exceptions.”
—
This unfolding royal drama signals a potential turning point for the British monarchy as it navigates its future role in a modern world. Prince William appears poised to make firm decisions that could redefine the royal family’s structure for years to come.

Royal Family Death Shock: Lady Annabel Goldsmith Dead at 91 — Nearly 30 Years After Close Pal Princess Diana’s Tragic Passing
Oct. 18, 2025, Published 1:00 p.m. ET
Lady Annabel Goldsmith — the socialite whose name became synonymous with London glamour after inspiring the famed Mayfair nightclub Annabel’s — has died at the age of 91, RadarOnline.com can report.
Her death was confirmed in a joint statement from her six children, including Conservative politician Zac Goldsmith and filmmaker Jemima Goldsmith.
“It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of our mother, Lady Annabel Goldsmith, who died peacefully in her sleep this morning at the age of 91,” the family said.
Lady Annabel
Lady Annabel was the daughter of the eighth Marquess of Londonderry and the younger sister of Lady Margaret. She was first married to hospitality entrepreneur Mark Birley, who founded Annabel’s in 1963 — naming the now-iconic private members’ club after her.
The venue soon became one of London’s most exclusive gathering places, frequented by royals, rock stars, and politicians alike.
Her youngest son, Ben Goldsmith, paid tribute in a statement to the BBC, describing her as “quite simply irreplaceable.” He said,
“We are bereft, not for her – because her life has been extraordinary and complete – but for us, because of the immense hole in our lives she leaves behind. I spoke to her every day for 45 years; she truly had my back and we loved each other very much. I will miss her terribly.”
Her Family
Lady Annabel had three children with Birley — Rupert, Robin, and India Jane — and three more with her second husband, businessman Sir James Goldsmith — Jemima, Zac, and Ben.
In a 2006 interview with The Times, she described herself as “a hands-on mother and a hands-on grandmother,” adding, “I’m not judgmental about women who work, but I was so besotted with my children I never wanted them out of my sight.”
Her first marriage ended after she discovered Birley’s infidelities, later telling Vanity Fair: “Like a butterfly, he had to seduce every woman.” Yet she also admitted, “It’s quite difficult to live with a perfectionist, but the thing is, life with Mark was fun.”
The two remained close until his death in 2007.
Lady Annabel’s Legacy
Lady Annabel’s long affair and eventual marriage to Sir James Goldsmith made her a fixture in 1960s and 1970s gossip columns.
She faced early tragedy, losing her mother to cancer at 17, and later her firstborn son, Rupert, who disappeared off the coast of West Africa in 1986 — an event she described as “the worst thing that has happened to me.”
She later became an author, penning Annabel: An Unconventional Life and a book about her beloved dog, Copper — a fitting reflection of a woman whose life, both glittering and marked by loss, was anything but conventional.

EXCLUSIVE: Inside Prince William’s Nightmarish Introverted Behavior — And the Huge Change That Sparked ‘Disturbing’ Change in Royal’s Conduct
**Prince William’s 2007 Split From Kate Middleton: A Rare Glimpse Into His Private Struggles**
*Published Oct. 16, 2025, 8:16 p.m. ET*
Prince William became “quiet, withdrawn, and not himself” during his brief 2007 split from Kate Middleton, with palace staff telling RadarOnline.com that the future king’s behavior at the time was unusually “closed off” and “disturbing to witness.”
The then 25-year-old royal had ended his long-term relationship with Middleton, now the Princess of Wales, after years of mounting public pressure and scrutiny from the press. The pair met while studying at the University of St. Andrews in Scotland in 2001 and had been together for much of their twenties.
### Withdrawn and Distant Prince
Insiders say the separation—which lasted only a few months—deeply affected William, revealing a rare glimpse of his private struggles. A former royal staffer explained, “That time really weighed on William. He wasn’t himself – much quieter, more withdrawn. You could tell something wasn’t right. He remained courteous and composed, but there was a heaviness about him that everyone noticed.”
The source added, “He never spoke about it directly, but it was clear to all of us it had to do with Kate. The atmosphere around him completely changed.”
Former butler Grant Harrold, who served the royal family for more than a decade and was working at Highgrove House during William and Middleton’s split, recalled the same transformation. In his memoir *The Royal Butler: My Remarkable Life in Royal Service*, Harrold writes: “He went very quiet. He became a little bit withdrawn. I didn’t see a huge amount of him. I just knew he wasn’t himself 100 percent. I knew he wasn’t himself.”
### Pressures of Royal Life and Public Scrutiny
At the time, William faced intense speculation about his relationship and growing pressure from the media to propose. Friends say the separation was as much about protecting Middleton as it was about buying the couple time away from the spotlight.
“The media pressure on Kate was overwhelming,” said a royal aide. “They were still very young, and the level of scrutiny was intense. Stepping away for a while was the right move – it gave them both room to breathe.”
Harrold added that he always believed the pair would reunite. “Kate was always the one [for William],” he said. “Even when they were apart, you could tell she was never far from his thoughts.”
He also described Middleton at the time as “lovely, very bubbly and very talkative,” noting that staff quietly hoped for a reconciliation.
### Kate’s Grace Under Pressure
Those close to Middleton, now 43, say she handled the period with her usual grace despite the public intrusion.
“People think she’s shy, but she’s not,” Harrold said. “She was warm and approachable – very down-to-earth. If you offered her a drink, she’d already be helping herself. She never acted like she was above anyone.”
Insiders suggest the brief split helped strengthen Middleton’s bond with the future king in the long run.
“It really opened their eyes,” said a longtime royal observer. “William came to see just how much he relied on Kate – not only as his partner but as the person who keeps him grounded. She gave him a sense of calm and stability he didn’t have without her.”
### Reunited and Stronger Than Ever
When William and Middleton reconciled after their time apart, those close to them described a visible change in the prince’s demeanor.
“He seemed brighter, more like his old self again,” said a palace source. “It was obvious to everyone how much happier he was with her back in his life – it felt as though a weight had been lifted.”
The couple went on to marry in 2011 at Westminster Abbey in front of 1,900 guests and millions watching worldwide – the start of what friends now describe as one of the royal family’s most solid partnerships.

EXCLUSIVE: Why Meghan Markle ‘Hurled Cup of Tea in the Air’ Amid her ‘Miserable’ Existence in Royal Family
**Meghan Markle’s 2018 Australia Tour: Behind the Smiles, Tensions Sparked a Dramatic Outburst**
*Published Oct. 1, 2025, 7:55 p.m. ET*
Meghan Markle’s celebrated 2018 tour of Australia with Prince Harry was widely hailed as a public triumph. However, RadarOnline.com now reveals that behind the smiling photographs, tensions with aides left the Duchess of Sussex so “miserable” that it sparked a dramatic outburst—ending with her hurling a cup of tea into the air.
—
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex, then newly married and expecting their first child, captivated crowds in Sydney and beyond. Harry, 34 at the time, expressed how “humbled and inspired” he was by competitors at the Invictus Games, while Meghan, then 37, praised the “unshakable bond” and camaraderie among service personnel.
### Public Triumph, Private Strain
Their first major overseas tour seemed flawless to the public and press, who dubbed it “Meghan-mania.” But sources close to the Sussex household describe a very different atmosphere behind the scenes. One insider revealed, “From the outside it looked perfect, but behind the scenes things were tense. Markle was unhappy, Harry was fixated on negative comments online, and the staff were stuck in between.”
Frustrations eventually boiled over. Markle allegedly flung a cup of tea into the air in what one source described as “a small but dramatic act of rebellion.”
### Clashes With Palace Aides
Royal author Tom Bower, in his book *Revenge*, noted that while glowing photographs of the couple dominated headlines, reality inside their team was marked by unhappiness. Meghan had brought close friends Jessica and Ben Mulroney from Canada as her support network, reportedly creating friction with Palace aides assigned to the couple.
Aides described Markle as “abrasive” toward staff and diplomats, recalling the moment she threw a cup of tea during a heated exchange. Another insider explained, “She was dealing with huge pressure and wanted the kind of press handling she was used to in Hollywood. When that wasn’t delivered, her frustration showed.”
### Harry’s Late-Night Obsessions
The strain intensified due to relentless media coverage. According to Bower, Harry scoured social media late at night for criticism, fueling their anxieties. Markle’s anger deepened when stories about her father, Thomas Markle, resurfaced in the American press — including allegations about drug use and claims that he first learned of her pregnancy on the radio.
Though these reports originated in the US, Harry allegedly blamed the British press, which further strained the team’s dynamics.
### A Rift That Never Healed
Behind the scenes, Markle grew increasingly irate with senior aide Jason Knauf, believing he and his team had failed to protect her. One source shared, “She felt vulnerable. Meghan admitted she had believed the Palace would shield her, but when that didn’t happen, her confidence in the staff collapsed.”
The rift with Knauf widened to the extent that Markle reportedly excluded him from knowing about her surprise appearance at the British Fashion Awards later that year, leaving even the press office blindsided. Valentine Low, in his book *Courtiers*, described this move as a deliberate public snub.
The fallout extended beyond palace staff. Markle’s once-close friendship with Jessica Mulroney eventually collapsed after Mulroney became embroiled in a race controversy in 2020.
—
### A Turning Point
Insiders say the tensions of that Australian tour marked a crucial turning point. As one source put it, “That was when the gap between the glossy image and what was really happening behind the scenes became undeniable.”

Desperate To Remain Royal? Meghan Markle Shows Off Lavish Floral Display Arranged with Queen Anne’s Lace in $14Million Mansion… as Prince Harry Fights to Rejoin Family
**Meghan Markle Shares Rare Glimpse Inside $14 Million Montecito Mansion Amid Royal Family Reconciliation Efforts**
*Published: Sept. 29, 2025, 2:00 p.m. ET*
Meghan Markle has offered fans a rare look inside the $14 million Montecito mansion she shares with Prince Harry, as the couple navigates efforts toward reconciliation with the royal family, RadarOnline.com can reveal.
In an Instagram Story, the Duchess of Sussex showcased the stunning interiors of their estate. During the tour, Meghan appeared to send a subtle nod of affection to her in-laws by highlighting a lavish floral display that paid homage to the royals.
### Meghan Markle’s Instagram Nod to the Royals
Markle, 44, shared a photo of their living room, where their beagle, Mia, lounged peacefully on a plush chair beside an extravagant floral arrangement. She captioned the post:
> “Delphinium, Nigella, Veronica – meet As ever. With garden roses and Queen Anne’s lace (and a very sleepy Mia). Looking lovely, ladies.”
While Queen Anne is not directly related to Prince Harry, she reigned over Great Britain from 1702 to 1714. Meghan’s choice to highlight Queen Anne’s Lace, a whimsical flowering plant, seemed to signify her olive branch toward the royal family.
### Meghan Markle Feared Losing Prince Harry After His Meeting with King Charles
This Instagram post comes shortly after Prince Harry’s meeting with his father, King Charles III, who is currently battling cancer and is 76 years old. According to insider reports obtained by RadarOnline.com, Meghan reportedly harbored concerns over the royal family’s intentions and feared she might be losing Harry.
One source shared:
> “Harry’s still buzzing off the back of his meeting with his father, and Meghan is pleased for him, to an extent. But, at the same time, she still worries the Palace could be using divide-and-conquer tactics, and it hasn’t helped that Harry has basically just thrown himself at their feet. He’s clearly very homesick and desperate to build on the positives of the meeting, and it’s taking a lot of his focus away from their life in America.”
### Plans for Spending More Time in the UK
Meanwhile, Markle’s apprehension about reconciling with her in-laws appears to have softened following Harry’s meeting with King Charles. Sources indicate that Harry has expressed a desire to spend more time in the UK with his young family.
Meghan is reportedly open to visiting the United Kingdom, but with a preference to stay in the Cotswolds, a popular celebrity enclave, rather than at a royal residence.
Insiders have also revealed that King Charles might consider offering the Sussexes a royal residence. However, it would likely be located far from Kate Middleton and Prince William, given ongoing tensions between William and Harry.
One insider explained:
> “There are plenty of empty properties on the estate. The royal family is not exactly short of accommodation at the moment. But I don’t think being next door to William and Kate would go down too well.”
### Harry’s Position on Returning to the Institution
Despite the potential visits, sources stress that Harry remains firm in his stance that there is “no move” to fully rejoin the royal institution.
Another source added:
> “Harry would love to come back to the UK more. His plans are driven by the causes that he supports – if they say, ‘We’d really like you to come over,’ he will try to make it work. It’s driven by the requests. He would love to do as much as possible.”
As the Sussexes continue to balance life between California and the UK, fans are keenly watching their next steps and hoping for a peaceful resolution within the royal family.

Christmas Crisis: Disgraced Prince Andrew and Sarah Ferguson Frozen Out of Royal Holiday Plans After Fresh Details About Epstein Relationship Were Leaked
**Prince Andrew and Sarah Ferguson Reportedly Not Welcome at This Year’s Royal Christmas Amid Epstein Controversy**
*Published: September 28, 2025, 2:30 p.m. ET*
Prince Andrew and Sarah Ferguson have reportedly been told they are not welcome at the Royal Family’s Christmas celebrations this year, as fresh controversy over their ties to Jeffrey Epstein resurfaces, RadarOnline.com can reveal.
According to sources, King Charles, 76, has made it clear he wants to keep both the Duke and Duchess of York, 65, at a distance following revelations that Ferguson privately apologized to Epstein after publicly disowning him. A recently exposed letter shows the Duchess describing the convicted paedophile as a “steadfast, generous and supreme friend.”
Andrew and Ferguson, who divorced in 1996 but continue to live together at Royal Lodge in Windsor, have also been instructed to remain “invisible” at future royal gatherings, insiders claim.
### King’s Stance and Family Reaction
A source close to King Charles told outlets:
*”You can’t sack someone from being your brother. But this year, if the Duke and Duchess were both to be as honourable (as last year), it would be very much for the best and the family would not be disappointed, not least to avoid the King having to make any more difficult decisions.”*
Last year, the King reportedly asked Ferguson to help persuade Andrew not to attend the royal Christmas after the Duke was linked to alleged Chinese spy Yang Tengbo. Instead, the Yorks spent the holiday privately at Royal Lodge without their daughters, Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie.
This year’s scandal has further strained family ties. Royal sources suggest Charles and Prince William have agreed that Andrew remains a “risk” and a “threat” to the monarchy. The Prince of Wales is understood to fully support his father’s position.
### Fallout for Ferguson
Several charities have severed their ties with the Duchess of York after the exposé revealed she had written warmly to Epstein only weeks after pledging to sever ties.
In a private message, Ferguson admitted that she distanced herself from Epstein solely to protect her reputation as a children’s author, saying she had been advised to speak out “if she wanted to save her career.” She wrote the note “from the truth of my heart,” despite telling journalists just two months earlier: *“I will never have anything to do with [Epstein] again.”*
Friends insist she is “devastated for any embarrassment” caused and will explain herself to the wider Royal Family “in due course.”
### Tensions at Public Events
The Yorks’ presence at recent royal occasions has also raised eyebrows. At the Duchess of Kent’s funeral earlier this month, Andrew was seen laughing loudly and attempting to engage with Prince William, who appeared to ignore him.
While sources say Charles is “not of the mind to banish someone,” the monarch hopes Andrew and Ferguson will keep a low profile by using discreet entrances at family events.
### Broader Consequences
Andrew stepped back from royal duties in 2019 after his disastrous *Newsnight* interview and continued questions over his friendship with Epstein and alleged involvement with Virginia Giuffre, who accused him of sexual assault when she was 17.
Though Andrew denied the claims, he settled with Giuffre out of court for a reported $16 million.
Newly released U.S. congressional files have again linked Andrew to Epstein through message logs, flight records, and financial ledgers. The same documents also named other prominent figures, including billionaire Elon Musk.
The scandal is now affecting Andrew and Ferguson’s daughters. Friends of Princess Beatrice say she has “lost all hope” of ever becoming a working royal, despite her willingness to help ease the burden on Charles and William.

First Lady Melania Trump and Princess Kate are set to make history with their first joint outing together during President Donald Trump’s state visit to the United Kingdom.
On Wednesday, Prince William and Princess Kate greeted President Trump and the First Lady as they disembarked Marine One upon landing on the grounds of the Windsor estate. The couple was then taken to meet the King and Queen.
Princess Kate was dressed in a bold, burgundy Emilia Wickstead dress paired with a matching hat by Jane Taylor, featuring a feather brooch. Kate’s hat, made from luxury felt with a satin bow and veiling, retails for £2,330 and is made to measure. Meanwhile, Melania Trump wore a Christian Dior Haute Couture dark grey suit complemented by a wide-brimmed purple hat that obscured her eyes.
Later in the day, the two women will visit Frogmore Gardens together as part of President Trump’s second state visit, marking their first solo outing without their respective spouses. During this visit, Melania and Kate will meet UK Scoutmaster Dwayne Fields and members of the Scouts Squirrels program. A former Scout herself, Kate has served as co-president of the Scout Association since 2020.
Ahead of their historic outing, Melania Trump and Camilla, Duchess of Cornwall, joined their respective spouses for the Beating Retreat military ceremony. Camilla chose a royal blue dress and matching hat, accessorized with three strands of pearls, a gold brooch, and a handbag that matched her shoes.
The Trumps stayed overnight on Tuesday at the U.S. Ambassador’s residence in London before traveling to Windsor Castle on Wednesday for a ceremonial welcome and a lavish state banquet.
Melania’s itinerary for the short visit also includes an outing with Camilla. Together, the two will visit Queen Mary’s Dollhouse and the Royal Library at Windsor Castle.
This trip carries extra significance as the late Queen Elizabeth previously hosted the Trumps for a state visit during his first term. President Trump is now the first elected political leader in modern history to be invited to two state visits by British monarchs.
Crowds have turned out to support the U.S. President in the Berkshire town. Dianne, 52, from North London, told The Independent that she believes Trump is a special man. However, thousands are expected to demonstrate against the president’s stay on the streets of London later in the week.
The U.S. President’s visit is under tight security. Four arrests were made near Windsor after images of Trump and the late sex offender Jeffrey Epstein were projected onto Windsor Castle.
Wednesday’s events include a military parade described by the Ministry of Defence as the largest guard of honour ever held at a state visit. The day will also feature gun salutes, a joint U.S.-U.K. flypast, a carriage procession, and a lavish state banquet.
