Harry and Meghan – A rebellious marriage

The news that Prince Harry's memoirs could land him and his wife at least $20 million has gone down like a lead balloon over here in the UK. Apparently Palace officials have indicated that the Royal family have almost resigned themselves to the fact that more allegations and scandal lies in wait for them when the book is finally published next year.

Queen Elizabeth taking it easy as she recovers from stomach bug

Queen Elizabeth is a little bit ill at the moment as she slowly recovers from a stomach bug that affected her so much that she had to be admitted to hospital for just over 24 hours. This week for the first time in ages, she cancelled all her engagements as she recovers, prompting some concern in the British press. The Queen is now 86 years of age and still carries out a gruelling schedule of engagements each year, last year celebrating her diamond jubilee was very busy for her, so maybe it is no surprise that she is taking her time to get better, especially as the weather is very cold right now.
