Ten(ish) Women, One Title: The Princess of Wales (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Fair warning: this is a long, indulgent dispatch all about royal women from history! I needed a historical rabbit hole to distract myself while the recent news cycle was focused on more infighting and drama than I, at my ripe old age of 31, have the patience for. You’ve been warned! There’s been a renewed focus on the Princess of Wales for the latter half of 2026—and by that I mean the role rather than any specific person. Of course, Charles, Earl Spencer, published his memoir, <a href="h
The Editor and the Earl: Piers Morgan says he will sue over new Diana book (opens the original)
Read excerpt
ICYMI (and I doubt you have), Charles, Earl Spencer, has written a book about his sister. After a week of serializations and interviews, publication day was dominated not by a “loving tribute” to Diana, the author’s sister, but by yet another “war of words” between two men fighting over her legacy. <a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!V-GA!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.am
Another Palace “War of Words?” King Charles’ rebuke of Diana’s brother, explained (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The Palace has broken its “never complain, never explain” mantra to hit back at claims from Earl Spencer’s new book, Swan Song: Diana, My Sister. The book is out next Tuesday in both the UK and the US… and this was the best possible free publicity Spencer could have gotten.<a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!xBfp!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F574ce8e4-3242-4519
Princess Alexandra of Hanover’s Engagement Ring... and the Secrets Beneath the Setting (opens the original)
Read excerpt
On Friday, a 27-year-old travel writer who splits her time between Monaco and Los Angeles posted a few photos to Instagram. It featured familiar beats: a hand held up to the camera, a coy placement of the ring on a cluttered nightstand, and a very Gen-Z caption—just three words long. "The marriage plot,” she wrote. <a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!b3bT!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws
How Palace Guidance Sparked a Royal Rift—and Why King Charles Made a Reversal (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Last week, the palace sent a letter to “stakeholders” across government, the military, and national leadership. It wasn’t long, nor angry. The Lord Chamberlain, writing on behalf of King Charles, simply notified senior stakeholders that Prince Harry and Meghan, Duchess of Sussex, remained “private citizens” despite their move back to the UK, and were not operating in any official capacity on behalf of the British Crown.<a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img
