The Duke was seen looking at an elephant’s tusk during the Reading visit this morning while conversing with staff members.

The appearance of his son comes just hours before Ellen’s interview with Duchess Sussex is broadcast in the US.  

It was a surprise to see her on TV yesterday. After Harry and her emigration in January 2020, it was widely believed that the Duchess of Cambridge would interview Ellen for the first time. In the end, the Sussexes chose OprahWinfrey over their Montecito neighbor.

Buckingham Palace will be concerned that Meghan may launch another attack against the royals. She has been accused of racist remarks towards Archie, and accusations she ignored Meghan’s claims to have committed suicide while she was pregnant.

Boris Johnson (Prince Charles and Prince William) observed the silence for two minutes as 11am approached.

Buckingham Palace stated that the monarch, 95 years old, made Sunday’s decision ‘with great regret’. She was ‘disappointed to be absent’ – it is the first time in 22 years she hasn’t been there.

It is reported that the Queen is deeply disappointed by the cancellation of the service, which she views as one of the most important of the year. However, she plans to resume as scheduled with light official duties next Monday.

As a World War II veteran, the monarch was expected to view the memorial service in central London’s War Memorial from the balcony in the Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office building.

He wore a black suit and a poppy to complete his stylish look.

The Royal Speech was delivered during the World Leaders’ Summit on ‘Accelerating Clean Technology Innovation and Deployment’ in Glasgow.

 Taking to the stage, Prince William challenged world leaders to push even harder in a bid to stop devastating floods, fires and heatwaves and said: ‘If we are to achieve our goal to repair our planet in what is now less than a decade, it is our shared responsibility to continue thinking differently, acting boldly, and making the impossible, possible.’
