As she left her five-bedroom home, she wore bright lipstick and sunglasses. She will be back there until the beginning of next week.

The Royal Family is frustrated again after Prince Harry made a series of slurs at the Firm during interviews on US television
Prince Charles, who is believed to be in the final stretch of his rope with his youngest son. Palace staff members who looked after Her Majesty during the pandemic accuse the Duke of Sussex (breathtaking arrogance) of suggesting his grandmother requires extra protection.
He claimed that she confides in him things she can’t talk to anyone else about. And in a barbed comment he said of his visit to Windsor Castle last week: ‘I’m just making sure that she’s protected and got the right people around her’.
He also risked further fuelling the rift with his estranged older brother by stating that their late mother, Diana, Princess of Wales, was now watching over him from beyond the grave as ‘she’s done her bit’ with Prince William and his family.
