William left red faced after a surprise from Diana

Prince William recalled how he was left red-faced as a teenager when Diana gathered his favourite supermodels to say hello to him.

The duke was wracked with embarrassment, because he had pictures ofNaomi Campbell, Cindy Crawford and Christy Turlington on his wall.

Speaking on the ITV documentary Diana, Our Mother in 2017 he said: “She organised, when I came home from school to have Cindy Crawford, Christy Turlington and Naomi Campbell waiting at the top of the stairs.

“I was probably a 12 or 13-year-old boy who had posters of them on his wall.

“And I went bright red and didn’t quite know what to say and sort of fumbled. I think I pretty much fell down the stairs on the way up. I was utterly sort of awestruck.

“But that was a very funny memory that’s lived with me forever about her loving and embarrassing and being, sort of, the joker.”

Harry's cousin stars inmilk advert

Peter Phillips, often referred to as "the Queen's favourite grandchild", has starred in a milk advert for Chinese television stations. He appears on the 30-second television advert with the caption "British Royal Family member Peter Phillips".

The unedifying scenes show Harry's first cousin, Peter — now 15th in line to the throne — in dinner jacket and bow tie staring out of the window of a palatial house as a state carriage draws up.

It suggests he is watching the arrival of the monarch at a royal palace. The ad is spliced with images of a country pile, thought to be Longleat House in Wiltshire, and a replica of a royal carriage.

Dad-of-two Peter, 42, tells viewers: "As children, we used to spend a lot of time down at the dairy.

"There was a herd of Jersey cattle at Windsor and we were brought up on it [the milk]. And it was always much fuller of flavour, much creamier than other milks we had growing up."

It is not known if he was paid for his appearance, but he could command a fee in the tens of thousands. The ad has raised questions about royals for rent and how members of the wider family should earn a crust without tarnishing the Windsor brand.

Peter's toe-curling promo is a stark warning to Harry and Meghan of the perils of swapping a royal life for the commercial world.

And, after all, now that Meghan and Harry are independent of the Royal Family there is nothing to stop them indulging in similar commercial deals.

Will King Charles find a way to remove Harry and Meghan for good?

For now, as Prince Charles and first in line to the throne, he poses little threat to to the Sussexes but perhaps that will change once he’s monarch.

It wasn’t clear who Harry and Meghan were alluding to in their interview when they spoke of racism, but were adamant it wasn’t the Queen.

Suggestions began to flood social media with Charles seeming a likely culprit.

With the likelihood of Charles having a long reign being slim, it may be that he would rather it was as smooth as possible.

If so, he may be happier with his youngest son remaining in the US.

How Harry tried to keep his legal fight a secret

The Mail on Sunday revealed that Prince Harrytried to keep the details of his legal battle a secret from the public, in which he tried to reinstate his police protection.

High Court documents show he fought for a far-reaching confidentiality order on the documents and witness statements surrounding his case against the Government.

However, the Home Office argued for transparency, saying “there must be a sufficiently good reason, in the wider public interest, to justify the departure from open justice that such an order involves”.

Both sides agreed that some papers would be made public, with the Home Office agreeing to carry out a ‘confidentiality exercise’ to determine what would be kept secret.

The revelations of this are a crushing blow to Harry as he has always implied he had always been willing to foot the bill.

Following this,royal author David McClure, tweeted: “Once more confusion about the accuracy of messages coming out of the Sussex camp. First Harry offers to pay, then when he visits the UK, he does not.”

Despite the royal family historically remaining seemingly neutral politically, Meghan does not shy away from important matters

Before her relationship with Prince Harry, Meghan Markle appeared to favour the US Democratic party to the Republican party.

In favour of paid family leave and in opposition of the Gulf War, Meghan appears to have compassion for the many rather than the few.

Harry and Meghan have been vocal about their mistreatment at the hands of the royal family institution and what that has meant for their family.

In their bid to create a new start for their family, Harry and Meghan appear to be doing more to help the masses suggesting their political alliances many not lay with those currently in charge.

China is accusing the United States of creating fear and panic over the crisis in Ukraine.

Foreign Ministry spokesperson Hua Chunying said Wednesday that China opposes new sanctions on Russia, reiterating a longstanding Chinese position.

She said the U.S. was fueling tensions by providing weapons to Kyiv in response to Russias large troop deployment around Ukraines borders and fears of an invasion.

China-Russia ties have grown closer under Chinese leader Xi Jinping, who hosted Russian President Vladimir Putin at talks in Beijing earlier this month.

The two sides issued a joint statement backing Moscows opposition to a NATO expansion in former Soviet republics and buttressing Chinas claim to the self-governing island of Taiwan key foreign policy issues for Beijing and Moscow.

Hua said Beijing wants multilateral talks to ease the mounting international tension over Ukraine. She did not mention efforts by the U.S., France and others to engage Russia diplomatically.
