In our final episode of 2025, we revisit some of the wildest stories of 2025. Kate's hair trick that left fans stunned? Princess Anne's emotional-support lipstick for William? Meghan's audacious demand to share a b-day with not one, but TWO important royal events? All of that plus, Mr. Of Fact drops by to give us a "normie" view of the big stories of the year (spoiler: they are extremely niche and we love him for it).

So many royal-adjacent stories, so little real accountability. We’re checking in with one journalist whose apology to Meghan's mum could so easily have been avoided, another who clearly needs a journal for Christmas, an Earl who owes his girlfriend damages after she sued his ex-wife, and some updates from brothers King Charles and Prince Andrew.

It's days like today that the Friday News Dump was created. We cover King Charles III's pre-taped video announcement that aired Friday night on Channel 4 during a "Stand Up to Cancer" fundraiser and give our first impressions.

Other topics discussed:

-Princess Sophie's Epstein Link (and why she shouldn't be put in the same category as Andrew Mountbatten Windsor Fergie)

-Did Caroline Graham move in with Thomas Markle?

-Samantha Markle's X account makes an excellent case for banning AI.

We’re digging into a packed set of royal stories this week, including several bananas articles that give a masterclass in the royal reframe.

Plus: Prince Harry gets a security appeal after all, Thomas Markle’s bizarre public plea to reconnect with Meghan, and a surprising story about the Duchy of Cornwall stepping into a trademark conflict over cultural ownership of...a term for vegetables?

Amanda asked for a chill episode...so they spoke about a diplomatic state visit and Meredith launched into a diatribe about the coverage of Meghan and her father.

But seriously, we get into a festive-ish mood, covering the "With Love, Meghan" holiday special, the German State Visit to the U.K., new (old) tiaras, Kate's fashion, a world salad of a letter to guests of the 'Karoling Koncert', and more. Enjoy!

The social season is in full swing, so we are showing up to the function with a mix of fashion critique, media analysis, and some eyebrow-raising palace updates.

New investigations into royal leases might reveal about transparency inside the Firm. Plus, a recap of “Le Bal,” the debutante event of the year—and our thoughts on the gowns, the vibes, and the very specific aesthetic choices

Plus, another round of Meghan Sussex dress discourse, proving the tabloids will turn anything into a controversy. And Andrew Lownie’s bizarre recent apology - was it inspired by pressure from royal circles?

It's been a year in both royal world and our personal lives, so we're answering your questions! What would the British monarchy need to do for long-term staying power? How do the (formerly) York sisters play into that? How have we, on a personal level, navigated career pivots, motherhood, and the state of our education system today?

And perhaps most importantly...What. Does the [royal] nanny. DO?

Enjoy - and if we didn't get to your question in this round, fear not! It's safely tucked away in the royal vault for a future mailbag episode.
