This week on Off With Their Headlines...we’re breaking down Trooping the Colour from all sides: the Republic protests, the optics of royal spectacle vs. Trump-style “birthday parades,” and of course, a closer look at the fashion moments that stole the show.

We also unpack the news that Kate pulled out of Royal Ascot, with the Palace emphasizing her need to “find the right balance” in her return to public life post-treatment. And over in Montecito, Meghan’s standout podcast appearance with Emma Grede has us talking ambition and media narratives once again…just in time for another As Ever drop this Friday.

This week, we’re chatting with FluentlyForward about royal blind items! Shannon (@fluentlyforward) walks us through the history of the blind item, as well as the juiciest royal blinds from history (CW: explicit language).

Amanda also made an appearance on FF a few weeks back to discuss Meghan’s business moves and time in the public eye. Listen here!

And in the spirit of speculation, gossip, and rumor, we also have briefings on all the latest royal stories. What are King Charles’ doctors saying about his cancer? Which “respected” royal editor has crawled her way back into the opinion section? And three guesses (but the first two don’t count) on which former football star might finally get his knighthood.

2:59 - "New" "exclusive" on Lilibet's name...controversy? (DM+)

12:35 - recent framing of "King William" (The Times)

25:03 - Prince William's transition to heir-in-waiting

We’ve been teasing this topic for aaaages and it’s finally time! Amanda and Meredith are strapping in to discuss the rival courts that seem to be taking shape for the reign of KCII. This week, we’re exploring the historic precedent for a lacking “united front” between monarch and heir. 

Plus, what a bestselling Swedish author told Amanda about the royal family this week, and an incisive breakdown of the news that Pres. Joe Biden has been diagnosed with cancer from Meredith.

This week, we're digging into the royal family’s long-standing love affair with homeopathy and alternative healing—a fascination that feels newly relevant as King Charles continues cancer treatment and the Princess of Wales promotes...well, just “nature.” What does it mean when wellness trends collide with royal PR?

We also take a detour to the Cannes Film Festival, where a new dress code banning nudity and “voluminous” styles has us asking: who gets to decide what elegance entails? And finally, say hello to Pope Leo XIV—this is the final chapter in Pope Watch 2025.

This episode, we’re keeping one eye on the red carpet, and the other on the Vatican, as Pope Watch 2025 heats up with the start of the papal conclave. We break down what’s at stake, plus take a stylish detour with our Met Gala fashion review—who nailed the tailoring brief and who phoned it in? 

In royal news, we unpack the latest on Prince Harry’s RAVEC decision and other headline-grabbing moments from the House of Windsor. As always, we’re looking at how media coverage shapes public perception of the royals...and who benefits from the spin.

This week we took a stroll down memory lane and revisited the coronation of the "eldest boy", King Charles III. Amanda provides a timeline of events, Meredith shows how the media is rehashing old stories behind paywalls, and we discuss some of the moments we'd forgotten about (a certain pair of heels worn by Rose Hanbury, the "what qualifies as a tiara" debate, and of course, the memes. We also put the "will she or won't she" around Meghan + the kids attending the coronation with some additional context.
