Off With Their Headlines

Amanda is back from boots on the ground royal coverage in Philadelphia, and we’re diving straight into the royal spin machine! We dig into reports that Prince William privately reached out to Prince Andrew with condolences…despite months of briefings suggesting he’s pushed for a harder line. So which is it?

Plus: the media coverage of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s Australia trip…where a  “muted reception” somehow meant large crowds, public safety gets reframed as “taxpayer-funded security,” and a business trip becomes “cashing in.” We had to revisit a few very 2018 royal body language analysis articles for good measure.

After a restful Easter break, we’re back to discuss how the royals showed up (or didn’t) on Sunday, what they wore, what they ate, and how the completely normal British press is dealing with Harry, Meghan, and the Sussex kids *checks notes* …existing! at the same time.

Plus, former palace assistant Natasha Archer has launched her styling consultancy after exiting royal life. But she’s not just another stylist…she does admin support, too.

Prince William has long been considered the least devout of the senior royals, but this week we get to discuss the convenient timing of a new profile spotlighting his "quiet faith." 

Also this week: Sky News' Rhiannon Mills is heading to Buckingham Palace as media secretary, signaling how the institution wants to manage its press relationships going forward.

Plus, a 2023 scheme involving Fergie, the late Queen's corgis, and a reality TV production company has surfaced (it is exactly what it sounds like) and reports that that Princess Beatrice is "privately navigating" distance from her husband Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi. We read the sourcing so you don't have to.

Analysis of Crown Princess Mette-Marit’s recent interview will be out on Patreon later this week!

Can we call it a Friday News Dump if we recorded on Wednesday?

Either way, this is a jam-packed (not a pun) episode full of giggles, dedicated Burn Book pages to Tom Bower, fashion hits and misses from Kate's 3 engagements, and bloopers because Meredith is a balloon man and cannot control her extremities.

1:48-9:24 Variety piece on Prince Harry and Meghan

9:25-20:34 Tom Bower's New Harry & Meghan Book

Stick around till the end for bloopers

Amid Spring Break, book deadlines, and the Persistent Horrors(tm) of 2026, we needed a week off from royal news updates. And so we're presenting you with free access to a Patreon BONUS EPISODE: flipping through an issue of Royalty Magazine from 1999!

Who were the monarchy's problem children this year? Who was getting the brunt of public and media displeasure? Who had the best haircut? Follow along - you can access PDF versions of the articles we reference HERE.
