This week on Heirs and Spares, Kinsey Schofield in Los Angeles and Rupert Bell in London take you through the biggest royal headlines of the week with context, commentary, and a dash of cheek.    

Princess Catherine sets the tone for the season with her signature Christmas carol concert as Prince William prepares to pass on Princess Diana’s legacy of compassion by bringing Prince George into his homelessness advocacy.    

Across the Atlantic, Meghan Markle insists she emailed her ailing father after his surgery, a claim Thomas Markle strongly disputes. Plus, Prince Harry’s security status is back under review for the first time in nearly six years and the outcome could reshape how he travels to the UK.   

We also break down Harry’s surprise appearance at a Los Angeles Christmas lunch where he cracked jokes about royal life and avoided mentioning his father-in-law’s health.
