William vs Charles, Gaming While the Monarchy Burns, and Sporty Spice Princess - The week in Royal news with Mark Francis
Published 1 week, 5 days ago
Description
William/Charles "icy at best and explosive at worst"—Charles finds William harder to deal with than Harry. William's documentary premiere absence was "a statement." William "furious" about Andrew not facing stronger action. Andrew email to Epstein: "Kate has agreed to deal in London. Wish I was still a pet in your family!" William/Kate issue first statement: "deeply concerned" about Epstein revelations, "thoughts focused on victims." Deep Crown's verdict: "William cannot publicly demand his father act. This falls entirely to the King. Charles must speak—the King himself, on camera, to the nation."
Charles issues "profound concern" statement, ready to support Thames Valley Police. Charles heckled twice about Andrew. William asked about Andrew in Saudi Arabia, doesn't respond—then photographed playing Rocket League while newspapers ask "Can Monarchy Survive?" Deep Crown: "Image of William losing at Rocket League whilst kingdom metaphorically burns does rather reinforce the critics' narrative. Unfortunate misstep." Sarah distancing from Andrew: "I need money," considering memoir/interview.
Andrew clinging to Queen's corgis as "final remaining connection to royal life." Charles's US spring visit in jeopardy. Kate crowned "Sporty Spice Princess"—wild swimming "craziest" hobby. Spotted as "regular mum" at Louis's football. William/Kate US trip causing Meghan "jealousy and rage." Jessica Mulroney $1M memoir possibility. Former PR exec calls both "delusional."
