It's the week in review on Palace Intrigue, and what a week it was. King Charles addressed Congress, made a submarine joke at a White House state dinner, delivered honey to a Harlem farmer, and left Washington having said nothing quotable, offended no one, and received approximately a dozen standing ovations — mission, by all accounts, accomplished. Queen Camilla delivered a replacement toy kangaroo to the New York Public Library and warned an audience her voice might not last the speech. The gifts included a Second World War bell, Resolute Desk plans, Tiffany teaspoons, and White House honey. Meanwhile, Meghan published a sixteen-designer fashion interview during the state visit, the OneOff platform controversy rumbled on, and a Heat World report claimed Harry privately winces at Meghan's money talk. Harry's forty-thousand air miles in sixty days attracted scrutiny. Tom Sykes suggested his Ukraine speech may have been AI-drafted. William and Catherine marked fifteen years of marriage with a Cornwall portrait. Eugenie resurfaced in Sicily. Sarah Ferguson was spotted in Austria. Andrew remains in Norfolk. And the British summer season is about to begin, right on schedule, as it always does.
