Prince Harry Diana Documentary Rumors, Andrew’s Survival Deal, and Princess Anne dethroned!
27/12/2025 | 9 mins.
Reports suggest Prince Harry and Meghan could be considering a Diana-focused documentary for 2027, with industry sources questioning whether such a project is being dangled to sustain their Netflix relationship. Royal Insider Deep Crown reacts sharply to the idea, warning it would deepen family divisions and further damage any hope of reconciliation.We also look at claims that both Harry and Meghan are increasingly troubled by their children’s lack of relationships with their grandfathers, alongside renewed confusion after Harry was introduced as “Harry Wales” at a polo event — an error his team insists was not requested.There are also reports that Prince William wants Harry cut out of future inheritances in order to protect the institution, while Andrew is said to have accepted a tightly controlled financial arrangement with the Palace that limits how he appears in public. Further claims suggest King Charles may still have one final leverage point to force Andrew out of Royal Lodge.We round out the episode with new figures showing King Charles has overtaken Princess Anne as the most active royal by engagement count in 2025, and a lighter note as Zara and Mike Tindall prepare for another high-profile Australian trip tied to the Magic Millions festival.Hear our new show "Crown and Controversy: Prince Andrew" here.Check out "Palace Intrigue Presents: King WIlliam" here.👑 Follow our hit series Crown and Controversy!

Crown and Controversy - Prince Andrew - 2. The Queen's Favorite
27/12/2025 | 14 mins.
Before the disgrace came the adoration. In the shadow of his elder brother Charles, Andrew was “the Golden Prince” — dashing, charming, and adored by the press. As a young naval officer and hero of the Falklands War, he embodied confidence and glamour. But even in these glittering early years, the seeds of entitlement were being sown. To his mother, he could do no wrong. To palace insiders, that would prove dangerous.Hear our new show "Crown and Controversy: Prince Andrew" here.Check out "Palace Intrigue Presents: King WIlliam" here.👑 Follow our hit series Crown and Controversy!

Palace Intrigue Unwrapped - Andrew’s Collapse, William’s Rise, and a Monarchy in Transition
26/12/2025 | 9 mins.
Analysis of four hundred seventy Palace Intrigue episodes breaks down the stories, names and themes that defined royal coverage in 2025. The numbers reveal a monarchy under sustained pressure, dominated by scandal, health crises and unresolved family rifts.Andrew emerged as the most talked-about royal by a wide margin, with his Epstein-linked fallout, loss of titles and forced departure from Royal Lodge defining the institutional crisis of the year. Prince William followed closely, as he quietly stepped into a larger leadership role amid growing expectations of a future royal reset.We examine why Meghan Markle and Prince Harry continue to dominate headlines from California, how the narrative around the Sussexes began to shift, and why Netflix remained a central battleground. We also reflect on King Charles’s first full year as monarch during cancer treatment, Kate’s health journey, and the words that kept appearing again and again: controversy, feud, scandal and security.
