Media reports Meghan has privately discussed the long-term future of Princess Diana’s jewellery, including the idea of refashioning pieces into a symbolic ring, while stressing it does not signal an imminent split. Harry is also seen visiting Santa Barbara fire stations with Watch Duty, highlighting support for first responders.

Meanwhile, sources say a frightening encounter with a known fixated individual during a High Court appearance has reinforced Harry’s legal fight for full UK police protection, with security experts warning that repeated stalking can be deeply anxiety-inducing. We also touch on Harry’s new PR team for Invictus Birmingham 2027, plus brief royal-watch moments involving Kate’s new hairstyle and Meghan’s latest fashion buzz.

Meghan Markle unveils As Ever’s first Valentine’s Day collection, featuring Strawberry Spread now sold on its own, the return of Raspberry Spread, and gift-style bundles with keepsake packaging. U.S. shipping cutoffs are posted for February 2, but the products still aren’t available to customers in the United Kingdom, and not everything sold out instantly. We also have a viral-ish unboxing clip from podcast host Dana Bowling, who claims an As Ever candle arrived with no wick, despite instructions that say to trim the wick before lighting.

Plus, Heat World claims Harry and Meghan’s disagreements follow familiar triggers: the U.K., Harry’s relationship to royal life, and how much he’s expected to participate in the Hollywood machine. Fox News Digital contributors weigh in on how Spare and the post-royal era continue to shape Harry’s role, with some suggesting he risks becoming a supporting character to Meghan’s brand strategy. And Closer magazine claims Meghan is unwilling to “play nice” with Queen Camilla, even if security arrangements improve.

Radar Online claims Harry is privately furious after Meghan posted a photo from his Afghanistan service alongside Invictus imagery, timed just after Harry rebuked President Trump’s comments about NATO troops. Sources allege Harry feels his military record is being pulled into a political moment and worries it could bring unwanted attention while he’s already under scrutiny. Meanwhile Meghan teases a new As Ever jam drop with a throwback 2018 Roland Mouret dress and a “something sweet” message, while Invictus announces a new London awards programme for September, including an Invictus Resilience Award. Jennie Bond suggests Invictus Birmingham 2027 could be a “white flag” moment for public reconciliation.

 In the second half: Andrew is spotted in Grenadier Guards gear despite losing the honorary role, Beatrice is photographed riding with him in a visible show of support, and reports claim Andrew was “appalled” by the size of Marsh Farm as his Royal Lodge exit approaches. Plus an update on Norway, where the Royal House says it will largely carry on with duties as the Marius Borg Høiby trial begins in early February.

Radar Online claims Queen Camilla is feeling territorial about Kate’s future role, with sources alleging palace figures have warned Camilla that Catherine will one day be queen and future “perks and influence” will shift accordingly. The report also links the tension to Kate’s headline-grabbing tiara moment at a recent state banquet. Separate reporting says King Charles is pushing senior royals to end the Harry and William feud, with one insider quoting him as saying, “Everyone needs to grow up,” and suggesting Charles is looking to Kate as a steady bridge between the two sides.

We also have Kate’s solo away day in Bradford and Wakefield, braving Storm Chandra to spotlight children’s trauma therapy and community rugby, plus Charles and Camilla hosting Holocaust Memorial Day guests at Buckingham Palace. And finally, the national memorial to Queen Elizabeth the Second gets a design clarification: the main statue will depict her standing, not on horseback.
