Actor Vinnie Jones has declared that King Charles should have stepped aside after Queen Elizabeth's death and allowed Prince William and Kate Middleton to take the throne.

Speaking to Louis Theroux, Jones described himself as a committed royalist but questioned the changes that allowed Charles and Camilla to marry.

Meanwhile, Prince Harry is reportedly worried that Princess Eugenie is distancing herself from him and Meghan Markle. Anonymous sources claim the Sussexes want to understand why one of their closest royal relationships may be cooling.

The fallout from allegations against Meghan's father continues, with unnamed sources describing Harry and Meghan's anger at criticism of her earlier silence. Meghan's niece has defended her decision to keep her children away from Thomas Markle, who denies the allegations.

Royal commentator Tom Sykes has also questioned Meghan's account of her mental health struggles during her time as a working royal.

Elsewhere, the volunteer involved in Meghan's much-discussed Nottingham food bank exchange has been identified as a former solicitor and brewery owner, while reports examine the price of Meghan's designer wardrobe.

And an unfortunate scheduling coincidence means the closing ceremony of Harry's 2027 Invictus Games will fall on Queen Camilla's eightieth birthday.

King Charles has acknowledged the suffering caused by the transatlantic slave trade during his visit to the Bahamas, telling young people that some of the country's most joyful traditions emerged from a painful history.

But protesters are demanding reparations, and the King faces growing pressure to apologize for 
Britain's involvement in slavery ahead of next week's Commonwealth summit.
Meanwhile, Prince Harry is pushing back against accusations that he deliberately overshadows major royal events. Sources close to the Sussexes say Harry and Meghan have cleared their public schedules during Charles's Caribbean tour to avoid competing for attention.

In an unexpected coincidence, King Charles's Highgrove shop and Meghan Markle's As Ever brand launched new crockery collections on the same day, adding another chapter to comparisons between the royal households.

And in The Independent, Tessa Dunlop argues that Prince William now holds the power in the Royal Family, leaving Harry increasingly dependent on his brother's willingness to consider reconciliation.

Crown and Controversy: Kate Middleton

New questions are emerging about how Scotland Yard handled allegations against Meghan Markle's estranged father, Thomas Markle.

The Times reports that Metropolitan Police officers asked Meghan to provide a copy of a 2019 warning letter after they were unable to locate the original. The letter, written by Markle's late first wife, Roslyn Loveless, contained serious allegations that were not passed to overseas authorities.
Daily Mail columnist A.N. Wilson raises questions about whether police or palace officials failed to act, while The Independent examines Loveless's troubled marriage to Thomas Markle and her earlier public warnings about him. Markle denies the allegations, and no cover-up has been established.

Meanwhile, anonymous sources suggest Buckingham Palace could distance itself further from Harry and Meghan as the investigation continues.

Royal journalist Andrea Caamano says Meghan is receiving support from friends while on a previously planned family holiday, with staff managing her social media accounts. The Duchess is also reportedly continuing work on her As Ever business and potential television projects.

And Piers Morgan clashes with Hollywood Unlocked founder Jason Lee over whether Meghan should face questions about her response to the allegations. Their heated exchange turns into a wider argument about race, responsibility and the British media's treatment of the Duchess of Sussex.
