Jennie Bond: Celebs Rumors

Meghan Markle's brother has been slammed for launching a new round of online abuse directed at her via his YouTube channel.

They have rapidly become one of the Royal Family’s greatest assets and so it proved again last week when the Duke and Duchess of Edinburgh stepped up to the plate and carried out a historic ceremony on behalf of King Charles. But as Prince Edward, 60, and Sophie, 59, watched French soldiers parade in the Buckingham Palace forecourt to mark 120 years of friendly relations between the two countries the couple must have reflected that their rise has been many years in the making.Their ascension, former BBC royal correspondent Jennie Bond notes, is also setting the perfect example for two young royals of how to make a success of being the 'spare' to the throne.

Even though the Grand National Festival will take place at Aintree Racecourse on Saturday, 13 April, it is not expected that King Charles will be in attendance as he continues to focus on his recovery following his cancer diagnosis. Many members of the Royal Family - including the King, Zara Tindall, Princess Anne and the late Queen Elizabeth II - have graced the racecourse in recent decades.

For many years, the Duke of Sussex enjoyed a very warm relationship with his sister-in-law, the Princess of Wales - even going so far as to describe her as "the sister I've never had and always wanted" in his memoir, Spare. While the pair have grown apart in recent years since the Sussexes very public split from the Royal Family, a leading royal expert has pointed out how Harry in particular will feel about losing his bond with Kate, while also making it clear where his priorities now lie.

Even though King Charles and Queen Camilla are celebrating their 19th wedding anniversary on Tuesday, 9 April, the couple have been in one another's lives, on and off, for more than five decades. Their partnership is built on a thoroughly level playing field as they give one another all the love and support they need to tackle whatever life throws at them.

Every wedding anniversary is special but for King Charles and Queen Camilla this week’s milestone date will bring with it added poignancy and a time for reflection. It is 19 years since the royal couple made their vows at a civil ceremony at Windsor’s Guildhall watched by a global audience of millions and 35 years since they first met. However, despite the memory of the joy of that momentous day, it is open to question whether the couple will mark the occasion with a large celebration or party.

After his father became King following the death of Queen Elizabeth II in 2022, Prince William is now first in line to the throne as he takes on more senior duties within the Royal Family. And when he becomes King one day, the Prince of Wales will make history thanks to one specific trait of his. Measuring in at 6ft 3in, Prince William, 41, is known for his tall stature – a figure which will make him the second-tallest measured monarch in Britain’s history.

stepped in to support their grandchildren during this uncertain time.And according to royal expert and former BBC royal correspondent Jennie Bond, the Princess’s cancer battle has taken a toll on her worried mother.“We should also spare a thought for another mother in this — Carole Middleton,” Bond told The Mirror.“Catherine may be 42, but she is still Carole’s little girl, and to watch her go through this and withstand the bullying pressure to explain must have been desperately upsetting.”“She has no doubt been a tower of strength and a comforting presence for the children, but she, too, will need reassurance,” Bond added.As Middleton undergoes treatment, her parents have reportedly been spending quality time with their grandkids Prince George, 10, Princess Charlotte, 8, and Prince Louis, 5.They are also grandparents to daughter Pippa Middleton’s children: Arthur, 5, Grace, 3, and Rose, 1.“They’ll have rallied around her, especially her young family,” royal commentator and biographer Duncan Larcombe told the Mirror last month. “Carole and Michael will have essentially thrown a safety blanket around the young children to help protect them.”“In times like this for Kate, it is hugely important.

While The King and The Princess of Wales are both facing worrying health battles, they will perhaps find a small amount of solace by confiding in one another about what they are both going through.The pair share a very close bond and have often expressed their respect and admiration for one another.This relationship will surely act as a pillar of strength during this difficult time – as well as the light-hearted distraction provided by Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis. This special relationship between the King, his daughter-in-law and his Wales grandchildren will be hugely important at this time, former BBC royal correspondent Jennie Bond notes.

The countdown to the release of Netflix's film Scoop is into its final days.The programme - which chronicles what lead up to and subsequently followed Prince Andrew's infamous Newsnight interview - premieres on the streaming giant on Friday, 5 March. The Duke of York's sit-down talk with journalist Emily Maitlis made headlines for all the wrong reasons as he addressed his association with paedophile Jeffrey Epstein.The interview - which was later dubbed a 'car crash' - featured many memorable moments, including mentions of his inability to sweat, a trip to a Pizza Express in Woking and the Duke's tendency to be “too honourable”.

He may come from a world of immense privilege but the Prince of Wales has been dealt a cruel hand in his personal life. With the deaths of his beloved mother and grandmother, the estrangement from his brother, his father’s cancer diagnosis and now his wife battling the same cruel disease, the list of people Prince William can turn to for personal support is limited.

King Charles will join Queen Camilla and other members of the Royal Family at the Easter Sunday Matins Service at St George's Chapel, Windsor on March 31. The appearance will be the King's first major engagement since news of his cancer diagnosis was revealed.This decision, former BBC royal correspondent Jennie Bond tells OK!, is a stroke of genius for more reasons than one.The expert explained: "I think this is a really positive sign that the King is standing up to the cancer treatment well and that his doctors must be satisfied with his progress, and I think it probably lends weight to the suggestions that he is impatient to get things back to normal." Jennie continued: "He’s the Supreme Governor of the Church of England, our Head of State and the head if his family - and he wants to be seen carrying out those roles.

Kate Middleton's mum Carole Middleton will be feeling 'super worried' following the devastating news about her daughter's battle with cancer.This heartbreaking analysis comes from a Royal expert, after Kate bravely shared the news that she has been diagnosed with cancer.The future Queen, who is loved by people all over the world, revealed on the evening of Friday 22 March that she had found out about her illness in some check-ups following her big operation on her stomach earlier this year.

In Tudor times they were seen as status symbols and were dramatically decorative before becoming, in the Victorian era, less formal spaces used for rest and relaxation.

Former Royal correspondent Jennie Bond has condemned the "social media trolls" behind recent "ghastly" rumours about the Royal family and praised Kate Middleton as "courageous," after she publicly announced she had cancer in an unprecedented and deeply moving video message to the nation on Friday evening.The Princess of Wales, 42, said her abdominal surgery in January was a "success," but added that whilst medical tests at the time did not find cancer; unfortunately follow-up assessments have now confirmed its presence, and she will now undergo "preventative chemotherapy" to tackle the condition.The type and severity of the Princess' cancer has not been made public at this stage. Within hours of the Princess' announcement, thousands of people from across the UK, the Commonwealth and beyond took to social media to send their best wishes to the Princess, her husband Prince William, and the couple's three young children, whilst several journalists and royal correspondents have spoken of how "brave" and unusual it is for a Princess to share such a detailed insight into her health, especially amid bizarre and "absurd" rumours that have been circling online in recent weeks.

After the Princess of Wales vowed that she will “be OK” following her decision to bravely reveal she has been diagnosed with cancer, it became clear that the timing of the announcement was to protect her three young children. After Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis left the classroom behind on Friday, 22 March to begin their Easter holidays, the princess explained that she has started to undergo “preventative chemotherapy”.This worrying update, which comes after weeks of outlandish and damaging social media conspiracy theories spun out of control, was timed to coincide with a time where the children were away from school and could be together as a family.

Kate Middleton's brother has reacted to her cancer diagnosis by posting a sweet throwback picture of them together. James Middleton posted a snap of a young Princess of Wales climbing a mountain, as he wished her well with an inspiring message. He captioned the image: "Over the years, we have climbed many mountains together.

After a tumultuous few months for Kate Middleton, she will have been no doubt leaning on Prince William, her family and close friends for support. But, while their relationship has been discussed heavily over the last four years, it has been claimed by a royal author that the Duchess of Sussex used recent events to reach out "through back channels" to offer the Princess her support.

Prince William has been relying on an unexpected source of support during Kate Middleton's health struggles, according to a Royal expert.

It has been a tumultuous and worrying few months for Queen Camilla and the Prince of Wales after their spouses have faced many difficult health worries. While the relationship between the Prince William and his stepmother hasn't always been plain sailing following the breakdown of the King's first marriage to Diana, Princess of Wales, it is clear that they are on far better terms nowadays.

In the space of just three months, the Princess of Wales’ life has been turned upside down… but if there is someone she will be more grateful for than ever before, it is her mum, Carole. “I’m sure Kate has been hugely thankful that her parents live nearby," former BBC royal correspondent Jennie Bond tells OK!.
