## Resource

This week on Royally Unfiltered, Kinsey Schofield is joined by Rupert Bell and Hugo Vickers to break down the biggest royal headlines. The panel dives into Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s latest trip to Australia, where a noticeably muted welcome contrasts sharply with the fanfare of their 2018 tour. From carefully curated appearances at Melbourne’s Royal Children’s Hospital to a domestic violence shelter visit and an upcoming wellness retreat in Sydney, the discussion questions the strategy, reception, and long-term impact of their public engagements.Meanwhile, Hugo Vickers shares poignant revelations from his latest work on the Queen, including the claim that Prince Philip quietly battled pancreatic cancer for years before his death, shedding light on his resilience and final days.Plus, the episode explores Vickers’ gripping account of the Wallis Simpson in Behind Closed Doors, challenging the long-held narrative of her later life and exposing a far more complex and troubling final chapter. With insider perspective from Rupert Bell and expert historical context from Hugo Vickers, this episode delivers sharp analysis, exclusive insights, and thought-provoking discussion on the evolving royal story.
