Catherine made her first overseas solo working trip since cancer treatment, arriving in Italy for a two-day visit focused on early childhood development — a return Deep Crown called \"load-bearing\" for the institution. On the same day she left, Meghan relaunched her As Ever brand, updated her Instagram, released Disneyland family photos, and wore what appeared to be her wedding reception gown in a promotional video. Tom Sykes identified a marketing funnel. Deep Crown raised an eyebrow. Andrew Lownie's updated biography linked Sarah Ferguson to Sean Combs; Ferguson denied everything. Andrew was charged at by a balaclava-wearing man near Sandringham, will likely remain in the line of succession another year, and learned of Eugenie's pregnancy via Sarah rather than his daughter. Kris Jenner thanked Meghan for candles. Rod Stewart told the King he'd put \"that little ratbag\" in his place. A hearing dog dug up the palace lawn to universal approval. And Meghan is reportedly furious about an SNL joke. Harry, meanwhile, is said to be mostly at home with the children. Welcome to the monarchy in 2026.
