Royal Family

Kate Middleton is trotting out more photos of her incredible experience climbing three mountain peaks to fight cancer -- and this time she's featuring her royal family.

On Sunday, the Princess of Wales posted a series of Instagram pics showing her with Prince William and their kids, Princess Charlotte and Prince George, after she had finished the National Three Peaks Challenge. Last month, Kate scaled three of the highest mountain peaks in England, Scotland, and Wales -- to raise money for The Royal Marsden Cancer Charity.

In Sunday's IG post, Kate thanked everyone who supported the charity while noting that she had completed the National Three Peaks Challenge. 

Prince William made a surprise appearance on Travis and Jason Kelce's podcast this week ... and he dropped a bombshell about his father, King Charles.

William joined the brothers on "New Heights" ... and among the many topics -- no, nothing about the wedding! -- they talked soccer, since the World Cup is happening ... and that's when PW made a shocking admission -- the King "hates" soccer!

William, of course, is a huge fan -- and he said it was hard not to be since in his youth, that's pretty much all kids talked about ... but yeah -- the King ain't having it.

J.K. Rowling worked her magic and scored a meeting with Queen Camilla ... though it seems the two only discussed reading ... and not the author's controversial views on the transgender community.

The 'Harry Potter' author met with the United Kingdom's Queen Consort Tuesday ... with the Royal Family's official X account sharing a picture of the two standing side by side.

Camilla wore an all-blue dress while J.K. opted for a white blazer layered over a dark blue shirt and pants combo.

Kate Middleton is climbing mountains in her fight against cancer -- literally!

The Princess of Wales scaled three of the highest mountains in the United Kingdom in just 24 hours during the National Three Peaks Challenge over the weekend to highlight her continued battle against cancer.

As you know, Kate was diagnosed with the disease in March 2024, but announced she was in remission the following year.

Jeffrey Epstein had friends in high places -- and one of them reportedly came to visit him multiple times while he was serving a jail sentence in 2009 for child solicitation in Florida.

Sarah Ferguson -- the former Duchess of York -- visited Epstein twice at a Palm Beach office, where the convicted sex offender was serving his 13-month sentence after copping a plea to a charge of soliciting a person under the age of 18 for prostitution, according to The Telegraph.

As part of his plea deal, Epstein was permitted to spend much of his time on work release at the Palm Beach office.

The Telegraph uncovered 2009 emails sent by Ferguson to Epstein, with one referring to Epstein as Ferguson's "dear spectacular and special friend Jeffrey."

Former prince Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor has clearly seen better days ... he just emerged for a rare public sighting with a massive shiner splashed across his face.

Unclear how Andrew ended up with a huge bruise here ... but it looks painful as hell.

Cops across the pond are reportedly looking into an alleged incident from 2002 at the famous racing festival ... with police "examining events in 2002 as they consider wider possible crimes by Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, including sexual misconduct, ­corruption and fraud" ... according to The Sunday Times.

Royal Ascot is the most prestigious horse racing event in England with a rich history of tradition dating back centuries ... and in 2002, it was reportedly attended by Andrew's mom, Queen Elizabeth, his older brother the future King Charles, his younger brother Prince Edward, and his older daughter Princess Beatrice.

Former Prince Andrew's legal problems aren't taking a vacation ... police in England are investigating reports that a woman ended up at his former Windsor address for sexual purposes in 2010.

Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor was arrested in February by the Thames Valley PD amid an ongoing probe into his possible misconduct in public office as a result of his connection to pedophile financier Jeffrey Epstein, who died by suicide in 2019. 

On Friday, the Thames PD issued a press release, saying on top of the misconduct investigation, detectives are now looking into reports about a sexual incident involving a woman in 2010.

King Charles III is still kicking ... as in he's alive and well, despite what a UK radio station had to say earlier this week.

Radio Caroline mistakenly announced the British king's passing on Tuesday, when they said a computer error triggered their "Death of a Monarch procedure."

Station Manager Peter Moore said in a social media statement that the announcement -- and the following moment of silence -- was activated by accident.

King Charles just got crapped on in Northern Ireland ... a seagull welcomed him to a seaside town with a fresh load of poop falling from the sky.

The monarch was visiting Newcastle on Wednesday when a gull soaring overhead took a deuce that fell to Earth and laded on the King's jacket.

Video shows King Charles walking around town greeting residents with a huge blob of white and brown bird poop on his clothing.

Sir Rod Stewart didn't hold back on the red carpet while greeting King Charles and Queen Camilla after their recent U.S. trip to see President Donald Trump!

At Monday’s 50th anniversary celebration for The King's Trust at London's Royal Albert Hall, Rod congratulated the King on the royal couple's recent 4-day U.S. trip ... before twisting the knife, adding, "May I say, well done in the Americas. You were superb, absolutely superb ... put that little ratbag in his place!"

Charles appeared to laugh it off while discussing the trip ... even referencing a speech where he poked fun at America's colonial history with a cheeky French joke.

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle had a family day at The Happiest Place on Earth ... taking their 2 kids to Disneyland with the Duchess' mom Doria Ragland in tow!

Check out the sweet family photos the actress-turned-royal posted on IG Monday -- Harry and Meghan hold hands with 7-year-old Prince Archie and 4-year-old Princess Lilibet as they explore the park in ... another pic shows Lilibet hugging Cinderella.

And Meghan was clearly happy to have her mom join along, sharing a snap of her embracing her mom, giving her a smooch on the head.

Martha Stewart sounds like she's got a pretty informal relationship with King Charles III ... she says he's just "Chuck" to her.

We got Martha on her way out of The Whitby Hotel in New York City on Wednesday and our photog asked her if she was heading out to see King Charles and Queen Camilla.

Martha seemed confused about this Charles character ... saying she calls the King, "Chuck."

King Charles is cracking jokes now??? Yup, the British monarch had the White House in stitches, dragging America’s colonial past with a royal wink!

During Tuesday night’s event, Charles clocked Donald Trump’s comment that without the U.S., Europe would be speaking German ... before quipping, "Dare I say, if it wasn’t for us, you’d be speaking French!"

Cue absolute chaos -- the room erupted in full-on belly laughs and applause, with Charles pausing to soak in the reaction before continuing on.

Justin Baldoni's lawyers say he and the other defendants in Blake Lively's lawsuit can't be held responsible for her businesses going belly up ... because she's not a marvelous mogul.

The two sides were in court Tuesday to discuss pretrial issues ... and, damages came up --specifically, Lively arguing Baldoni and others damaged her public reputation, which caused her brands to take a beating.

Baldoni's lawyers disagreed, firing back that Blake has a poor track record of running businesses ... and companies like her liquor brand Betty Buzz failed because people just don't like her.
