Palace Intrigue also tracks King Charles III’s reign and health, Prince William and Princess Kate’s emergence as the face of the future Crown, the ongoing legal battles Harry has waged against the British press, and the daily drama of a family that remains the most covered institution in the English-speaking world.

Andrew Still Doesn’t Get It: Beatrice’s Newsnight Role Resurfaces as New Royal Dramas Build Mar 10, 2026

Show notes

Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor reportedly believes it is “deeply unfair” that public opinion has turned against him, with historian Andrew Lownie saying the disgraced royal still sees himself as “anointed” and struggles to understand the backlash.
We also revisit the disastrous 2019 Newsnight interview, with producer Sam McAlister revealing that Princess Beatrice played a crucial behind-the-scenes role in getting it over the line. McAlister calls her the “rainmaker,” saying the interview would never have happened if the BBC had not satisfied Beatrice’s questions and concerns.
Plus: Prince Harry sends an emotional good-luck video to Team GB Paralympian Scott Meenagh ahead of Milano Cortina, fresh reports suggest William and Kate could deliver a new Diana-Travolta style diplomatic moment in America, and King Charles faces yet another headache as an $8 million court fight engulfs a charity-linked sustainability project.

NETFLIXGATE: Meghan “Takes Control” of As Ever as Critics Say She Was Dumped Mar 10, 2026

Show notes

Meghan Markle has reportedly ended Netflix’s involvement in her lifestyle brand As Ever, with both sides insisting the split is amicable. The Duchess is said to want full control as the company expands, but critics are not buying the idea that this was her decision. One industry source bluntly told Page Six, “Her show did not go on so it did not make sense to continue the partnership.”
We break down the dueling narratives, the rising web traffic figures, the harsh reaction from social media, and why even The Hollywood Reporter was mocking the split. Plus, reputation expert Eric Schiffer calls the move “celebrity brand suicide in a cashmere apron,” and argues Meghan now carries “the scent of high-maintenance disappointment.”
Also in this episode: a look back at the Sussexes’ string of stalled or underperforming ventures, from The Bench to Spotify to Meet Me at the Lake, Meghan’s awkwardly timed “mood boosting daily rituals” email, and fresh questions after an As Ever bookmark sold out in under a minute.

Harry and Meghan Netflix Projects Stall as Jordan Trip Draws New Criticism Mar 09, 2026

Show notes

Questions are growing about Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s production deal with Netflix as several projects remain stuck in development. An adaptation of the novel Meet Me at the Lake — reportedly acquired for about $3 million — still has no director or cast attached nearly three years after the announcement, while another project based on The Wedding Date is also stalled.
At the same time, the couple’s humanitarian trip to Jordan is drawing fresh scrutiny. A public relations expert says the visit was “casually competent, but not strategic,” arguing it followed the familiar formula of carefully staged humanitarian appearances without producing a defining moment that could shift public perception.
The trip also sparked political controversy after Harry’s remarks about humanitarian aid to Gaza prompted a public rebuke from Israel’s deputy foreign minister, who invited him to visit Israel and “see for yourself.”
Meanwhile, commentator Maureen Callahan accused Meghan of exploiting images from a hospital visit to a Gaza burn victim, calling the moment “nothing short of exploitation,” while reports claim Prince William is privately frustrated by what one source described as a “Diana 2.0 act.”
Plus: Andrew reportedly pushed for Princess Eugenie’s wedding to match Prince Harry’s in scale, officials confirm he cannot legally lose the Freedom of the City of London honour, and royal watchers speculate that Sarah Ferguson may hold insight into private tensions between the Sussexes and the wider family.

BBC Snubs Commonwealth Day: Royal Ceremony Dropped for “Escape to the Country” Mar 09, 2026

Show notes

King Charles and Queen Camilla will lead senior members of the Royal Family at Westminster Abbey today for the annual Commonwealth Day service, joined by the Prince and Princess of Wales, Princess Anne and other working royals before an audience of about 1,800 guests representing the 56 nations of the Commonwealth.
But the BBC has decided not to broadcast the ceremony live this year, opting instead to air Escape to the Country in the time slot. The broadcaster says the move reflects financial pressures, while critics such as royal author Ingrid Seward call the decision “ridiculous and appalling.” Royal Insider Deep Crown warns the real danger is that the Commonwealth risks drifting toward irrelevance if even its biggest ceremonial moment struggles to command attention.
Meanwhile, diplomatic sources say officials in Washington hope a future royal visit could help repair strained relations between the United States and the United Kingdom, with interest in potential trips by both the King and the Prince and Princess of Wales.
Plus: behind the scenes, King Charles is said to have a quiet strategy for managing the Andrew crisis while ensuring royal duties continue uninterrupted — and Prince William accidentally creates a viral moment after mishearing a bakery customer’s name as “Juicy.”

Diana cash war: William fumes over Harry’s Netflix plans as brother freeze deepens Mar 07, 2026

Show notes

Prince William is reportedly weighing legal and institutional moves to derail a proposed Netflix documentary marking 30 years since Princess Diana’s death, with insiders saying he finds the idea “deeply distressing.” Harry is said to believe he has every right to tell his mother’s story — palace permission not required — while Meghan’s reported involvement and Netflix’s backing have only inflamed tensions. Paul Burrell claims William has deliberately widened the gap as he prepares for the throne, and Deep Crown argues Harry traded a powerful royal role for California branding. As Diana’s memory resurfaces, so does the brothers’ war over who controls her legacy.

Kate Dances, William Makes Pasties, Media Distracted! Mar 06, 2026

Show notes

The Princess of Wales joined Bollywood dancers and sampled Indian sweets during a lively visit to Leicester’s Golden Mile, where she was welcomed with flowers and cheers from crowds celebrating the culture of the British Indian community. Catherine even joined a short dance routine before joking about the sweets being “zero calories.”
Meanwhile in Cornwall, Prince William marked St Piran’s Day in his role as Duke of Cornwall, trying his hand at making a traditional Cornish pasty and thanking emergency crews who responded to devastating winter storms.
