Pod Save The King

New era, new name: Welcome to Pod Save The King, the award-winning Royal podcast from the Daily Mirror.

The Royal family is finding its way in a new era. Following the death of Queen Elizabeth II, King Charles III began his reign alongside Camilla, The Queen Consort. William and Kate became Prince and Princess of Wales. As the family changes, rifts remain with Harry and Meghan across the Atlantic and Prince Andrew is still in the aftermath of the Newsnight interview. There is joy too, as Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis grow up both in and out of the public eye, and the Tindalls, Beatrice and Eugenie find their own ways.

Expect behind the scenes details, fashion, travel, causes, politics and society, plus interviews with people who can provide a particular insight into your favourite Royals, their work and their place in Britain today.

“Lively discussions with a wide-ranging appeal. Refreshingly informal, totally unstuffy and a thoroughly modern take on all things royal. And it’s funny too.” – the Press Awards Judges, who named Pod Save The King Lifestyle Podcast of the Year.

Your regular companions are Royal Editor Russell Myers and Deputy Royal Editor Jennifer Newton. You can join the conversation about the podcast on Instagram and Twitter for a chance to hear your comments on the show, and follow @MirrorRoyal or subscribe to our Royal Newsletter for all the latest.

Secrets of Princess Diana's fashion story Feb 08, 2019

Show notes

Princess Diana is a style icon - an unlikely destiny for a woman reputed to own only four outfits when she became engaged to Prince Charles.
The story of how she transformed from a teenager who loved to borrow clothes from family and friends into a fashion inspiration is told in the Diana: Her Fashion Story exhibition at Kensington Palace.
Pod Save The Queen host Ann Gripper and Daily Mirror style director Amber Graafland were lucky enough to be given a private guided tour by assistant curator Isabella Coraça.
Join them as they walk through the exhibition for a fascinating insight into Diana’s style and how effectively she used her fashion choices to orchestrate her public image.
The exhibition also explores the close relationship Diana developed with her favourite designers though original fashion sketches. Highlights include the Victor Edelstein gown Diana famously wore at the White House when she danced with John Travolta and a Versace dress worn in 1991 for a portrait taken by Patrick Demarchelier that was later featured on the cover of Harper’s Bazaar following her untimely death in 1997.
The exhibition runs until February 17. For information regarding your data privacy, visit acast.com/privacy

Prince Philip crashes into PR disaster Jan 21, 2019

Show notes

Prince Philip walked away after his Landrover was involved in a crash near the Sandringham estate - and straight into a PR disaster.
The proudly independent Duke of Edinburgh has always loved driving. He has a reputation as a daredevil, even apparently threatening to throw the Queen out of the car when she didn't like the speed he was going.
Initial relief that he walked away unscathed merged with concern for the 97-year-old continuing to drive. But his reappearance two days later driving without a seat belt caused anger, as has the treatment of the others involved in the collision.
Pod Save the Queen host Ann Gripper is joined by Daily Mirror royal editor Russell Myers to discuss whether it is the end of the road for the Duke of Edinburgh behind the wheel.

Behind Meghan and Harry's move to Windsor Dec 21, 2018

Show notes

The royal family is assembling at Sandringham for Christmas, with the Sussexes and the Cambridge family among the guests.
The family time comes during a period of increased attention on the relationship between William and Harry, Kate and Meghan after the announcement the newly-weds would be moving to Windsor, rather than staying at Kensington Palace. That news unleashed a swathe of claims of tensions between the couples and how palace staff find Meghan behind closed doors.
And Thomas Markle's reappearance with a new interview hardly helps the festive spirit of peace and goodwill to all men.
Daily Mirror royal correspondent Russell Myers joins Pod Save The Queen host Ann Gripper to discuss the tensions - and what the royals can look forward to at Christmas and beyond.
Pod Save the Queen will return in January. For information regarding your data privacy, visit acast.com/privacy
