Are Prince William’s bearded look Harry’s peeking eyes?
She sparked a “beard war” scandal at Spare, claiming William should have been clean-shaven for his wedding to Meghan.
Harry wrote: “When I told him his opinion didn’t really matter because I had already gone to my grandmother and got the green light, he got nervous.”
“He raised his voice… at one point he even ordered me, speaking to the heiress, to shave.”
Comedian David Mitchell revealed ‘Beardgate’ on Radio 4’s The Unbelievable Truth last week, dramatically reading out Harry’s account.

Beware, Bernier and Reina
With Michel Bernier, the former Brexit chin-d’attack of the EU now French Prime Minister, how will Keir Starmer deal with him?

But didn’t HM view the film more liberally?
Helen Mirren played the role of the late King in the 2006 film The Queen. She won an Oscar for this role.
Following her release in 2006, Helena’s work commitments prevented her from accepting the Queen’s invitation to a private dinner.
Mirren has since happily concluded: “I understand that (the photo) has been seen and appreciated.”

Not even real wax figures are available.
Visiting Madame Tussauds to determine how many royal waxworks remained, A Journey Around the Queen author Craig Brown spotted Harry “dangling by his fingers,” a discreet distance from William and Kate. Where was Meghan?
Craig revealed: “Standing alone in the awards party area around the corner, walking distance from Kim Kardashian and the Beckhams.”
