The brotherly feud between Prince William and Prince Harry reaches new heights as the Cambridges make sure to get papped on a commercial flight to Balmoral, amidst the Sussexes’ private jet ‘controversy’. But the royal travel scandal takes off again when we learn the budget airline flies two empty planes to pick up William, Kate Middleton and the kids. Prince George finds himself the subject of debate as a US TV host mocks his ballet lessons, while the Queen gets into a tailspin over the US Presidential helicopter’s scorch marks on her palace lawn. Elsewhere, Meghan Markle attempts to distract from the turbulence with a sneak peek of her SmartWorks collection and an assembly of all-female staff, and the Sussexes’ starry pals call out ‘racist bullies’. We discuss the Queen’s “August horribilis” and whether the monarchy can survive Prince Andrew’s oversized baggage, and unpack his mealy-mouthed new statement about his friendship with Jeffrey Epstein.
