Podcast: Palace Intrigue : Meghan and Harry's Australia trip, King Charles visits USA - Royal Family gossipPublished On: Mon Jan 05 2026
Description: Meghan Markle has been labelled the most disappointing celebrity of 2025 by the Toronto Star, in a critical opinion piece arguing she had the ingredients for global success but “slowly deflated” over the past year. The article is notable given Meghan’s long connection to Toronto during her years filming Suits and the city’s significance in the early stages of her relationship with Prince Harry.Meanwhile, Star magazine claims tensions between Prince William and Prince Harry have flared again over Princess Diana’s legacy, with a source suggesting Harry wants to pursue a screen project without William’s involvement and would lean on existing Netflix relationships to do it. Rob Shuter also claims Meghan wants to direct, with one source describing her as “intensely hands-on.”We also review comments from communications professionals who say the Sussexes’ staff turnover is unusually high and potentially damaging, warning that repeated departures have become a story in their own right and may make it harder to recruit top-tier advisers going forward.Get episodes of Palace Intrigue by becommming a paid subscriber on Apple Podcasts.
