Less than two years after tying the knot in a storybook wedding at St. George’s Chapel, Windsor Castle, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle made a decision that would change their lives when they decided to step down from their royal duties.
The duke and duchess moved to America and publicly discussed their experience as working royals. Meghan, who was not brought up in the royal world like her husband, explained in her bombshell interview with Oprah Winfrey that she had a particularly tough time adjusting to life as a working member of Britain’s most famous family.
A commentator believes that’s very true and says it’s because Meghan wanted two things that the royals wouldn’t give her.

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s whirlwind trip to Nigeria has come and gone. As the Duke and Duchess of Sussex presumably make their way home to Montecito, California, an expert says King Charles III and Prince William likely want to make one thing absolutely “clear.” What?

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle left the royal family back in 2020, and the two have lived very separate lives from the other royals ever since. Over the last four years, tensions have continued between Harry and his older brother, Prince William, but Harry did once say during his interview with Oprah Winfrey that he would always leave the door open for a reconciliation.
Rumor has it that Prince Harry wants to rekindle his friendship with his big brother, especially after learning of Kate Middleton’s cancer diagnosis (Kate and Harry were once incredibly close). But a source close to the Duchess of Sussex claims she is “terrified” and thinks Harry is being “naïve” for wanting a friendship with William.

There are reports circulating that Meghan Markle has offered an olive branch to the Princess of Wales (formerly known as Kate Middleton) as she continues to recover from abdominal surgery. Because these are unconfirmed reports and may just be a way of generating some positive PR for Harry’s wife during a time when people can’t stop talking about Kate, many royal watchers are taking the news with a grain of salt.
However, one royal expert says that even if the reports are true, the princess is not interested in reconciling or accepting any sort of olive branch from the duchess. Read on to find out why.

April’s an uncommonly strong auteurist month for the Criterion Channel, who will highlight a number of directors––many of whom aren’t often grouped together. Just after we screened House of Tolerance at the Roxy Cinema, Criterion are showing it and Nocturama for a two-film Bertrand Bonello retrospective, starting just four days before The Beast opens. Larger and rarer (but just as French) is the complete Jean Eustache series Janus toured last year. Meanwhile, five William Friedkin films and work from Makoto Shinkai, Lizzie Borden, and Rosine Mbakam are given a highlight.

The “atmosphere” behind palace walls is reportedly “gloomy” amid a tumultuous start to 2024. Commentators say the British royal family’s doing their best to keep going with a “business as usual” attitude. However, it’s not quite working as these are “unprecedented” times for the monarchy.

Prior to meeting Prince Harry, Meghan Markle starred in the legal drama Suits playing the role of Rachel Zane. Following the popularity of the show after it became available to stream on Netflix, there was an announcement that a new show called Suits: LA is in the works.

It’s simply a matter of time until Meghan enters the world of daytime talk shows, according to royal expert Christopher Andersen. “If Meghan doesn’t end up hosting a daytime syndicated talk show, I’ll be surprised,” he told Ok! magazine.

The royal rift between Prince Harry and Meghan Markle and the rest of the family has continued to make headlines in recent years. The Duke and Duchess of Sussex have been living in California since 2020, and they have hardly returned to the UK. Harry and Meghan hardly speak to Prince William and Kate Middleton, and it doesn’t look like things between the two couples will be cleared up any time soon.
Now, though, one member of Kate’s family has been warned not to “widen” the royal rift, as it could wind up making things much worse.

When King Charles took the throne following Queen Elizabeth II’s death in 2022, it was immediately made clear that the king would favor a “slimmed-down” monarchy — one in which there were fewer working royals. He certainly got his wish, considering Prince Harry and Meghan Markle left the royal family several years before Charles even took the throne.
Plus, with Prince Andrew removed from his royal duties, the monarchy keeps getting smaller. But what happens when Charles dies? With so few people currently in the working royal position, Prince William and Kate Middleton will need others to step in when they become king and queen — and that might be where Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie come in.

Prince William and Prince Harry aren’t on good terms, to say the least. As such, they don’t do the occasional get-together with their wives and children. According to a royal commentator, that leaves the Prince of Wales to play the uncle “role” not with his brother’s children but with his in-laws.
William can ‘relish’ being ‘uncle’ to Pippa and James Middleton’s children
Speaking to Ok! Magazine, royal expert Jennie Bond explained how William, 41, can’t seemingly be “uncle” to Harry and Meghan Markle’s kids, Prince Archie, 4, and Princess Lilibet, 2. That leaves him to play the “role” with his nieces and nephews on his wife, Kate Middleton’s side of the family.
“Especially as it seems that William is unlikely ever to play a role in the lives of Harry’s children, he can relish being Uncle to Pippa and James’s brood,” Bond said, referring...

After stepping down as working royals, Prince Harry and his wife Meghan Markle launched a series of verbal attacks against the duke’s family. One example of that came in the Sussexes’ Netflix documentary titled Harry & Meghan when the prince said “so many people in the family” marry “someone who would fit the mold” rather than following their heart.
Viewers interpreted that as a shot at Prince William who married the Princess of Wales (formerly known as Kate Middleton) in 2011. Now, Will and Kate’s fans are clapping back to dispute Harry’s claim and prove that the Waleses are “soulmates.”

Friends fans already miss Matthew Perry. The Chandler Bing actor died in October 2023, and he wasn’t married at the time of his death. While he once spoke about potentially marrying his most recent ex-fiancée, Molly Hurwitz, their relationship didn’t work out. And Hurwitz allegedly lost “romantic” interest in Perry following a scandal with the dating app Raya.

Matthew Perry thought he found “the one” with Molly Hurwitz. The Friends actor started dating the literary agent in 2018, and they were engaged by November 2020. Perry was 22 years older than Hurwitz.
“I decided to get engaged,” Perry told People in 2020. “Luckily, I happened to be dating the greatest woman on the face of the planet at this time.”
Another source shared with Ok! Magazine that Perry was happy and motivated with Hurwitz by his side. “Matthew’s been to hell and back.

It seems Prince Harry and Meghan Markle aren’t going out of their way to “bridge the gap” between them and their fellow British royals. An expert says the Duke and Duchess of Sussex may not actively be distancing themselves from royals such as Prince William, King Charles III, and Kate Middleton. But they’re not trying to close the “gap” either.
It’s debatable whether Harry and Meghan are intentionally ‘trying to widen the divide’ between them and royals
Speaking to Ok! magazine about where the couple stands on the rift, royal expert Jennie Bond said the only thing that’s “certain” is Harry and Meghan’s seeming lack of effort to come together as a family.

Prince George’s future may or may not include boarding school. If it does, an expert believes it will be a “sad” moment in the young royal’s life. George, 10, could potentially be spending more time away from his family than he ever has before. This means there’d be an end to the “tight family unit” that’s Prince William, Kate Middleton, and their three children.

Meghan Markle and Prince Harry have been married since 2018, and ever since Meghan met such a high-profile husband, she has certainly spent her share of time in the spotlight. The Duke and Duchess of Sussex have attended a number of events together, and while the cameras are often on Meghan, she sometimes would prefer the focus remain on Harry.
It turns out the duchess has a subtle trick for making sure viewers’ eyes go more toward Harry than her.

The 1950s are considered the “Golden Age” of science fiction cinema, and that’s not just hyperbole. By many accounts, more than 200 sci-fi movies were released during that decade. And while the film industry had sporadically produced quality sci-fi in the years before—ranging from Aelita (1924) to Metropolis (1927), to The Invisible Man (1933)—it wasn’t until the 1950s that classic after classic began to arrive like riches from a long-lost hidden treasure.
And when we say classic, we mean films that essentially created the template for all science fiction movies that followed. Just look at this list. The first half of the decade brought us The Thing from Another World, When Worlds Collide, 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea, Creature from the Black Lagoon, Godzilla, and Them!, while the second half ushered in This Island Earth, Forbidden Planet, Invasion of the Body Snatchers, The Incredible Shrinking Man, The Blob, The Fly,...

After Prince Harry and Meghan Markle stepped down from their royal duties in 2020, the couple did both joint and separate interviews about their time as working royals and painted a few of Harry’s relatives in a less-than-positive light. The duke and duchess also released the Netflix docuseries titled Harry & Meghan which again took aim at some members of Britain’s most famous family. The prince then released his bombshell memoir Spare, divulging more details about The Firm.
One person whose name was put out there more than once by the Sussexes is the Princess of Wales (formerly known as Kate Middleton). Besides the late Queen Elizabeth‘s “recollections may vary” statement following Meghan and Harry’s Oprah interview, the royals have not responded to the verbal grenades being tossed their way. They have instead stuck to their old “never complain, never explain” policy. And as one commentator pointed out,...

Following David Zaslav’s despicable gutting of Turner Classic Movies earlier this summer––one of many anti-art maneuvers the money-hungry Warner Bros. Discovery CEO and president has commandeered in his embarrassing, hopefully short-lived tenure––he hoped to curry some favor by bringing together the holy trinity of filmmakers to guide the future of the channel. Now, after a few weeks on the job of “network advisors,” Martin Scorsese, Steven Spielberg, and Paul Thomas Anderson have shared their picks of what to see on the channel this month.
The first two mentioned filmmakers provided videos of their recommendations, with the Killers of the Flower Moon director recommending the Boris Karloff-led Isle of the Dead, Two Sisters from Boston, Victor Fleming’s melodrama Red Dust, and Joseph Losey’s Accident.

Moviegoers around the world are about to be taken to school by some of the top masters of the field this fall, between new movies by Ridley Scott, Michael Mann, David Fincher, and Martin Scorsese, among others. But as much as cinephiles can spend their entire day arguing about each and every one of these heralded directors online, what can truly compare to getting a little crash course in film history by someone who's commonly considered the greatest filmmaker alive? Many would agree that Steven Spielberg is simply in a class of his own, and thanks to his new role as part of the advisory panel for the esteemed Turner Classic Movies institution, that's exactly what fans are getting.

What’s so inspiring and energizing about Steven Spielberg is that he isn’t just one of the greatest filmmakers ever, he’s an eclectic cinephile who talks about his favorite films with the boyish enthusiasm of a fan.
So he was a natural fit, alongside Martin Scorsese and Paul Thomas Anderson, for the advisory panel that came together in June to support Turner Classic Movies. As part of that role, he’s recorded his first “Spielberg’s Picks” video, a recommendations list of his personal faves from the September 2023 TCM lineup. Watch the video above, an IndieWire exclusive, for not just his choices, but his incisive comments.
For his debut picks, he chose Vincente Minnelli’s “Meet Me in St. Louis” (1944), Douglas Sirk’s “Imitation of Life” (1959), Gordon Douglas’s “Them!” (1954), Minnelli’s “The Bad and the Beautiful” (1952), and Alfred Hitchcock’s “The Wrong Man” (1957).

Harry and Charles have been rumored to have scheduled peace talks for sometime in September, but now, the newest rumor churning is that Harry refuses to meet with his father unless Meghan can be present as well.

For Oscar-winning film composer Michael Giacchino (“Up”), Steven Spielberg’s “Raiders of the Lost Ark” is the defining movie of his life. It’s what sparked his love of movies and film scores, and what started him on his path to becoming a successful composer, all thanks to John Williams’ rousing, orchestral masterpiece.
Giacchino, who most recently scored Taika Waititi’s “Next Goal Wins” and Juan Antonio Bayona’s “Society of the Snow,” and is prepping a remake of the giant ant movie “Them!” as his directorial feature debut, first saw “Raiders” as a 13-year-old in New Jersey when it opened the summer of 1981. He went back about a dozen times and even sneaked a tape recorder into the theater so he could replay it every night. He also had the soundtrack on vinyl and later bought a second LP containing score, dialogue, and sound effects.

Prince William and Kate Middleton share three children: Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis. As the kids grow up, they’re becoming more accustomed to royal life and more aware of how their own lives differ from most kids their age. Still, despite that their parents are the future King and Queen of the United Kingdom, the kids lead relatively normal lives. And Prince William has reportedly made it his mission to be a “hands-on” father — because his own father, King Charles, was not.
Growing up, William and his younger brother, Prince Harry, spent so much time with their mother, the late Princess Diana. But William reportedly doesn’t want the same type of father-child relationship with his own children.

Daughters of Prince Andrew and Sarah Ferguson, Beatrice and Eugenie are not among the royal family’s working royals. That means their “job” isn’t carrying out duties on behalf of the crown.
Instead, they’re among the royal family’s non-working members with professions outside palace walls who make the occasional public appearance.

Prince Harry is going it alone to see his father, King Charles III, crowned. Without his wife, Meghan Markle, a historian says attending the coronation solo will leave the Duke of Sussex vulnerable.
Coronation expected to be a ‘nightmare’ for Harry without ‘support’ from Meghan Markle Prince Harry and Meghan Markle | Chris Jackson/Getty Images
Going to the coronation alone is going to “be a bit of a nightmare” for Harry, historian Tessa Dunlop told Ok! Magazine.
“I was watching the body language when he came out of St. George’s Chapel when [Queen Elizabeth II] had finally been laid to rest on the last day of the funeral itself,” Dunlop said. “He was helping Meghan into the car, and he just wasn’t a man who was comfortable in his skin.”
“And this time he’s coming over without the support of Meghan,” she continued. “Clearly, he does lean on her very heavily.

Sure, they both married into the royal family as commoners, but the Princess of Wales and the Duchess of Sussex grew up in very “different” environments, according to historian Tessa Dunlop.
“Meghan comes from Hollywood, her dad was a reasonably successful lighting director,” Dunlop said (via Ok! Magazine).
The now-41-year-old grew up in Los Angeles, California, living in the View Park-Windsor Hills neighborhood. She attended Immaculate Heart, a Catholic private school.
Meghan’s parents — Doria Ragland and Thomas Markle — divorced when she was six but remained on good terms during her childhood.
