Kate’s Done Looking Back as Harry and Andrew Become Yesterday’s Problems
Update: 2026-01-06
Description
A new profile suggests the Princess of Wales has emerged from cancer treatment with a renewed focus on family life and no appetite for revisiting tensions with the Sussexes. Sources say she and Prince William are concentrating on raising their children, with no contact at all between their household and Harry and Meghan.
We also examine reporting that challenges the portrayal of William as the driving force behind Prince Andrew’s removal from royal duties, suggesting instead a more conflicted position shaped by concern for his uncle’s wellbeing alongside institutional responsibility.
The episode looks at the contrasting roles of Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie, whose limited public presence mirrors the model once sought by Harry and Meghan, and considers whether that distinction continues to fuel resentment.
We also cover plans for a possible Scottish bank holiday to mark Scotland’s return to the men’s World Cup, royal congratulations following darts champion Luke Littler’s latest title, and developments in Norway, where increased reporting of abuse has followed renewed attention on the upcoming trial of Marius Borg Høiby.
Palace Intrigue is your daily royal family podcast, diving deep into the modern-day drama, power struggles, and scandals shaping the future of the monarchy.
