Royal Family

King Charles is already topping his late mother, the beloved Queen Elizabeth II, in one major way ... thanks to some superior financial planning.

The Sunday Times dropped their 2024 Rich List Friday ... which highlighted the wealthiest people in the UK, and unsurprisingly His Royal Highness made the list, but the standout fact is his net worth is worth far exceeds the former Windsor monarch's.

According to the list, the King is worth $770 million -- which shockingly only makes him the 258th richest person in the country. His fortune jumped significantly in the last year ... as his 2023 wealth was notably $12 million less.

King Charles proudly unveiled the first official portrait of himself since his coronation last year -- and let's just say ... the internet's reaction is more fire and brimstone than royal praise.

HRH was at Buckingham Palace Tuesday with Queen Camila, where he pulled down a massive curtain to reveal the highly-anticipated portrait -- which features a fiery red backdrop, to much shock from royal fans and normies everywhere.

Even Charles' finest Welsh Guards uniform for the painting couldn't distract from the real star of the show -- that bold, brash backdrop, which led to a tidal wave of online critiques/jokes.

Meghan Markle and Prince Harry's charitable foundation is no longer on Cali's s*** list -- 'cause it ain't delinquent anymore, and it sounds like it never should've been to begin with.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex's Archewell foundation has officially been changed from delinquent to "current" on the State of California's charities page -- a 180 that seems to have happened overnight ... which, as we've learned, is the result of mistake on the state's part.

As it turns out ... Harry and Meghan's org was never actually delinquent -- as sources with direct knowledge tell us the payments that were owed in association with renewal fees had, in fact, been paid way back in November ... amounting to $200.

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's charitable org has hit a snag -- being declared delinquent by the state of California, but there's a perfectly good explanation ... snail mail.

Here's the deal ... the Archewell Foundation was found to be "delinquent" this week on paying its renewal fees -- and it's technically barred from fundraising until that gets fixed. On its face, it sounded like the charity wasn't taking care of business ... but that's not quite the case.

We're told the reason Archewell was able to hit this not-so-great status is because a check to pay for these registration fees was simply never received, although we hear it was sent.

Meghan Markle was away from home on Mother's Day -- wrapping up her trip in Africa with  Prince Harry ... but longing for her children on the holiday, 'cause she said as much.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex spent their last day in Nigeria Sunday at an event at the Lagos State Government House -- and where she got on the mic at one point and addressed a crowd ... thanking them for welcoming her and Harry with open arms.

She also acknowledged the fact she wasn't with her kids -- Archie and Lilibet -- for the holiday ... but then said Nigeria wasn't a bad consolation, calling it the motherland.

King Charles says he lost his ability to taste as he continues to battle cancer -- and based on how he ended up revealing this ... it might give some insight into his treatment.

His Royal Highness was visiting the Army Flying Museum in South East England -- with Prince William tagging along -- where he spoke to a vet named Aaron Mapplebeck ... who said he'd lost his sense of taste while undergoing chemotherapy for testicular cancer.

As it turns out ... this has happened to Charles too -- 'cause he said as much in response to the guy ... although, it doesn't sound like he elaborated much beyond that.

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are unfazed by the flak she's gotten over missing her hubby's Invictus Games anniversary ... zipping on over to Nigeria, and putting on big smiles.

Per the Daily Mail, the couple quietly reunited Thursday at London's Heathrow Airport before taking off on their unofficial royal tour. Meghan was noticeably absent from her husband's stop in London though, where he celebrated the 10th anniversary of his charity.

Nonetheless, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex weren't apart for long ... as MM and PH reportedly linked up at Heathrow's VIP Windsor Suite before grabbing a flight to Nigeria's capital, Abuja -- where they were invited by the country's Chief of Defense Staff.

Prince Harry was without his Royal family during his Invictus Games event in London this week -- but he wasn't a man without a country ... 'cause the British public showed up.

The Duke of Sussex attended his big shindig at St. Paul's Cathedral Thursday to help ring in the 10-year anniversary of his famous charity -- and while he didn't have his dad, brother, or any other working Royal in attendance to help him celebrate ... he still powered through.

Harry showed up with a smile on before and after the commemoration ... and he even did a public walkabout to shake hands and exchange pleasantries with Britons on the ground.

Tom Selleck once jumped to Princess Diana's aid by taking her for a spin on a dance floor -- and he says he did it to spare her from petty gossip about John Travolta and her.

The actor tells this interesting story in his new memoir, 'You Never Know' ... explaining he was lightly cajoled into slow dancing with the late Princess of Wales in 1985 at a White House state dinner in order to ward off rumors she and Travolta were hooking up.

The way Selleck tells it, he was minding his own business -- hanging with Clint Eastwood in the East Room -- when Princess Di and the "Grease" actor decided to hit the dancefloor for a second time, and a woman rushed up to them speaking rapidly.

El príncipe Harry está en Londres para celebrar un hito de su fundación Invictus Games y aunque uno podría pensar que pasaría tiempo con su familia mientras esté allá, no es así.

El duque de Sussex se encuentra en su Inglaterra natal esta semana para celebrar el décimo aniversario de su organización de caridad, el que va a culminar con un servicio religioso en la Catedral de San Pablo en Londres, pero no se reunirá con el rey Carlos.

Un representante del Príncipe Harry dice: "Lamentablemente, eso no será posible debido a la agenda completa de Su Majestad".

Prince Harry is in London to celebrate a milestone for his Invictus Games foundation -- and while you'd think he might link up with family while across the pond ... you'd be wrong.

The Duke of Sussex is in his native England this week to celebrate the 10-year anniversary of his signature charity org, which is going to cap off with a church service at St. Paul's Cathedral in London ... but word is, he ain't gonna get any face time with King Charles.

A rep for PH says ... "It unfortunately will not be possible due to His Majesty's full program."

King Charles is stepping back into the public eye while undergoing treatment for cancer ... and on the heels of reports he's in failing health.

The British monarch visited a cancer hospital Tuesday in London, where he was joined by his wife, Queen Camilla -- who has taken up a number of additional royal duties amid the king's health struggles.

Together, the royal couple mingled with medical specialists and patients at the University College Hospital Macmillan Cancer Centre, discussing the importance of detecting cancer early.

El rey Carlos está volviendo al ojo público mientras recibe tratamiento para el cáncer, y solo unos días después de que unos informes sugirieran que su estado de salud no va bien.

El monarca británico visitó un hospital para el cáncer el martes en Londres, acompañado de su esposa la reina Camilla, quien ha asumido una serie de labores reales adicionales en medio de los problemas de salud del rey.

La pareja real se reunió con especialistas médicos y pacientes en el University College Hospital Macmillan Cancer Centre, donde discutieron sobre la importancia de detectar tempranamente el cáncer.

El Rey Carlos parece estar tratando de acallar los rumores sobre su mala salud, ya que la Familia Real acaba de anunciar que volverá a la vida pública, justo después de que algunos informes sugirieran que su batalla contra el cáncer no va bien.

La cuenta en X de la Familia Real publicó una foto del rey y su esposa, la reina Camilla, el viernes, donde la pareja se ve feliz y saludable, al mismo tiempo que asegura que Su Alteza Real se hará cargo de los deberes públicos de nuevo a partir del martes, los que comenzarán con una visita a un centro de tratamiento para el cáncer.

En la declaración también dicen que el Rey Carlos y la Reina Camilla recibirán al Emperador y la Emperatriz de Japón en junio, una importante visita de Estado, y aparentemente otro movimiento para demostrar que el Rey puede manejar responsabilidades importantes.

King Charles seems to be trying to put rumors of his ill health to bed -- the Royal Family just announced he'll return to the spotlight, this after reports his cancer battle isn't going well.

The Royal Family's X account posted a pic of the king and his wife, Queen Camilla, online Friday -- showing the couple looking happy and healthy ... while declaring His Royal Highness will take over public duties again beginning Tuesday by visiting a cancer treatment center.

Also in the statement ... word of KC and QC hosting the Emperor and Empress of Japan in June -- a major state visit coming up soon, and yet another seemingly tactical move by The Firm to prove the King can handle all major responsibilities.

Al parecer, el rey Charles no está muy bien en medio de su batalla contra el cáncer, de hecho, sus ayudantes están aparentemente desempolvando sus planes funerarios y actualizándolos regularmente.

El Daily Beast publicó un artículo el jueves que dice que Su Alteza Real está en mal estado de salud y que siguen los tratamientos para su cáncer, el cual sigue siendo un misterio. Lo único que el Palacio ha dicho es que no es cáncer de próstata...

Mientras el Rey ha sido visto estos últimos meses después de su diagnóstico -aparentemente con aspecto saludable y robusto- "The Beast" informa que no está muy bien realmente.
