What Kate Middleton Really Thinks About Prince William's Feud with Prince Harry - Showbiz Cheat Sheet

Unless you just haven’t been paying attention to any royal news in recent months, you are well aware of the rumors of a rift between Prince William and his younger brother, Prince Harry. For months now, we have wondered what is really going on, as there have been numerous versions as to what may have or may have not happened.

We know that the brothers have always been pretty close. After all, growing up in the spotlight with the entire world watching certainly isn’t easy, and they were always there to support each other. Although life most definitely has its ups and downs, no one wants to see the royal brothers drift apart.

Recently, in a documentary that was aired regarding Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s recent tour of Africa, PrinceHarry surprised everyone by actually addressing the ongoing feud. We can only imagine that it can’t be easy for the other family members to see the strong bond that Prince William and Prince Harry once had coming apart. So, what does Kate Middleton really think about Prince William’s feud with Harry?

What is happening between Prince William and Prince Harry?

Prince William and Prince Harry have been living in the royal spotlight since the day that they were born. They have always been close, and after the unexpected death of their beloved mother, Princess Diana, they likely became even closer and they supported each other through the most difficult time.

Now that they are both married with children of their own, we would think that they would be closer than ever. So, what happened? Well, according to Nicki Swift, things may have begun before Duchess Meghan and Prince Harry were even married, when Prince William expressed concern that the relationship was moving too fast.

No one in the royal family really had a chance to get to know Markle before the couple became engaged, and Prince William apparently spoke to his brother about the situation. Prince Harry became extremely offended, and there has been tension ever since. 

So many rumors swirling about the royal feud

Typically, what goes on behind palace doors stays behind palace doors, which is why we can only speculate as to what exactly is going on. For a long time, we knew that there was some sort of a feud happening, but it was actually rumored to be between Duchesses Meghan and Duchess Kate.

According to Glamour, it all started when Duchess Meghan was planning her wedding, and Duchess Kate left a dress fitting in tears. Although Kensington Palace did their best to shut down rumors, it seemed that there were always reports of tension between the Duchess of Sussex and the Duchess of Cambridge.

Things got so bad at one point that there was even speculation that the reason Duchess Meghan and Prince Harry were relocating to Windsor was that the sisters-in-law couldn’t stand to live so close to each other. It wasn’t until we saw them interacting and acting as if nothing was wrong during an event at Westminster Abbey that the rumors were finally put to rest, and we learned that the real rift was between Prince Harry and Prince William.

What Kate Middleton really things about Prince William’s feud with Prince Harry

One of the most concerning aspects of the royal feud between the brothers is how it must be making their wives feel. So, what does Middleton think?

According to Us Weekly, the Duchess of Cambridge truly hates seeing all of the drama and hopes that her husband and brother-in-law can patch things up and move on. Although Prince Harry said that he and Prince William “will always be brothers,” and even expressed his love for the future king, it is devastating to know that things aren’t the way they once were.

Royal snub: Why was Meghan Markle standing on her own on Remembrance Day? - Express

While some speculated it was a sign of a deepening rift within the family, the reason is actually just practical.

The balconies of the Foreign & Commonwealth Office are small, and only three people at a time are advised to stand on them for events such as this for safety reasons.

The royals will then be split up in order of precedence - so the Queen stood with the two future Queen consorts, and Meghan stood with the others.

However, despite Sunday’s royal showing not having much deeper significance, the rumours of a rift in the family have taken root, and Saturday’s outing did nothing to quell them.

Meghan Markle’s pal reveals how Duchess took four-month-old Archie on one-day trip to NYC - Express

Ms Williams has revealed that Meghan Markle secretly brought baby Archie with her to New York in an interview where the 23-time major tennis champion also declared the Duchess of Sussex is ”the strongest person I know." Ms Williams also said that the Duchess of Sussex is always free for a chat. The Duchess of Sussex flew across the Atlantic for the final of the tournament in September, when Archie was four-months-old.

It was widely assumed that Meghan left Archie with Prince Harry when she flew out to the US Open.

Mrs Williams said Meghan flew back to the UK straight after watching Ms Williams lose to Bianca Andreescu in the final.

She told Access Hollywood: "She flew all the way with a newborn to see me play in New York and flew all the way back that night, and I probably couldn't have done that.

"I think it's really cool to have a group of friends who are doing amazing things and face the same pressures you face with being in the public eye."

Mrs Williams praised Meghan over how she has dealt with the intense scrutiny that comes with being a member of the royal family.

Meghan hugged the player's husband, Reddit founder Alexis Ohanian, as they arrived to watch Mrs Williams take on 19-year-old Canadian Bianca Andreescu in the women's singles at Flushing Meadows.

The victory for Serena would have been her first Grand Slam since giving birth to daughter Alexis in September 2017.

The Duchess looked relaxed in a denim dress with a grey jacket over her shoulders and sunglasses hooked into her neckline when she attended the event, but Archie was not present at the courts.

JUST IN: Prince Philip misses Remembrance Sunday for second year

The Duchess, who reportedly flew by commercial plane for her latest trip to New York, also watched on from the royal box at Wimbledon when Serena played in the final there this year.

Serena lost in straight sets at Wimbledon.

The pair became friends after meeting at an American football Super Bowl party in 2010.

Meghan was also seen greeting Serena’s mother Oracene Price during the match.

Serena’s sister, the former tennis star Venus Williams, was also spotted one row behind Meghan chatting to Ms Wintour.

Other celebrities at the event included legendary director Spike Lee, model Gigi Hadid and model-turned-actress Cara Delevingne.

However, not everyone was happy to see the Duchess at the US open final.

While Ms Williams was thrilled to have her best friend at the match, her coach was reportedly “worried” at the royal’s presence.

Mr Mouratoglou feared that the Duchess’s presence could be unlucky for Ms Williams’ performance.

Astroworld Festival hits a high note

1  /  82

Back to Gallery

Travis Scott knows how to put on a festival.

His second annual Astroworld Festival is a blueprint others should follow. Perfect time of year. A diverse, fresh lineup. A smart blend of local nostalgia and current culture.

THE FULL STORY: See more photos, video and get a recap of the Astroworld Festival

And he keeps people guessing. The lineup, a diverse mix of genres, dropped just before noon Friday and included shock rocker Marilyn Manson, Pharrell Williams and the Houston All Stars rap collective. That meant it was at the top of social media trends as a lead up to Saturday.

It was great to see two women, local breakout Megan Thee Stallion and Spanish singer Rosalía, breaking up the testosterone — even if they were both relegated to the smaller second stage. Last year’s inaugural fest was all men.

Tickets sold out in September, but more were released Friday. More than 50,000 people were expected to attend Saturday at NRG Park, across the street from the old Astroworld location.

Scott has frequently mentioned the iconic amusement park that entertained locals with roller coasters, a water park and an outdoor concert venue. He's named the festival, an album and tour after it and has used old Astroworld footage as a promotional tool.

Astroworld opened on June 1, 1968 and closed on Oct. 30, 2005. Buoyed by Scott's love for the park, Mayor Sylvester Turner has vowed to bring it back. He tweeted last month to expect an announcement before the end of the year.

Until then, Scott's extravaganza is a solid substitute. Aside from music, the daylong event featured carnival rides and games. Some opted for the funhouse, complete with warped mirrors and mazes. Others congregated at an old-school arcade that boasted skee ball, air hockey and a prize crane.

A large silver skull that resembled Scott welcomed fans once they entered the gates. It replaced last year’s gold Scott head. Lines for food and rides grew quickly. Several young men walked around with multiple bags of Astroworld merch, including hoodies and sweat pants.

This year’s edition was much more crowded much earlier. Some fans even lined up Friday night to be the first inside. The excited crowds initially overwhelmed staff, breaking through the gates and rushing toward the entrance. Three people suffered leg injuries during the stampede and were transported to Memorial Hermann Hospital, according to the Houston Fire Department.

The Houston Police tweeted Saturday that they were “working together to support Houston's biggest music festival” and were “collaborating closely with the festival to ensure the public safety of everyone attending the event.”

Fans raced between stages throughout the day to catch Migos, Pharrell Williams, Young Thug and Sheck Wes, who closed his expletive-filled set by telling fans to “keep following your dreams.” Each act was given 30 minutes with the exception of Scott, whose closing set was 75 minutes.

Even before the “Htown Hottie” took the stage, the crowd warmed up with chants of “Megan! Megan!” It’s no surprise. Megan Thee Stallion is one of the biggest new stars of the year, and her “hot girl summer” catchphrase became a national obsession. She was given a slightly later time slot when Gucci Mane was mysteriously dropped from the lineup.

Megan strutted onstage in a leopard bodysuit and a braid past her knees. She packed her set with a lot, from dancers to crowd participation. She brought several people onstage to join in the twerk-fest.

She was here last month for a headlining show at Revention Music Center, but this performance felt rawer and more aggressive. She has a bracing energy when she raps, leading the crowd through several songs, including “Realer,” “Simon Says” and “Hot Girl Summer.” Next year,

The Stallion deserves a nighttime slot on the main stage.

The Houston All Stars had a big mid-afternoon crowd throwing their H’s up and included Slim Thug, Paul Wall, Lil Flip, Trae Tha Truth and Bun B. Slim Thug thanked “the lil homie Travis Scott” for putting on the festival.

Maxo Kream, a newer name among the local legends, brought a rush of energy and prompted the crowd to form a mosh pit. He was dressed in Oilers blue and red to further push the Htown vibe.

On Saturday, the Grease actor, 65, posted a rare photo of his 8-year-old son, Ben, looking ready to fly while sitting in the cockpit of an airplane and wearing a pilot’s cap.

In the image, Ben is seen hanging out in the pilot seat with a friend. Travolta noted in his Instagram caption that his son was pretend-flying his “first A380 @qantas flight.”

“My son Ben is taking my place!” Travolta added, referencing his own role as an ambassador for Qantas Airways.

While Travolta does not typically put his kids, Ben and Ella Bleu, 19 — who he shares with wife Kelly Preston — in the spotlight, he opened up to PEOPLE this summer about some of their most recent interests.

Travolta said he couldn’t be prouder of his daughter, who decided to follow in the footsteps of her famous parents and pursue acting. She recently starred in The Poison Rose, a thriller that starred her father and Morgan Freeman.

“She is her own person. She is gracious, generous, poised, graceful and gorgeous. I don’t know how she came to be, and I don’t take any credit other than just adoring her,” said Travolta. “And maybe that’s a valid contribution.”

Meanwhile, he said his son Ben is also keeping busy with several hobbies of his own.

“He’s into gymnastics, tennis, fishing and the computer world, like all the kids,” added the actor.

Travolta also shared that he believes it’s important to let kids be able to speak their mind.

“I really do believe that children have rights. Just because they are little bodies doesn’t mean that they shouldn’t have a say-so,” he said. “I find when you consult them, they can come up with much better ideas than yours.”

Original 'Marlboro Man' Robert 'Bob' Norris has died - CNN

Robert 'Bob' Norris died in the care of Pikes Peak Hospice in Colorado Springs, Colorado, on Nov. 3, according to a statement released by Tee Cross Ranches, which he founded. Norris was 90.

"If any man could be described in three words, for Bob they would be 'the real deal.' His solid authenticity, whether astride a horse, sitting in a board room, mentoring a child or sharing a moment with a friend, was his personal and professional brand. No doubt it was these qualities -- along with his tall, ruggedly handsome, lanky good looks -- that landed him the unexpected role of the first 'Marlboro Man' on television," the statement on the ranch's website said.

Norris, who was "never a smoker," was featured in the commercials for 14 years, according to the statement. He abandoned the advertising campaign when Norris "felt he was setting a poor example for his children," the statement added.

Norris was a member of the board of trustees for the National Cowboy & Western Heritage Museum, also known as the Cowboy Hall of Fame, the ranch's website said.

CNN's Shawn Nottingham contributed to this report.

Penelope Disick, 7, Piggybacks Brother Reign, 4, As Kourtney Escapes To Kanye’s Wyoming Ranch — Pics - Hollybaby

Kourtney Kardashian was enjoying a weekend in the country at Kanye West’s $14 million Wyoming ranch!

Kourtney Kardashian, 40, escaped the hustle and bustle of Los Angeles for a low key family weekend. The mom-of-three shared the cutest family photos and videos as they took in the relaxing scenery in Wyoming — including a hilarious video of her 7-year-old daughter Penelope Disick giving her little brother Reign, 4, a piggy back! Sweet Reign was all smiles as he rocked a beanie that read “Tuff Crowd” while stylish P — who also goes by the nickname Poosh — ran as fast as she could in her stylish cowboy boots! 9-year-old Mason also appeared to be having a blast as he ran through a field with a white hoodie. “We have everything we need 🙏🏼,” Kourtney captioned the family memories.

The reality star and her kids were bundled up for the chilly temperatures, which are in the 50 degree range during the day. Kourt was cute and cozy in short olive puffer jacket, matching pants, and beige hiking boots as she held a sleepy Reign in her arms. Other images show the gorgeous scenery on the sprawling property, including a breathtaking sunrise, a trip to the horse barn, and a super-fun ride on an ATV four-wheeler! The endless fields looked like an absolute dream, and the kids were taking full advantage of their nature-filled getaway!

The 9,000-acre property — which is called Monster Lake Ranch — was purchased by Kourtney’s brother-in-law Kanye West for $14 million back in September. Kanye technically owns 4,500 acres of the land, located just out of Cody, which features eight-lodging units, two freshwater lakes, a restaurant, and, of course, horse barns. The family property seems to be put to good use already, as Kim Kardashian, 39, shared photos of her getaway there with daughters North, 6, and Chicago, 1 back on Sept. 14. Kanye, who is also a fan of visiting Jackson Hole, was also using the space to put the finishing touches on his upcoming Jesus Is King album.

Given Kourtney’s passion for holistic wellness, travel and all things nature — as documented on her lifestyle site Poosh — we aren’t surprised to see her kicking back at the stunning ranch!
