The Duke and Duchess of Sussex shared the same pot of funding from their father’s Duchy of Cornwall estate while working royals. However, Prince William took priority over his brother, stoking arguments and “jealousy,” according to Andrew Morton. The former royal correspondent wrote the definitive biography of Princess Diana, with her help, exposing Prince Charles’ affair in the 1990s. Now he has released new chapters to his 2018 biography Meghan: A Hollywood Princess, which Newsweek has read....

The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge arrived at the Commonwealth Day service, at Westminster Abbey, on Monday, March 14, without an umbrella. However, as they left it began to rain and the couple were empty handed, with Kate having only a hat to shield her. Prince William, however, was seen turning to one side and taking an umbrella from a bystander in military uniform before placing it over his wife’s head in a video captured by Getty....

Prince William and Kate’s three children made the touching card for their great-grandparents as the queen and Prince Philip mark 73 years of marriage. The monarch, 94, and her husband were photographed reading it and other letters in Windsor Castle this week. A picture released by Buckingham Palace shows the 99-year-old prince holding the homemade card, which has a colorful “73” on the front. The walls of Windsor Castle are visible through the window behind them as they sit on a sofa studying the children’s message....

In an interview with journalist Martin Bashir for the BBC’s Panorama program, Harry’s late mother unveiled details about how she was treated by the “establishment” and the breakdown of her health. Meghan spoke of similar experiences with the royal family during her sit-down with Oprah, which aired on CBS Sunday evening. User @Morgan_Musick tweeted: “Well this aged well. #HarryandMeghanonOprah,” sharing a clip that begins with Diana being asked why she didn’t think she’d ever become the queen....

Diana was a beloved world figure who drew enormous crowds of people who wanted to see her (and what she was wearing) wherever she went. Much like her daughter-in-law Kate Middleton, Diana had a powerful image, and she used clothing to convey powerful messages when at specific occasions. Diana befriended many of the designers who created her tour wardrobes, and it is through these dresses and outfits that some of the most lasting images of the former Princess of Wales remain....

Logano’s conversation had two thrusts: a 2015 season badly ended and a promising 2016 campaign for the No. 22 Team Penske Ford. MORE: Winless Daytona 500 stars | Matt Kenseth doesn’t regret wrecking Logano For practical purposes, Logano’s 2015 run at a possible first championship came to a brutal halt when Matt Kenseth drove him into the Turn 1 wall at Martinsville — retaliation for an incident two weeks earlier at Kansas, where Logano turned Kenseth, the race leader, with five laps left and prevented the veteran Joe Gibbs Racing driver from advancing in the Chase....

According to the Hindustan Times, Raman Saini, a 28-year-old inmate at Tihar jail in Delhi, was investigated by the prison guards due to the fact that the metal detectors kept going off when he was scanned, but they couldn’t find any metal on him. Eventually Saini revealed that he had swallowed four miniature mobile phones in March 2022 in an attempt to smuggle them into the prison, but he had then not been able to get them out in either direction....

When Tommy Fisher, the CEO of Fisher Industries, first embarked on the project to build the self-described “Lamborghini” of walls, he had promised to transform U.S. border security by building his wall directly on the banks of the Rio Grande. That ambition, however, could soon be his undoing, as new photos show parts of the ground below the border wall, which was built using funds raised through We Build the Wall, a private group whose advisory board is chaired by former White House adviser Steve Bannon, being heavily eroded by heavy rains and wind brought on by hurricane-turned-tropical storm Hanna....

Or maybe not. About a third of white evangelicals say that abortion should sometimes or always be legal, according to the Pew Research Center—a number that hasn’t changed in a decade. In recent election seasons, however, these moderate voices have been drowned out by hard-line shouting on both sides. In the past, an evangelical who might condone abortion in the case of his ailing wife or 14-year-old daughter would never say so in public....

Peters, who serves as the Mesa County clerk, has been under investigation since January for a security breach of elections equipment during the 2020 election. Peters is accused of letting a person who is not an employee access a Mesa County building that contained election equipment.

Zelensky said in a video address to the nation that he is probing over 650 cases of suspected treason and aiding and abetting Russia by Ukrainian law enforcement officials, and that there are 60 cases in which officials are “working against our state.” Prosecutor general Iryna Venediktova and security chief Ivan Bakanov had been suspended, Zelensky said. “Such an array of crimes against the foundations of the state’s national security, and the links recorded between Ukrainian security forces and Russian special services raise very serious questions about their respective leaders,” he said....

Newsom is defending his seat ahead of a September 14 statewide gubernatorial recall election that could result in his removal from office if a majority of California voters decide to cast him out. Elder, a conservative radio host who is running as a Republican candidate in the recall, has routinely polled ahead of other recall candidates since launching his campaign in July and is widely considered the frontrunner of the field....

As Russian President Vladimir Putin’s invasion continues, two students launched a petition recently against Michael Jabara Carley, a history professor at the school, stating that he was pushing Russian propaganda onto students. Twitter posts by Carley since the start of the invasion on February 24 led to the creation of the petition. While Carley’s Twitter and Facebook accounts have allegedly been deleted, a screenshot of one of his tweets taken by the Montreal Gazette says: “If #US #NATO do not alter policy, Russia’s only guarantee of security is the disappearance of fascist Ukraine....

The two star Americans solidified themselves as the best in their respective sports, each taking home four gold medals and setting the stage for a several years of dominance in international competition. Biles came into the 2021 Tokyo Olympics with 25 world championship medals — 19 gold — that was the most all-time among gymnasts, while Ledecky’s 20 gold medals between the Olympics and world championships were the most of any women’s swimmer in history....

It’s usually easy to pick out which hospitals are teaching hospitals because they most often have the word “university” in the name of the hospital. There will be a University of ____ (fill in the name of the university, state or city) hospital or it will just be called “University Hospital.” According to the American Association of Medical Colleges, as of early 2012, there were 136 accredited academic medical schools in the United States and 17 in Canada, representing 400 teaching hospitals and health systems, and 62 VA (Veterans Affairs) hospitals....

There is no single answer. Much of the solution lies in a more determined and better use of government resources, Part of it lies in so-called self-help efforts–things such as mentoring programs that put young African-Americans in close contact with successful black adults. But perhaps the hardest part lies in breathing life into an almost faded dream–of an America that is truly integrated instead of divided into warring worlds. This week, African-Americans will celebrate the 30th anniversary of the March on Washington, which did much to make people aware of the need to bring together the two Americas....
