Royal Family watch Trooping the Colour flypast from Buckingham Palace balcony

King Charles is marking a major milestone in his return to public duties today as he attends an ancient ceremony in Windsor.

The monarch has hit the ground running since he returned to public-facing royal duties at the end of April – visiting the theatre and embarking on overseas trips – as he continues treatment for cancer.

On Monday afternoon, he and the Queen attended the Garter Day service commemorating the Ladies and Knights of the ancient Order of the Garter.

As the King returns to tradition, Meghan Markle has embarked on a new business venture across the Atlantic.

Friends of the Duchess of Sussex have teased an unlikely product she may be launching as part of her lifestyle brand American Riviera Orchard.

Polo player and good friend of Meghan and Prince Harry, Nacho Figueras shared an image of his dog with some bone-shaped treats that appear to have been sent by the duchess alongside some jam.

The container adorned the same typography and beige bow Meghan uses for her trademark jams.

Fathers Day messages from three royal generations

Three generations of the royal family paid tribute to their fathers on Sunday in a number of heartwarming tributes.

George, Charlotte and Louis penned their first social media post paying tribute to their father Prince William, while the Prince of Wales himself shared a throwback snap of him and the King.

The palace also paid tribute to Charles’ late father, Prince Phillip, as they shared a sweet video on their social media page of him playing with his young son.

Taken from the BFI Archives, the caption reads: “Wishing all Dads, and those who may be missing their parents today, a relaxing Father’s Day.”

When will American Riviera Orchard be available to shop?

Just hours before the King and the royal family – including Kate Middleton – stepped out for The Tropping of The Colour in London this weekend, Meghan Markle soft launched two more products from her long-awaited lifestyle brand, American Riviera Orchard.

Weeks after the former royal gifted 50 jars of strawberry jam to influencers across the US, she has now sent close friends raspberry jam jars and dog biscuits, giving us a sneak peak of what’s to come.

Unfortunately, we don’t have any information at this stage for when the products will be available to shop. What we do know though is that a trademark application for American Riviera Orchard was filed on 2 February 2024, so we can expect it’ll be a number of weeks before we can shop Markle’s products.

‘Happy Father’s Day, Pa’ – William’s message to King marks break of tradition

The Prince of Wales has shared a photo of him playing football with the King to mark Father’s Day in a break from tradition.

The photo of William and Charles together in the gardens of Kensington Palace was taken on June 12 1984.

“Happy Father’s Day, Pa,” the social media post, personally signed by William, said.

The photo shows an almost two-year-old William in short dungarees and a stripey blue top and the King in a grey double-breasted suit kicking a small football.

Later that same year William would gain a younger brother, with the Duke of Sussex born in September.
