Today is the funeral of Mum, as she’s laid to rest with Dad. If you pray, or send positive thoughts etc, I’d appreciate that especially at 2pm (U.K. time) today. Thank you.

Just to say that, as some of you know, I was a carer for my mum since 2020, and she passed away very peacefully last night. It was as good an end as you could hope for, away from her struggles.

@sophielouisecc Free speech, as long as there are no white privilege lectures, woke nonsense or cancel culture? Am I missing the irony here? Surely if you believe in free speech you need to back people saying things that you object to?

Insiders say Prince Harry has close relationship with his grandmother the Queen and that the Duke of Sussex told the monarch of his plans to honour her when he named his child years ago.
