William and Kate Showbiz and Celebrity Breaking News

Following the news that King Charles has chosen to give up his lease on his Welsh home Llwynywermod, royal expert Jennie Bond has called the move a "no brainer".The King bought Llwynywermod in 2007 via the Duchy of Cornwall and paid £1.2 million for the farmhouse near Llandovery in Carmarthenshire.The decision comes after His Majesty passed his Prince of Wales title down to Prince William and as he will be unable to spend as much time in the nation as he did do before his accession. It is understood that there are no plans for the Prince and Princess of Wales to keep a permanent base in the country as they will instead stay in local hotels and B&B's to support the community during their visits.

It was revealed last year that King Charles is planning the largest ever series of official tours in the UK, the Commonwealth and to other countries around the world to "extend a hand of friendship and support.” While it has been understood that the monarch will prioritise visits to the United States, Australia, New Zealand and a number of Commonwealth realms in the Caribbean, there are a number of countries that will also be high on the agenda such as India, Pakistan and Bangladesh.The King and Queen undertook their first visit to Germany before the Coronation, but are expected to make several more trips in the coming few years. While Their Majesties will carry out many of the visits themselves, they are ably supported by key senior royals, such as The Prince and Princess of Wales, who are thought to be instrumental in The King's plans for future foreign tours.

Following an incredibly busy and thrilling few weeks, Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis are enjoying their half term break.The Prince and Princess of Wales' three children all attend Lambrook School near their home in Windsor and will be packing in as much fun as possible before they head back to the classroom on Monday, June 5. But what will the young royals be getting up to in their time off? Judging by their previous school breaks and revelations by the couple themselves, it seems the family of five will have some exciting plans.

Eagle-eyed royal fans recently spied a black and white photograph of Prince Harry in the background of The Prince and Princess of Wales' video to mark the Coronation - and a royal expert suggested what this could mean for the brothers' relationship. Former BBC royal correspondent Jennie Bond exclusively told OK! that the inclusion of the image showcases the "deep affection" Prince William still has for his brother in spite of everything that has happened since Harry stepped back from his role in the royal family.

The Prince and Princess of Wales have become leading names in several key charitable areas, thanks to the creation of key foundations which have been developed and backed by years of research. Whether it is Prince William's Earthshot Prize or Catherine's Royal Foundation Centre for Early Childhood - including projects such as the Big 5 Survey and Shaping Us - the couple have chosen to have a smaller number of patronages and focus entirely on how they can make a difference in those areas.This is a different approach from other members of the Royal Family who are patrons to hundreds of charities across a wide range of different topics.

Very few of us need reminding of how the Prince and Princess of Wales' legendary love story started at the University of St Andrews in Scotland soon after the pair both enrolled in 2001. In the 12 years since the couple married, they have become the most popular members of the Royal Family who advocate for key causes such as mental health, homelessness and early childhood. The relatable way the pair behave in public continues to win them fans - and it appears that this normalcy extends into their life away from the cameras with their three children.

The Princess of Wales is constantly praised for the seamless way she has adapted to her senior royal role, whether it the relatable way she speaks to the public or the amazing amount of work she has put into her early years development work. While Catherine rightly deserves this commendation, former BBC royal correspondent Jennie Bond feels another key royal deserves huge credit for helping the Princess adapt.

Much has been made of King Charles' plans to downsize the number of royal homes currently in use, whether it is the Duke and Duchess of Sussex being evicted from Frogmore Cottage or the ongoing question of The Duke of York's residence at Royal Lodge. Following reports that Prince Andrew is continuing to resist his elder brother's attempts to force him out of the 30-room home, former BBC royal correspondent Jennie Bond has spoken to OK! about the plan and has said it is time for Prince Andrew to adjust to his reduced position in the royal fold. Jennie's comments come after ongoing reports that senior royal officials hope Royal Lodge will be vacated by Andrew so that it can become the home of The Prince and Princess of Wales, Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis.

The Prince and Princess of Wales' three children played incredibly important roles throughout Coronation weekend, including Prince George's position as a Page of Honour to his grandfather King Charles. But while the ancient ceremony went off without a hitch, with the excitement over, Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis have gone back to school. And while their starring roles on the day mean the Royal trio have a bigger public profile than ever, the careful oversight of their mother, Kate, means this is unlikely to affect their day to day lives.

Prince William and Kate could be handed the 30-room Royal Lodge on the Windsor Estate, which is currently occupied by Prince Andrew and his ex-wife Sarah Ferguson - and we want to know what you think. King Charles is reportedly trying to ‘downgrade’ the Duke of York to Frogmore Cottage instead, which Andrew is said to be resisting.
