A Right Royal Podcast

In the new episode, Emily, Emmy and Andrea are chatting all about the Princess of Wales’ annual carol service at Westminster Abbey, including Prince Louis' adorable secret from his big sister, Princess Kate's candid comments on her tough year, and surprise absences from some members of the royal family. Meanwhile, the Prince of Wales has gotten into the Christmas spirit with the Passage charity, where he served Christmas lunch to those experiencing homelessness. At the very last minute, we also saw Prince William brave Storm Darragh on a trip to Paris to reopen the Notre Dame cathedral, where he met with Jill Biden, Donald Trump, and a host of world leaders. We'll discuss his role as an impressive statesman, plus THAT handshake with President-Elect Trump. And don't forget the state banquet held in honour of the Emir of Qatar and his wife, where we spotted the Beckhams and Princess Diana's stepbrother join the event. As for Christmas - there is plenty more to discuss! Tom Parker Bowles will be celebrating his first Christmas at Sandringham, while we are just days away from the annual Christmas family lunch at Windsor. The King will also have a busy time recording his Christmas speech, the Wales' are set to release their annual Christmas card - and so much more.

This week our TV Editor Emmy Griffiths is elbowing her co-host Andrea Caamano and HELLO!'s Royal Editor Emily Nash out of the way to talk all about the BBC's new Tudor drama, Wolf Hall: The Mirror and the Light.  The series takes place in the court of King Henry VIII, so the trio take a trip back into the past while discussing what life was like in the King's court and how Christmas was celebrated - as well as some excellent fact vs fiction truths from this week's special guest, Historic Royal Palace's head of research, Professor Anthony Musson.  Andrea and Emily have also been busy looking into days of royals' past, and they took a trip to Windsor Castle to look at 2024's magnificent decorations, including a 100-year-old dollhouse belonging to Queen Mary. During their visit, they also spoke to Royal Collection Trust curator, Kathryn Jones, who gave the inside scoop on the display.  However, it's not all history in the new episode, as we also catch up on the latest royal news, including Queen Camilla's beautiful tiara at the diplomatic reception, Prince William's further efforts to end homelessness, the latest on Princess Kate's carol service - and who can forget a recent royal robbery at Windsor Castle...  Finally, if you also want to join thousands of royal fans just like you, then subscribe to our substack for EXCLUSIVE content: https://royalclub.hellomagazine.com/ Learn more about your ad choices.

In the episode, we are joined by our colleague, Online Royal Correspondent Danielle Stacey - who recently joined Prince William in his capers in Cape Town. Danielle opened up about her incredible time covering Earthshot and hearing the Prince of Wales speak up close and personal.  We also discuss Queen Camilla's big TV moment with her new documentary, which delves into the issue of domestic violence and King Charles' inspiring birthday plans (prompting a fierce debate about whether ignoring lunch is an acceptable practice or not)! We also chatted about Princess Kate's wonderful appearance at the Festival of Remembrance, where she was supported by her good friend and fellow royal, Sophie, the Duchess of Edinburgh.  The gang were also delighted to be joined by royal author Robert Hardman, who recently updated his fantastic biography of King Charles III with plenty of new details and information, who discussed the royal family's updated funeral plans, as well as Prince Andrew's finances after finding the funds to remain at the Royal Lodge residence.  Robert also opened up about the King's relationship with his youngest son Prince Harry, and whether the pair are any closer to reconciling following their fallout. Oh, and who can forget Robert's knowledge about the late Queen's diaries, and when he expects they'll be used for biographers in the future.

The new show looks at the Prince's charity Homewards, which has the goal of ending homelessness once and for all - and we sat down with Dr Sabrina Cohen-Hatton, an ambassador of Homewards, to discuss. In the deeply emotional conversation with A Right Royal Podcast's hosts, Andrea Caamano and Emmy Griffiths, HELLO!'s Royal Editor Emily Nash and Sabrina, who is a Fire Chief, neuroscientist and author, discuss the Prince's ambitions to end homelessness, the criticisms made against him for this venture, and what good the life-changing charity is already doing for those in need.  We also spoke about Sabrina's own experiences with homelessness as a teenager, and the difficulties many face with turning their lives around after finding themselves in such a difficult situation - and what to do to help.  Of course, it's not A Right Royal Pod without a chat with Emily about all of the latest royal news too, and we chatted about HELLO! on tour in Australia with King Charles and Queen Camilla, with a special mention to our colleague Tracey, who was on the ground giving us all of the latest news from the visit: from the moment the King was heckled, to his warm welcome at Sydney Opera House.  Not to mention, we also check in on the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, who are reportedly looking into buying a second home in Portugal - where they travelled to last year to spend time with Prince Harry's cousin Princess Eugenie, and her husband Jack Brooksbank.
