1. He has no perception of the damage he's done. I've been writing about the royals for decades and have never seen them so low in the water, mainly thanks to this depressing Harry-Meghan sideshow

- First time I've seen an on-duty princess shut her own car door...Meghan in Givenchy tonight
00:00 - Fleet Street gets it horribly wrong. The story this morning is not about #PrinceAndrew but about the public grief of a widow, and the loss of a towering figure who served the nation and the institution of monarchy
- And so we see a vision of the future - reassuring, calm, dignified and apt. We wish him well when his time comes
- What Harry seems not to realise is that he has lost the affection of the public. It would do the RF no good for one of their number to be booed as he went to work. This one's a complete non-starter
- I'm no lawyer but I've been up the sharp end of legal complaints in my time as a journalist, and on the evidence so far I'd say #Harry has about as much chance of success in this misbegotten case as a one-legged man in an arse-kicking competition
- In an unsettling world, it's encouraging to see we can still get some things right - these impeccable statues of Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip unveiled by #KingCharles at the Royal Albert Hall last night are a fine and dignified tribute to two lives well spent
- What remains, when the smoke clears, is the author's clear intention to name the two royals concerned. That can only have come with the approval of his Sussex sponsors
- Squandering those Netflix millions on lawyers who can't win his case, and for why? The Sussexes are unlikely to spend time in Britain any time soon, so why demand big police protection? thetimes.co.uk/article/prince…
- Remembering this morning Prince Philip. I once had the privilege of pouring him a gin and tonic: 'You've drowned it!" he snapped. He was like that. But, boy oh boy, how much we miss the old blighter
- As Camilla's first biographer, I can say with confidence she won't give a flying hoot what she wears on her head for the Coronation. No need for royal officials to stuggle with their conscience over this one, because she won't
- There you have it. The confirmation that Harry's been told he & Meghan haven't been invited to the Diamond Jubilee celebrationsPrince Harry says lack of security stops family visiting UK - statement in full mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news/p…
