Palace is 'irritated' as Harry and Meghan's Nottingham 'royal cosplay' puts two rival courts head-to-head

King Charles opened the Welsh parliament in Cardiff on the same day Harry and Meghan carried out three charity visits in Nottingham, setting up a direct clash between two rival royal operations. The Palace is reportedly irritated by the Sussexes' walkabout-style appearance, which critics have branded "royal cosplay." A friend of the couple has pushed back, insisting they "never agreed" to the Sandringham Summit terms and are "just living their lives." Their official statement on the visit also contained a repeated paragraph, with two sentences appearing twice.

Charles was moved to tears meeting Gareth Jones, a survivor of the 1966 Aberfan disaster, as he and Camilla opened the Senedd.

A friend of Harry's, comedian Archie Manners, told GB News the duke is "being given a bit more space by the press" and had "a really good day."
