New Book Details How Kate Middleton And Prince William Powered Through Difficulties

A new book explores how Kate became a pillar of support for her husband during a turbulent period.
In “William and Catherine: The Monarchy’s New Era — The Inside Story,” set for release on March 10, author Russell Myers traces the journey of Prince William and Kate, Princess of Wales, from their university days in Scotland to their present roles at the heart of the royal family.
The book delves into the strain placed on their marriage following Prince Harry’s decision to step back from royal duties in 2020, a move that reshaped family dynamics and intensified public scrutiny.

According to Myers, the years that followed only compounded the pressure. The passing of Queen Elizabeth II in 2022 marked a profound turning point for the monarchy, while the ongoing divide with Harry and Meghan Markle continued to cast a shadow over family relations.

How The Prince And Princess Of Wales Stay Strong Through Royal Challenges

Despite the turbulence, Myers suggests that William and Kate’s partnership has remained grounded in open communication and mutual support.
Speaking to People Magazine, he describes them as “great communicators,” adding that they “talk about their emotions, they support one another, and that resilience — often unseen — is central to who they are.”
Tensions escalated after Harry and Meghan publicly discussed their grievances during their 2021 television interview and later with Harry’s 2023 memoir, “Spare,” which contained pointed reflections on his relationship with his brother and life within the institution.

Sources cited in the book describe William as deeply hurt and angered by the revelations. At one stage, he reportedly felt so betrayed that he considered cutting off communication entirely.
Close aides observed that the experience left him disappointed but also resolute, determined to concentrate on his immediate family and his responsibilities rather than revisiting conflict.

Kate Middleton: The Steadying Force Behind The Royal Family

In the upcoming book, Kate is portrayed as a calming influence. One source notes that she approached the situation involving Harry with patience, often reminding her husband whenever he got “riled up” that difficult moments eventually pass.
When emotions ran high, she reportedly redirected the focus back to their priorities: their home life and their shared mission within the monarchy.
Nearly 15 years after their wedding at Westminster Abbey, the couple’s relationship is described as defined by composure and endurance.
As parents to Prince George of Wales, Princess Charlotte of Wales, and Prince Louis of Wales, the royal couple is said to “believe that having a strong, stable environment at home gives them the best chance of succeeding in what can be an incredibly challenging institution.”
The Princess Of Wales Had ‘Less Interest’ In Convincing Prince Harry To Not Ditch His Royal Role

Myers’ book also suggests that Kate “had less interest than her husband in trying to persuade Harry to stay in his current role.”
The author writes that she had long suspected his exit was “inevitable,” viewing it not as a sudden rupture but as a development that seemed destined to unfold over time.
But, unlike Kate, William was described as being “intensely saddened at his brother’s decision to quit.”
The brothers had already drifted apart over time; however, the Duke of Sussex’s decision to ditch his senior royal position and move abroad was the nail in the coffin for his relationship with William.

According to Myers, “fond memories of their childhood, from helping each other through the tragedy of their mother’s death, to growing up in the public eye, were now tarnished by the division at the heart of the family.”
Kate Middleton’s New Era: Embracing The Princess Of Wales Title After Queen Elizabeth II’s Passing

The book explores Kate’s evolution into one of the most symbolically powerful roles within the royal family.
After Queen Elizabeth II died in 2022, William inherited the title Prince of Wales, and Kate became Princess of Wales.
Myers reflected on how the monarchy reshaped itself following the late Queen’s passing. King Charles III’s accession marked the beginning of a new chapter, with William stepping forward as heir to the throne and Kate assuming a role layered with modern royal history.
At the time, the King publicly expressed confidence in the couple’s future roles, stating that William and Catherine would continue to guide and inspire the nation in meaningful ways.
However, Myers reports that behind palace doors, the transition carried personal weight for Kate.

According to the book, “Catherine had a full appreciation of the history associated with the role, she was determined to find her own path.”
The biography claims that she privately shared her hesitations with both William and the King. The title, long associated with Princess Diana, remains deeply symbolic for many in Britain and beyond.

Teddi Mellencamp Reacts to Dorit Kemsley’s Rumored Debt
Teddi Mellencamp and Dolores Catania are weighing in on speculation surrounding Dorit Kemsley’s finances following her divorce from PK Kemsley.
Speaking on the Friday, March 13, episode of “Two Ts in a Pod With Teddi Mellencamp and Tamra Judge,” the Real Housewives stars shared their opinion as they reacted to rumors that Dorit’s home could potentially be foreclosed over spiraling debt.
“It says, ‘Dorit Kemsley Faces Foreclosure of $6.5 Million Mansion Over $842K Debt Mountain After Fans Call Out Her Shopping Addiction.’ This is on Radar,” Mellencamp, 44, said.
While Mellencamp did not elaborate on whether the report was true, she said Dorit had a right to be “concerned” if this issue was looming over her head.
For her part, Catania, 55, warned that following a divorce, issues can come back to haunt women who don’t keep across their finances during the marriage.
“She’s been very clear: ‘I don’t know my finances, I don’t know my bills. He handled it all.’ And you’re really taking a really big risk when you don’t know your finances in a marriage,” Catania said.

Catania went on to ponder how Dorit was spending her money in the wake of her split from PK.
“So she’s been on [Real Housewives] long enough. You know what I thought about when I saw this? She’s not a dumb girl. She speaks several languages,” Catania said.
Emphasizing that she was on Dorit’s “side” on the issue, Catania added, “But I thought to myself, what have you been doing with your money all this time? Have you been spending it?”
Dorit and PK — who share son Jagger, 11, and daughter Phoenix, 9 — revealed that they were going their separate ways in May 2024.
“We as a couple have been subject to a lot of speculation about our marriage. We have had our struggles over the last few years and continue to work through them as two people who love each other and share two amazing children together,” they said in a joint statement at the time.
“To safeguard our deep friendship and maintain a harmonious environment for our children, we have made the mutual and difficult decision to take some time apart and reevaluate our relationship while we prioritize our children,” the exes continued. “We appreciate your love and support while we continue to do the work necessary throughout this journey. With love, Dorit and PK.”
Dorit filed for divorce from PK in April 2025, nearly one year after they announced their separation, per court documents obtained by Us Weekly.

Elle Fanning Reveals Why She Created an OnlyFans Account
Elle Fanning found herself creating an OnlyFans account for a very specific reason.
In an interview with People published on Friday, March 13, Fanning, 27, revealed she took to the NSFW website to prepare for her latest role on AppleTV’s Margo’s Got Money Troubles.
“There were a lot of things [I did to prepare],” Fanning explained to the outlet. “Obviously, I am an Instagram user and a TikTok user. I got to look at that.”
She continued, “Also, we had to dive into OnlyFans a little bit. We did create an account for the writer’s room, and for me, so I could check out how the website is.”
Margo’s Got Money Troubles is a new TV series based on Rufi Thorpe’s bestselling 2024 novel of the same name.
The project follows Margo (Fanning) as she faces financial difficulties after dropping out of college to raise a new baby. While trying to make her writing dreams come true, Margo must lean on her mom and former Hooter’s waitress Shaynne Millet (Michelle Pfeiffer) and her father Jinx Millet (Nick Offerman) for support.
While celebrating the show’s premiere at the SXSW Film & TV Festival in Texas on Thursday, March 12, showrunner Eva Anderson provided some more context as to how OnlyFans was useful for the project.
“There was a lot of looking at OnlyFans with the writers, but we all gave consent to each other before we did it,” she explained via People. “We were very responsible and we just tried to get as much information as we could before we started.”
Fanning isn’t the only Hollywood actress who has used OnlyFans for some inspiration.
In August 2020, Bella Thorne said she joined the platform for research on a movie she was making with Sean Baker.
“It’s a feature we are researching as I’m living it currently,” Thorne, 28, explained to the Los Angeles Times. “What are the ins and outs? What does a platform like this do to its users? What’s the connective material between your life and your life inside the world of OnlyFans? … How can it change your life for the worse and the better? How far are you willing to go, and how far do you WANT to go? You can be me, or this talented girl from Montana, and OnlyFans could change your life — if you want it to, of course.”
Margo’s Got Money Troubles premieres on AppleTV Wednesday, April 15.

Kristy Sarah Details ‘Internal Bra’ Boob Job After Divorce
Kristy Scott got candid about making a personal change following her divorce filing, sharing that she recently underwent a breast augmentation.
The influencer, 30, confirmed speculation that she got a boob job after her glamorous appearance at the 2026 Grammy Awards, for which she wowed in a custom rich brown colored gown by Nicole + Felicia featuring a plunging neckline.
“OK, the majority of my audience is women,” the content creator — who goes by Kristy Sarah online — shared in a TikTok clip on Thursday, March 12. “So if you just happen to be a man, please keep scrolling.”
“After y’all saw my GlamBOT video, I got a lot of questions about the girls,” Kristy said about her look at the star-studded event that was held on February 1. “Yes, I did just get them done.”
The social media star revealed that she also opted for a supplementary aesthetic option, known as an “internal bra” while going under the knife.
According to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, it’s a technique rather than a procedure.
“The internal bra refers to using some form of implantable scaffolding to support your own breast tissue at the same time as another procedure, such as a breast lift, augmentation or reduction,” one expert explained in an article published in April 2025.

The surgeon further clarified, “This implantable scaffolding is generally an absorbable material that your own tissue uses during the course of healing to strengthen the scar tissue and add support with the intention of giving a longer-term result.”
Kristy shared that it’s been two months since her surgery, revealing she has another four months to go until she sees the results when they settle.
It’s certainly been a transformative era for Kristy, who has also alluded to keeping the home that she and estranged husband Desmond Scott built from scratch post-split. “Same address,” she captioned an Instagram post on January 14.
She filed divorce paperwork to end her marriage on December 30, 2025, per documents obtained by Us Weekly. She cited infidelity as the reason for their split. (The exes share two kids together, 7-year-old son Vance and 6-year-old son Westin.)
Desmond, 32, apologized to “Kristy, our family, and everyone who has been impacted by the public attention surrounding this situation” while breaking his silence via Instagram Stories in January.
“Kristy and I faced challenges and made sincere efforts to work through them,” he explained. Desmond acknowledged that he made “choices that I am not proud of” while they tried to work through their separation as a couple. “I took responsibility for those actions,” he added. “I shared this with her directly and personally, and ultimately we decided to divorce.”

Sebastian Bach Addresses Christina Applegate, Brad Pitt Drama
Sebastian Bach is breaking his silence after Christina Applegate revealed she ditched Brad Pitt for the rocker at 1989 VMAs.
“[I] was very surprised when that all hit,” Bach, 57, said of Applegate’s confession in an interview with Billboard published on Friday, March 13. “I was a single guy on tour, in a band, and I met a lot of girls and I apologize if I hurt her … If I hurt anybody.”
Bach added that during that time of his life, he was just beginning his journey as a bona fide rockstar.
“When you’re young you get thrown into the whirlwind of rock ‘n’ roll, meeting a lot of people and you better hold on tight,” he continued. “It’s like being on a roller coaster … It was a long time ago. If I hurt anybody, I apologize for it.”
Applegate, 54, and Bach’s connection made headlines following the release of her memoir, You With the Sad Eyes, earlier this month. In the book, the Married With Children actress revealed she was once entangled in a love triangle with Pitt and Bach. While Applegate brought Pitt, who hadn’t made a name for himself in Hollywood at the time, as her date to the VMAs, where she was presenting, she quickly became entranced by Bach, who was there with his band Skid Row.
“I had spent all night staring at Bach, who was then a long-haired hunk fronting the band Skid Row,” she wrote. “I hate to put it like this, but Brad back then was still making his way as an actor, and he wasn’t yet THE Brad Pitt, the man of so many people’s dreams.”
While Applegate came with Pitt, she ended up leaving the show with Bach.
“I felt so powerful and sure of myself for once that when the awards show was over, I left with Sebastian Bach,” she continued. “Brad was left to sullenly drive my mom and [friend] Lori [Allison] home. Apparently, at a gas station on the way, Brad almost got into a fight with a bunch of gang members, and, not surprisingly, was subsequently very mad at me.”
Applegate added that she and Pitt “didn’t talk for many years” after the incident, and she never really got to have a romance with Bach.
“Eventually, we agreed that I’d been a kid,” she wrote of Pitt, noting that “he’d deserved much better” and “it was time to forgive the child who dumped him for the lead singer of Skid Row.”

Madison Pettis Claims Ex Michael Porter Jr. Was a ‘Psychopath’
Madison Pettis shaded her ex-boyfriend, Michael Porter Jr., while discussing their breakup.
Pettis, 27, appeared on an episode of the “In Your Dreams With Owen Thiele” podcast earlier this month. During her chat with Thiele, Pettis shared that she is a big fan of basketball which led him to ask if she would consider dating an NBA player.
“Um, yeah,” she said before explaining her history with Porter Jr. “I mean, my ex is now in the NBA. When we dated, he was in high school and college.”
Pettis also gave some insight into the alleged reason for their split.
“I broke up with him before he was in the league because he was a psychopath,” she claimed. “I do think a lot of athletes are not great partners, but I wouldn’t, like, rule it out because I do love what they do. I would have respect for them and love to talk to them about their passion.”
Us Weekly has reached out to Porter Jr. for comment.
Pettis and Porter Jr., 27, dated from 2016 to 2017. Pettis is best known for getting her start as a child actress on Disney Channel. She most recently appeared in the rom-coms He’s All That and The Wrong Paris.
One year after their split, Porter Jr. was drafted by the Denver Nuggets. The forward won his first championship with the Nuggets in 2023. Two years later, Porter Jr. was traded to the Brooklyn Nets.
Porter Jr. has made headlines in recent years for his controversial dating comments. Last year, Porter Jr. shared that he would have the women he dated listen to polarizing podcaster Andrew Tate to see their reaction to his viewpoints. (Tate is best known for promoting masculinity and slamming feminism.)
“So, I’m not saying I’m a misogynist or anything, but I’ll throw on some Andrew Tate and see how they react,” Porter Jr. said during a 2025 episode of the “One Night with Steiny” podcast. “I’ll bring up, like, conversations and play devil’s advocate just to see how this girl, like, thinks about certain things.”
Porter Jr. also shared that he prefers to date women who have not been with another NBA star.
“I feel like if you dated like publicly, like a player, it would be hard just because of … it would be tough dating someone’s old girl and they just always have that over you,” he said on a September 2025 episode of his “Curious Mike” podcast. “It could be like an ego thing or like I don’t know … I’m open to change, I’m not stuck in my ways.”

Who Killed Calvin on Virgin River Before Charmaine’s Exit?
After waiting for over a year, viewers finally found out who died in the newest season of Virgin River.
The season 6 finale, which aired in December 2024, showed Jack (Martin Henderson) arriving at Charmaine’s (Lauren Hammersley) home, only to find a startling scene.
When the hit Netflix series returned for season 7 on Thursday, March 12, it was confirmed that Charmaine was kidnapped while Calvin (Josh Blacker) had been killed.
Charmaine was the main suspect since she was nowhere to be found. Brie (Zibby Allen), however, figured out that the mom of two was taken hostage and ultimately connected it back to Charmaine’s boss Grant (Alessandro Juliani).
Grant claimed he killed Calvin to protect Charmaine. He was ultimately arrested for murdering Calvin and abducting Charmaine.
“I knew somebody was dead, but I wasn’t sure who exactly it was until I knew what it would lead to,” showrunner Patrick Sean Smith told TV Line on Thursday. “I saw the potential in what the different [options] were, but I wanted to explore all the different choices to see which played best in the totality of the season.”

Smith called Calvin’s death a “convenient” way to end Calvin’s story. He noted that Calvin has “already come back from the dead and wants his children and has murdered people. [The actor was recast in season 6] as well, so it just felt like an opportunity to clean that out.”
Season 7 of Virgin River went through several cast changes. News broke on Thursday that Marco Grazzini won’t be returning as a series regular.
“Character departures are very common in this business — especially on a long-running and beloved series like Virgin River,” Grazzini, 45, who has been on the show since season 2, told Entertainment Weekly. “It’s been a wonderful opportunity to play Mike for six seasons.”
Grazzini said he has “nothing but love for the cast, crew and especially the phenomenal fans who make the show so special,” adding, “I’m excited for this new chapter in my career.”
In addition to Grazzini, Lauren Hammersley, who has been playing Charmaine since the show premiered on Netflix in 2019, is also not expected to come back. With the exception of Grazzini, the rest of Virgin River‘s season 7 series regulars are expected to return in season 8.
This isn’t the first time the show has gone through some changes behind the scenes. Grayson Gurnsey left as Ricky after season 4, and Mark Ghanimé, who played Cameron, had a surprising exit once season 6 was released.
Virgin River is currently streaming on Netflix.
