The Crown Fans Can Stay at This Filming Location—Complete With Corgis and a Royal Butler


If you’ve ever dreamed of living like a member of the British royal family, now’s your chance.

Fans of both the real-life royals and the fictionalized ones on The Crown can now rent the massive home known as The Earl of Fitzroy—exterior shots of the residence were featured in the second season of the Netflix show. But, those who rent it won’t just be gaining access to the home; they’ll also gain access to an entire royal lifestyle too. But, fair warning, that lifestyle will cost you.

“We’ve been getting a bit overexcited about the release of The Crown’s third season,” Plum Guide, the rental company in charge of the listing, wrote in a blog post. “So, to celebrate we’ve created the ultimate experience of frivolity and excess worth over £50,000 in one of London’s most splendid homes.”

That “frivolity” includes access to a personal butler, a delicious banquet dinner, as well as a royal-worthy horse and carriage ride through Fitzrovia Square. Those who also shell out almost $65,000 for the luxury accommodation will also have afternoon tea surrounded by several regal corgis. And they won’t have to worry about picking up the wrong spoon as guests will also receive training (just like Meghan Markle reportedly did) from one of the world’s leading etiquette instructors, William Hanson. Guests will also reportedly be greeted with a box full of goodies from all the Queen’s favorite brands.

But if you want in on this action you better act fast since The Royal Experience at Earl of Fitzroy will only available in December. (Guests also must commit to a seven-night stay.) Hopefully, the house comes with its own Netflix account so guests can stream season three of The Crown while getting waited on hand and foot too.

A Christmas Prince: The Royal Baby Trailer: Watch and See All the Meghan and Harry Vibes


The trailer for A Christmas Prince: The Royal Baby, the third movie in Netflix’s Christmas Prince franchise, is here, and it’s serving major Meghan Markle, Prince Harry, and baby Archie vibes. So, in other words, the internet is going to completely freak out over it.

If you’re unfamiliar with the Christmas Prince series, let me give you some context: In 2017 Netflix released the first film, which centered on Amber (Rose McIver), a New York City journalist who travels to the fictional country of Aldovia to learn more about its party-boy prince, Richard (Ben Lamb). The two fall for each other and get married in the second film, A Christmas Prince: The Royal Wedding, officially making them king and queen of Aldovia.

And now comes baby. In this new film, Queen Amber is pregnant with the heir to the Aldovian throne, but she’s determined to make his or her life as normal as possible. She wants her child to grow up without feeling the burden or responsibility of being a royal—much like what Meghan Markle and Prince Harry reportedly want for Archie.

And the drama doesn’t end there. A sacred document that will grant a truce between Aldovia and another fictional country, Panglia, goes missing, and if it’s not retrieved by midnight Christmas Eve, a “curse” is placed on Amber’s baby. Didn’t see that coming, did you?

Watch the trailer for yourself, below, and prepare to be charmed.

When asked about the popularity of the Christmas Prince franchise, McIver told Glamour last year, “I think right now in the world there’s plenty of access to terrible news. It’s not just that bad things are happening; it’s the fact they’re reported on in the way in which they are. I think sometimes we feel pretty depleted by the state of things as we see them, and this is a chance to escape and believe in a fairy tale again and be children. It’s great. I’m glad it’s found an audience.”

A Christmas Prince: The Royal Baby starts streaming on Netflix on December 5.

Royal Fashion: The Best Style Moments From Royals of All Time


The royal family has moved past frills and lace to become the pinnacle of grace and style. Even though there are certain rules and traditions they have to adhere to as part of the U.K. monarchy, women like Princess Diana, Kate Middleton, and Meghan Markle have still have found ways to pull off stunning looks with elegance and sophistication. They’ve morphed into fashion icons, which makes following their events and engagements—and revisiting past moments—a thrill for anyone who’s a fan of royal glamour.

All of the royal wedding dresses have a special place in our hearts, and it doesn’t take much to get any royal enthusiast gasping over Diana’s slinky off-the-shoulder “Revenge Dress” from 1994. The blue chiffon number that Diana showed off at Cannes in1987, the texture white masterpiece Kate wore in 2019, and the gorgeous Oscar de la Renta design Markle sparkled in last year have all been gowns that have epitomized what princesses should wear. We’ve compiled those moments, and many others, here for the definitive list of the best royal fashion

Every Outfit Kate Middleton Wore on Her Royal Tour of Pakistan With Prince William


Not long after Meghan Markle wrapped up a 10-day tour in South Africa, Kate Middleton is off on an official trip of her own, traveling to Pakistan for five days with Prince William. Sadly, we won’t get to see the couple’s three children—Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis—on this trip, but we will get to see a lot of fashion.

Expect to see the Duchess of Cambridge in clothes by local designers (something that both she and Markle often incorporate into their wardrobes during official travel), as well as traditional dress reimagined by some of her go-to designers. (So far she has chosen a colorful shalwar kameez—a style that involves a tunic-like top over trousers frequently worn in Pakistan—by Catherine Walker.) And don’t be surprised by any callbacks to Princess Diana: Within a day of arriving, she already drew comparisons to her late mother-in-law, who visited the country in 1997, not long before she died.

Ahead, we’re keeping track of every single outfit Middleton has worn during her royal tour of Pakistan.

Kate Middleton and Prince William's Royal Tour of Pakistan—See All the Best Moments


Another week, another royal tour.

On the heels of Meghan Markle and Prince Harry‘s trip to southern Africa, Kate Middleton and Prince William traveled from London to Islamabad yesterday, October 14, to begin their five-day tour of Pakistan. “This is the most complex tour undertaken by [the duke and duchess] to date, given the logistical and security considerations,” a statement released by Kensington Palace ahead of the tour said. “Pakistan hosts one of Britain’s largest overseas networks, with the British High Commission in Islamabad being one of the United Kingdom’s largest diplomatic missions in the world.”

While the couple’s three children are not with them on this trip, Hello! reports that the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge dropped Prince George and Princess Charlotte at school before their flight to Pakistan.

Here are all the best moments from the royal tour.

The Cambridges had a red carpet arrival in Pakistan, complete with flowers and gifts from local children. Middleton wore a turquoise ombré take on the shalwar kameez, the traditional dress of the country that includes a tunic top over trousers.

Meghan Markle Says the Royal Tour Schedule Is Based on Archie's Feeding Times


Meghan Markle and Prince Harry may have decided to bring five-month-old Archie to only one official engagement during their royal tour in southern Africa, but the little royal has apparently been at the center of all the planning.

During an interview during her events yesterday, the Duchess of Sussex was asked about her first work trip as a family of three. “We’re doing well,” she said, which you can see in the video below. “I think the schedule—they have been very kind to me, because everything is based around Archie’s feed times. So it’s a full plate, but we’re making it work. It’s worth it.”

She also revealed that she’s really missed her husband while he’s been on a solo leg of the tour. “It’s my first time being in [South Africa] … and Harry has continued on in a couple [of] other countries,” Markle said. “We are reuniting today, which I can’t wait for, I miss him so much!”

The duchess also spoke about the importance of seeing the work that so many are doing around one of her most important causes: the empowerment of women and girls.

“It’s been very important to me for a long time to focus on women’s and girls’ rights and especially their empowerment,” she said. “So to see this from afar and then to see the work that is being done on the ground, I think what’s really key is to focus on the work that needs to be done, but also how much incredible work is being done and to be able to be hear and support those people who are really actively working to champion the rights of women and girls.”

The Sussex family wraps up their tour later today and will fly back to London tonight. Next on the schedule: They’re currently taking on a British publication for what the royal family says was the illegal use of a letter Markle sent to her father after the royal wedding.
