About this listen

 Episode Description: "Project Thaw" exposed—alleged plot to bring Harry back involves educating Archie/Lilibet in UK schools. Deep Crown destroys the premise: "Does anyone seriously believe Harry would place an ocean between his children and their mother? He's constructed his entire post-royal identity around not repeating Diana's experience." Kate vs Camilla explodes—Queen "astounded" Kate entertaining Harry reconciliation, source claims "poisonous showdown at palace" where Camilla called Kate "naive and reckless." TIARA WARS: Kate wears Oriental Circlet with 2,600 diamonds/rubies at State Banquet, deliberately overshadowing Camilla. Source: "Camilla was hopping mad, said it was another blatant attempt to hog the limelight." Deep Crown: "Catherine isn't preparing to be Queen—she's already performing the role. That tiara was making the subtext text. Camilla faces uncomfortable reality that if Charles recedes, her relevance recedes with him.

Catherine represents everything Camilla never managed: youth, public adoration, unassailable position." Meghan DELETES Thomas Markle's phone number—no plans to visit dying father in Philippines. Swedish Princess Sofia confirmed introduced to Epstein 2005—declined Caribbean trip invitation. Andrew stripped of final military rank, demoted Vice Admiral to Commander. Spitting Image mocks Meghan's "woke marmalade"—Paddington puppet warns "she needs to watch her back." Andrew moving to Sandringham "shoebox," sources describe "clutter turning move into months-long room-by-room excavation." Kate/Pippa rift speculation—Pippa missed carol service, was "diving off yacht when Kate had surgery." Sarah Ferguson's alleged spending: $1.1M annually including $32.5K in ONE HOUR at Bloomingdale's.

Harry denies calling Archie "African child," accuses Tina Brown of "inventing words." New Epstein WhatsApp messages released: "$1000 per girl," "18-year-old from Russia." Kate pledges support to William for 2026 monarchy overhaul. Plus: Kate stepping back from Harry/William reconciliation, Archewell rebranding to "Philanthropies," and week palace factions crystallized.
