Meghan and Kate have not spoken in four years, and a near-miss in London has fuelled reports of tension. Meghan had lunch with activist Malala Yousafzai at Claridge's hotel while Kate was travelling on the London Underground nearby, according to Woman's Day. A royal insider says the lunch irked Kate, who has dined at Claridge's with Prince William. Another source claims Meghan sees Kate's Tube ride with Princess Charlotte as a calculated move linked to security concerns for Meghan's children. Other reports say Kate is furious over Harry and Meghan's walkabout in Nottingham.
Former NRL stars Matty and Andrew Johns, who led the Newcastle Knights to a 1997 premiership, faced a prolonged rift due to professional and personal tensions. Matty admitted to resenting his younger brother's rapid success, which overshadowed his own achievements. Their feud escalated in 2023 after Matty's public praise for Queensland's coach during a radio show, leading to a heated exchange. The brothers remained estranged for 16 months until their son Jack intervened, facilitating a reconciliation. This marks the second time Jack has helped mend the family's strained relationship.
Prince Harry has said he wants to heal his rift with his father, King Charles, and his brother, Prince William, in an interview with GQ's One More Question podcast. He said reconciliation was the most important thing and that some people did not want the situation to work out. A Sussex spokesman later said the remark was not aimed at William or any family member. The comments came as King Charles, Queen Camilla, William and Kate attended a State Banquet for the Sultan of Oman, from which Harry and Meghan were absent.

Singer Kelly Clarkson has accused a Brooklyn toy store, Art of Play, of treating her poorly during a visit. She said staff judged her while she asked about a mechanical bird called Molly, which carries a price tag of $US15,000. The store says Molly was never for sale and that its staff explained the price referred to a similar custom bird. Surveillance footage shared by a podcast shows a short visit, and the store's owner says the online backlash has left staff feeling unsafe. Clarkson has not publicly responded since October 11.
