James Hewitt

What Princess Diana Did With David Bowie That Made the Palace Blush
Image
British royal family news reveals that the late Princess Diana enjoyed a busy social life before, during, and after her marriage to King Charles.

She was alluring, young, and beautiful and counted numerous celebs such as John Travolta, Elton John, and Freddie Mercury among her friends.

Her extracurricular activities were not a secret, but there was one photo of Diana with David Bowie that the palace tried to squash. Keep reading to discover why this one particular photo was deemed inappropriate!

Diana Enjoyed The Royal Life

Photographer Denis O’Regan told The Telegraph that he got a classic pic of Diana and Bowie after the singer’s Glass Spider concert at Wembley Stadium in 1987. O’Regan remembers that Diana asked him if Bowie would pose with her: “I thought it was so funny.”

O’Regan went on to say that Kensington Palace tried to squash the pic: “the next day, my...

Prince Charles is Not Prince Harry’s Real Father: 1 Myth About Princess Diana’s Love Life is Still Pretty Famous
Image
The British Royal Family attracts considerable media and public attention. This excessive attention, thanks to their position, has given leeway to conspiracy theorists to craft a bunch of ill-founded theories that continue to dominate public discourse even today. Given that the late Princess Diana is one of the most famous royals even today, her life, naturally, has been a web of theories and myths that fans continue to believe in.

Diana, Princess of Wales / Credits: BBC / YouTube

One such myth is that Prince Charles, aka the now King of England, is not Prince Harry’s father, but it is actually James Hewitt, Diana’s lover and riding instructor, who is the real father.

Why Princess Diana’s 1995 BBC Interview With Martin Bashir Created A Huge Scandal
Image
Princess Diana’s November 1995 Kensington Palace. The bombshell interview shocked the world as Diana spoke about the most intimate details of her life.

Diana Was Candid About Her Experiences With The Royal Family

The Princess of Wales made history by confirming that Prince Charles was having a tryst with Camilla Parker Bowles. “There were three of us in the marriage, so it was a bit crowded,” she admitted. It was the final nail in the coffin of Diana and Charles’s messy marriage.

In the interview, Diana was candid about her experiences with the royal family and the lack of support she received. She talked about her postpartum depression and how she tried to harm herself.

She revealed her struggles with bulimia. In secret tapes recorded for Andrew Morton, which became the book, “Diana: Her True Story,” she spoke of when her eating disorder started. Apparently, Prince Charles told her...

Every Actor Who Has Played Princess Diana, Ranked
Image
Not all adaptations of Princess Diana's life and portrayal are on the same level, with some lacking truthful moments and depth. Kristen Stewart's portrayal of Diana in the film "Spencer" focused on her struggles with mental health and eating disorders, and while divisive, Stewart's performance was strong. Emma Corrin and Elizabeth Debicki delivered standout performances as Diana in "The Crown," capturing her younger years and maturing character, respectively.

Princess Diana was an internationally beloved figure, and her story has been told many times by different actors in movies, musicals, and TV shows like The Crown. The Princess came under intense public scrutiny while she was alive, and after her passing in 1997, many filmmakers took up the challenge of portraying her life with dignity and care. While this may be the case, not all adaptations of her experiences or portrayals of her as a person are on the same level.

How Did ‘The Crown’ Handle Princess Diana’s Death? Poorly!
Image
It’s safe to say viewers did not see ghosts coming.

It was an open question how “The Crown” was going to depict Diana’s death, perhaps the most infamous moment in modern British history. The answer? It went with straightforward melodrama, with just a hint of energies from the beyond.

Season 6 of the Netflix drama begins, literally, with the crash as a random man watches a car careen into the Paris tunnel while walking his dog. The show then flashes back eight weeks earlier, and it feels like we are on a slow march to doom until we get to Diana’s (Elizabeth Debicki) death at the end of Episode 3.

“The Crown” shows final goodbye calls between Diana and the boys, and leans heavily into the idea that Dodi and Diana were near engagement, with Dodi proposing in a Paris hotel room with a ginormous ring, and Diana turning...

Claire Foy and Olivia Colman Back to Portray Younger Queen Elizabeth for The Crown’s Final Season
Image
Shows come and go, but very few have caused quite the stir as Netflix’s The Crown. This drama masterpiece is now gearing up for its final salute. The series, having spent five seasons basking under the spotlight, has both been honored lavishly and debated heavily.

The upcoming final season of The Crown is pulling out all the stops, with its goal to pay tribute to the Queen, the late Elizabeth II. The show is making a bold move one last time, trying to bring together three actresses who have played as the Queen at different stages of her life as reported by UK's Sun Newspaper.

Remember Claire Foy, who brought the young and fresh-faced Elizabeth to life in the early seasons? Or Olivia Colman, who expertly handled the Queen's middle years? Both of them will return to the series’ final season to share the screen with Imelda Staunton,...

“I trusted Chelsy with the most private of information,” he said in the testimony, according to The New York Times.

He went on to claim that “the prying eyes of the tabloids,” strained their relationship and was “the main factor” in their eventual breakup.

“We could also never understand how private elements of our life together were finding their way into the tabloids, and so our circle of friends became smaller and smaller,” Harry added. “I remember finding it very hard to trust anyone, which led to bouts of depression and paranoia.

Prince Harry Blasts ‘Hurtful, Mean And Cruel’ Rumours Suggesting James Hewitt Is His Father, Not King Charles
Image
Prince Harry has hit out at rumours suggesting King Charles is not his father.

It’s been reported in the tabloids for years that Princess Diana’s former lover, James Hewitt, was Harry’s dad.

However, as he made an appearance at London’s High Court on Tuesday amid his ongoing phone hacking lawsuit against the publisher of the Daily Mirror, he blasted the rumours in his accompanying witness statement.

Referencing a 2002 article from The People with the headline “Plot to rob the DNA of Harry” — talking about an alleged plan to steal a sample of Harry’s DNA to check his who his dad was — Harry said of the rumours: “They were hurtful, mean and cruel. I was always left questioning the motives behind the stories,” according to the Evening Standard.

The Duke added, “Were the newspapers keen to put doubt into the minds of the public so I...

London’s High Court saw Prince Harry take the stand on Tuesday, June 6 to testify against The Mirror, The Sunday Mirror and The Sunday People, three arms of the British tabloid press the royal is currently suing. During his testimony, the Duke of Sussex maintained his stance against the three papers, claiming: “Some editors and journalists do have blood on their hands.”

Prince Harry has accused the Mirror newspaper group of hacking his cellphone more than a decade ago, leading to targeted tabloid press against himself and later against his wife Meghan Markle.

Prince Harry & Meghan Markle Receive King Charles III’s Coronation Invitation

The royal family sent out an invitation for Prince Harry and Meghan Markle to attend King Charles III‘s coronation on May 6, the same day as their son Archie’s fourth birthday.

This act has left supporters of the Duke and Duchess wondering if the invitation was purely a pleasantry, or if the date was chosen to cause conflict.

“I can confirm The Duke has recently received an email correspondence from His Majesty’s office regarding the coronation,” a spokesperson for the pair said. “An immediate decision on whether The Duke and Duchess will attend will not be disclosed by us at this time.”

Prince Harry Says King Charles’ Joked About Not Being His ‘Real’ Father In New Memoir
Image
Prince Harry has claimed in his new book that his father King Charles III made a “sadistic” joke about his paternity.

The Duke of Sussex opens up about the incident and his father’s passion for telling “stories” in his new memoir Spare.

Harry said that his father, who became “philosophical” towards the end of his stories, acknowledged that no one could be sure they weren’t “living in a fantasy” before joking about the possibility he wasn’t Harry’s “real father.”

> 100 Celebrity Kids & Their Famous Parents – Slideshow!

Harry, 38, didn’t take the joke well as he grew up amid rumors that his actual father was Princess Diana‘s former lover Major James Hewitt.

Hewitt famously had an affair with Princess Diana after he became her horse-riding instructor. According to Hewitt’s book Princess in Love, the affair lasted from 1986 to 1991 and occurred when Diana was still married to Charles.

Prince Harry says his relationship with his father isn’t perfect.

In an excerpt from the royal’s leaked memoir, he alleged that King Charles III used to joke about who really fathered him with his mother Princess Diana.

“Pa liked telling stories, and this was one of the best in his repertoire. He’d always end with a burst of philosophizing … Who knows if I’m really the Prince of Wales? Who knows if I’m even your real father?” he recalled, via Page Six.

Did Princess Diana Have an Affair Outside Her Marriage to King Charles III? Here's What We Know
Image
With the release of the Sussexes' tell-all docuseries, "Harry & Meghan," on Netflix, the royals and their complex love lives are front of mind for people all over the world, including the love life of Prince Harry's parents, King Charles III and Princess Diana.

When Charles and Diana famously decided to end their marriage, the word was that the split was amicable, but at the time in 1992, no other official reasons were given. Though it took until 1996 for the couple to formally divorce, rumors and speculation about infidelity from both parties emerged much sooner than that.

It was a well-known "secret" that during their marriage, Charles was having an affair with Queen Consort Camilla Parker Bowles, whom he dated before marrying Diana and would ultimately marry years later. Diana eventually admitted in 1995 - after she and Charles had separated - that she, too, had been having an affair. Diana had...

Netflix’s ‘Diana The Musical’ Sweeps The Board At This Year’s Razzie Awards
Image
Diana the Musical, the much-mocked telling of the life story of Diana, Princess of Wales, has swept the board at this year’s Razzie Awards.

Complete winners list below.

The stage show, of which a filmed version was shown on Netflix, won five awards at this year’s Golden Raspberries, including worst picture, worst actress for Jeanna de Waal in the title role, worst director, worst supporting actress and worst screenplay. It had been nominated in nine categories altogether.

Netlix streamed a filmed version of the stage show before it debuted on Broadway, without a live audience due to theaters being closed at a time of coronavirus restrictions. When the theatrical show eventually opened, it lasted for only 33 performances on Broadway before the curtain fell for the final time.

Results for the 42nd Razzie Awards are in — and if you had anything to do with “Diana: The Musical,” you might want to go back to bed.

The big, fat Broadway bomb about the Princess of Wales beamed into your living room courtesy of Netflix was this year’s big Razzie “winner,” taking home five of what the group calls its “un-coveted … tacky, gold-spray-painted statuettes.”

The streaming version of the stage musical bagged Worst Picture, Worst Actress (Jeanna de Waal), Worst Supporting Actress, Worst Director (Christopher Ashley) and Worst Screenplay. The group pointed out how richly the “Diana” script deserved the honor for “featuring some of the year’s most ridiculed dialogue and lyrics — Including rhyming ‘Camilla’ with both ‘Manila’ and ‘Godzilla.'”

Razzie Awards Nominations: ‘Diana, The Musical’ Up For Worst (Almost) Everything
Image
In a year where the Kristen Stewart-led Spencer earned its share of awards buzz comes word that another project about the late Princess Diana is the leading candidate for the anti-Oscars. Diana, the Musical, the filmed version of the ill-fated Broadway show, took a final bow with nine nominations for the 42nd annual Razzie Awards revealed today.

The show “scored” nine noms for the 2022 Golden Raspberries spanning nearly all of the categories, including Worst Picture, Actress, Actor, Director and Screenplay. The Woman in the Window and Karen are a distant second with five apiece, followed by Space Jam: A New Legacy with four and Infinite and The Misfits with three each.

The “winners” will be “honored” on March 26, the day before the Academy Awards. Watch the nominations video above.

Razzie Awards: Bruce Willis Bags His Own Category for 8 Bad Performances in One Year
LeBron James
The Razzie Awards nominations recognizing the worst “crap streaming, beaming and steaming from our various screens and devices” of 2021 — as the group put it — have been announced, with LeBron James, “Diana: The Musical,” Amy Adams and Bruce Willis topping the heap.

“Here’s a look at what we saw,” the organization said in a press release. “The excruciating musicals, thrill-free thriller rip-offs, a nearly 2 hour product placement flick, and more Bruce Willis than any starving viewer could stomach. In other words, 2021 did not fail the Razzies!”

With Oscar nominations coming out on Tuesday morning, the Academy Award’s snarky counterpart, the Golden Raspberry Awards (aka the Razzies) followed suit as they do every year at this time acknowledging the superior work – or, actually, the inferior work – coming out of the entertainment industry.

Leading the field with nine nods is Netflix’s “Diana: The Musical.” Released in October, The Razzies called...

‘Diana, The Musical’ Broadway Review: A Royal Mess That Just Wants To Be Loved
Image
Diana, The Musical begins its Act II with the shirtless, well-toned actor portraying the princess’ studly consort James Hewitt doing his best Urban Cowboy riding-the-bull impression, much to the dirty-dancing delight of the smitten royal.

Finally, you think, Diana has fully embraced itself, director Christopher Ashley has rediscovered the campy aesthetic that served him so well from Jeffrey to The Rocky Horror Show and hope may not be entirely lost. But then the pink-bedecked romance novelist Barbara Cartland (don’t ask) stops the action to announce that she just made up that steamy bit, and the ripped stable boy covers up his abs and Diana sinks back to its high-decibel mediocrity.

By now you’ve probably read, heard or seen for yourself, via Netflix, just how deliciously bad Diana is, but the truth isn’t quite so much fun. Diana, opening tonight on Broadway at the Longacre Theatre, is not a so-bad-it’s-good disaster.

‘The Crown’: First Look at Elizabeth Debicki as Princess Diana, Dominic West as Prince Charles in Season 5

Netflix has released the first look of Elizabeth Debicki as Princess Diana and Dominic West as Prince Charles in “The Crown.”

Season 5, which started production in the U.K. last month, features Debicki as the princess through the early 1990s and West as her estranged husband.

Debicki takes over from Emma Corrin, who played Diana in season 4 when she met and married a young Prince Charles (Josh O’Connor) and dealt with the stress of worldwide fame. Diana struggled with an eating disorder and had an affair of her own with James Hewitt (Daniel Donskoy) after learning of Charles’ extra-marital romance with Camilla Parker Bowles (Emerald Fennel).

Debicki’s recent credits include Christopher Nolan’s “Tenet.” She is also known for her roles as Ayesha in “Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2” and Alice in “Widows.”

West, who takes over from O’Connor, recently appeared alongside Lily James in mini-series “The Pursuit of Love.

The momentous life and tragic death of Diana, Princess of Wales, seems to never grow old for Hollywood.

Why The Crown Season 4 Opted Not to Show Prince Charles and Princess Diana's Wedding
Image
Image Source: Netflix

Netflix's The Crown season four, which premieres on Nov. 15, finally showcases Prince Charles and Princess Diana's whirlwind romance, but one of the biggest moments of their relationship isn't actually shown on screen. While the season features glimpses of their courtship, engagement, and first royal tour together, it doesn't re-create their royal wedding in 1981. Instead, it focuses on the events leading up to the big day. In fact, the small glimpse you see of Princess Diana in her wedding dress in the trailer is about all you get.

In a recent interview with The Hollywood Reporter, Emma Corrin and Josh O'Connor, who play Diana and Charles on the series, gave a little backstory on why the famous wedding wasn't included. "We never recreate things just for the sake of recreating them. I think if we do recreate a scene - like the engagement scene, for instance, when...

Prince Charles Made a "Joke" After Harry's Birth That Actually Broke Diana's Heart
Princess Diana
Princess Diana was many things to many people, but above all else, she was an adoring and doting mother of two sons, Prince William and Prince Harry. While much is known about Diana's special connection with her boys, there's one thing people may not know about Harry's birth in particular: Prince Charles "desperately" wanted a little girl, and Diana, knowing that she was carrying a baby boy, kept the secret from her husband throughout her entire pregnancy.

About a year after Prince William was born in June 1982, Diana was under pressure to produce a spare to the heir. In September 1983, Buckingham Palace announced that Diana was pregnant for a second time, but sadly, she suffered a miscarriage later that week while at the Balmoral estate in Scotland. Cut to early 1984, when Charles and Diana found out that they were expecting again. During her difficult pregnancy, Diana told friends, "I don't...

‘Hellboy: The Board Game’ Review
Based on the hype that appears to surround Hellboy: The Board Game, I’d be surprised if there was anyone left who is interested in the game but hasn’t already purchased it. When games like this come to retail, stripped of their Kickstarter exclusives and multiple expansions, they are sometimes revealed as little more than attractive shelf ware. However where Hellboy: The Board Game is concerned, that is most definitely not the case. This attractive and exciting game is designed by Games Workshop veteran James Hewitt and debutant Sophie Williams. Between them, the pair have produced a game that is fast paced and modern, albeit backed by relatively classical dice rolling and movement. Mantic Games always exceptional production values ice the cake.

Hellboy: The Board Game is a one to four player game that stays close to the well-trodden path beaten by previous Mantic Games offerings – and nearly every...

Prince Harry's Real Name Isn't Actually Harry (Who Knew?!)
Is this a joke? You really never know with the royal family! In case you were wondering, Prince Harry's real name isn't actually Harry. While we all call the red-headed royal by the popular moniker, it turns out his birth name is actually Henry Charles Albert David. That's right, he has three middle names. His full royal title is His Royal Highness Prince Henry of Wales. But, Prince Henry is so cute, so why do we call him Harry? Since his childhood, he's been called Harry because it's a common nickname for Henry in the royal family. His late mother, Princess Diana, also used to call her boy, "My Little Spencer," to show that his red hair came from her side of the family. Harry also sometimes uses absurd nicknames so he will go unnoticed. He often goes by "Spike Wells," just to name one. When he was in the military,...

Love Island 2005: What happened to winner Jayne Middlemiss? Or love god Lee Sharpe? We find out!
Remember the first ever Love Island with its seemingly clueless single celebrities constantly bickering on a tumultuous and stormy (literally and metaphorically) Fijian island?

Even the show's co-hosts Kelly Brook and Patrick Kielty were baying for one another's blood when Kielty decided to declare during one live show that Brook had previously dated contestant Paul Danan.

Other memorable highlights included Abi Titmuss becoming more and more enraged as Fran Cosgrave repeatedly referred to her as Vanessa Feltz, swiftly followed by a tipsy and uncouth Rebecca Loos letting rip.

The series aired almost exactly a decade ago, so we found ourselves wondering - whatever happened to eventual winner Jayne Middlemiss? And the Love Island love god that was Lee Sharpe?

As the new non-celebrity series currently enjoys its ITV2 revival, we find out what the 12 star contestants have gone on to do since their 2005 stint below:

Celebrity Super Spa: Is it the most desperate reality show ever?
Fancy watching some poor punter getting a back, sack and crack from Rustie Lee? Want a waxing from Helen Flanagan? Is Arg from Towie delivering pedicures what you've been waiting for all these years? Well, wait no more people. Celebrity Super Spa has arrived.

I've already had the joy of watching episode one of Super Spa. I've seen the awkward and cringeworthy hosts. I've seen Helen Flanagan prancing around without any trousers on. I've seen Rustie Lee cackling. 867 times.

And I'll probably watch it all over again tonight (September 13) when it airs on Channel 5. Firstly, because I'm a glutton for terrible television. Secondly, because I'm fairly convinced it may be the most desperate celebrity reality show ever concieved. Even by Channel 5's late night standards, this is awful. It makes The Bachelor look like The Sopranos.

So where does the show fit in the history of degrading and embarrassing celebrity reality shows?...

Prince Harry Let Family Down With Nude Pic? Clearly He’s Forgotten About These 10 Royal Scandals
“At the end of the day I probably let myself down, I let my family down, I let other people down,” Prince Harry sighed during a recent interview about his nude Las Vegas photos taken last August. To which we say…do you even know your family, Harry? Maybe things were different when Queen Elizabeth II was a girl, but if the last couple decades have taught us anything, it’s that you could barely be considered a British royal without at least one scandal in your back pocket. So don’t worry, Harry! You’re just joining other infamous royal scandals such as…

1) Kate Middleton’s bottomless nudes

Can Harry really feel too bad about everyone seen his nakedness when his new sister-in-law inadvertently showed the world hers while honeymooning in France last September? Kate Middleton obviously had no intention of anyone seeing her sans pants or sans bra,...

Phone hacking: Sienna Miller accepts £100,000 from News of the World
Actor is first celebrity to settle claim since tabloid admitted hacking several public figures' voicemail messages

Sienna Miller has accepted £100,000 compensation from the News of the World after it accepted unconditional liability for her phone-hacking claims.

The unexpected agreement came midway through a high court battle with the paper. The actor is the first celebrity to settle a claim since the tabloid, part of Rupert Murdoch's News Group Newspapers (Ngn), last month admitted hacking the phones of several public figures. The settlement is the highest privacy award to date; Ngn will also pay Miller's legal costs.

Michael Silverleaf QC, Ngn's barrister, had previously claimed Miller's case could result in £400,000 in damages. He told the court this would be a "ludicrous" sum.

Separately, it emerged that James Hewitt, the man who became famous for his affair with Princess Diana, is poised to sue for invasion of privacy. He will issue...

Scotland Yard Admits to “Operational Shortcomings” in Phone-Hacking Scandal Investigation
Former deputy prime minister John Prescott in London, January 2011. Carl De Souza/Afp/Getty Images. Sarah Ellison, whose in-depth account of the News of the World phone-hacking scandal appears in the June 2011 issue of Vanity Fair, reports on the latest developments in the case. As celebrities continue to line up to sue the News of the World newspaper for hacking into their voice mails (for the latest, see Jude Law and James Hewitt, the former military officer known for his affair with Princess Diana), lawyers for Britain’s Scotland Yard appeared in London’s Royal Courts of Justice on May 12 to defend its record of doing very little to get to the bottom of the phone-hacking scandal in Britain. Exhibiting their skill for understatement, lawyers for Scotland Yard admitted there had been “some operational shortcomings” in the Yard’s investigation. But the hearing also revealed a new piece of the complex puzzle of this case.

James Sutton brands Celebrity Big Brother a ‘freak show’
Emmerdale actor James Sutton has described Celebrity Big Brother as a ‘freak show’.

Sutton, who plays Ryan Lamb in the ITV soap, said that shows like Big Brother have made ‘Celebrity’ a dirty word.

In an interview with Now magazine James was asked if he would ever appear on the Channel 4 show. He replied: “No, I find the concept embarrassing. ‘Celebrity’ is kind of almost a dirty word now – it just makes me think of Kerry Katona and Jordan.”

“I did enjoy Big Brother,” he continued. “But as time went on it became a bit of a freak show.”

Royal lover 'doesn't feel English'
Britain's Princess Diana's former lover James Hewitt doesn't feel English. The 51-year-old former British household cavalry officer moved to Spain earlier this year, and says he now thinks of himself as European. He told Britain's Daily Mail newspaper: "I don't even class myself as English any more. I have nothing to do with them - and they don't want me either. "I lived there for nearly 50 years and fought for Queen and country for 17 years - but I consider myself to be more European now." James was criticised after he revealed he had embarked on a five-year relationship with the late Princess of Wales - who died in a 1997 Paris car crash - while she was married...

James Hewitt's Prince Harry rumours
Princess Diana's former lover James Hewitt has spoken about rumours he is the father of Britain's Prince Harry. The 51-year-old retired household cavalry officer - who had a much-publicised affair with the Princess of Wales in the 90s - made a cryptic comment about persistent speculation he is the biological parent of the 24-year-old royal. Asked if he found it odd that people still say the red-headed royal looks like him, Hewitt said: "I can answer most things. But when it's so close to you and it's also so far from you? so I don't know how much there is in that." "It's easy for a girl, because you definitely know if you have a child or not, but for...

Prince Harry Denies He Has Ginger Hair and is in Fact Auburn - Bs
Written by  Peter Ross (UK) -

At Prince Charles' 60th birthday celebration last night Harry Windsor, everyone's third favourite prince, revealed that he is not ginger. Do my eyes deceive me or have I been colour blind all these years? He announced to a shocked crowd that he is not ginger but in fact auburn. The prince obviously was never very good at understanding colours - he was caught cheating on his A-Level Art coursework and still only managed to get a C.

Calling yourself auburn is the ultimate get out clause for those ashamed of their colouring - that and strawberry blond. Both are nice euphemisms but it doesn't get over the fact that he is ginger.

I think people should get over ginger-baiting. The royal son's hair colour is a proud indication of his Celtic roots. Being a red head is unusual and makes people stand out from the crowd.

Royal Harry's DNA Plot
Prince Harry
The British Royal Family has uncovered a plot to try and steal some of Prince Harry's DNA. The plan was aimed at discovering the truth behind the rumors surrounding the teenage prince's parentage. Some claim he is not really the son of Prince Charles, but in fact the product of Princess Diana's five-year-long affair with James Hewitt. A royal insider says of the plot, "It involved a security firm using a pretty girl to get close enough to Harry to pluck out one of his hairs. It would be sold abroad where it would be analyzed. The object was to prove this ridiculous rumor."...
