Prince Harry’s memoir Spare has been named Britain’s most popular bathroom read, topping a new survey that highlights its easy, conversational style.

Meanwhile, Meghan Markle is facing renewed online criticism after sharing a video of daughter Princess Lilibet with the family’s chickens, with some questioning the authenticity of the carefully curated glimpse into their California life.

We break down the latest wave of scrutiny, including claims about their standing in Montecito, ongoing questions about their brand, and whether their public image continues to work in their favor.
Plus: commentary from across the media landscape on why the Sussexes may be better suited to life in California than the United Kingdom, and new reports suggesting Prince Harry’s relationship with King Charles remains strained.
