When I was young, my grandmother used to mail us her weekly copies of the Star and Enquirer. I didn't bother watching The Crown because I read Kitty Kelley's book and it could get no better than that. My homeschool PhD in the affairs of the Windsor-Mountbatten family makes me eminently qualified to say I believe 90% of what Prince Harry is saying to the press, in the Netflix documentary, and in his upcoming memoir Spare.

Charles & Camilla seem more pleasant than ever. William and Kate are still young and skinny. There have been no scandals in a while. They all seem to get along and are dressing better than ever.
