There was a rapid decline following the death of Prince Philip. In the photo of her with Liz Truss I was particularly concerned about the colour of her hand. I remarked to my wife how overseeing the death of the Queen would likely be one of Truss’ first duties as PM.
Duke of Sussex’s children now entitled to prince and princess titles

BBC News, royal correspondent
Archie and Lilibet, the children of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, are now entitled to be called prince and princess.
They can receive those titles as the children of the new monarch’s son.
A lack of royal titles was raised as an issue of contention in Prince Harry and Meghan’s TV interview with Oprah Winfrey.
But the two children can now be a prince and princess, although there is no confirmation about whether the titles will be used.
There are other changes to titles. Prince William and Kate are now the Duke and Duchess of Cornwall and Cambridge, with the heir not automatically becoming the Prince of Wales.
Just heard another blinder. Apparently she drove to collect a visiting Saudi dignitary and gave him quite the swift ride to prove that women can drive. Hope it’s true!
Apparently as/when he was getting bounced around due to her going too fast down the narrow tracks… he got his translator to ask her to slow down… please
She just laughed and carried on with the ride from hell :0)
Prince of Wales, a title reserved exclusively for the heir apparent to the British throne. It dates from 1301, when King Edward I, after his conquest of Wales and execution (1283) of David III, the last native prince of Wales, gave the title to his son, the future Edward II.
