King Charles will not feature on the new Australian $5 banknote in a major snub to the Royal Family. The banknote, which feature a portrait of the late Queen Elizabeth II since 1992, is set to be redesigned to reflect Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people’s connection to country and the overturning of terra nullius.

While the news that the note would not feature the King was announced last year, the Reserve Bank of Australia has now opened submissions for artwork to honour the "enduring emotional, spiritual and physical connection" of First Nations people to the land, seas and waters on the $5 note.

Meghan Markle’s new show may have received plenty of criticism, but new research shows the cooking series has given a much-needed boost to tourism in the local area.

While not filmed at Meghan and Prince Harry’s own sprawling Montecito home, the show was instead filmed at another abode just down the road in the same neighbourhood - a place the couple have called home since quitting royal life in 2022. This has generated a huge swell of interest in the area, giving it an unexpected tourism boost.

Samuel Jefferies, Senior Growth Marketing Manager at Bókun, said that since the release of Meghan’s series, there have been 424,000 searches online in the past month for Montecito. As well as this, searches for ‘Montecito hotels’ have reported surged, with a 354 % increase in the past month.

Prince Harry's visa documents have been released as the Duke of Sussex faces calls to be deported from the US.

The heavily redacted court documents were released on Tuesday after Judge Carl Nichols previously ruled that some of the visa documents should be made public. As reported by The US Sun, the heavily redacted court documents read: "Plaintiffs allege that the records should be disclosed as public confidence in the government would suffer or to establish whether the Duke was granted preferential treatment.

"This speculation by Plaintiffs does not point to any evidence of government misconduct. The records, as explained above, do not support such an allegation but show the regulatory process involved in reviewing and granting immigration benefits, which was done in compliance with the Immigration and Nationality Act, 8 U.S.C. § 1103 and applicable rules and regulation."

Meghan Markle was reportedly asked by King Charles to "stay away" from the late Queen Elizabeth II's deathbed for one major reason.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex had travelled to the UK for work commitments just days before the late monarch passed away on September 8, 2022.

The visit marked their last joint visit to the UK, with Meghan having not travelled to Britain since 2022. The couple's children, Prince Archie, five, and Princess Lilibet, three, have also not visited the UK since the Platinum Jubilee in June 2022.

Despite being one of the most famous children in the world, Princess Charlotte’s life behind closed doors is not too dissimilar from other nine-year-olds.

From cooking at home with her siblings to ballet classes and sports matches, the young princess is being brought up in a way that is much more ordinary than some may believe.

However, while her hobbies and interests may be very similar to others the same age, her favourite snack is not necessarily typical of a nine-year-old. While many children may love crisps and chocolate, Princess Kate once revealed that her daughter Charlotte instead loves to snack on olives. This was revealed by Princess Kate in 2019.

Princess Kate is well-known for living a healthy lifestyle when it comes to both nutrition and exercise. Over the years, The Princess of Wales, 43, has been open in speaking about her love of certain healthy foods, with two of these food items reportedly playing a role in helping her keep her skin healthy and glowing.

As previously reported by OK!, the mum-of-three includes two particular vegetables in her breakfast which are packed with protein and healthy vitamins - spinach and kale. It is believed the future Queen has these with her breakfast, along with other healthy ingredients. Among them is avocado - a healthy food item also loved by King Charles.

Prince Louis could soon pass a major royal milestone - one that his siblings and younger cousin have already reached.

The young royal, who will celebrate his seventh birthday next month, is yet to travel aboard as part of a royal tour but could soon have the opportunity to do so due to his mum’s latest admission.

During a recent candid chat, the Princess of Wales said that she hoped to take her children - Prince George, 11, and 9-year-old Princess Charlotte and Louis - to either Australia or New Zealand.

Prince George travelled to Australia and New Zealand with his parents back in 2014. Like her older brother, Princess Charlotte made her overseas debut in Canada in 2016. Born in 2018, Louis is yet to go on a tour with his parents.

Prince William could be set to take on another important role in his life after his close friend announced he is expecting a child with his wife. The Prince of Wales, 42, could become godfather to his close friend the Duke of Westminster's first child, which is due this summer.
