Meghan Markle returns to the airwaves today with the release of her new business podcast as her husband Prince Harry prepares for his latest court battle after flying into the UK.
The Duchess of Sussex announced she had signed a deal with Lemonada Media in February 2024 after her Spotify contract ended in 2023 after one series of her first podcast Archetypes.
Meanwhile, Prince Harry is in the UK ahead of his latest legal battle over security provided for him when he is in the country. The Duke is challenging a High Court ruling that allowed his taxpayer-funded protection to be downgraded.
It comes as King Charles and Queen Camilla start their ‘historic’ state visit of Italy with a series of engagements today after the royals flew into Rome yesterday afternoon.

Prince Harry’s legal hearing in the UK today
The Duke of Sussex has flown to London for an appeal against a High Court ruling on whether he is entitled to armed bodyguards paid for by the taxpayer.
Such a privilege had been taken away from the Prince after he stopped being a ‘full-time working member of the royal family’ in 2020.
In a judgment in February last year, retired High Court judge Sir Peter Lane rejected the duke’s case and concluded Ravec’s approach was not irrational nor procedurally unfair.
The appeal is expected to begin around midday today and continue into tomorrow, April 9.
