Benedict Cumberbatch and Sophie Hunter at The Earthshot Prize Innovation Summit → September 24 2024
The Earthshot Prize is an environmental challenge that catalyzes urgent optimism & action by discovering, accelerating, awarding, spotlighting & scaling solutions to repair & regenerate the planet. The summit will convene business leaders, philanthropists, investors and government leaders alongside Earthshot Prize Finalists and Winners to strengthen the power of the global Earthshot community.
Sophie talked about her production Salt of the Earth that premiered recently in Venice, "an act of story-telling created through deep collaboration with scientists, activists and local initiatives" that "shone a light on an overlooked and disregarded but vital ecosystem: salt marshes."
Benedict talked about supporting Green Rider, a campaign and grassroots union network of creatives campaigning for a fairer, more sustainable, eco-friendly film industry. Green Rider is developing strong examples of how cast can supercharge climate action through the industry and create a blueprint that others can easily follow.

30 AUGUST 2024: Richard Kay, Daily Mail, "The inside story of Harry's 'greatly significant' trip home revealed by RICHARD KAY... and why it proves where his REAL loyalties lie" [archive link]
Each year, since Diana’s passing in 1997, Harry and William have made a pilgrimage to their mother’s grave close to the anniversary of her death. They used to do so together, but in recent years have done so apart. That this year they were together again over the week of their mother’s anniversary is deeply symbolic. Harry would have known this before choosing to attend the memorial. It appears crystal clear to me that he is finally ready for rapprochement.
31 AUGUST 2024: Charlotte Griffiths & Ian Gallagher, Daily Mail, "Duke of Sussex asks former aides to help plot RETURN from his US exile in first stage of 'rehabilitation' strategy: Prince's friends vow to help smooth path back and dub it 'Operation Bring Harry In From The Cold'" [archive link]
At least one of the advisers approached by Harry is a trusted figure 'from the old school' known for loyalty and discretion. One friend has already devised a strategy for how Harry might begin moving in UK circles again – even carrying out 'very low-key royal duties' – although the Duke is said to be open to ideas from many sources. A source said the friend 'believes if Harry comes back to the UK with zero fuss, and does zero publicity and attends very mundane events, he could prove himself and win over the British public again.
03 SEPTEMBER 2024: Isabelle Casey, Hello!, "Exclusive: Princess Kate issues heartfelt letter to fellow mum amid cancer treatment" [archive link]
The Princess of Wales has taken a step back from her royal duties since news of her cancer diagnosis, so one can only imagine Kirsty Kerr's amazement when she received a special letter on behalf of the future Queen just two weeks ago. Kirsty, whose six-year-old daughter Isla has coeliac disease, reached out to Her Royal Highness back in December after reading a statement from the Princess's Shaping Us campaign, focusing on children's mental health. [...] Following her letter, Kirsty received a thoughtful response from Kate's office.

06 SEPTEMBER 2024: Tom Sykes, The Daily Beast, "Prince Harry Just Made a Pilgrimage to Princess Diana’s Grave" [archive link]
Prince Harry visited his mother Princess Diana’s grave when he was staying at her ancestral home in the U.K. last week, The Daily Beast has been told by a friend and neighbor of Diana’s brother, the 9th Earl, Charles Spencer. [...] The Spencer friend told The Daily Beast: “Harry visited the grave when he was in Althorp. It’s a very special place for all the family but especially Harry. It was a significant part of his motivation for staying there.”

GB News issues a serious news story:
07 SEPTEMBER 2024: Roya Nikkhah, The Sunday Times
"Will Kate return to public life soon? Hopes for an autumn comeback" [archive link]
However, after a restful summer spent with the Prince of Wales and their three children at Anmer Hall, their home in Norfolk, the princess is beginning to think about the months ahead. There is no set date for her return to public life, nor any engagements inked into her diary, and Kate will not accompany William to Cape Town in early November for this year’s Earthshot Prize awards. But if she continues to have more “good days”, it is understood she has set her sights on “potentially” joining the King and the royal family at the Cenotaph for the National Service of Remembrance on November 10.
The Telegraph, "Taxpayers fund study of monarchy in Caribbean that will be ‘valuable for agitators’" [archive link]
British taxpayers have footed an £800,000 bill for a study on the monarchy’s future in the Caribbean that claims to be of “immense value” to activists “agitating” for its abolition. The Arts and Humanities Research Council (AHRC) has given The Visible Crown, which is examining the legacy of the late Queen in the West Indies, £825,417 in taxpayer funding. The research project’s website claims it will be “of immense value to academics, but also to all those engaged with, advising on or agitating for constitutional reform in the Caribbean, and in the Commonwealth realms more generally”. The principal investigator of the study claimed last year that Britain’s monarchy “sustains white inherited privilege”.
08 SEPTEMBER 2024: Hello! magazine, "Prince William and Princess Kate hire additional support as the Princess of Wales' return details revealed" [archive link]
As posting on their website notes that the royal couple is hiring a senior communications officer. The description reads: "The successful candidate will lead on communications plans for Their Royal Highnesses' engagements and support on the delivery of communications strategies to promote their key projects. The role will also involve responding to media enquiries on matters related to The Prince and Princess and their family." Travel between royal residences in the UK and travel abroad is required for the full-time role, although it will usually be based at Kensington Palace. The candidate must also be able to "handle sensitive information with tact and discretion at all times".
Newsweek, James-Crawford Smith, "Princess Kate's 6-Month Cancer Journey, So Far" [archive link]
The royal mother of three, stepped out of the public eye in January to undergo abdominal surgery which was later linked to a cancer diagnosis, necessitating a course of "preventive chemotherapy." During this time, Kate has remained mainly behind palace walls, making positive progress, but still undergoing the challenging treatment. Here, Newsweek takes a look at Kate's cancer journey so far, six months after her chemotherapy treatment began.
NY Post, "Kate Middleton is plotting her return to public life amid cancer battle — but still has ‘a long journey to recovery’" [archive link]
But The Times reported that Middleton and her advisors are planning possible public engagements on her “good days” over the next few months. Specifically, Middleton “potentially” may join her father-in-law, King Charles III, who also has cancer, and the royal family at the Cenotaph for the National Service of Remembrance on November 10.

A message from Catherine, The Princess of Wales
As the summer comes to an end, I cannot tell you what a relief it is to have finally completed my chemotherapy treatment. The last nine months have been incredibly tough for us as a family. Life as you know it can change in an instant and we have had to find a way to navigate the stormy waters and road unknown.
The cancer journey is complex, scary and unpredictable for everyone, especially those closest to you. With humility, it also brings you face to face with your own vulnerabilities in a way you have never considered before, and with that, a new perspective on everything.
This time has above all reminded William and me to reflect and be grateful for the simple yet important things in life, which so many of us often take for granted. Of simply loving and being loved.
Doing what I can to stay cancer free is now my focus. Although I have finished chemotherapy, my path to healing and full recovery is long and I must continue to take each day as it comes.
I am however looking forward to being back at work and undertaking a few more public engagements in the coming months when I can.
Despite all that has gone before I enter this new phase of recovery with a renewed sense of hope and appreciation of life.
William and I are so grateful for the support we have received and have drawn great strength from all those who are helping us at this time. Everyone’s kindness, empathy and compassion has been truly humbling.
To all those who are continuing their own cancer journey – I remain with you, side by side, hand in hand. Out of darkness, can come light, so let that light shine bright.
Robbie Collin, The Telegraph, "The films that inspired the royal home movie" [archive link]
Many of us remember when important statements from the Royal family were faxed direct to Fleet Street’s newsrooms – or, in exceptional circumstances, read aloud at the end of palace driveways for the cameras. This week, however, bore witness to a new mode of delivery: an impressionistic short film harking back to the glory days of Merchant Ivory. Howards End, The Remains of the Day, A Room with a View: three elegant literary adaptations from the late 1980s and early 90s, whose refined surfaces masked the deep currents of feeling underneath. Well, to announce the news that the Princess of Wales had completed her chemotherapy, we essentially got a three-minute revival of the style in home movie form.

Tom Sykes, The Daily Beast, "Kate Middleton’s Cancer Recovery Video Is ‘Reset to End All Resets’: Source"
One friend of William and Kate told The Daily Beast: “It’s the reset to end all resets. This is Kate and William as they mean to go on. It’s family first and f--- the haters, f--- the press, f--- Harry and Meghan.
10 SEPTEMBER 2024: The videographer from Kate's announcement
Critique of Kate's announcement video:
Polly Hudson, The Mirror, "Kate Middleton's cancer airbrushing doesn't reflect brutality of ordinary people's chemotherapy"
But it feels important to take a moment to consider those who may feel differently. Those for whom this deeply unrealistic view of cancer treatment will be incredibly jarring, to say the least. Unlike that infamous Mother's Day photo, this really matters. Airbrushing out the dark and only showing the light is digitally altering the truth. As anyone who has ever witnessed someone going through chemo will know, it's the polar opposite of frolicking in a sunlit meadow. An oncologist treating a family member of mine once described it as something that “nearly kills them, to try and save their life.” Kate hasn’t set herself up as a poster child for all cancer patients, and to some extent she can’t win no matter what she does – but there is a real disconnect between the glossy, perfect aesthetic portrayed in the three minute film, and the brutal reality for the thousands of British people currently being treated for cancer.
11 SEPTEMBER 2024: Hannah Furness, The Telegraph, "Why the Princess of Wales’s public role may never be the same again" [archive link]
This was not a video filmed by committee, workshopped by Kensington Palace aides and edited with the help of focus groups. It was, sources said, a “creative outlet” for the Princess, who has chosen to take control of her own message in a public life which has seen her cede so much. “This is her,” says a friend. The Princess is now, they say, working out what is right for her future, and that of her family. [...] Other questions, seasoned royal observers point out, remain - in particular, the role the Princess envisages playing in public life in the future. “My path to healing and full recovery is long and I must continue to take each day as it comes,” the Princess says. “I am however looking forward to being back at work and undertaking a few more public engagements in the coming months when I can.” What that will look like is uncertain. Save for two key appearances – Remembrance Sunday and her annual carol concert at Westminster Abbey, which will take place unless her health changes – the rest of her diary over the coming months is unconfirmed for obvious reasons, to allow for cancellations without causing alarm.

17 SEPTEMBER 2024: Kate attended a meeting at Windsor Castle.
Joseph Wilkes & Rebecca Russell, The Mirror, "Kate Middleton's days of one thing taking 'precedence' are over and William won't 'exert any pressure'"
Jennie (Bond) also noted, "This doesn't mean she intends to be only part-time forever because these days there are other ways to be visible... Video messages and social media posts are all ways she could still be in touch and give her support to her causes, while still being there for her children. "In 12 or so years, when Catherine's full recovery will hopefully be well-established, the children will probably all be off into further education, and then she can concentrate more on her work... But until she feels comfortable taking on more, we must be patient. "We should spare a thought for those children. Yes, I know they have been born into huge privilege, but they have a grandfather with cancer, a grandmother who was killed before they were born, a mother the centre of their world who has been made vulnerable by this sledgehammer of a disease, and a dad who is battling all sorts of emotions while trying to do the best for his family and his country. Those children deserve to have their mum with them for as long as they need her.
22 SEPTEMBER 2024: William gets a new equerry.
Kensington Palace lists a job opening for a second Finance Manager.
Will & Kate attend church in Balmoral, Scotland, with the King and Queen.

Prince William Awards Speech | The Earthshot Prize
6 November 2024
"I saw first-hand the extent to which people were dedicating their time, talent, and vision.”
Prince William acknowledges the game-changers and leaders who contributed to this year’s Earthshot Prize.
—
Over the last ten years, the evidence that we face urgent challenges to protect the environment has become indisputable, and it’s clear that the time to act is now.
Drawing inspiration from the concept of moonshots which, since the moon landing in 1969 has become shorthand to talk about the most ambitious and ground-breaking goals, Prince William announced The Earthshot Prize: an ambitious set of challenges to inspire a decade of action to repair the planet.
We believe in the power of human ingenuity to prove to us all that the seemingly impossible is possible.
