Duke of Gloucester leaves key royal behind in earning special rank
Prince Richard, Duke of Gloucester, 81, has been given a special accolade for his contributions to the monarchy and King Charles, seemingly leaving Prince William behind.
The 81-year-old royal, who is the first cousin of late Queen Elizabeth II, was ranked on the sixth spot just after Queen Camilla in an important list revealed last month. He had carried out 212 official engagements throughout 2025, surpassing Prince William’s tally of 202.
In a surprising turn of events, King Charles had dethroned his sister, often dubbed as the hardest working royal, in 2025 by carrying out 532 engagements. Meanwhile, Anne had been in second place with 478 engagements.
Despite the fact that the monarch had been undergoing weekly cancer treatments in the past year, he still managed to get the top spot as the hardest working royal. The Duke and Duchess of Edinburgh followed closely behind in the third and fourth spot respectively.
The Prince and Princess of Wales have understandably kept low public appearances since they have small children and Kate had just been recovering from her own cancer battle.
During this time, the lesser known senior working royals have been performing their duties quietly but vigilantly. It is understood that they have earned praise and appreciation from the King himself for the loyalty they have shown, especially during his health battle.
Taylor Swift is coming back stronger than a ’90s trend, for her 13th album, and what Swifties refer to as her magnum opus.
The 36-year-old pop superstar was previously reported to have returned to work after the release of her 12th album, The Life of a Showgirl, and latest updates reveal that she has partnered with longtime collaborators for the next project.
According to the latest tips, the 14-time-Grammy winner is expected to be releasing her 13th studio album in 2027, and Aaron Dessner as well as Jack Antonoff would be returning to the studio with her.
A social media post claimed, “It’s not yet clear, but a Laurel Canyon Sound is expected: 70s soft-rock/alternative rock w/ folk-country influences, very Fleetwood Mac code.”
Swifties flocked to the comments and reacted to the exciting news, with one writing, “As long as it’s her and Aaron Desner, I would be up for that!!”
Another added, “OMGG Fleetwood Mac sound pls!!” and “TS13 is so close omg,” chimed in a third.
While no official announcement has been made so far, a few months ago in an interview Travis Kelce teased that his fiancee had been working on a new sound in the studio.
Kensington Palace shared a rare glimpse of Princess Charlotte in which she channels her mum’s sporty side as she plays cricket.
