King Charles had the support of his most loved and trusted people in the family as he continues his ‘uphill’ struggle for an important mission he has pursued all his life.

The King’s wife, Queen Camilla, and the monarch’s secret weapon, Duchess Sophie, were joined by the Duchess of Gloucester were present at Windsor to uplift the spirits of the not only the monarch, but the team that has been working tirelessly to pull off a starry event at Windsor.

The royals hosted a premiere of the upcoming documentary Finding Harmony: A King’s Vision, which delves into the lifelong agenda Charles has worked for: protecting the natural environment.

Charles has founded the King’s Foundation in 1970 and as it continues to build the skills of young Britons, the royal women chose to honour the work of the graduates from the Foundation’s programmes.

Aptly, the documentary also emphasises the need for “rewear, repair or recycle”. The graduates had designed brooches by using sustainable materials, inspired by the gardens of Highgrove, the monarch’s royal residence in Tetbury, Gloucestershire.

The Queen wore a brooch designed and embroidered by Eliza Gomersall and Durga Shanthakumar, the Duchess of Edinburgh wore a brooch by Katie Dickson and Duchess of Gloucester wore a brooch by Tamsin Lines.

The brooches were developed in partnership with Chanel, in the course which offers students training opportunities in embroidery for haute couture and the luxury fashion industry.

Katie said that it was an “honour” to design something for the royals. It also seemed a meaningful way for the royal women to embrace Charles’s message in the documentary.

Elon Musk said on Monday that SpaceX has acquired his artificial-intelligence start-up xAI in a record-setting deal that unifies Musk’s AI and space ambitions by combining the rocket-and-satellite company with the maker of the Grok chatbot.

The deal, first reported by Reuters last week, represents one of the most ambitious tie-ups in the technology sector yet, combining a space-and-defence contractor with a fast-growing AI developer whose costs are largely driven by chips, data centres and energy. It could also bolster SpaceX’s data-centre ambitions as Musk competes with rivals like Alphabet’s Google, Meta, Amazon-backed Anthropic and OpenAI in the AI sector.

The transaction values SpaceX at $1 trillion, and xAI at $250 billion, according to a person familiar with the matter.

“This marks not just the next chapter, but the next book in SpaceX and xAI’s mission: scaling to make a sentient sun to understand the Universe and extend the light of consciousness to the stars!” Musk said.

The purchase of xAI sets a new record for the world’s largest M&A deal, a distinction held for more than 25 years when Vodafone bought Germany’s Mannesmann in a hostile takeover valued at $203 billion in 2000, according to data compiled by LSEG.

The combined company of SpaceX and xAI is expected to price shares at about $527 each, another person familiar with the matter said. SpaceX was already the world’s most valuable privately held company, last valued at $800 billion in a recent insider share sale. xAI was last valued at $230 billion in November, according to the Wall Street Journal.

The merger comes as the space company plans a blockbuster public offering this year that could value it at over $1.5 trillion, two people familiar with the matter said.

SpaceX, xAI and Musk did not immediately respond to requests for comment.

The deal further consolidates Musk’s far-flung business empire and fortunes into a tighter, mutually reinforcing ecosystem – what some investors and analysts informally call the “Muskonomy” – which already includes Tesla, brain-chip maker Neuralink and tunnel firm the Boring Company.

The world’s richest man has a history of merging his ventures. Musk folded social media platform X into xAI through a share swap last year, giving the AI start-up access to the platform’s data and distribution. In 2016, he used Tesla’s stock to buy his solar-energy company SolarCity.

The agreement could draw scrutiny from regulators and investors over governance, valuation and conflicts of interest given Musk’s overlapping leadership roles across multiple firms, as well as the potential movement of engineers, proprietary technology and contracts between entities.

SpaceX also holds billions of dollars in federal contracts with NASA, the Department of Defense and intelligence agencies, which all have some authority to review M&A transactions for national security and other risks.

Jelly Roll opened up about his dramatic weight loss at the 2026 Grammy Awards, explaining that the transformation came only after he decided to take his health as seriously as his past battles with addiction.

Speaking to reporters in the Grammys press room on 1 February, the singer revealed he has lost more than 200 pounds and said the journey required a complete shift in mindset. 

“I did it with a lot of consistent cardio and food,” he said. 

“I had to fight my food addiction just the way I fought my cocaine addiction. I had to really take it serious. I had to change my relationship with food.”

The 41-year-old, whose real name is Jason Bradley DeFord, stressed that weight loss for him was as much mental as it was physical. He shared that therapy played a key role in helping him manage cravings and break unhealthy patterns. 

“I had to do a lot of mental therapy and a lot of mental work about it to block the food noise,” he explained, adding that he never used weight-loss injections. “Never did a GLP-1, but I don’t judge nobody who does it.”

Jelly Roll, who took home three awards at the 68th annual Grammys, including Best Contemporary Country Album, Best Country Duo/Group Performance with Shaboozey, and Best Contemporary Christian Music Performance/Song, used the moment to encourage others facing similar struggles. 

“Anybody who’s 500 pounds: I don’t care if you take one shot or 10,” he emphasised. 

“Do whatever it takes. Get the weight off. Don’t listen to nobody else. Go get your life straight and save that heart.”

He has previously shared that earlier attempts to lose weight had failed, and it was his sobriety journey that ultimately changed his approach.

Reflecting on the process during a December appearance on The Joe Rogan Experience, he said he decided to slow down and be more intentional. 

“When I sat down to try to lose it this time, I said, ‘I’m going to take a different approach. I’m going to really take my time with it and I’m going to think about what I’m doing and be intentional,’” he recalled, noting that his experience with addiction helped him recognise deeper patterns. 

“I’ve dealt with drug addiction, so I was like, maybe there’s something here.”

Exercise, particularly running, has become central to his daily routine. 

He recently told E! News that food was the biggest change he made, but movement became his anchor. 

“Running’s been my real healer,” he said, explaining that he runs every single day. Even on lighter days, he makes sure to get in at least a mile at a slow, steady pace.

Beyond the physical changes, Jelly Roll says his motivation is rooted in family. 

He is a father to Bailee Ann, 17, and Noah, 9, from previous relationships, and credits his wife, Bunnie XO, with being his strongest support system.

“Bunnie played the [biggest] role to even get me here,” he said. “Every part of me that gets better is just another attempt to be a better husband and a better father.”

While he is proud of the weight he has lost, Jelly Roll made it clear the journey is ongoing. 

For him, the transformation is not about a finish line, but about continuing to grow. As he put it, losing weight was only one step, and he knows he has to keep evolving tomorrow.
