Meghan Markle, who left her senior royal role with Prince Harry back in 2020, received support from a royal fan after critics slammed the Duchess of Sussex for an insensitive move during her four-day Australia visit.

Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet’s mum was invited as a special guest at an all-girls luxury retreat in Sydney. She sat down for a Q&A session where she spoke candidly about her experience in the public life describing it as “very hard”.

However, Meghan’s trip has not been without backlash over several things in the course of the tour. Some fans expressed how the getaway promised a “a weekend of connection, inspiration and personal growth, with Meghan positioned as its headline guest” but she left early Saturday morning.

Social media was abuzz with comments calling her out over leaving the event so soon and not even having dinner with attendees, like she was supposed to.

“Why did Meghan Markle not even share a meal with women who had paid $3000 to spend ‘retreat’ time with her? How is that kind?” one user wrote.

Others echoed the sentiment: “How ridiculous, they advertised like she was spending the whole weekend with them,” one said, while another remarked, “2 hours? I thought it was a weekend retreat? WOW!”

In the midst of all this, an entrepreneur and business owner Liliana Sanelli, who is also a fan of King Charles, shared kind words for Meghan.

“It’s not every day you can say you meet someone as beautiful as Meghan Markle,” she wrote. “This besties weekend has been incredible so far to connect, unite, recalibrate with 300 dynamic women.”

She continued, “Hearing Meghan speak so openly, authentically and be so real – has given me another perspective of powerful, insightful strong women when they are truly real to themselves.

“Whatever your opinion – I must admit I was blown away at her kind, caring engaging energy. There was no BS…. Just keeping it real.”

She noted that Harry was also in the room and the two are “definitely beautiful as a couple and in love”.

Nathalie Baye, the discreet icon of French cinema, passes away at age 77 at her home in Paris, her family confirms.

Fans were left reeling with the sudden passing of French film icon Nathalie Baye, who has starred in over 100 roles throughout her decades-long career.

Her buzzing film credits include Downton Abbey: A New Era, Catch Me if You Can, and Laurence Anyways.

After the news was confirmed by her family, fans and colleagues have been pouring out tributes.

Baye was struggling with Lewy body dementia, per the Y Net News outlet, which added that her health deteriorated in the summer of 2025.

She debuted her career in the French cinema in 1973 in La Nuit Américaine, directed by Francois Truffaut.

Baye saw her stardom rise after starring in Sauve qui peut (la vie) in 1980.

She was born on JULY 6, 1948, in Mainneville, in the Eure region.

Nathalie Baye showed interest at a very young age in theater and cinema and was enrolled in the drama classes of the Rue Blanche at the prestigious Conservatoire National Supérieur d’Art Dramatique de Paris in 1967 and graduated in 1971.

After debuting in the 1973 film La Nuit Américaine, she then worked with the legends of French cinema.

These included Jean-Luc Godard (Sauve qui peut ((la vie) 1980), Claude Sautet (Mado, 1976), Bertrand Tavernier (Une semaine de vacances, 1980), Bertrand Blier (Father-in-law, 1981), and Claude Chabrol (La Fleur du mal, 2003).

Baye is survived by her daughter, Laura Smet, who is also a famous French actress.

Madonna stunned everyone after making a cameo during Sabrina Carpenter’s buzzing performance on Friday night, April 17, at Coachella weekend two.

Madonna performed along with Sabrina Carpenter for duets of Vogue , Like a Prayer and a new track.

Carpenter was in the middle of performing Juno, usually the part of her ‘Short ‘n Sweet’ tour segment in which she playfully arrests a new celebrity and this time she brought out Madonna.

The pop queen appeared through center stage to perform Vogue, joining Carpenter to debut a new duet.

The buzz surrounding the track is that it would be featured on the singer’s upcoming album Confessions II.

Then, Madonna grabs the mic to give an extended address to the humming audience.

Recalling her 2006 debut, the pop queen said, “So 20 years ago today I performed at Coachella. I was in the dance tent and it was the first time I performed ‘Confessions on a Dance Floor Pt. 1’ in America, and that was such a thrill for me, so you can imagine what a thrill it is to be back 20 years later in the same boots, with the same corset, the jacket I had on earlier, a Gucci jacket.”

“So it’s like a full circle moment, you know? Very meaningful for me,” she concluded.

It’s not just a coincidence that Madonna’s return to Coachella aligns with the reveal of her upcoming album, Confessions II, earlier this week.

The album is set to be released on July 3, 2026, which marks the first full-length album in seven years.
