William and Kate can now grant royal warrants!
The Prince and Princess of Wales will issue their first royal warrants next year, with the first companies to be considered making their applications by the end of July.
Princess Kate will become the first Princess of Wales to grant royal warrants since Princess Mary of Teck in 1910 and just as for her husband, her royal seal of approval will be highly coveted.
The royal couple's warrants will be considered in a two-stage process, beginning this week with applications from firms who have existing warrants for the King and Queen. Several of the royal mother-of-three's favourite designers are likely to be in the running, including Catherine Walker, Jenny Packham and Erdem.
Royal Train to be cut
The Royal Train will be decommissioned after decades of service to the Royal Family, it has been revealed.
Despite having fond memories of travelling in the nine-carriage train, King Charles has decided to give it up rather than make costly upgrades to keep it running on a modern railway network.
He will continue to use it, however, until the current maintenance contract comes to an end in early 2027.

What can we expect at the Garden Party?

Charles and Camilla will mingle and chat to an array of guests, and the party is usually accompanied by music from regimental bands and The Royal Scottish Pipers Society.
The history of Holyroodhouse
The Palace of Holyroodhouse has been home to royalty for 500 years, and is Charles and Camilla's official Scottish residence. While it's used as a Royal Palace, it remains open to the public all year round. According to medieval legend, the Abbey was founded around 900 years ago in 1128 by David I of Scotland. It was later extended to include cloisters, guests houses and royal chambers for use by the sovereign.
These royal chambers were then converted into a palace by James IV at the time of his marriage to Margaret Tudor. Today, the Palace boasts impressive public gardens, an impressive gallery space for art from the Royal Collection, a Throne Room and the State Apartments.

William's latest outing
Hello! The Prince of Wales has been out in Sheffield today as he fronted a panel discussion to mark the second anniversary of his Homewards initiative, which seeks to combat homelessness.
The royal was joined by former Prime Minister, Gordon Brown, and Dragons' Den star, Steven Bartlett. Following the event, Gordon compared William to his late mother, Princess Diana. "I think he's changing people’s view of homelessness and what can be done about it," he told reporters.
“Remember, his mother changed people's views on Aids, his mother changed people’s views on landmines, and I think he's changing people's view that you've got to think of a homeless person as an individual who has potential – who if given the proper chance, can actually make something of their lives, and not as someone to be discounted as a down-and-out."

Fun facts!
Fun facts about the much-coveted seats on Centre Court:
There are only 74 spots in the Royal Box, with guests invited by the Chairman of the All England Club.
Gentlemen are required to wear a suit or a jacket and tie, while ladies are asked not to wear hats to avoid obscuring the vision of those seated behind them.
After play is finished for the day, guests in the royal box are then invited to the Clubhouse for lunch, tea and drinks.
