A Right Royal Podcast
Join Emily Nash, Royal Editor; Andrea Caamano Website Editor; and Emmy Griffiths, TV and Film Editor for A Right Royal Podcast. Three big voices behind the mike get some enlightening but also hilarious conversations with our guests.
Out of the trio, Emmy asks the questions that all of us would be keen to ask, and Emily and Andrea - as well as providing answers - confidently question our guests and extract never-before-heard stories from those closest to the palace. From an ex-royal secretary to the Queen describing a very awkward moment between himself and Princess Diana to royal photographer Arthur Edwards MBE describing some of his most emotional and personal moments with King Charles, the show is sometimes hilarious, frequently fascinating but always entertaining.
Episodes
Remembrance, Earthshot and a BIG TV moment for Camilla
In the episode, we are joined by our colleague, Online Royal Correspondent Danielle Stacey - who recently joined Prince William in his capers in Cape Town. Danielle opened up about her incredible time covering Earthshot and hearing the Prince of Wales speak up close and personal.
We also discuss Queen Camilla's big TV moment with her new documentary, which delves into the issue of domestic violence and King Charles' inspiring birthday plans (prompting a fierce debate about whether ignoring lunch is an acceptable practice or not)! We also chatted about Princess Kate's wonderful appearance at the Festival of Remembrance, where she was supported by her good friend and fellow royal, Sophie, the Duchess of Edinburgh.
The gang were also delighted to be joined by royal author Robert Hardman, who recently updated his fantastic biography of King Charles III with plenty of new details and information, who discussed the royal family's updated funeral plans, as well as Prince Andrew's finances after finding the funds to remain at the Royal Lodge residence.
Robert also opened up about the King's relationship with his youngest son Prince Harry, and whether the pair are any closer to reconciling following their fallout. Oh, and who can forget Robert's knowledge about the late Queen's diaries, and when he expects they'll be used for biographers in the future.

A Right Royal Podcast: Money & The Monarchy
Following a briefing at Buckingham Palace about royal taxes and other financial matters that our GCSE mathematics struggled to comprehend, podcast hosts Emmy Griffiths and Emily Nash break down what it all means - and why it has raised some eyebrows.
Much has been made by Prince William's reluctance to disclose his expenditure as the Prince of Wales, unlike his dad King Charles did back in his days as the heir to the throne. But why would William have made this decision? Do the royals pay taxes as well as receive taxpayers' money? And what is the Duchy of Cornwall, anyway? Have a listen to find out!
While the show's usual co-host Andrea Caamano is enjoying Spain's Euros win on a beach, Emily and Emmy are joined by the late Queen's former press secretary Ailsa Anderson, to chat about all of the latest goings on with the royals - including the latest financial goings on - as she reveals just how much the royals cost the average taxpayer every year. We'll give you a clue - it's the equivalent of a common supermarket purchase! But would you pay for it, if you had the choice to?
Emmy, Emily and Ailsa also discuss Prince George's very special 11th birthday, and how things might be different from the youngster in the future when he eventually becomes King - and Emily and Ailsa reflect on what it was like on the day of his birth - with Ailsa revealing her uniquely special role in announcing the heir to the throne's arrival to the world!
