The first rumours that there was (another) batch of unusally revealing photos of Kate Middleton circulating came last week when reports began to circulate on twitter that Kate had been photographed at a friend's wedding with her skirt blowing up particularly high in the wind.

Kate suffered a similar wardrobe malfunction wearing the same Topshop dress when she arrived at the Harry Potter Studios with William and Harry last month.

And whilst Kate's decision not to have her clothes fitted with weights (as the Queen does) is questionable, even more questionable is the decision of the Daily Mail to run the pictures of Kate - who let us recall is seven months pregnant - today, a week after they were taken.

William and Harry were today cutting the ribbon on a new recovery centre for the charity Help for Heroes in Wiltshire.

Tedworth House in Tidworth is one of four new units in England which will offer respite care and rehabilitation to injured and sick service personnel, veterans and their families.

The centre in Wiltshire can accommodate 50 residents, four families and more than 150 day visitors.

Prince Harry flew back from America on Virgin Atlantic, the airline owned by his pal Richard Branson, but no word yet on whether the young Prince was propositioned by other flyers via the new Virgin inflight chat system.

While most airlines seem to make a habit of arresting passengers who get too fresh in the air, Branson has been encouraging customers to flirt using the new inflight chat system, in the way that this chat excerpt posted online demonstrates.

Regular readers will know that the Royalist is more than slightly obsessed by commemorative Royal china, so it is with baited breath that we unveil the newest colection, commemorating the 60th anniversary of the Coronation.

What's that I hear you say? Didn't we have the 60th anniversary last year? Wasn't that the, er, Jubilee? Well, no, the Jubilee celebrated 60 years in power, but in fact the actual ceremony of coronation did not happen till the following year, meaning we are going to get to run through much of it AGAIN this year!

The china, is being issued by the Royal Collection and "reflects the pomp and pageantry of the Coronation procession; the Coat of Arms is from the heraldic bearings of the coaches. The border decoration is taken from the silk damask banners of the State Trumpets which heralded the moment of crowning at Westminster Abbey."

The Mail carries an extraordinary story today about Dame Helen Mirren granting the dying wish of a ten-year-old boy by dressing up as the Queen and having him round for tea.

Do click here to read the Mail's full story about how Mirren stepped in after cancer victim Oliver Burton was told the Queen would not be able to meet him at Buckingham Palace.

Dame Helen invited Oliver to see her West End show The Audience in which she plays the Queen and then invited Oliver and mum Catherine Browne backstage where she introduced him to her corgis and her butler served tea. She even knighted the boy, which seems like the best use of a royal honour we have ever heard of.

Prince Harry today made his first appearance since returning form his triumphal tour of the US, an unscheduled 'private' fly-by of the garden that is being created as part of the Chelsea Flower Show with his support for the Sentebale charity.

The Prince, who was wearing a yellow high-viz vest and a baseball cap, was shown around the B&Q Sentebale garden this morning, where he spoke with its designer Jinny Blom for several minutes.

The Prince reportedly first saw the designs while working with the RAF in Afghanistan.

Well, it probably had to happen.

A woman from Toronto with 'an unhealthy attraction' to Prince Harry was arrested for trespassing at the Greenwich Polo Club during Prince Harry's visit and benefit polo match there on Wednesday. She has been locked up and is apparently unable to post a thousand-buck bond.

Police suggested she was a known stalker of the Prince, saying that 'international law enforcement agencies' had issued advisories 'to be watchful for her'.

Pippa Middleton attended a London party for the UK edition of Vanity Fair on Tuesday night.

As her brother in law, Prince Harry, was enjoying a succesful week of high-profile engagements in the US, the  29-year-old party planner attended the VF event at Mayfair restaurant 34 Grosvenor Square, dressed simply in a short black skirt and white shirt but with eye-catching polkadot shoes.

Other guests included Tom Ford and Jemima Khan, European editor-at-large of the magazine.

One of the most devoutly sought goals for which the Brits travel to the United States is rehabilitation. For some, that really does mean a 28-day program at the Meadows, but for British celebrities old and new, from Victoria Beckham to Piers Morgan to PG Wodehouse, America offers something even more alluring: a chance to clean up one’s image in a country that, in comparison to their homeland, is proud of allowing reinvention and fresh starts.

One can now add the name of Prince Harry to the list of Brits comprehensively rehabilitated in the generous embrace of the United States. For to describe Harry’s tour of the U.S. as an unqualified success would be mean-spirited. The truth is, the past week has been a transformative one for the third in line to the throne, and nothing short of a triumph.

It certainly seems hard to believe that the handsome young man pictured in the last few days confidently standing alongside a blushing Michelle Obama and praising the "fantastic American spirit" that saw the rebuilding of those parts of New Jersey obliterated by superstorm Sandy is the same person who, just nine months ago, allowed himself to be photographed in the nude playing strip billiards in a hotel room with some girls he had met a few hours earlier downstairs in a Vegas casino.

The adolescence and early manhood of the most reviled monarch in recent British history, Edward VIII—the abdicator who married Wallis Simpson and threw the monarchy into a near-fatal tailspin in 1936—has been oft mined by writers and historians.

So hated was David Windsor (his birth name) by an entire generation of establishment writers and propagandists determined to expose every flaw in his character that it seems hard to believe that any truly new information could be found about the prince’s misspent youth. And while the story of his affair with Marguerite “Maggie” Meller, a famous French courtesan, is not exactly unknown, Andrew Rose, a retired judge, does unearth some extraordinary details in his new, meticulously researched, and highly evocative new book. Furthermore, he makes the extraordinary claim that Meller used a cache of erotic letters written to her by the young prince years earlier to “fix” her 1923 Old Bailey trial in which she was acquitted of murdering her billionaire husband despite clear evidence to the contrary.

Edward is portrayed by Rose as a withdrawn young man, ill at ease in company. “Despite a rough-house naval education, including considerable periods at sea which should have been a character-forming experience, the prince was physically and emotionally a late developer. Today he would be thought of as something of a ‘nerd,’” writes Rose.

Maybe Harry twisted their arms.

The foudation controlled by William, Kate and Harry is donating £100,000 to Walking With The Wounded's 2013 South Pole Allied Challenge. Harry, the expedition patron, announced last month that he will join the gruelling 210-mile trek across Antarctica this winter.

Prince Harry, who is currently making injured troops the focus of his week-long US tour, will also join the soldiers as they trek in temperatures of minus 45C.

Prince Harry has a day out of the public eye today as he travels back to the East Coast so allow us to entertain you with these pictures taken yesterday of the third in line to the throne forming part of an ambitious cheer-leading display with cadets at the US Air Force Academy in Colorado.

The Prince got down on all fours to help form a three-tier pyramid with the team's mascot, dressed as a big blue bird, forming the apex.

The Mail on Sunday in the UK is claiming to have landed possibly the only piece of royal news that could tear the Royalist away from Harry in Colorado: Kate's due date.

And the Mail is claiming that the date Kate has been given is Saturday, July 13.

The Royalist has been told by friends of the Royals that Kate's due date is at the beginning of July.

The Mail's source, described as "a friend of the pair" told the paper: "Some of Kate and William’s closest pals were at a barbecue hosted by a family friend of the Royals recently. They were all discussing the fact that Kate’s baby is due to be born on July 13. Everyone was very excited."

At least Prince Harry was probably politer than his grandfather.

But the young Prince waded into his first controversy of his US tour when he reportedly echoed Prince Philip's views on the unsightliness of wind farms at the reception in Denver he attended last night where he met Missy Franklin.

According to a report in The Daily Telegraph today, Harry told  Susan Reilly, chief executive officer of Renewable Energy Systems Americas, that he was concerned about the 'visual impact' of the green energy devices. I love the way the royals go straight to the top.
