Meghan Markle and Prince Harry Meet Veteran Families During Australia Tour

Meghan Markle and Prince Harry met with veteran families at the Australian National Veterans’ Art Museum in Melbourne on Tuesday, April 14

NEED TO KNOW

• The Duke and Duchess of Sussex are slated to attend both public and private events during their visit to the continent

• Their last visit to Australia, in 2018, was part of an official royal tour

Meghan MarkleandPrince Harryended the first day oftheir Australia tourwith a meaningful event.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex met with veteran families at the Australian National Veterans’ Art Museum in Melbourne on the evening of Tuesday, April 14 (local time).

In keeping with the couple's often-playful approach to public events, during the visit they put on aprons to take part in a pottery class with the children of veterans, with Harry, 41, creating a one-winged bird.

Meghan, 44, constructed a clay ostrich during the pottery session with the children of veterans, known as “doves” by the museum. She told children at the class, “There’s an ostrich farm actually not far from our home."

When a young girl at the class asked her about birds, Meghan said, “My husband will know, my husband knows everything about birds.”

Meanwhile, Harry explained of his creation, “It’s a one-winged kookaburra, it’s very rare,” PA Media reported.

The prince then checked out an installation, created by Kat Rae and Kelly Manning, which was made of polystyrene, shredded paper and cable ties, that spelt out “curiosity."

The couple were surrounded by members of the media wanting to speak to them as they left the museum on the first day of their packed visit to Australia.

Harry and Meghan had changed into matching olive green outfits for the outing, with the duchess wearing a mock neck sleeveless sweater by Australian brand P Johnson, which she teamed with a skirt and bomber jacket by fellow Australian brand St. Agni and Aquazzura shoes.

The museum is a veteran-led charity and cultural institution set up to support the wellbeing of current and former Australian military personnel and their families through the arts.

Founded in 2013 by Tanja Johnston, it was established from the “need for innovation and community engagement to address the declining state of veterans wellbeing," and uses exhibitions, creative programs and public engagement to create a platform for veterans to share their stories and experiences.

Prince Harry is a former captain in the British Army and served in the military from 2005 to 2015. He continues to support service personnel and veterans through theInvictus Games, an international adaptive sports contest he helped create in 2014.

Harry and Meghan have regularly made visits with military families, including a reception for military families and the widow association during their 2024 visit to Nigeria and anunder-the-radar outingin San Diego the year prior.

In their 2022 Netflix docuseries, Prince Harryopened up about his life in the military, saying that decade "gave me the lived experience that other members of my family wouldn't have had."

"Twotours in Afghanistan, flying Apache helicopters on a military base, means that you grow up pretty fast. Jeez, I went to war twice," he added in episode three.

In the same episode, Harry and Meghanvisited McGuire Air Force Basein New Jersey in honor of Veterans Day in 2021.

"I'm watching my husband over there — you see how much joy it brings him to be back on a base, and he immediately goes back into military banter," the Duchess of Sussex said.

Meghan also stepped out for a solo event at a women's shelter in Melbourne in the afternoon.

During their trip, Prince Harry and Meghan are expected to attend a variety of other public and private engagements,including the Her Best Life podcast's "girls weekend" retreatin Sydney and the InterEdge Psychosocial Safety Summit in Melbourne, where Harry willserve as a keynote speaker on workplace mental health.

The couple's last trip to Australia came in October 2018 — just a few months after their May 2018 wedding — when they embarked on a 16-day royal tour. The coupleannounced Meghan's pregnancywith their first child, Prince Archie, on that tour.

Britney Spears checks into rehab after DUI arrest

Britney Spearshas entered rehab following her arreston suspicion of driving under the influence.

The 44-year-old popstar "has voluntarily checked herself into a treatment facility," a representative for Spears confirmed to USA TODAY on April 12.

The news was first reported by theCelebrity Intelligence newsletter.

The move comes a month after she was arrested March 4 outside of Los Angeles County. A California Highway Patrol spokesperson told USA TODAY on March 6 that Spears was suspected of driving under the influence of alcohol and drugs, as she allegedly showed "signs of impairment and submitted to a series of field sobriety tests."

Spears was driving a black BMW 430i "erratically" at high speeds on the highway in Ventura County, according to the CHP. She is due for a court appearance on May 4.

Spears charmed Jay Leno in 2003 with a look at her new tattoo.

The doc got fans and celebrities once again talking about the past media treatment of her and the years-long conservatorship that controlled her finances and other important life decisions. As the conservatorship battle continued, more interest in Spears' case launched more documentaries to air from Netflix and CNN. 

" style="max-width:100%; height:auto; border-radius:6px; margin:10px 0;" loading="lazy" /> Britney's 13-year, state-imposed guardianship incited a fan-led #FreeBritney movement. Here, supporters gather outside the County Courthouse in Los Angeles during a hearing in her case on June 23, 2021.

She was freed from the conservatorship on Nov. 12, 2021. The star celebrated the judge's decision on Instagram, writing: "I think I’m gonna cry the rest of the day !!!! Best day ever … praise the Lord … can I get an Amen." She has since spoken out several times on Instagram about alleged mistreatment she suffered under her conservatorship by her family members.

‘A man of peace’: Pope Leo embarks on a marathon visit to Africa

On Monday, Pope Leo XIV’s is setting off on a long Africa trip, the first of his papacy to bear a clear personal stamp.

Between April 13-23, the pope will travel to four countries, crisscrossing a continent pivotal to the 21st-century church he leads. Christian-Muslim relations will be high on his agenda.

It’s a trip that comes as the first American pope is increasinglyspeaking outagainst the current conflict in the Middle East, saying God can’t be used to justify war, while Pete Hegseth, the US defense secretary, frames the US war effort as divinely supported. Leo’s decision to visit Algeria, a Muslim-majority nation, and tackle inter-faith relations also points to him becoming a diplomatic counterweight to the Trump administration and its military intervention in Iran.

Trump criticized the pope in a post on Truth Social overnight ahead of Leo’s trip, describing the pontiff as “terrible for Foreign Policy” and saying that “I don’t want a Pope who thinks it’s OK for Iran to have a Nuclear Weapon.”

Africa is a continent where the Catholic Church is growing, and where the church frequently plays an influential role in civil society through education and healthcare and helping to mediate in conflicts. According to Vatican statistics, Catholics on the continent now make up around 20% of believers worldwide.

Leo XIV, who spent years as a missionary in the global south, knows Africa well. And as pope, he has appointed priests from Nigeria to senior positions in the Vatican.

His itinerary includes Algeria, Cameroon, Angola and Equatorial Guinea and will see him take 18 flights, including two by helicopter, and cover 11,185 miles, or around 18,000 kilometers. That schedule is likely to be tough even for a pope who, at 70, is relatively young and known to take regular exercise.

While the countries he is visiting are diverse, the itinerary and his plans while there point to a consistent theme of Leo as bridge builder and reconciler.

“Pope Leo’s visit to Africa will offer him the unique opportunity to listen to African Catholics and learn first-hand about the realities of their daily life,” said the Reverend Agbonkhianmeghe Orobator, a Jesuit priest from Nigeria who led his religious order’s community across Africa between 2017-2023 and is now based at Santa Clara University in Berkeley, California.

Algeria welcoming ‘one of its own sons’

Leo will begin his marathon Africa visit in Algeria, becoming the first pope to set foot in the country. Mistrust of western culture and Christianity is still high in Algeria, much of it associated with the past French colonial presence, and the country is home to only a tiny Catholic population of around 8,000. Christians there frequently face difficulties.

The pope’s presence should offer a boost to the Algerian Catholic Church, known for working closely with its Muslim counterparts in the country, while highlighting Algeria’s ancient Christian roots.

“(In Algeria) Christianity still carries memories of an oppressive past,” the Reverend Martin McGee, a Benedictine monk and expert on Christian-Muslim relations in Algeria, told CNN.

“Pope Leo will also be seeking to strengthen Christian-Muslim relationships. Since the independence of the country from France in 1962, the tiny remnant of the Catholic Church in Algeria has consistently worked at breaking down barriers between Christian and Muslim believers,” he added.

Bishop Diego Sarrió Cucarella, who leads the diocese of Laghouat in Algeria, told CNN the church in the country is not one of “numbers or visibility” but a “church of presence – unarmed and disarming.”

“In a world often marked by fear or misunderstanding between religions and cultures, our experience here suggests that another path is possible,” he said. “Algerian society has a strong sense of hospitality, and many will recognize in him (the pope) not a foreign leader, but a man of peace – a brother seeking peace with the brethren.”

Leo will also make a very poignant pilgrimage in Algeria by taking a day trip to the city of Annaba, where Saint Augustine of Hippo served as a bishop in the late fourth and early fifth centuries. St Augustine, one of Christianity’s most influential figures, is the inspiration for the religious order of the Augustinians, of which Leo is a member and former leader.

Michel Guillaud, the Bishop of Constantine and Hippo, said Leo had visited Algeria twice before his election as pope, and that the Augustine link provides “a sense of kinship between this pope and the Algerian people” in a country that is “a bridge” between the African continent, the Arab-Muslim world and the “other shores of the Mediterranean world.”

“It is as if Algeria were welcoming one of its own sons, since he is ‘a son of Augustine,’” he told CNN.

A growing, youthful church

The other African countries Leo will visit have large and growing Catholic populations. During his trip, he will see the vibrant church up close, celebrating open-air Masses and visiting nursing homes, a prison, university campuses and a psychiatric hospital. A Vatican spokesman said “600,000 faithful” are expected to take part in a Mass presided by Leo in a carpark adjacent to the Japoma Stadium in Douala, Cameroon.

While in Cameroon, Leo will focus on a message of reconciliation in a country where an English-speaking minority has protested against perceived discrimination by the Francophone government. The pope will go to Bamenda, the largest Anglophone city in the country, to take part in a peace meeting. The meeting will be attended by an internally displaced family, the traditional leader of the Mankon people, which is a prominent ethnic group in the region, a Catholic nun, an Imam and other church leaders.

Bamenda has been at the center of a long-running conflict between government forces and Anglophone separatists, which has killed thousands since 2017, including civilians.

“Much of the world pays little or no attention to the conflict and violence that have crippled socioeconomic life and caused intolerable human casualties in the northwestern and southwestern anglophone parts of Cameroon. His visit to Bamenda is particularly poignant,” said Orobator at Santa Clara University.

“Leo is perhaps the only religious leader with the soft power to convene the belligerent and opposing forces to come to the table of dialogue and seek just peace. It will be a unique occasion for him to remind Cameroonians that there are alternatives pathways to conflict and violence.”

Foreign visits offer the pope a chance to address the country’s leadership and shine a spotlight on certain issues. While in Angola, Leo will fly to the city of Saurimo, the heart of the country’s controversial diamond industry, where he’ll celebrate an open-air Mass.

While the diamond industry is a major contributor to the economy, concerns have been raised about its effect on the environment and the treatment of miners. During his pontificate Leo has talked about the importance of protecting the planet, so environmental stewardship could be a topic he addresses while in Angola and elsewhere in Africa.

“By modeling peace as a ‘humble and disarming’ force, the pope not only draws global attention to the region’s suffering but also positions the African Church as a trusted mediator for reconciliation,” said Jaisy A. Joseph, a theologian at Villanova University, Pope Leo’s alma mater.

Missionary pope

Leo’s Africa trip will see him outside of the Vatican for the longest time since his election, and the constant travel in the country has echoes of his time as a missionary and bishop in Latin America.

It is fitting that he’ll mark the first anniversary of the death of his predecessor, Pope Francis, on April 21 in Equatorial Guinea, a small country with a mainly Catholic population and where around 70% live in poverty. Leo’s visit to the country – the first papal trip since 1982 – will see him put into action Francis’ vision of a church that goes out to the margins, serving the poorest.

The pope’s jam-packed schedule in Equatorial Guinea includes a visit to a prison and an oceanfront memorial for the victims of a series of explosions in 2021 at a military barracks. President Teodoro Obiang and his government said the blasts were the result of “negligence” and a fire begun by farmers nearby, but human rights groups have called for an independent inquiry into the explosions.

From the moment of his election, Leo has sought to offer a leadership that breaks down divisions. His whirlwind visit to Africa will seek to put that vision into action on the continent.

‘RHOBH’ Star Rachel Zoe Slammed By Ex Rodger Berman’s Girlfriend: ‘Leave Me the F*** Alone’

Rodger Berman’s girlfriend,Bree Jacoby, fired back at his ex-wife,Rachel Zoe, for shading her onThe Real Housewives of Beverly Hillsseason 15.

“Leave me the f*** alone… What’s so insane?” Bree, 36, unleashed in a series ofInstagram Storieson Friday, April 10. “You did not want to be married and said it yourself you wish you left 7 years ago. You’re acting like a jealous woman. Get a new story line. I’m not going anywhere. So get used to it.”

Bree — who is a businesswoman and a stylist — shared a clip from a recentRHOBHepisode where Rachel complained to costarDorit Kemsleyabout her ex-husband declaring his love for his new girlfriend on her birthday via Instagram. Rachel suggested Rodger was trying to deliberately irritate her because the two women’s birthdays are days apart and both are stylists.

“Since so many of my friends reached out I want to set the record [straight],” Bree explained via Instagram on Friday. “My birthday is sept 2 (1 day after her) not 3. We have been dating for almost 2 years. I’m actually a business woman who happens to style – not a celebrity stylist. But you do you girl. Respect.”

How Rachel Zoe Reacted to Ex Rodger Berman Dating Bree Jacoby: ‘They Have Both Moved On’

Bree claimed that she met Rachel and Rodger’s two children — sons Skyler, 14, and Kaius, 12 — “a year after dating” their dad. She then dismissively called Rachel “a great actor” but insisted she was “sick of her storyline.”

“I actually don’t care about anything other than the kids and my relationship. I wish her the best and to find love and happiness,” Bree wrote. “I would be a modern family. But she can’t do it. It’s very sad. But that’s her own issue. We are better than the drama. But I’m really getting tired of this portrayal of him and of me. It’s not true. Rodger is an incredible father might I add. And an incredible boyfriend. Best human.”

In a later post, Bree encouraged other people to send her messages to Rachel since theReal Housewives of Beverly Hillscast member apparently “blocked” her once she started seeing Rodger.

“The issue is that she takes zero accountability for her own behavior and is absolutely awful to me (calls me trash),” she concluded. “Bad press is good press so keep talking. But if you’re gonna talk. At least be a woman and talk to me direct. Like I said – I ain’t going anywhere. See ya at the bar mitzvah.”

Us Weeklyhas reached out to Zoe’s representative for comment.

Rachel and Rodger were married for 26 years before theRachel Zoe Projectstar announced theirplans to divorcein September 2024.

“After 33 years together and 26 years married, Rodger and I have come to the mutual decision to end our marriage,” Rachel confirmed via Instagram at the time. “We are incredibly proud of the loving family we have created and our countless memories together.”

Rache’s statement continued, “Our number one priority has been and will always be our children. We are committed to coparent our boys and to continue to work together within the many businesses we share. We ask for privacy during this time as we navigate this new chapter.”

Rachel Zoe Says She Doesn’t ‘Need a Man’ After Divorce, But Is Open to Getting Married Again

Usreportedin July 2025 that theRHOBHnewbie officially filed for divorce from Roger, citing “irreconcilable differences” as the reason for their split. Zoe subsequently revealed onWatch What Happens With Andy Cohenin February that she was hopeful of reaching a divorce settlement “soon.”

Asked about Rodger’s reaction to her discussing their split onRHOBH, Zoe admitted, “He’s not thrilled. But I also think people are telling him, his friends or whatever, look, anything that I said is really how I felt in the moment.”

“And things were happening in real time this summer, and there’s a lot I don’t share,” she added.

The Real Housewives of Beverly Hillsseason 15 airs Thursdays on Bravo. Old episodes are available via Peacock.

Oh, well, the beat goes on forMick Fleetwood, who has gotten married for the fifth time.

It's not second hand news, either. The famed drummer posted photos of him and his new wife, Elizabeth Jordan, onInstagramon March 28, celebrating their honeymoon in the South Pacific. The trio of pictures shows the couple first in fun, formal attire kissing behind Fleetwood's hat, then smooching along the water – a third image shows Fleetwood in the water.

In a subsequent and most recent video, posted April 9 onthe social media site, Fleetwood says he is in Tahiti, where he's on the beach rocking out on what appears to be a eight-string ukulele and playing a drum.

Fleetwood Mac defined a generation with its music, thanks to classic anthems like "Go Your Own Way," "Dreams" and more. The Grammy-winning group, whose best-known lineup included Mick Fleetwood, Christine McVie, Stevie Nicks, Lindsey Buckingham and John McVie, has reportedly sold more than 120 million records worldwide.
