Welcome Royal Community! Thanks for tuning into episode 125 of keeping it with the Windsors Royal podcast about the British Royal Family.

And, two pieces of Royal News for you this week including: 
 
The Sovereign Grant 2023 was released this week which showed that British taxpayers individually paid £1.29 to fund the Royals. We share our thoughts but what do you think, Royal community? Are the British Royal Family good value for money? 
 
We break down the facts and figures from the report and explain how the Royals are funded and whether the Royal Family are good value for money?
 
We are also talking about all of the happenings during the King and the Queens Scottish Thanksgiving and Dedication Service in Edinburgh this week - or as we are calling it - ‘The Scottish Coronation’. 
 
We delve into the details surrounding the traditions, history and grandeur of  the Scottish Crown Jewels - the honours of Scotland, and the ceremony itself.

What a brilliant week we have had with the pomp and pageantry of Trooping The Colour to mark The King’s birthday and The Order of The Garter Service and Procession at Windsor Castle.
In today's Royal Podcast episode, we are chatting about the controversy surrounding Catherine’s outfit choices - especially surrounding her Order of the Garter Outfit, which was very similar to one she already owns. We are asking the questions: 
 
Are Catherine’s outfits too similar? 
Should Catherine re-wear a similar outfit? 
Is Catherine wasting money on outfits that are very similar?
Should The Princess of Wales be buying whatever she wants? 
We are also keeping you up-to-date with the this week’s Royal engagements during our Royal Round-up including: 
 
The King’s upcoming appearance in a BBC documentary and portrait commission for The Royal Collection celebrating the Windrush Generation
Queen Camilla is appointed Order of the Thistle and attend the naming ceremony of the amazing Shire horse, Juno (Michelle was very happy)
The Prince of Wales announces a new social housing project for The Duchy of Cornwall
The Duchess of Edinburgh is invested as Grand President of St John’s Ambulance
The Princess of Wales opens the National Gallery after a 3 year refurbishment 
The Duchess of Gloucester celebrates her 77th birthday
Plus so much more…

With King Charles III Coronation at Westminster Abbey behind us, we look to the future for our new Carolean Era. 
 
Michelle is on holiday so here is a pre-recorded episode talking about the future of King Charles’s reign and what we think of the changes and possible issues. 
 
We discuss the tough questions that come along with a brand new Monarch such as: 
 
How will the British Royal Family fare with King Charles at the helm?
What changes with King Charles make now he is Monarch? 
What role will Queen Camilla take in the future of the Monarchy?
What about the slim down Monarchy? 
Who is actually left to carry out Royal duties? 
Will Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie become working Royals?
Is the Monarchy losing favour with the people? 
Will the anti-monarchists win?

About Michelle & Rachael

We love talking about the Royals and would spend hours talking about engagements, fashion, Royal history, and visiting Royal Palaces.

Our only problem?

We couldn't find a space that spoke from the Royal fan's point of view online (that wasn't run by a big news corporation).

So, after a convo during the boredom of a second lockdown in March 2021, and the upcoming Oprah interview, we decided to give it a go.

Our first episode aired on the 12th of March 2021. And the podcast was born.

It turns out that our very first episode would also be one of our most listened-to - yikes!

We branched out in November 2021 with a YouTube channel and Instagram page dedicated to the British Royal Family.

We have reached over 280,000 downloads, 75,000 views on YouTube, and 14,000 followers on Instagram.

And that's all thanks to you - our Royal Community. 

In August 2022, we launched our VIP Royal Community over on Kofi. A place to go even deeper and chat with a like-minded community daily. 

We love building connections and starting conversations about the Royals with people all over the world. 

Thank you for allowing us to be here and keep doing what we love.
