++ROYAL WATCH++

HOW lovely that Prince William surprised passers-by after he took to the streets incognito as a Big Issue seller to highlight homelessness, one of Diana’s cherished causes. Although in his pristine jeans and ironed shirt, he wouldn’t have fooled me. And my dear friend Mark, who’s been selling the magazine for decades, says he wouldn’t be able to hide his can of Strongbow inside that tidy red jacket.

A REPORT finds the gift dads most want on Father’s Day next Sunday is a call from their child. That’ll fall on deaf ears for Meghan Markle, who hasn’t spoken to her father since before she married Prince Harry in 2018, nor even let him set eyes on his two grandchildren. AFTER being almost written out of the Jubilee celebrations, the Sussexes were able to lick their wounds on their private jet. The return trip emitted nearly 30 times the annual carbon each of us is allowed by the Paris Climate Agreement. Just saying.
