It’s a world away from the relationship described in Prince Harry’s new memoir Spare in which he is highly critical of William and evendetails a violent outburst involving the brothers in the kitchen of the Nottingham Cottage at Kensington Palace in 2019. Nicky Philipps, who would go on to paint Queen Elizabeth II, was commissioned by London’s National Portrait Gallery to paint the princes in their full military dress in 2009, describing how they were “great fun to be with” during the sittings together....

Five months later, Maud had finally recovered, though a combination of “time, therapy, medication and a strong-willed personality,” her sister says. Soon afterward, Taije Silverman, an editor at William Morrow, was looking for a young editor to work on a low-budget project, a collection of mostly original essays on depression. She asked Nell, a books editor at Self magazine. “It was such a strange and good coincidence because it seemed wonderful to be asked to write about something that had been so harrowing,” Casey says....

“There’s a lot of uncertainty right now, and I think we’re going to see a lot of good stories come out, but also a lot of challenges,” said Becky DePodwin, a meteorologist and emergency management specialist at AccuWeather. “I think people need to go in with the recognition that this is not going to be a normal season.” The United States is grappling with the world’s largest outbreak of the virus, and more than 337,971 people tested positive as of Monday....

Cuomo left the Albany office in August amid a scandal, much like his predecessors. Now, the Democrat is facing a criminal complaint about sexual misconduct. And across the country, a number of other governors have faced criminal charges. Since the 1990s, 11 U.S. governors have been convicted of federal corruption offenses, in particular, violations to the Hobbs Act, RICO, the Travel Act, mail or wire fraud, or through establishing a conspiracy to defraud the U....

Just nine days ago, the Kansas City Royals were coming off a thrilling comeback win over the Baltimore Orioles and were in search of their third straight win. With the Chicago White Sox coming to town, at least two out of three wins seemed to be a lock. In the series opener, the Royals quickly jumped out to a 5-0 first-inning lead and they appeared primed to climb up to two wins over ....

The U.S. is working to rapidly evacuate its remaining diplomats and others in Kabul as the U.S.-backed government there collapsed on Sunday. Afghan President Ashraf Ghani fled the country, and Taliban forces have reportedly been firing on Kabul’s airport. While many lawmakers have criticized the decision of Trump to sign a February 2020 peace deal and withdrawal agreement with the Taliban, as well as Biden for following through with the withdrawal, Rose praised their controversial decisions....

The Sky Blues wrapped up the A-League premiership last month but will first be presented with the trophy on Saturday after their home game against Newcastle Jets. It is the second time Arnold has won the trophy - he also lifted the Premier’s Plate in 2011-12 with Central Coast Mariners - and the former Socceroos striker has long been an advocate of the more traditional title compared to Australia’s penchant for a finals system....

Schwarzenegger is one of the few prominent Republicans to publicly criticize Trump. He issued a new broadside, after the president said progressive Democratic congresswomen should leave the country. Without mentioning them by name, Trump’s tweets aimed at Reps. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.), Rashida Tlaib (D-Mich.), Ayanna Pressley (D-Mass.) and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) stated how they should “go back and help fix the totally broken and crime infested places from which they came....

So what does the general Manchester United fan or Chelsea fan say? “It’s too early in the season”, “Just six games have been played”, “There is a long way to go” – Yeah, when the club is not performing as per expectations, one can always draw contentment from such pragmatic reasoning. Moreover, it does not do good to the pride of the club for a fan to declare that Arsenal have played better than them this season....

Whilst it is true that Olivier Giroud was brought in to replace the Dutchman on the opposing side, the truth is that the two aren’t similar in the least bit. The sight of Giroud wasting his chances and looking at the sky has become a sight that has become worryingly common for Arsenal fans. Against United, the Frenchman once again did just that, as he had at least four presentable opportunities and was unable to take any of them....

Arsenal opened proceedings in the 8th minute as David Luiz scored his first goal for the club as he headed home a Nicolas Pepe corner. The scoreline would stay the same until the 90th minute in a match void of quality from both sides. Neither side seemed to take the game by the scruff of the neck, only mustering up four shots on target between them. Here are five talking points from Arsenal’s 1-0 win over Bournemouth....

The 23-year-old has revealed he played several instruments as a youngster, from the recorder and violin to the drums and the piano. However, Oxlade-Chamberlain says he soon stopped because it wasn’t “cool” to play music during one of his schools, instead deciding to put all of his attention into football.

Judging from their displays in the last few seasons, Arsenal are not supposed to dominate like this on a consistent basis. But that is exactly what Arsène Wenger’s boys, nay, not boys, men have done and given Wenger the perfect anniversary gift as he completed 17 long years in charge of Arsenal Football Club. Let’s not take anything away from this win. Napoli are second in the Serie A table and in top form this season under new boss Rafa Benitez....

Granit Xhaka has worn the armband in the early weeks of the 2019-20 season with head coach Unai Emery yet to confirm a permanent skipper. Last season he named a group of five captains including Xhaka and Mesut Ozil but three of them - Laurent Koscielny, Petr Cech and Aaron Ramsey - have since left Arsenal. “We had a vote the other week, so we’ll see what happens and see who gets named,” defender Holding told reporters after Tuesday’s 5-0 EFL Cup win against Nottingham Forest....

The French hitman is in hot demand after his brilliant season under Alan Pardew at Newcastle. The QPR striker was on loan at the Tyneside club for the 2013/14 season and his lethal form has attracted the attention of Arsenal and Liverpool, who are pursuing Remy. Despite QPR’s promotion to the Premier League, Remy is keen to move to a bigger club and is already planning a move elsewhere this summer with a number of clubs keeping tabs on him....

Arsenal play Stoke City in today’s Premier League fixture. A big match as there have been 2 draws, 2 Arsenal wins and 1 Stoke win in the past 5 meetings. With Gibbs injured and Santos not really in form, Arsenal’s new recruit, Nacho Monreal is expected to make his debut. January has been bad for the Gunners as they could get just one win from five Premier League games. Their last game with Liverpool ended 2-2....

The Gunners will host their city rivals in the Premier League in their first match post the international break. While some of their players will be returning from international duty, some players missed first-team training on Tuesday (via Football.London). Left-back Oleksandr Zinchenko missed training as he is recovering from a calf injury. He also missed Arsenal’s final match before the international break against Brentford and wasn’t part of the Ukraine squad for their UEFA Nations League fixtures....

The Blues were unable to land Roma striker Dzeko and have now shaken hands on a £15 million fee plus incentives for the France international. The move will enable Michy Batshuayi to leave Stamford Bridge on loan, with Borussia Dortmund linked witht the Belgian. Lucas travels to London complete Spurs move Paris Saint-Germain winger Lucas Moura is travelling to London to complete a £25 million move to Tottenham, Goal understands....

The Dutchman recently admitted that he is flattered to be linked with clubs like Manchester United and Chelsea, as per Express Sport. Dalot became the first-choice right-back for the Red Devils last season ahead of Aaron Wan-Bissaka when Ralf Rangnick was in charge. He has managed to keep his place under new boss Erik Ten Hag, starting every game so far this campaign. However, Arsenal legend Kevin Campbell has insisted that Dumfries would be an upgrade on the Portuguese international....
