American Olympic gold medalist and PWHL star Kendall Coyne Schofield has announced that she is pregnant with her second child.
The 34-year-old, who married former NFL offensive lineman and Super Bowl champion Michael Schofield in 2018, shared the news on social media.
The announcement sheds light on Coyne Schofield's absence from the ice on Wednesday night, when Team USA faced off against Team Canada in Windsor, Ont. While named to the national team's fall training camp rosters, Coyne Schofield, a staple of the U.S. program since 2011, did not dress for the game.
A four-time Olympian, Coyne Schofield won her second gold medal at the Milan Cortina Winter Games in February. She has won seven IIHF Women's World Championships and established herself as one of the foundational figures in women's professional hockey and a key player in the creation of the PWHL.
Coyne Schofield gave birth to her first child, son Drew, in July 2023. Six months later, she was back on the ice for the PWHL's inaugural season in January 2024 as captain of the league's Minnesota franchise. The team won the first Walter Cup championship, and then another in 2025. Individually, Coyne Schofield has been one of the very best players in the PWHL over the last three seasons. Only Canadian captain Marie-Philip Poulin and teammate Taylor Fox (née Heise) have scored more career points than Coyne Schofield's 63 career points in 77 games, all scored with the Minnesota Frost since the PWHL's inaugural season in 2024.

On her wedding day in 2018, Meghan Markle turned heads wearing Queen Mary's iconic Diamond Bandeau tiara. However, as the world watched her marry Prince Harry, the glittering heirloom was already at the centre of a behind-the-scenes row.
In the run-up to the ceremony at St George's Chapel in Windsor, the tiara caused a clash between the Prince, his bride, and his grandmother, Queen Elizabeth II, with recollections varying about the dispute.
There were different versions about the dispute (@ Getty Images)
Royal author Robert Hardman detailed the row in his new book, Queen Elizabeth II: In Private. In Public. The Inside Story, serialised in the Daily Mail in April 2026. He gave new details about the clash, claiming that tensions began when the late Queen hoped to "bond" with Meghan by offering her a tiara from her royal collection – only for the bride-to-be to show up with Prince Harry.
Hardman writes: "Another pre-wedding row, which would continue to create headlines years after the wedding, concerned Meghan's choice of tiara. The Queen much enjoyed offering a piece from her own tiara collection to a royal bride, when required."

Ex-Prince Andrew reportedly does not have that much of a miserable life while in exile. The former Duke of York lost all his royal ******* les after the news of his scandalous past in relation to the Jeffrey Epstein case. The former Prince also had to leave his long-time residence, the Royal Lodge, within Windsor Great Park, and move to the Sandringham Estate in Norfolk. The new report came amid news about Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor challenging the British police warrants used to search two of his properties.
Ex-Prince Andrew has reportedly been "having a very nice time" while in exile in the middle of his ongoing scandal. As reported by The Royal Observer, a source made this claim about the former Duke of York to The Times.
The former Prince has been staying at the Marsh Farm on the Sandringham Estate in Norfolk after he had to leave his long-time residence, the Royal Lodge. According to the report, while moving away from a mansion with thirty rooms to a house with five bedrooms might appear to be a big loss, Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor has not completely lost his "charmed lifestyle."
Furthermore, per the news outlet, the insider told The Times that Ex-Prince Andrew "goes out, he goes off shooting with friends, he sees his old chums who are very loyal to him." According to the insider, the former Duke of York had not been "sitting around feeling sorry for himself any more." In the meantime, the former Prince's recent decision to take legal action against Thames Valley Police has caused quite the buzz among royal watchers.
Meanwhile, the publication further reported that the source also said to The Times that "There appears to have been a 'something must be done' moment where his lawyers, to appease him, will have said 'Don't worry, sir, we will handle it.'" This legal move came after the former Duke of York's arrest in February on suspicion of misconduct in public office.

Princess Eugenie's close ties with Meghan Markle have reportedly raised concerns that she could potentially be a "double agent." The daughter of Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor and Sarah Ferguson is known to be close to both the Waleses and the Sussexes. Hence, sources claim that some palace insiders believe she cannot keep one foot in both camps and may eventually have to choose a side.
Princess Eugenie may need to decide whether she is on Meghan Markle's side or not. The 36-year-old shares a good bond with Meghan and Prince Harry, as well as Prince William and Kate Middleton. Now that Meghan and Harry are back in Britain for an extended stay, people are eager to see how their bond with Eugenie develops.
However, a source told Woman's Day that Meghan and Eugenie haven't seen much of each other recently. The reason, according to the source, is that both women are extremely busy. However, the source noted that it could also be a conscious decision on Eugenie's part. They reportedly believe that she may want to distance herself from Meghan.
After the large-scale controversy last year, Eugenie's parents, Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor and Sarah Ferguson, were asked to leave the Royal Lodge. In fact, Andrew was even stripped of his ****** les. However, the ****** les of Eugenie and Princess Beatrice remained intact. Keeping that in mind, the source said that the growing consensus is that Eugenie wants to maintain friendly ties with the royals. If she is seen spending too much time with Meghan, it may not be a good look for her.
The source continued that palace insiders feel she "can't continue to have the best of both worlds." The insider added, "If she wants to stay on decent terms with the likes of William and Kate then she can't be seen as this double agent type of figure." Hence, they believe that she now needs to pick a side.

Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor is currently on a mission to take the police to court over alleged unlawful searches of his properties when he was arrested in February, as he remains holed up at his safe haven in Sandringham, provided by his brother, King Charles. But as the monarch owns the residence, he has the final say on everything, including Andrew's neighbours - who are now a herd of new cows.
A herd of rare British White Cows has arrived in a field right next to Andrew's current home, Marsh Farm. His Majesty has added the British Whites to his herd of 200 native heritage cattle, and they are happily grazing on grass yards away from the front door of Andrew's Norfolk residence.
British Whites are among the earliest recorded domestic cattle breeds in Britain and have roots dating back to Norfolk from the late 1700s.

The cows are ideal for conservation grazing on wet sites, making them ideal to live on the bog land around Andrew's house, where they will break down vegetation to encourage higher plant diversity and create bare ground to help birds find food.

Much of President Donald Trump's second term has focused on changes to the nation's capital.
But his ambitions to remake the physical architecture of the presidency transcend Washington: Trump wants to transform his West Palm Beach golf club into a presidential retreat modeled after Camp David.
Subscribe to The Post Most newsletter for the most important and interesting stories from The Washington Post.
The plan calls for a parcel of the private club to be designated a permanent, official sanctuary for foreign leaders and future U.S. presidents, designed to host international summits and house presidents when they take vacations in Florida, according to a proposal presented to Palm Beach County officials by Trump International Golf Club's legal counsel. Future presidents would also be offered comped memberships to the Trump club.
"Just as Camp David, Windsor Castle, or the Elysee Palace are known worldwide, so too will the Presidential Golf Course in Palm Beach County," Harvey Oyer, a lawyer representing the Trump course, wrote to the Palm Beach County Board of County Commissioners in a letter last month. Oyer asked the county, which owns the property the course is on, to provide a piece of the land to the federal government, and he promised Trump would pay for the construction of a presidential residence and facilities on that land.

As Christmas nears, the festive season has sparked a intriguing royal showdown. Meghan Markle's $148 advent calendar has been met with surprising competition from Buckingham Palace. The news comes days after Markle expanded her lifestyle brand, As Ever, with the limited-edition holiday countdown box inspired by her Montecito home.
Buckingham Palace has entered the Advent calendar market with a product priced far below Meghan Markle's $148 version.
As reported by the Daily Express, the calendar is available now from the Royal Collection Trust. It claims to "capture the magic of the festive season" across three royal residences, including Windsor Castle and the Palace of Holyroodhouse. Priced at only £12 ($15.87), the calendar offers 24 milk chocolates, the same count as Markle's luxury edition.
The artwork for the royal chocolate Advent calendar shows a richly adorned Christmas tree finished with a crown ornament, accompanied by a pair of Union Jacks. The illustration also features ceremonial guards who "stand watch at these iconic locations."
The Palace has also released an empty, fill-it-yourself version, which displays a winter illustration of its London residence on a white box. The design is fully customizable, allowing buyers to place their own treats behind each of the 24 doors.

Charles Spencer recalled an unusual memory involving ex-Prince Andrew in his Princess Diana memoir, Swan Song: Diana, My Sister. He described an incident at the Church of St. Mary Magdalene at Sandringham when Andrew was a teenager. The revelation comes as Andrew challenges the legality of police searches connected to his arrest.
According to the Express UK, in his memoir, Spencer recalled attending the Church of St. Mary Magdalene at Sandringham with Diana when Andrew was a teenager. He wrote that he and Diana saw Andrew raise his eyebrows with "theatrical exaggeration" and smirk after a priest referred to "the virgin's womb." "He was clearly greatly amused by a reference to that part of a woman's anatomy in such a solemn setting," Spencer added.
This is one of the many controversial revelations he made in his memoir, one of which also included a heated conversation between him and King Charles following Princess Diana's death. Spencer alleged that the monarch told him over the phone call that "We'll forget her [Diana] soon enough."
This shocking revelation comes amid Andrew pursuing a judicial review, asking the court whether the police lawfully searched his properties and made his arrest. This review is in relation to warrants used to search his home at Sandringham and his former home, Royal Lodge, in Windsor. By doing so, he has become the first royal to challenge a proceeding.
According to the BBC, Thames Valley Police said in a statement: "We are engaged in legal proceedings in relation to warrants previously obtained from the Central Criminal Court." Adding, "As these legal proceedings are currently ongoing, it would be inappropriate for us to comment further." Andrew was stripped of his remaining military affiliations and royal patronages in 2022. In 2025, he announced that he would no longer use his ****** les and honors, including the Duke of York ****** le.

Ex-Prince Andrew is reportedly fully "convinced" that he will emerge victorious in his legal case against the police. Multiple publications reported that the disgraced former Duke of York would be pursuing legal action against the Thames Valley Police over his headline-making February arrest. Notably, Andrew has demanded a judicial review of whether the circumstances of his arrest were lawful.
Ex-Prince Andrew is reportedly positive that he will win his legal case against the Thames Valley Police. For those unversed, the search warrants were issued in February over suspicions of misconduct in public office and allegations concerning his ties to convicted **** offender Jeffrey Epstein.
Now, eight months after the incident, Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor has reportedly pursued legal action against police who arrested him and searched his homes earlier this year. A private hearing regarding the case is scheduled for Thursday, October 8. Ahead of the hearing, the disgraced royal is "utterly convinced" he will win the legal battle (via The Sun).
A source alleged that the former Duke of York feels "upbeat" and "buoyant". Also, he is sure of the fact he will be "completely exonerated" one day. The insider added that Andrew views the judicial review as the "first step" towards clearing the allegations and restoring his reputation.
Notably, Andrew's older brother, King Charles, stripped his brother of royal **** les. The king also banished him from royal accommodation. The disgraced prince disappeared from royal life and stopped making official public appearances.

Prince William reportedly labeled Sarah Ferguson a "scheming wretch" and believes she has no place in the royal fold. The remark comes amid reports that Ferguson may be considering publishing a memoir about her married life with Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor and her experiences behind the palace walls.
While these are only rumors for now, a memoir could reportedly create further challenges for the Palace, especially following the release of Charles Spencer's memoir about Princess Diana.
Prince William reportedly believes that Sarah Ferguson has no place in the royal fold. After the large-scale controversy last year, Ferguson was asked to leave Royal Lodge. Earlier, multiple reports suggested that Ferguson was planning a tell-all memoir, although it was never confirmed. However, now that Charles Spencer's new memoir about Princess Diana is out, it has reportedly taken Ferguson by surprise.
A source told Closer Online that this has reminded her that a memoir of this scale can cause chaos. Prince William is reportedly not happy with the situation, and even urged Charles to remove his uncle's ****** les long before he actually did. When it comes to Ferguson, he allegedly believes that she is a "scheming wretch" and should not be back in the royal fold again.
Although the monarch agrees with this, the situation is reportedly complicated, especially following the controversy surrounding Spencer's memoir. The source said, "They don't need any more enemies, so Sarah may yet get some type of compromise on that basis."

Prince George has likely visited home after nearly a month at his new school.
The Prince and Princess of Wales's eldest son, 13, started secondary school at Eton College in September, following in his father's footsteps.
George looked so smart in his new uniform in an official picture taken by Matt Porteous on 8 September after his arrival earlier that day with his parents.
Now, the young royal may have made a flying visit back home to Forest Lodge in Windsor Great Park, which is only a stone's throw away from his new school.

Prince William and Kate Middleton's children reportedly use different names at school. According to a report, Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis are known as George Wales, Charlotte Wales, and Louis Wales among their school friends. The surname reflects their parents' ****** les as the Prince and Princess of Wales.
Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis are known as 'Wales' at school, per report. According to ****** o!, Charlotte and Louis are in Year 7 and Year 4 at Lambrook Prep School in Berkshire. The school is reportedly close to the family's Windsor home, Forest Lodge. It seems that the royal siblings likely prefer to keep their school life low-key.
It was said that the surname is a nod to the Prince and Princess of Wales, the ****** les William and Kate received after Queen Elizabeth II's death in September 2022. Before that, when they were the Duke and ****** ss of Cambridge, their children reportedly used Cambridge at their previous schools. This seemingly followed what William and Prince Harry did, as the brothers used their father's former ****** le, Wales, when they were at school.
Meanwhile, George has seemingly started a new chapter at Eton. William and Kate reportedly accompanied him on his first day. The young Prince moved into one of the 25 boarding houses on the grounds.
Moreover, members of the royal family often don't use a surname. They are simply known by their ****** le, name, and His or Her Royal Highness. The royal family's website states that George V declared in 1917 that male-line descendants of Queen Victoria "shall bear the name of Windsor." The family reportedly continued to use it after Queen Elizabeth II's accession in 1952.

Ex-Prince Andrew is said to be in surprisingly high spirits, despite the turmoil surrounding him. A friend claims he is certain he will one day be exonerated and has taken on the police in a legal fight over the warrants used in his arrest. As a private court hearing approaches on Thursday, this legal fight is drawing fresh attention.
According to The Sun, Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor has applied for a judicial review to quash the search warrants that were issued in February. The High Court in London will consider the application in a private hearing soon.
Meanwhile, a friend has described his state of mind to the newspaper. "He seems incredibly buoyant despite everything he has been through and is really upbeat," the friend said. They went on to say: "He is utterly convinced that one day he will be completely exonerated. He thinks this is the first step towards that." The friend also described Andrew as living in relative seclusion on the King's Norfolk estate despite being estranged from other members of the royal family
The warrants stem from Andrew's February 19 arrest, which took place on his 66th birthday. Thames Valley Police arrested him on suspicion of misconduct in public office following allegations involving his dealings with Jeffrey Epstein. Police later searched his cottage on the Sandringham estate and his former home, Royal Lodge in Windsor, and removed evidence.
Despite Andrew's optimism, legal experts, however, are less convinced about this latest challenge. Lawyers quoted by The Sun cast doubt on the case and believe a win may make little difference. Even if the warrants were found to be flawed, police might still keep the evidence. It is also not known whether he will attend Thursday's hearing.

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are reportedly torn over which family to be with for the holidays and where to spend the festive season.
The Sussexes, who arrived in the UK over a month ago, are said to have different preferences for Christmas, with Harry favoring his motherland while Meghan misses Montecito, California, and her mother, Doria Ragland.
As tensions with the wider royal family, especially with the Prince and Princess of Wales, continue to heat up, Meghan Markle reportedly expects spending the holiday in the UK with the Windsors to be an awkward affair.

It's clear that the Princess of Wales has entered her autumn style era. Now that October is upon us, the 44-year-old has embraced the seasonal change with a plethora of darker-toned items.
Last week, Kate hosted a secret tea party for Three Peaks Challenge participants and their families at Windsor Castle. The royal looked elegant in a chocolate brown-coloured belted dress by the famously English heritage label Burberry. The structured fit-and-flare silhouette offered a clean, monochromatic look.
A new item in Kate's wardrobe, the £1,760 tailored dress is cut in a fit-and-flare silhouette that's cinched in with a striking, gold twist-lock belt. It also has slip pockets, which Kate was spotted appearing to use at certain moments. The dress appears to be bespoke as the sleeves are three-quarter length, whereas the frock on the shelves featured capped sleeves.

A year earlier, Kate wore the very same dress, but in black. During the German State visit in 2025, the mother of three was pictured viewing exhibits from the Royal Collection relating to Germany in the Green Drawing Room at Windsor Castle, alongside her husband, Prince William.

Princess Diana's brother Charles Spencer's new memoir Swan Song: Diana, My Sister is by far the worst tell-all the royal family has ever faced, a source tells In Touch.
"This book has shown how little defense they really have against someone who decides to turn on them," says the source. "It's really exposed their weakness when it comes to fighting back against this story of hatchet job, so of course it's now got them worrying about the next one."
Sarah "Fergie" Ferguson "may be denying any intentions, which is a relief, but the threat is still there if she does decide to pull the trigger," says the source, "and the same goes for" Andrew Mountbatten Windsor.
But there's another royal relative that's "really … putting the fear of God in them," the source reveals, and that's Meghan Markle.

Ex-Prince Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor once faced unexpected resistance from a royal family aide. Despite losing his prince **** le and royal honors, the palace staffer's actions reportedly left the disgraced royal shocked. King Charles later revoked Prince Andrew's royal status as the monarchy faced continued backlash over his ties to convicted **** offender Jeffrey Epstein.
Former Buckingham Palace press secretary **** ie Arbiter has recalled a never-before-heard clash with Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor.
During his appearance on the Daily Expresso podcast, Arbiter revealed that he rejected one of Andrew's demands during a royal garden party. He later hung up on the ex-prince after the ousted royal slammed the phone down on him.
The episode unfolded at Buckingham Palace during the Lambeth Conference, the decennial summit of Anglican bishops. Around 100 clergy in crimson robes were in attendance when Andrew rang Arbiter with an idea for a picture.
The former palace official shared, "He phoned me up one day during a garden party at Buckingham Palace and said, 'Get some chairs out because I've got a good idea for a photograph.' There were about 100 priests in their crimson frocks at the garden party, and he thought it would make a good picture of the Queen with all the clergy around her. I just said, 'No, it's not your garden party.'"

New York Fashion Week is here again! From September 10 through September 15, the city's biggest designers will unveil their Spring/Summer 2027 collections, and the action-packed week will be followed, as per tradition, by shows taking place in London, Milan, and Paris.
Over the past few years, some designers have chosen to start the festivities a bit early, and the same was true this season, with houses like Ralph Lauren, Cult Gaia, and Rachel Comey all showing their collections ahead of the official CFDA calendar.
And while the schedule may be stretching, so is the map of show locations. This year, presentations will take fashion fans across the greater NYC metropolitan area, with Collina Strada hosting its show at Storm King Art Center in New Windsor, New York, while threeASFOUR will present its show at the Mana Contemporary center in Jersey City.
This year also features a few exciting debuts, like Connor Ives, who is showing in his home country for the first time ever, in a switch from his usual slot during London Fashion Week. Yesterday also saw Henry Zankov present his debut collection for Diane von Furstenberg, where he took over as artistic director this past May.

The Princess of Wales looked stylish as ever for a milestone family moment on Tuesday. It's a momentous day for Prince William and Princess Kate who dropped their son Prince George off for his first day of secondary school at the prestigious Eton College today.
The royal couple braved the rain as they accompanied their 13-year-old, who looked so distinguished in his suit and tie, to the campus in Berkshire this morning. Kate was every inch the proud mum as she stood next to her grown-up son beneath an umbrella to meet with Eaton's head master, Simon Henderson, and Sir Nicholas Coleridge, the school's Provost.
The Princess of Wales was glamorous as ever as she braved the rain in a flattering green midi dress that cinched at the waist. The long-sleeved dress, which looked to be the Emilia Wickstead design she wore in 2023 while hosting Crown Princess Victoria of Sweden and Prince Daniel at Windsor Castle, featured a rounded neckline and fell to below the knee in an A-line silhouette with a floaty skirt that swished as she walked.

Meghan Markle is reportedly looking to rebuild one of her most high-profile friendships following her family's move back to the U.K. According to a new report, the ***** ss of Sussex has been quietly reaching out to Victoria Beckham after years of alleged tension between the two. The reported effort comes as Markle and Harry settle into a new home near the Beckhams' Cotswolds estate.
According to Globe Magazine, Meghan Markle believes there is still a chance to repair her friendship with Victoria Beckham despite their long-rumored falling out. A source claimed the ***** ss considers the relationship "unfinished business" and is now "reaching out and testing the waters" through mutual friends.
The insider alleged that Markle was deeply disappointed by how the friendship unraveled. The source also suggested she believes outside influences and media speculation played a significant role. Rather than any lasting personal conflict, these factors ultimately drove a wedge between the two women.
The reported feud dates back several years. In his book "Revenge: Meghan, Harry and the War Between the Windsors," author Tom Bower claimed Markle suspected Victoria of leaking private information to the press. According to the book, Harry later confronted David Beckham over the allegation, a move that reportedly strained the relationship between the couples.
The renewed interest in reconnecting follows Markle's reported return to the U.K. with Harry and their children, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet. Reports have claimed the family has relocated to an estate in the Cotswolds, where David and Victoria also own a country home.

Prince George, who turned 13 in July, is hitting a new milestone in September.
Kensington Palace confirmed that he would be starting school at Eton College come the fall semester. He is following in the footsteps of his father, Prince William, and uncle, Prince Harry, who also attended the prestigious boarding school.
Eton College houses about 1,350 students across 25 boarding houses, and each boy has his own room, per their website. Since its founding in 1440, the school has educated 20 British prime ministers, cultural figures and generations of royals.
The school is also close to William and Kate Middleton's family home, about a 15-minute drive from Forest Lodge in Windsor.
As a student, Prince William often walked to Windsor Castle on Sundays to have lunch with Queen Elizabeth. Now, George will become the next future king to join the royal tradition at Eton.

What Meghan Markle wants, what she really, really wants is Victoria Beckham back in her inner circle, reveals a source.
"Out of all the rejections and broken friendships she's had to deal with, this is the one that probably stings the most," the source tells Globe. "Meghan really believed she and Victoria were friends for life, and she still thinks that the argument that tore them apart was fueled by the media and other trouble-makers at the time."
According to Revenge: Meghan, Harry and the War Between the Windsors author Tom Bower, the Suits alum, 45, once "suspected" Posh Spice, 52, of leaking her private info to the press, In Touch reported in 2022.
Husband Prince Harry "called David Beckham to repeat the accusation," wrote the British journalist, per the outlet. "Outraged, Beckham's truthful denials damaged their relationship."

Kate Middleton's journey in the royal family may have been more deliberate than it first appeared. Experts believe she spent years preparing for life inside the monarchy. From her university days to her long courtship with Prince William, she had plenty of time to understand the institution before officially joining it. Now, royal commentators suggest that her patient approach may have been an important part of her eventual rise to the position of Princess of Wales.
Kate Middleton never treated her royal future as something to rush into, an expert believes. Royal author Simon Vigar claims she focused on making "steady progress" while learning how the institution worked.
Vigar, author of "The Four Wives of Windsor," told Fox News Digital that someone close to Prince William described the approach as, "We're not going to rush our fences." The idea was reportedly to learn the ropes first and take on greater responsibilities over time.
That patience became important because Middleton entered the Royal Family from a very different background, Vigar explained. Unlike Princess Diana, who was an aristocrat, and Queen Camilla, who also came from an upper-class family, Middleton was middle class. Her parents built their own business and worked to give their children opportunities, including private education.
She later attended St. Andrews University, where she met William. Their relationship developed over several years before their 2011 wedding. According to Christopher Andersen, that lengthy courtship ultimately worked in Middleton's favor.
