Kim Kardashian was left "so mad" after her years-old feud with Paris Hilton was recently revived, her biographer has revealed.
The reality TV star's biographer shared that Kim was left fuming after she learned Paris Hilton had ghosted him.
Jonathan Van Meter, author of Kim's upcoming authorised biography Citizen Kim: The Woman Who Created the Future, revealed he had tried several times to schedule an interview with Kim's former best friend, but was repeatedly left hanging.
"Kim was so mad when I told her," Jonathan told The Hollywood Reporter of Paris's multiple cancellations. "It seemed to stir up some ancient irritation between them. The creation turning on the creator."
Paris, 45, famously introduced Kim, 46, to the world via her reality series The Simple Life.
The formerly close friends had a falling out after Kim's star ascended with the success of her own reality TV series, Keeping Up with the Kardashians.

As per an author, Queen Camilla and Prince William's meeting has triggered an unforeseen development. The news emerges amid royal family tensions heightened since Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's UK return. The Duke of Sussex is now in the headlines after expressing his wish to reconcile with the royal family.
Queen Camilla's first meeting with Prince William reportedly left her so flustered that she instantly needed a gin and tonic. The claim comes from a royal biographer who detailed the seemingly awkward context of their first introduction.
In her biography "Queen Consort: The Life of Queen Camilla," author Penny Junor revisited the meeting. She wrote that the Queen Consort had even offered to step out of the house to avoid causing William any discomfort.
King Charles reportedly brushed off her worries, calling them "ridiculous," and went ahead with plans for her to meet his son after school. They scheduled the introduction for around 7 pm. But the royal heir showed up four hours ahead of time, giving her far less time to get ready than she had expected.
Rather than delaying the moment, Charles apparently urged them to face the unease head-on. However, after spending around 30 minutes with her future stepson, the former ***** ss of Cornwall reportedly came out of the meeting and said, "I need a gin and tonic."

Kate Middleton reportedly made it clear to the late Queen Elizabeth what role she would play before marrying Prince William. According to a royal author, the Princess of Wales expressed her thoughts on taking on royal responsibilities.
She allegedly clarified that she would always prioritize her family over royal obligations. The 44-year-old reportedly refused to be "pigeonholed" into obeying certain duties. For those unversed, William and Middleton got married on April 29, 2011.
Kate Middleton reportedly laid out her expectations regarding royal duties to the late Queen Elizabeth before marrying Prince William. Royal biographer Robert Jobson discussed the matter in his book, "Catherine, The Princess of Wales: The Biography." According to Jobson (via RadarOnline), the mother of three had established a few "fundamental life rules" that she intended to follow after joining "The Firm."
The Princess of Wales reportedly made her intentions clear to the late queen and her son, now King Charles. "She was clear from the outset that she would not be pigeonholed into carrying out particular duties. Her priority, she emphasized, would always be her family," the author wrote.
Furthermore, a source told the outlet that Middleton was "determined" to prevent the palace's expectations from "overshadowing her private life." Her commitment to maintaining those boundaries reportedly became even more important after she welcomed her three children: Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis.

Prince William and Kate Middleton met as first-year students at the University of St. Andrews in the fall of 2001—25 years ago—and became friends.
Legend has it that Kate's appearance in a see-through tunic in a March 2002 fashion show is what caused William to become romantically attracted to her.
Royal biographer Ingrid Seward counters that, though, revealing that the two had already been on a date months prior.
In the lore of Prince William and Kate Middleton's love story, legend has it that the future king was first romantically attracted to his friend Kate after seeing her walk in a 2002 charity fashion show. Sitting in the front row, William reportedly turned to a friend after seeing Kate hit the catwalk—in a see-through tunic made of gold and black fabric with blue-ribbon trim and a black bandeau bra and bikini bottoms underneath—and said, "She's hot!"
But according to longtime royal biographer Ingrid Seward, while Kate's modeling experience might have cemented William's interest in her, it wasn't the first spark. Writing for The Daily Mail, Seward said, "What no one knew back then—but I can exclusively reveal now—is that the couple had already been on a date."

Kate Middleton had an important royal quietly rooting for her before she and Prince William officially announced their marriage. As their relationship grew serious, one senior royal reportedly approved of William's choice. He also had some advice for Kate about handling life in the spotlight. That advice may have helped shape how she approached royal life.
Royal biographer Gyles Brandreth revealed to RadarOnline that Prince Philip was concerned about the effect intense publicity could have on people entering royal life. However, he was reportedly reassured that William had chosen a "level-headed girl" as his wife.
Philip's advice to Kate centered on an important distinction: the public attention surrounding a royal isn't necessarily about the individual. In his book, "Philip: The Final Portrait," Brandreth quoted Philip as saying, "If you believe the attention is for you, for you personally, you're going to end up in trouble."
He explained that the attention was actually about the role, adding, "The attention is for your role, what you do, what you're supporting. It isn't for you as an individual. You are not a celebrity. You are representing the royal family. That's all." This advice also sheds light on how Kate has handled life in the royal spotlight.
He reportedly told her not to focus on the cameras. Instead, he urged her to focus on the people she met. Brandreth said he had been on a walkabout with Kate and observed, "She does not look at the camera." He added that when interviewed, "Catherine talks about the matter in hand, never about herself."

Despite sometimes being pitted against one another in the media, Queen Camilla and Kate Middleton are actually "very close."
Both women have been described as the power behind the throne and are massive support systems to their respective husbands King Charles and Prince William.
The two have visibly shared evidence of their "warm" relationship, like at the Cenotaph for Remembrance Sunday last November.
The public—specifically the media—have wanted to make Queen Camilla and Kate Middleton into rivals, but the two women have actually become "very close," according to a royal biographer.

Now that Prince Harry has moved back to the U.K., there's a much higher chance that he'll run into his older brother, Prince William, whom he has been estranged from for years.
One "quite significant" event—the 30-year anniversary of their mother Princess Diana's death in 1997—could reunite the brothers face-to-face, according to royal biographer Robert Jobson.
Two fellow brothers could also play a role in bringing William and Harry "back together," according to royal commentator Richard Fitzwilliams.
This August 31 marks 29 years since Princess Diana's death at just 36 years old in a 1997 Paris car crash. Unbelievably, in 2027, 30 years will have passed since the seismic loss that was felt around the world—but none felt it more acutely than her sons, Prince William and Prince Harry.
The brothers aren't thought to have spoken to one another since 2022 and their grandmother Queen Elizabeth's funeral that September. Much has happened since that time, including—unexpectedly—Harry's return to the U.K. on August 26, alongside his wife Meghan Markle and their children Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet. The Sussexes spent six years in the United States—Montecito, California, specifically—and are now back in Britain for what is being described as an extended stay.

Six years after trading royal duties for California, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are preparing to make Britain part of their family life again.
Their biographer, Omid Scobie — who co-wrote the 2020 Sussex biography Finding Freedom before publishing Endgame in 2023 — says the country now means something different to them, with the royal journalist addressing their reported return in his newly launched Off Script Substack.
Scobie believes the couple's priorities have shifted as they raise Prince Archie, 7, and Princess Lilibet, 5.

"Harry and Meghan themselves are not the same people who left. They are older, raising two children, building businesses and careers independent of royal life, and relate to Britain differently than they once did," he wrote.

Queen Camilla reportedly broke the ice with Prince Harry with one simple gesture during his July visit to Highgrove. The Queen was said to have offered her stepson a cup of tea, marking a seemingly cordial moment after years of tension, memoir revelations, and strained family relations.
The reported encounter came shortly before the Sussexes' rumored UK return and followed an apparently calmer private reunion between Harry, King Charles, and Camilla.
As per the Daily Mail, royal author Tom Bower stated that Prince Harry visited Highgrove last month. The royal biographer wrote that the atmosphere was "polite with no recrimination." Bower said Queen Camilla had a "fixed smile" and "offered tea" to her stepson. He also claimed the goodwill appeared to calm Harry's concerns about returning to Britain.
Meanwhile, InStyle reported that the July 10 meeting also included Meghan Markle and the children. The outlet said Prince Archie, 7, and Princess Lilibet, 5, joined their parents at Highgrove. It also reported that the visit marked King Charles' first face-to-face meeting with them in four years. The outlet described Camilla's tea offer as an "olive branch" after years of tension.
However, the history between them gave the seemingly simple gesture added significance. InStyle noted that Prince Harry once described Camilla as a "wonderful woman" in 2005, joking at the time that she was "not the wicked stepmother."

Natalie Harp has drawn attention with her reported absence from a recent White House event attended by Melania Trump. The development comes as the first lady returned to public view after more than a month away from appearances alongside Donald Trump. Here is everything to know.
As reported by The Daily Beast, Natalie Harp, who has frequently accompanied Donald Trump in recent weeks, was reportedly not seen at the White House on Thursday when Melania Trump made a rare public appearance. The president's executive ***** istant did not feature in photographs from the event, where the first lady joined her husband in the Rose Garden to announce the expansion of her Fostering the Future initiative.
Harp's reported absence comes after she was repeatedly spotted with Trump during the past month. She was reportedly present with the president on numerous occasions, including during his trip to Turkey and his weekend visit to his golf club in New Jersey. According to reports, Harp was seen with Trump on at least 18 days over the previous month, while Melania did not appear publicly alongside her husband during the same period.
The circumstances have also drawn renewed attention to earlier claims about the relationship between Harp and the first lady. Trump biographer Michael Wolff has alleged that Melania's limited appearances alongside her husband were due to Harp's presence. Wolff claimed, "Melania, whose appearances with her husband were carefully negotiated and choreographed, would not show up if Harp was around." The biographer further added, "Since Harp was always around, Melania never was—appearing with her husband only in the last week of the campaign."
Melania's appearance on Thursday marked one of her first public appearances with Trump in more than a month. Addressing the crowd, she appeared to reference her extended absence with a lighthearted comment, saying, "I heard you missed me. Here I am," before welcoming attendees to the White House.

Prince William and Kate Middleton have been married for over 15 years, after tying the knot on April 29, 2011 at Westminster Abbey.
The Prince and Princess of Wales have gone on to welcome three children and build a solid marriage built to last the duration.
Royal biographer Russell Myers said the "secret" to their union boils down to one word: support.
Prince William and Kate Middleton are over 15 years into marriage, and this fall will mark 25 years since their love story began as first-year college students at the University of St. Andrews in Scotland.
There is no exact formula for a thriving relationship, but a royal biographer identified, in his view, the key to the pair's success. "The secret to the Prince and Princess of Wales' marriage is support for one another throughout their roles as working royals and as parents to their three young children," said Russell Myers, who wrote the book William and Catherine: The Monarchy's New Era: The Inside Story, which came out in February.

King Charles and Queen Camilla have regularly appeared to be the perfect couple, and that even extends to the fact that the pair have sweet pet names for one another.
However, while many of us might be content with calling our significant other names like 'darling', 'sweetie' or a shortened version of their own name, the monarch and his love have more unique monikers.
Since the early days of their courtship, Charles has called Camilla 'Gladys', while Camilla has called her husband 'Fred'. The names are believed to have derived from The Goon Show, a radio show broadcast on the BBC that ran between 1951 and 1960.
Fred is a character who in the show manages to disappear right from underneath his mother's nose, while Gladys was known for her constantly changing voice and for responding to many questions by saying: "Yes, darling!"
Princess Diana previously said that Charles had previously purchased Camilla a bracelet with the initials of the characters entwined within it. Speaking to biographer Andrew Morton, she claimed: "I walked into this man's office one day and I said, 'Ooh, what's in that parcel?' And he said 'Oh, you shouldn't look at that.

Prince William and Kate Middleton attended the Commonwealth Games in Glasgow, Scotland on August 1.
Alongside them were their three children Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis—marking the children's first official engagement in Scotland.
The "snapshot of family happiness" shows that the family has officially "come out the other side" of a difficult season, royal biographer Robert Jobson said.
They say that a picture is worth a thousand words, and this one certainly is—a shot of the Wales family of five enjoying themselves at the Commonwealth Games in Glasgow, Scotland on August 1. It marked not only Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis's first official engagement in Scotland—and Louis's first official engagement at a sporting event—but also, as royal biographer Robert Jobson put it, proof that the "hardest year of their lives" is "finally behind them."

Meghan Markle's alleged "outsider" complaint drew fresh criticism after her UK trip with Prince Harry. The ****** ss of Sussex was reportedly hurt by the way palace arrangements unfolded during the visit. A new YouTube segment linked that reaction to her wider trouble with royal life. The royal experts' discussion framed the issue around family protocol, public expectations, and whether the "Suits" actor ever adjusted to the royal family's way of operating.
As per TalkTV's YouTube video uploaded on August 4, 2026, Kevin O'Sullivan discussed Meghan Markle's birthday. He was joined by royal biographer Angela Levin. The segment then moved to the recent UK trip.
O'Sullivan said reports claimed Meghan was upset about being treated like "a pair of outsiders." Levin said Meghan came from "a different family." She added that the ****** ss "can't really know how to deal with it."
Meanwhile, Levin argued that the issue extended beyond a single visit. She said Meghan "won't do anything to fit in." The biographer added she would not adapt to "how the royals fit in." Levin also claimed Meghan "didn't do that from the start."
She said the former "Suits" actress "hated it." The comments framed the royal family clash as cultural and personal. They also followed renewed discussion about Prince Harry's wish for closer royal ties.

Prince William reportedly saw red over an early royal request involving Kate Middleton's name. The Prince of Wales was said to be "seething" after the King and Queen allegedly pushed a spelling change. A new report claimed the issue centered on changing Catherine to Katherine. The dispute was small on paper but personal in meaning. It framed William as protecting his wife, her identity, and the Middleton family.
As per a RadarOnline report, the claim came from Christopher Andersen. The royal biographer said Charles and Camilla privately urged a name change. They allegedly wanted "Catherine" changed to "Katherine" with a K.
The reason, according to Andersen, was initials. The core royal group already had Charles, Camilla, and Catherine as C names. The report also noted that Catherine married William in April 2011 at Westminster Abbey.
Meanwhile, the report said Prince William viewed the request as personal rather than cosmetic. Prince Harry also referenced the moment in "Spare." He wrote that William's "face was blank" when the idea surfaced. A royal source claimed Catherine found the suggestion "incredibly personal."
The insider said her parents, Carole and Michael Middleton, chose that spelling at birth. The source added it felt "strange and quite intrusive." Another line claimed William was "seething" over it.

Prince Philip had a very blunt nickname for Meghan Markle when she was first introduced to the royal family, a royal biographer has claimed.
Suits actress Meghan, 44, attended the Christmas Party at Windsor Castle in 2017, shortly after she began dating Prince Harry. There, she was introduced to Harry's grandparents, the late Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip.
Writer and lecturer Hugo Vickers recently revealed new details about the event in his biography, Queen Elizabeth II: A Personal History – including the nickname Philip once gave Meghan.
Hugo Vickers wrote: "The staff at Sandringham joyfully surrounded the couple at the annual Christmas party and nicknamed the actress 'Sparkle'. Prince Philip, however, was not taken in. He referred to her as 'the American'."
Writing about the other family members' reactions, he added: "Nor were the Royal Family entirely happy, Prince Charles taking a Mountbatten line – have fun with her, but don't marry her. The Queen suggested that Harry should wait a year."

Royal women have faced struggles throughout history – and in her new book, the royal biographer Catherine Mayer explores the challenges confronted by the Queen, the Princess of Wales and the ******* ss of Sussex, as well as past figures including Diana, Princess of Wales, Queen Victoria and Anne Boleyn.
In an exclusive interview for ******* O!'s A Right Royal Podcast, the author discusses how a calm and composed Kate Middleton managed to establish a unique role within the Firm.
"She has done such a clever job of finding a way to adapt to the institution," says Catherine, who published a biography of Prince Charles, as he was then, in 2015. "That does not mean that I think she has it easy. [But she has done] very little speaking and almost no confessional spilling of anything about who she is. She's quite enigmatic.
"She and William have chosen a group of friends who do no media. They are carving out a very private life in the public eye, which is an enormously difficult thing to do."
Catherine also says that Kate is "a player of the long game" when it comes to both her reputation and her sense of style. "She has, if you look at her fashion evolution, definitely figured out how to present herself.
