Prince William has said giving Sir Kevin Sinfield his knighthood, is "probably one of the easiest decisions anyone's ever had to make".
The future King has appeared in an exclusive interview with BBC Breakfast to share his personal admiration for Sir Kevin, who recently completed seven ultra marathons in seven days.
Sir Kevin took part in the extreme endurance challenge to raise money for Motor Neurone Disease (MND) charities following the death of his best friend and former rugby team-mate, Rob Burrow from the condition in 2024.
"I think frankly he should have been Sir Kevin years ago," said Prince William.
"What Kevin does, is he can bind and glue communities together by being that leader. The more Kevs we have in this country the better."

A source claims that Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's visit to Nottingham did not please one royal. The news comes at a time when the Sussexes' relationship with the Firm remains notably strained. That said, the Duke recently discussed his desire to reconcile with his brother, Prince William, and his father, King Charles, in an interview with GQ.
Sources are suggesting that Princess Catherine is apparently "seething" over Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's appearance in Nottingham. The outing marked a return to the kind of public engagements typically ****** ociated with royal duties.
As per RadarOnline.com, an insider said, "Catherine's frustration had intensified into her being consumed by fury following the Sussexes' Nottingham engagement, which revived painful memories of the couple's public criticism of the royal family."
They claimed that Catherine had long steered clear of confrontations with Harry and Meghan to respect William's feelings, but she is now becoming less willing to keep her thoughts to herself. The source added, "She is said to be absolutely seething behind closed doors over Harry and Meghan's latest appearances, and the scenes in Nottingham have brought years of frustration bubbling back to the surface."
The source further explained that, from Kate Middleton's perspective, it is deeply upsetting to watch the Sussexes return to Britain and receive considerable attention. The Princess of Wales is reportedly particularly aggrieved to see the pair greeting crowds and visiting local charities. They added that the non-working royals are now doing engagements almost identical to the royal duties they left behind.

Michael Dell, philanthropist and founder of Dell Technologies, pushed back against critics who argue that allowing wealthy investors to donate individual company stocks to Trump Accounts could have a nefarious impact.
Under new rules that took effect last week, charities can put individual stocks into kids' accounts as a donation. Trump Accounts are tax-advantaged investment vehicles that can be used for education expenses, starting a business, or saving for retirement. They were authorized in last year's One Big Beautiful Tax bill. Previously, the money was required to be invested in low-cost index funds.

So far, ***** eX President Gwynne Shotwell is the only donor to announce a major stock contribution, pledging more than 2 million shares to benefit lower-income children ages 11 to 17 living in lower-income areas.
"It's kind of hard for me to believe that's a bad thing, right?" Dell said Wednesday in an interview with Yahoo Finance. "That these children are going to somehow be negatively influenced because they now have one share of ***** eX, but they didn't have before, right? The alternative is they didn't have it, right?"

A dress worn by Princess Diana dubbed her "revenge dress" is being put up for auction.
The late Princess of Wales wore the strapless black silk evening dress to a party in London hours after her then-estranged husband Prince Charles admitted to committing adultery during their marriage.
Her dramatic arrival at the Serpentine Gallery in 1994 in the outfit became an iconic pop-culture moment.
Auction house Sotheby's expects the dress to sell for up to £220,000 ($300,000) when it goes under the hammer on 9 December - the first time it has been up for auction since 1997, when the princess sold 79 of her dresses just months before her death to raise money for charities.
Morgane Halimi, Sotheby's Global Head of Handbags and Fashion, said in a statement that Princess Diana "understood instinctively" that fashion can be a language in its own right.

Princess Diana's "revenge dress" is going up for auction for the first time in nearly 30 years
Diana wore the outfit in June 1994, the same night when the future King Charles confessed to his affair with the future Queen Camilla in a televised interview
Before hitting the auction block on Dec. 9, the outfit will go on a global exhibition tour
One of Princess Diana's most famous outfits is going up for auction — but not before an international tour.
Diana's "revenge dress" — the strapless black evening dress by Greek designer Christina Stambolian that she wore at the Serpentine Gallery in London on June 29, 1994, the same night as a televised interview in which the future King Charles confessed his infidelity with Camilla Parker-Bowles (now Queen Camilla) — will be sold this December by Sotheby's. This will mark the first time in nearly 30 years that the dress has been available to buy, after previously being offered at a 1997 auction, when Princess Diana sold 79 of her dresses to benefit cancer and AIDS charities shortly before her tragic death at age 36. Then, it sold for $65,000.

Princess Diana's iconic "revenge dress" could fetch $300,000 at auction.
The iconic Christina Stambolian dress will be sold this December during Sotheby's Luxury Week with an estimate of $150,000–$300,000.
The dress will be offered at auction for the first time since June 1997, when the late princess sold 79 of her dresses at auction to raise funds to benefit cancer and AIDS charities.
A rare copy of the original catalog, numbered and signed by the princess and the designer of the dress, crediting Prince William with the idea of the sale will be sold with the dress. Part of the proceeds from the sale will be donated to NHS Lothian Charity on behalf of the Royal Edinburgh Hospital.

Prince Harry has announced his first public engagement since returning to the UK.
The Duke of Sussex will complete a skydive to raise money for military charities.
The event will also allow him to fulfil a promise he made to a 102-year-old veteran. Last November, Harry met World War II veteran Ed Marshall during a visit to Sunnybrook Hospital's veterans centre in Toronto. "They quickly bonded over their shared experience of military service and the way they have continued to serve their communities," the Sunnybrook Foundation shared.
Marshall trained as a paratrooper during World War II, and had told Harry about the charity skydive he completed on his 100th birthday. "The idea stuck, and together, they devised a plan for another jump," the organisation noted.
While Marshall won't be doing the jump with Harry, he will be represented by his grandson, Bailey. The jump will raise money for Sunnybrook and True Patriot Love Foundation, both of which support Canada's military veterans. Harry has previously worked with True Patriot Love Foundation to take the Invictus Games to Canada in 2017 and 2025.
The jump is set to take place later this month, although the location and time haven't yet been disclosed.

Prince Harry reportedly opted for skydiving for his first UK engagement. According to a report, he has seemingly scheduled the air-based activity to raise money for two charities. Moreover, he also made this unexpectedly bold move because of a promise he made to a 102-year-old World War II vet, Ed Marshall. The two met last year and connected instantly over their "shared experience of military service."
Prince Harry reportedly chose his first public engagement in the UK, and it's not for the faint of heart. The Duke of Sussex is set to skydive for charities and also to keep a promise to a military veteran. According to PEOPLE, he met the 102-year-old World War II vet Ed Marshall last November in Toronto. During his visit to Sunnybrook Hospital, Harry befriended Marshall, who informed him about the charity skydive.
The official website of the Sunnybrook Foundation shared the exchange between the prince and Marshall. "Ed amazed Prince Harry when he proudly recounted the fundraising skydive he completed to mark his 100th birthday. The idea stuck, and together, they devised a plan for another jump," the report read.
Furthermore, it didn't specifically mention a date but stated that the activity would take place this month. While Marshall wouldn't be able to join Harry, his grandson Bailey would take the honorable jump with the duke. This move would reportedly raise money for two charities, Sunnybrook and True Patriot Love Foundation. Both organizations support Canadian military veterans.
Meanwhile, the upcoming skydive would seemingly mark Harry's first engagement since his return to the UK. For those unversed, he moved back to his home country last week with his wife, Meghan Markle, and kids, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet. It was reportedly that the Sussexes would continue as non-working royals and stay in a private residence outside London.

Good Good Golf CEO Matt Kendrick and president Joe Flannery have left the brand in the wake of their advertisement with Callaway that generated massive backlash in recent weeks.
Kendrick and Flannery left the company this week, according to multiple reports. An internal memo, via The Athletic, stated that early investor and co-founder Nahid Giga is planning to step in as the company's interim CEO. Both Kendrick and Flannery, according to the memo, left the company of their own accord.
Their departures are just the latest after the Good Good Golf-Callaway advertisement that was released last month. The company released an ad that showed one of its co-founders, Garrett Clark, shoving a female employee to the ground as she attempted to touch the driver in his golf bag.
The ad was removed the next day, and both Good Good and Callaway have since apologized. Callaway eventually ended its partnership with Good Good, and announced that it would donate $1 million to charities aimed at preventing domestic violence. Callaway director of content and production Alex Upegui is leaving the company.
The PGA Tour has since split with Good Good, too, and the Good Good Championship this fall will have another ******* le sponsor.

CLEVELAND — Guardians manager Stephen Vogt is using Major League Baseball's Players' Weekend to spread awareness for two charities that are near and dear to his family's heart.
MLB's Players' Weekend will run Aug. 21-23. During these three days, players, coaches and managers are able to utilize custom gear (bats, gloves, cleats, catcher's equipment and more) along with individualized name plates on the backs of jerseys. The Guardians will be in Colorado to play the Rockies during this stretch.
Those partaking in Players' Weekend also have the option of auctioning off custom gear to benefit charities.
Vogt will be using that time to wear custom shoes in an effort to bring awareness to the Ronald McDonald House of Cleveland and the Boys & Girls Clubs of Northeast Ohio.
"It's a cool opportunity just to spotlight two unbelievable organizations that help a lot of people in different ways," Vogt said.

Princess Anne turned 76 on Saturday, but her birthday this year seemed to be very understated due to one strict rule she follows, a royal expert has claimed.
Last year, the royal rang in her milestone 75th birthday by redirecting the spotlight to her patronages, hosting an abundance of charities at Buckingham Palace. For her celebrations this year, the Princess Royal stayed under the radar, once again shying away from the limelight.
According to royal expert Roya Nikkhah, Anne has a "no-frills" approach to her birthday celebrations, which hinges on one single digit. "Anne's policy is: 'I will do things for my birthdays that have a zero, but I won't do things for my birthdays that have a five'," the expert said on the Royals with Roya and Kate podcast.
The Princess Royal has a "no-frills" approach to her birthdays, according to a royal expert (@ Getty Images)
The royal spent her last major birthday, her 70th in 2020, sailing along the west coast of Scotland with her husband, Vice Admiral Sir Tim Laurence. Plans for a big family celebration had to be scaled back due to the COVID-19 pandemic restrictions.

ETF.com President & Director of Research Dave Nadig grabbed some time with John Montgomery, Founder, CEO, and PM at Bridgeway Capital Management, while at the 2026 ICI ETF Conference. Their discussion covered everything from contrarian investing and walking the talk to the company's 50% donation of profits to charities since its inception in the early '90s.
John Montgomery has been running Bridgeway for over three decades, with a simple pitch: deep quantitative research, a focus on smaller, less-liquid stocks that bigger competitors can't touch, and a lean team where everyone knows everyone. But the real differentiator isn't the strategy but instead the why. Bridgeway funnels a share of its profits into a foundation focused on ending genocide and preventing war atrocities, working in sub-Saharan Africa and Ukraine. It's not a marketing gimmick either but instead is baked into the culture from the board room down.
The firm's move from mutual funds to ETFs is its own case study in doing things the hard way for the right reasons. Rather than sidestep the pain with a cheaper clone or share-class workaround, Bridgeway fully converted several strategies, eating short-term costs for long-term tax efficiency and lower fees. Montgomery's philosophy is if a painful transition is coming, do it early and don't wait until you're the last holdout. However, Bridgeway isn't trying to be a trailblazer either in that regard, instead waiting for at least some of the infrastructure to get built by others and jumping in once the operational kinks are worked out.
On the investing side, Montgomery's contrarian streak runs deep. His family literally trims their own personal budget to buy more stock when markets crash, putting the buy low, sell high mentality into practice. That mindset shows up in Bridgeway's small-cap value strategy, which stays disciplined even when the category falls out of favor, helped by a long partnership with Focus Partners Wealth that rebalances into the strategy precisely when everyone else is fleeing it. It's a countercyclical approach that sounds obvious on paper and is brutally hard to live by in practice. It's also the perfect case study for exactly why people need financial advisors in the first place.

Twotime World Series champion Shane Victorino volunteered at the Shane Victorino Nicetown Boys & Girls Club in Philadelphia Saturday morning.
Major League Baseball, Phillies Charities, Inc. and the Boys & Girls Clubs of Philadelphia teamed up to refurbish the Shane Victorino Nicetown Club as part of MLB Together's yearlong volunteer initiative.
About 100 volunteers spent the morning painting and deep cleaning learning and social **** es inside the club, while others worked outside on seeding, planting and landscaping improvements. The effort was supported by the Pennsylvania Horticultural Society and additional special guests.
The project contributed to MLB Together's goal of reaching 250,000 collective volunteer hours by the end of 2026 in honor of America's 250th anniversary.
According to MLB, the initiative is part of a broader investment of more than $5.5 million in community projects across the region aimed at expanding youth access to baseball and softball, supporting veterans and providing educational and nutritional resources.

Children with physical and cognitive challenges stepped up to the plate at Citizens Bank Park on Wednesday night with former Phillies players as part of a partnership between Major League Baseball, Phillies Charities Inc. and the Miracle League.
The event kicked off MLB All-Star week in Philadelphia.
The Miracle League, a national nonprofit that creates opportunities for children with disabilities to play baseball, joined the Phillies for an evening designed to make young fans feel like pros. Among them were Everett and Remi, siblings born with cerebral palsy.
"This has been just a dream. These are the two biggest Phillies fans right here," said their mother, Samantha Govitz.
Kids had the chance to take swings against Phillies legend ****** ie Noles, run the bases and slide into home plate. For families, the experience was as meaningful as it was memorable.

Two-time major golf champion John Daly arrived in Akron and paid a visit to the Diamond Grill ahead of his Ambassador Golf Award ceremony at House Three Thirty.
Diamond Grill shared a picture on their Facebook with Daly.
This week is the last Kaulig Companies Championship Tournament at Firestone Country Club. Several golfers are in town for the PGA Tour Champions event.
Daly is being recognized as the 2026 recipient of the Ambassador of Golf Award presented by Northern Ohio Golf Charities & Foundation July 9.
"I've always loved this game and what it’s given me,” Daly said about the award earlier this week. “Golf has taken me places I never imagined and introduced me to incredible people along the way. To be recognized with the Ambassador of Golf Award is truly an honor, and I’m proud to support the meaningful work being done here in Northeast Ohio."

Thanks to Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce's wedding, love and equanimity are in the air. Right?
Well, not for everyone. Though many are gushing online over the couple's celebrity-filled wedding extravaganza at New York City's Madison Square Garden July 3, the event has also drawn plenty of backlash from people saying they're over lavish weddings.
"'Let them eat cake' hits a little differently when the cake is served at a billionaire's wedding in Madison Square Garden," wrote one X user. "ur telling me that a billionaire had a wedding raffle of luxury items that she gave away to other members of the elite class of other billionaires and millionaires," wrote another. Swift and Kelce donated $26 million to charities across the country ahead of their wedding, but that seems to have done little to stunt the backlash. As another put it: "I truly think this was the most gauche, gaudy new-money (wedding) I have ever witnessed & I love Taylor Swift."
Swift and Kelce are far from the only famous couple to have their luxury wedding come under the harsh judgment of the internet. Remember Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez's wedding in Venice, Italy, which drew protests? Or when Bilt Rewards CEO Ankur Jain and former WWE wrestler Erika Hammond got married in a four-day spectacle in Egypt?
Mental health experts previously told USA TODAY that resentment toward displays of wealth often have little to do with the actual individuals involved. Usually, these harsh reactions stem from deeper frustrations people have with their own economic situations.

Travis Kelce posted a surprise "New Heights" interview with Prince William on Friday, the day he's set to get married to his popstar fiancé Taylor Swift at New York's Madison Square Garden.
"We thought were gonna be talking to, like, fat offensive linemen, not kings, queens, princes of other nations," co-host Jason Kelce said as the 30-minute interview came to a close. "This is pretty wild."

Lucas Glover would like to see the PGA Tour get back to its roots, when its tagline used to be "charity is the winner."
As a past champion of this week's John Deere Classic, Glover joined "Golf Today" on Golf Channel on Wednesday and was his usual candid self.
Glover, who won the JDC in 2021, said he'd like the PGA Tour to focus more of its energies on the good deeds its doing in the communities where they play rather than so much talk about player greed and the gobs of money they are playing for on a weekly basis.
When asked by host Eamon Lynch how he'd like to see the Tour invest the $1.5 billion from private equity partner SSG, Glover said he didn't know enough about the Tour's financials to make an educated guess. Glover is the chairman of the Player Advisory Council this season and is slated to join the Tour's board as a player director (replacing Adam Scott) in January. He hinted at one of his pet projects when he begins serving his term.
"I'd like to see a little more awareness and commitment to the charities that the tournament supports," Glover said. "I think we've lost a little bit of that with the influx of money and the signature series and things like that. I plan to let that be known when I get on the board that I think that should be a focus again is how much we actually do for the communities that we're in and what that means to be able to do that."
