Britain’s Prince Harry and his family will return to the United Kingdom for a visit next month, British media reported Wednesday.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex are expected to be accompanied by their two children, Archie, seven, and Lilibet, five, in what would be their first trip to the UK as a family in four years, according to the BBC, the Telegraph and ITV News.
Harry and his wife Meghan, who live in California, left the UK for North America in 2020 after stepping back from royal life, and have since been involved in a long-running, public falling out with his family.
The Sussexes cited a toxic cocktail of tabloid intrusion, entrenched racism in British institutions, online abuse and complex family dynamics, alongside a desire for financial independence as reasons for leaving the UK, in televised interviews and a memoir.
In the years since, Harry, 41, has made several short trips back to the UK, most notably attending the funeral of Queen Elizabeth II in 2022 and his father King Charles III’s coronation in 2023.
Harry returned to England in September last year when he reunited with his father –– their first face-to-face meeting in 19 months. His last visit to the country was January this year, when he attended court as part of a lawsuit he and others have brought against the publisher of the Daily Mail over allegations of unlawful information gathering.
Harry has previously shared his desire to reconcile with his family, and the meeting triggered speculation the royal family’s rift might be abating.
It is not yet known whether the King will meet with his grandchildren during the reported visit next month. They last saw each other in person in 2022, when the Sussex family returned to the UK for the late Queen’s Platinum Jubilee celebrations.
Their visit coincides with an event marking one year to the start of the Invictus Games, the biennial sporting competition Harry founded more than a decade ago.

The 2026 Las Culturistas Culture Awards, hosted by Bowen Yang and Matt Rogers, celebrated the best in pop culture.
It was a jam-packed two-hour telecast of the award ceremony in its second year on Bravo.
Yang and Rogers started off the night with a nod to Heated Rivalry, breaking out into song in their hockey gear. Hunting Wives stars Brittany Snow and Malin Akerman also joined the duo to sing Tatu’s “All the Things She Said,” which was needle dropped in the Canadian series.
In their opening monologue, Yang and Rogers mentioned the Summer House scandal, which rocked the Bravoverse. Later that night, Ciara Miller won the Allison Williams Cool Girl Award and delivered a speech that resonated with fans.
“Thank you so much. If by ‘cool’ you mean, ‘Utterly disappointed by everybody around me,’ yes, I am so f**king cool,” she said. “Obviously, this year has been a little rough, but you know what they say – the best revenge is winning the Allison Williams Cool Girl Award.”
She added, “And booking Love Island USA. And being in Shaboozey’s music video. And also being a registered nurse. And a model. So I’m going to put this in the bathroom of my new house.”

Will Ferrell was honored with the Titan of Culture award and gave audiences advice to “be proud of yourself,” adding, “I think we should all celebrate our pride.”
“I have pride about being an actor and a filmmaker, but I also have pride about being a husband to a wife,” the SNL alum said. “I guess what I’m saying is, I’m proud to be straight. God, it feels good to finally say that.”
Ferrell continued his funny bit, saying, “The second, more important thing after pride is to be happy, be joyful, be gay. Have gay pride! Starting this month, I hereby declare June — Pride Month!”

Lisa Kudrow received the Lifetime of Culture honor, with Ben Platt taking the stage for a rendition of “Smelly Cat,” the song Kudrow’s Phoebe Buffay sang on Friends.
“Thank you so much. Winning this Lifetime Culture award is everything to me,” Kudrow said after receiving her trophy from her The Comeback co-star Malin Akerman. “I know what got me here tonight, it’s a career of meticulous planning to impress Matt Rogers and Bowen Yang.”
Kudrow joked that it was Romy & Michele that “was going to be enough” to impress Rogers and Yang “when they were in grade school.”
“When I auditioned for Friends in 1994, I thought, ‘This is the show I should do cause you know who’s going to love it? Four-year-old Matt and not-yet-born Bown!’ Kudrow said, eliciting laughs from the audience. “All culminating in, not a coincidence, the third season of The Comeback. I knew Matt and Bowen would have to give me this award this year. So, thank you, gentleman, for playing right into my hands. And a bigger thanks to me, Lisa, for having my priorities straight.”

“NBD but I just achieved a major milestone as a woman online,” Reese Witherspoon and ex-husband Ryan Phillippe’s daughter wrote in a TikTok video posted in May 2024. “I saw 2 different strangers commenting on my body.”
She continued, “The first said I should get on Oz*mpic because I’m too fat. The second accused me of starving myself because I’m too thin. My weight did not change in the time period between their comments. (& it wouldn’t be any of their business if it did!)”
Ava said that “no one deserves to be picked apart for what they look like.” She added, “You don’t always know what someone’s gone through or what they struggle with. But no matter who you are… Your beauty exceeds such superficial measures.”
After some critics accused the House Bunny actress of looking too skinny in an Instagram photo, the star fired back, writing, “I know I don’t need to do this but in an effort to spread some awareness and shed some light on body shaming tactics i felt the need to share. After the barrage of some really inappropriate comments left on my pic I posted yesterday I was left really bummed cause I was really enjoying the silly pics I took. It was a weird angle that even made me feel life I looked smaller than I do in real life. But regardless even though you may think it’s your job or even your right to leave unfiltered thoughts or judgements about my body for me and others to read… it’s not.”
“Coming for me in my comments and telling me how I’m too skinny or I need to eat is absolutely not helpful and extremely body shaming,” she continued.”Body shaming of any kind is something I will not stand for.”
More than a week later, she shared a photo of herself sunbathing in a bikini, writing, “For the haters….with love and gratitude kindly [kiss emoji] my [peach emoji], I’ll keep smiling regardless [peace sign emoji].”
After being called “too skinny,” the legendary singer addressed the negative comments, telling Entertainment Tonight, “Is there anything wrong about my body? I’ve always been very thin. I do ballet. I do a lot of stretching and I work out because it helps my mind, body and soul.”
“If you don’t want to be criticized, you are in the wrong place. I take what’s good for me. I leave behind what is not good for me,” she explained. “I let my management take care of that, and if it hurts anyone, they will take care of that. And I need to focus on what’s right for me, how I feel and, last but not least, you can’t please everybody.”
The “Señorita” star previously took to Instagram Stories to send a message to her haters.
“I haven’t gone on social media AT ALL with the conscious intention of avoiding things that hurt my feelings,” she began her lengthy post. “My eyes accidentally ran over a head line of people ‘body shaming me.’ Honestly, first thing I felt was super insecure over just IMAGINING what these pictures must look like, oh no! My cellulite! Oh no! I didn’t suck in my stomach! But then I was like…of course there are bad pictures, of course there are bad angles, my body’s not made of f–king rock, or all muscles, for that matter. But the saddest part of young girls growing up in an airbrushed world is they’re seeking a perfection that’s not real.”
“I’m writing this for girls like my little sister who are growing up on social media. They’re constantly seeing photoshopped, edited pictures and thinking that’s reality and everyone’s eyes get used to seeing airbrushed skin, and suddenly they think THAT’S norm. It isn’t. It’s fake. AND FAKE IS BECOMING THE NEW REAL. We have a completely unrealistic view of a woman’s body. Girls, cellulite is normal. fat is normal. It’s beautiful and natural. I won’t buy into the bulls–t today!!!! Not today satan and I hope you don’t either.”
In May 2019, the singer posted a video of herself performing at Hangout Music Festival in a black leotard. After seeing the video, a social media user tweeted, “Okay don’t mean to disrespect but aint too thiccccck!?? I mean never saw her like that BEFORE!! from the song with other two country dudes!!” However, the pop star quickly clapped back, replying, “I gained weight get over it.”
She also called out the fashion industry after she claimed several designers refused to dress her for the Grammys because of her size. “Empower women to love their bodies instead of making girls and women feel less then [sic] by their size,” she shared on Instagram in January 2019. “We are beautiful any size! Small or large! Anddddd My size 8 ass is still going to the Grammys. #LOVEYOURBODY.”
Just a week after she welcomed her baby, the podcast host took to Instagram to send a message to her followers.
“A few things because honestly I’m so frustrated and I need to vent this,” she wrote in December 2018. “I wanted to post this photo (showing my stomach) because I wanted to show my journey back to healthy and my goodness I’m so glad I didn’t which is why this photo is now cropped. It’s amazing the comments and how rude some people can be from my last photo I took yesterday. A few things, no I didn’t get a tummy tuck, no I don’t have a personal chef, no I don’t have fortunes so I didn’t train everyday. Yes I had a c section, yes I am still in pain and on meds but I do have a high pain tolerance. I have had 3 stomach surgeries before this (appendix, gallbladder, and c section).. In that photo I had a belly bandit wrapped tightly, and high waisted pants and wow here I am defending myself. Why?!? If I would have posted the photo of my actual stomach in this photo I would have probably been shamed too even when I was wanting to be vulnerable with my journey. Why do we women have to compare ourselves to each other and then shame? I say this to myself as much as I say this to y’all…why can’t it be that we are all different. Our bodies are all beautiful and crafted differently, they heal different, they react different, they simply look different. Why do we need to shame someone for not looking a certain way? Or feel bad about ourselves for looking a certain way? Can we be kinder to ourselves and know that every women has a different journey but yet we are all beautiful? Can we lift women up but not tear yourself down in the process with comparing? Let’s give that a try…..I love y’all. Back to my baby.”

The tribe that is CBS has spoken, and Survivor is getting the animated comedy treatment.
An animated Survivor movie set in the animal kingdom is in the works at Paramount Animation, the reality competition series’ longtime host Jeff Probst enthusiastically announced Wednesday.
“I’m so excited to be teaming up with Paramount Animation to bring you Survivor like you’ve never seen it before…in the animal kingdom!” wrote Probst on Instagram. “This will be an all-out comedy with animals competing for the chance to be crowned the sole Survivor. Let’s go!!!!”
Probst said in the video that the movie will have “everything we love about Survivor: big personalities, funny characters, surprising alliances, competition, chaos, and of course, a lot of heart. But this time, the players aren’t humans.”
The film’s official synopsis reads, “Set on a remote and mystical island, animals from all around the globe compete for a once-in-a-lifetime chance to be crowned the sole Survivor.”
Probst serves as executive producer on the film, with Banijay, Amazon MGM and CBS as rightsholders.
Premiering in 2000, the show’s milestone Survivor 50 season finale marked the franchise’s most-watched in six years, with 5.78M live + same-day viewers.
New seasons of Survivor are currently filming in Fiji, set to air this Fall.

Tom Dreesen, the classy comedian who opened for Frank Sinatra for 14 years, pushed for stand-ups to get paid at The Comedy Store and partnered in a pioneering interracial act with Tim Reid, died Wednesday. He was 86.
Dreesen died at his home in Los Angeles, a family spokesperson told The Hollywood Reporter. No cause of death was revealed.
The pride of Chicago, Dreesen made hundreds of TV appearances during his 50-plus years in show business, including dozens on The Tonight Show Starring Johnny Carson and on the late-night programs hosted by David Letterman, his dear friend from their days in the 1970s at The Comedy Store in West Hollywood.
“Tom was the first comedian I met at Comedy Store in 1975,” Letterman said in a statement. “We became friends immediately. He had wisdom and endless stories. Everyone admired him, looked up to him and wondered if he ever stopped talking. He never did, he never will. We love him for that. We’ll miss the stories. God bless you Tom.”
Always thought-provoking but never controversial, few were better at delivering a joke.
“I don’t know if you know this or not, but in 1871 in baseball, men started wearing the cup to protect the family jewels,” Dreesen quipped during a gig at the Laugh Factory. “In 1971, it became mandatory to wear a helmet. It took men 100 years to realize the brain is important also.”
After warming up audiences for the likes of Liza Minnelli, Smokey Robinson, Gladys Knight and Sammy Davis Jr., the always dapper Dreesen began sharing a bill with Sinatra in 1983 and shared a special camaraderie with the Chairman of the Board during the singer’s twilight years.
As Dreesen explained it during a 2014 interview with The Desert Sun, it was a mixture of serendipity and quick wit that landed him his highest-profile gig.
The comic had opened for Robinson in Lake Tahoe and was running through the lobby to see Sinatra headlining next door when he was stopped by Holmes Hendrickson, a vice president of Harrah’s, and introduced to Mickey Rudin.
“I recognized the name as Frank’s lawyer, and [Hendrickson] said, ‘Tom would make a great opening act for Sinatra,’” Dreesen recalled. “[Rudin] said, ‘Hey, kid, if I gave you a week with Frank, would you want more than $50,000?’ I said, ‘Mr. Rudin, put it this way. If you gave me a week with Frank, would you want more than $50,000?’ He said, ‘I like this kid.’”
Dreesen soon was opening for Sinatra in Atlantic City, and he never imagined the impact it would have on his life. “I thought, ‘Yeah, I’ll go one week. I’ll get my picture taken and I’ll hang it in every bar back in Chicago and that will be the end of that,’” he said.
“On the second night, Frank and his wife, Barbara, took me to dinner, and in the middle of dinner he put down his knife and his fork. He said, ‘Kid, I like your material. I like your style. I’d like you to do a few other dates with me if you’re interested.’ I said, ‘Yeah!’ and it turned into 14 years, 45 to 50 cities a year.”
The two developed a deep friendship, and Dreesen often visited Sinatra at his compound in Palm Springs. He served as a pall bearer and spoke at the entertainer’s funeral in 1998 and for years hosted the Frank Sinatra Celebrity Invitational Black Tie Gala.
“If he loved you, he worshiped the ground you walked on,” Dreesen said. “In a lot of ways, he was like a father to me. I didn’t have a father that really cared that much where I was and what I did. But Frank would give me advice and counsel and then he was a buddy in a lot of ways. I thought the world of him.”
Before he met Sinatra, Dreesen led a charge that changed the course of comedy.
For years, stand-up was centered in New York and Las Vegas, but that all changed in 1972 when Carson brought The Tonight Show from Manhattan to Los Angeles. Suddenly, The Comedy Store on Sunset Boulevard became the place to be seen.
Run by Mitzi Shore, who was given the club as part of a divorce settlement with her husband, Sammy Shore, The Comedy Store became a kind of college for comedians. And because she was giving them such a valuable opportunity, she believed there was no need to pay them. Dreesen, in the process of establishing his career, disagreed.
“I told Mitzi, ‘You pay the waiters, you pay the waitresses, you pay the guy who cleans the toilets. Why don’t you at least pay the comedians?’” Dreesen told Richard Zoglin in an interview for the 2008 book Comedy at the Edge: How Stand-Up in the 1970s Changed America.
He spoke with Shore about one comic who had been on her stage on New Year’s Eve. “He said, ‘It was fantastic. I killed ’em,’” Dreesen said. “And then he said, ‘Tom, can you loan me $5 for breakfast?’ I told Mitzi that story, and she said, ‘Well, he should get a goddamn job.’ I said, ‘Mitzi, he has a job. He worked for you on New Year’s Eve.’”
When Shore refused to cut the comedians in on her profits, Dreesen, drawing upon his days as a Chicago teamster, organized a strike in 1979. Letterman, Garry Shandling and Jay Leno were among those parading in front of the club waving placards that read, “NO MONEY, NO FUNNY” and “THE YUK STOPS HERE.”
After six contentious weeks and a tension-filled confrontation that saw an anti-strike comic drive his car into the picket line, Shore caved. “Mitzi called me 10 minutes later and said, ‘Let’s settle this thing right now,’” said Dreesen.
The Comedy Store started paying performers, New York clubs followed suit, and places around the country began offering more to comics. Dreesen’s leadership was instrumental in transforming the business of stand-up.
Dreesen was born on Sept. 11, 1939, in Harvey, Illinois. His father, Walter, was a trumpet player who met his future wife, Glenore, when he joined a band led by her brother-in-law, Frank Polizzi. Polizzi also owned a neighborhood bar, and Dreesen’s mom worked there as a bartender.
One of eight children, Dreesen grew up poor. His dad worked factory jobs to make ends meet but drank and gambled away most of his paycheck. Eventually, however, Dreesen learned that the man he thought was his uncle was actually his biological father.
As Rick Kogan of the Chicago Tribune wrote in 2019, “Dreesen was 12 when he said to Polizzi, ‘I think you’re my father. I look like you. I look like your son. And I don’t look like anybody in my family.’ There was quiet and then Polizzi said, ‘I am your father. But I need you to know I had affection for your mom and your mom had affection for me. I’m saying this because I don’t want you to think that we were some one-night stand.’”
When he was 17 and attending Thornton Township High School, Dreesen enlisted in the U.S. Navy and got three meals a day for the first time in his life. After the service, he meandered through jobs in construction and bartending and earned his union card on a Chicago loading dock.
While he was selling insurance, one of his brothers urged him to join the civic group known as the Jaycees. “That was when life began to change,” he said. “I was hanging around in bars where everybody moans and complains but does nothing about it. The Jaycees were gentlemen of action.”
The group recruited Dreesen and Reid, a Black marketing representative who had recently moved to Chicago from Virginia, to speak about a drug-education program geared toward grammar-school students. The pair realized that the funnier they were, the more responsive the kids were to their message. And then they formed a comedy act.
Tim & Tom made their debut in 1969 at a jazz club in South Chicago, and as the first interracial comedy team, they skewered racial stereotypes. One of their routines, “47th and Drexel,” had Reid teaching Dreesen about “being Black.”
“Hey, you got to pass a test before I turn you loose on some South Side of some city,” Reid tells Dreesen, instructing him to talk like a brother. “A looka here, Leroy,” Dreesen responds in an exaggerated jive voice. “Do the bus stop here?”
“What do you think this is, Amos ‘n’ Andy?” answers Reid. “Do the bus stop here?! You’re going to die of natural causes — some dude in a natural is going to kill you.”
Tim & Tom worked Playboy clubs, opened for George Clinton and Sha Na Na and appeared in 1971 on The David Frost Show. But they would encounter resistance.
“The fourth time we were onstage, a guy put a lit cigarette out on Tim’s face. Another guy beat the hell out of me. A year later, at the University of Illinois, I got hit in the face by an ice bar outside in the snow,” Dreesen said.
“If we worked a Black club where there was a Black guy who hated white people with a passion, he wasn’t mad at me. He was mad at Tim because he would be an Uncle Tom. We worked a white club where a redneck hated Black people, and he wasn’t mad at Tim, he was mad at me. In time, the frustration was too much. There are some people who profit by keeping the races apart. They ended up breaking up the act. They didn’t break up the friendship.”
After the split, Dreesen did solo stand-up and Reid found stardom as the velvety-voiced radio DJ Venus Flytrap on the CBS sitcom WKRP in Cincinnati (Dreesen would guest star on a 1982 episode). The duo’s story was told in Ron Rapoport’s 2008 book, Tim & Tom: An American Comedy in Black and White.
Meanwhile, Dreesen got laughs on everything from American Bandstand and Soul Train to The Jim Nabors Show and The Dean Martin Celebrity Roast; was a fixture on such game shows as Hollywood Squares, Match Game and The $10,000 Pyramid; played himself in the 1998 HBO movie The Rat Pack; and appeared on the big screen in They Call Me Bruce? (1982), Spaceballs (1987) and Man on the Moon (1999).
His autobiography, Still Standing: My Journey From Streets and Saloons to the Stage, and Sinatra — complete with a foreword from Letterman, who wrote that Dreesen “has entertained every president from Trump to Oprah” — was published in 2020.
He appeared just last week on CBS’ Comics Unleashed With Byron Allen.
Survivors include his daughters, Amy and Jennifer, from his 1958-84 marriage to Maryellen Subock, and seven grandchildren. His son, Tommy, predeceased him.
