Meghan Markle reportedly reviving old disguise tactics after UK visit

Meghan Markle appears to have returned to a familiar playbook, one she and Prince Harry relied on long before their wedding, following the couple’s recent trip to Britain. Details of this renewed strategy were shared with royal commentator Rob Shuter by sources close to the couple in Montecito.

Writing in his column ‘Naughty But Nice’, Shuter reports that Markle has taken to wearing disguises nearly every time she leaves her home, a habit that reportedly picked up steam after her meeting with King Charles during the UK visit.

According to insiders who spoke with Shuter, Markle has become notably dedicated to staying inconspicuous. Disguises are now said to be a standard part of her routine whenever she ventures beyond the gates of the Montecito property she shares with Harry. The getup reportedly includes wigs, baseball caps, loose-fitting sweatshirts, baggy trousers, and sunglasses so large they practically double as protective eyewear.

A source close to Markle explained that recognition is exactly what she is trying to avoid, insisting that every element of her look is deliberate. The wig, the cap, the sunglasses, each piece is reportedly chosen with the specific goal of letting her move through public spaces without drawing attention.

Interestingly, the source noted that this low-profile approach seems to have paid off during her recent UK trip. Despite the visit, Markle wasn’t photographed a single time, and the trip reportedly passed with minimal public attention, a rare feat given the usual scrutiny surrounding her movements.

This is no new territory for the couple, though. Sources indicate that blending in has long been part of Markle and Harry’s shared approach to navigating public life, dating back to the earliest days of their relationship. Long before the world knew they were a couple, the pair reportedly attended a Halloween party in Toronto while in costume, a tactic that let them spend time together without being recognized.

Harry, too, has spoken openly in the past about his own efforts to experience everyday life without the weight of royal recognition following him everywhere he goes.

Taken together, the pattern suggests that as royal attention around the family continues, both Markle and Harry appear to be leaning on strategies that predate their public relationship, ones built around discretion, anonymity, and staying several steps removed from the spotlight.

    Congo Ebola outbreak surpasses 1,000 deaths at record pace

    Data from the Ministry of Health in the Democratic Republic of the Congo reveals that the ongoing Ebola outbreak declared on 15 May has killed over 1,000 people in just over two months. This marks the fastest-spreading outbreak of the virus on record, reaching 1,000 fatalities nearly three times quicker than the 2014–2016 West Africa epidemic. As of Tuesday, the country has recorded 2,536 confirmed cases and 1,033 deaths, with the case fatality rate standing at 40 per cent. Unlike the 2014–2016 epidemic driven by the more common Ebola virus, the current surge is caused by the rare Bundibugyo virus, for which there are no approved vaccines or targeted therapeutic treatments. The outbreak remains largely concentrated across five eastern provinces near the Ugandan border. Health officials warn that the peak may still lie ahead due to late patient presentations, initial delays in identifying the strain, and a high proportion of new cases emerging outside monitored contact lists.

    Search for survivors intensifies after devastating 7.1-magnitude earthquake strikes southern Japan

    Emergency responders in southwestern Japan are racing against time to locate survivors trapped in rubble following a powerful 7.1-magnitude earthquake that killed at least 13 people in the Kumamoto region of Kyushu island. The powerful tremor, which struck at a shallow depth of ten kilometres, flattened residential homes, triggered severe fires, ruptured critical bridges, and cut electricity to nearly 37,000 households. Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi confirmed the death toll during an official address in Tokyo, while chief cabinet spokesman Minoru Kihara noted that at least seven individuals suffered severe injuries and more than 9,000 residents sought safety across hundreds of emergency evacuation shelters. Search operations remain heavily concentrated in the town of Kashima, where part of the Aeon Mall collapsed after a gas explosion ripped through the structure shortly after the primary quake. Rescue teams in specialised gear navigated twisted steel girders and fallen concrete inside the shopping centre, where at least two women lost their lives and eight others were pulled from the debris. Meanwhile, in Yatsushiro city, search crews continue to look for nine workers unaccounted for at a Nippon Paper Industries plant after a large smokestack collapsed onto the facility below. The seismic shock registering at the maximum level on Japan’s intensity scale caused widespread logistical disruption across Kyushu island, derailing a cargo train, suspending high-speed bullet train lines, and causing structural collapses at the historic centuries-old Kumamoto Castle. In response, the Japanese military has deployed 3,600 personnel alongside 20 reconnaissance aircraft to support disaster relief efforts, clear impassable roads, and assess localised damage in remote communities.

    Bangkok’s original name has 168 characters

    Did you know that the city with the world’s longest official name is also one of the most famous cities on Earth? Interestingly, the name by which most people know this city is not its official name. The city is Bangkok, the capital of Thailand whose full ceremonial name consists of 168 characters. If you ever visit Thailand, you are unlikely to hear local residents recite the full name as even many of them cannot remember it. The city’s full ceremonial name is Krungthepmahanakhonamonrattanakosinmahintharaayuthayamahadilokphopnoppharatratchathaniburiromudomratchaniwetmahasathanamonpimanawatansathitsakkathattiyawitsanukamprasit. Bangkok’s official ceremonial name is recognized by Guinness World Records as the longest place name in the world. If you find it impossible to remember, you’re certainly not alone. The city also has a shorter official name in Thai: Krung Thep Maha Nakhon which is commonly shortened further by locals to simply Krung Thep. In 2022, the Thai government announced that both Krung Thep Maha Nakhon and Bangkok would be accepted as official Romanized names for the capital. The 168-character ceremonial name is derived from Sanskrit and Pali and its shorter form roughly translates to “The Great City of Angels.” However, historians are still uncertain why such an extraordinarily long ceremonial name was originally adopted. How did name “Bangkok” come about? According to popular accounts, the name Bangkok predates the establishment of the city as Thailand’s capital. It is believed to have originated from the area’s former village or district name possibly derived from the Thai words “Bang” (a village or riverside settlement) and “Makok” referring to a type of wild plum or olive tree that once grew abundantly in the area. Over time, the name Bang Makok is thought to have evolved into Bangkok, the name by which the city became known internationally.
