Princes William and Harry's childhood nanny, Tiggy Legge-Bourke, is believed to be receiving a “substantial payout” from the BBC over its dodgy Panorama interview with Princess Diana, which rocked the monarchy to its foundations in 1995. An investigation revealed that journalist Martin Bashir had dishonestly convinced Diana that her thenhusband Prince Charles was in love with Tiggy, 57, prompting her to give the emotionally charged interview. It has also been alleged that Martin showed Diana a fake receipt for an abortion involving Tiggy, prompting Diana to hiss, “Sorry to hear about the baby,” to her sons’ carer at a palace Christmas party. Sources say the tension between Diana and Tiggy “blighted Prince William's childhood, as he was close to both women – a fact Bashir well knew”. The insider adds,…

Sharing a stunning image to Instagram, Nathan, 34, wore a black tuxedo next to Emma, who looked glamorous in a beaded white gown. He captioned the photo “Mr and Mrs”. It's not know who attended the wedding or where it was held, with the scanty details perhaps due to the fierce backlash the couple received after his messy divorce from ex-wife Mel Waring rocked the sporting world in 2017. Nathan is said to have met Emma shortly after his split from Mel, who he shares children Milla and Harper with, however controversy ensued when…

Book corner Our Books Editor Wade Sellers gives us his fave pick for the week! It was my twenty-first birthday. Some of my work colleagues took me out for drinks and presented me with a beautiful new suit. They'd all chipped in for this special birthday present. It was a fancy suit – well, fancier than what I'd been wearing up to that point. I was a reporter on Tv, but I had a terrible wardrobe. I had a network clothing allowance these days, but I'd sneakily concluded that if I borrowed Dad's clothes for work, I could use it to buy surfboards instead. Clothes weren't important to me, surfboards were. I think buying me the suit was like a fashion intervention. I was wearing Dad's doublebreasted, wide-lapelled jacket and…

He was found fully clothed with a coded note and a book of Persian poetry on Adelaide's Somerton Beach in 1948, but police were unable to identify the mystery man for decades, despite multiple appeals and investigations. Now DNA evidence proves conclusively the Somerton Man is Carl “Charles” Webb, a 43-year-old electrical engineer and instrument maker from Footscray. University of Adelaide Professor Derek Abbott used hair from a plaster cast police made of his face in 1948 to build a family tree profile linking the dead man's DNA to Carl's distant relatives, who are still alive today. “By filling out this tree, we managed to find a first cousin three times removed on his mother's side,” Professor Abbott told CNN as excitement over the 74-year search to unmask the Somerton…
