Mandy Moore has officially completed her own “Big Three”!

The This Is Us star, 40, announced on Instagram that she and husband Taylor Goldsmith have welcomed their third child, a baby girl named Louise Everett Goldsmith. In a touching black-and-white photo from the hospital, Moore shared the joyous news.

“Lou is here,” Moore wrote. “Louise Everett Goldsmith arrived happy, healthy, expeditiously, and right in time for Virgo season.” 

The new mom-of-three added that their daughter is “our absolute dream girl,” and her big brothers, August and Oscar, are already smitten with their little sister.

“Endlessly grateful for our family of 5 (and our very own big three),” she added, referencing her famous role on This Is Us.

Moore first revealed her pregnancy in May, excitedly sharing that she was expecting a baby girl. “Sometimes life imitates art,” she wrote at the time, alluding to her on-screen role as a mother of three.

The arrival of baby Louise is particularly special for Moore, who once feared she wouldn’t be able to have children. The actress previously revealed that doctors suspected she had endometriosis and had a “slim chance” of conceiving, making the birth of her children all the more miraculous.

This year, Prince Harry celebrated his 40th birthday, and to everyone’s surprise, both King Charles and Prince William recognised the occasion. 

King Charles extended his birthday wishes through the official Royal Family social media account, stating, “Wishing The Duke of Sussex a very happy 40th birthday today!”

In a slightly different manner, Prince William and Kate, the Princess of Wales, opted not to create their own post. 

Instead, they simply shared the Royal Family’s message on their Instagram story, adding the caption, “Wishing a Happy 40th Birthday to the Duke of Sussex.” The wording was almost identical.

Notably, the birthday message did not appear on the Wales’s Instagram grid, meaning it disappeared from their stories after just 24 hours. 

For both King Charles and Prince William, this gesture was significant, as they had not acknowledged Harry’s birthday for the previous three years. Many speculate that this may be an olive branch.

These birthday greetings come in the wake of years of family tension, particularly following Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s decision to step back from royal duties and their subsequent tell-all interview with Oprah Winfrey.

Royal correspondent Rob Jobson suggested that the posts were motivated more by necessity than affection. He told Sunrise: “They would have gotten more bother if they hadn’t done it, so by doing it they cover themselves,” [It would have been nicer] if it had been a bit more brotherly … rather than ‘we wish the Duke of Sussex a good day’, I think he could have been more personal. But it is better than nothing.”

Harry is set to return to the UK later this month for the national 2024 WellChild Awards in London. 

There’s a possibility we might witness a long-awaited meeting between Prince Harry and King Charles, as the King’s schedule was too packed during Harry’s last visit to the UK.

King Charles and Queen Camilla, who are gearing up for their much-anticipated trip to Australia and Samoa, look stunning in newly released photos.

The Royal Family and Elephant Family’s social media accounts jointly shared adorable pictures of the King and Queen with a message.

The iconic photos of the couple were captioned: “This September we celebrate 10 years of The King and Queen as Joint Royal Presidents of @ElephantFamily, the charity founded in 2002 by Her Majesty’s late brother, Mark Shand.”

It added: “Continuing his legacy and passion for conservation, the charity works with local communities to protect elephants and other wildlife, by restoring biodiversity, supporting coexistence and monitoring habitats across 560,188 acres in South Asia.”

Elephant family reportedly works in partnership with home grown, in-country conservation experts on the ground to tackle the challenges facing Asia’s wildlife and the indigenous communities that live alongside them.

Princess Anne recently travelled to Scotland, following the visit of Princess Kate and Prince William. 

Known for her busy schedule of public engagements across the UK and abroad, the Princess Royal returned to Scotland on Tuesday. 

This visit comes just days after the Prince and Princess of Wales attended church with the King and Queen at Balmoral.

The royals frequently visit Crathie Kirk while staying at Balmoral, where Anne married her second husband, Vice Admiral Sir Tim Laurence, in 1992. 

Not far from there is the University of St Andrews, where William and Kate met in 2001, and where Lady Louise Windsor is currently studying English.

During her time in Scotland, Princess Anne, 74, attended a Food and Farming Day at Solsgirth Home Farm in Dollar and visited Hugh Black and Sons Limited butchers in Stirling. 

A local boutique, Stons Stirling, shared footage of the Princess in a red jacket and black trousers, warmly greeted by His Majesty’s Lord-Lieutenant of Stirling and Falkirk, Alan Simpson.

As President of the Scotch Chef’s Club, Anne also visited the independent butcher shop. 

Despite her busy schedule, she did not have time to see her brother, King Charles, or Queen Camilla, as she returned to London on Tuesday evening to host a dinner at St James’s Palace for Opportunity International UK.

The Princess’s visit to Scotland followed her recent trip to the Netherlands with Sir Timothy Laurence, where they attended a service commemorating the 80th anniversary of the Battle of Arnhem. 

Later this week, Anne will travel to France to open the Loos British Cemetery Extension in Loos-en-Gohelle in her capacity as President of the Commonwealth War Graves Commission.
