Royal

Two men have been arrested in Australia for "acting suspiciously" just metres away from Britain's Duke and Duchess of Cambridge.
Prince William and Duchess Catherine were enjoying the first full day of their tour of Australia today (17.04.14), after arriving in Sydney yesterday afternoon (16.04.14), with a visit to the Blue Mountains, but local police officers were forced to detain two men who were said to be "acting suspiciously" just metres away from the royal couple.
Although William, 31, and Catherine, 32, did not appear to notice the disturbance, witnesses said they saw the two men get within 10 metres of the couple before being stopped, searched and detained by officers who ordered them to remove their clothing just as the royal car pulled away.
The New South Wales Police Force later confirmed in a statement that they had stopped and spoken to two men, aged 37 and 21, who were allegedly "harassing members of the crowd".
The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge were visiting the mountains to meet people who lost their homes in a tragic firestorm which caused bush fires to sweep through the region, destroying hundreds of homes, six months ago.

Britain's Prince of Wales' gardening tips will be revealed in a new book.
'Highgrove: A Garden Celebrated' will take readers inside the gardens of Prince Charles and his wife Duchess Camilla's country home in Gloucestershire, south west England and offer tips on how to recreate certain features, such as the Sundial and Carpet gardens, at their own homes.
The new book - which comes with photographs of the house and garden - is a joint project authored both by the Prince of Wales himself and landscape architect Bunny Guinness, who helped to build the gardens up from nothing.
The 65-year-old royal has spoken about the increasingly industrialised approach to gardening and farming and confessed he prefers more traditional methods.
He told the Daily Telegraph newspaper: "I minded terribly the more I though about things, the endless use of chemicals and in the long term felt that this was unsustainable.
"I wanted to restore lost habitats and plant lots of hedgerows and trees to heal the landscape."
The heir-to-the-throne added that he will continue to dabble in his hobby until he is no longer able.
He said: "I have put my heart and soul into Highgrove and I will continue to do so while I can ... My enduring hope is that those who visit the garden may find something to inspire, excite, fascinate or soothe them."

Britain's Duke and Duchess of Cambridge paid their respects to families affected by a bush fire in Australia as they visited the Blue Mountains today (17.04.14).
Prince William and his wife, the Duchess of Cambridge, met with residents of the Blue Mountains and apologised for the difficulties they've had to overcome as they try to rebuild their homes following a firestorm last year which destroyed over 200 homes, including more than half of the houses on Buena Vista Road in Winmalee.
Eartha Odell, a resident affected by the blaze, told the Blue Mountains Gazette newspaper: "They [William and Catherine] were very sincere in trying to understand our grief and very kind and warm and approachable to the children."
The 47-year-old woman said the couple - who have 8-month-old song Prince George together - felt at ease speaking with families.
She added: "For them to come out all this way to say hello and say, 'I'm sorry this happened to you', ... It didn't seem like a duty to them."
Prior to meeting with the families, William, 31, and Catherine, 32, listened in respect as David Jones - who is district manager of the Blue Mountains rural fire service - told them of the disaster and explained how it had destroyed thousands of square metres of land.

Britain's Prince George was presented with a giant wombat toy upon his arrival in Australia.
The nine-month-old tot has been pictured looking rather grumpy during his parents' royal tour Down Under, but finally cracked a smile today (16.04.14) when he was given a huge stuffed animal in the shape of the cuddly mammal, which is native to the Commonwealth county.
The adorable present came courtesy of the family's hosts, Sir Peter Cosgrove and his wife, Lady Cosgrove, at the Admiralty House across from the iconic Sydney Opera House.
The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge had just been reunited with baby George after their first official engagement in Australia, held at the Opera House.
According to People magazine, giving a speech in front of 400 young entrepreneurs, sportspeople, charity workers and society leaders, William said: "The affection that my grandmother, the Queen, has for this nation is infectious ... Her Majesty spoke recently of how, since her first visit here 60 years ago, she has been privileged to witness Australia's growing economy and flowering self-confidence.
"For Catherine, Harry and me, born in the early '80s, we've never known anything else - Australia and Australians have always been for us a beacon of confidence, creativity in the arts and sporting ability."
William and Catherine flew into Sydney earlier today after wrapping up their stay in New Zealand. The duchess was sporting a striking yellow dress, which her husband candidly likened to "a banana".

Britain's Duke of Cambridge spoke of his late mother Princess Diana's love for Australia as he arrived in the country this afternoon (16.04.14).
Prince William, his wife Duchess Catherine and their 8-month-old son Prince George arrived in Sydney, Australia this afternoon and travelled to the Sydney Opera House where William spoke of his mother's love for the country and praised the nation.
Addressing the guests at a reception held for the couple's arrival, he said: "This visit to Australia has been one that Catherine and I have been looking forward to for a long time.
"Australia and Australians have always been for us a beacon of confidence, creativity in the arts and sporting ability.
"My mother's deep affection for Australia - which you were so kind to reciprocate - needs no reminder."
The 31-year-old royal - whose mother died in a car crash in 1997 - also joked that his son may utter his first word while visiting the country, saying that he and Catherine thought it might be "bilby" or "koala", which are both animals native to Australia.
He added: "We really look forward to our time here together as a family."
Following the reception, the Duke and Duchess were taken on a boat ride across the Sydney Harbour to Admiralty House, the official residence of the Governor General of Australia, according to HELLO! Magazine.

Zara Phillips wants to win a gold medal at the next Olympics.
The 32-year-old equestrian star - who is the daughter of Anne, Princess Royal - won a silver medal at the 2012 Olympics in London, but she's now admitted she has her sights set on gold at the upcoming 2016 Olympics in Brazil.
She told BBC News: "I think when we [the Great Britain eventing team] all came out of London we were like, 'Let's go again!' But unfortunately it's every four years so you've got to try and stay at the top level for the next four years and have good results, and yeah it would be fantastic to go to another Olympics.
"Yeah it's [silver] incredible but I definitely want to get a gold."
Zara - who has 11-week-old daughter Mia with her former rugby star husband Mike Tindall - returned to horse riding soon after giving birth but admitted it was a struggle to get back into shape.
She said: "I'm much more comfortable now. When I first got back on it was nice to get back in the saddle but I wasn't very stable because my muscles weren't working very well.
"Getting your body back is the hardest."

Britain's Prince Harry has been invited to sit on the front row at the Victoria's Secret fashion show later this year.
The lingerie brand, which is modelled by "Victoria's Angels", is set to bring its legendary annual catwalk show to London for the first time later this year, and veteran angel Adriana Lima announced at a press conference that she'd like to invite the flame-haired royal.
She said: "We're pretty excited to be here today because we have this great announcement to make.
"The Victoria's Secret Fashion Show is the biggest fashion event in the world, for sure, and we're very proud and honoured to announce that we are headed to London this year. Yes!
"I'd like to invite Prince Harry, if he would like to come. He definitely has a front row seat!"
The event has been held in cities including Cannes, Los Angeles, Miami and New York in the past but as it's been confirmed for the Prince's hometown the models hope he will make an appearance.
The 29-year-old royal is currently dating former dance student Cressida Bonas and although there have been rumours of an impending engagement, it was suggested recently that she may not be the right woman for him.
A source told E! Online: "They [Harry's family and friends] think she's too carefree and would find it difficult to live with the protocol that comes with the job, which of course it is. It might be too much of a constraint for her."

Britain's Prince George has been inundated with gifts during his visit to New Zealand.
The 8-month-old son of the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge - who is on his first royal tour and will soon head to Australia - has received dozens of presents from officials and members of the public.
There have been unusual and fun gifts handed to his parents, including a kangaroo backpack and a tiny vintage flying helmet, a favourite of his father's, given to him during a visit to Sir Peter Jackson's Knights of the Sky exhibition in Blenheim, which was made especially for the Prince out of leather and possum fur.
The little boy has also been handed a number of teddy bears, lavish gifts and plenty of books for his parent's to read to him at bedtime.
Nicola Legat, who was involved in organising a book competition between authors in the country, was thrilled to be able to give George a number of autographed books.
She told HELLO! Magazine: "By the time Prince George grows up, the Cambridge family will have a wonderful collection of New Zealand literature, all personally inscribed."
The royal couple will leave for Australia tomorrow (16.04.14) afternoon.
