The Great Petrol Panic & Royal Reality TV Rumours

It's all anyone's talking about: petrol. How much it's costing, how much there is to go around and how much worse are things going to get? Is the panic caused by this consequence of war in the Middle East warranted, considering the humanitarian crisis unfolding at the same time? And how do we keep our cool, particularly those of us in regional areas where public transport is a myth? Plus, Sarah Ferguson has been caught up in a controversy that is, frankly, bizarre even for the royals: she's been approached to clone and sell Queen Elizabeth's corgis for a reality TV show. Is cloning the late Queen's pets the ultimate side hustle or a bridge too far? In other business, noughties fashion icon Rachel Zoe is back in the algorithm, and she's hard launching her 'divorce era' on The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills . Is the 'Hot Divorcee' trope actually the most empowering thing on TV right now? And, we remember Married At First Sight expert Mel Schilling, who has passed away at 54. Her 'Why Not?' attitude and her work raising awareness of colon cancer is a legacy we're holding close today. As Mel was passionate about telling busy women: If something doesn't feel right, please, get it checked out.
