From wicked stepmothers to ugly stepsisters, fairy tales have never been kind to "blended" royal families. But as the Queen Consort prepares to be crowned alongside the King on May 6, it has been revealed that the grandmother of five’s own family will play a part in the ceremony at Westminster Abbey – a move which speaks to a new era of equality behind palace walls. Camilla Tominey writes how "the blended nature of Charles and Camilla’s brood shows the world that life in the monarchy isn’t a fairytale existence, but a lived experience." Scroll down to read how the Royal family reshuffle reflects the realities of modern life.

Plus, discover the new luxury candle with a surprising yet familiar fragrance and find out why you shouldn't trust the photos you see of the Northern Lights.

Enjoy!
