Sky News contributor Emily Carver says Meghan Markle “always presents herself” as the “victim” in every situation. “Whether it’s a victim of racism, whether it’s a victim of sexism, whether it’s a victim of the nasty British people in the royal family,” Ms Carver said. Ms Markle “seems to think” she’s just “so much more special than anyone else,” Ms Carver told Sky News host Danica De Giorgio. “That whatever she says, whatever she thinks about a situation is the truth,” she said. “Both Harry and Meghan seem utterly unable to see things from anyone else’s perspective other than their own.”

Former Olympian Caitlyn Jenner has given a short but savage response to the news of former NFL running back OJ Simpson's death. The Pro Football Hall of Famer Simpson died at 76 after a battle with cancer, his family said in a post on X on Wednesday. He was best known for the sensational 'trial of the century' in 1994, where O.J. was famously acquitted of the brutal killings of his former wife Nicole Brown Simpson and her friend, Ron Goldman. Reacting to the news, Caitlyn Jenner wrote "Good riddance" in a post to X. Jenner has long been critical of Simpson, given her ex-wife Kris Jenner's close friendship with Simpson's ex-wife, Nicole Brown Simpson. In her 2017 memoir, Jenner described Simpson as "the most narcissistic, egocentric, neediest a-- in the world of sports" and suggested he was guilty of the murders, as per The Washington Post.

Shadow Foreign Minister Simon Birmingham has called for the Albanese government to clarify its stance on Palestinian statehood. Mr Birmingham claimed the government this week had created “immense confusion” over its stance on Israel and Palestine and a two-state solution. "The real questions for Penny Wong and Anthony Albanese to answer are whether they are proposing to shift Australia's policy from a negotiated two-state solution to a unilateral recognition for the state of Palestine,” Mr Birmingham told Sky News Australia. "And if they are doing so, whether that means they would undertake that unilateral recognition ahead of a negotiated settlement. "We've got a decades-long position in Australia of supporting a negotiated two-state solution, that is based on our strong recognition that the democratic state of Israel, a friend to Australia, has a right to exist.”

Sky News US analyst Michael Ware says he does not think it is a foregone conclusion that Iran will strike Israel at some point, as threats of retaliatory attacks from Iran grow. This follows the deaths of two senior Iranian officials in a suspected Israeli strike on its embassy in Syria. “A strike on Israel itself is very, very different to a strike on Israeli interests or Israeli assets,” Mr Ware told Sky News Australia. “Tehran knows that a rocket or other strike within Israel will be so provocative that it will blow up the entire region. “Yet, Tehran is allegedly reassuring countries in the region and the United States that ‘while we’re going to hit back, we’re not looking for a major escalation’.”
