Outlouders, Holly has a mea culpa for your Monday. This one involves Princess Kate, her hair, and the internet theories we all wish we hadn't read. Plus, we unpack the other big royal news. This time it's about Prince Harry and yes, it's got everyone talking.

And, are you scared of small talk? You're not alone. Amelia Lester’s bringing the actually useful tips to survive awkward 8am chats at work when you have zero to say. That noise you hear? Just Jessie and Holly scribbling notes as if their social lives depend on it (because they do).

Plus… is Pete Evans mainstream now? No, seriously. We don't know either. But he might be back in your feed — and it’s giving us emotional whiplash.
