This video of Kate quickly tying her long hair into a bun<\/a> without using a band or other accessory went viral. It proves a few things: The speed at which she accomplishes this feat shows she\u2019s done this more than a few times; and I and others with straight silky hair can only envy the princess\u2019s thicker curlier locks, as such a bun would come undone within seconds had I attempted it in the long-hair phase of my youth.<\/p>\n

Instagram and fashion sites were quickly filled with how-to instructions, including <\/a>Glamour<\/a>. So if you have hair similar to that of Kate \u2013 enjoy!<\/p>\n

Prince William was in the London area of Lambeth to continue his efforts of helping youth and those who have experienced homelessness. It\u2019s a joint effort between his Duchy of Cornwall and the charity Centrepoint, of which he\u2019s the patron.<\/p>\n

According to the Office of National Statistics, the average price of an apartment<\/a> in Lambeth is \u00a3458,000 (CAD$860,000) while the average monthly rent is \u00a32,417 (CAD$4,500), sums completely out of the range of the vast majority of young people.<\/p>\n

He visited a building that his Duchy of Cornwall is turning into 16 independent homes for young people who have experienced homelessness. The site in the London borough of Lambeth is set to open in late 2026 and, as the palace explains, is designed to be:<\/p>\n

\u2026 a bridge between supported accommodation and the private rented sector. Centrepoint will manage the homes, expanding their Independent Living Programme, which aims to break the cycle of homelessness. As well as being provided to young people already employed, a number of the homes will be allocated to those moving towards employment, to test a new model to get people into housing and jobs at the same time. Homewards will support residents here, identifying employment opportunities to sustain tenancies.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
