Eagle-eyed fans spot interesting detail as Kate and William meet Apple boss
The Prince and Princess of Wales often hold behind-closed-doors meetings, but fans have been given an insight into the inner workings of Team Cambridge after photos emerged of one special get-together. Apple CEO Tim Cook revealed that he met Prince William and Kate during a special meeting at Windsor Castle, and shared several pictures of their chat. One snap shows him posing alongside the royal couple while another shows him and William in deep conversation.
And eagle-eyed royal fans have spotted one surprising detail in the photo of Mr Cook and William's encounter that has them convinced the Apple boss did not show up to Windsor Castle for their conversation emptied-handed.

One wrote on X: "Would love a sneak peek of what is in those apple bags?", while one pondered: "Delivering iphone 15s in person?" Meanwhile, another eagle-eyed fan said: "All those Apple bags on the table! I hope you brought them some new iPhones?"
In his post on X, Mr Cook revealed what he talked to the royal couple about at the meeting and described meeting with them a "true honour". He added: "We had a wonderful and wide-ranging discussion about the environment, mental health, and other issues that mean a great deal to all of us."

The third annual awards are taking place next month in Singapore - but it has been revealed that Kate will not be joining William for the event.
Kate has attended every awards ceremony since they began two years ago, but royal sources have confirmed she has made the decision to stay at home due to the couple's eldest son George sitting exams in the same week.

Prince George has exams that week and the Princess wants to be at home to support him." The Mirror revealed earlier last week that Kate would miss the awards as she did not want to disturb her children's schooling.
Kensington Palace has refused to comment on what exams future King George, 10, will be taking. However, the preliminary entrance exams for Eton College, known as ISEBs, occur at that time as the Earthshot Prize during the first week of November. Several other elite private schools also use the exams.
George has been spotted visiting Eton, which his father William and uncle Prince Harry both attended and is widely expected to attend the school. He is currently a pupil at Lambrook Primary School, along with his younger siblings Charlotte and Louis. Lambrook, however, only teaches students until age 13.
The Prince and Princess of Wales were spotted in June touring the campus with their eldest son. It's possible that in three years, the young prince will attend the all-boys school, which is located near Windsor Castle, where the family now live after leaving Kensington Palace.
