Jo Elvin, the living, breathing embodiment of The Devil Wears Prada’s Miranda Priestly (a fashion queen and ex-editor of Glamour), has reinvented herself as one half of the YouTube show The Royals Uncensored. Here she debates the problem with Meghan Markle’s celebrity, Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor’s continuing woes, as well as Brooklyn Beckham’s privilege and parents, plus her thoughts on why not sleeping well could split couples up – and why therapy and tolerance could be the answer to long-lasting relationships.
