King Charles speaks out after departure of longtime royal companion after 14 years of service
King Charles and his royal staffers have bid farewell to a longtime companion that had worked for the Firm for 14 years. Tyrone, a 19-year-old Windsor Grey horse, spent last week serving His Majesty for a final time — prompting Buckingham Palace to issue a touching statement in light of his retirement. 'After 14 years of noble service with the Royal Mews, we are celebrating Tyrone and wishing him a happy retirement,' the palace wrote on X. 5 King Charles and his royal staffers have bid farewell to a longtime companion that had worked for the Firm for 14 years. Getty Images Tyrone spent much of professional life pulling royal carriage during some of the monarchy's most significant moments, including royal weddings, state visits and even a coronation. The beloved animal's final ceremonial duty took place last month during French President Emmanuel Macron's state visit to the UK. Tyrone, who stands at 16 hands (or 6 feet tall), was described as a 'gentle and dependable giant' in the palace's poignant farewell message. He has now been reunited with his 26-year-old father, Storm, and 20-year-old sister, Meg — both of whom had served the royal family. 5 Tyrone, a 19-year-old Windsor Grey horse, spent last week serving His Majesty for a final time. Instagram/@theroyalfamily The trio will now stay put at the Horse Trust sanctuary in Buckinghamshire, England, where approximately 120 horses, ponies and mules reside. 5 In 2023, Tyrone drew the Diamond Jubilee State Coach that transported King Charles and Queen Camilla from Buckingham Palace to Westminster Abbey during their coronation. Getty Images 'All three horse were very dear to Her Late Majesty Queen Elizabeth II,' the post continued. 'Tyrone will be missed by everyone at the Royal Mews, but it's wonderful that he'll be reunited with his father and sister. Thank you, Tyrone!' The palace's sweet post was accompanied by a series of images of Tyrone's most memorable moments throughout the years. Over the 14 years he served the British royal family, the beloved Irish draught horse tallied some impressive moments in history to his portfolio. 5 Tyrone later drew Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's royal carriage during their 2018 wedding procession. AFP via Getty Images In 2023, Tyrone drew the Diamond Jubilee State Coach that transported King Charles and Queen Camilla from Buckingham Palace to Westminster Abbey during their historic coronation ceremony.

The following summer, Tyrone led Princess Catherine and her three children in the Glass State Coach during the Trooping the Colour ceremony. The horse's service kickstarted in 2012 when he pulled the late Queen Elizabeth II's carriage. He later drew Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's royal carriage during their 2018 wedding procession. 5 Tyrone, who stands at 16 hands (or 6 feet tall), was described as a 'gentle and dependable giant' in the palace's poignant farewell message. Instagram/@theroyalfamily As an official 'wheeler,' Tyrone was expected to undertake heavy pulling work while remaining on his best behavior in front of large masses of people. The Windsor Grey has long been preferred by the British royals since Queen Victoria's era, and have attended some of the most important dates in the royal calendar over the decades.

Browns reporter takes savage shot at Bill Belichick-Jordon Hudson romance in Hall of Fame speech
Browns beat reporter Mary Kay Cabot took a brutal jab at Bill Belichick's highly publicized romance with 24-year-old girlfriend Jordon Hudson on Friday when she accepted the Bill Nunn Memorial Award during the Pro Football Hall of Fame Gold Jacket Dinner in Canton, Ohio. Cabot, who began covering the Browns in 1991, the same year Belichick, 73, took over as coach in Cleveland, first joked about going through the wringer with the future Hall of Famer. 'Bill Belichick was the first Browns coach I ever covered,' Cabot began, as covered by Awful Announcing. 'You see, if you start out with Bill Belichick, no one can rattle you after that. If Bill didn't like something I wrote, he'd call and yell at me. If you asked a dumb question, he'd call you out. Eventually, I had to learn to stand up to him. During one of those yelling matches, I told him, if you don't have the 'footballs' to say that to the guys, then don't say it to me. Bam.' Advertisement 4 Bill Belichick's relationship with Jordon Hudson was referenced in Mary Kay Cabot's speech in August 2025. Getty Images That's when Cabot's speech pivoted to the UNC coach's widely scrutinized personal life. Advertisement 'But now, I totally understand why Bill gave me such a hard time. I was 28 at the time, and he just couldn't relate to a woman that old,' Cabot said as the audience roared with laughter. Although many on social media also chuckled over Cabot's zinger, the remarks didn't appear to please everyone. 4 Mary Kay Cabot speaks at the 2025 Pro Football Hall of Fame Gold Jacket Dinner on Aug. 1, 2025. Scott Galvin-Imagn Images 4 Bill Belichick and Jordon Hudson went public with their relationship in 2024. Getty Images Advertisement On Saturday, Hudson's X account reposted a message from a separate user that read: 'Not much of a 'laugh.' No wonder so many have contempt for the media, especially those who want to be the story rather than [report] on the story.' Belichick's romance with Hudson was first revealed in June 2024. 4 Bill Belichick is preparing for his first season as football coach of the Tar Heels. AP Their relationship has largely been under a microscope following a disastrous 'CBS Sunday Morning' interview in April, when Hudson pushed back on a question intended for Belichick about how they met. Advertisement Amid speculation about her role in Belichick's personal and professional endeavors, the eight-time Super Bowl-winning coach made it clear in May that Hudson does not 'have anything to do with UNC football.' Belichick and the Tar Heels open the 2025 season against TCU on Sept. 1.
