Meanwhile, Kate Middleton was left at home with the couple’s young children.
In an exclusive interview with The Daily Telegraph, the 24-year-old model’s mother Joni insisted her daughter was a “girl of integrity”.
“Sophie said they met and had a few drinks,” the Wamberal mother revealed. “She said he was lovely and a down to earth person.”
Joni said her daughter was “in shock” at the media reaction.

Republicans threatening to expose Donald Trump as the emperor with no clothes
Late Monday, a spokesman for House Intelligence Committee Chairman Devin Nunes (Republican-California) threatened to subpoena the Trump administration to produce evidence of Trump’s claim that President Barack Obama wiretapped Trump Tower during the campaign. The White House has declined to produce this evidence publicly, offering various excuses, including the Constitution’s separation of powers and – most recently on Monday – arguing that Trump wasn’t speaking literally when he made the claim.
The Justice Department missed Nunes’s deadline to provide evidence Monday, which drew Nunes’s subpoena threat.
“If the committee does not receive a response, the committee will ask for this information during the March 20 hearing and may resort to a compulsory process if our questions continue to go unanswered,” Nunes spokesman Jack Langer said…

Journalist says it’s ‘possible’ Trump leaked tax documents
President Donald Trump might have leaked his own tax returns because they were stamped ‘Client Copy’, according to Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist David Cay Johnston, who says he received the 2005 document anonymously.
Johnston told MSNBC’s Rachel Maddow that it’s ‘entirely possible’ Trump sent out the documents, since they appeared to paint the president in a favorable light.
‘By the way, let me point out that it’s entirely possible that Donald Trump sent this to me. Donald Trump has, over the years, leaked all sorts of things,’ the DCReport.org founder, who received the document by mail, said.
A stamp reading ‘Client Copy’ is visible on one of the two pages of the 1040 document sent to Johnston.

Heart attack fears over use of common painkillers
Common painkillers taken by millions of Britons can raise the risk of a heart attack by up to 50 percent, researchers have found.
And one, diclofenac, is so dangerous it should not be taken at all, one expert warned.
Others such as ibuprofen, which is sold over the counter in the UK, are not ‘harmless’ and should be used with caution.
Diclofenac and ibuprofen – taken for back pain, headaches, arthritis, period pains and other ailments – were associated with a 50 percent and 31 percent increased risk, respectively.
The findings follow research last year which showed patients who regularly take the painkillers are up to 20 percent more likely to develop heart failure.
