 Meta to end end-to-end encryption for Instagram direct messages Meta is ending end-to-end encryption for Instagram direct messages, a feature the company says will no longer be available after May 8, 2026. Unlike WhatsApp, Instagram never offered encryption to all users or as a default; only select users in certain regions could opt in on a per-chat basis. A Meta spokesperson explained that the decision comes due to low adoption. “Very few people were opting in to end-to-end encrypted messaging in DMs, so we’re removing this option from Instagram in the coming months,” the spokesperson said. “Anyone who wants to keep messaging with end-to-end encryption can easily do that on WhatsApp.” Meta’s messaging strategy has shifted multiple times over the years.

RENOVATIONS ARE UNDERWAY AT MARSH FARM ON THE SANDRINGHAM ESTATE, REPORTEDLY PRINCE ANDREW'S NEXT RESIDENCE FOLLOWING HIS DEPARTURE FROM ROYAL LODGE IN WINDSOR.(PHOTO).


 Renovations are underway at Marsh Farm on the Sandringham Estate, reportedly Prince Andrew's next residence following his departure from Royal Lodge in Windsor.

 Workers have been spotted at the property installing updates and making improvements to prepare the home, which previously belonged to a tenant farmer and has been unoccupied for years. At least six workers were seen on site working both inside and outside the building despite winter weather conditions.


Prince Andrew gave 12 months' notice in October 2025 that he would surrender his lease on Royal Lodge, the 30-room property he has shared with Sarah Ferguson since 2004. A removal truck was spotted at Royal Lodge on January 14, and the couple must vacate by January 25, 2026. The move represents a significant downgrade from the 98-acre Royal Lodge estate, which includes a swimming pool, chapel, and multiple cottages.


Marsh Farm is located a few miles from Sandringham House, one of King Charles' private royal residences. The property features a main house with a gravel driveway, outbuildings, and a gated fence. According to reports, Sarah Ferguson will not be joining Andrew at Marsh Farm and is instead ready to pursue her own path. Any future accommodation arrangements will be privately funded by King Charles.
