Queen Camilla Had Questioned Kate Middleton’s Heritage
New revelations from a royal biography suggest Queen Camilla once had deep reservations about Kate and William’s marriage. According to author Christopher Anderson, the Queen saw the future Princess as below the salt.
And it was due to a lack of aristocratic lineage. During the early years of the royal courtship, Queen Camilla was one of the most brutal critics regarding the choice of a future Queen.
She believes that a future King should marry a royal personage or at the very least, a member of the British aristocracy. There was a belief that someone without aristocratic blood was not up to snuff for the demanding role of a senior royal. Kate and William’s wedding at Westminster Abbey captivated billions of viewers globally. However, these insights suggest the path to the altar was not easy.
But despite these early tensions, the Princess of Wales has proven that she’s an invaluable asset to the Crown. And especially during the recent health challenges facing the family. In fact, now the Queen and the Princess frequently appear together at major diplomatic events. Also, many observers believe that Kate has navigated this ruthless environement through purpose driven public image.
Prince William Shows A Ruthless Streak
There have also been reports shedding light on Prince William’s personality. Many people describe the heir to the throne as someone capable of a ruthless streak and prone to holding grudges. Elsewhere, commentators say that Prince has always taken a firm stance on loyalty. Hence, it has contributed to the starkest example of the divide with Prince Harry and Meghan Markle.
Even the Duke of Sussex is worried about a future under his brother’s reign. Expert Tom Bower suggests that Harry fears being literally banished once the King passes away. Also, William is often praised for his grace and power in public. However, these reports say that he has a more guarded figure behind the scenes.
Reportedly, Prince is not ready to forgive those who have criticised the institution. Meanwhile, do you think the Queen was too harsh on Catherine?
