“She has the image of being sweet and smiling, but in reality she is strong-willed and ready to fight for what she wants.” Royal expert on Kate Middleton
A friend of Kate Middleton told People journalists that after several years of claims and accusations from Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, the Prince and Princess of Wales no longer pay attention to them. However, there are no signs of reconciliation between the two couples.
"Kate moves on, and so does William. They focus on what's important in the future and don't look back,” the insider shared.
The publication's source also said that Middleton takes his royal duties very seriously. “She is often seen as the centerpiece of Team Windsor,” adds Simon Lewis, former director of communications at Buckingham Palace and co-host of the BBC podcast When It Hits the Fan.
In Omid Scobie's new book "Endgame" Kate is described as "cold" and unfriendly towards Meghan Markle, and in the Dutch translation of the book she was named along with Charles and other members of the royal family who allegedly discussed Archie's skin color before his birth.
"She has this public image of being sweet, smiling and, dare I say it, harmless. But in fact, she is strong-willed, strong-willed and ready to fight for what she wants and for what she thinks is right,” says British writer Valentine Lowe.
Her steely fortitude was on display in the immediate aftermath of Harry and Meghan's bombshell interview with Oprah Winfrey in 2021. After the Duke and Duchess of Sussex alleged racist comments from relatives about their son's skin color, Buckingham Palace released a 61-word statement on behalf of Queen Elizabeth II. It emphasizes that "some memories may vary" from those discussed in the interview. Lowe writes in her latest book that it was Kate who insisted on this formulation: “She thought it was very important that this not be ignored. She showed real strength and determination to clear the air. Kate thinks strategically. She will be queen one day, and she has the long-term interests of the monarchy and the royal family at heart."
