King Charles Takes Unprecedented Move On Princess Catherine Leaves Queen Tearful With Envy
In an unexpected twist, King Charles of England has made an unprecedented decision that has left Queen Camila quite unhappy. This surprising move significantly favors his daughter-in-law, Princess Catherine, much to the displeasure of the Queen Consort. The repercussions of this decision are expected to be substantial.
According to Royal Insider, the monarch has taken a historic step by naming Prince William’s wife as a Royal Companion of the Order of the Companions of Honour. This honor recognizes her 13 years of dedicated service to the royal family and her strong support of the arts. Notably, this is the first time in over 107 years that a member of the royal family has received this distinction, making Princess Catherine the first to meet the strict requirements in more than a century.
This decision demonstrates King Charles’s support for Catherine, who is dealing with several health issues. However, Queen Camila was reported to be shocked by the news. She believed that if anyone was going to receive the Royal Order of Honourable Companions, it would be her. Although she knew Catherine was a candidate for the honor, she thought she would end the 107-year period without awards. Upon hearing her husband’s decision, Queen Camila was stunned and bewildered. Royal experts suggest that the king’s increasing support for his family, particularly his children, could have left the Queen Consort feeling undervalued.
Over the years, as the Princess of Wales, Catherine has continually worked to enhance the reputation of the royal family, particularly through her leadership of numerous foundations and charitable movements. It appears she is following in the footsteps of her late mother-in-law, Princess Diana, who would no doubt be very proud of this recognition.
The past few months have been challenging for Britain’s royal family, as both King Charles and the Princess of Wales were diagnosed with cancer and underwent surgical procedures earlier in the year. Despite this, they attended the annual Trooping the Colour on June 15 to mark the monarch’s birthday. Catherine announced that although she wasn’t out of the woods yet, she would be attending the event. The king attended as well, but there were a few changes for him under his doctor’s advice.
The emotional toll of recent events was evident during the ceremony. According to professional lip reader Nica Hickling, the king made a touching remark to his wife Queen Camila as they waved to the crowds. Hickling noted that the king told the queen, “Oh dear, I don’t know why I’m feeling rather tearful.” Later, on the balcony, Hickling saw Charles debating with Camila during the flypast about whether they could see a hawk or a typhoon. The monarch then turned his attention to the crowd below and exclaimed, “It’s amazing the amount of people who made it.”
The image of Catherine standing next to King Charles on the balcony can be interpreted as a gesture of solidarity and support. This year’s ceremony, with all its public scrutiny, showcased Britain’s ceremonial brilliance. The late Queen would have been proud of this duo’s gesture of solidarity, symbolizing the strength and unity of the royal family amidst their personal challenges.
