Prince William and Kate Middleton are beloved members of the royal family, but Queen Camilla might have found a way to humble the power couple.
According to Robert Jobson, Camilla threw “subtle jabs” at the Prince and Princess of Wales to remind them of their place within the royal hierarchy.
“When Charles was kept waiting several minutes for the couple, Camilla insisted they go without them,” the author wrote in Catherine, the Princess of Wales. “As William and Catherine emerged, all they could see were the blue flashing lights of the motorbikes disappearing in the distance.”
Despite the tension between them, the Waleses’ relationship with Camilla has changed as Kate and King Charles battle cancer.
“Recent events have obviously brought William and Camilla much closer,” Jennie Bond told an outlet. “They have been left, almost literally, nursing The Crown while the king and the princess recover.”
“Apart from the business side of things, I’m sure they will have been an emotional help to one another as well,” Bond continued. “Both will have been so worried about these unexpected health issues and I imagine they will have shared their concerns.”
OK! previously reported Jobson claimed the Princess of Wales played a role in strengthening William and Charles’ bond.
“There were moments when the relationship between the king and the Prince of Wales was frosty,” Jobson said in an interview. “There have been problems like that in the past.”
According to Jobson, the brunette beauty is “the hub, the conduit to good relations” between William and Charles.
