Kate Middleton and Queen Camilla reportedly put their differences aside over concerns about King Charles‘ demanding schedule. The Princess of Wales and the Queen were said to be “worried sick” about the monarch’s workload.
Kate Middleton and Queen Camilla were ‘worried’ for King Charles’ demanding schedule, per source
According to the National Examiner‘s report, the women reportedly agreed on how to support the monarch. “Kate and Camilla don’t always see eye-to-eye,” an unnamed insider claimed. However, the source said that when it came to Charles, “they’re absolutely on the same page.” They also described the two as “both worried sick about how hard he’s pushing himself.”
Still, neither royal publicly confirmed a feud or the reported private discussions. Meanwhile, Buckingham Palace confirmed the King completed his Caribbean tour on November 4.
Furthermore, the nine-day trip included engagements in the Bahamas, Guyana, and Antigua and Barbuda. On November 1, Charles was caught without an umbrella during a downpour at an independence parade.
The source claimed, “He’s burning the candle at both ends and it’s starting to show.” They added that Kate and Camilla viewed the incident as another sign he was “under way too much pressure.” Subsequently, Charles attended the Festival of Remembrance in London on November 7. The next day, he led the national service at the Cenotaph.
Additionally, the source linked his demanding schedule to Queen Elizabeth II’s example. “She had such an incredible work ethic right up until the end,” the insider claimed. They added that Charles “hates the idea of anyone thinking he’s not as strong as his mother was.” Consequently, the source suggested he felt unable to slow down.
They claimed a “big intervention” would achieve little because “he’d only dig his heels in.” Instead, the women were reportedly “encouraging him to rest” and taking pressure off him. Ultimately, the insider said they wanted Charles to “take better care of himself before he runs himself into the ground.”
