In a recent interview for the new King Charles III documentary, Princess Anne expressed her admiration for Queen Camilla’s performance in her royal role.
While acknowledging that it may not come naturally to her, Princess Anne commended Queen Camilla for her outstanding work.
The Princess Royal, known for her genuine and straightforward nature, has known Camilla for a long time and understands the importance of her role in supporting the king.
Princess Anne emphasized that Queen Camilla’s understanding of the role and its impact on the king has been truly remarkable.
She acknowledged that being a member of the royal family is not something Queen Camilla would have been naturally suited for, but she has excelled in her duties.
According to Princess Anne, Queen Camilla brings a unique change of speed and tone to the royal family, which is equally important.
Having witnessed her mother, Queen Elizabeth II, serve in this role for 70 years, Princess Anne understands the expectations and traditions associated with it.
It is understandable that she initially found it hard to imagine anyone else in the position.
However, after observing Queen Camilla’s sterling first year on the throne, Princess Anne wholeheartedly endorses her as an exceptional queen.
Princess Anne shares a close bond with her brother, King Charles, and is fiercely protective of him.
She even acted as his bodyguard during his coronation, taking on the role of gold stick-in-waiting.
Over time, any reservations or tensions that may have existed between Princess Anne and Queen Camilla have dissipated, and a warm relationship has developed between them.
Body language expert Judy James has noted the genuine warmth and connection between the Princess Royal and Queen Camilla.
In other news, Queen Camilla seemingly made a subtle dig at Meghan Markle by wearing a Dior outfit during a state visit earlier this year.
Meghan and Prince Harry had previously claimed a close relationship with the fashion house, with Prince Harry even choosing to wear a Dior suit to King Charles’ coronation.
However, Queen Camilla’s choice to wear Dior after the event was seen as a subtle retort to the Duchess of Sussex.
During a state visit to France in September, Queen Camilla wore a bespoke Dior Haute Couture gown specially designed by Maria Grazia Churi.
She accessorized the gown with Queen Elizabeth II’s diamond and sapphire necklace.
The selection of The Crown’s actress, Meg Bellamy, as the new face of Dior further added insult to injury for Meghan.
Rumors had circulated that Meghan was in talks to become the brand’s ambassador, making the timing of this announcement suspicious.
Since stepping down as senior royals in 2020, Meghan and Harry have pursued various business opportunities to achieve financial independence.
Speculations about Meghan signing a deal with Dior arose in June after their multi-million pound Spotify deal ended.
Meghan has been seen wearing Dior clothing during and after her time as a senior royal.
However, sources close to the royals denied any contract negotiations with Meghan, and Dior expressed confusion over the rumors.
Coinciding with the airing of the first part of The Crown’s final season, it was confirmed that Meg Bellamy would be the new face of Dior.
The 21-year-old actress portrays Kate Middleton in the latest season of the popular series.
This announcement further highlighted the contrast between Meghan’s rumored association with Dior and the selection of another actress from The Crown as the brand’s representative.
In conclusion, Queen Camilla has received high praise from Princess Anne for her exceptional performance in her royal role.
Despite not being a natural fit, Queen Camilla has surpassed expectations and brought a unique perspective to the royal family.
Meanwhile, her choice of wearing Dior after Meghan Markle’s supposed relationship with the brand has raised eyebrows.
The ongoing dynamics within the British monarchy continue to captivate the public’s attention.
