Kate Middleton: The Jewel in the Royal Family’s Crown

In a scathing article for The Sun, royal expert Tom Bauer has praised Kate Middleton, hailing her as the woman Princess Diana would be proud of.

On her 40th birthday, Kate has not only become the woman her husband's mother might have been, but has undoubtedly surpassed even Diana's ambition.

Just a few years ago, tensions were high within the royal family leading up to Prince Harry's marriage to Meghan Markle.

Palace insiders were shocked by Meghan's demanding behavior, causing great unhappiness among Kate's staff at Kensington Palace.

Meghan's imperial demands were notorious, with Harry even shouting at one of the Queen's trusted aides, Angela Kelly, insisting on Meghan's choice of tiara for the wedding.

However, with the Queen's support, Kelly refused, setting the stage for Meghan's unwillingness to conform to traditional royal codes.

Fortunately for Britain, it is Kate, not Meghan, who is the future Queen.

However, Kate is aware that the strained relationship between the Cambridges and Sussexes poses a threat to the monarchy's future.

Her skill lies in managing William's anger towards Harry and Meghan, particularly following the couple's controversial interview with Oprah Winfrey last March.

The Sussexes made untruthful allegations, claiming racism within the royal family and portraying themselves as trapped.

They also accused Kate of making Meghan cry before their marriage in Windsor.

Surprisingly, Kate chose not to retaliate against Meghan's attack, maintaining a dignified silence from Kensington Palace.

This silence makes the recent BBC TV documentary by Amol Rajan, suggesting that the Cambridges were engaging in a media war against the Sussexes, all the more disgraceful.

Rajan failed to provide convincing evidence for his claims, while in reality, Kate and William have been the targets of Harry's and Meghan's propagandists, including false accusations that Kate was unwelcoming to Meghan.

Kate's steely self-control has been crucial in navigating her occasionally turbulent relationship with William before their marriage.

William, cautious not to make a mistake, waited until he turned 30 to propose.

During a brief break in their relationship, Kate endured the tabloid nickname “Waity Katie” without public complaint, displaying resilience and pride.

Eventually, with encouragement from his family, William proposed at the age of 28.

Their own experiences led Kate and William to advise Harry against rushing into marriage with Meghan.

Both loved Harry but feared that Meghan desired royal status without fully embracing the responsibilities.

Kate sensed this danger even before William did, noticing Meghan's declaration to campaign for women's rights during the unveiling of their charitable royal foundation.

Kate understood that the royal family does not campaign but rather encourages and consoles organizations and individuals.

Unlike Meghan, who sought the spotlight, Kate recognized the importance of discretion.

Kate's worst fears were confirmed during a fitting for the bridesmaids' clothes when Meghan displayed manipulative behavior towards Charlotte, Kate's daughter, reducing Kate to tears.

Despite this, Kate extended an olive branch by bringing flowers to Meghan, not out of guilt, but as a natural conciliator.

Rumors circulated that Meghan discarded the flowers, and in her Oprah interview, she twisted the incident to accuse Kate of misconduct.

This mean-spirited public rebuke only solidified the view that Meghan was ill-suited for public life in Britain.

In contrast, Kate's silence in the face of attack showcased her resilience, a quality admired by many loyal to the Queen.

Kate leads a modest lifestyle, avoiding expensive restaurants and opting for off-the-peg high-street clothing.

She is unashamed to re-wear outfits, unlike Meghan, who frequently flaunts designer labels worth thousands of pounds.

Furthermore, while the Sussexes often travel by private jets, Kate and her family were photographed on a budget airline when visiting the Queen in Balmoral.

Kate Middleton continues to shine as the jewel in the royal family's crown.

Her grace under pressure, dedication to duty, and ability to navigate challenging situations have earned her respect and admiration.

As the future Queen, Kate's presence ensures stability and continuity for the monarchy, even amidst the turbulent times caused by the Sussexes' departure.
