Why the Queen “admires” Duchess Kate so much
The Queen “admires” the way that Duchess Kate has adapted to her life as a member of the royal family, claims a royal expert.
BBC’s former royal correspondent Jennie Bond revealed that the Duchess of Cambridge has “come into her own” in recent years and says the royal often works “behind the scenes”.
The 69-year-old said that the mother-of-three has a “quiet dignity” which she believes is what the British people are starting to “love” about the future Queen.
She said: “She’s doing very well isn’t she? She’s so dignified.
“She has a quiet dignity about her which I think the public is growing to love and she works behind the scenes.”
Host Christine Lampard then asked: “Do you think she’s the Queen’s favourite?”
“The Queen is very, very fond of Sophie countess of Wessex – she often takes place besides the Queen,” responded Jennie.
“But I think she admires the way that Catherine, as she’s known in royal circles, has adapted to the job of being a Queen-in-waiting”.
