Kate Middleton in ‘very different’ position to King Charles following cancer diagnosis
Friday 24 May 2024 08:24 , Emma Guinness
The Princess of Wales is reportedly in a “very different” position to King Charles following her cancer diagnosis.
The Monarch, 75, returned to work last month while Kate, 42, has not been seen in public since Christmas Day last year.
Now, an insider close to the family has said that she will not undertake any unnecessary duties while she undergoes “preventative chemotherapy”.
“No one wants to put any pressure on Catherine,” the source told the Daily Mail.
“The only thing that matters at the moment is her getting better. She has been through an ordeal this year.
“What this means in practice is that big decisions, such as the appointment of new staff, can wait.
“It’s a reflection of Her Royal Highness’s importance to the future of the Monarchy that she has been given as much time as she needs.”
They added: “As Sovereign, His Majesty is in a very different position from the Princess of Wales.
“There is no need for her to be seen while she’s recovering.”
Prince Harry’s decision to turn down King’s royal invite dubbed ‘extraordinary behaviour'
Friday 24 May 2024 09:00 , Emma Guinness
Prince Harry’s alleged decision to turn down King Charles’s offer of staying in a royal residence on his trip to London has been dubbed “extraordinary behaviour”.
The Duke of Sussex, 39, instead chose to stay in a London hotel while briefly visiting to mark the 10th anniversary of the Invictus Games.
According to reports, this was because of Harry’s ongoing security concerns, but Helena Chard, a British broadcaster and photographer, said this could not have been the case.
“He could have stayed at St. James’ Palace, a stone’s throw away from Clarence House, where the King is usually based,” she told Fox News Digital.
“Harry turned down staying in a palace, where he would have received armed security protection from the SO14 Royalty Protection Group. He chose to stay at a hotel in Mayfair without this protection.
“Not only would he have received armed security protection, there is a far higher chance that he would have seen his father.”

“We are looking forward to engaging with the King on his views on how we can further the aims of the association.”
