Royal members are often held answerable for various mishaps within the Palace walls. Be it about the administration or about the personal life of the family members, royals have forever been obliged to answer the public. The Princess of Wales Kate Middleton is the epitome of the amalgamation of the finest etiquettes of the royal family. Being the centerpiece of the family, she has been answerable about various happenings within the family to the public. Likewise, she was once asked about her estranged family in California, The Sussexes. 

Robert Jobson’s latest publication came with a lot of revelations about the dynamics of the royal family. While it is predominantly about King Charles, it also threw light on all other members of the family, both working and estranged. Speaking of estranged members, the book also wrote about how Kate Middleton had a difficult time dealing with the Duchess of Sussex, Meghan Markle during a walkabout at the Queen’s funeral. Even before, there have been numerous tensions between the two royal women as claimed by another royal, Prince Harry himself.

However, they all prefer to keep their differences aside when it comes to the kids, or so it appears. In a last year’s interview, a journalist questioned the Princess about her new niece, Princess Lilibet. The Princess was in a childhood education engagement with U.S. First Lady Jill Biden. The question came at the end when Biden and Middleton took rare direct questions from the media on June 11, 2021.

Middleton replied, that she wished her all the best very. With the excitement intact, she also confessed about how she looked forward to meeting her. “I can’t wait to meet her, ’cause we haven’t yet,” said the Princess.
