The Harry & Meghan docuseries and Prince Harry’s memoir, Spare, left no room for doubt that Meghan Markle and Prince Harry consider Kate Middleton a foe. Their tell-all ventures have told about how on countless occasions Kate Middleton was too “formal” and in the worst cases brought Meghan Markle to tears. But the royal family has held onto its stiff British Upper lip more strongly than it had ever before. And none of the working members of the Royal family have said a word about the apple that fell far away.

But given the scenario, Kate Middleton is on everyone’s speed dial for a reaction. And in this case, the Princess of Wales has not only remained headstrong and continued her foundation work, but has also hired herself a warrior. A new secretary with the charm of a “public relations guru” and the experience of James Oliver’s campaign head for five years, to be precise.

Kate Middleton is making her royal circle strong with THIS addition

Despite the countless accusations made by Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, Kate Middleton has not retorted. Instead, the Duchess of Cambridge has kept busy with her philanthropic works. The mother of three has long been invested in improving development in early childhood years through spreading awareness about mental stability. She inaugurated the Royal Foundation Centre for Early Childhood in 2021, and the most recent initiative has been the ‘Shaping Us’ campaign where she oozed confidence in a red outfit.

Among the many reasons behind her confidence is the fact that 51-year-old Alice Corfield is now her secretary. Corfield was also at the helm of affairs for James Oliver’s food campaign through most of the last decade.
