Kate & the Queen: WE'LL SAVE THIS FAMILY

The monarch enlists her most helpful and calm family member to help iron out the ‘Sussex problem’ for good

The Queen is wasting no time picking up the pieces after Prince Harry’s defection and, in true matriarchal style, has recruited her most trusted peacekeeper Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge with the most difficult task of all – saving the royal family.

Woman’s Day understands the Queen, 95, has been leaning heavily on Prince William’s 39-year-old wife these past few weeks after she decamped from Buckingham Palace to Balmoral Castle to be alone, mourn her husband and wrap her head around the monarchy-threatening mess created by the Duke and Duchess of Sussex.
