TEAM CHARLES ALL DAY!

The Windsor women are united in championing their King

Queen Camilla is not the only woman offering unstinting support to the King as he begins his reign. There are three other royal women who are very much “Team Charles” and are likely to be towers of strength for the Monarch in years to come.

CATHERINE, PRINCESS OF WALES

Charles has always been fond of daughter-in-law Kate, appreciating her beauty, poise, charm and wit, along with her strength of character.

The pair have a genuinely close relationship, which was evident when Kate, 41, put a comforting arm around Charles at the funeral of his father, Prince Philip, last year. The King showed his appreciation for Kate by giving her her first army role as Colonel of the Irish Guards shortly after he became monarch.

Charles is grateful to Kate for being such a huge asset to the royal family, says royal biographer Tom Bower. As well as being a great support to him now, “she has shown all the qualities needed to be a great queen in the future – tough, considerate, intelligent and thoughtful”.
