The Princess of Wales proved last week how duty comes before anything else as she undertook her first public engagement since the publication of Prince Harry’s explosive memoir.
Alongside her husband Prince William, 40, Kate headed to Merseyside to officially open the Royal Liverpool University Hospital and visit a mental health charity for young people. Smiling from ear to ear, the appearance of the princess, 41, reassured the public that it would take more than that to ruffle her feathers – and what a pillar of strength she is for William as well as the King and his wife Camilla.
“It is classic Kate. It’s back to work, and she’s rising above the drama,” Katie Nicholl, author of The New Royals: Queen Elizabeth’s Legacy And The Future Of The Crown, exclusively tells OK!. “She doesn’t do drama and she never has. She’s come out with a smile on her face and she’s leading by example and putting duty before herself.
“She’s doing a job that not only puts a smile on her face, but brings smiles to the faces of others as we all saw at their engagement. It is back to business for the King as well. While the book will be painful reading, it is duty before self and this is a mantra that has been passed down to the next generation of royals and that’s what we’re seeing here.”
The visit to Merseyside came just days after the Duke of Sussex’s book, Spare, was published. In it Harry claims he was physically attacked by his older brother and details an alleged spat between Kate and his wife Meghan, 41, over Princess Charlotte’s bridesmaid dress.
