Prince William has formed an unlikely alliance with his “wicked stepmother.”
Following Kate Middleton’s public announcement on Friday that she has cancer and is undergoing chemotherapy, several royal experts claimed to Fox News Digital that the Prince of Wales has gotten closer to Queen Camilla. His stepmother is married to King Charles III, who is also battling cancer.
“William, I believe, has seen the value of Queen Camilla, especially at a time like this when she has been stalwart in supporting King Charles not only at home but also dramatically increasing the public engagements she has attended,” said royal expert Ian Pelham Turner.
“[It has brought] a very popular and harmonious response from those whom she has met,” he shared. “At a time like this, the values of family members and how they respond… in a time of crisis bring closeness. William will be grateful and mindful of that, too.”
“I think over the past few years, Camilla has shown by her dedication to Charles and the monarchy that an admiration has grown for her energy,” Pelham Turner continued. “[Camilla’s] ability and commonsense approach has made William come to terms with his father’s decision to marry the woman he has loved since the death of Diana, Princess of Wales.”
A source told the U.K.’s Mirror that the prince, 41, and queen, 76, have had regular phone conversations in recent weeks as they support each other during tough times.
