The 'Huge Burden' Princess Catherine Is Forced To Carry For Royal Family

The royal family better treat Princess Catherine right ’cause they’re lucky she does so much for them!

It is clear that no royal family member is loved more than Kate Middleton! And ever since recovering from her cancer battle, that’s never been more evident. As controversy has surrounded the monarchy, particularly in relation to the former Prince Andrew, The Firm has never relied on Prince William‘s wife more for good press. But that would take a toll on anyone!

Speaking to People on Thursday, royal author Catherine Mayer expressed:

“Kate is the closest they have to a rockstar member these days, and she’s the one everyone wants to see.”

But that kind of fame comes with its downsides:

“That’s a huge burden for anyone to carry, let alone someone who has had existential battles with her health.”

Totally!!

The mother of three has only just started stepping out for solo royal duties in recent months, including a trip to Italy. They’ve all been very successful, but they have also come with unique challenges:

“Kate not only had to look vibrant and in command of her role, but she knew she would be scrutinized more than ever.”

Shifting opinions on the royal family were put on display when Kate and her kids were loudly booed earlier this month at Trooping the Colour. She handled it elegantly, and ultimately, the event was a positive experience for the family, former palace courtier Ailsa Anderson reflected:

“It felt like a family affair; the King will have taken absolute joy and pleasure in that. They are starting the summer on a high.”

As tensions rise as Prince Harry and Meghan Markle prepare to return to the UK this summer, we bet there’s more and more pressure on the Princess of Wales to make sure the family continues to generate positive press. That’s a massive task for one person! It cannot be easy!

Do U think it’s fair to put this burden on Kate?? Do they have other options? Sound OFF (below)!
