After achieving a significant milestone, Kate Middleton, who has achieved a prominent place in the royal family, is poised to continue the legacy of her late mother-in-law, Princess Diana.
After a nine-month battle with cancer last year, the Princess of Wales has returned stronger and more determined than ever to leave her imprint on the monarchy.
The work Diana began before her life was tragically cut short in a deadly accident is now being carried on by Kate, who took on the role of Prince William’s late mother.
According to a royal specialist, Kate has been able to make the difficult decision and stand her own in the company despite her health issues.
The amount of engagements the princess has accepted in recent weeks has astonished and thrilled me, former BBC royal journalist Jennie Bond told The Mirror. “She gives the impression that it’s easy, but it’s difficult to be on TV and have to watch what you say while still being approachable and productive.”
She said that in many respects, she is carrying on the legacy of her late mother-in-law, Diana, by refusing to submit to “the grey men of the palace.” “If you think about it, Kate has been either associated with or an integral part of the royal family for longer than Diana was, even though Diana took a long time to stand up for herself.”
“I think her cancer diagnosis has made her even more determined to carry out her role in the way that she believes is most effective,” Bond added, adding that she is advocating for issues that she has selected.
Kensington Palace disclosed that Kate would be concentrating on her recuperation and will progressively resume her public engagements. In order to ensure that she is well enough to accept the engagement, her presence will also be verified around the event day.
