Did Queen Camilla once exhibit a royal snobbery towards the future queen, now adored by many?
A striking new royal exposé titled Kate alleges a definite “yes,” suggesting that Camilla initially looked down on the idea of Prince William marrying his university sweetheart.
According to author Christopher Andersen, Camilla was less than thrilled about the match, deeming Kate Middleton too ‘common’ for royalty due to her middle-class background.
Andersen writes that Camilla believed the future king should wed someone of royal descent or at least from the British aristocracy, rather than “a descendant of coal miners whose mother grew up in public housing and had once been a flight attendant.”
The Queen Consort allegedly harbored doubts about Kate’s suitability, concerned that her parents, former British Airways employees, particularly her mother Carole, were overly ambitious.
Takes one to know one, perhaps? Camilla was, at one time, the most famous side chick in modern history, best known – to most Americans, at least – for helping arrange and then dis-arrange the royal marriage between Prince Charles and Princess Diana.
Sure, maybe Kate’s not a descendent of one of Edward VII’s mistress (something Camilla is reportedly oddly proud of) but is that really brag worthy?
Was Queen Camilla once a royal snob to the now-beloved future queen?
Where I come from if a woman goes from a coal miner’s daughter to the founder of a party supply business and a self-made multimillionaire, we call that the ‘American Dream.’ And when that gal’s daughter ends up in Buckingham Palace that fairy tale is greenlit for a made-for-TV movie.
We’ve heard from other royal watchers that the Queen has a ‘ruthless streak,’ but this is downright cruel. And, if we’re honest, quite ironic.
It turns out that Kate’s been the best thing to happen to the royals since Megxit. And the rest of the fam haven’t exactly been draping themselves in glory recently.
Putting Prince Harry and the Harpy aside for a moment, there’s new reporting that Sarah Ferguson, formerly known as Duchess of York, was having extra-marital relations with none other than Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs, who reportedly told sources over the years he was ‘slamming Sarah’ and couldn’t wait for her then-teenage daughters to come of age.
What’s worse, Feisty Fergie once took then 16-year-old Eugenie on one of Diddy’s yacht parties and we can’t forget her seemingly sycophantic obsession with child molester Jeffrey Epstein.
Ferguson’s representatives have denied that she had any relationship with Combs and no involvement in Epstein’s crimes.
Of course, there’s also Fergie’s doughy creeper husband, formerly known as Prince Andrew. King Charles stripped Andrew of his titles and booted him out of his state-funded lodgings in October – but, reports Andersen, it was Kate who was the first to block Uncle Andy from royal gatherings.
‘She is the first royal to cut him off, to turn her back on him,’ Andersen claimed, reporting she stopped Andrew from attending her Christmas concert at Westminster Abbey in 2021. Andrew allegedly tried to find a way in, but was reportedly told, ‘Nope, we don’t want your face on camera,’ says Andersen.
Seems like pretty clean judgment to me. Maybe being ‘common’ gives a person common sense. And this princess isn’t a snowflake, either.
The answer is a resounding, stomach-churning ‘yes’, according to a juicy new palace tell-all, titled Kate.
The snooty blue blood b.s. that Meghan would likely have attributed to racism, Kate faced down.
‘The press was vicious in England, portraying her family as a bunch of louts and criticizing Carole Middleton for doing such horrible things as chewing gum while she was quitting smoking,’ Andersen observed. And it couldn’t have been easy when Kate was labeled ‘Waity Katey’ during her nearly decade-long on-again/off-again courtship with her fancy fella.
She has persevered through cancer, surgery and chemo and still managed to shield her children, support her husband and return to royal duties with a smile and dainty wave.
No wonder people love her. A new YouGov.com poll shows Kate atop the royal family standings with a 75 percent approval rating. Her handsome prince is nipping her saintly heels at 74 percent, while Queen Camilla trails at 37 percent (just ahead of – you guessed it – Meghan).
Word is that Queen Camilla has warmed up to the mother of the future king after Kate’s cancer scare and, if that’s true, good for her.
I’ll take the classy commoner over the mudslinging snob any day of the week.
