Kate Middleton’s mom Carole ‘needs reassurance’ after ‘desperately upsetting’ time: expert
stepped in to support their grandchildren during this uncertain time.And according to royal expert and former BBC royal correspondent Jennie Bond, the Princess’s cancer battle has taken a toll on her worried mother.“We should also spare a thought for another mother in this — Carole Middleton,” Bond told The Mirror.“Catherine may be 42, but she is still Carole’s little girl, and to watch her go through this and withstand the bullying pressure to explain must have been desperately upsetting.”“She has no doubt been a tower of strength and a comforting presence for the children, but she, too, will need reassurance,” Bond added.As Middleton undergoes treatment, her parents have reportedly been spending quality time with their grandkids Prince George, 10, Princess Charlotte, 8, and Prince Louis, 5.They are also grandparents to daughter Pippa Middleton’s children: Arthur, 5, Grace, 3, and Rose, 1.“They’ll have rallied around her, especially her young family,” royal commentator and biographer Duncan Larcombe told the Mirror last month. “Carole and Michael will have essentially thrown a safety blanket around the young children to help protect them.”“In times like this for Kate, it is hugely important.

Denmark’s King Frederik, Queen Mary’s impressive ‘earnings’ revealed — and they’re set for a huge pay raise
official finance report published by the Danish Palace Tuesday shows that the majority of the couple’s income — paid for by the state — covered their housing and staff costs.It also covered other “dependent” members of the Danish royal family.Of the nearly $2 million they raked in, $323,000 was set aside as a “grant” for Mary, who was the Crown Princess at the time ahead of Queen Margrethe II’s abrupt abdication in January.This left them with just under $415,000 to spend on leisure travel, shopping, and personal expenses.Margrethe, who stripped her youngest son’s family of their royal titles before her abdication, received an eye-watering sum of $8.4 million, with a private allowance of $5.7 million, in 2023.Frederik and Mary will be looking to cash in even more this year.The pair are also owners of a luxury ski lodge in Switzerland, which they list on AirBnB for up to $20,000 per week.The Danish royal family’s appanage system is set to be challenged by the government, which hopes to overhaul the current arrangement, according to local outlet DR News.This means that the royal family’s finances will be more transparent to the public, and will indicate the exact amount the royal household is given, as well as how they choose to divvy up the sum.Unlike the British royals, the Danish royal family does not need to pay taxes.Frederik and Mary ascended to the throne after Queen Margrethe — third cousin of the late Queen Elizabeth II — revealed in her New Year’s speech on Dec. 31 that she would be stepping down on Jan.

Princess Eugenie is ‘reluctant’ to take on more royal duties as it ‘takes up your whole life’: ex-butler
Kate Middleton, 42, out of the fold as they undergo their respective cancer treatments, the royals have been grasping at straws to have certain members step up and take on more work.And according to Grant Harrold, who worked for Charles for seven years when he was the Prince of Wales, Princess Eugenie is not looking to add anymore to her plate at this time.“Princess Eugenie is probably cautious to step up to Royal duties because it does take up your whole life. I’ve seen the schedules and you can’t switch it on and off,” Harrold told The Post.Eugenie, who welcomed her second son in May 2023 with husband Jack Brooksbank, is simply not prepared for the intense demands stepping up entails, Harrold notes.“Eugenie is very keen to have her own career and that’s something she is very passionate about – so yes, she probably is reluctant to take on royal duties,” he said of the Princess, who celebrated her 34th birthday over the weekend.“She’s currently a non-working Royal but as times become more desperate, it’s very likely we will see her move from that to become a working senior member of the family.”Elsewhere, Harrold notes that with Eugenie being close to both Prince William and Prince Harry, it could very much mean that she can act as a “peacemaker” between the feuding brothers.“Eugenie is very close to William and Harry, she always has been, always will be,” he notes.

Prince Harry, Meghan Markle ‘still hope’ they will be asked back to be working royals: ‘They are kidding themselves’
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are reportedly hoping for a temporary return into the royal fold — but “on their own terms.”The Duke and Duchess of Sussex are said to have expressed interest in helping out with royal duties while King Charles III and Kate Middleton undergo their respective cancer treatments.However, according to royal expert and author Tom Quinn, it’s unlikely that the royals will have the Sussexes return.“Both Meghan and Harry still hope that at some point they might be asked back to become working royals on their own terms — it’s a rapidly shrinking possibility, but the couple have talked about this at length and the fact that senior royal numbers are seriously down at the moment has rekindled their hopes,” he told the Mirror.“As I understand it from palace contacts, they are kidding themselves if they think they will be invited back in any way.” The Post revealed in February that Charles has been toying with the idea of having Harry back on a temporary basis, despite the Duke being kept at arm’s length from ongoing succession talks.But it soon emerged that Prince William was reportedly “blocking” Harry’s return to the royal fold in a desperate bid to protect his ailing wife.Elsewhere, royal commentator Richard Fitzwilliams said the royal family’s health woes could provide the “perfect opportunity” to mend the royal rift.“This is a dread situation, a major operation followed by cancer,” he told the Sun.

Kate Middleton, Prince William head to Sandringham with their kids for Easter amid cancer diagnosis
Kate Middleton and Prince William will be spending some much-needed quality time at Sandringham this Easter.The Prince and Princess of Wales left Adelaide Cottage in Windsor via helicopter on Saturday with their children — Prince George, 10, Princess Charlotte, 8, and Prince Louis, 5 — to head towards Anmer Hall, located on the Sandringham Estate, Entertainment Tonight reports.Middleton, 42, revealed on Friday that she has been undergoing chemotherapy treatment after doctors discovered the cancer during her planned abdominal surgery.The family will spend Easter break at the estate, where they’re expected to see King Charles III, 75, who is also battling cancer.Understandably, the Waleses will stray from tradition this year by not joining the rest of the royal family for Easter services.Instead, they will spend the long Easter weekend together behind closed doors.Charles, for his part, is set to attend a small Easter service with family that’s set to be of much smaller scale than in previous years.It’s unclear if the entire family will unite for a publicized church service this year.Kensington Palace declined to comment.While initial palace guidance said that the Princess won’t return to royal duties until after Easter, it’s now been said that she won’t return to the royal fold until after she’s given the all clear by her doctors.“The Princess will return to official duties when she is cleared to do so by her medical team,” a palace spokesperson said following Middleton’s cancer announcement.“She is in good spirits and is focused on making a full recovery.”The mother-of-three had already stepped back from her duties after having the abdominal surgery in January for what she thought, at the time, was a non-cancerous
