Dame Joan Collins has made it clear that she's not willing to discuss Prince Harry and Meghan Markle. The 90-year-old star, while praising Catherine, the Princess of Wales, for her bravery after a devastating cancer diagnosis, remained dismissive of the Sussexes. This attitude towards the couple isn't new, and when asked again recently, Collins told The Sun newspaper, "I won't speak about them, sorry."
Collins made these remarks at the Inspiration Awards for Women, where she was honored with the Lifetime Achievement Award. She commended Catherine for her courage in publicly announcing her health struggles. Reflecting on their shared experiences as mothers, Collins expressed sadness upon learning the news. She admired Catherine's decision to address the issue herself, highlighting its rarity among royals.
In her announcement, Catherine revealed the shock of discovering cancer following major surgery. She emphasized her and William's commitment to managing the situation privately for the sake of their young family. Prince Harry and Meghan Markle publicly extended their well wishes to Catherine and her family, expressing hope for her recovery in peace and privacy.
Behind the scenes, Carol Middleton, the Princess of Wales's mother, has been hailed for her pivotal role in supporting the family. Sources close to the Middletons revealed that Carol has been a steadfast presence, providing reassurance and practical support. She's been described as a calming influence, stepping up to take care of Catherine and William's children during this challenging time.
King Charles, proud of his daughter-in-law's courage, has remained closely connected with her throughout her treatment. Facing his own battle with cancer, Charles finds solace in supporting Catherine as they both navigate their health challenges. Despite these uncertainties, the royal family is expected to rally around those in need, with Carol serving as a pillar of strength and support.
Amidst the turbulence, the monarchy remains united, with Carol's unwavering presence offering stability and comfort to her family.
