Tension between Prince William, Princess Catherine, and Queen Camilla.
Reports suggest that Prince William and Princess Catherine were left speechless after Queen Camilla made a bold statement regarding Prince Louis's future, causing significant unrest within the royal family. According to insiders, Queen Camilla’s demand that Princess Catherine oversee Louis’s behavior has reportedly angered the Princess of Wales, especially given that she’s just returned to her royal duties after a successful six-month chemotherapy treatment.
Princess Catherine’s return to royal duties was meant to be a moment of joy, but this disagreement has complicated matters. Sources claim that Queen Camilla privately approached Princess Catherine to discuss Prince Louis’s education and behavior, suggesting that the young prince should avoid emulating Prince Harry. The Queen consort also proposed sending Louis to a boarding school, like Ludgrove School, which both Prince William and Prince Harry attended, to instill more discipline.
Princess Catherine, however, is reportedly against this idea, feeling that it underestimates her abilities as a mother. She has expressed a desire for her children to grow into morally strong individuals before being thrust into the royal spotlight. The disagreement between the two women marks another chapter in their fraught relationship, which has seen similar tensions over the years.
Queen Camilla’s concerns about Prince Louis’s behavior are not new. In fact, she had previously raised issues regarding Princess Charlotte’s behavior at Queen Elizabeth II’s funeral. Additionally, Camilla had forbidden Prince Louis from serving as a page boy during King Charles’s coronation, instead selecting her own grandchildren for the role, which reportedly caused friction with Princess Catherine and Princess Anne.
Meanwhile, Queen Camilla has been trying to regain influence within the royal family, especially after Prince William restructured royal activities, removing several of her relatives from official roles. Despite her efforts, Camilla's influence remains limited, particularly as King Charles has entrusted many royal responsibilities to Prince William.
The tension between Camilla and Catherine extends beyond family disagreements. There were reportedly issues around Queen Elizabeth’s bequest of her personal jewelry collection, which was intended for Princess Catherine but caused a stir with Queen Camilla, who had hoped to inherit the jewels. This led to a further breakdown in their relationship.
The complex dynamics between Queen Camilla and Princess Catherine reflect broader power struggles within the royal family, where tradition often clashes with modern views. As Princess Catherine resumes her royal role, the royal family’s internal conflicts continue to make headlines, raising questions about the future of the monarchy and the relationships within it.
