Kate finds comparisons with Diana 'stressful' a new biography has said.
Princess Kate considered refusing the title upgrade from Duchess of Cambridge to Princess of Wales after finding consistent comparisons with her late mother-in-law, Princess Diana, 'stressful' a new biography has said.When King Charles III acceded to the throne in September 2022, one of his first official acts was to make his elder son, Prince William, the new Prince of Wales, a title Charles had held for more than five decades.
She never used the title publicly or privately, as it was closely linked to Diana.Instead, Camilla, who is now queen, was known officially by her second-highest ranking title at the time: Duchess of Cornwall. Her decision set a precedent that Kate could have followed. When William became first in line to inherit the throne following his father's accession, he also became the new Duke of Cornwall, with Kate as his duchess.Kate did not follow Camilla's path.
