EXCLUSIVE Queen passed on 'advice' to Kate Middleton and the royals had a 'good relationship'
Our late Queen was a "phenomenal mentor" to our now Princess of Wales, royal expert Katie Nicholls says.
And Katie thinks that Kate’s ability to to glide through these events so effortlessly is all down to the fact that she spent a lot of time with our late sovereign before she died. Katie continues: "I remember being told ahead of William and Kate’s wedding in 2011 that the Queen had made her own private office and her ladies in waiting available to Catherine, so she could go and talk to them first-hand about what it was like to do royal engagements and how one should behave. And she took up that offer and made sure she benefitted from that experience.”
“She’s not letting anything overshadow or overwhelm the Princess of Wales that she wants to be," she says. "I think that’s very much to her credit and her confidence.
