'Kate Middleton's calming effect': Prince William bounded to family

Kate Middleton helped her husband, Prince William to improve relations with her father, King Charles III. Robert Jobson writes about this in his new book “Cathrine, The Princess of Wales”. Excerpts from the “biopic”, which tells how Kate was able to “calm” the entire royal family, not just William, got at the disposal of the Daily Mail newspaper.

Despite taking the role of “instinctive peacemaker”, Kate “in order to improve relations softened the way in which William and his father used to communicate,” the author writes. In favor of this observation, a source from the king's inner circle also testifies: “They have grown much closer over the years. He (the prince) respects his father for his dedication to serving the nation, but also realizes that his father's choice to put work before children had a defining effect on him in childhood and interfered with their relationship.”

However, according to the writer's interlocutor, Kate has helped William see things from his father's perspective. “She is someone who never forgets the two sides to any argument,” the source added, noting the princess' ‘emotional maturity’ and her ”stabilizing influence.” “The calming effect of Kate Middleton” could also be felt by the king himself, who ‘adores his daughter-in-law’ and considers her the daughter he never had, Jobson writes.

The writer also claims that Charles III is always very happy to see the princess and approaches her if he notices her at family events, greeting her with a “tender kiss.” The couple “can often be seen laughing and bantering with each other,” the book says. “I think the king realizes the good effect Catherine has on his entire family,” the source noted. - He loves and, indeed, appreciates everything she does.”

Appreciates everything Kate does, and so does Prince William. When she announced in March the cancer she's battling, her husband was by her side behind the scenes. “William's help is a source of comfort and solace,” Kate told the audience in a recorded video. - As is the love, support and kindness shown by so many of you. It means so much to both of us.”.

The book “Cathrine, The Princess of Wales” will be available on August 6th.
