This is the other major event that followed the tragic disappearance of Queen Elizabeth II: the speech of King Charles III. The 73-year-old monarch, who will officially be king this Saturday, September 10, spoke for the first time today, in a recorded message, with a thought for his mother. But not only, very moved, the father of William and Harry also makes a big announcement, concerning his eldest and his wife Kate Middleton. Indeed, the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge have become Duke and Duchess of Cornwall but not only, they are now Prince and Princess of Wales.
Kate Middleton will now be known as princess of wales, as confirmed by King Charles III this evening. The Duchess of Cornwall, ex-of Cambridge, is the first member of the royal family to hold this title since his stepmother, the late Lady Diana. However, a source said the new Princess of Wales “enjoys the history associated with this role, but will naturally want to look to the future to create their own path“.”Today I am proud to name [William] Prince of Wales, the country whose title I have been privileged to bear for so much of my life and duty“, he launched during his speech. Kate Middleton could not go to the bedside of Elizabeth II, before she breathed her last. The mother of George, Charlotte and Louis remained in Windsor near children.
First images of Kate Middleton, tired and very sober
This Friday, September 9, when William and Harry returned to England, Kate Middleton appeared for the first time since the tragic news (see photos here, at Email online). The mother-of-three was on her way to the latter’s new Lambrook School, where they entered two days before, very elegant in their uniforms. Hidden by thick sunglasses, she was dressed in black, a ponytail as a hairstyle, pearls in earrings, and showed a rather tired look. In this sober look, she went to collect her three children, solid support for them as they have just lost their great-grandmother to whom they were so close. If she was not present on the spot at Balmoral, it is certain that the wife of prince William had to support him from a distance, in this new ordeal.
