Future King and Queen praised for stability while Harry and Meghan lose ground
Prince William and Catherine have secured a quiet but powerful win over the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, according to royal insiders and commentators.
Amid ongoing speculation surrounding a potential royal peace summit, the Prince and Princess of Wales have been praised for keeping their private lives shielded from public drama — a sharp contrast to the media storm often surrounding Harry and Meghan.
Princess Diana's former butler, Paul Burrell, weighed in on the comparison, highlighting the strength of William and Catherine's partnership. “Of course things go on behind the scenes — like in all marriages — but William and Kate handle it with grace,” Burrell told the Daily Star.
Praising their ability to navigate the challenges of royal life, he added, “They are complex individuals like all of us, but they've managed to keep their world intact, even with a staff of more than 200.”
Burrell's comments come at a time when Harry and Meghan continue to face setbacks in their public image and professional ventures. In contrast, the stability and discretion displayed by the future King and Queen have only strengthened their standing within the royal family and among the public.
