King Charles’ wife hints at reconciliation with the Sussexes following Prince Andrew’s controversy
Queen Camilla may be ready to let go of past tensions with Harry and Meghan Markle, as her latest public appearance appeared to promote a message of peace. The Queen stepped out at Ascot Racecourse over the weekend, shortly after renewed controversy surrounding Prince Andrew brought fresh discomfort to the royal family.
Camilla looked elegant in a powder blue ensemble paired with a white hat and pearl jewellery. Yet, it was her striking light blue brooch that captured the most attention. According to jewellery expert Maxwell Stone, the accessory may have been more than just a fashion choice — it could have been a quiet gesture of reconciliation.
“There’s been much speculation surrounding Queen Camilla’s latest brooch, as its origin remains a mystery,” Stone told Express.co.uk. He explained that the central gemstone, a moonstone, is valued for its symbolism of feminine energy, calmness, and renewal. The stone is also believed to represent healing and emotional restoration — qualities that could signify Camilla’s hope for peace within the family.
“The gem has long been associated with reconciliation and renewal,” Stone added, suggesting that the Queen’s choice may have been a subtle nod toward rebuilding ties with the Duke and Duchess of Sussex.
Until now, it was thought that both Prince William and Camilla were unlikely to support Harry’s return to royal duties. However, this thoughtful gesture has sparked optimism among royal watchers, who see it as a small but meaningful sign that relations between the Sussexes and the royal family may be warming once again.
