Prince William and Kate Middleton attend the wedding celebration of Crown Prince Hussein and Princess Rajwa of Jordan on Thursday, June 1, 2023, at a banquet.
According to royal expert Daniela Elser, who wrote in her column for News.com.au, the Prince and Princess of Wales have been “used” to “take on an elevated role”.
“In terms of expanded responsibilities, being tasked with officiating at a palace wedding, not hitting the sunbeds too hard and having to dodge a septuagenarian Danish princess who reeks of menthol cigarettes and fake tan isn’t unheard of laborious or particularly important,” Elser wrote. .
“But in the royal world, taking on this kind of responsibility is a step in the Welsh royal career.”
The expert explained that this type of wedding duty fell to Charles when he was Prince of Wales. “Over the past two decades, he represented the late Queen at the weddings of Crown Prince Haakon and Crown Princess Mette-Marit of Norway, King Willem-Alexander and Queen Máxima of the Netherlands, King Felipe and Queen Letizia of Spain and King Philippe. and Queen Mathilde of Belgium.”
Furthermore, he added that the appearance of the prince and princess on Amman’s flags is the beginning of the next phase of their royal trajectory, one that will see their passports collecting stamps at a rate of knots and their nanny Maria Teresa Turrion Borrallo a very duty-free Bacardi’.
Elsher also speculated that William and Kate are the ones to shoulder the bulk of international royal tours now.
