Prince William and Kate Middleton often hold their important meetings behind closed doors but lucky fans have been given a rare insight into the inner workings of the Prince and Princess of Wales after photos emerged of one special get-together.

Meghan Markle is unlikely to ever return to the royal fold as Prince William and Kate Middleton make her "uncomfortable", says one royal expert.

In the fishbowl of royal life, there are very few people those at the very top can trust, so it must be a great joy and a relief to find an ally behind palace walls. That is exactly what has happened for the Prince and Princess of Wales as they have both formed a close bond with the Duchess of Edinburgh over the years thanks to her dedication to duty, devotion to her charities and all-round discretion.

Shortly after the Duke and Duchess of Sussex appeared in Germany for the Invictus Games, it was the Prince and Princess of Wales' time to shine as they had a busy week of a trip abroad and high profile solo engagements. As Prince William touched down in New York for the first Earthshot Prize Awards Summit, he made his passions for the United States clear with a comment posted on the couple’s social media, which read: “It’s so good to be back in the United States.

Hot on the heels of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex at the Invictus Games in Germany, it was the Prince of and Princess of Wales’ turn to shine. While Kate stepped out for important engagements in the UK, William jetted across ‘the pond’ for the Earthshot Prize Innovation Summit in New York, armed with his ambitious goal to save the planet via the ten-year project. But there was heartache behind William’s heroism, arriving on Prince Harry’s adopted US ‘home turf’ amid no sign of a reconciliation between the two brothers.

Prince William and Kate Middleton are still deeply angry with Prince Harry over one claim from his bombshell memoir Spare, according to reports.

When it comes to relationships, no couple will ever be perfect, which is a theory that also applies to members of the royal family such as the Prince and Princess of Wales.

Meghan Markle and Prince Harry's antics over the past few years have resulted in a "lot of trouble being stored up" for their children, according to a royal author.

Kate Middleton turned heads during her visit to the Royal Navy air base in Somerset this week as she showed "consistent confidence", while her husband Prince William travelled to New York for a meeting with the UN leader Antonio Guterres.

Prince William felt ‘nervous’ during his solo trip to New York and seemed less sure of himself without Kate Middleton around, an expert claimed. The Prince of Wales, 41, travelled to the US this week for the unveiling of the finalists for the 2023 Earthshot Prize - an environmental award set up by the future king.

Prince William has admitted that he secretly embarked on a jog around Central Park on his visit to New York City for the Earthshot Prize this week.The Prince of Wales hailed the “inspiration and optimism” of the 2023 Earthshot Prize finalists unveiled in New York William, who is married to Kate Middleton, the Princess of Wales, who launched the £50 million award to encourage and support the fight against environmental challenges, said: “It’s gone better than I’d hoped”, but there was “still a lot of work to do”. Speaking during a Q&A session at the Earthshot Prize Innovation Summit that launched the 15 innovative finalists, the future king, who is said to have a new and "personal approach" to the monarchy, said: “As we’ve seen today, the Earthshot winners and the finalists bring that inspiration and optimism.

Prince William is currently on his first official solo visit to New York but while his devoted wife Kate Middleton is often on his arm during royal trips, this time she chose to stay at home for a very understandable reason.

The Prince and Princess of Wales are well-known for their dedication to the roles, as well as their loveable and supportive behaviour toward one another in public. Very few of us need reminding that the royal couple met when they were both students at the University of St Andrews in Scotland in 2001. While they both started out as just friends, their closeness quickly blossomed into a relationship.

While last week proved to be the first time in many weeks that the public saw the Duke and Duchess of Sussex together at the Invictus Games following weeks of speculation about their marriage, the Prince and Princess of Wales also delighted royal fans with their antics during a joint engagement in Hereford.The visit on Thursday provided ample opportunities for the couple to share in their specialist interests of early years development, mental health and the environment.They visited the British Army garrison Sterling Lines in Hereford and met with SAS families, before travelling onto Madley Primary School’s Forest School and an organisation called We Are Farming Minds, both of which are partners of The Duchy of Cornwall. The royal couple - who recently left little doubt that they intend to secure their future as a forward-thinking, savvy brand by advertising for a CEO - enjoyed interesting activities during the day.

While all eyes were on the Duke and Duchess of Sussex at the Invictus Games last week, their estranged sister-in-law the Princess of Wales fought back by showing off a glamorous new look - all the while keeping a dignified silence about their well-publicised visit to Germany. “Kate’s not stupid. She wants any engagements that she’s involved in to get their rightful attention and coverage, and making sure she looks her best and behaves her best is part of that,” royal expert Duncan Larcombe tells new.

As their popularity continues to grow more and more each day, the Prince and Princess of Wales are certainly an ironclad source of support for King Charles as he continues in his high pressured role. While the death of Queen Elizabeth came at a time fraught by royal drama with the scandal involving Prince Andrew and the continued attacks by Prince Harry and Meghan, royal experts make it clear that the late monarch would be filled with nothing but pride over the way the Prince and Princess of Wales have conducted themselves.

The recent appearance of the Princess Royal and the Prince and Princess of Wales on Mike Tindall's podcast 'The Good, the Bad and the Rugby' served to prove that the Royal Family are great fun behind closed doors and enjoy everything from playing beer pong to racing in barefoot to cold water swimming.This clear sense of fun and informality jars with claims made by Meghan Markle on her and Prince Harry's Netflix series that the Royal Family are standoffish in private. She said: "I guess I started to understand very quickly that the formality on the outside carried through on the inside.That there is a forward-facing way of being and then you close the door and 'phew I can relax now' but that formality carries over on both sides.

The Prince of Wales has faced some major moments on the public stage during his 41 years. From walking behind his mother’s coffin to meeting world leaders, William has always appeared respectful, calm and capable – just like his stoic late grandmother.
