Prince William's lack of support exacerbates the situation for the
Princess of Wales, according to royal commentator Daniela Elser. In the midst of
a recent ordeal, Prince William notably refrained from publicly backing his
wife, despite reportedly being the one who captured the controversial
photograph. This left Kate to issue a rare apology on her own, while the absence
of support from male members of the royal family has heightened scrutiny and
raised questions about the inner workings of the monarchy during times of
controversy.
Even during the recent Mother's Day controversy, King Charles refrained from publicly showing support for the Duchess amidst her ongoing health challenges. Daniela Elser's commentary draws parallels to historical events, such as Queen Jane's abandonment by her own father during her short reign in England.
There have been rumours and public debates over the male royals' lack of support for Kate Middleton. The royal family has not yet responded to the criticism or the claims that their backing is insufficient. Nonetheless, this episode has illuminated the workings of the monarchy and raised questions about the obligations of its members in contentious situations.
