Under pressure, she just radiated calmness,” indicated for the card Squeeze writer Christopher Andersen, author of The King: The Life of Charles III.
“Kate is the descendant of coal miners. Her mother lived in public housing and worked as a flight attendant. Kate will be the first real simple queen”, Andersen added, that apart from the issue of race, William and Kate have been under all the same pressure as the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, as well as the late Princess Diana.

William and Kate were booed but handled it gracefully
