Queen Camilla feels sidelined after Kate's post-cancer return

The royal family is said to be facing a growing power struggle that has shockingly intensified within the Firm following Princess Kate’s return after her cancer battle.

There are speculations and rumours about Kate Middleton and Queen Camilla’s feud, which is being described as the 'fiercest ever'.

The two royal wives are reportedly at loggerheads, with senior aides claiming the atmosphere between the two women is "icy" and "impossible to ignore."

Camilla and Kate's relationship has allegedly deteriorated sharply in recent months, with both women vying for influence at the heart of the cancer-stricken King Charles III's reign.

"It feels like the fiercest clash we've seen between two senior royal women in years. Camilla feels sidelined, while Kate's growing confidence and visibility are unsettling her," a royal source has claimed.

"Both are aware that the balance of power is shifting, and neither is prepared to step back quietly," they added.

One insider told Radar Online: "Camilla worked hard to establish herself after years of criticism, and she doesn't like the idea of being overshadowed.

 They went on, "Kate's return has been polished, professional and very 'queenly'," adding: "It's obvious she's positioning herself for the future, and that's making Camilla uneasy."

It is worth mentioning here that Camilla took on additional duties during Kate's absence due to her cancer treatment last year. The Queen covered engagements for both her stepdaughter-in-law and the monarch, who was also undergoing cancer treatment. 

Now, Kate is back in the spotlight, courtiers believe friction has emerged over how royal responsibilities are divided. 

It's subtle, but it's there – in which events they attend, how much coverage each gets and even the tone of official briefings. "You can feel the competition.”

Kate does not seem to indulge in rivalries as she knows focuses on her duty nad health.

However, Insiders believe "It feels like the royal household is splitting into two distinct camps, Buckingham Palace with Charles and Camilla, and Kensington Palace with William and Kate."

Tensions have reportedly grown as the Waleses decide to move from Adelaide Cottage to Forest Lodge that insiders have dubbed 'Wales HQ'.

However, the monarch understands that the Prince of Wales' turn to play a bigger role in the royal family is coming soon. The question is how easy this change will be.
