Writing about Kate, Royal expert Russell Myers notes: “The Princess of Wales’s return on the international stage was never going to be a quiet affair.”

He further wrote for Mirror: 0Much like the King’s immense reception in the United States, the sight of thousands packing the streets of Reggio Emilia in Italy, to catch a glimpse of the future queen, tells you the royals still have the X Factor.”

“There has been much speculation when Kate would return to full time royal duties following her cancer diagnosis in February 2024 and it is no surprise that she turned to the comfort of her most knowledgable subject for this visit,” he added.

“These are huge ambitions, not only for the princess but for the rest of the royal family, who despite the best efforts of everyone else on the team, has undoubtedly missed her star quality. The future looks bright now that Kate is back and long may that

continue,” he noted.
