A royal expert has shared new title for Princess of Wales Kate Middleton after plans of King Charles for reunion with Prince Harry, Meghan and their children Archie and Lilibet were exposed.

The Mirror quoted royal expert Andrew Lownie as saying Prince William is ‘cleaner than the others’ in the royal family "and the tension is that he wants a clean stable when he moves into the role of king.”

The royal historian continued, “William also has Kate, who is a really tough one, and behind that smiling exterior she's like the steely queen mum.”

"Kate gets how it all works - and I'm always struck that it is often the outsiders who better understand the institution rather than those who are born to it.”

Andrew Lownie added, "Kate helps William see the reputational damage and he is much tougher than his father or any other royal relatives. The couple is much better at reading the room."

The royal expert’s remarks came after reports King Charles has adopted a meaningful strategy to meet his California-based grandchildren Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet soon.

According to a report by the OK! Magazine, the monarch believes that a reconciliation between his daughters-in-law Kate Middleton and Meghan Markle could lead to him seeing Archie and Lilibet.
