Aside from looks, Kate Middleton puts other members of the Royal family in the shadow with her personality traits. According to the former staff at the palace, Kate Middleton ‘is not like other members of the royal family’. She is polite at all times, she makes jokes with them and even has a little chat every now and then. This speaks much about how Kate Middleton is raised. It speaks much about her humanity and ability to fit in and be adored. Many claim that she is the complete opposite of Meghan Markle.
This information ‘leaks’ after the butler, Grant Harrold, speaks about his experience with the Princess. He worked for King Charles for seven years, and during this period, he saw and heard everything, so he was able to make a comparison.
Kate Middleton Is Special -Former Butler Reveals She Is Polite And Friendly Unlike Meghan Markle
“What I liked was that Kate, being a girlfriend and obviously not a member of the family, would be with me and the other staff and she was so polite, friendly, and fun and making jokes.” – Grant said of Kate Middleton.
Grant Harrold says that he is a big fan of the Royals, even before starting to work in the royal estate. He even wrote fan letters to the late Queen Elizabeth when he was in his teenage years. As such, he is aware of the happenings surrounding the Royal family since long ago.
The butler was present at the royal estate on many occasions, starting from when Prince William and Kate Middleton came back from St Andrews University. At the time, both of them had 19 years of age, and young as they were, they looked and behaved like every other young couple their age. However, he noticed extreme mutual respect and understanding in the way they spoke and carried themselves around the staff.
This is where the totally opposite condoning of Meghan Markle could be mentioned. According to Royal correspondent Valentine Low, the Duchess of Sussex showed great signs of bullying behavior with all the staff. Reports state that there are official complaints by the senior Buckingham Palace staff about Meghan Markle’s behavior.
The reports claim that the Duchess of Sussex is lacking sympathy and empathy with the staff. Quite often, the staff left in tears and shaking with fear after speaking to her. The angry and unpleasant rants were happening periodically, as Meghan Markle was going through her daily routines. Wherever she went in the palace, she left everyone around her with an unpleasant feeling of humiliation.
Meghan Markle dismissed these accusations as untrue and as a part of ‘calculated smear campaign’ against her. However, Valentine Low claims that the testimonies of people working at the palace speak for themselves. The royal correspondent claims that Meghan Markle’s outbursts of rage and resentment happened in public as well. For example, during past public engagements in Australia, people claim to overheard her complaining about how she doesn’t get paid to ‘do this’.
The bullying allegations that Meghan Markle received from the staff are the thing that damaged her reputation the most. What’s even worse is that she dragged her husband into it as well.
According to a member of the staff, Meghan Markle spoke to his colleague harshly and told him that he is the most incompetent person to do a job.
“Don’t worry. If there was literally anyone else I could ask to do this, I would be asking them instead of you.” – Meghan Markle yelled at the servant.
“Every ten minutes, I had to go outside, so she and Harry could scream at me. It was, ‘I can’t believe you’ve done this. You’ve let me down. What were you thinking?’ It went on for a couple of hours.” – a former staffer told The Daily Beast. “You could not escape them. There were no lines or boundaries—it was the last thing at night, first thing in the morning.”
Another important trait that makes a huge difference between Kate Middleton and Meghan Markle is the bond that they share with their in-laws. Kate Middleton is in good relations with all of Prince William’s relatives. We could even say that most of them share a very positive opinion of her. On the other side, however, we have Meghan Markle refusing to develop a relationship with them. According to royal experts, Meghan Markle couldn’t stand living with Prince Harry’s family. As a result, she left the palace to go and live on another continent, forcing Prince Harry to follow her.
Kate Middleton often supported the late Queen Elizabeth by attending engagements and tours with her. Kate Middleton’s presence created a bond between her and the Queen. A bond that the Queen didn’t share with anyone else from the family. Kate Middleton found a way to incorporate her charity work and her interest in joining the Queen in these instances.
The Princess of Wales shares this bond and affection with her father-in-law, King Charles, and her stepmother-in-law Queen Consort Camilla. We could see this at the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee on Thanksgiving. King Charles said hello by blowing a kiss to Kate Middleton while politely smiling. Queen Consort Camilla was the one to follow his example and she blew a kiss to Kate Middleton as well. This is a pure expression of affection they share for one another.
The testimonials of the staff working at the royal estate may be the best indicator that you just can’t not like Kate Middleton. With her both feet on the ground, she is pleasant to speak to, and she is respectful to everyone around her. She is a true example of a humble and loving person.
