Royal Family News: Kate Middleton Is The Backbone Of The Royal Family, According To Princess Diana’s Former Butler
In a new interview, Paul suggested that Kate is someone who shares a lot of similarities to her late mother-in-law, Princess Diana. He also said that the future of the family basically rests on the Princess of Wales’ shoulders. No pressure on that one, right?
The Princess of Wales sure does have a lot to think about because if she fails, then apparently the monarchy will fail right alongside her.
Burrell put it this way, “Kate is in such an incredible position because it all rests on her really, the future rests on Kate and that’s an enormous responsibility because if she decided that she didn’t want to be a part of her marriage any more then I think the royal family would collapse. Everything is pinned up by Kate, the future is underpinned by Catherine Middleton and that’s incredible.”

He continued, “Back in my day, the future seemed to be pinned on Diana Spencer, our future queen. Now we’re looking at another Princess of Wales who is in the same role that Diana had, married to a Prince of Wales and the future of the monarchy is down to her. It’s not an enviable position to be in.”
Now, whether or not Kate Middleton will truly make an impact on the monarchy in the months and years to come remains to be seen but for now it seems like she’s just doing her day job alongside her husband Prince William with all of their royal engagements and public appearances. Time will only tell if she does end up becoming the next Princess Diana. Watch this space.
