Kate Middleton and Prince William have been showing a more laid-back side of the Royal Family in recent months, as shown in the intimate family moments shared in the Princess of Wales's September cancer update video. And by sharing a warm hug with 16-year-old cancer patient Liz Hatton during an Oct. 2 meeting, one royal expert says the Waleses are taking the monarchy in a more modern direction.
Former royal photographer Ian Lloyd told GB News's Martin Daubney that "it's very different than how it used to be" with the royals in terms of connecting with the public.
