Queen Camilla is said to have returned from her recent US tour convinced she is now as popular as Kate Middleton, with one insider claiming she privately told the Princess of Wales that she is 'just as popular' and has no intention of stepping back from the spotlight. The reported remarks surfaced after King Charles III and Queen Camilla completed a high profile American visit that royal sources have described as a personal success for the couple.
The trip has been cast in royal circles as a badly needed win for the King and Queen. According to an unnamed source quoted by Star, Charles, 77, and Camilla, 78, were 'treated like absolute rock stars' throughout their engagements, with US hosts and officials said to have praised how they represented Britain and helped build goodwill between the two countries. Against that backdrop, comparisons between Camilla and the Princess of Wales have resurfaced in more personal terms.
