Why Kate will be a key figure in Harry and Meghan’s return to the UK

The Princess of Wales is likely to be a "peacemaker" between families when the Duke and Duchess of Sussex return to the UK with their children, a former royal butler believes. 

Speaking exclusively to The Independent, Grant Harrold explained that he believes Kate will be trying to look for the positives in the situation, and reassure the Prince of Wales.

Mr Harrold, who worked closely with Prince William and Prince Harry until 2011, has also warned that William would likely be “furious” with his brother’s return after their public fallout, following Harry’s barrage of accusations against him, Kate, the King and Queen Camilla in his memoir, Spare.
