Prince William and Kate Middleton, despite their grievances with Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, are taking a strikingly similar approach to the Sussexes.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex are often criticised for their media exposure and their attacks on the royal family, which has also deepened their rift with the Waleses.
However, as the Prince and Princess of Wales broke a major tradition announcing Kate’s positive health update, a royal expert claims that William and Kate are no different.
“Kate and William are selling themselves just as ruthlessly and calculatedly as Harry and Meghan do,” journalist Tim Teeman told The Daily Beast.
“The difference is, Harry and Meghan are standing at the cash register, ready to take your money (or not), while Kate and William are standing to the side, nervously thanking you for coming to the store, ready to direct you to the cash register, if you, like, want.”
