Kate, the Princess of Wales, and King Charles are known to have an incredibly close bond with one another and make bee-lines toward each other when they are at family functions
Kate, Princess of Wales, and King Charles have forged an incredibly deep bond over the years and a sweet nickname proves a key thing about their close relationship.
King Charles is known to call Kate his “beloved daughter-in-law” and regards her as a child he never had. When they catch a glimpse of her at family functions the pair are known to make a clear bee-line for one another.
The duo are often seen joking with one another when they are at the same event. Charles is even known to give his daughter-in-law a loving kiss.
Kate privately addresses the King with affection as “Grandpa”, according to royal author Robert Jobsob, in his new book ‘Catherine, the Princess of Wales: The biography’.
He wrote for MailOnline: “I think the King understands Catherine is a good influence on the entire family. He loves and truly appreciates everything she does.” The pair have embraced the high points of the monarchy in recent years, as well as more challenging moments.
Both Kate and the King bravely announced earlier this year they were undergoing treatment for cancer. The pair have comforted one another as they continue their respective treatments.
The King said he was “so proud” of Kate “for her courage” in speaking about her treatment. A short statement added he was in “the closest contact with his “beloved daughter-in-law.”
Kate previously admitted she has good days and bad days and explained her treatment could continue for a “few more months”. Previously opening up about her health, she said: “I have been blown away by all the kind messages of support and encouragement over the last couple of months.
“It really has made the world of difference to William and me and has helped us both through some of the harder times. I am making good progress, but as anyone going through chemotherapy will know, there are good days and bad days.”
