Luxury brands and designers are all hoping to dress the Princess of Wales and celebrate the ‘Kate effect’,” Chard said. he said.
He continued, “Catherine emulates the combination of charm and mystery of the late Queen Elizabeth. Her regal fortitude, as well as her kind, empathetic, reassuring demeanor, are the perfect blend that has captivated Royal fans around the world.”

British Royal family expert Hilary Fordwich told Fox News Digital that Middleton is a “pillar of power and popularity.”
“It’s becoming increasingly clear that the stoic Princess Catherine is truly a rock star, a pillar of power and popularity. Rather than just recovering from cancer, she’s thriving, and it shows. It literally looks like she’s turning life upside down. Her resilience is so inspiring to so many,” Fordwich began.

He continued, “He truly embodies the British spirit of grit, moderation and dignity that is admired by the public. His devotion to duty rather than constant drama makes him a truly national treasure. He is relatable because he is a real person, truly authentic without having to pretend to be one. He is comfortable in his own skin, with his own family and with his own roots, which are decidedly middle-class, and that has been a strong foundation for him rather than a weakness. He doesn’t signal virtue, he actually lives family values.”
Royal experts also reflected on how 2025 has been a defining year for Middleton, from announcing she is cancer free to hosting world leaders alongside Prince William.

“It is extremely important that Kate fulfills her duties with renewed vigor,” royal expert Richard Fitzwilliams told Fox News Digital.
“Her confidence radiates, especially in public speaking, an area in which she was once nervous. She knows that no one else has her own profile and can communicate globally like she and William. An indication of the strength of their brand is the dizzying levels of popularity they both consistently achieve in polls, over 70 per cent popularity.” he said.

“It’s an ongoing trend of finding ways to support cancer charities, making sense of the trauma she’s overcome, and balancing her life between her public duties as a member of the Royal family, a mother of three, a soon-to-be King husband, and a former commoner who never imagined in her childhood days that she would one day be Queen,” Turner began.
“How do you navigate this transition? Through hard work, determination to succeed, the ability to multitask, and making every day count after facing a potentially terminal illness, he has learned that life has given him an incredible second chance to do good in the world, and he intends to grab that opportunity with both hands,” he concluded.
