Fans In Tears Over Kensington Palace’s MAJOR ANNOUNCEMENT on Catherine’s RETURN With William

In a heartwarming moment, Katherine and William, the Princess and Prince of Wales, received messages of support about their future roles as King and Queen amid King Charles’s cancer battle. The Waleses must have been delighted as the royal couple received uplifting news from Australia following the Monarch’s tour, which had faced strong backlash from anti-monarchist groups.

The 43-year-old royal, who has been gradually returning to public duties following cancer treatment, will join her husband and the King for the 80th anniversary of VE Day in May this year. Charles and senior members of the royal family will pay tribute to the fallen at a special service of thanksgiving at Westminster Abbey as part of a commemorative program. Queen Camilla, Prince William, and Princess Katherine, along with the Duke and Duchess of Edinburgh, are expected to join the Prime Minister and hundreds of veterans and their families at the service.

The Prince and Princess of Wales are believed to be extremely popular in Australia, which has led to a decline in support for turning away from the royal family. This shift is significant, as in a 1999 referendum, Australian voters rejected becoming a republic, with 55% voting “No” and 45% voting “Yes.” However, 25 years later, in November last year, a YouGov poll found support for a republic had declined significantly.

Former Prime Minister Tony Abbott stated, “I am sure the common sense of the Australian people means that a republic will never happen in my country, and in any event, Wills and Katherine are overwhelmingly the most popular members of the royal family.” Polling found that if the referendum were held again, 59% would vote to keep the monarchy, while 41% would support a republic.

It is also believed that the popularity of the King and Queen has bolstered support for the monarchy in Australia. The couple’s visit last year attracted large crowds eager to catch a glimpse of them. Former Australian Foreign Minister Alexander Downer supported this view, stating that he sees no prospect of Australia becoming a republic in the foreseeable future. He explained that making Australia a republic would be complicated, requiring both parliamentary legislation and a referendum.

While the Prince and Princess of Wales have positively influenced public opinion, the King and Queen have also played an important role. It is believed that Prince George will continue this momentum during his own reign. David Flint, the national convenor of Australians for Constitutional Monarchy, expressed confidence that support for the monarchy would persist under the reigns of William V and George VII. He argued that Australians have more pressing priorities than constitutional referendums, which would only create division.

The latest news follows reports of a fresh blow to Prince Andrew. The Duke of York marked his birthday without any public acknowledgment from King Charles or senior members of the royal family.

Meanwhile, the Waleses have already scheduled their first royal engagement upon their return, with a visit to Pontypridd in South Wales on February 26th ahead of St. David’s Day celebrations on March 1st. Princess Katherine’s presence will provide a significant morale boost for the monarchy. It has been a challenging year for her, as William acknowledged, but she has made several public appearances recently. However, Kensington Palace has emphasized that her return to royal duties will be gradual.

Earlier this year, the Princess undertook her first royal away day since 2023 as part of her steady return. She visited a sock manufacturer and a children’s hospice, of which she is a patron. During the visit, she eagerly interacted with children using the soft play area, participated in a musical session for children with life-limiting conditions, and even had her hand painted red to leave a lasting memory of her visit—just as King Charles had done years before. Later in the day, she visited Corgi, a textile manufacturer in Ammanford specializing in socks and knitwear.
