Kate Middleton and Prince William might have tried to overshadow King Charles III and Queen Camilla’s coronation. The ceremony took place on May 6 at Westminster Abbey and even though it was a huger success, some people think that the royal couple tried to steal all the spotlight.
According to Sarah Vine from the Daily Mail, the Prince and Princess of Wales had a manipulative and selfish attitude. They released a set of videos where they showed the behind-the-scenes of the ceremony but most of the content is them talking about themselves.
“Wasn’t the coronation about Charles and Camilla? It’s lovely, and they really are an idyllic family – but there’s something just a bit too slick about it, a bit too party political broadcast. A bit, dare I say it, manipulative. I’d (almost) rather watch one of Harry’s worthy documentaries.”
Vine also added that the videos were a premature decision by Kensington Palace and that their image could be tainted. “It’s superficial, one-dimensional, like one of those adverts you see on TV in foreign hotels extolling the virtues of this or that tourist destination.” According to her, the videos show them in a very different light to what the public is used to.
