URGENT: PRINCE WILLIAM SPEAKS ABOUT THE SEPARATION OF KING CHARLES III AND QUEEN CAMILLA

Prince William and Queen Camilla have put on a united front to support King Charles, who is battling cancer, but things weren’t always so cordial between them.

Fox News Digital that, at first, the heir to the British throne had no love for his stepmother after witnessing the messy, public breakdown of his parents’ marriage.

“Prince William initially couldn’t stand Camilla,” Fordwich told Fox News Digital. “[But] he has come to appreciate her steadfast dedication to duty.

They have become closer and have bonded over their spouses coping with cancer treatment.”Camilla has a calming influence on King Charles.

Prince William appreciates that she also makes his father happy,” Fordwich added.

Fordwich’s claims came shortly after it was revealed Camilla isn’t afraid to put William in check whenever she feels he’s being disrespectful to his father.

Robert Jobson, author of the new biography “Catherine, Princess of Wales,” recalled one incident when William and wife Kate Middleton asked to join Charles and Camilla’s security convoy leaving Windsor Castle.

In an excerpt published by the U.K.’s Mirror, the royal correspondent claimed that the younger royals kept the older couple waiting, to Camilla’s dismay.

Jobson wrote that Camilla told Charles to leave the pair behind to prove a point to William.

“When Charles was kept waiting several minutes for the couple, Camilla insisted they go without them,” Jobson wrote. “As William and Catherine emerged, all they could see were the blue flashing lights of the motorbikes disappearing in the distance.”

The book noted that Camilla would often give William “subtle” reminders of the hierarchy.
