Carole Middleton could get the royal treatment - with TV series about her life

Royal writer Daisy Goodwin wants to pen her next TV drama about Prince William’s mother-in-law, Carole Middleton.

Daisy, who created the hit series Victoria, believes former air hostess Carole, 64, is the perfect subject.

“People ask me if I’d like to write a drama about Harry and Meghan but I actually think I would like to write about Carole Middleton,” she revealed.

“Carole has an extra­ordinary story. She is a very, very interesting woman and she deserves a series.”
