Kate Middleton 'furious' with Queen Camilla after curtsy snub

The Royal Family have been engulfed in drama recently, and now one royal biographer has claimed that it's not cooled down.

Rumours have been swirling of growing tensions between Queen Camilla and Kate Middleton, according to one royal biographer.

Speaking on Dan Wootton Tonight on Tuesday, author Tom Bower claimed that the Princess of Wales is 'angry' at the Queen due to the ceremony's guest list.

The royal expert also claimed that several individuals who helped change Camilla's image 'from mistress to Queen' were 'furious' that they weren't invited to the coronation, reports news.com.

He said: "If you look at the Coronation footage, as the King and Queen leave the thrones and head for the exit of Westminster Abbey, you’ll see that everyone bows and curtsies to the King and no one moves a limb, a muscle when Camilla passes."

Continuing, he added: "And that’s because they were angry with Camilla.

“Camilla brought twenty Parker Bowles’ to the Coronation and there were four Middletons.”

Mr Bower continued: “All the people that helped Camilla get the crown on her head were excluded from that coronation and they were furious.

“And not only that, Kate and William were angry too. That anger went right through that small part of the congregation by the throne, at the centre of Westminster Abbey.

“And in that moment it was absolutely noticeable to those people who had been excluded that nobody -let alone Kate – curtsied to Queen Camilla.”

Wootton went on to make the point that Kate's brother and sister were not allowed to bring their partners to the coronation, which Tom confirmed.

“And what was even more noticeable was at the Windsor concert the following day, William makes no reference to Queen Camilla. So there is a tension there,” the author said.

“The whole problem with Camilla is that she’s exhausted at the moment.

“Those who met her in the weeks before the Coronation noticed a very tired, very worn-out woman with tell-tale signs of age and she’s clearly exhausted by the whole thing.

“That’s why today, Kate was in Bristol behaving like the Queen, very popular with the public.

“But Camilla has disappeared and that is a dangerous position for Charles to be in.”

It's not the first time alleged drama has surrounded Camilla.

Earlier this month, Queen Camilla reportedly had a strained exchange with Princess Anne over her new title.

The night before the coronation, the Princess Royal reportedly informed Camilla that her title is Queen Consort and not Queen, according to David Emanuel.

The designer made the claim that the topic of Camilla's new title is 'highly charged' with a lot of people allegedly 'unhappy' that she is being referred to as Queen instead of Queen Consort.

According to reports, Camilla was reportedly confronted by Anne, as the designer - who was Princess Diana's dressmaker - said the 'whole situation' is 'very difficult' amid allegations that not everyone is willing to accept her new title.

“I heard that there was a Coronation dinner with which obviously the King and Camilla were there,” he said.

“Apparently the Princess Royal said, ‘You’re not Queen, you’re the Queen’s consort’"
