Prince Harry’s stripped rugby titles given to Kate Middleton
If there was one toe-tapping anthem that should be bouncing off the Gainsboroughs and Canalettos up and down the corridors of Buckingham Palace right now it would be the Eurythmics’ Sisters Are Doing It For Themselves.
Over the last 18 months it has been the house of Windsor’s female HRHs who have formed the vanguard to buck up a beleaguered Britain and to ensure that the monarchy played a blinder during the pandemic.
They zoomed, chatted and masked up proving that even stuck in the wilds of Norfolk or Scotland, all a Windsor girl needs to Do Her Bit is decent Wi-Fi, a beige wall and someone to restrain the Jack Russels from bursting into frame.
Now, that hard work is being rewarded with reports that Kate is to be given two new roles as the patron of the Rugby Football Union (RFU) and Rugby Football League (RFL).
While the chance to be photographed giddily sandwiched between sweaty, hulking players on occasion does sound like a treat any duchess with a pulse would enjoy, what makes this news highly significant is that until late February, those very roles belonged to her brother-in-law Prince Harry.
In a year and a half of milestone moments, we’ve hit another one. Harry is reportedly about to be officially replaced.
