Prince William and Kate Middleton endured the most challenging period of their lives last year, following the Princess's cancer diagnosis, which came just weeks after the King's.

The Princess of Wales, now in remission, has spoken about her battle with the disease at several engagements.

Royal expert Katie Nicoll believes that, owing to the Waleses' recent struggles, their relationship has undergone a major shift.

According to Nicoll, William and Middleton are now more open in their relationship and unafraid to show PDA — a stark contrast to their early years as a married couple.

King Charles's newest royal portrait, unveiled at the Scottish Parliament on September 25, featured him smiling brightly at Sunken Garden, the grounds of his beloved Highlands estate at Balmoral Castle.

The portrait was unveiled by his sister, Princess Anne, and it showed Charles in a traditional Scottish kilt made from his famous tartan and holding a handcrafted walking stick, which was a gift from the Mey Highland Games.

However, what caught the attention of royal watchers was his new ring.

Life behind Palace walls has always been as much about perception as protocol, and not everyone who married into the royal family won hearts on both sides.

Former butler Paul Burrell has shed light on how Sarah Ferguson and Princess Diana were perceived ‘downstairs.’

He revealed that one was embraced with affection, while the other left the staff divided.

Recently, the Duchess of York found herself surrounded by controversy, and by Burrell's account, she was never far from them.
