During the last month, the British Royal Family was splashed by one of its biggest scandals in recent times. Several UK tabloids published an alleged infidelity of Prince William to Kate Middleton, produced on Valentine’s Day.
In addition, the media dared to give the name of the third woman in discord and rescued the figure of Rose Hanbury, a friend of the Princess of Wales, who was already related to the son of Charles III in 2019 after the publication of photographs at a private party.
However, such news disappeared completely within the borders of the nation of Elizabeth II. The mysterious case baptized as ‘Williamgate‘ was based on the hypothesis that Palace could have appealed to the so-called ‘super-injunction’, an effective legal tool resorted to by the powerful people when they want to silence the media.
.
Despite this attempt to silence rumors, Rose Hanbury is back in the headlines, since, as of today, she is closer to Buckingham than ever. According to the newspaper ‘Daily Mail’, the Crown, headed by the current monarch Charles III, has decided to assign a new role of greater relevance to the husband of the woman linked to Prince William within the Royal House.
David Cholmondeley has been appointed permanent Lord-in-Waiting, a position similar to that of lady-in-waiting. This role will henceforth give him a front-line position in the monarchy. Rose Hanbury’s husband will have to attend the most important events and may even represent the monarch at official functions, as he is currently a senior official of the institution.
Despite having been dismissed in the reduction of staff after the death of Queen Elizabeth II, the arrival of his son to the throne has returned him to Buckingham and with a better position, since in the past Cholmondeley was Lord Great Chamberlain, whose functions are reduced to guide the monarch and wear the crown on a cushion in his hands.
Although at first this new bureaucratic change may not arouse great interest, the local British press has put its focus on the near future, which could trigger the meeting between Hanbury and the Prince and Princess of Wales, heirs to the House.
Moreover, they wonder whether the latter will respect the decision of King Charles III and will keep the new lord in his position when they become the head of the institution. Apart from these assumptions, David Cholmondeley is, in part, known for his close friendship with Kate Middleton and William of England, of whom he even became a neighbor in the county of Norfolk.
However, this bond was broken in 2019 when the alleged romance between Rose Hambury and the future monarch of the United Kingdom came to light. Therefore, the former model has been on the sidelines of the media spotlight all this time by not attending any of the events organized by Buckingham.
Now, the new position of her husband has put the doubt in the air. But looking back, Rose Hanbury is completely away from the Marquess‘s work. It only remains to wait to see if she maintains her position or decides to make a U-turn to continue feeding the headlines of the British tabloids.
