In recent days, Prince William has sparked questions by not bowing to Queen Camilla at the Commonwealth Day event, but recent images explain the controversial act of the next heir to the throne toward his stepmother.
On Monday, 11th, during the Commonwealth Day service at Westminster Abbey, it was seen that the Prince of Wales was warmly greeting the wife of his father, King Charles III, with kisses on both cheeks, but he did not bow, causing doubts among royal followers.

On the contrary, the Duke and Duchess of Edinburgh bowed and politely greeted the Queen. However, there is a reason behind this action, as it is common that when a member of the royal family is not seen greeting the monarchs with a bow, it is because they already met earlier that day.
New photos of the event show the two members of the royal family talking and smiling together before the national anthem started, which could explain why Prince William did not make the bow later and also show a strong union among the royals during these difficult times in the monarchy.
