Royal commentator Phil Dampier recently lauded Kate Middleton’s remarkable inner strength, describing her as having a “core of steel.” In an interview with The Sun, Dampier praised the Princess of Wales for her resilience and strength, qualities he believes are comparable to those of the late Prince Philip.
Dampier emphasized that Kate Middleton’s fortitude reminds him of Prince Philip’s character, noting her ability to draw on inner reserves of strength. “I think Kate has got a sort of inner core of steel,” Dampier remarked. He went on to explain that her strong character is evident, even though she has faced significant personal challenges. “She’s quite a sort of steely character, and I think she’s a bit of a reminder of the late Prince Philip,” he added.
The commentator’s praise extended to comparing Kate’s strength to that of her husband, Prince William, and his father, Prince Charles. Dampier suggested that Kate’s resilience in the face of adversity might make her the stronger character in their family dynamic. “In many ways, she will be the stronger of the two [with Prince William] in getting through it,” he said, highlighting her determination to remain strong for her children.
Dampier hypothesized that Kate’s strength is not only for her own benefit but also to reassure her children—Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis—that everything will be okay. “She wants to be strong for her children,” Dampier noted. He believes that her demeanor serves as a positive example for her young family, demonstrating her commitment to their well-being despite any personal struggles she may face.
The praise reflects a broader recognition of Kate Middleton’s ability to maintain a composed and resilient public image while navigating the pressures of royal life. Dampier’s comments underscore the admiration for her strength and the role she plays in supporting her family and fulfilling her royal duties.
As the Princess of Wales continues to balance her public responsibilities with her personal life, her strength and resilience remain a significant point of discussion among royal observers. Dampier’s insights offer a glimpse into the qualities that make Kate Middleton a respected and admired figure both within the royal family and among the public.
