King Charles’s Historic Move: Catherine Granted 100-Year-Old Royal Honor — Camilla Reportedly Left in Turmoil
A major shift in royal tradition has taken place — and it’s causing waves inside the palace.
Princess Catherine of Wales has become the first royal in over a century to take on the historic responsibility of issuing Royal Warrants, a prestigious honor previously held only by men — and not since Queen Mary in 1910.
This bold decision by King Charles III is being hailed as a monumental endorsement of Catherine’s rising status within the royal family. But behind the scenes, it’s reportedly left Queen Camilla both shocked and emotional.
A Title with History and Power
Royal Warrants are formal endorsements awarded to British businesses that supply goods or services to the royal family. These marks of royal favor are more than symbolic — they elevate brands, boost reputations, and reinforce the Crown’s influence on British industry.
Previously, King Charles issued them during his time as Prince of Wales, but notably, neither the late Princess Diana nor Queen Camilla, during her tenure as Duchess of Cornwall or even as Queen Consort, were entrusted with this authority.
That makes Princess Catherine the first Princess of Wales in 115 years to hold this role — a clear signal of how central she is to the monarchy’s future.
