Queen Consort Camilla and Kate Middleton are seemingly getting closer according to royal commentators, after the two were positioned together for the Remembrance service earlier this month.
The two watched the service, honouring the contribution of military and civilian servicemen and women in World Wars One and Two, and other conflicts, from a balcony in Whitehall, overlooking the Cenotaph.
Mail on Sunday’s Charlotte Griffiths discussed the pair’s relationship, saying: “I think there was a real warmth between the two of them and I didn’t actually notice it was missing until I now am seeing it more and more as the weeks go by.
“I didn’t really notice before that they didn’t give each other those looks or those friendly hand gestures so much as they do now, and I think its probably because they’re united by a common enemy, to say the least.

“They’re both going to be Queen one day, because Camilla will be dowager queen and Kate will be Queen consort, so they’ll be united by that.
“They’re in a business relationship and they’re going to have more and more balcony appearances like that, so they may as well get on and become close.
“And she has a lot of respect for Camilla. Kate is really close with her own mother, so she’s probably never been incredibly close with Camilla but maybe as the years go by, Kate can be a sort of support for Camilla as she gets older, and works really hard.”
Kate appeared to become emotional and teared up at one stage during the sombre Remembrance ceremony in front of Camilla.
Princess Kate welled up with emotion during the Remembrance Sunday service at the Cenotaph today.PADaily Mail Columnist Sarah Vine said of the pair: “I think Camilla’s a little bit shaky. She’s very tired after this tour so maybe there’s just a little bit of Kate’s sensitive side.
“She’s quite maternal, Catherine, isn’t she? She’s quite a kind person."
