The Princess of Wales has had a tough few months after Omid Scobie's book and public attacks

Princess Kate will use her Christmas Day appearance to show she is "in control" after the public backlash, a style expert exclusively told GB News.

The Princess of Wales will join King Charles and the rest of the Royal Family in Sandringham on Christmas Day, and a commentator believes she will use the moment to show the world she is "poised, in control and elegant".


Kate, 41, has recently undergone criticism from fans for her perceived lack of work ethic, and for being named as one of the alleged royals involved in raising "concern" over Prince Archie's skin colour in the Dutch version of Omid Scobie's book Endgame.

After the public backlash, a style expert spoke exclusively to GB News to explain how Kate will navigate Christmas Day.

Style expert Marian Kwei said: "Kate is sending across messages with her clothing in relation to the attacks on her in Endgame and this will continue until Christmas Day.

"It was certainly not by chance that for her appearance at the Diplomatic Reception some days after the controversial Endgame headlines, she chose to repeat a stunning sequin Jenny Packham gown.

"She initially wore it earlier this year in June at Jordan's Crown Prince Hussein's royal wedding reception.

"At the time it was hailed as her most glamorous look to date.

"By choosing her best outfit this far (as accessorised again with Queen Elizabeth ll diamond Greville earrings) Kate is refuting Endgame allegations and is decreeing loud and clear that her person is dignified and respectable.

"This is exactly what the princess seeks to exude at this time."

The style expert believes that Kate will choose an outfit on Christmas Day to send an important message.

Kwei added: "She will continue until Christmas Day to use her image through her outfit choices to show that she is poised, in control and elegant."

At last year's Sandringham royal walkabout, Kate was dressed head-to-toe in deep forest green.

The princess wore a tailored coat from Alexander McQueen which she had worn before.

This was Kate's first appearance at Sandringham in three years, as the coronavirus meant the royals could not gather on the Norfolk estate in 2020 and 2021.

In 2019, the mother-of-three looked glamorous in a custom fur-trimmed Catherine Walker coat.
