The former aide of Catherine, Princess of Wales, has revealed the part of her royal role that left her "quite frustrated".
Natasha Archer left Kensington Palace in July 2025 after serving as the Princess of Wales's personal assistant and stylist for 15 years.
The 37-year-old founded her own luxury consultancy firm after she departed from the Palace, but has been keen to spell out the extent of her role as the senior private executive assistant to the Prince and Princess of Wales.
"I often get referred to as a stylist, and it’s quite frustrating," she told The Telegraph.
"There are a lot of other things that came with my role and with what I’m offering now with my consultancy.
"I’m not a traditional stylist, I’m looking at everything. Even admin support. I feel like it’s a unique talent that I can bring to specific people."
Ms Archer's royal career began while working for the Duke and Duchess of Gloucester in 2007.
