Kate Middleton is often described as the key figure connecting King Charles and Prince William, with some experts calling her "solution-focused." British broadcaster Helena Chard shared her perspective in a conversation with Fox News Digital, noting that King Charles is deeply fond of his daughter-in-law. According to Chard, the King admires Kate's qualities, such as her empathy, resilience, and the "wow factor" she brings to the royal family.

Helena also pointed out that Kate's ability to bring harmony is particularly important, given the occasional tensions between King Charles and his son. In fact, journalist Robert Jobson mentioned in his book Catherine, the Princess of Wales a past disagreement between the two over Prince William's decision to fly a helicopter, which King Charles had disagreed with due to concerns about the pilot's experience.

Chard emphasized Kate's role in this dynamic, saying, "She is solution-focused and is certainly the glue between Prince William and King Charles." Further underscoring her influence, an insider shared with Robert Jobson that Kate is someone who strives to understand both sides of any disagreement, describing her as the "emotionally mature one" in the family. The courtier added that King Charles recognizes Kate's positive influence on the entire family and holds her in high regard.
