Kate Middleton<\/a><\/strong> has earned a reputation as one of the royal family\u2019s most accomplished public figures, but a new report claims Queen Elizabeth II<\/strong> gave her some memorable advice early in her royal journey. According to palace insiders, the late monarch encouraged the Princess of Wales to keep her conversations with members of the public shorter so she could include more people during royal engagements.<\/p>\n Kate joined the royal family after marrying Prince William in 2011. She has since become one of the monarchy\u2019s most recognizable working royals. She built a reputation for her composed and approachable style, whether attending Trooping the Colour, representing the Crown overseas, or greeting crowds during walkabouts. <\/p>\n However, insiders told RadarOnline.com<\/a> that she needed time to adjust to the pace of royal engagements. They said Queen Elizabeth II offered practical advice to help her navigate those early public appearances.<\/p>\n One palace source claimed the late Queen believed every person deserved attention. At the same time, she also understood the importance of keeping engagements moving. \u201cQueen Elizabeth always believed every member of the public deserved attention, but she also knew hundreds of people could be waiting,\u201d the insider alleged. \u201cKate\u2019s natural warmth sometimes meant conversations lasted much longer than scheduled, so she was encouraged to keep moving.\u201d<\/p>\n \u00a0\u201cIt wasn\u2019t criticism\u2014it was practical advice to essentially \u2018shut up a bit more\u2019 from someone who had perfected the role. Basically, Kate gabbed too much when she first joined the royals,\u201d the insider claimed.<\/p>\n Another royal source reportedly explained that the message was never about making Kate less friendly. Instead, it was to ensure she could meet as many people as possible during public appearances. \u201cThere was never any suggestion that Kate should become less friendly,\u201d the insider said. \u201cThe message was simply that a royal walkabout is carefully timed. If you spend too long with one person, dozens of others miss out. It became one of the first lessons she learned after joining the family.\u201d<\/p>\n Originally reported by Khushali Srivastava on <\/em>Reality Tea<\/a><\/em>.<\/em><\/p>\n The post Kate Middleton Was Told to \u2018Shut Up a Bit More\u2019 by This Royal \u2014 Source<\/a> appeared first on Mandatory<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n \u2018 The preceding article may include information circulated by third parties \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n \u2018 Some details of this article were extracted from the following source www.aol.com \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Kate Middleton has earned a reputation as one of the royal family\u2019s most accomplished public figures, but a new report claims Queen Elizabeth II gave her some memorable advice early in her royal journey.
