“Are You Even Sane, Charles?” Camilla Snaps After King Charles Sets Coronation Date for Queen Kate: “I’ll Walk Out of This House If You Dare…”
In what royal insiders are calling the boldest move of his reign, King Charles III has reportedly set a coronation date for Princess Catherine, declaring her the future “Queen Consort in ceremony” — and sparking a furious showdown with Queen Camilla behind closed doors.
The confrontation, which allegedly took place in the King’s private study at Highgrove House, followed a private briefing with senior aides, in which Charles approved May 24th, 2026 as the date for a symbolic public coronation of Kate Middleton as “Queen-in-Waiting.”
The moment Camilla heard the news, royal aides say she lost all composure.
“Are you even sane, Charles?!” Camilla reportedly shouted. “You want to crown her while I’m still here? While I’m still your Queen? I’ll walk out of this house if you dare…”
The remark stunned staff and left even the King speechless. According to sources, Camilla saw the move not as a mere formality — but as a personal betrayal.
“Camilla felt blindsided,” one royal courtier confided. “She believed she and Charles were united in their legacy — and suddenly, he’s preparing her successor… publicly.”
King Charles, however, is said to be determined. Despite growing health concerns and public questions about the future of the monarchy, he reportedly told senior advisors:
“Kate is the face the world trusts. If I don’t set the stage for her now, I risk leaving behind chaos.”
The coronation — though symbolic — would include a ceremonial crowning, a public vow of service, and recognition by key members of the Church of England. It would not dethrone Camilla or alter the line of succession, but would position Kate as a reigning figure alongside Prince William in all but name.
Prince William, caught between loyalty to his father and support for his wife, is said to have urged calm. Sources say he privately told Charles:
“Please, not like this. Don’t start a war under our own roof.”
The decision has already sent ripples through the royal household. Staff are divided. Some view it as a visionary step, cementing the future queen’s role with dignity and modern appeal. Others fear it may publicly humiliate Camilla, who worked hard to gain acceptance from both the public and the royal family after her controversial entry into royal life.
Outside the palace walls, the British public appears torn. While many welcome the idea of “Queen Kate”, others criticize the timing as disrespectful to Camilla and destabilizing to a monarchy that’s already endured multiple crises in recent years.
As for Camilla, insiders say she has left Highgrove and returned to her private residence, refusing all calls from Charles since the argument.
