Catherine, Princess of Wales Helps Settle Harriet Phillips Into Royal Life (Entertainment)
The former NHS nurse says the Princess of Wales is a trusted source of advice as she settles into royal duties after marrying Peter Phillips.
Harriet Phillips, the newest member of the Royal Family, revealed on Monday she turns to the 'open-hearted' Princess of Wales for 'advice and guidance' after marrying Peter Phillips on June 6.
The 46-year-old former NHS specialist nurse wed Peter Phillips, son of the Princess Royal, on June 6 at All Saints Church in Kemble, Gloucestershire, in a ceremony she described as a 'slice of heaven.'
Harriet recalled meeting Prince William and Catherine while on holiday in the Scilly Isles, saying, 'I've had an incredible experience being welcomed in.' She also praised the King and Queen for being 'so welcoming' to her and daughter Georgina.
Following her marriage, Harriet quit the NHS to accept her first royal patronage with Home-Start Cotswolds, describing the role as a 'natural step, rather than a complete change of direction.'
Harriet's praise for Catherine counters previous claims by the Duchess of Sussex, who often 'suggested' the Princess of Wales has an unwelcoming nature. Observers noted her positive experiences have effectively 'debunked' those past allegations.
