Carole Middleton ‘desperately’ trying to shield Kate Middleton from her crucial woes
Soooooo, Carole Middleton’s brand, Party Pieces, is in a huge amount of debt…which isn’t great news for the Middletons. Like, apparently things are so bad that Carole is “desperately” trying to shield her daughter Princess Kate from her financial woes.
You can get all the deets on Party Pieces’s debt right this way, but if you’re wondering how Kate’s fancy in-laws feel about everything, royal expert Christopher Andersen has an update! While speaking to Us Weekly, the author said “No one in the royal family is embarrassed by the failure of Party Pieces,” and noted that “between the king’s cancer battle and Kate’s cancer battle, the last thing they have on their minds is how much the Middletons owe their creditors.”
Fair enough! Andersen also pointed out that the Middletons themselves are still rich. (In case you were worried, lol.)
“People shouldn’t make the mistake that the Middletons are broke, because they decidedly are not,” Andersen insisted. “Their business went belly-up because of things entirely out of their control, but that doesn’t mean they haven’t got substantial personal assets.”
According to Andersen, Carole still has a “considerable” fortune, which the author expounded on: “The party supply business she founded flourished for years until, like so many other businesses, it was undone by COVID. For nearly two years, nobody was giving children’s parties and the lingering effects have been devastating. The entire market for what Party Pieces was selling went straight off the end of a cliff.”
Whelp. Speaking of royal finances…
