'I sometimes wonder whether I should have asked myself more questions about the Royal Family’s colonialist history before I made my way beneath the arches of St James’s for the first time.'
Colleen Harris at Buckingham Palace after receiving the Royal Victorian Order from King Charles III, then the Prince of Wales.I sometimes wonder whether I should have asked myself more questions about the Royal Family’s colonialist history before I made my way beneath the arches of St James’s for the first time, but I was focused on doing a good job for both the prince and my parents.
What I did do at the Palace, though, is push for change from within – and, happily, I had the full support of the Prince of Wales. Right away, he gave me a senior title and made me a member of the Royal Household, granting me a certain status and ensuring I met and had the approval of the Queen, whom he adored.
King Charles may no longer be able to speak as freely, but his principles – and his sense of devotion and generosity – will serve him well in the years ahead. Hiswill take place in a different world from the one the Queen inherited in 1952, and the realm will only change further as time goes by.
