The connection between Elliot and the royal family goes beyond professional ties. Not only did she serve as a coronation attendant for Queen Camilla, but her grandsons also played pivotal roles during the historic event. This blend of personal and professional relationships underscores the intricate web within the royal family.

The Duchy's new direction

Under Prince William's stewardship, the Duchy of Cornwall is poised for change. With a whopping $30 million income in his first year at the helm, the Duke of Cornwall is making decisions that signal a shift in how royal affairs are managed, including the handling of interior design contracts.

Despite the change, the bond between Queen Camilla and her sister remains unshaken, with the duo continuing their summer tradition of attending Wimbledon, showcasing the strength of family ties amidst professional changes.
