The King and Queen Consort wanted Kate Middleton to change the way she spelt her name because there were already too many other members of Royal Family whose names began with a ‘C’. Prince Harry has made the claim in his new controversial memoir Spare.

The Duke of Sussex said his father, then the Prince of Wales, made the request when the now Princess of Wales joined the Royal Family.

According to the Duke, his father felt there were too many names starting with a ‘C’ and it would cause confusion.

This could particularly be the case when it came to the cypers the personal monogram of a member of the Firm.

At the time without any changes Charles, Camilla and Catherine would have all used the single letter ‘C’.

In his memoir, the Duke also claims that the King admired the Princess of Wales’ hair having “often spoken” about how lovely it was, according to an extract in the Daily Mail.

He also mentions that the King and his grandmother the late Queen Elizabeth liked “women with their hair down” as well as minimal make up.

According to the Duke, Meghan Markle emulated this look when she went to meet her future father and mother-in-law at Clarence House.

In the book he recalls that they ate crumpets with marmite and salmon sandwiches.

A number of the more explosive revelations in the Duke’s memoir relate to the Princess of Wales.

He claimed that his brother and sister-in-law encouraged him to wear a Nazi uniform to fancy dress party in 2005.

The Duke made headlines when he wore the outfit to Richard Meade’s “native and colonial”-themed party while Prince William wore a lion costume.

According to a Spanish translation of the book, the Duchess of Sussex also upset the Princess of Wales when Meghan said that Kate must have a “baby brain” during a phone call in the run up to the royal wedding in 2018.

He also revealed that the Princess of Wales was irritated when his wife asked her if she could borrow some lip gloss only reluctantly giving her some.

The Sussexes were also offended when the Waleses’ switched place cards and changed seats at their wedding, according to The Daily Telegraph.

According to the Duke, he and his wife were following the American custom of placing couples next to each other.
