I remember looking at Kate a few years ago and thinking she had too many wrinkles for her age. I thought given their rainy climate and the fact that they always wear hats would shield them from aging as fast. They also have money which they obviously aren’t using for skincare. I have been to Europe but not the UK. Do the people of the UK typically age fast? I am in my 70s and my relatives in their 90s look younger than Camilla, Princess Anne, and King Charles.

King Charles and Camilla are in their 70's. They look their ages. I have no idea what Princess Anne looks like.

She looks like a horse, just as she always has.

Here is a picture where I think she looks good

I thik Camilla looks perfectly fine, even nice.

+1. Yeah. Meghan Markle has a great body but standing next to Kate she looked a bit frumpy

If Meghan Markle looks frumpy I look like an ogre under a bridge.

I could disagree more. Meghan looked elegant and Kate looked extra stiff.

I think they are both beautiful women, better than the average person. There is no need to tear one down to build the other up.

I think they're both attractive in different ways, and have their good and less good qualities, like all of us.
Kate looks very thin in photos which probably means she is too thin IRL. But she always looks put together and wears her clothes well. Meghan for some reason never seems to have clothing that fits her properly.

Meghan’s stylist in the UK was perfect for her. Too bad she hasn’t found someone as good in the US.

I agree. Recently I was wanting to find a source where I could look at pictures of older women with faces that haven’t been affected by cosmetic procedures, just to reacquaint myself with what people normally look like, and I couldn’t even think of where to find that.

Charles and Camilla look they could be Martha Stewart’s parents and she is in her 80’s. Also Nancy Pelosi’s parents and isn’t she like 90?

Nancy Pelosi looks old, just a different kind of old. The plastic surgery is not fooling anyone.

A better, more stylish, not geriatric but still appropriate old. I like Nancy's look.

+1. She puts effort into her look, unlike a lot of politicians.

She does, but let's be real for a moment. Nancy has had a facelift and some other work done. The Royal and old money Brits don't go in for all that. They age naturally and are in the outdoors a lot.

I do not believe for one minute that Kate hasn’t had surgery or injectables. Meghan has probably had a little surgery too but I’d expect that from an actress. But Kate’s face isn’t her original one, either. She had charming features, somewhat elfin almost. Cigarettes, sunbathing and extreme thinness will probably change a person.

She well may have done but she doesn’t look like a waxworks version of herself (or didn’t the last time I saw her).

It's because K is so thin. M is built differently and she looks like she has a wide waist next to K, which I bet she doesn't. There's a reason why runaway models are so thin - clothes look so much better on very tall and very thin people.

Meghan does have a wide waist, she is an apple shape. Kate isn’t just thin, she is super narrow.

she didn't used to be narrow though - not in college. How does she do it?

how do you know what she looked like in college? Let's not forget we were all heavier and chubbier in college. Partially lifestyle, partially being late teens baby fat.

Uh, duh, there are like a million photos of her from college floating around the web, showing her distinctly more robust and healthy looking.

I know some women gain weight as they get older and have kids but this is not the case for all. Plenty of women also thin out and lose the college baby face

I think many women also start taking their health more seriously in their later 20s and 30s where you can't survive on junk food like you used to. They start to exercise more, drink more water, less junk food and alcohol.

Kate didn’t get really thin until the engagement. She was rounder and curvier even in her 20s when they were dating. I think at least part of it is being photographed all the time. I hope it’s just diet/exercise but it makes me think of Diana

This^. Make up, cosmetic enhancements, airbrushing and filters are making natural look obsolete in here in United States.

Even Mrs Obama has changed and reverse aged since becoming friends with celebrities.

Celebrities are only as good as their dermatologist, make up person, hair stylist, wardrobe person, photography choreographer, airbrusher.

She’s an actress for godsakes, not British royalty. Of course she’s had work, it’s her job to look good.

I think Camilla looks very similar to Jill Biden and they are about the same age (Camilla a few years older).

Also, on Kate—I wonder if she has stomach issues. I know a lot of women who develop stomach issues like IBS or food intolerances in their 30s and end up on restricted diets, cutting dairy or wheat or fats. Most of the very thin middle aged women I know fall into this category—they eat healthy but can’t eat a lot of the yummy foods that keep some padding kn the rest of us or they end up with intestinal distress. The other really thin women I know are distance runners.

She was an actress who was considered hot and beautiful long before she even met Harry. For God's sake, you people are absurd. Meghan is a beautiful woman who knows how to dress in America and elsewhere.

Jill Biden is old but pretty. Like a popular high school girl who grew old, or a pretty girl at the beach who had kids and then became a grandmother.

Camilla is butt ugly. I'm sorry to say it. There is no comparison.

A lot of disordered eaters make up sensitivities and allergies, too. I think it is fair to assume Kate is on a very restrictive diet.
