Kate Middleton has been bestowed with a new honour by King Charles, but a royal expert has claimed it is "one of the lowest orders" there is, meaning no member of the Royal Family has had it before. A new raft of honours was announced by the King on Tuesday and on the list was the Princess of Wales, who was appointed Royal Companion of The Order of the Companions of Honour. But if the honour doesn't seem too familiar, royal blogger Gertrude Daly reckons there is a reason for that, as she says members of the family "usually receive much higher honours".
