Rose Hanbury, the Marchioness of Cholmondeley, is one ofKate Middleton’sclosest friends.
Or, at least, she was.
The two ladies subsequently hosted a gala dinner at the Hanburys' luxurious rural home in Norfolk in 2016.

The following year, the Marchioness sat next toPrince Harryat a state dinner in Buckingham palace.
She also attended a banquet hosted by the Queen for President Trump in 2019.
The former model also briefly worked in Parliament as a researcher for Conservative MP Michael Gove.

(Still, not too shabby.)
Both women have ignored the reports entirely with insiders advising they are entirely false.
Plus, they were spotted at an event together as recently as January of this year.
So, whatever the true state of their friendship, they are at least keeping up appearances.
