Prince Harry's girlfriend Cressida Bonas won't see her boyfriend Prince Harry for a month while he's away in Antarctica. Luckily, Cressida Bonas' new friendship with Kate Middleton will keep her company. But are Kensington Palace officials critical of Prince Harry's girlfriend Cressida Bonas, and her influence?

As we previously reported, Prince Harry and his girlfriend Cressida Bonas will spend a month apart while Prince Harry is in Antarctica for the Walking With The Wounded South Pole Allied Challenge. He left last Sunday.

Reports suggested that Kate Middleton and Cressida Bonas were feuding as the significant others of royal brothers Prince William and Prince Harry. But now, the two are getting on nicely. Kate has reportedly taken Cressida under her wing and is supporting Cressy while Harry is away.

"Cressida is so happy to have Kate on her side, especially now Harry's almost uncontactable," an insider tells Look magazine.​

However, officials at Kensington Palace are not too pleased with their new friendship.

Certain senior officials at the palace are said to be concerned with the changes Kate has already brought in, and they are worried that this is set to continue with Cressida, WeWomen.com reports.

An insider told Look magazine: "There is a fear that everything is changing so fast."

"Many of the more senior officials at the palace don't like the modernization of the royals, and with Kate and Cressida becoming more influential, there's obviously a worry that even more changes are afoot."

Only time will tell how serious Harry and Cressida are - they have been dating for about 18 months already. There is a lot of speculation that the two will get engaged by next year.

And luckily for Cressida, Prince Harry will be back from his trip just in time for Christmas, hopefully to enjoy the holidays with his girlfriend, The Daily Beast reports.
