The then-Lord President of the Council stole the show after carrying the ceremonial sword when Charles was crowned at Westminster Abbey in 2023.
Ms Mordaunt, who backed Brexit, was also popular among members in the influential Conservative Home Cabinet league table.
Since her election defeat, she has become chairwoman of the Coalition for Global Prosperity which aims to promote the UK as a “force for good” around the world in international aid and development.
