Catherine In TEARS As William Makes BOLD DECISION About Charlotte And Louis In The Future
The world is celebrating after Princess Katherine’s return to public duties, but her comeback has thrown up a major issue no one’s talking about. With their eldest son’s future laid out for him, she and her husband William are likely to encourage a different path for their two youngest children’s future. This would represent a major change in the way things have been done, but it seems that William and Catherine believe this is what would be best for their kids.
Last weekend saw a Trooping the Colour event, marking the special occasion of the Princess of Wales’ return to public life, albeit briefly. An added bonus of her appearance was the inclusion of her and Prince William’s three children, George, Charlotte, and Louie. Trooping the Colour is unlikely to be any child’s idea of fun, and this was especially clear in the photos of 10-year-old Prince George, who looked visibly uncomfortable and, at moments, thunderously serious.
At first glance, the life of a royal may seem glamorous, but living under the constant pressure of the monarchy isn’t all it’s cracked up to be. Knowing this, it seems that Prince William may have already made a significant decision regarding the future of his children when they eventually take on their royal duties. Under radical plans to reshape the future of the monarchy, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louie will likely be encouraged not to become working royals.
This move is thought to be influenced by the fallout from Prince Harry’s exit as a working royal in 2020. Speaking to a publication, one insider revealed, “The working assumption is that the younger two children will get on and do their own thing. They will be encouraged not to become working royals.”
This comment follows reports that William not only supports his father King Charles’ drive to slim down the monarchy but may go even further—likely not inviting his younger children to become working royals. According to an anonymous friend, “William sees the small European monarchies as the model for the future,” hinting that he and Katherine may be the only working royals when William eventually ascends the throne, if all goes according to plan.
Both Katherine and William are reportedly keen to avoid having Charlotte and Louie feel like “spares” in the way that Prince Harry did as William’s younger brother. To prevent history from repeating itself, the couple has kept their children at arm’s length from royal duties. This strategic distancing allows Charlotte and Louie to potentially choose their own paths in life, rather than being locked into royal roles.
Of course, this option isn’t available for George, but the children have been largely shielded from public life. The couple’s deliberate strategy exposes them to the minimum amount of royal duties, ensuring that Charlotte and Louie can make their own choices about their futures.
Royal life also comes with a rigid schedule and constant awareness of one’s position. William seems determined to protect his children from the same challenges he faced growing up. While his childhood was filled with privilege, it was also marked by the public scrutiny of his parents’ tumultuous marriage and the tragic death of his mother, Princess Diana. He wants to ensure his children have a secure, loving home environment, with him and Katherine providing a strong parental unit.
The Prince and Princess of Wales have often been praised for their modern approach to parenting. Whether using a “chat sofa” to discipline their little ones or spending time together in the kitchen as a family (a practice the late Queen Elizabeth reportedly disapproved of), the couple has broken away from royal traditions to give their three children as normal a childhood as possible. They also reportedly follow strict rules designed to empower their young royals, ensuring a balanced upbringing despite their high-profile lives.
