After facing one shocking royal crisis after another in recent months, the Prince of Wales has decided he’s had enough and is determined “to get the monarchy back on track” by swiping the crown from
his father!
“William’s taking no prisoners,” a well-placed palace source reveals to Woman’s Day.
“He feels the royals have been turned into a soap opera, but he believes that with Kate by his side, they can turn it around. “William is desperate to get the monarchy back on track. He wants to slim down the roster, impose order, and run a modern, efficient and useful institution that the public actually wants. He’s ready to become king.”
Behind the scenes, William, 43, has been making a number of strategic moves in order for this to happen. Aware that the King, 77, has his trusty team of advisors and strategists – whom Prince Harry has dubbed the “men in grey suits” – William has hired a new crisis PR firm, who will also focus on handling what’s been dubbed the “Andrew and Harry problems”, as well as ensuring his own public profile remains favourable.
William’s team is said to be in discussions about him taking part in a high-profile Netflix documentary or a similar project to boost his popularity. And to show how serious he is about focusing on his royal duties, last week, William announced the sale of huge tranches of land he inherited from his father that are worth billions.
“He plans to hit the ground running when he’s crowned,” says our insider.
“With his own team of handlers, completely separate from the palace, he’s been able to establish his own opinions, regardless of the King’s, and it’s working – calls for abdication are increasing and the British people want change. William has every intention of delivering.”
Taking a stand
William’s already positioned himself firmly in alignment with the British public regarding former prince Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor’s involvement in the Jeffrey Epstein scandal. He’s also shown strong leadership by making it clear Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie are no longer part of the core royals, as was evident from their absence at the Easter service.
He’s told Princess Anne that it’s “madness” that she even considered housing Andrew after he was evicted from the Royal Lodge. And he’s even told the Queen that she needs to order his father to rest more, given his health status.
But while William may feel ready to take up the role he’s been preparing for his whole life, there’s one major roadblock to his plans – Charles. In what sources are dubbing a “classic royal power play”, the King has moved quickly in retaliation, with Charles reportedly telling his heir that he’s not ready to rule – and he needs to have therapy first!
Charles calls for more training
“Charles believes William needs to undergo a lot more training before he’s ready for the throne,” a second insider spills, explaining that Charles wants his son to learn how to “set aside emotions” and put the monarchy first.
“William is being encouraged to seek guidance and support – effectively being ‘in therapy’ to help train him for the throne and prepare him for the diplomatic demands of kingship.”
Fueling William’s frustration
Unsurprisingly, William is taking this as another example of how his father rails against anyone who challenges him – and a strong argument for him to step down immediately.
“William’s sick of the secrecy and the lies,” our palace source says.
“He admires what Queen Margrethe of Denmark did, giving her son the chance to find his feet while she’s still around to advise. “There’s a groundswell of support for this to happen – and it’s an ideal scenario for William.”
