and is looking to the future with a &#8220;solution-focused lens.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;He is far more ruthless than his father,&#8221; Chard said, comparing William to <a target=\"_blank\" data-analytics-id=\"inline-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.marieclaire.com\/tag\/prince-charles\/\" data-auto-tag-linker=\"true\" data-before-rewrite-localise=\"https:\/\/www.marieclaire.com\/tag\/prince-charles\/\">King Charles<\/a>. &#8220;He always takes the harder line. He can see reputational damage escalating for the royal family and is reviewing a decisive way forward to combat further scandals.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Chard went on to explain that <a target=\"_blank\" data-analytics-id=\"inline-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.marieclaire.com\/celebrity\/royals\/prince-william-is-taking-control-of-the-palace-response-to-prince-andrew-scandal-following-criticism\/\" data-before-rewrite-localise=\"https:\/\/www.marieclaire.com\/celebrity\/royals\/prince-william-is-taking-control-of-the-palace-response-to-prince-andrew-scandal-following-criticism\/\">William has stepped up when it comes to dealing with Andrew&#8217;s scandal<\/a>, in part, because &#8220;he realizes it\u2019s harder for the King to deal with his brother than it will be for him to deal with his uncle in due course.&#8221;<\/p>\n<div id=\"slice-container-newsletterForm-articleInbodyContent-qfB52ZZqktp7z5XGAofi66\" class=\"slice-container newsletter-inbodyContent-slice newsletterForm-articleInbodyContent-qfB52ZZqktp7z5XGAofi66 slice-container-newsletterForm\">\n<div data-hydrate=\"true\" class=\"newsletter-form__wrapper newsletter-form__wrapper--inbodyContent\">\n<div class=\"newsletter-form__container\">\n<section class=\"newsletter-form__top-bar\"\/>\n<section class=\"newsletter-form__main-section\">\n<p class=\"newsletter-form__strapline\">Get exclusive access to fashion and beauty trends, hot-off-the-press celebrity news, and more.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>Still, Chard says, William has been left frustrated by the way the Andrew situation has been handled on the whole.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;He feels his father has teetered too long with the kid gloves approach,&#8221; Chard added. &#8220;Prince William and the whole royal family are fully supportive of King Charles taking a stronger stance against his brother. William would prefer a swift, clean break with Prince Andrew before things decline further. He also hopes to shield the king from the damage.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Going forward, Chard says, <a target=\"_blank\" data-analytics-id=\"inline-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.marieclaire.com\/celebrity\/royals\/prince-william-kate-middleton-hope-prince-andrew-will-disappear-now-that-hes-lost-royal-titles\/\" data-before-rewrite-localise=\"https:\/\/www.marieclaire.com\/celebrity\/royals\/prince-william-kate-middleton-hope-prince-andrew-will-disappear-now-that-hes-lost-royal-titles\/\">Will and Kate are expected to continue to take a hard line<\/a> when it comes to potential scandals in the royal family<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The Prince and <a target=\"_blank\" data-analytics-id=\"inline-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.marieclaire.com\/tag\/diana\/\" data-auto-tag-linker=\"true\" data-before-rewrite-localise=\"https:\/\/www.marieclaire.com\/tag\/diana\/\">Princess of Wales<\/a> are proud of the monarchy,&#8221; Chard explained. &#8220;Enduring Prince Andrew\u2019s scandals, they don\u2019t want any other sideshows blotting the royal family\u2019s good work.
