Prince William\u2019s future monarchy seems to revolve around change, but there\u2019s one narrative he can\u2019t seem to get rid of \u2014 and it\u2019s about his temperament.<\/a><\/p>\n Royal expert Richard Fitzwilliams praised<\/a> the Prince of Wales to the Daily Mail<\/em> for his \u201cruthless streak\u201d because he believes it \u201cis needed in today\u2019s world\u201d in terms of diplomacy<\/a>, but not everyone sees it as a blessing.<\/p>\n More from SheKnows<\/strong><\/p>\n Royal journalist Roya Nikkhah told Times Radio<\/em>, per the Daily Mail<\/em>, said \u201cWilliam is someone who does hold a grudge, he does choose sides. If someone picks the other side, he remembers that.\u201d<\/p>\n Palace watchers know very well that his feud with Prince Harry and Meghan Markle runs deep, much to his own detriment. A February report from The Independent<\/em> revealed<\/a> that Gen A and Gen Z find William to be nothing more than a \u201cnepo baby.\u201d<\/a><\/p>\n \u201cHaving grown up amid a cost-of-living crisis, Gen Z and Gen A tend to have little patience for unearned privilege. They do not see William and Kate as the dynamic future of the monarchy, but as beneficiaries of inherited status,\u201d the article explained while noting that many found William to be \u201ccold\u201d and \u201cunkind\u201d toward Harry.<\/p>\n Still, royalists want the palace to remain strong for the future, and they don\u2019t see King Charles leading the way.<\/p>\n \u201cCharles leads with his heart. William leads with strategy,\u201d a royal insider told<\/a> Rob Shuter\u2019s Naughty But Nice<\/em> Substack. The Prince of Wales \u201cis not afraid to make hard calls,\u201d and that is why the Duke of Sussex and the ex-prince Andrew are permanently on the outs with the royal family.<\/a><\/p>\n \u201cHe doesn\u2019t forget, and he doesn\u2019t forgive easily,\u201d the source claimed. \u201cIf you cross the line, that\u2019s it.\u201d<\/p>\n William also appears to be moving his cousins, Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie, to the sidelines amid Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor and Sarah Ferguson\u2019s Jeffrey Epstein scandal. Fitzwilliams thinks the cousins\u2019 royal exit<\/a> is next on William\u2019s agenda.<\/p>\n \u201c[William] has never been close to Beatrice and Eugenie, Andrew and Sarah\u2019s daughters. He is only too aware that their brand is toxic and that it urgently needs to be totally separated from the Royal Family,\u201d he claimed to the Daily Mail.<\/em> \u201cThis may well, when he ascends the throne, extend to preventing them from using their titles.\u201d<\/p>\n Prince William is carving out a leaner royal family, but there might be some hurt feelings along the way.<\/p>\n More on the royal family:<\/strong><\/p>\n Before you go, click here<\/a> to see more photos of Prince William & Kate Middleton through the years.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n <\/a><\/figure>\n Best of SheKnows<\/strong><\/p>\n Sign up for SheKnows’ Newsletter<\/a>.
