Prince William<\/a><\/strong> has reportedly decided to hand over Royal Ascot duties to his cousin Zara Tindall once he becomes King.<\/p>\n The report claims Zara\u2019s lifelong involvement in equestrian sport could make her a natural choice to oversee the family\u2019s racing interests under William\u2019s future reign.<\/p>\n A source close to the prince confirms that while \u201che understands how important Ascot is,\u201d not only to the racing community but to the UK, the future King is unlikely to be involved in the event in the future.<\/p>\n Citing an earlier report by The Times<\/a>, the Mirror noted that a royal source said, \u201cI never get the feeling the whole top hat and racing is really his thing, and he\u2019s said as much. He\u2019s never really seemed comfortable doing it.\u201d<\/p>\n The report claims the Prince of Wales is less passionate about horse racing than his father, King Charles III, and his late grandmother, Queen Elizabeth II, both of whom have maintained close ties to the sport. On the other hand, cousin Tindall, an accomplished equestrian and Olympic silver medallist, may be the perfect fit for the role.<\/p>\n According to the Mirror<\/a>, the prince has \u201cnever felt comfortable with\u201d the royal racing duties and is hoping to hand over Royal Ascot responsibilities to someone who clearly enjoys the role. Despite his reluctance, the prince appeared at the recently concluded event to honour the family tradition. He attended the second day of the race last week, where he participated in the carriage procession alongside his wife, Princess Catherine, who was returning to the event for the first time since 2023.<\/p>\n The report follows this year\u2019s Royal Ascot, the annual five-day racing festival long associated with the royal family\u2019s passion for horse racing.<\/p>\n TELL US \u2013 DO YOU ENJOY THE ROYAL ASCOT EVENT?<\/strong><\/p>\n The post \u2018King\u2019 Prince William Could Hand Over Key Royal Role to Family Member \u2014 Report<\/a> appeared first on Reality Tea<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n \u2018 The preceding article may include information circulated by third parties \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n \u2018 Some details of this article were extracted from the following source www.yahoo.com \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Prince William has reportedly decided to hand over Royal Ascot duties to his cousin Zara Tindall once he becomes King.
