Prince William Redefines Monarchy, Trims 'Royal Fat' For Less Drama: Source
Prince William has "a lot of fresh ideas" for the British Monarchy. While he is yet to become the institution's ultimate head, he is already deemed "determined" as he prepares himself to "shake things up" within the Royal Firm.
An insider spoke with Us Weekly for its February 28 issue, and talked about how the Duke of Cambridge is working to "redefine" the monarchy. As stated, he is intending to "trim the royal fat" away because, for him, "[fewer] people means less drama."
The same source did not share, however, how exactly the future King would do this. But, a different informant noted he is not afraid to speak up even if it may result in butting heads with other members of the British Royal Family.
To maintain the tone of the narrative, the second insider referenced the recurring issues surrounding Prince Andrew. As explained, Prince William has "clashed" with his uncle over the years as he has found the sexual abuse scandal "disturbing."
The Duke of Cambridge is, then, said to be "mild-mannered at heart." However, when something bothers him, he would not remain silent even if this meant disputes and tensions.
As to whether the claims are legitimate, no one knows for sure. The sources failed to provide any evidence to support the assertions.
It is, also, worth noting that the royal-born Prince himself has yet to confirm any part of the story. Unless he breaks his silence to either acknowledge or deny the statements, this will remain groundless speculations about him and his role in the British Monarchy.
Despite the lack of confirmations and evidence, though, an unnamed friend of Prince William was alleged to have revealed a few things about him and his views on Prince Andrew to the Times earlier in October. Insider released a report on the matter, noting that the original narrative emerged in the newspaper amid the controversies surrounding the Duke of York.
As reported, the source claimed that the Duke of Cambridge is "no fan" of the Queen's second son. The "ungracious and ungrateful" attitude of the latter is a "sticking point" for the former.
With these thoughts at hand, the future King allegedly sees his uncles as a "risk" and "threat" to the British Royal Family.
Meanwhile, in terms of redefining the British Monarchy, a royal commentator believes that Prince William, as well as Prince Charles, is, indeed, doing it in a "slow manner," according to Express UK. The former royal editor of The Sun, Charlie Rae, made the assertions to GB News, adding that it is "probably quite healthy" moving forward.
