King Charles ‘hesitant' to coach Kate Middleton for future Queen's role
‘Heartbreaking reason’ King Charles is ‘hesitant’ to prepare Kate Middleton for Queen Consort’s role.
King Charles is reportedly “hesitant” to prepare his “beloved” daughter-in-law Kate Middleton for the role of future Queen Consort.
According to royal expert Christopher Anderson, there is a “heartbreaking” reason why the monarch is reluctant to coach the Princess of Wales even though he spent most of his life getting trained for his current role as King.
As per The Sun, Anderson revealed that the reason Charles is holding back on training Kate is that he is not ready to give up the throne to his son Prince William or to see his him take his place.
He noted that Charles is determined to make his mark on the throne after waiting for his ascension for 70 years.
And so, despite being close to Kate, who has helped him with his health issues, Charles wants to focus on his time as King and make the most of it, the expert suggested.
However, Anderson clarified that it does not mean Charles does not share a deep bond with Kate, noting that the two have grown closer following their respective cancer battles.
“The King is not about to be giving Kate advice about being a future queen,” he said. “That would simply give oxygen to the notion that he might not be around much longer, and Charles III intends to stay put on the throne for years to come.”
