In the halls of Buckingham Palace, whispers of discontent are growing as Prince William and Princess Kate have reportedly made a decision that could leave King Charles III feeling unsettled. The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, now the Prince and Princess of Wales, may be on the brink of altering a deeply rooted royal tradition—one that King Charles himself had upheld during his tenure as Prince of Wales.
As the couple steps into their roles as future King and Queen, they face increasing pressure to build a closer bond with the people of Wales. This sentiment is echoed by royal expert Gareth Russell, who has urged them to “have a home in their principality,” much like Charles did during his time in the role, reported the British news channel GB News. Russell’s call to action highlights a concern that has long plagued the titles of Prince and Princess of Wales: a perceived lack of connection to the land and its people.
“What has been a frequent criticism of Wales’s place in the Union for many years,” Russell explained, “is that the titles of Prince and Princess of Wales are used for the heir to the throne, but it doesn’t traditionally have many ties to Wales, much less time spent there.” He went on to commend King Charles for his efforts to challenge this tradition, stating that it would be “a shame and a mistake” if William and Kate were to abandon this legacy, as pert the report by GB News.
The stakes are high, as the couple’s approach could significantly influence their future roles within the monarchy. While they are known for their desire to modernize and adapt to the changing times, the question remains: will they risk distancing themselves from the Welsh people by breaking from tradition, or will they follow in the footsteps of King Charles and solidify their ties to the principality?
