King Charles wants Prince William, Kate Middleton ‘to take on Diana’s role

King Charles’ decision to bestow his eldest son Prince William and his wife Kate Middleton with the Prince and Princess of Wales title hints that he wants them to take over the role of William’s late mother Princess Diana, the last Princess of Wales, a royal expert has suggested.

Talking to Mirror UK, Seward weighed in on King Charles’ landmark decision to make his son the Prince of Wales, thereby making Kate the Princess of Wales, the first ever after Diana.

She said: “Charles making William and Catherine the Prince and Princess of Wales means William is taking over Diana’s mantle.”

Seward then went on to share how King Charles’ decision also highlighted something to Prince Harry and his wife Meghan Markle.

“It’s his now, and Harry doesn’t need to fight for it anymore. Their father’s words in his speech on Friday were very important. Charles wanted to make sure Harry and Meghan were mentioned. I’m not saying they suddenly think Meghan is wonderful. But I think they want peace.”

“And I hope – as do we all – that the peace lasts. Who knows if it will? But as long as they can pretend, that will help,” Seward concluded.
