These 4 radical measures that Prince William plans to put in place when he is king

Prince William has been preparing for his accession to the English throne for a while now. The eldest son of Charles III and heir to the British Crown thus plans his future reign. As reported The Express he would consider implementing several reforms in order to modernize the monarchy, an initiative already started by his father.

In this line, it seems that Kate Middleton's husband wishes to continue to reduce the number of active members of the royal family, which would imply a reduction in royal patronage, these associations, institutions and charitable organizations benefiting from the official support of a member of the Crown. By reducing the number of members carrying out official functions, the idea is to concentrate responsibilities on a restricted circle and reduce associated public expenditure, particularly those linked to official travel, events or ceremonies. This approach responds to frequent criticism of the cost of royalty for British taxpayers.

Break away from the Commonwealth

Furthermore, Prince Harry's brother, aged 42, would consider breaking the Crown's ties with the Commonwealth, this grouping of 56 member states, to refocus the monarchy on the United Kingdom. A decision which reflects his desire to definitively extricate himself from his country's colonial past. “William and Kate are reluctant to join the Commonwealth tour because they feel it is an outdated institution,” a source told the daily.

For greater sobriety, he also plans to simplify his coronation and the official ceremonies which will follow, in order to reduce them “to their simplest expression”. During his stay in South Africa last November, he made evocative remarks about his vision of power: “I try to do things differently and do them for my generation. And so that you understand better, I do it with a little “r” in the word “royal”. It’s more about impact philanthropy, collaboration, bringing people together and helping people. »

In this continuity, he intends to give priority to his family, especially since it has been deeply marked by health problems of his wife, Kate Middleton. The latter was diagnosed with cancer in early 2024 and is just recovering from chemotherapy. The future king aspires to offer a more human image of the Crown, which he has been doing for several years now, striving to honor his royal duties while respecting his family values. Enough to further restore the image of the Windsor clan
