Royal Expert Claims Prince William Is Closer And Scared To Take The Crown As King Charles Battles Cancer
Juggling his father’s and wife’s medical conditions, Royal expert claims Prince William is reportedly in “frightening proximity” to taking the crown and ascending the British throne. This is against his hope that he and his. Wife will have time to raise their kids for a while outside public scrutiny.
“The almost simultaneous news of Charles’s cancer has put William and Catherine in frightening proximity to ascending the throne just when they had hoped for years to parent their children out of the public eye,” journalist Tina Brown claimed in a New York Times essay published on March 25.
Prince William and his wife, Kate Middleton — who is also battling cancer — share three kids: Prince George, 10, Princess Charlotte, 8, and Prince Louis, 5. The former Vanity Fair editor-in-chief asserted that the idea of William taking the crown has spurred much stress for the couple.
“The prospect of it, I am told, is causing them intense anxiety,” she wrote. The former editor claimed that several scandals surrounding the royal family — including Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s estrangement from the royal family as well as Prince Andrew’s ties to convicted paedophile Jeffrey Epstein — have put William and Middleton “under unmanageable pressure.”
“Catherine is the most popular member of the royal family after William,” she wrote, adding, “The future of the monarchy hangs by a thread, and that thread is her.” Brown furthered that William, 41, and Middleton, 42, are burdened with more responsibilities than just her health condition and the crown included.
“A tidal wave of premature responsibility is crashing in her and William’s direction,” she said. “Frozen, unready and with Catherine now seriously unwell, the Prince and Princess of Wales await the awesome burden of the crown.” The latest report comes after Kate Middleton announced that She was diagnosed with cancer on March 22.
Initially, the royal family kept mute about the situation but after mounting speculation over her whereabouts following a planned abdominal procedure in January. She eventually caved in and disclosed her condition. However she did not disclose what kind of cancer she is battling but shared that she is seeking treatment.
“Having William by my side is a great source of comfort and reassurance too,” she said in a video message at the time. “As is the love, support and kindness that has been shown by so many of you. It means so much to us both.”
