Many people close to the royal family have noted subtle indications that Princess Kate of Wales is quietly getting ready for her future role as Queen, as confirmed by insiders.
This year has been particularly challenging for Kate, as she bravely fought a battle with cancer and spoke openly about her private health journey. Now, she has returned to her royal duties and is once again in the public spotlight.
The royal family began their Christmas celebrations a bit earlier this year at their luxurious country estate. However, by choosing to do so, they decided to miss the traditional festive lunch usually held at the palace.
King Charles and other members of the royal family enjoyed quality time with extended family members during this celebration period.
Both Kate and William emphasized that their family holds the utmost importance in their lives, with their children being the focal point of their universe. They intended to celebrate earlier to enjoy the company of their family at home, while also planning to join the senior royals on Christmas Day.
The Prince of Wales mentioned that this year has been the toughest in his life.
An insider has revealed that ‘Katherine is as prepared as she can be for the position of Queen. Both she and William understand that they could be called upon at any moment to assume senior royal responsibilities.’
There are light-hearted comments from King Charles himself who often jokes about still being alive, but it’s noticeable that he appears thinner and more worn out as he ages. His eyes also have a noticeable redness, which speaks volumes about his health.
