The Royal Family is undergoing change as the reign of King Charles III comes to an end, leaving uncertainty over Prince William's future responsibilities. The nation was relieved when his wife appeared at Trooping the Colour despite health concerns, with Princess Catherine struggling to maintain a flawless appearance. Details have emerged of the Royal Family feeling incomplete without Catherine.

Catherine, who embodies both duty and elegance, is reminiscent of Princess Diana. There are considerable questions about the couple, especially as they work fewer days than other royals. Despite this, their roles are important. William is now in charge of various matters, carefully assessing spending. He recently terminated the role of Annabelle Elliot, the Queen's younger sister Camilla, highlighting the tension between him and his stepmother's family.

William has previously kept his distance from the Parker Bowles family and is not close to Camilla's children. William and Camilla's relationship is influenced by Princess Diana's legacy, as Diana saw Camilla as an interloper in her marriage. Given William's cold attitude towards the Parker Bowles, the decision to let Annabelle go is not surprising.

While some might think this would upset King Charles, sources say he has more pressing concerns. Annabelle, now 75 and busy as the Queen's companion, will not receive any further compensation after March 2024, but the decision reflects William's increased scrutiny rather than her performance.

Critics have noted that favoritism continues, as William has appointed a close friend, William Van Cutsem, to a senior position. In 2023, Prince William's income will be around $130 million, while his brother Harry will receive $8.5 million from a trust fund left by their great-grandmother. However, William remains skeptical of Harry and Meghan, feeling uncomfortable about Harry benefiting from their inheritance.
