Prince William is considered the key decision-maker in how the royal family deals with ongoing tensions with Prince Harry, a new report claims.
Ahead of the upcoming Invictus Games milestone event in Birmingham, a royal expert claimed it is up to the Prince of Wales whether King Charles will attend the event.
According to royal biographer Tom Bower, William’s influence could prove decisive in whether future kings will reportedly focus on maintaining stability.
Bower was asked, “So you don’t think there’s a chance that King Charles will just drop by for five minutes, say hello, smile for the cameras, shake his son’s hand and then jump back into the Rolls-Royce?”
To which he replied, “I don’t know. Not even. Not least because of what we’ve discussed, but also because I think William would say no to it.”
He added: “I think William’s role in all this is quite important, and he wants a smooth transition. He wants to change the monarchy. Obviously. He wants to modernize it. He needs to appeal to young people and all that stuff.
“He doesn’t want to get involved in more controversy, especially to benefit Harry and Meghan.”
