Princess Charlotte’s painful ‘Granny Diana’ Mother’s Day words about Prince William

It’s safe to assume that Prince William and Kate Middleton are – just like the rest of the Royal Family – currently busy preparing for King Charles and Camilla’s coronation. When the couple follow the procession to Westminster Abbey, their three children, Prince George, Prince Charlotte, and Prince Louis will be there with them.

While George will likely get a more significant role at the coronation, Charlotte and Louis can be expected to be relegated to the background given their ages. That said, the coronation could mark a historical moment for Charlotte as she might wear a crown of sorts for the first time – which would actually go against royal protocol.

Though their royal duties are a serious undertaking, William, Kate, and their children are all loving people, never afraid to have some fun. Neither they are afraid to show off their more sensitive, human sides.

Indeed, perhaps this was never better evidenced than the way Charlotte and her siblings once remembered to honor their late grandmother, Princess Diana, on Mother’s Day …

King Charles‘ coronation is less than two months away. It will take place on May 6, and the it will be celebrated nationwide by the British public.

The royals will travel in procession to Westminster Abbey, where a traditional service, including an anointment with holy oil, will be performed. And it’s not only the adult royals set to be involved in the coronation, but also the royal children.

Charles and Camilla, the Queen Consort, won’t be traveling alone to the Abbey – where countless royal marriages, services, coronations, and funerals have taken place over the years.

That specific part of the coronation is for senior members of the Royal Family only, meaning that even if they are in the UK for the occasion, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle will not be involved.

Prince George, Princess Charlotte & Prince Louis – coronation

That same goes for other non-working royals, including Andrew, the Duke of York, and his children, Princess Eugenie and Princess Beatrice.

Besides the debate and many reports about Harry and Meghan’s “be or not to be” showing at the coronation, another hotly talked about topic has been the potential involvement of Prince William’s eldest son, Prince George. Reports have suggested that he might take on a more significant role at the coronation, alongside Camilla’s grandchildren, who look set to perform one of the most honorable tasks of the whole day.

According to leaked documents in The Times, the Prince and Princess of Wales – Prince William and Kate Middleton – will take part in the procession alongside their three children, Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis.

Alongside them will be Princess Anne and her husband, Vice Admiral Sir. Tim Laurence, the new Duke and Duchess of Edinburgh (Prince Edward and his wife Sophie), the Duke and Duchess of Gloucester (Prince Richard and his wife Birgitte), as well as the Duke of Kent (Prince Edward) and his wife, Princess Alexander.

In total, there will be 15 senior royals included in the procession, including King Charles and Camilla.

The role Prince George will play at his grandfather’s coronation has sparked a “bit of an argument”. His parents worry about the pressure on the young royal, an expert has claimed.

According to the leaked plans for the coronation rehearsal, Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis are all expected to be seen by the public during the coronation, as well as on the Buckingham Palace balcony.

William & Kate “worried” for Prince George’s role at the coronation

But while Prince George is preparing for royal life as the future king, the fact that he, at nine years of age, might have a prominent role during the coronation has sparked an argument between his parents, William and Kate.

According to royal commentator and author Tom Quinn, William and Kate are worried that the pressure might be too much for the young prince.

“I’ve heard from my contacts that there is a bit of an argument going on about whether George should play a more formal role,” he told Express. “I’ve heard that Kate and William are worried that it will be too much for him.”

Reports have long suggested that William and Kate have done their best to give their children a normal childhood. Of course, given the fact that Prince George will be king one day, they also have to begin preparing him for the job.

It’s believed that William and Kate are slowly letting him know what the future will hold. Reports suggest that George – like his father – will likely begin working full-time as a royal by age 35, if not sooner. For a future king, it’s crucial to be ready.

According to royal historian Robert Lacey, William and Kate have already told George what the future has in store for him.

“William has not revealed to the world how and when he broke the big news to his son,” Lacey wrote in his book, Battle of Brothers.

“But sometime around the boy’s seventh birthday in the summer of 2020, it is thought that his parents went into more detail about what the little prince’s life of future royal ‘service and duty’ would particularly involve.”

Princess Charlotte might have to work to make a living in the future, expert claims

According to Tom Quinn, it’s not only the fact that Prince George might be too young that worries them about the coronation. They’re also concerned with what has happened to royals in the past, including what William and Harry had to experience after the passing of their mother, Princess Diana.

“It’s almost an echo of the way William and Harry were sometimes made to attend formal occasions that they shouldn’t have been made to attend – most famously, the funeral of their mother and walking behind her coffin at their age,” he told the Express.

In the public’s eye, Prince George is not the only royal child that has become very popular. Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis also have gotten their fair share of public exposure – even if it hasn’t always been positive. In Harry’s memoir, Spare, the Duke claimed that he feared for their future and the fact that they might end up like him… a spare.
