The royal family has it all: fame, power, glamour, and endless wealth.
For the members of the firm, the last few years have been a doozy.
Then came the public fall-out with Prince Harry and his scathing tell-all book, “Spare.”
The short answer is a lot.
Here’s what to expect when William becomes king.
It will likely be a sad time for the monarch and Britain.
This is a slim possibility, but a possibility nonetheless.
In Prince William’s case, he has a plethora of regal monikers to choose from.
Royal expert Robert Hardman elaborated on this possibility in his book, “The Making of a King.”
For starters, she’ll ditch the title of princess and be upgraded to queen.
Similarly to her stepmother-in-law, Queen Camilla, the title of Queen Consort will go to Catherine.
For starters, the title would have to be formally given to her by her father.
Additionally, Charlotte can only receive the title after the current Princess Royal, Princess Anne, has died.
If Charlotte marries, she will be eligible to become a duchess.
It’s no wonder that, historically, the royal family has spared no expense on this sacred tradition.
Plus, the ceremony wrapped up after about an hour, considerably down from previous times.
According to royal historian Kelly Swaby, this trend will likely continue as coronations become less relevant over time.
So gradually if we do keep having them, they’ll just get smaller and smaller every time."
In fact, the monarch doesn’t need a passport to travel to other countries.
Still, it’s one less thing for the future king to worry about.
In the British tradition, the so-calledcrown jewelsbelong to the monarch and the monarch only.
Yes, all of them.
Specifically, King Charles III is the head of state and is to remain politically neutral.
The king doesn’t vote and isn’t elected into any sort of office, either.
So, then, will be Prince William when he becomes king.
But, as it stands, this important royal duty is only executed under certain circumstances.
That’s just one more way in which his life will be different after his coronation.
Since emigrating to California with his wife Meghan Markle, Harry seems quite content removed from royal duties.
In fact, ever since Queen Victoria’s reign, the British monarchs have all lived in Buckingham Palace.
But obviously, Prince William doesn’t really have to worry about that.
According toCelebrity Net Worth, as of April 2024, William is worth an estimated $100 million.
Specifically, William won’t have to bow to anyone anymore when he becomes king.
After that, there will be no more of it.
These rules also apply to meeting monarchs from other countries.
Even during turmoil and public scrutiny, the royals looked to Elizabeth for guidance, and she always delivered.
By the end of her 70-year reign, Elizabeth was an iconic symbol of British pride.
According to a poll byStatista, the queen enjoyed an 81% approval rating before she died in 2022.
But the good news is that William seems to be on track for a successful reign.
Thepollalso showed that William’s father, King Charles III, had a 66% approval rating.
If those numbers hold, William could go down in history as a more popular sovereign than Charles.
