As Prince William steps further into his future role as king, Princess Kate is quietly preparing to take on an even greater presence within the Royal Family.
According to GB News, a palace insider claimed that the future queen of Britain played a "supportive" role for Prince William.
It is reported that the Princess of Wales is reportedly drawing inspiration from Prince Philip, who famously embraced his role as a steadfast supporter to Queen Elizabeth II throughout her reign.
Royal biographer Penny Junor noted, "She's never trying to outshine him in any way. I think that Kate is a bit like Prince Philip supporting the Queen."
As per The Times, a source close to the couple said the mother-of-three is "hugely influential behind the scenes in hiring and decision-making, and they approach it as a team."
The source added, "Like the late Queen and Prince Philip, and the King and Queen, they're a good double act."
According to the outlet, Princess Kate would make it possible for her husband to easily balance royal duties with being a hands-on dad to their three children.
The source revealed that Kate is "acting as a gatekeeper to ensure that William can do his work while also finding time to be a hands-on father, and that everyone understands that this is the deal".
