King Charles has taken the final step to safeguard Prince William from a major future trouble.
Amid chaos in the British Royal Family over Prince Andrew’s disgracing controversies, which keep reigniting from time to time, the British King finally carried out a “final act” to separate his younger brother from the institution, making the Prince of Wales’s path easier after he takes over the throne.
Last week, the former Duke of York released an official statement, announcing that he, after discussions with King Charles and his family, surrendered his royal titles as his scandals tarnished the image of monarchy.
However, behind the scenes, it was the cancer-stricken monarch who forced Andrew to give up the titles, revealed palace insiders.
Speaking to Radar Online, a new source has shared that making Andrew surrender his titles was King Charles’s “final act” to save Prince William from the chaos which could lead him to make tough choices he became the monarch.
"Charles saw this as his way of protecting the institution – and his son. He didn't want William inheriting a situation where his uncle still held titles or ceremonial honors. This was the King's final act of housekeeping before the next reign begins,” told the tipster.
They continued, "William's been very clear that he views Andrew as a liability to the monarchy's reputation. If the King hadn't stepped in, William was fully prepared to handle it himself.”
Another source stated, “The King saw the storm approaching. There was a clear feeling they had to act fast and take control of the story. It was the King's way of putting an end to a long and difficult chapter.”
"He's aware his time is limited and wanted to spare William the burden of sorting it out. In many ways, this was Charles' last gift to his son – and quite possibly his final act of service,” the insider further added.
Prince William is King Charles’s elder son and heir apparent to the British throne.
