Article summary
Facing this new year with a renewed spirit, the Prince of Wales brings with him a wealth of experiences.
However, the decade of the forties has not been easy for him or the rest of the British Royal Family.
Last year, Prince William had to face the heartbreaking historical event of the death of Queen Elizabeth II.
After mourning the loss of his grandmother, the British royals found themselves in a precipitous decline.
Kate Middleton’s husband went from second in line to become first in less than a year.
The death of Elizabeth II brought the young royal closer to the throne of England, currently occupied by his father, Charles III.
Throughout his life, William has diligently prepared himself for this task.
William is well-liked by the people and, according to recent polls conducted throughout the Commonwealth, has received higher ratings than Kate Middleton.
This fact is remarkable, as normally the Princess of Wales tends to have a stronger following than her husband.
The monarchy and its continuity rest on the marriage of William and Kate.
Both are aware that their lives are scrutinized and judged mercilessly, both by the media and by the rest of the public. Therefore, they strive to maintain an exemplary appearance.
Prince William and Kate divorce rumors
Rumors have recently surfaced about the alleged troubled marriage between Prince William and Princess Kate, with accusations of abuse and infidelity on the part of the Prince of Wales.
Months ago, reports circulated suggesting that Prince William had been unfaithful to his wife with Rose Hanbury, a former friend, and model.
This rumor about the alleged relationship between William and Hanbury comes from 2018 when Kate Middleton was pregnant with her third child and supposedly her husband, would have had an affair with the young Rose who was a friend of Middleton.
However, these claims were based on hearsay and have not been corroborated by any concrete evidence.
The only proof of the alleged infidelity is some photos in which William is seen very close to a woman who is not his wife.
Prince William has been described as a violent man and some royal experts are those who have exposed the alleged hostile attitude of William.
- Books such as “Our King: Charles III: The Man and the Monarch Revealed” by Robert Jobson, describes Prince William as belligerent.
- William’s volatile temper was also chronicled in the book “Spare,” Prince Harry’s memoir, where he recounted a physical altercation that occurred in 2019.
- The bad temper of the heir is also stated by Robert Lacey, author of the book “Battle of Brothers”.
However, despite all the speculation, the couple’s recent appearances at public events say otherwise.
Proof of this is the recent photos of Kate Middleton looking at Prince William during The Order Of The Garter. Those snapshots went viral on social networks and even several experts revealed what’s behind those looks.
According to experts in non-verbal communication, Kate’s smile is what is known as a Duchenne smile. It is a natural smile that betrays true happiness, responding to a spontaneous and genuine emotion.
Prince William as a father
The prince does not hesitate to fulfill his role as an active member of the crown, but he also takes care to be an attentive father in a large family.
At family events, he shows his affection for his children, as does Kate Middleton, and takes pride in them both in his inner circle and on social media.
The Prince and Princess of Wales have shifted the focus of their children’s education compared to their own upbringing, reflecting their desire to protect their privacy and maintain a “normal” life.
They do not tolerate one of their children receiving more attention than the others and strive to ensure that all three feel equally loved and respected.
