King Charles could be set to break tradition and hand the Princess of Wales an "unprecedented" vital royal role to assist him with official business.
Royal sources have suggested that Kate along with Princess Anne and Prince Edward could be brought into the fold to act as Counsellors of State. It comes as the monarch for the first time will expand his pool of advisors to five, in a break from royal tradition, and give them the authority to assist him should he be out of the country or become unwell. Until the late Queen's passing, the positions were held by the then Prince Charles, Prince William, Prince Andrew and Prince Harry, chosen because they were the four next in line to the throne and are at least over the age of 18.
