Prince William Could Hand Over This Royal Role Beloved by Queen Elizabeth to "Glamorous" Cousin When He's King

It's only natural that shifts will occur when there's a new monarch, and just as King Charles did when he took the throne, Prince William is set to make some changes when he becomes King one day.

The King took the reins—quite literally—of his mother's horse royal racing dynasty when she died, but unlike Queen Elizabeth and King Charles, Prince William isn't one for equestrian pursuits. Rumors have swirled that the Prince of Wales is considering putting Tindall—a lifelong equestrian and Olympic rider—in charge when he becomes King.
