Prince William hints his kids may not keep royal titles in a streamlined future monarchy

(Ian Gavan/Apple TV +)

Prince William is already preparing for life as king, and according to insiders, he’s not planning to maintain the status quo. The 43-year-old Prince of Wales reportedly wants to overhaul the monarchy, modernizing the institution and even slimming down the number of titles — possibly including those of his own children.

A source told Radar Online that William’s goal is to create “a monarchy fit for the modern age – less pomp, fewer outdated titles, and a stronger emphasis on purpose.” The insider described him as pragmatic and forward-thinking, adding, “He knows the monarchy can only endure if it evolves and stays meaningful to people’s lives.”
