Princess Kate is “Open” to Prince George Having “More Roles” in the Royal Family—But “Only If She Signs Off on It”

Prince George

Prince George had a major role in his grandfather King Charles’ Coronation ceremony earlier this month—one of eight Pages of Honor, a decision that apparently caused a bit of a stir amongst his parents. George will be 10 years old this summer, and as future king, his role will increase as the years go on; according to OK, his mother, the Princess of Wales, is open to her eldest son having an increasing role in the Firm, as long as she has the chance to approve what those roles entail.

“Kate and Charles are very similar in a lot of ways: Both love what the monarchy stands for, feel a deep duty to Britain and the Commonwealth, and share the late Queen Elizabeth II’s belief that royals should ‘never complain, never explain,’” a source says. “However, they’re very different when it comes to how they think the monarchy should operate in 2023.”
