Prince William has made it clear that he will not become “shadow king” and is instead determined to spend the next few years developing his military career.
It was previously reported from Daily Mail that Wills is being groomed to take on much of the Queen’s responsibilities, citing a treasury document which highlights his future role. But palace aides say that these documents are out of date and in fact prepared prior to William’s decision to be an RAF pilot in late 2008.
A spokesman for St James’s Palace told The Sunday Telegraph: “Prince William will not be a ‘shadow king’ – the possibility is not even being considered. Over the next few years, Prince William will be concentrating primarily on a military career while also slightly increasing his patronages and the other interests that he pursues.”
