William and Catherine’s royal training continues behind palace walls as King Charles undergoes treatment
As King Charles continues weekly cancer treatments, the Palace has quietly accelerated preparations for the future reign of Prince William and Catherine, prompting speculation that their ascension could come sooner than expected.
According to insiders, the Prince and Princess of Wales have been discreetly preparing for their royal destinies, with Catherine reportedly participating in a symbolic, low-profile ceremony in which she wore a crown—part of her private training to become queen.
“She’s been taking lessons in what it means to be queen and was beautifully received during a hush-hush crowning ceremony,” a source told RadarOnline.
While Buckingham Palace has clarified that the King remains actively engaged in royal duties, his ongoing treatment has not slowed internal planning for the next generation of monarchs.
This revelation follows news that a significant honour expected to be granted to the Waleses—royal warrants previously reserved for reigning monarchs—has been postponed. Though initially surprising, the delay is understood to be due to logistics rather than any change in the King’s support for their preparation.
Behind the scenes, William and Catherine continue to step further into their future roles, as royal life subtly but steadily shifts in their direction.
