Future king seeks support from cousins as royal duties mount
Prince William is reportedly leaning on their daughters to help shoulder royal duties following Prince Harry’s departure from the monarchy in 2020.
Royal insiders claim the Duke of Sussex’s absence has left William feeling both personally hurt and practically unsupported. “Harry left a large gap in William's world,” one source shared. “They were meant to divide and conquer during William’s reign.”
In contrast to Harry and Meghan Markle’s more relaxed and personal public image in the U.S., William’s life is increasingly focused on duty. As the Prince of Wales continues to prepare for his future as king, his recent visit to a Suffolk air base underscores his deepening role in national service.
Although William hasn’t spoken publicly about the rift, insiders suggest he’s quietly relying on other close family members to fill the void Harry left behind.
