Report claims Kate Middleton has voiced doubts about future role as Queen
Kate Middleton has reportedly expressed private doubts about her ability to one day take on the role of Queen, according to a new report about the Princess of Wales’ state of mind as she balances public duty and family life.
A source described as close to the royal family said the Princess of Wales has “expressed doubts about her ability to become queen”, as questions about the future of the monarchy continue during King Charles III’s reign, Paris Select Book reported.
The article says the remarks were made within a very restricted circle, while also stressing that Kate continues to carry out her responsibilities with the professionalism she is known for, despite increased expectations and scrutiny around her appearances.
The reported comments come as royal watchers continue to assess the pressures on the Princess of Wales, including claims that she has been concerned about comparisons to Princess Diana as her public profile grows alongside Prince William’s role as heir.
The report adds that Prince William remains a key source of support, and suggests the Princess’s candid reflections underline the personal weight attached to becoming Queen consort at a time when the royal family’s future direction is under constant focus.
