King Charles\u2019 illness<\/a> has meant people have had to start thinking about a possible succession, and about how things will change once Prince William is King. William himself has been preparing for the role for years, and he and Kate Middleton<\/a> have been taking on added responsibility due to the King\u2019s illnesses. But one thing that\u2019s started being discussed more and more is how things will change once William is king.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s no secret that Prince William wants to do things differently from his father. And one of those big changes is expected to be about his uncle, Prince Andrew.<\/p>\n

\u201cPrince William has long had a strained and distant relationship with Andrew,\u201d\u00a0royal expert Hilary Fordwich\u00a0told Fox News Digital<\/a>, adding that the Prince holds \u201ca grudge against his disgraced uncle.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cAndrew\u2019s future within the royal family is beyond bleak, since Prince William is firmly opposed to any public rehabilitation with no foreseeable path back,\u201d Fordwich claimed. \u201cHe wants Andrew to vanish from public view.\u201d<\/p>\n

Prince Andrew has been in hot water for years, but it all got exponentially worse after a 2019 interview where he failed to explain his connection with Jeffrey Epstein or show empathy for his victims.<\/p>\n

\u201cWilliam\u2019s strong stance on \u2018the Andrew problem\u2019 is consistent, unwavering and his influence has been decisive in ensuring Andrew remains sidelined,\u201d said Fordwich. \u201cHe is driven by his desire\u2026 to protect the monarchy\u2019s reputation, doing all he can to safeguard its future.\u201d<\/p>\n

And that means we probably won\u2019t see more of Andrew after Prince William officially takes over. \u201c[William is] very in touch with the public,\u201d Fordwich added. \u201cEvery public opinion poll has Andrew at the bottom, reinforcing Prince William\u2019s stance. Once king, no doubt, Prince William will ensure Andrew is completely excluded from royal life, as well as all public appearances.\u201d<\/p>\n

But this doesn\u2019t extend to Princess Andrew\u2019s daughters, Princess Beatrice<\/a> and Princess Eugenie<\/a>. Instead, the two, who are not working royals, are expected to take on larger roles when Prince William becomes King.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen William ascends the throne, Beatrice and Eugenie<\/a> will be valuable assets, and I\u2019m certain they will get involved with royal duties. It makes perfect sense, because he will need them,\u201d\u00a0Ingrid Seward, royal author and editor-in-chief of Majesty Magazine, told\u00a0Hello!<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\u201cI see them as a sort of double act, working together in the same way as married couples do. Two gorgeous Princesses working together as sisters would be very powerful. I think it would be wonderful, and I think it will happen,\u201d she added.<\/p>\n

The sisters have often stepped up in an unofficial capacity, and reportedly would have no problem doing more. \u201cI think they would be open to doing more, because they like to give back,\u201d\u00a0the outlet also reported.\u00a0\u201cThey have always been close to William, and the King is very fond of them too.<\/p>\n

Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie\u2019s expanded roles could come at the expense of Prince William\u2019s brother, Prince Harry. It\u2019s been reported that William has even considered stripping Harry of his title once he becomes King. \u201cIt\u2019s no secret William wants Harry more harshly dealt with. He thinks he has betrayed the family from top to bottom, which is the ultimate Windsor crime. It wouldn\u2019t take much to provoke him to flex his muscles when he is king,\u201d a palace insider told\u00a0The Daily Beast<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Whatever happens, it seems the royals in the spotlight will look very different once Prince William is King. <\/p>\n
