Insight into King Charles\u2019 funeral plans for his son\u2019s revealed<\/p>\n
Buckingham Palace is reportedly in the midst of succession planning already, and a major part of it revolves around Prince William\u2019s participation in the talks, not his about his ascension. <\/p>\n
For those unversed, King Charles is currently battling an undisclosed form of cancer, which has made his funeral planning more fast paced.<\/p>\n
Now a source has spoken to Woman\u2019s Day about Prince William\u2019s thoughts related to all this. <\/p>\n
According to their findings, \u201cWilliam\u2019s more than ready to take command and has proven time and again, especially while the King was going through intensive treatments, that he\u2019s totally capable.\u201d<\/p>\n
But at the same time \u201cno one would expect Charles to step aside completely but it\u2019s certainly a conversation that\u2019s been discussed since his diagnosis.\u201d<\/p>\n
Given the circumstances \u201cit would be imprudent of them to not consider it.\u201d<\/p>\n
In terms of the details of these plans, about month ago specific details about the funeral, as well as Prince Harry, Meghan Markle, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet\u2019s roles were leaked by The Telegraph.<\/p>\n
King Charles\u2019 Leaked Funeral Plans:<\/p>\n
\u201cThe Duke and Duchess of Sussex will be invited to take part in the family vigil during the lying in state at Westminster Hall and play a prominent role alongside the most senior royals during the funeral service.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cArrangements have also been made for Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet to attend the funeral service at Westminster Abbey, as well as the committal at St George\u2019s Chapel, Windsor, should they wish.\u201d<\/p>\n
The Cover Up Attempt:<\/p>\n
Later The Daily Beast reported on a \u2018cover up\u2019 attempt made by King Charles\u2019 communication secretary Tobyn Andreas \u201chad a meltdown on the phone with the outlet. <\/p>\n
According to Cosmopolitan, \u201cThese new details about London Bridge, including that Harry and Meghan will be invited for central roles and that the mourning period will be shortened, had found their way to the Telegraph exclusively.\u201d <\/p>\n
\u201cThere was a conversation with the palace\u2019s communications team ahead of publication. Tobyn was very, very, unhappy. He was involved directly and lobbied the Telegraph for more than 24 hours to try and influence the timing and terms of publication.<\/p>\n
\u201cThere was a heated phone call. In the end, the view was taken that the paper needed to protect its editorial independence, and it decided to publish its scoop when it wanted to, which from Tobyn\u2019s point of view was premature.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Insight into King Charles\u2019 funeral plans for his son\u2019s revealed Buckingham Palace is reportedly in the midst of…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":346083,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[7708],"tags":[7709,7714,7713,533,2832,532,2831,7710,519,7711,7712],"class_list":{"0":"post-346082","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-royals","8":"tag-british-royal-family","9":"tag-catherine","10":"tag-catherine-middleton","11":"tag-kate-middleton","12":"tag-prince-of-wales","13":"tag-prince-william","14":"tag-princess-of-wales","15":"tag-royal-families","16":"tag-royal-family","17":"tag-uk-royal-family","18":"tag-william"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@uk\/115031876825877136","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/346082","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=346082"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/346082\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/346083"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=346082"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=346082"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=346082"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
