\n\tKate Middleton<\/a> and Prince William\u2019s yacht vacation to Greece<\/a> was surrounded in mystery, but that seems to be exactly the way they wanted it.<\/p>\n

\n\tTheir three kids, Prince George, 12, Princess Charlotte, 10, and Prince Louis, 7, wanted an \u201cadventure\u201d<\/a> this summer, but Kate is still laying low after her cancer battle in 2024. That\u2019s why they chose the ultra-private yacht holiday off the island of Kefalonia, according to Us Weekly.<\/a><\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cIt was just what Kate needed \u2014 a family-focused trip to help her recovery and emotional well-being,\u201d a palace insider told the media outlet. \u201cWilliam just wants her to be happy and rested. It was a great way to achieve that and have everyone together.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tThere has been much discussion about the Princess of Wales scaling back her royal duties to prioritize her health and family life. The source confirmed that notion and emphasized that she would rather be with her children than \u201cin a ballgown.\u201d Her schedule is also handled on a day-to-day basis because \u201cshe\u2019s focused on her recovery.\u201d This part-time royal situation<\/a> is understandable for Kate, given her health battle, but it\u2019s not working as well for William.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe Daily Mail<\/a> has been actively criticizing the Prince of Wales\u2019 decision to move their family to a more remote \u201cforever home\u201d in Windsor at Forest Lodge. The U.K. publication noted that William \u201chiding away in Forest Lodge on the Windsor estate could result in an even greater collapse of support among his subjects.\u201d It\u2019s another level of criticism lodged at him for not having a stronger work ethic.<\/a><\/p>\n

\n\tIt was understandable for William to step away during Kate\u2019s medical crisis, but now, his critics expect him to step up. Still, the Prince of Wales has been vocal about his future ambitions when he\u2019s on the throne, and they involve fewer royal patronages.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cYou have to remain focused; if you spread yourself too thin, you just can\u2019t manage it and you won\u2019t deliver the impact or the change that you really want to happen,\u201d he told the print media in November 2023 during his Singapore tour, via Roya Nikkhah, Royal Editor of The Sunday Times on X.<\/a><\/p>\n

\n\tBut the philanthropy community did not care for his plans. \u201cThese comments will be very concerning to a lot of charities that have relied on their royal patrons for generations. It is almost impossible to raise any serious amount of money in Britain without a royal patron,\u201d said a source to The Daily Beast.<\/a><\/p>\n

\n\tKate and William\u2019s decision to put family first may come at a cost to the throne, and that\u2019s why the anti-monarchists have something to say about every royal appearance and even their family vacation.<\/p>\n
