William and Kate #7

It doesn't have to be an obvious split. Just not seen on the repetitive church walk ups etc. I just sense he's not fussed. I don't think he is fussed about a lot of the pomp. He looks quite embarrassed at times when he's in Garter robes for example.

It could be more of just loosening ties situation. Much like thousands of other families have around the UK.
It’s a major part of his job and if he wants to change things he needs to state the new way forward otherwise he’ll just get criticised for being lazy and slacking off.

I like that people think he has a choice or it’s his decision. Have an advisor Whisper ‘constitutional crisis’ in his shell like and watch him skip down the path. He doesn’t have to like it,he just has to do it.

He’s not like other families though. How many people do you know that have four properties just for their sole use? Plus all the rest of the extreme privilege; with that comes huge responsibility and toeing the line. Big time.

I doubt he feels strongly enough about it to leave the church. He'll just turn up for the big occasions and not think about it the rest of the time like loads of other people do.

He definitely needs to do more but I don’t know anyone personally who thinks he’s lazy especially now Kate is ill. People look at me blankly when I say he doesn’t do much and he’s not as hard working as his father

Obviously, Kate being ill, she has no staff and no care at home but poor widdle William who can't work because he has to do the cooking, cleaning, looking after the kids, the school run, the homework, and all that.

Remember William has said stuff in the past about working parents being essentially bad parents.

I highly doubt he's very involved with the household, or the kids.

Apparently he's always cleaning out the guinea pigs' cage because the children forget...

Wait. What?! [I did google to try to find it but clearly googling the wrong thing]
It was when Charlotte was little, I think.

You can't work much because you can't be a good parent, or something to that effect.

The same dumb crap like Kate saying in a speech, paraphrased, she had a healthy, happy, supportive childhood so she couldn't be depressed or whatever; so we have to find ways to support families to raise happy adults.

Except they both didn't say that. Especially since her own brother has mental health issues (depression). They had the same childhood. Catherine herself went to therapy sessions with him. Read their speeches yourselves instead of repeating anti tweets. 😂 🤣

The pomp and ceremony of the royal family is a huge soft power benefit for the U.K. I think. Look at the reception Queen Elizabeth’s funeral received, and how much visiting dignitaries love the state dinners here. If William/the RF wants to hold onto its position I’d argue that reducing formality and cutting out ceremony isn’t necessarily the way to go. We’re one of the few Western countries with a globally recognised Royal Family, and going low key will surely detract from that.
I’m not a monarchist but have attended one state dinner and the experience was very spectacular and glamorous and the sense of history from some of the (quite mad!) traditions that took place was very special.

They both said that, but obviously I just read Sussex squad tweets, or something that were circa 2015 and 2016 🤣 I really clearly remember friends and I discussing this way back when and they were definitely said. We read and listened to the speeches. That’s why I think Kate’s previous forays into child mental health is quite dangerous because it’s all just stripped down to nonsense platitudes.
