King Charles has reportedly begun preparing Prince William to take over the throne, following a realization that his time is limited due to his ongoing battle with cancer. While the monarch had previously been reluctant to abdicate, sources now claim he is shifting his focus to ensuring William is ready to lead the monarchy.
A royal insider told Radar Online that Charles has been deeply affected by his health struggles and has decided to prioritize his son’s readiness to rule. “The king realizes his time on Earth is limited,” the insider shared. “He is now focusing on making his peace with God and ensuring that William is prepared to take over when he is gone.”
The source revealed that the monarch has sought solace in religion as he faces the physical and emotional toll of his illness. Charles was reportedly seen in an “emotional” state during a recent conversation with a Church of England elder, with witnesses describing him as visibly distressed.
As part of his preparations, Charles has expressed relief and confidence in William and Kate Middleton’s ability to uphold the monarchy. “He says the monarchy is now in good health and in safe hands for another generation,” the insider added.
The king is also said to be overjoyed at Kate’s recovery from cancer, both on a personal level and for the future stability of the royal family. Charles reportedly feels reassured knowing the couple will guide the monarchy into the future, solidifying his decision to pass on leadership to his eldest son.
These developments mark a significant shift in the royal family’s dynamics, as Charles focuses on ensuring a smooth transition and the continued strength of the institution.
