London, March 21, 2021 – The principe William does not feel at all “trapped” in the system of British monarchy and the suggestions of brother Harry they are far from “hitting the mark”. To say it is a source close to the British royal family, according to the Sunday Times in a long article that seems to reflect the moods of the Windsor house. The source – presented as “a friend” of the eldest son of Charles and Lady Diana, but also close to Harry – he reports that the Duke of Cambridge has “accepted” his role and “the path laid out for him”. William “is definitely the grandson of his grandmother as regards the sense of duty and service “, the source emphasizes.
The article, published on the eve of 10th wedding anniversary with Kate Middleton, seems a clear response to the broadsides launched by Harry and his wife Meghan Markle with the now famous interview with Oprah Winfrey.

Also this time to report it is a source of the palace, according to which the proposal has “the full support” of the royal family and was evaluated even before the interview, which will in any case be taken into account. “It is something that is being considered, but it is too early to be announced,” the source explained. The commitment to greater sensitivity of the royal family to diversity will also include the issues of disability and Lbgt.
