SAD NEWS! Prince William in Tears As Family Announces The DEATH of Royal Just 1 Minute Ago

In heartbreaking news today, Princess Diana’s brother-in-law and also the uncle of Prince Harry and Prince William, Lord Robert Fellowes, has died at the age of 82. Jane, an older sister of the late Princess Diana, had been married to him for more than 40 years, and they had three children—Laura, Alexander, and Eleanor—who are all cousins of the two royal brothers. Laura is also a godmother to Princess Charlotte.

The British courtier, who was Queen Elizabeth II’s private secretary, was the late monarch’s most important adviser between 1990 and 1999 during the divorces of three of her children and Princess Diana’s death. He was part of her small, trusted group of advisers who guided the royal family during that turbulent time. His obituary noted that he helped write the speech Elizabeth II gave to the nation from Buckingham Palace on the eve of Diana’s funeral.

His role as a palace courtier meant that he often had a strained relationship with his sister-in-law. Lord Fellowes is understood to have died of undisclosed causes on July 29, 2024.

Prince William and his brother have had somewhat of a strained relationship over the past few years, sparked by Prince Harry’s decision to step down as a senior working royal in 2020. Their relationship has remained under pressure ever since. Even now, it’s been reported that Harry’s calls to King Charles go unanswered.

The Duke had reportedly tried to reach out to Charles for help because he is extremely concerned for the safety of his wife and children when the family returns to the UK later this year.

There are growing health concerns and a need for an increased number of active royal family members. The unfortunate incident involving Princess Anne—one of the most influential members of the royal household—has highlighted weaknesses in the current system.

While royal enthusiasts were delighted to see Princess Catherine returning to public engagements when she attended the Wimbledon men’s final alongside her daughter, Princess Charlotte, and her sister, Pippa Middleton, her outing reportedly prompted Prince Harry to reach out to his sister-in-law. He allegedly wrote a personal note in hopes of repairing their relationship.

In addition to other health concerns among prominent members of the royal household, the need for a more extensive group of active royals has become apparent. The media often scrutinizes King Charles’s public appearances, forcing him to refute reports about his and Princess Catherine’s well-being. This has led to increased speculation about his marriage and public pressure, compelling Prince William to take on a more prominent role.

Princess Catherine’s involvement in recent royal events has been necessary despite her ongoing treatment. The suggestion of establishing a new approach to royal duties has been raised.

Prince William and Princess Catherine have suggested the idea of providing training to new members in order to prepare them for their roles as working royals. This is seen as a way to address the challenges facing the monarchy.

In a significant shift in approach, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis may not become working royals as part of radical plans to modernize the British monarchy. This potential change reflects a broader strategy aimed at streamlining royal responsibilities and adapting the institution to contemporary societal expectations.

As the second and third children of the heir to the throne, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis are in a unique position. While their elder brother, Prince George, is likely to have a prominent role in the future of the monarchy, Charlotte and Louis may be given the opportunity to choose careers that reflect their personal interests and talents, rather than being obligated to fulfill royal duties.

A source added: “He and Catherine adore their children, and their whole lives revolve around them. I think they want to find a practical solution to the ‘spare’ problem that has plagued the family for generations.”

The concept of royals pursuing independent careers is not entirely new. Several members of the extended royal family, such as Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie, have successfully balanced professional careers with their royal heritage. Encouraging Charlotte and Louis to follow a similar path would build on this precedent, allowing them to contribute to society in meaningful ways while maintaining their royal connections.
