According to royal expert Angela Levin, Prince William could break a royal tradition by giving his son, Prince George, next in line to the throne these freedoms, with opportunities that other monarchs have not had throughout the history of the British monarchy.
Speaking to GB News, Levin revealed that the Prince of Wales will give his son the opportunity to choose whether he wants to go into the national army or not: “This is very interesting because Prince William doesn’t necessarily want George to do that” and added, “He doesn’t feel it’s necessary“.
By historical tradition, all monarchs have trained in the army, which is why Levin says, “It’s such a stamp on the Royal Family. They’re the head of the army, so what would they do without that? I find it very difficult“. However, this could be just one of many changes William will make during his reign.
Levin also noted the future monarch’s lack of interest in religion: “He’s not religious. He does go once or twice a year“, claiming that “He doesn’t have the same passion that Charles does. I think it could be a very changed Royal Family“.
