As with other senior members of the British Royal Family, Prince William and Princess Kate always have plenty to do during the weeks. Indeed, their duties can also include working weekends, and the couple have traveled far from home several times.
When they welcomed their first child eight years ago though – future king Prince George – their perspective on life reportedly changed somewhat. Today, William and Kate have three children, and it seems as though the pair are endeavoring to raise them in a modern fashion, in keeping with what many believe will be a pivotal theme in the monarchy’s continued existence. That is to say modernization.
Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis are all confirmed to be attending King Charles’ coronation on May 6.
Louis, the youngest of the bunch, just celebrated his fifth birthday, and there has been speculation as to whether or not the Prince and Princess of Wales might consider the prospect of adding to their brood.
Earlier this week, Kate visited a baby bank in Maidenhead, where she spoke to staff and helped fold baby clothes. During the engagement, the Princess seemed to divulge information concerning her and William’s thoughts on a possible fourth child.

Suffice it to say that Prince William and Princess Kate have plenty on their hands. The coronation of King Charles is only weeks away, and the entire Royal Family is set to participate in the big celebration, which will include a procession to and from Westminster Abbey.
Things have reportedly been quite tumultuous in the last few months, what with the rumors surrounding Harry and Meghan’s potential participation ongoing. William and Kate’s relationship with the Sussexes is at its lowest point ever – the Princess of Wales in particular appears to have put her foot down.
Kate Middleton “prevented” Meghan from attending coronation, expert claims
Charles officially invited Harry and Meghan, but Harry is set to go it alone. Meghan, meanwhile, will remain in the US with the couple’s children, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet. But is she only staying behind because it’s the easiest thing for the Sussex family?
According to royal expert and author Tom Bower, Princess Kate had a say in the decision and didn’t “under any circumstances” want Meghan in attendance.
Meanwhile, Bower termed the fact that Harry will attend alone an “ugly compromise.”
“I think we must all be grateful that Kate, in the end, I think, prevented Meghan coming and said she wouldn’t have her there under any circumstances,” Bower said during an appearance on GB News, as reported by Express.
“I do think that for the Royal Family, Harry’s presence is constitutionally important, after all if God forbid something happensit ated to the Cambridges, and all of them died, we’d have King Harry on the throne after Charles, so he’s got to be there.”
He added: “The question is, what is role will be when he gets to London? and I think that the arguments over the last few days have been very much to minimise his presence in the Abbey.”
Moreover, the expert claimed that Kate had warned Meghan that if she attended, she’d have to “sit in the back.”
