About this listen

 Prince William is reportedly beginning to operate with the authority of a future monarch, quietly assembling a small inner circle and managing strategy largely within his own household rather than through King Charles’s court. Sources say the Prince of Wales does not see himself as “an understudy waiting in the wings,” but is already setting priorities for his eventual reign.
We also revisit the 2012 scandal that pushed William into legal battle after topless photographs of Kate were published in France, the crucial support William says he receives from Carole and Michael Middleton, and the difficult decision looming over Prince George’s next school following a recent death at Eton.

Plus: a claim that Kate has “never been close” to Beatrice and Eugenie, and the Royal Family prepares to present a united front at next week’s Commonwealth Day service.
