A royal expert claims the Prince and Princess of Wales will strive to normalize the lives of their younger children, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis, ensuring they feel they have options beyond working as royals. While Princess Charlotte is expected to follow a path similar to Princess Anne, there are concerns about Prince Louis potentially becoming a 'royal hanger-on' like the Duke of York. The couple aims to empower their children with freedom, encouraging them to pursue careers and lives meaningful to them.
The ‘spare to the heir’ is a well-known royal phrase. It means that any child born after their sibling - the heir - is a second to them or seen as a spare part if something should happen. While there have been many famous spares throughout history including the late Queen's father, King George VI, and her sister, Princess Margaret, the word is now largely tied to Prince Harry's controversial memoir, Spare.
The two youngest Waleses will one day take on senior roles within the family and likely gain important titles, but it has been suggested that the Prince and Princess of Wales want their children to have more freedom. “They have already shown that they have a different and modern attitude to bringing up royal children and I’m sure they will do everything to make Charlotte and Louis feel every bit as special, loved and valued as George."
In terms of Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis's future roles within the Royal Family, it is thought that their lives as spares to the throne will be slightly different from previous generations.
