Rob Shuter<\/a> that \u201cWilliam is not afraid to make hard calls. And right now, that\u2019s exactly what the Royal Family needs. Charles leads with his heart. William leads with strategy.\u201d<\/p>\nThey add that \u201cHe doesn\u2019t forget, and he doesn\u2019t forgive easily. If you cross the line, that\u2019s it.\u201d<\/p>\n
Apparently, \u201cthe monarchy is under more pressure than ever\u201d (you know, what with ex-Prince Andrew being literally arrested), and ultimately the royals need someone in charge \u201cwho can make tough, unpopular decisions.\u201d Which William has no problem doing!<\/p>\n
\u201cHe understands the stakes,\u201d the insider says. \u201cThis isn\u2019t just family\u2014it\u2019s a business. Andrew is a problem. Harry is a problem. William knows that\u2014and he acts accordingly. He\u2019s not trying to be liked. He\u2019s trying to protect the monarchy.\u201d<\/p>\n
And ultimately, Prince William holds all the cards. A source previously said that when it came to Easter, \u201cThe message was simple. If certain people are there, we won\u2019t be. You can\u2019t have a royal event without William and his family. If they don\u2019t show, the whole thing collapses.\u201d<\/p>\n
