Prince William has reportedly taken action after ex-Prince Andrew’s arrest last week. On the same day, King Charles released an official statement, mentioning that “the law must take its course.” While he insisted on supporting and cooperating with the legal procedures, the arrest has allegedly shaken public trust.
While the monarch has been actively working on the situation, William has stepped up to support his father. A source told the Mirror that the current and future king share the “willingness” to change the effect the incident had on the public. They added that William has reportedly been “focused” on helping the king in “restoring that trust with the public.”
Furthermore, the insider claimed that the Prince of Wales not only focused on the current situation but also prepared for the future. “Right now, the family and the country need stability. But there will come a time when he will bring in his own changes to ensure that accountability and purpose are front and centre of not only his role but the role of the institution,” they said.
Earlier, a report claimed that Charles and William were not aware of Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor’s arrest. As events unfolded, they learned about it, and soon, the king released a statement.
