One Royal Family Member Keeps Prince William in Check and Tells Him When He’s Being ‘Pompous’ (It’s Not King Charles or Kate)

<p id=”par-1_37″>As he prepares for his future to one day become Britain’s monarch, it’s been said that <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/news/former-royal-employee-says-prince-william-changed-completely-since-married-kate-will-different-kind-monarch.html/” target=”_blank” rel=”noreferrer noopener”>Prince William</a> and <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/news/king-charles-says-wont-see-a-long-distant-future-following-cancer-battle.html/” target=”_blank” rel=”noreferrer noopener”>King Charles</a> do not have the same views on certain things and therefore, William will run things differently.</p>

<p id=”par-2_52″>There have been reports that the monarch and heir apparent are not on the same page when it comes to certain family members. The Prince of Wales was reportedly the one who finally pushed for Andrew’s prince title to be stripped and for the disgraced royal to be evicted from Royal Lodge.</p>

<p id=”par-3_44″>The men also see things differently when it comes to Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/news/biggest-reason-prince-harry-meghans-american-dream-failed-moment-duke-realized-uk-could-work.html/”>move back to the U.K.</a> as King Charles is reportedly looking forward to spending more time with the Sussexes, William is being cautious because he doesn’t trust them. </p>

<p id=”par-4_46″>William has a hardline stance on few other subjects and because of that, most members of the family aren’t comfortable having difficult conersations with him. But someone who has never shied away from telling the prince exactly what they think is his cousin, Zara Tindall. </p>

<p id=”par-5_59″>According to royal author Robert Jobson, Zara has a unique relationship with William that their other cousins don’t share and she has never been afraid to let William know when his ego gets a bit too big. Zara can tell the prince if he’s being “pompous.” She doesn’t hold back. And [William] will take it coming from her.</p>

<p id=”par-6_63″> “Zara and William are 18 months apart. Same Scottish summers, same Norfolk Christmases, same wet afternoons when the adults were elsewhere and the cousins were left to it,” Jobson wrote in the <a href=”https://www.express.co.uk/news/royal/2235144/royal-not-afraid-prince-william-pompous” target=”_blank” rel=”noreferrer noopener”>Daily Mail</a>. “She knew him before he was a headline. She was there in 1997, watching a boy she had grown up with become public property inside a week. </p>

<p id=”par-7_34″>“Very few people alive can say that. [Zara] does not work for him. So she can tell the heir to the throne he is being pompous, and does. He takes it. She has no angle.”</p>

<p id=”par-8_60″>The author added that it’s not just William though. Zara uses her same down-to-earth treatment with the Princess of Wales (<a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/news/dont-be-fooled-this-is-what-kate-middleton-was-really-like-in-school.html/”>formerly known as Kate Middleton</a>) too, explaining that, “She did the same for Catherine, who married in from outside the tent and found waiting there a woman who had spent her whole life declining to be impressed by the tent.”</p>
