Carole And Michael Middleton To Play A More Prominent Role In The Monarchy

Royal Family News says that even though they’ve been keeping under the radar these last several years, it seems like Kate Middleton’s parents, Carole and Michael Middleton, will be playing a more prominent role in the monarchy now that she’s one step closer to becoming the queen of England. Here’s what you need to know.

Carole And Michael Middleton To Play A More Prominent Role In The Monarchy

Royal columnist Richard Kay recently wrote in the Daily Mail that we will definitely be seeing more of Carole Middleton and her husband Michael Middleton in the coming months ahead.

Apparently, the Middletons have always heavily influenced Prince William and now that he’s the second in line for the throne, that is not going to change.

He said, “Beyond this very visible picture of dizzying social mobility that the Middletons represent, their presence — more than perhaps anyone else’s at Saturday’s ceremony — is a very clear sign about the future direction of the monarchy.”

Kay then added, “Charles may be on the throne but by including William’s in-laws and in such a conspicuous position in the Abbey, there was a tacit acknowledgement of the role the Middletons are undoubtedly going to play. So while this was his father’s day, it was also the beginning of a new royal order.”

What’s Next For The Middletons?

What’s more, Kay also suggests that it was Kate Middleton that was very instrumental in making sure that her parents sat as close as possible to the senior members of the royal family during King Charles’ coronation.

He said, “Given that they are grandparents of the next king but one, it was understandable that Kate should want both her mother, a former flight attendant who was brought up in a council flat, and her father, a one-time aircraft despatcher, close at hand. What was surprising was the presence of her brother and sister when pressure of space meant so many more familiar names were absent from the guest list.”
