According to reports, Charles was moved by Prince William’s plans for the royal inheritance he will one day receive. Prince Charles went on the record to say that he was, “reduced to tears,” after hearing the plans that his son has for the land and title Charles has held for more than 50 years.

The land in question is the Duchy of Cornwall. Currently Charles oversees the area and one day William will inherit the property. This will take place when Charles ascends to the throne upon the relinquishment of it by his mother Queen Elizabeth.

The 72-year-old future king Charles said, “When I saw it, I couldn’t believe it ‒ I was deeply touched and moved by what he said. Frankly, it reduced me to tears. It did really because I suddenly thought well, just hearing that from him made the last 50 years worthwhile.”

Prince William was recorded talking about his inheritance while speaking for the 2019 documentary ‘Prince Charles: Inside The Duchy of Cornwall’.

At that time he said, “I’ve started to think about how I will inherit the Duchy one day and what I do with it. I think it’s really important, about the family angle, I really do.”

William then went on to say that he respects the legacy his father has built and how he intends to pass the torch to his three children: Prince George, eight, Princess Charlotte, six and Prince Louis, three.

When did Prince Charles become the holder of the Duchy? It happened in 1958 when he was made the Prince of Wales. Likewise William will be made the holder of the Duchy when Charles steps up in line.

The ease with which Charles spoke of William appears to be in sharp contrast to the reticence he has to speak his other son’s name. That would be Hollyweird Harry, the royal runaway who has taken to slamming his dad and the monarchy every chance he gets.

Harry the Duke of Sussex now lives in California with his wife Meghan Markle and their two kids.

According to royal watcher Emily Andrews, the growing connection between the two future kings is, “natural as they get older and realize their shared values ‒ a current Prince of Wales and his successor ‒ in protecting the monarchy.”

“But also, it has been a necessity as the institution has suffered blows to its reputation.”
