It will be a very busy December for the royal family, with Prince Harry releasing his tell-all book and Prince William and Kate Middleton taking a trip to the United States.
Prince William shared a delightful video in late July confirming the British invasion. The heir to the throne and his spouse will host the second annual Earthshot Prize in Boston, Massachusetts.
Kate Middleton and Prince William are expected to travel to the East Coast for a grandiose ceremony where they will meet and honor the five winners.
The five activists and environmentalists will each receive a grant of £1 million ($1.2 million) to continue their work toward ending climate change.
The 2022 Earthshot Prize will serve as a launching pad for the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, who now have found a new interest in life — conquering the American public.
According to Prince Harry and Meghan Markle‘s ally and royal author Omid Scobie, Prince William and Kate Middleton’s life goal is getting a slice of the American pie that the Duke and Duchess of Sussex have bitten into.
The royal expert revealed that Middleton and Prince William are not making a quick stop in the United States; they are plotting a full U.S. tour with visits to Washington D.C. or New York.
The commentator explained that the future king of England has his mind set on getting a greater global presence.
With the African countries no longer part of the U.K. and the Caribbean nations eager to get rid of Queen Elizabeth as head of their states, Prince William’s last hope is the U.S.
The author said a source close to Prince William explained why the U.S. had become his main objective: “William is keen for his work to be seen and have an impact outside of the U.K. and the royal bubble. The charitable landscape in America is huge, and he wants to have a presence.”
What better way to have a real presence and fulfill their extravagant and grandiose ambitions than hosting a fancy $50,000-a-head dinner in brightly lit and snowy New York around Christmas time?
It will certainly be the talk of the town, covered by the world’s media, where they will rub elbows with high-profile attendees, including A-list celebrities and famous politicians.
The author shared more details about Prince William’s American takeover: “And with plans for the Cambridges’ December visit to be much more than just an appearance at William’s environmental prize, sources tell me that preliminary conversations about a fundraising event – similar to the $50,000-a-head dinner the couple hosted eight years ago in New York – have already taken place. Recon, I’m also told, has also been scheduled for a number of royal engagements and activities for the couple in Boston and beyond. Perhaps even a trip to Washington DC.”
Prince William and Kate Middleton’s desire for a P.R. boost has other implications — a competition with Prince Harry and Markle.
The runaway royals have established themselves in California since early 2020.
They have used their titles, charities, speeches, and platforms to make more prominent names for themselves and cemented their rock star royal status.
Therefore, many see Prince William and his wife interfering with Prince Harry’s plans to be the only “superstar prince” in America.
The writer revealed: “Though the source made no mention of it, I wondered if a little competitiveness with his brother might be in the mix, too. Harry’s popularity in Britain may be suffering, but his rise in the U.S. has seen the Archewell Foundation receive huge attention from an impressive list of donors, and his charitable efforts and campaigning have quickly seen him acknowledged by the likes of Forbes and TIME, who named him and Meghan two of the world’s most influential people.”
Some Americans deem the decision controversial and unnecessary. They say Prince William and his wife should focus on poor and war-torn countries instead of spending their time and energy trying to get some limelight after their disastrous Caribbean tour.
It is worth noting that Kate Middleton and Prince William will arrive on American soil just in time for Prince Harry’s book release — and that will undoubtedly create a new set of drama for both sides.
