“There is an entirely reasonable argument to be made that if you are born into the Royal Family, the logical thing to do is to leave it. The same logic applies to your kids, he doesn’t want to put them through a human mincer that is going to cause everyone misery.”

The source added: “He and Catherine adore the children, and their whole lives are about the children.

I think they want to find a practical solution to the ‘spare’ problem that has bedeviled the family for generations.”

Prince George, 10, Princess Charlotte, nine, and Prince Louis, six, made their first public appearance of 2024 last weekend.

Surprising royal fans with their attendance, the young trio were present at this year’s Trooping the Colour.

As well as their first appearance of the year, the Princess of Wales attended the annual event on June 15.

The roya, 42, was diagnosed with cancer earlier this year following tests after undergoing abdominal surgery back in January.

Kate, who revealed her diagnosis back in March, confirmed on June 14 that she would be in attendance the following day – as well as giving an update on her health.

In her statement she revealed that she is “doing well” but isn’t “out of the woods yet”.
