King Charles’ bold plan for Prince Louis: He might follow in his grandfather’s footsteps with a royal shake-up

King Charles’ coronation on May 6, 2025, will feature the most family members in attendance, including his three grandchildren: Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis. While George is expected to have a significant role, Louis will make his first major royal appearance at the event. Speculation surrounds his future, as he is a long way from the throne. King Charles might have plans for him, potentially even offering him the prestigious title of Duke of Edinburgh after Prince Edward.
Though Harry and Meghan have been invited, their attendance remains uncertain, and if they do attend, they may face a “cold shoulder” from some family members. Meanwhile, William and Kate are reportedly concerned about the pressure on George, as his future role as king weighs heavily on his shoulders. As the monarchy faces a shift toward a slimmer structure, the future of young royals like Louis remains unclear.
