The King is in the making
Since his birth, Prince George has been groomed to take over from his grandfather, King Charles III, and then from his father, Prince William. On July 22, 2013, just a few hours after her birth, she was introduced to the public on the steps of the maternity ward under the crackling glare of photographers who had come from all over the world to capture the swaddled baby’s face. in the arms of his parents. Then the English discover the man who will one day become their sovereign.
Kate and William’s first-born still doesn’t seem to be getting the attention of the media, eager to document its evolution through the ages. Every year the young man becomes wiser. Gone are the scowls of the beginning, George now shows a scowl, suddenly making him more serious. Like his father William, decades ago. The fault lies in the already pre-charted destiny of becoming the face of the British monarchy.
