5 Notable "Heirs and Spares" in the British Royal Family

William has learned from the way that he and Harry were raised how to create a balance between preparing the eldest child to be a ruler while making both children feel as important and valued as each other. Kate comes from a stable and happy family home, so she will be able to strengthen this dynamic using her own experiences. This means that as Charlotte grows, her parents will be keeping an eye on her passions and strengths in order to guide her in how these can best be used to create a fulfilling and enduring role for herself. Meanwhile, she will also act as a support to her big brother until he has a family of his own.
