“Charles would do a good job, of course, but in terms of freshening things up it would be better with William and Kate.”

When asked whether he thinks his niece is ready to be Queen Consort, Gary added: “Kate was born ready. I think she’s quite unique. I’ve said it before but I mean it, she’s as beautiful inside as out. And she knows about duty and putting others before herself. Kate is a giver, not a taker.”

Meanwhile, earlier this week, historian and author of biography Battle of Brothers Robert Lacey said Prince Philip helped coach his grandson William as a future King.

Mr Lacey told PEOPLE: “Philip was crucial in helping coach William as a future King.

“It was Philip’s idea to set up the lunches between William and his grandmother.

“When the time came for the Queen to talk business with William, Philip would quietly excuse himself because he didn’t feel that the constitutional side of the Queen’s job was something he wanted to interfere in.”
