Prince William has admitted he might never succeed the Queen as head of the Commonwealth following his trouble-hit visit to the Caribbean.
In an unprecedented end-of-tour statement, the Duke addressed the growing republican sentiment the trip had inadvertently highlighted, acknowledging it had ‘brought into even sharper focus questions about the past and the future'.
His week-long trip with Kate, which came to an end last night, has been plagued by public relations gaffes and protests about British colonialism, which led to the endeavour being branded ‘tone deaf' to modern sensibilities.
William tacitly acknowledged the anti-royalist sentiment, in his extraordinary statement, saying that while he was ‘committed to service', that involved ‘not telling people what to do'.
‘It is about serving and supporting them in whatever way they think best, by using the platform we are lucky to have,' he added.
