King Charles III, who met with Kate Middleton, allegedly gave the Palace the go-ahead to begin arranging Prince William's accession to the Throne.
According to a fresh story, the 76-year-old queen met privately with Princess Catherine about her decision to step up earlier than planned.
According to the insider, palace officials are working hard to "ensure Kate and William have as smooth a transition to power as possible."
"She [Kate] and Charles had a private meeting about her stepping up sooner than expected," a source told Radar.
Sally Bedell Smith, royal biographer, previously told People: "Although the king is carrying out his duties with typical determination, he has had to accept limitations during his cancer treatment."
"There's a sense of calm before the storm," Bedell Smith explained. "They are next in line for the biggest job of their lives, and of course, Kate's health has taken priority, but it's also allowed everyone to take a step back and figure out what's important right now."
Palace insiders stated last month that royal officials began developing succession plans following the king's coronation in May 2023.
