Prince William has replaced Prince Philip as family disciplinarian: ‘Calling the shots’
Until April 2021, Prince Philip ran the royal household while Queen Elizabeth II ran the nation. He died at the age of 99 and now William is stepping into the role, sources say.
Prince William is on the rise to head of the family – and in the process is filling the big shoes of the late Prince Philip.
This means he now takes the lead on big decisions and move to protect loved-ones with the final say on things.
The source told the Daily Beast William has taken on a disciplinarian role within the family, which has been deemed reminiscent of his late grandfather Prince Philip.
The source said: “Philip ruled the family with a rod of iron and you saw when he died that discipline collapsed.
“Now William is calling the shots when it comes to family discipline.”

Philip was known to be strict and one reason for that is because his wife was the Queen of England, leaving him to run the household and be the disciplinarian.
It was said he didn’t have a soft side, at least not seen in public.

Royal biographer Sally Bedell Smith said of the couple: “[The queen] relied increasingly on her husband to make the major family decisions, and she depended on the nannies to supervise daily lives.”
Philip died in 2021 at the age of 99 and William is now taking on the role of the strict patriarch, not to his children, to his younger brother, it’s been said.
