So it looks like she’s not scared of the job, despite what some of her critics might be saying. Forget all of those rumors that suggest she just wants to live a quiet life in the countryside.

Because that doesn’t seem to be the case at all as Kate Middleton is facing her new reality and the possibility that she might be queen sooner than expected.

Royal Family News – Kate Middleton Is Looking Forward To Becoming Queen Of England After All

As many royal fans are aware of by now, Kate Middleton isn’t the only member of the royal family who has been dealing with a cancer battle this year. Her father-in-law, King Charles, has also been hit with his own health woes as he was diagnosed with cancer the same time as the Princess of Wales.

And because no one knows what might be in store for the future, both Kate and her husband Prince William are preparing to expect the unexpected.

One source close to the situation even told People magazine, “Although the King is carrying out his duties with typical determination, he has had to accept limitations during his cancer treatment. As a result William has been taking on more responsibilities, and he and Kate have been preparing for their future roles sooner than they would have expected.”

And while you’d think that both William and Kate would be on pins and needles over all of this seeing how there’s going to be so many significant changes in their lives, that doesn’t seem to be the case.

Instead, the insider added, “There’s a sense of calm before the storm. 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.”
