Big changes are underway.

They are, however, free to seek employment elsewhere and will be “financially independent” — but Prince Charles will also be helping them out with finances as well, according to recent news.
“Prince Charles will still continue to offer private financial support,” said royal correspondent Omid Scobie on Twitter along with a series of other updates about the royal family. Scobie also revealed that while the couple will no longer represent The Queen, they will gladly still attend royal engagements, including Trooping the Colour.
