Prince William was reportedly concerned about how Kate Middleton would adjust to royal life. According to Russell Myers's new book, William and Catherine: The Monarchy's New Era: The Inside Story, the Prince of Wales was worried that his future wife would feel lost upon entering The Firm. "He was very concerned she would be completely overawed by the whole thing," a former courtier told the author in a passage via Marie Claire.
