Blast from the past

Back to 2023, when Valentine Low was still writing for The Times.

But just over a year into his service as Prince of Wales it is becoming clear that William is the prince who wants to do things differently, from seaweed to royal warrants. [...] However, behind the scenes it is also apparent that quietly, and without making a great fuss about it, William questions many of the ingrained traditions that the royal family has long taken for granted. He often asks his advisers: “Is there a way of doing these things genuinely a bit differently?” One example is the system of royal warrants, which recognises people or companies that provide goods or services to the royal household. Present holders range from Fortnum & Mason to a firm of chimney sweeps. At the moment, the issuing of royal warrants is not William’s responsibility, but he has already been asking whether warrants could go to supporting up-and-coming young artists, for instance — not because they are an established business but as a way of giving them support.

Well, well, well...

Back in September 2023, Kensington Palace had no problem spilling to Valentine Low William's "different" plans for royal warrants. Something that sounds far more like a patronage than a warrant.

William doesn't do much support for his patronages to begin with. What would an artist really gain from having a "warrant" by him? Also, it's interesting that William is the one listed as wanting to support artists when he graduated with a degree in geography instead of art history, like his wife.

William has already shaken up the system of patronages. The late Queen Elizabeth was patron of more than 600 charities. Apart from his military affiliations, William has 38. “By royal standards that is very small,” said the source. “That is deliberate.” It reflects his desire to have a deeper and more meaningful relationship with the organisations with which he is connected.

Yeah. 38 patronages circa 2023. He's picked up a few more since then. A FEW. Which puts the number into the 40s. He can't support any more because then he might have to do regular royal work, and he doesn't want to do that within his 32 working weeks per year.

If it's not the Earthshot Prize or Homewards, William doesn't seem to do that much for his patronage these days. I have yet to see "a deeper and more meaningful relationship" with his patronages demonstrated.

But still, notice that back in September 2023, we were all supposed to start thinking about Will & Kate's patronages & warrants, even though they did not have the ability to issue royal warrants.

Cut to one year ago on 09 January 2024, when non-royal-rota reporters James Hurley and Hannah Prevett published an article on businesses and royal warrants for The Times.

There aren’t many clubs where you’ll find premium fashion brands, famous sports car marques and top champagne producers rubbing shoulders with the providers of portable toilets, laundry services and horse riding helmets. All these and many more are members of the Royal Warrant Holders Association, which represents individuals and companies lucky enough to hold what it calls a “mark of recognition with a unique status in business” — royal warrants, which recognise the supply of goods or services to the royal household. There are about 800 holders, including famous names such as Aston Martin, Burberry and Coca-Cola, as well as hundreds of small companies. All are in the midst of the biggest shake-up of the system in decades. Last week the association, which administers the system, provided holders with some long-awaited details of the timetable for the overhaul of warrants required following the death of Queen Elizabeth II and the coronation of the King. About 570 holders of royal warrants have been sent application packs to apply for new ones from Charles III. Decisions are “expected in the autumn”, an email from the association seen by The Times says. The email contains the first confirmation that Queen Camilla will become a “grantor” of warrants, opening up fresh opportunities for companies to secure royal recognition. Applications for warrants to the Queen will open in May, as will applications from non-warrant-holders to secure one from the King. Decisions on this will be made in March next year. In March this year, former Prince of Wales warrant-holders will learn whether applications for a warrant from the King have been successful, the email says. Craig Beaumont, chief of external affairs at the Federation of Small Businesses, said: “This provides certainty for holders and a ‘royal roadmap’ through 2024 into 2025, for those applying for the very first time to be new suppliers to HM the King and HM the Queen.”

Look at that! Actual specific details and a timeline!

Did everyone notice that there is an actual association that manages the royal warrants? Not just mouthpieces from KP insinuating that Will & Kate are going to issue warrants "in due course."

If Will & Kate were going to be issuing royal warrants soon, then businesses would already have application packets available so that they could apply. The Royal Warrant Holders Association would have the requirement details and a timeline of when Will & Kate's royal warrants were going to be issued.

Details conveniently missing from any recent article about Will & Kate issuing royal warrants soon. Those details are missing because Will & Kate do not have the ability to issue warrants yet, and clearly are not going to get the ability in the near future.

Just like Kate's "gradual return," it ain't happening this year!
