William and Kate make big announcement

Published

The Prince and Princess of Wales have made a big announcement regarding a major shake-up in their team.

Princess Kate and Prince William have announced a huge new appointment in a major change to their team.

Former supermarket boss Sir David Lewis has been appointed a director of The Royal Foundation of the Prince and Princess of Wales.

The foundation covers all the couple’s campaigning work – including William’s Earthshot prize and Kate’s focus on early years education, The Sun reports.

Sir David, 59, worked at Unilever for 27 years – launching the now iconic Dove brand from scratch.

The Yorkshireman earned the nickname “Drastic Dave” for his ruthless approach to cost-cutting.

In 2014 Sir David left to become CEO of Tesco after it posted a £6.4 billion loss.

Drastic Dave cut thousands of jobs as well as boardroom perks like private jets in a bid to fend off competition from Aldi and Lidl.

Two years later, Tesco reported whopping annual profits of £162 million.

Sir David left Tesco in 2020 to “take some proper time out with my family” at their Surrey home.

But he soon joined a renewable energy start-up and has also taken on roles with Morrisons, Pepsi and the World Wildlife Fund.

In 2021 he was knighted for services to business – catching the royal family’s eye.

A royal source told the Daily Mail Sir David’s appointment is “genius” and will lay “strong foundations” for William and Kate’s work.

But the couple have reportedly shelved plans to appoint a new CEO to run their royal household.

They announced a search for a new executive last September amid reports William wanted a “revolutionary” shake-up.
