In the 2016 documentary Kate Middleton: Biography, Christopher Andersen revealed Wills approached his dad for relationship advice in April 2007, reports Daily Star.
"William went to his father and said, ‘Look, I’m 25, I’m too young to get married. I just don’t want to commit at this point,'" Anderson claims.
At this point he and Kate had been dating for around four years, after meeting in 2001 while both studying at St Andrews University.
Anderson said: "Charles, who was by then very fond of Kate, said, 'It would be unfair to the young lady. You cannot string her along anymore, so you should just break it off.'"
Kate, also 25, then received a phone call at work on April 11, which brought an "unhappy ending" to her Cinderella story, Anderson said.
He added: "She was reeling after William broke off their five-year relationship."
But their split was short-lived, as the couple got back together around two months later in June, and went on to marry in April 2011.
