Jubilees are a milestone for how long someone has been a Monarch, and it typically starts from a 25 year reign (Silver Jubilee) to a 70 (Platinum Jubilee) currently. And if he does manage to celebrate his first Jubilee, he'd be 98 turning 99.

He might have a better shot at it than you think.. His parents lived a loooong time.
Most monarchs don’t. Before Elizabeth II, the last monarch to celebrate a jubilee was George V, before him it was Victoria, and before her it was George III. That’s five monarchs between George III and Elizabeth II who didn’t even make it to their silver jubilee, and only four who did.
Long reigns are usually followed by short reigns. Charles became a father kind of late in life, so William isn’t likely to have more than a silver jubilee either. The money they save on jubilees they will spend on the next monarch’s coronation.
Because QEII became a Queen at 25.
as people live longer I would assume there would be fewer jubilees. even if Charles only lives another 10ish years, William will still be 50ish by the time he takes over. so that’s what, 1 jubilee for him? maybe 2?
unless something tragic happens and someone ascends the throne very young, I would assume most future monarchs would only see 1 or 2 jubilees.
