Analysts are suggesting that a 'power struggle' between Kim Jong-un's wife, Ri Sol-Ju, and his sister Kim Yo-jong is taking place over who will take over the North Korean leadership when the tyrant passes away. Kim Ju-ae, the dictator's daughter, has been making public appearances and has been cropped out of footage of her father and her at a football match, leading to speculation that she is being groomed for the succession. Cheong Seong-chang of the Sejong Institute claims that Ri Sol-ju has been warning Kim Yo-jong that the succession will go to their children, while North Korea expert Michael Madden said that the idea was not as 'outlandish' as some of the other rumours about North Korea's core elite.

It is rumored that Ri Sol-Ju and Kim Yo-jong are in contention for the succession of power from Kim Jong-un, with the latter's daughter Kim Jue-ae being pointed to as the possible successor to the North Korean leader. Analysts suggest the two powerful women in the tyrant's life are in a 'power struggle', with Ri Sol-Ju, the First Lady, warning Kim Yo-jong that the succession will go to their children and not her. These claims, however, have been described as 'overly speculative' by some.
