The Prince of Wales is to marry Camilla Parker Bowles, Clarence House has announced.

Edward was already King, and he had to choose to give up the throne to marry a divorcee. He made a choice, and chose the woman that he loved rather than the job of being king. Charles doesn't want to make that choice. He wants the best of both worlds.

I understand people like to read news about monarchies and kingships. But for me this is utter nonsense with things like kings and queens and princess and all that junk. The queen is dead and royalty to the king means cracker jacks to me. For me these are only people with lots of money and full of hot air. 👇

Well like it or not, people here still have to pledge their allegiance to the Queen. She and the rest of the royal family still sucks around 8million pounds each year from us, and our taxes are paying for Camilla's ring and her expensive wedding, there are people who love Diana here still, so i think its pretty obvious why people are interested.
This people have an effect on the economy in our country, and this is hardly a nonsense to people here - maybe to you.

You know whats really a nonsense? When people obsess over celebrities around LA.

It should be. THat's what edward had to do to get married to a divorced woman, and he was already king. But carles won't make that decision. He wasnts to still be king. He wants to play the game, but isn't willing to play by the rules.

what do you mean.. I mean ... Charles still has the chance to be King?? I thought if he married Camille(sp?) then he couldnt have a chance to be king and then it is passed to William...

❌
He was the king of the British empire just before WW2. He fell in love with an american divorced woman, but parlement and the rest of the royal family told him that if he were to marry her, he would have to abdicate his throne. He chose her instead of keeping on as king, and his kingship went to his brother, while edward went and got married to the woman he loved.

I like that story.. its romantic in_love

eleveninches God of my own world

I think it's sad. He was the king of the entire British Empire!!! And he was forced to give up his throne ❌

Morning_Glory Sleeping In My Soul

so he shouldnt have married her.. ??? I mean... he loved her

eleveninches God of my own world

My point is that he shouldn't have had to give up his throne to do it. But since he did, then Charles should have to do the same thing.

so you dont think Charles should get married? and just stay with the chance to be King later... when ever your Queen dies ...???🙁

smoker4 Me name be Leon

Dont think charles will ever be king, william will probably jump the queue now especially with charlie marrying his horse

Do you think they're only getting married coz Camilla is pregnant?
One of my grandfathers friends claims to have had sex with Camilla in 1947.

I said it many times in other threads that the British should drop the monarchy and stop supporting them with their own money. How to drop them? I don't know. But as long as there is a way to cut down on their expenses is all good. Whether there is a king or not in Englad is really not that critical for me. I'm not affect in any way. But the one thing that would bug me is to go visit England and ask to bow down or kneel before someone that supposly is of blue blood or link to royalty. Uh-uh.....I don't think so.

No, what really is nonsense is the countless tourists that come from all the world looking to take some snapshots of celebreties. And all they find are liquor stores and Adult stores all over the town.

Given the shocking scale of overall waste of public funds the expenditure on the monarchy is a pack of chewing gum!

If anyone thinks the UK would even vaguely benefit from the removal of the Monarchy they are fooling themselves.

Imagine if it had been done already... we'd have had a president Thatcher into the nineties!

Do the British people really have to paid separate taxes to the king? Is it affecting the commonwealth? I thought Oliver Cromwell fix all that centuries ago. 😕
