Imagine had King Charles III still has Princess Diana. Her popularity would have helped King Charles III get more sympathy and support.
Depends. Perhaps she could have done something to make her unpopular, if they stayed married and she’d still live.
@dorderre imagine the love of his life would have wanted to marry him instead of Parker Bowles.
@Carole Fearnley the one wearing tinted spectacles is you. Hater
@M e i a he should have proposed to Camilla in the very first place, which he didn’t. Camilla was in love and married Parker Bowles, remember?
@The Egg Incident there’s more flowers outside the castle when Diana died than the Queen
Gotta love how this video goes over nothing but the absolute worst possible outcomes
look
@Will smh SPEAK 🗣️ !!!
Whatever!
“King Charles” has a right regal sound to it.
Just try saying it loud.
Long live the King👑!!
@Joker Raton I’m English…? I don’t understand your point
It was an honour to live through The Second Elizabethan Era. RIP to Her Royal Highness 👑
really cheesy….
What to expect? That he follows his mother.
The Queen was Her Majesty, not H.R.H.
Many thanks for your honorable life you had.
Hes been awaiting this moment for probably 70 when he was told he would be king of England. Imagine waiting an entire life time for this day and losing your mother at the same time.
@Mr. Ornstein The former monarch is always dead. That’s why we said “ the Queen is dead, long live the King”.
You have a lot more freedom when you’re the king in waiting, as opposed to being the king.
You have to have a heart to care. This man doesn’t have a heart.
What saddens me is that usually the former monarch would usually, give the current monarch tips and advices, but with her majesty’s passing its different from being on the side to then suddenly talking over, especially when he just lost his teacher and mother
What Kingdom will King Charles be in charge? Are UK citizens just ornamentaly keeping these monarch people for just sentimental reasons?
“The role of a monarch in the modern world is to protect the people from the politicians.”
– Franz Joseph, Emperor of Austria-Hungary
That has been the history of Europe in a nutshell. All these ignorant people like to believe the simplified version of Whig History, so they think the Magna Carta made everyone democratic so that one day America would exist, when in fact, it was a bunch of middle-management oligarchs forcing their CEO to stand down. The middle-management types also did this with Hungary, and you know what happened? Power was so decentralized, the Hungarians couldn’t do a thing about the centralized, obedient, loyal Ottoman Turks, while all the middle-management fled the country or even switched sides.
Exactly!
@Alis Avdagić study their constitution first before commenting. Proposing a Law is not a monarch’s role.
@Marcus His wife and true love Elisabeth(or Sisi as she is often called) is also one of the most loved royal figures of all time, especially in Austria and Hungary
I think it would be better that Charles rules as long as he could. That way William and Kate could raise their little ones long enough without the demands of the responsibilities of a reigning monarch. At this point their children need them more.
How old was charles when queen elizabeth ii became the queen?
@Thomas Shaughnessy not necessarily he will abdicate. May be he’ll let his wolf ahem wife to run the show.
Yes. They are both working so hard to pay the bills. Double full time.
Charles rules will be the worst. I wish William be king not Charles.
Given how long both his parents lived Charles could be on the throne for at least the next 20 years and by then William will be in his 60’s
I would argue that in terms of longevity the Japanese Imperial family has been more successful–more than twice as old as the British Monarchy–but I take your point.
@Rishav Kumar yeah but they weren’t the rulers of England at that time. It was only when William the Conqueror took England that their reign started.
@Yvonne Plant Yep. Because they failed terriblely
@Goughy their public also loves their Emperor
@Caesar actually the house of Windsor can be traced back to Anglo Saxon times .
@Damian Lee they didn’t set up colonies like Westerners, Genociding native populations while filing up the colonies with Europeans.
But the Japanese were brutal to their subjects nonetheless
Interestingly, the “Dissolution and Calling of Parliament Act 2022” passed in March 2022, returning the King’/ prerogative powers to dissolve the parliament.
Perhaps a more politically involved King would not be so bad.
Watch out! He’s a WEF puppet. He wants the great reset
@TheSimpleAnswer so he wants to take the ownership of running country entirely back on them rather than the parliament?
Both Charles the 1st and Charles the Second dissolved parliament. its destiny to happen now
He must be careful meddling the politics, otherwise his fate would be end up like Charles I. 😅
@Quilliam Attari smh… 🤨🤨🤨
I think Argentine politicians cost us much more than that and at least the monarchy can be used by the country to sell stuff, tourism, etc. I laugh at the idea of people thinking that a republic will be different from a monarchy. Spoiler.. it’s not.
That’s what I’m saying!
The new king’s speech today was well crafted and beautifully delivered. I’m expecting he’ll be a fine, unifying king.
@Wendy Sue China and probably still Ukraine if they get another $50billion and a met gala invite.
I think the US ought to propose a swap but who’d want Biden?
@Texas Ray not him… Know that… 🤨🙄
@Cedric Coe William should be anyway… 🤔
@Cedric Coe Even if that is the case, it is highly unlikely that Scotland or Wales would give up the monarchy. They would likely retain the King as their head of state and just have fully independent national parliaments.
