Prince Charles' Plans For Kingship, Monarchy Revealed By Royal Biographer
Prince Charles has started to prepare for his future role in the British Monarchy. Reports said, however, that the British Royal Family seemingly commenced the "transition" about a decade ago.
Regardless of when it all started, the Prince of Wales' recent movements sparked discussions among royal fans and experts. Many, reportedly, believe that he has now drawn up more concrete plans for his role as the King of the United Kingdom.
Christopher Wilson wrote for the Daily Express and claimed that the Queen's heir will never "publicly" use the phrase, "when I become King." He said that saying so would mean the loss of Queen Elizabeth.
Despite this, though, Prince Charles has, reportedly, laid out some of his plans for the British Monarchy. The most recent one was his decision not to renew the lease of his organic Home Farm in Gloucestershire.
Clarence House confirmed that the Prince of Wales will not sign on the new 20-year lease for his farm, according to Birmingham Mail. After 35 years of farming at the 1,000-acre plot near Highgrove, he could no longer, reportedly, commit after the lease expires in the spring of 2021.
The publication described the move as "practical" considering that he will become the head of the British Monarchy "at some stage." As the reigning monarch after his mother, he will likely "devote" his time to his role.
Wilson continued and asserted that he will, also, likely spend much less time at Highgrove, which has, reportedly, served as his "signature base" for more than four decades. Instead, he will focus on the British Monarch's traditional homes at Windsor, Balmoral, and Sandringham.
As for his official property, the journalist said that Prince Charles will never live inside Buckingham Palace. He added that many royal watchers, also, believe the same thing as the Prince of Wales "dislikes" the property. It is likely, however, that he and Camilla will remain at Clarence House when they are in London.
The final agenda on the list is, reportedly, the Prince of Wales' regnal name and the Duchess of Cornwall's title. Wilson claimed that Camilla will not have a crown and anointing as what the Queen Mother had in 1937 when King George VI ascended to the British Throne. As noted, she will not become "Queen Camilla," as she will have the style of "Princess Consort."
In the case of Prince Charles, speculations have continued to emerge that he will call himself, "King Charles III." While it is possible, Wilson stated that there is "no guarantee" that he will do so.
