\nEven while nobody consciously desired the death of the adored Queen Elizabeth II, it\u2019s reasonable to claim that King Charles had been preparing for the role of monarch many years.\n
King Charles waited a very long time indeed to ultimately become king. Charles became the oldest monarch to ascend to the throne in history when the late Queen Elizabeth lived longer than even her most ardent supporters may have imagined.\n
But given the health problems Charles has recently had, is it really necessary for him to stay on the throne for very long? No, maybe it would be best for everyone if Prince William took up the task of preserving the monarchy and its future while Charles bided a loving farewell and withdrew to the many pleasures of his Sandringham estate.\n
\nEven while nobody consciously desired the death of the adored Queen Elizabeth II, it\u2019s reasonable to claim that King Charles had been preparing for the role of monarch many years.\n
Charles really beat Edward VII\u2019s record of 59 years to become the longest-serving monarch-in-waiting in British history. In addition, he became the oldest British crown heir ever. We are all aware of how volatile the King\u2019s reign has been thus far.\n
\n
The frequent outbursts and accusations from Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have been handled by the Royal Family, and Charles\u2019 and his fellow senior royals\u2019 popularity decreased for a spell. In addition, even though the royal family keeps their political opinions private, they have been impacted by important issues like climate change.\n
The Royal Family still has great support from a large number of people around the world, but it is also experiencing a legitimacy crisis. The monarchy has faced criticism in recent years for allegedly being out of touch with contemporary social issues and failing to connect to younger people.\n
\n
In light of this, is 73-year-old King Charles really the best person to lead the Royal Family in the direction of greater fashion, relevance, and, to be honest, modernity? I don\u2019t personally believe he is. It seems sense that Charles wants to rule and reign for a very long time. He\u2019s been waiting for the position for decades, yet it could be useful to compare other European monarchy.\n
Earlier this year, Queen Margrethe of Denmark decided it was time for some new blood and abdicated. At the age of 82, she expressed her belief that \u201ctime was running out and the ills were increasing\u201d in her own words. Rather, a new era in Danish monarchy has begun with the ascent of her son, King Frederik.\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
