Is King Charles III and Queen Camilla deserving of their title?

Savannah Creighton, Staff writer

Queen Elizabeth II of England died on September 8th, 2022. Next in line to take the crown are Prince Charles III and his wife Camilla Rosemary Shand. But, are we happy that he is the king and SHE is the queen consort? Do they deserve that title? What are people thinking about Camilla being the queen’s consort when Diana was put through so much chaos? I went around asking people their side, their piece, and their feelings on this hot topic.

“Well, personally, I don’t like King Charles because honestly, he was totally waiting for mom to die because they did post a picture on Instagram about them digging the grave, and he was like all smiling, and it looked strange. Also, I don’t like his wife because she did say things about Queen Elizabeth and Princess Diana.” – Alyssa Fernandez (9)

“I think he is going to ruin the whole like the royal family and their vibe like he is like going to give like his grandchildren their titles and all of that. So I do not support that I think his son Prince William should take over and take over King Charles, King Charles is a no go for me and I don’t like him.” – Giselle Barragan (9)

“Honestly, don’t like the idea of it. Diana Forever” – Anonymous

“I didn’t like it, not a good thing” – Laney Hyatt (9)

“I don’t like him because he was mean to Princess Diana, and yeah, I don’t like him. He is a big no.” -Amani Cunningham (9)

“I think that he is too old to be taking it for the first time, and I don’t think it is going to last more than 15 years” – Shelby Cichos (9)

“I don’t like it because we have had a queen for so long and I like saying we have a queen and king Charles is really old and not even competent and like overall not a good person.”  – Oliva Downs (9)

“I don’t like him because he cheated on Diana” – Pearl Michael (10)

“I don’t; it’s kind of weird considering that his mom ruled for so long and he is old, so I don’t know, it’s just weird” -Anonymous

The issue with Diana and Charles was Camilia. Camila was always in his life whether it was romantically or not. She was still in his life, they were bonded. And Diana knew that which I believe made everything worse.

Though Charles was “pressured” to marry Diana, Diana was very much in love with Charles. But Charles was not, in fact… the night before his wedding, he told Diana that he did not love her. Diana’s astrologer Penny Thornton says that Diana confessed this to her.

Adultery and affairs were frowned upon, which everyone, including Charles and Camilia, knew and still went on. It was known that both were cheating, which caused embarrassment for Diana and Andrew Parker Bowles when the affair came out to the world.  After 10 years of dealing with cheating, betrayal, and unhealthy marriage Diana and Charles were officially divorced.  Though it was never announced, it was known that his love was for Camilia and Camilia only.
