Prince Charles And Camilla Parker Bowles: Duke And Duchess Of Cornwall To Reportedly Be Next In Line For Throne, 'What Do William And Harry Think? if Dad Is Happy, They're Happy'
Contrary to earlier reports about Prince Charles and Camilla Parker Bowles getting a divorce, the latest reports based on Dick Arbiter, a former Buckingham Palace press secretary said Camilla would be Queen when Prince Charles accedes the throne. The 88-year old ailing monarch, Queen Elizabeth will presumably step down and Prince Charles will replace her as King.
"On Duty With the Queen: My Time As a Buckingham Palace Press Secretary," was published by Arbiter and the book cites Camilla Bowles Parker, the Duchess of Cornwall will not take the position as princess consort as speculated.Rather, she will be seated beside Prince Charles: "If he becomes king at 79" Charles will have the support of his sons, Prince William and Prince Harry.
According to a royal statement in 2012, Camilla would be named Princess Consort should Charles become King. But she still needs legislative backing from 17 Commonwealth nations ruled by the monarchy.
IBT reported Arbiter as saying, "They'll have been married 23 years if he becomes king at 79. It will have been more than 30 years since Diana died. People mellow. She's pretty well received up and down the country these days. People say to me, 'What do William and Harry think? Their view is they like her and their attitude is if their father is happy, they're happy."
As Prince Charles gets ready for his turn at the throne and assuming the role of the king-to-be, it is possible that the people of Britain will vote for Camilla to be queen, even amid rumors that the king-in-waiting is dating singer Barbara Streisand. The British love their monarchy and the motto 'the more the merrier' takes center stage as the mother Queen is reportedly ill with Alzheimer's
