The wedding is a National Occasion (no matter what TB thinks) as she is the future Queen
It is a National occasion, its not a State occasion. Therefore, the ceremony should be as private as possible, to an extent. Televise it, if thats OK with the couple, but the media's frenzy has, really, ruined it, as the media now feels it has to be sensationalist.
Whether she is THE future queen (note, she will never be The Queen) is not guaranteed... ...it will take the deaths of 2 people before that can happen. Hopefully, she can be the mother of a future heir.
Agreed that the media have ruined it, if you didn't avoid the hype, but the couple did agree to it being as it is
As for future... No, she won't be THE Queen, but she will be Queen by virtue of the fact that she is Married to THE KING! He will sit on the throne as King, perhaps many years down the line, but he will. I still wouldn't be surprised if Charles never does though
The Prince of Wales will be the King if he outlives Maj. Thats Royal Protocol, and how it should be. At which point, the now Duke and Duchess of Cambridge will become the Prince and Princess of Wales, and next in line...
Yes, that's Royal Protocol... But there is the possibility that he will not accept the title And, of course, that Her Maj may outlive him She does look extremely fit and healthy for her age
If Charles has a breath in his body after mum pops her clogs he
will be King. He wants it soooooo bad it hurts.
Personally I think the bloke is a rather moron, who should be in a home for the bewildered.
