There is a queen in the UK who has a very long standby time, Elizabeth II . She is the longest-serving monarch in British history. At the same time, there is also a crown prince in the UK who has been elected for the longest time, and he is Prince Charles . It has been 69 years since Charles was established as the heir to the throne in 1952. During his 69 years of crown prince, he seemed to have been living a life of being arranged. Although he was constantly fighting the fate of being arranged, he had almost no choice in his life until he entered his old age. He finally got willful. Today, Hawkeye Shikong will tell you the story of Prince Charles' life being arranged.
Prince Charles
Charles, born in 1948, was when he was born after World War II, and the British Empire was in decline. As a prince and his bad luck, this also destined to be restricted and bound in his life. He has no choice in many things in life. At the age of 4, his mother Elizabeth became the Queen of England and he also became the crown prince of England. Until he was 9 years old, he had been receiving a private education at Buckingham Palace. However, when he was 9 years old, he was suddenly sent outside the palace to attend elementary school at Gordonston School. He also became the first British royal family member to be sent out of the palace to attend elementary school. His father, Philip, hopes to hone his son's will in this way. When he was in high school, he slept in the same room with 14 classmates, and his classmates often bullied and beat him. Charles was very afraid of this kind of life and even described the school as "hell."
Phillip has always been harsh on Charles, and Charles also began to resist this kind of life and began to hate his father. Once, Charles had an argument with his father, and Charles said angrily: "Don't forget who you are talking to, I am the future king."
Because he left a psychological shadow when he was in school, Charles lacked a sense of security, which also led to his extremely strong desire to control himself. Perhaps it was because he resisted the unsuccessful choice, and he was extremely picky about his servants.
Charles asked them to be on call, and Charles also often complained that the temperature of the air conditioner was uncomfortable. Even when going out for a trip, Charles had to ask about everything in detail. Charles's nitpicking also led to frequent replacement of his private secretary.
Charles' first marriage ended in failure, which seems to be an option to choose. On July 29, 1981, Charles married Diana . Although Diana has a noble status, her career is only a kindergarten teacher. Their marriage is also called the real version of "Prince and Cinderella", but Charles does not recognize the princess. Even the night before her marriage, Charles was still with his lover Camilla and cried to her: "I will always love you no matter what happens."
Charles and Diana
Charles and Diana married, he is still hostile to Diana and has a lot of connection with his lover Camilla.
In 1990, Charles was revealed to have cheated on his marriage, and the target was Camilla. But Charles didn't think he had done something wrong. Faced with everyone's accusations, Charles turned the blame on his father who forced him to marry Diana. It was not until 1996 that Charles and Diana ended the 15-year marriage. However, in August of the following year, Diana unfortunately died in a car accident. Charles also announced at this time that he would not marry Camilla. For this reason, he did not hesitate to offend many important officials. Camilla also gradually appeared next to Charles. But for a long time, the British royal family was very unfriendly to Camilla. Even the Queen accused Camilla of being a "vicious" woman. Charles' two sons also criticized him in public, believing that he caused his mother's car accident. Since then, I have been deliberately avoiding meeting Charles.
Charles doesn't seem to care about their accusations. This time, he wants to hold his destiny in his own hands. In 2005, Charles married Camilla. After getting married to Camilla, Charles seemed much more relaxed. Camilla is also defending Charles everywhere. Charles was at a loss when he learned that Camilla was not accepted as a princess by the British royal family.In order to make up for his debts to Camilla, Charles asked that all national flags be hung in the UK on Camilla's birthday. Charles also publicly declared that without Camilla, his life would lose all its glory.
Charles and Camilla
Charles had no choice when he was crown prince. He has been the "King in Waiting" for 69 years and this waiting seems to be a long time. What's worse is that the Queen of England is not willing to pass the throne to this impulsive Charles. Even at a private dinner in 2017, Prince Philip said bluntly that he and the queen lived so long in order to prevent Charles from ascending the throne and did not want him to be a "noisy monarch."
In 2019, there were rumors that Charles and Camilla had divorced. Some members of the royal family revealed that the entire royal family knew about this, but the Queen Yan Ling temporarily concealed the matter. If the rumors come true, then Charles's only willfulness will be declared a failure. His life has really become a life that he has no choice.
