According to British media on the 19th, as parents, the Queen Elizabeth II of England and the husband of Prince Philip was alive, and when Prince Philip was alive, he promised that his youngest son, Prince Edward, would one day inherit the title of his father Duke of Edinburgh, but this plan seemed to have been torn apart by the King of Charles . According to a court source who did not want to be named, King Charles III of refused to give the title to the youngest brother as agreed by his parents. Prince Edward could not be the Duke of Edinburgh. Not only himself, but even his descendants would stop at the throne of count.
According to sources, Prince Edward is unlikely to be named Duke of Edinburgh, because Charles III, the ambitious new king, has been planning to streamline the monarchy for a long time, and he must reduce the number of members of the royal family, preferably only him, his beloved wife Camilla and his eldest son, William .
This action should not have been criticized. If it were not considered that his youngest brother Prince Edward has been conscientiously attending the heavy royal duties, if it was not considered that Edward, Earl of Wessex, was the only son who did not have the title of duke among the three sons of Queen and Philip, if it was not considered that Queen Elizabeth II and Philip had already planned to pass the title of Duke of Edinburgh to him after Wang Fu's death, and Charles at that time agreed to the arrangement.
This makes the horse run well, and the idea that the horse doesn't eat grass is shocking when it comes to a king.
, but it is not particularly surprising. After all, it is not the first time that Charles, the most noble person in the UK, has not kept his promise and has returned to his word.
Not to mention that he always implemented the " Don't be a crown prince without a mistress " in his marriage to the original wife Princess Diana " and broke the oath on the altar. When he reconciled the conflict between the angry British people and Camilla, he also adopted the trick of " Boiling a frog in warm water".
In April 2005, in order to successfully marry Camilla, Charles, who was the crown prince of Britain, sent his staff to say on the official website of his "Prince Palace" Clarence Palace that Camilla will always be the "companion concubine" status and will not be the queen of Britain.
Now, Camilla has firmly sat on the throne of the British queen in the deal between Charles and the Queen.
However, Prince Edward, a little brother, now seems to be facing the situation of being "destroyed by crossing the river".
After Prince Philip's death last year, the ownership of the title of Duke of Edinburgh was transferred to Charles. According to the agreement, Prince Edward will take over the title at the latest after the Queen's death and become the new Duke of Edinburgh. But now it seems that the good brother will not give this title to his younger brother Edward.
Even if the queen who had just passed away made a promise, the new king Charles III would not be interested.
I wonder if Prince Edward would regret his decision to only want the title of Earl when he married his wife Sophie in 1999.
Facts show that Edward's idea of inheriting the title of Duke of Edinburgh "at the right time" is shattered.
After all, as the saying goes, you should not be in the waist when you hit a rabbit to be considered your own.
"The king wants to streamline the monarchy (so) it makes no sense to make the Count the Duke of Edinburgh," a court source who asked not to be named told reporters. "As we all know, the king wants to streamline the monarchy. The Duke of Edinburgh is a hereditary title. If it is passed to the Earl of Wessex, it will also be passed to him and the Countess' son James , which is now Viscount Severn."
sources hinted that Prince Edward should have been mentally prepared for the current situation: when the Earl agreed that his two children would not become princes or princesses, he should have accepted this.
This is really one time and another. When Edward got married, the situation was very different. At that time, , the eldest prince Charles, was very happy that , the younger brother, could inherit his father's title in the future.
At that time, Buckingham Palace said in a statement: "The Queen, Duke of Edinburgh and Prince of Wales agreed to give Prince Edward the Duke of Edinburgh at the appropriate time, and the title that Prince Philip now holds will eventually be returned to the royal family."
As for the party involved, Prince Edward, he had to calm down.
He previously stated that the final decision of the title is up to Charles.
Edward told the BBC reporter: "It's good in theory, long ago, when my father daydreamed ... Of course, it will depend on what the Prince of Wales, who is king, will do, so wait and see. Yes, it will be a pretty big challenge."
