markb4 892 Posted September 8, 2022 PM speech pretty much confirmed that Charles will be known as King Charles III. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
QuebecCityOliver 26 Posted September 8, 2022 Yeah, Prince of Wales is not automatic. Coronation is a naming ceremony, too. I believe. King Bertie after Victoria is the best analogy, I suppose. But, yes, the king is the king regardless of what name we use. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don’t see her cancelling évents and showing to us all some signs of weakness till she ultimately dies. If this happens, it may either kill her of a sudden or she may last for a few more Time ie Pope Benedict Well this doesn’t aged well 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

She does not sound sincere or serious at all I don't mean to defend her, but what was she suppose to sound like? If the monarch died 2 days into my tenure as PM, I'd be a bit all over the place too. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RoverAndOut 4,746 Posted September 8, 2022 Lots on here and on the Beeb saying Truss has confirmed he'll be Charles III. I'd say it's at least even odds that she's had no such direction but hasn't realised there's other possibilities so just ran with it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He didn't need to spend any longer chewing over it. Still, I know a lot of people were expecting George VII - partly as a tribute to the grandfather he never really knew. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

gcreptile 10,966 Posted September 8, 2022 Out of convenience, I think Charles is going to go with King "Prince Charles of Wales" the First, a bit like Pope "John Paul". We'll get used to it. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
