This is what the monarchy will be like after Elizabeth

AndElizabeth IIwho became queen because someone before her gave up the crown, he will never abdicate. All experts agree on this. For example, biographer Andrew Morton, who just published the book The Queen, 70 years as a Queen, is categorical: «It is out of the question. A few more tasks could be passed on to Carlo and William, such as travel. Of course has never been so loved. I doubt he will leave, unless he has serious impediments, as happened to George III. ”

With the crown firmly on her head, leaning on a naturally accepted walking stick, Elizabeth at 96 has a lot of fun showing us what it will be like the monarchy of tomorrow: smiling, modern, not boring at all. In the confusing times we find ourselves in, it’s a pleasure to know.

A taste was given by the images published on the Royal family’s Instagram profile for the Garter Day, celebrations in honor of the Order of the Garter, the oldest knightly order in Great Britain. The novelty of the last edition was the admission in the ranks of the knights of the Duchess of Cornwall: just that Camilla who went from being poorly tolerated shade in the marriage between Carlo and Diana a future queen. A transformation that no one in the past would have ever imagined and witnessed by a photo: the queen, with a purse and cane, a serene gaze, posing between smiling Carlo and Camilla, dressed in sumptuous dark blue velvet cloaks lined with taffeta. The Duchess knows how to show herself happy despite having the demanding felucca with long white feathers on her head. Elizabeth thus wanted to accompany her subjects in the monarchy that she will come, which she will have on the throne a couple for a long time considered clandestine. And never mind if Andrea will not be there, left out of the celebrations of the Order of which he too is a part. That is a royal family that no longer exists.

In the monarchy to come, Carlo and Camilla will be joined by many, beloved, characters. For instance Princess Annawho at 71 years old is the member of the royal family most engaged in official events: 368 in 2021 alone. with her an exclusive relationship of full confidence. This has not always been the case, because her divorce from her first husband, Mark Phillips, did not please Elizabeth. But this story is also part of the past.

Another postcard from the future, the following image, which portrays the counts of Wessex: Edwardperhaps the most shy of the queen’s children, and his consort Sophie. Since Harry and Meghan are gone, they have become more and more important to the sovereign and every time they show themselves in official events they know how to draw smiles for their affable ways. Sophie, blonde, tireless, always energetic, has a special bond with Elizabeth and can even call her “mama”.
