What kind of king will rule Britain?​

With the Queen's passing on September 8, Prince Charles automatically became king, even though his official coronation will likely take several months to arrange. This, of course, raises a lot of questions. What kind of king will he be? What will change? What will the British monarchy look like now?

King Charles III​

King Charles decided to keep his name, as his mother did when she became Queen. This is not common in the British royal family. Queen Victoria’s first name, for instance, was Alexandrina. He is now King Charles III.

Charles may change one of his titles​

The Queen's title was “Elizabeth the Second, by the Grace of God, of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, and of Her other Realms and Territories Queen, Head of the Commonwealth, Defender of the Faith.” Charles might change one of the words now that he is king.

Charles may change one of his titles​

It has been speculated that the word “Faith” might be changed to “Faiths,” or “Defender of the Faith” might become “Defender of Faith.”

Charles may change one of his titles​

When questioned about it in an interview with the BBC in 2015, Charles said: “I would rather be seen as ‘Defender of Faith,’ all those years ago, because, as I tried to describe, I mind about the inclusion of other people’s faiths and their freedom to worship in this country. And it’s always seemed to me that, while at the same time being Defender of The Faith, you can also be protector of faiths.”

His coronation might be different​

During the coronation ceremony, the king will take an oath to maintain the Church of England, and will be “anointed, blessed and consecrated by the Archbishop.”

His coronation might be different​

For his coronation, King Charles might also invite leaders of other religions “to be seated prominently” and give readings, according to UCL’s Constitution Unit.

The first two King Charles in England's history met with an unhappy end. Maybe this time will be no different. :biggrin:

He will share the spotlight with his son​

Now that Charles is king, William becomes Duke of Cornwall and Prince of Wales. The new heir to the throne will be under even more scrutiny.

Charles will likely be a more outspoken monarch​

Unlike Queen Elizabeth II, who was a reserved monarch and avoided expressing strong opinions about many topics, Charles is known to be quite the opposite.

Charles will likely be a more outspoken monarch​

Although Charles is known to have strong opinions about a myriad of topics, namely social and environmental issues, things might change slightly now that he is king.

He might be more moderate now​

“The idea somehow that I’m going to go on in exactly the same way, if I have to succeed, is complete nonsense. I do realize that it is a separate exercise being sovereign,” he has said.

He may trim down the monarchy​

It is likely that fewer members of the family will undertake public duties now that Charles is king. He seems to favor more involvement of his direct family, rather than having more people on the payroll.

And that doesn't include his brother​

Given the recent scandals involving Prince Andrew, it is unlikely that he will take an active role in the streamlined monarchy Charles is likely to adopt.
