I do chuckle at the anti Charles views because of his marital affairs. How many have had affairs or relationships outside of their own marriage, how many have family or friends who have and are divorced but they don't cut off relations with? I always say be very careful for what you wish for and it takes two to Tango or Charles's case three.
Don't forget Charles wouldn't even be in the running if his great uncle had been allowed to be King and marry Mrs Simpson. He must have worked hard to get that ban lifted.
Wouldn't have had Liz either. If Edward remained on the the throne, and assuming nothing else changed, by my reckoning when he died in 1972, his brother Henry (oldest surviving brother) would have become King for a couple of years, and we'd now be on King Richard (current Duke of Gloucester).........
Ban was lifted by the CofE in 2002, Good old Mum sorted it out for him.
