[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Charles promoted William to PoW the second the Queen passed. It’s petty of him to hold out on the Edinburgh title for his brother who by all accounts has served loyally.[/quote]
Why didn’t the Queen give it away after Prince Philip died?[/quote]

+1. It might be too soon after Philip’s death. [/quote]
The title automatically passed to Charles upon Philip's death, as his eldest son, now that the title has merged with the Crown, Charles can create the title again, and pass it on. [/quote]

I don’t think he’ll give it to Edward. He doesn’t like Edward and it goes against his long standing position of slimming down the extra royals. Sophie was trying so hard to get close to the Queen in hopes that she would intervene. I’m guessing that this won’t sway Charles. I think he will not fill it and leave it for William to give to his second son instead. [/quote]
I thought Andrew was the one Charles never liked. Edward has always seemed harmless and the royals will still need him and Sophie.[/quote]

I think there is longstanding animosity between Charles and Andrew that dates back to their childhood, but I think by the time Edward was born Charles basically no longer lived at home and therefore they have less of a brotherly relationship than like that of an uncle and nephew. I don't think he dislikes Edward so much as he does not see him as a core family member.

My wildcard suggestion is that he give it to Anne! Who otherwise doesn't have a real formal role in the family but is well liked and has little else to do with her children now grown.[/quote]
