Also, I am watching the BBC and the crowd was amazing. Quiet and respectful with shouts of God Save the King. It’s something Americans don’t understand and that fine and preferred.

The culture is changing. This is the Prime Minister of the UK who took office 3 days ago.
Lol. Yea, and? Do you see her saying that now? Do you see the TORIES of all people saying this? She might still personally believe that but it won't be part of her party's platform.
The point is those are the words of the sitting Prime Minister. Which is pretty undeniable.
Sure. She undeniably said those words. I'm just saying that the British monarchy is different than any other monarchy in the world. And if the Spanish monarchy is still standing... the BRF isn't going anywhere any time soon. You're free to believe me or not. I'm just some anonymous internet person.
The Spanish King was forced to abdicate 7 years ago because of all the scandals. Weird choice to put them as some sort of example.
Sometimes I really wonder about people's reading comprehension. That's... exactly what I'm saying.
So basically the only major throne rivaling Britain's is on such shaky ground that a King who was revered after the world wars was forced out and the U.K. just lost the only royal figure which had universal adoration but you'll think they'll just be fine?
Okay.

She had what looked to be a great life, joining her daughter for various public and family events, lots of cocktails, and not working too hard. True, Camilla is not William’s mother and nobody knows how he really feels about her, but he’s too smart to openly disrespect her.

He can kick her out completely unless Charles leaves her one of his properties.
You’re talking about William? He’s not going to do that. They’re quite close now.
And it seems like she and Kate are close too. The kids look at her as a grandmother (and it looks like she really loves them) so I think William will make sure she is taken care of. I actually think he treats her better than her own kids do (not that they don't have a good reason but that's another issue).
I never understood the disdain for Camilla. Did they handle the situation well? No, of course not. But that was years ago and she "destroyed" a marriage that was doomed from the get-go. They're just two people who loved one another and finally said, screw it, we want to be together. Good for them--they seem really happy. And Diana wanted out of royal life anyway. Awful that it ended the way it did but Camilla didn't kill her.
