King Charles Faces Calls to Hand Crown to Prince William

King Charles III has faced calls to one day abdicate and pass the throne to Prince William less than a year after his historic coronation.

The monarch, 75, endured years of speculation that the crown would skip him in favor of his more popular son during the later years of Queen Elizabeth II‘s reign.

Sixteen months after becoming king, the abdication of Queen Margrethe II of Denmark has prompted British news outlets to discuss whether he will step down, paving the way for King William and Queen Catherine.

Former U.K. lawmaker Stephen Pound of the Labour Party told normally royalist GB News: “I think it would be a wonderful thing. He would save the monarchy.”

“The monarchy is in a state of crisis at the present time,” he added. “We have had possibly the worst few years since her late Majesty passed on.
