Is the Queen prepared for a smooth and joyous coronation of Prince Charles?

Queen Elizabeth

Following her health concerns, Queen Elizabeth II has been urged to relinquish the crown in favour of her oldest son Prince Charles over the last several months.

Daniella Elser, a royal specialist, has urged the Queen to make a “unthinkable” act and abdicate in order for Prince Charles to ascend the throne, adding that “she should resign since she can no longer physically do” her job.

Elser went on to say: “A smooth, joy-filled coronation for King Charles III, one which starred his beaming mother casting a proud eye over proceedings, would be a world away from a coronation tainted by the sadness of her death.”

During a panel called “70 Years of Duty and Friendship” Lady Pamela Hicks, the cousin of the late Duke of Edinburgh, was asked whether she thinks the Queen would ever abdicate her throne, to which Lady Pamela replied: “She will never abdicate.”

There have been speculations and rumours for last few months that the longest-reigning monarch could soon be putting her feet up, and military bigwigs are planning for Prince Charles’ coronation. However, royal fans want to see the Queen as their monarch and pray for her long life.
