The Queen is dead, long live the King

Just purely from a historical perspective, there have been something like a dozen monarchies dissolved world wide in the last century. One of the last being King Faud of Egypt in 1953. Those who are desperately poor will always resent those who live an opulent life.
I personally have always found the British monarchy to be a charming modern anachronism , with all their formal traditions. Admittedly there has only been one Queen in my lifetime.
Does anyone else think Charles will abdicate his throne to William sooner than later? Get out of the spotlight and go back to hiding at Balmoral castle? 😄

Charlie recently stated he will devote the rest of his life to the service of his people, or words to that effect. He doesn't appear to be moving all that freely these days though, he looks a little 'doddery', perhaps he won't have as long a life as the Queen or Philip.
