King Charles III is once again at the center of a new controversy just weeks before his coronation which will take place on May 6 at Westminster Abbey. The ceremony where King Charles III and Camilla Parker are going to become the new monarchs of the United Kingdom is shaping up to be the most important event of the year.
However, the royal family has been in the spotlight of the international media for the last few months because of the scandals that have tainted their reputation. In addition, the country is going through an economic crisis and the cost of living in London has increased exponentially. As a result, the British people are skeptical about the future.
Earlier this month, it was revealed that the royal family is going to spend a fortune on the coronation ceremony. According to several British economists, it was demonstrated through a financial analysis that more than 50% of the British population considered that the coronation should not be financed by the state because it only benefits the royal family.
The sentiment is more prominent among the adult population. However, young people also disapprove of the financing of the event because they believe that the money could be used to help people in need and to help the country overcome the financial crisis.
A source close to the family revealed that Buckingham Palace is aware of the discontent of the British people. As a result, King Charles III is reportedly very concerned about the public’s opinion of him as he is afraid they will not accept him as the legitimate ruler of the country.
