Take the above gossipy "news" for what it's worth.

Big error by the breathless writer near the bottom of the article regarding feuding between Kate and Camilla over who should succeed the Queen. There can be no "feud".

Charles is the next king if he's still living, and William can't hop over him and move onto the throne upon her demise.

It's the British Law of Succession, by crikey!

They did change the rules to where males are not given preference over females for the throne anymore. Used to be, an older sister was passed over for her younger brother. But now the eldest child, regardless of sex, is next in line for the throne. Not that it will matter for a long time, as the next three in line for the throne happen to be male. But my point is, they changed that rule, so why can’t they change the one saying they can’t skip over Charles?

Elizabeth wouldn’t be queen if her uncle hadn’t abdicated, so Charles could do so. I hope he does.
