Why does this surprise anyone? Charles has been a prick all his life. Many of the other family members are pretty bad too, but Charles was Harry (actually, worse than Harry) back in the 1980s and early 1990s. Arrogant, self-centered, whiny and self-pitying.

32 grand a month for a yogi?!? It used to be you get retain one just for the cost of an occasional pic-a-nic basket.

Here we see Andrew with his Yogi. He should pay the bill.

. . . couldn’t believe she was expected to actually work in service to the people as a member of the Royal Family.

In Me-gain's defense, I do have to point out that she was raised in a country where the Democrats (and their RINO enablers) in charge think public service means that the public is supposed to serve them.

He will probably wisely invest it in green startups.

I think the British people should be the ones to decide that.

(I assume you’re an American, and wouldn’t like it if the Brits told you how to run your country.)

What good is it being the king if you can’t enjoy the benefits of being the King?

The British Monarchy, the most expensive soap opera production in western culture.

Well, she’s only 13…. Of course it’s going to cost extra.

No there was a will, but the tax ramifications are set by the government.

I would think if the Royals kept being Royals they would be fine. But Harry and Andrew made choices that are causing them financial grief.

And Andrew…he could rescue disabled children from a sinking and burning school bus…and Great Britain would still hold him in disdain. He should just be quiet and hope he catches a break in his 70’s.

"I think the British people should be the ones to decide that."

Like all posts here, mine is just another opinion, no more, no less and if some Brit wants to opine on how the US should be run, (oh they tried that once...) I am sure they would be met with mixed results as 50% of Americans would welcome vicious, blood thirsty, brain eating aliens rather than see President Trump elected to office.

Dissention among the royal welfare class?

Ridiculous that the Brits continue to tolerate a Royal family where people get to lead a life of opulence at taxpayer expense, just for being born into the right family. And they get to transfer their billion dollar inheritance from “monarch-to-monarch” tax free. Quite laughable, really. Should have been a storm the Bastille day over two centuries ago.

LOL! Very colorful language, Louie; but I fail to see what Trump has to do with this thread.

(And are you suggesting that our most important allies are “vicious, blood thirsty, brain eating aliens”?)

"Did she die without a will?"

She had a Will, but like Prince Phillip's Will, it isn't available to the public. I saw an article a while back that said anyone other than Charles that she left anything to, would have to pay a hefty inheritance tax on it. The new King can "loan" out the Royal Jewels to family members while he's sovereign. That way no one has to pay taxes on them since they're just borrowed.
