That is one of the prices that one pays for being a member of the inbred
royal family. The monarch is head of the Church of England, which for
years had a problem with divorce. When Elizabeth dies Charles is next in
line for the crown, and then the head of the church that doesn't like
divorce will be a divorced male. His great uncle did the honourable thing
and abdicated, which was a pity because it was an opportunity to have a
pretty queen. This one is pretty rough looking.
