King Charles III has a lot on his plate at the moment, but he is not showing signs that he is slowing down.
The Monarch is dealing with serious health issues. The situation with his youngest son and daughter-in-law is not simple either.
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are making some big moves, establishing their brand at the junction between royalty and celebrity. After two very successful trips to Nigeria and Columbia, the plan seems to be working.
With Kate Middleton on the sidelines, the British monarchy seems to be looking for a clearer path forward. However, despite all these challenges, King Charles wants the world to know that he is in complete control of the situation.
Moreover, he has decided to address the problems facing the monarchy in an orderly fashion. He tries to deal with one major issue at a time before moving on to the next one.
This week, he signaled that he would get serious with his disgraced brother, Prince Andrew. King Charles wants him out of the Royal Lodge, a 30-bedroom property that is worth over $38 million.
After trying to do this in a peaceful manner, The Sovereign has decided to take things to the next level with an ultimatum set for the fall season.
King Charles has fired ten men from Andrew‘s private security team to get his point across. According to reports, their service will no longer be needed after October.
A person close to The Palace told The Sun on Sunday: “Everyone is speculating this means the Duke will have to leave the Royal Lodge because what other reason could there be to take his security away? It isn’t a secret that the King wants him out.”
King Charles wants to use the mansion to make money for the monarchy. However, since Andrew was caught in the Jeffrey Epstein scandal, he has become a problem for the Royal Family.
Proponents of a strong monarchy are applauding the move and hoping that it will be just the beginning. They want The King to be as tough on Prince and Meghan Markle in the future.
The Sussexes’ quasi-royal tours could serve as an excuse to remove their titles for good. Sources say that his relationship with his grandchildren, Prince Archie and Princess Lilbet, is the only reason why he has not gone nuclear as yet.
However, his love for them might not be enough to stop him in his quest to protect the monarchy.
