Why are the British so selective about applying their rules of succession?
The current Prince of Wales's great uncle, HM Edward VIII was made to abdicate the throne because he wanted to marry a divorcee with two living ex husbands. The Prince of Wales married Camilla who is a divorcee with a living ex husband. Why isn't he made to give up his succession position?
Also, Camilla's former marriage was in the Roman Catholic church and she was and probably still is Roman Catholic. Why isn't anyone talking about him giving up his succession position?
Also, Charles has said he doesn't want to be defender of the faith. Why isn't anyone saying anything about this?
Thanks for your answers.
