I don't thing Charles wants to be king. I think our next King will be William.

Yeah I'm sure he will eventually, but he won't be called King Charles, because one got his head chopped off and the other didn't do too well either, If forget what he wants to call himself though.
Camilla will become Queen, Prince Philip didn't become King, because if he did then he would be higher up than the queen and want to take over (male dominance thing), so Queens husbands aren't allowed to be called Kings and only Albert was allowed the title of Kings Consort, but Kings wives become Queens.

Depends when the Queen dies. She has no intention of abdicating and if she lives as long as her mother did, Prince Charles will be almost 80 when she passes on. He may decide to allow the throne to pass straight to Prince William (who will be in his 40s) if this is the case. Then again, he may decide to take the throne because he could, conceivably, live for another 20 years after this himself. I suspect Prince Charles's decision to take the throne will depend on the state of his health when his mother dies. There is, of course, the question of Camilla and the ongoing debate about the legality of his marriage to her...(something to do with the validity of Royal marriages taking place in Register Offices...).

Heavens no, she will have the capacity to not do this for the justifications indexed with assistance from Dart. He may, yet given how lengthy the Queen Mum lived, he will be an previous dodderer even as he does. If HM did (God forbid!) grow to be incapacitated, Charles may grow to be Prince Regent like the Prince of Wales (later George IV) grow to be for the period of George III's later years, in spite of the undeniable fact that it truly is not a similar as king.

The British monarch or Sovereign is the head of state of the United Kingdom and in the British overseas territories. The current British monarchy can trace its line back to the Anglo-Saxon period, but derives its most ancient pedigree by tracing its line through the Kings of Scots. During the ninth century, Wessex came to dominate other kingdoms in England, especially as a result of the extinction of rival lines in England during the First Viking Age, and during the tenth century England was consolidated into a single realm. The English and Scots crowns were united in the person of a single monarch in 1603 when James VI acceded to the throne of England. The kingdoms themselves were joined in an incorporating union in 1707 to form the United Kingdom.

The powers of the monarchy, known as the Royal Prerogative, are still very extensive. Most prerogative powers are exercised not by the monarch personally, but by ministers acting on his or her behalf; examples such as the power to regulate the civil service and the power to issue passports. Some major powers are exercised nominally by the monarch herself, acting on the advice of the Prime Minister and Cabinet, and according to constitutional convention. An example is the power to dissolve Parliament. According to a parliamentary report , "The Crown cannot invent new prerogative powers".

It has long been established in the unwritten Constitution of the United Kingdom that political power is ultimately exercised by the Parliament of the United Kingdom, of which the Sovereign is a non-partisan component, along with the House of Lords and the House of Commons, and by the Prime Minister and Cabinet. Thus, as the modern British monarchy is a constitutional one, the Sovereign's role is in practice limited to non-partisan functions (such as being the Fount of honour). This role has been recognised since the nineteenth century; Walter Bagehot identified the monarchy as the "dignified part" rather than the "efficient part" of government in The English Constitution (1867). In practice, political power is exercised today through Parliament and by the Prime Minister and Cabinet. The Sovereign is the Supreme Governor of the established Church of England, but in practice the spiritual leadership of the Church is the responsibility of the Archbishop of Canterbury.

The present sovereign is Queen Elizabeth II, who has reigned since 6 February 1952. The heir apparent is her eldest son, Prince Charles, Prince of Wales and Duke of Rothesay. The Prince of Wales undertakes various public ceremonial functions, as does the Queen's husband, Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh. There are several other members of Royal Family besides those aforementioned, including the Queen's other children, grandchildren and cousins.

The British monarch is also Head of the Commonwealth, and the same person is also separately monarch of fifteen other Commonwealth Realms; each nation – including the UK – being sovereign and independent of the others.

Maybe but Queen Elizabeth could step down and decide to pass over him and put the crown on Prince William. I heard a long time ago that she was just waiting for him to be of age and mature enough to take it on.

Yes, when his mother dies but Camilla won't become a Queen, as Prince Philipp never became a King.

He's supposed to become King when the Queen dies but then ... Do many people really, really want him to King? And Camilla Queen? I don't think so!

Yes, although considering how long the Queen Mother lived, it could be a while...and he's only in his early 50s
