Paolo Posted December 29, 2016 Share Posted December 29, 2016 More likely Prince William and Kate to announce birth of THIRD royal baby next year say bookies Depends what they mean by significant. A third baby for WillIam and Kate is not really significant. Barring a tragedy or disaster, it will make little difference to future successions. I would say it could be her health (or Phillip's), or perhaps Charles giving up his right to throne, or maybe Harry getting engaged (not that significant though).

Rab87 Posted December 29, 2016 Author Share Posted December 29, 2016 It could of course be Philip. They have both been suffering heavy colds the past week or so. Seen various things throughout the day, but this was the first tweet I have seen from a reputable source. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not as implausible as watch out for white transit vans abducting kids at Asda stories though. Its all over twitter but fake accounts. Supposedly. Hmmm.

Shanks said no Posted December 29, 2016 Share Posted December 29, 2016 I ventured onto what seemed to be a royal gossip message board. Makes this place seem sensible! Curious story about a royal divorce being openly discussed today and linked to the couple moving back to London and Kensington Palace. Here's one of the more repeatable comments. Well, let's see....Waity had to adapt to royal life, she had to stay in to scrub the floors with her bare hands(claimed to have no servants) and cook Wimpo meals.The she had to hole up with the Mansons because she just can't live without Mommy Dearest, the list of excuses goes on and on and on.

Kate announcing she is pregnant but divorcing William would actually be quite interesting. Phil the Greek keeling over in the background before he can summon the special forces, meanwhile Andy gives the game away with a massive cheeser.

Officially, Charles. Who could pass it on to WillIam. That would make Kate Queen, as when there is a King, there is a Queen (if married), but when there is a Queen, there is no King.

Jambothump Posted December 29, 2016 Share Posted December 29, 2016 I don't believe constitutionally Charles can just casually say he doesn't fancy the king gig and hand it to William. Something along, the line of succession has to be taken and then he can abdicate in favour of William. Quite happy to be corrected or further elaborated on this, enough "royal" experts on here isn't there ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jambothump Posted December 29, 2016 Share Posted December 29, 2016 King Charles the 3rd and 1st has a ring to it. At least he's into saving the planet though and is embarrassed by privilege. Oh I forgot he once sent a helicopter from balmoral to London and back because he forgot his favourite tie. Spike Milligan was right. Think your getting your Charles's confused with your James's and Liz's. Charles 1st and 2nd were both Kings of Scotland as well.

William and Harry, I lke them both, just wish royalty could skip a generation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
