Princess Anne Just Slammed King Charles – Admits To Having Bad Ideas

If there’s one person in the royal family who knows how to tell it like it is, it’s most certainly Princess Anne. King Charles’ sister just went on the record to slam the King of England by suggesting his idea of having a “slimmed-down monarchy” just isn’t good. Here’s what you need to know.

Princess Anne Just Slammed King Charles – Admits To Having Bad Ideas

While Princess Anne isn’t someone who gives out interviews very often, she did sit down with Canadian new channel CBC to give her take on the current affairs of the royal family. She said that she’s well aware of the fact that there has been a decline in the support of the royal family in recent years, too.

Princess Anne put it this way, “Because we are in this moment of transition, it’s not unnatural that people are having conversations about the monarchy, and the place of the monarchy. In various countries, Canada included.” She added: “Some of the recent polling is suggesting that there is a drop in the percentage of people who would like to see the monarchy continue. How do you deal with that as a family?”

And while some people might see this as a troubling sign for the royal family, Princess Anne doesn’t. She says that Buckingham Palace doesn’t really need to deal with it. She explained, “Not least of all because it is the monarch, that is the key to this. And the constitution that underpins the monarchy. We as a family see ourselves there to support that role. What we do, we hope, contributes to the monarchy and the way in which it can convey continuity of not just interest, but understanding in the way that people in communities want to live their lives.”

She also said that she doesn’t agree with King Charles’ suggestion that there need to be less people in the monarchy than more. Princess Anne said, “Well, I think the ‘slimmed down’ was said in a day when there were a few more people around. It doesn’t sound like a good idea from where I’m standing. I’m not quite sure what else we can do.”
