Prince Charles!

Dear Editor, It will be a disaster if they appoint Prince Charles as the next king of UK because he doesn't care his young wife Diana died and married someone who devoiced her own husband to marry him. Prince Charles should follow his great uncle who refused to be the king of UK because he married the sea captain's wife and abdicated to France until he died there. Yours sincerely, Eddie Hwang.

The Commonwealth evolved out of the British Empire in the mid-20th century, and the queen has been its head since her reign began in 1952. Bridal designers talk princess moments and Meghan Markle Charles had long been expected to take on the role even though it is not strictly hereditary. Some people have suggested a non-royal leader would be more appropriate in the 21st century. The monarch – who turns 92 on Saturday – said Thursday that she hoped her son and heir would one day “carry on the important work started by my father in 1949.” Guests dine in the picture gallery at the queen's dinner during the Commonwealth heads of government meeting at Buckingham Palace in London on Thursday.

The position is largely symbolic, but the queen’s commitment has been a major force behind the survival of the Commonwealth. She has visited almost every member country, often multiple times, over her 66-year reign. Charles is a long-time champion of environmental causes, a priority for the Commonwealth. Its members include small island nations in the Caribbean and Pacific that are among the countries most vulnerable to rising seas, fiercer storms and other effects of global climate change.

Britain has tried to use the biennial heads of government meeting to reinvigorate the disparate group that has struggled to carve out a firm place on the world stage. The UK also wants to lay the groundwork for new trade deals with Commonwealth nations after Britain leaves the European Union next year. s
