King Charles' affair could cause 'constitutional crisis' at coronation, royal author claims
The coronation of King Charles could cause a "constitutional crisis" because of the fact he is divorced and has previously admitted having an affair while married, a royal author has claimed. Anthony Holden has said that the current coronation oath would need to be changed to account for the fact that the King was unfaithful while married to Princess Diana.
"The late Robert Runcie [the former Archbishop of Canterbury] told me this would require a revision of the coronation oath, which would require a new statute of Parliament. AndSir Vernon Bogdanor, a research professor at King's College London's Centre for British Politics and Government, told the Mail on Sunday: "Charles and Camilla's wedding was followed by a Service of Prayer and Dedication, led by Archbishop Rowan Williams. This surely overrides anything Robert Runcie may or may not have said."
