The 74-year-old King and 75-year-old Queen Consort face a huge challenge staying relevant to young people
Police barriers have gone up, British flags have been hoisted, and soldiers have conducted late-night rehearsals around Buckingham Palace. But as preparations intensify for Saturday’s coronation of King Charles III, the one thing missing is enthusiasm, especially among young people who have grown increasingly disinterested in the monarchy.
“King Charles has found himself inheriting the crown at a time when support for the monarchy appears as low as ever,” said John Curtice, a pollster and professor of politics at the University of Strathclyde in Glasgow. In a recent report on the monarchy for London-based think tank UK in a Changing Europe, Dr. Curtice added that “the future of the monarchy under King Charles and his heirs will rest on their ability to persuade new generations of the value of the crown.
Mr. Patel has been invited as one of the 2,300 guests in Westminster Abbey by the Canadian branch of the Prince’s Trust, a global charity that has long been associated with King Charles. A Prince’s Trust program helped Mr. Patel land a job as a cook at Toronto’s CN Tower after he came to Canada from India in 2021.
