Global news outlets suspect the Monarchy may fall when Queen Elizabeth II dies. The intention of this piece is not to offer a history lesson of The Royal bloodline, rather inspire discussion— will Centry-old, British Monarchy die with the Queen?

For 70 years (February 6, 1952), the entire Earth’s human population, has only ever known one woman to reign over England. Whatever “reigning” means. But, I digress.

Queen Elizabeth has made history in so many ways:

But one bad apple spoils the bunch. Well, that expression really doesn’t seem to apply here. Maybe the opposite- one good apple couldn’t save the bunch? Either way, it seems the scandals connected to the royals could make The Firm crumble.

  • There’s Meghan Markle stealing Prince Charming from grandma and taking him to the States for her own keeping. Source
  • Sprinkle in the divorce of Prince Charles. Source
  • Archie’s skin color speculations. Source
  • Then the ungodly idea that Prince Charles becomes the King of England in his 70s after the world has seen him live and learn under a microscope.

QUESTIONS-

1. Do you feel the British Monarchy will survive the death of Queen Elizabeth II?

2. Why or why not?

I’ll share my feelings in the comments, but I’ll wait to hear from you before sharing my thoughts. Don’t want to spoil the fun!

3. Do you find the Royals fascinating?
