There is not another Monarchy anywhere in
the world that constantly grabs the headlines more than the British
one,. In the past few weeks, that appears to be more true than
ever. The House of Windsor might be the most famous royal house in
the world, but away from public scrutiny and behind closed Palace
doors, there is s a family. And, right now, it’s facing a string of
controversies…
Is it time for The Queen to start taking titles away when scandal hits her family?
18th February 2022
Over the last five years, commentators
and royal watchers everywhere have asked: should The Queen start
taking titles away from royals who err? While it is not a clear cut
case, it is not necessarily as unthinkable as it once was. Many
people have called for the…
I’d love to preface this opinion piece by
telling you that the Princess of Wales has just had a busy day of
engagements, supporting the St John’s Foundation in Bath in the
morning and then hosting a reception in the evening for Team GB
equestrians. I’d love to tell…
Thank you Your Majesty for saying what we have all been thinking - of course Camilla should become Queen
5th February 2022
Finally, rejoice! Ever since Royal
Central first launched in 2012, we have been vocal campaigners for
one particular cause – that Camilla should be afforded the title of
Queen Consort when Charles becomes King. Now, 17 years after the
Prince of Wales and Duchess of Cornwall wed at Windsor, common
sense has finally prevailed – an acceptance within the Royal
Household that Camilla…
What would happen if nearly everything
bad that ever happened in Diana, Princess of Wales’s life—that we
know happened, anyway—happened over the three-day period of
Christmas Eve, Christmas Day and Boxing Day 1991? Spencer would
happen. Fair warning: this…

28th October 2021
On Wednesday, the Duchess of Cornwall
paid tribute to women who lost their lives to violence by
delivering a major speech at the Shameless! Festival – an event
aimed at raising awareness of violence against women and girls. As
part of the visit, Camilla delivered a…
Opinion: Should The Queen be sending a national day message to the North Korean ruler?
15th September 2021
Buckingham Palace confirmed yesterday
that The Queen had sent a message to North Korea as they celebrated
their national holiday. This came after North Korean state
television, KCNA, revealed that Her Majesty had sent a telegram to
the Supreme Leader Kim Jong-un on 7 September. They claimed: “Kim
Jong Un, president of the State Affairs of the Democratic People’s
Republic of Korea…
Around the same time that the UK
introduced new succession laws that allowed girls the same rights
as boys, the country also passed same sex marriage legislation. But
royal laws haven’t caught up with that yet. In the future, as is
the case in most European countries, a…
Those who mocked Prince George's expression after agonising Euros defeat cheapen the meaning of 'the beautiful game'
12th July 2021
Royal Central’s Deputy Editor, Brittani
Barger, calls out a torrent of abuse directed at Prince George
following an agonising defeat for England in the European
Championships final at Wembley on Sunday. After the Euro 2020 final
match on Sunday, I tweeted a photo of…
Do we take Princess Anne for granted?
This could be the shortest opinion piece in history—yes, we
definitely take Princess Anne for granted. Last week, she undertook
11 engagements that were painstakingly detailed by the Royal
Family’s Twitter account, and for that…relatively little fanfare
from the press and from royal watchers. Of course she’d be that
busy, we reason, she’s Princess…
