Queen Elizabeth is marking 70 years on the throne, but Prince Charles has also been taking on more royal duties in preparation for what would be the greatest role of his life.

"[Charles] is the longest-serving Prince of Wales in history," said Bullen. "And this is a job that he’s been preparing for his whole life. But I’ve filmed him, and we’ve got documentaries on True Royalty TV where he says this, that it’s not something that he wishes for because it’s an odd mix to wish for the top job. To be king is to wish for your mother to pass away. No one is going to wish for that.
Bullen noted that Charles has been enjoying carving out his role as future king as he takes on more responsibilities in support of his mother. There’s one question that Charles has been pondering, one that has been on the minds of many senior royals: what will the future of the monarchy look like?
