September 9, 20223 yr 2 hours ago, 'stache said: I heard on the radio that Parliament threatened to quit if he followed through with the wedding which would have violated the norm that the monarch be politically neutral. He stated it as the core of why it was a "constitutional" crisis. Abdication was the only real option for him to go through with the marriage. 3 hours ago, Js1 said: Church of England allows marrying after divorce. Plus QE2 gave Charles permission to marry CPB, per the Royal Marriages Act. Plus the approval from the Archbishop of Canterbury. Edward was way different because both the Church said no (he was already King, unlike Charles) and the government was going to resign if he married Wallis Simpson. Plus times are different - it was pretty taboo to marry a twice-divorced woman then, especially while already King, versus Charles marry a divorcee while just a Prince in modern times. 2 hours ago, Mrs Whiggins said: IIRC, there was also something about if the former spouse (of the divorcee) was still living, which in the case of the now King Charles case would be a no. In the recent past with Wallis Simpson, I believe both of her former spouses were still living while she was with Edward and that was problematic from the POV of the Church. So stupid, especially considering the Church of England was founded so a King could divorce his spouse. Edited September 9, 20223 yr by VivaNaranja

Edward VIII was known as David, but decided on Edward VIII. George VI's name was Albert but it was considered too Germanic in 1936 England. I think he should go with Todd... Cuz Todd's cool... Uhh huh huh
