King Charles III dedicated much of his time as Britain’s longest-serving heir-apparent to activism, particularly on environmental issues, prompting speculation about whether his political activity will end following his accession.
“He’s got involved in all sorts of quasi-political areas and expressed his views, and he’s launched charities to further his views, and that has made him pretty unpopular,” said royal biographer Penny Junor.

Which of his many homes will King Charles live in?
There are many perks to being King. Not having to worry about a roof over your head is definitely one of them.
As well as the very well-known castles and palaces, the properties at King Charles III’s disposal include some relatively modest cottages – modest by royal standards, anyway.
Some of these come with the job, others are privately owned by the King himself. There are also buildings belonging to the Duchy of Cornwall, the private estate of the Prince of Wales, which he made his home during his time in the role.
