I would think that if she were going to *retire*, she would have done it by
now. Might as well stick it out to the end at this point.

What about Edward VIII's abdication (1936) - after his involvement with that
woman Wallis Simpson?
"Not a position that you can retire from" is what they said about popes, until
Benedict XVI threw in the towel.

Charles is already 67 or 68, I believe. But the queen will not "retire." Queen
of England is not a position that you can retire from. No one except Edward
VIII in 1936 has done it—and for an American divorcee, of all people!

She looks fairly healthy for a woman in her 90s. She could outlive Prince
Charles with her longevity and deny him the kingship. And would Prince William
get the crown instead if she decides to retire?
